It is quite possible that Senator Shoup
will take a run out to Idaho-which is an
off-hand way of speaking of 5000 mile
iourney-in a few days to look after his
interests before the legislature. He is a
candidate for reelection, but is being
actively opposed by Representative Sweet.
The latter has made a contribution to
the literature of the campaign in the
shape of letter, which will be printed
IN Idaho today. In this letter, however,

he ever told the Senator that if the state
convention did not nominate him for the
senatorship he would withdraw from the
race. Senator Sboup is certain that he did
make. such statement. Just how the

any person alities should have been

The Augusta News says that, of all the
sections Of the United States sfthe south
has stood the financial stringency better
than any. Today the south is in a more
prosperous condition than the east or
west. There has been less trouble in the
commercial world of the south than in
any portion of the country. The south is
now recognized as having more ma teriaI
advantages than any other section.
Thousands of farmers from the west and
northwest have commenced to realize
That fact, and are wisely moving to the
land of sunshine and almost perennial
spring.

We remark with pleasure the general
agreement that Robert Louis Stevenson
was the best hand at storytelling of all
the romancers who have written in Eng
lish speech for many year. That has
long been our opinion-ever since The
Times, the first Amerincan newspaper to
put any of Stevenson's writing before its
1878. Most of the newspaper writers who
have discussed his work confess their
liking for his way of writing English.
That is encouraging. Robert Louis Ste

Speak on" l said
Lord, yonder in Chiapas there is a
ruined temple that the Antiques built,
and to that temple have come a man
and a woman, his daughter The man
is old and fierce-eyed, a terrible man,
and the girl is beautiful exceedingly.
There in the ruins they have dwelt
these four months and more, and the
man practises the art of medicine, for
he is great doctor, and has wrought
many cures, though he takes no money
in payment, but food only.
Now it CHANGED, lord, that my wife,
whom 1 married but two years ago,
was very sick, SO sick that the village
doctor could do nothing for her.
Therefore, the fame of the old Indian
who dwelt in the ruined temple having
reached me, determined to visit him
and seek his counsel or if possible to
bring him to my village.
when my wife heard Of it, she said
it was of no use, as she saw Death

through forest of oak and fir trees,
heading for a valley that lay at the
base of a solitary mountain peak,
along which ran a stream. Down this
stream we rode for mile or more, for
was searching for a certain pointed
rock that was mentioned in the scroll
as standing by itself on the slope of a
mountain where no trees grew, be-
meath which should be the glen where
in the days of Guatemoc was a great
ceiba tree, that, so said the writing,
overshadowed the mouth of the mine
Riding uphill through dense grove
of oaks. we came presently to the glen
that lay just below the slope Whereon
stood the tall rock.
This must be the place" said,
'but l see no ceiba tree"
Doubtless it has fallen and rotted
since those days." answered the Senior
Strickland. Let us tether the horses
and search
This we did, and the search was long,
for here grasses and ferns grew thick,
but at length / discovered spot where
the trunk of very ancient tree had
rotted in the ground, so that nothing
remained except the outline of its
Circle and some Of the larger roots.
Round about these roots We hunted
desperately for an hour or more, but
without avail, till at length my COM
panion grew weary of the game, and
went to pull up a small glossy-leaved
palm that he had discovered, purpoS-
ing to take it home and set it in his
garden, for he was a great lover of
plants and flowers.
While he was thus engaged, and
toiled among the grasses looking for
the mouth of the mine, which, as [ be-
gan to think, was lost forever, sudden
ly he called out Come here, IgnatiO.
Beneath the roots of this palm is ref
use rock that has been broken with
hammers. 1 believe that this must
have been the platform in front of the
mine. One can see that the ground
was fiat here"
1 came to him, and together we re-
newed our search till at length, by
good luck, I'VE discovered a hole imme-
diately beneath rock large enough
for man to creep into.
"Was this made by a coyote or is it
the mouth of the nline?" the senior
asked.
"That we can only find out by en-
tering it," 1 answered.
Doubtless when they shut down the
mine the antiques would have left
some such place as this to ventilate
the workings. Bring the pickaxe,
senior, and we will soon see.''
For ten minutes or more we labored,
working in soft ground with pick and
spade till we barred the side of tun-
mel, which I examined.
There is no need to trouble further
I said; this rock has been cut with
copper chisels, for here is the green
of the copper. Without doubt we have
found the mouth of the mine. Now
give me the hammer and candles, and

VANITY OF THE ANARCHIST.
A Passion For Sensation and Noto-
riety at Any Cost.
[F'rom the London Spectator

1t is not easy to account for the new
destructiveness. in the present age, of a
passion generally SO harmless and some
times so lovable as that of vanity Usu-
ally. men who are blind to the fact that
the majority of their fellow-creatures are
rot pleased with them. but the new vanity
is not pleased with itself. but only self

power over the world of which it can
ind no trace. The craving appears to be
10 manufacture out of pure emptiness a
Hateful influence over the worlds history
at the least possible cost of effort And
obviously pure destructiveness is the only
solution of that problem. rhe really
harmless vanity does not seek to carry
the fate of the world in It's hand but
only to supply a certain mild and agree
able center of interest to those around it,
The new vanity springs out of a hunger
to WELD power without and correspond
ing mental resources, and that is lust
what the later resources of sci snce have
supplied us with. The vainest idiot, deep
ly dlScontented with his own insight
fcance, if he has the smallest smatterinr
OF chemical science. can become a source
OF enormous danger, and mischief to. the
NCrld in which he lives, and that I'M
fortunately has proved the avenue to a
Few and very powerful temptation When
sreh craving is combined with very lit
tie love of life and a Superabundance Of
self-esteem, the way is at once open for
the career of an anarchist about whom at
least one generation of the western peo-
pies will be compelled to talk. 1t is a
curious feature of Vaillant's diary that he
was evidently delighted with himself for
rot hating the people whom he hoped to
destroy. But why should he have hated
them? They were absolutely essential to
his purpose. Without victims he could
never have made himself the hero of a
far-reaching sensation, and a man does
not generally hate those Who are neces-
Sary to his schemes.
We can only hope that WEAKNESS and
Indifference to life will not spread among
us. 1t is the love of life which is the
best antidote for this kind of morbid
vanity, and it is only among a people who
are losing all joy in life that such crimes
as these of the anarchists and nihilists
are likely to spread. Yet why in a. great
and growing empire like Russia should
this indiffeH nee to life be even. more
widely diff ID than it is among the ex--
hausted volcanic passions Of Central and
Southern Europe?
