POLITICS IN THE SORTGwEST

The feeling in regard to the result
OF the elections in the new states this
fall has changed decidedly among
Democrats. A short time ago poiiti-
cal quidnuncs en- the Democratic side
were loud in their predictions that at
Last and possibly three Of the con-
gressmen to be elected In the new
states would be Democratic. Two or
three OF the Democratic members of
the house have travelled through the
territories of Montana and Dakota
during the present summer and have
talked very freely upon their return
east.
This visit ha; succeeded in coDvinc-
lHg these and some of their col
leagues that there was some hope for
the Democratic party in the north
west. Even Sunset Cox saw bright
prospects while in the Yellowstone
region. The magnificent scenery
raised the spirits and caused him to
believe that his party might win a
seat or two as the result of the cleo
tions to be held in October, but with
in the last few weeks news have been
OF an entirely different nature.
Several Democratic senator's have
looked the situation over carefully
from this point and their conclusions
are that there is very little chance
in fact, mono at ALI for carrying any
one of the five new congressional dis
tricts.
Senator Pugh, of Alabama, who ia
a careful observer states as his posi-
tive opinion that there is not the
faintsst hope for the Democrats eth
er in Washington or Montana and he
adds that the five districts will be as
surely Republican in October as Kan
sas was last fall.

Belford's magazine asks whence
came the capital with which the Brit
ish are buying up our breweries, etc.
Chiefly from the profits of English
manufacturers in the palmy days
when all the rest of the world was
foolish enough to buy British goods
instead of making them at home.
What Belford's is pleased to regard
IS 9 sign of present prosperity, the
inVestment of British capital in
America, is nothing of the kind. It
is on the contrary a very pronounced
symptom of dangerous disease
the growing inability of the English
to find profitable investments in their
own country, owing to the increasing
reluctance of other nations to remain
dependent of Great Britain for man
ufactursd products.

and it IS 10 be hoped that there is
sufficient harmony in this baliwick
to elect the ticket by an unprecedent-
ed majority, The disgruntled coli
dition of affairs in King county

while there is dissatisfaction among
the leading Republicans of King
county the chances of party success
IN that quarter is growing less. II
a similar feeling should exist here
We cannot expect anything but a

1t is not often that 4 woman goes
to the gollows. Usually when a wo-
man is sentenced to death, pressure
is brought to bear in order to secnre
executive clemeacy on the ground
that it is bad enough to hang man,
let alone a woman. Some one has
said shat the worst possible use to
which man can be put to is to hang
man. And no doubt there Is a good
deal OF truth in the remark. But if
it does no good to the man who is
hanged 1t serves as an example and
q deterrent to others. In some OF
the states Of the Union, capital pun
ishment has been abolished, and
there are those who take the view
that capital punishment should be
abolished everywhere. 1t rarely hap
pens that woman has to be hanged
IL Canada. The case of Phoebe
Cambell, who was hanged in London,
Ont, many years ago for the murder
OF her husband, was a notable exam
pie. Three months ago a woman
was hanged in Edinburg for killing
two children, and woman in New
York state had a narrow escape from
the gallOws. But one of the most
painful hanging cases in which a wo-
man was the victim was that which
occurred in England a few years ago,
when the rope worked SO badly that
it was necessary to seize hold of the
woman's feet and pull hard on her
before the sentence of the law could
be carried out. As a rule when wo-
men are convicted of murder it ends
in their being sent to penitentiary
for life, tue exceptions being in cases
in which the murder was deliberately
premeditated and deliberately car
ried out. The first move in the work
Of saving Mrs. Maybrick from the
galiows is the application for stay,
of sentence. Justice is pretty sure
in England.

Diamonds have been held in such
light esteem lately that burglars have
passed them by with disgust, but the
announcement of the formation of a
diamond syndicate for the purpose of
advancing prices seems to have had
an instaneously favorable effect, for
we note that large diamond rob-
berry took place in Boston on Friday
night only a few hours after the pub
iicatlon Of the fact that diamond
trust had been formed in Europe.

Jefferson county republicans should
look we'll to their Legislative ticket.
None but able, acceptable men should
be put forward-men whom the peo-
pie will be sure to elect. There Is
good reason to believe that the demo
Gratis will concentrate all their efforts
in trying to elect as many of their
political faith to the Legislature as
possible.
