The State election takes place
next Wednesday and promises to be OF
more than ordinary interest. In years
past when Republican nomination was
equivalent 10 an election the polling
places on the first Wednesday in April
were not crowded with voters. and the
papers chronicled quiet and uneveu,ful
elections. But the days of Republican
walk-overs are past, and now every inch
of ground has to be stubbornly fought.
This state of things, though not pleasing
to the party that wGs so long almost
undisputed master of the situation. is we
think. good thing for the state Too
long continuance in power is not dcsir-
able. 1t makes the leaders arrogant and
forgetful of the interests of the people
they are supposed to serve. The con
ventions have been held and both parties
have presented their candidates for
public inspection and criticism. Taft
and Lapham, the Republican standard
bearers, are respectable men. if not
of their lives in the accumulation of
property, and now in their declining
years each in the possession of very COM
Portable fortune, they have at last the
leisure and inclination to give some
attention TO politics. Neither of these
men have received any training TO fit
them for the positions they have been
selected by their party to occupy.
Neither of the candidates is anything of
an orator and the legislative experience
of each is confined to session or 80 of
the General Assembly. Naturally the
suspicion arises that they are selected 10y
the party leaders on account of their
wealth. just as Littlefeld. Bourn and
Wetmore were selected. People are
beginning to be a little tired of these
money tickets. The Democrats have
wisely renominated Gov. Davis. The
best friends of the present governor can.
not claim that he is a man of er,raordin.
ary ability. but IT is almost universally
conceded that he has made n good 90.
ecutive. His reputation as an honest.
well meaning and fairly able man has
not suffered during his year in office.
The governor of Rhode Island has NO,
many chances TO greatly Distinguishing
himself. but we think that Davis has
made more creditable showing than
some Of his predecessors. OF Smith, the
nominee for lieutenant governor, little
can be said except that he is reputable
and wealthy man. How much his nomi.

BETRAYED by q Scar.

Jake Kinney, of San Francisco, was in his
time the finest short card player alive, and
when he sat down in poker game he simply
turned into wood. His face had no more ex-
preston in it than a brick, and, although he
would bet his last dollar on ten high in just
the same sing song voice that he would on
four aces, it was very hard TO catch him
blufing. Finally he got into an argument
with Los Angeles man, and the other fellow
cut him in the cheek with knife When the
wound healed it left a scar under his eye
about the size of dime, and that scar be-
came a bulletin board for Jake's heart 1t
was naturally white, but when he got the
least bit worked up, although he wouldn't
show it otherwise, it would turn pinker and
pinEer, and finally bright red. Old gamblers
used to say that they knew just what shade it
took for bobtailed Gush, and just how near
salmon colo.ed for four kings, OF course
that was laying it on thick, but there is no
question bat that the scar broke him up as u
card player and drove him out of the busi-
