Long Words.

In the days of our grandfathers,
when cities were few and far between
in America, and the bulk of our
people were countrymen and villagers,
the spelling school," held in the
winter evenings, was source of much
innocent amusement and interest.
Every leader hunted up lists of long
and unusual words, favorites being
such as "incomprehensibility," "un-
avoidableness," 'syzygy," "phan-
tasmagoria" and "schism." Our
language is not, however, remarkable
for words Of great length, except
those not of Saxon origin. The Ger
man language furnishes a large
number of compounded and polly
syllable words-many more than the
English. It is metaphorically that
we look for long words in our
American speech. Never is long
word" lis a proverb in example. One
of the conundrums of former days
was: What is the longest word in the
English language? Smiles; because
there is mile between the first and
last letters (s-mile-s). Burlington"
is longer word than Smiles" be-
cause, if you spell it out by travelling
over the Burlington Route, you find
you have travelled seven thousand
miles from the beginning at Chicago
to the terminals at Peoria, st. Louis,
st. Paul, Minneapolis, Kansas City,
Omaha, st. Joseph, Denver, Dead
wood, Cheyenne and Billings. For

Our candidate for senator, E. J,
Jones, has been extending his acquain-
lance in the counties comprising this
senatorial district, and we learn with
encouraging and good effect. Much
as Mr.. Jones would like to make an
extended canvas and personally meet
every voter in this his home county,
the limited time at his disposal and
the fact that there are three other
counties in this district to be visited.
not only makes it impossible for him
to make house to house canvas, but
necessarily causes him to be absent
himself from his own county in order
that he may personally conduct his
campaign in counties where he is not
SO well known. We are assured that
the people of Stevens county, who
have SO long and favorably known
Mr. Jones, do not ask or expect
personal solicitation on his part, but
having every confidence in his always
frank, candid and positive position
on important issues and knowing his
loyalty to Stevens county's interests,
they prefer he should continue the
valiant work in neighboring counties.

It will be noted that the name of
Harvey L. Smith appears as can
didate from this, the 5th commissioner
district. 1t was not supposed at the
time of holding the conventions that
vacancy would occur in this district
this fall, nor would it, had not the
present incumbent Mr.. Dye been ap-
pointed to Fill vacancy caused by
the death of III. Hutchins. The law
prescribes that vacancy filed by ap-
pointment, continues only until the
next general election, and hence it
changed the date of expiration of
terms in this district. AS Mr.. Dye
absolutely declined denomination,
Mr.. II. L. Smiths name was put on
the ticket by petition.

from source, always consider friend
ly, the knock is felt all the more
keenly. 1t is not surprising there
fore that there should be such a
change of political sentiment down in
old Dixie, for not since the war, has
the south had such kick in the
vicinity of the finances, as the
democratic congress gave them when
the Wilson bill was enacted. Coming
as it did and from such a source,
no one can blame the southerns for
feeling that they have been treated
shamefully and by the party that
owes it's existence to southern political
support.

The peoples party legislative COM
mittee have issued a challenge for a
joint debate between E. J. Jones and
D. P. ONeill, to be held in several
towns of the district, on the last days
of the month. 1t is not difficult to
see through the purpose of this
challenge, for its real object is to
draw Mr.. Jones' away from his sue
cessful canvas,and use his popularity
to get audiences that his opponent is
unable to obtain. Fertile as are the
populist committee in the tricks and
schemes of campaining, this last
move is too transparent, for not only
will Mr.. Jones' refuse to cease his
effective campaign work, but he will
decline to act as drawing card for
his opponent. Mr.. Jones' canvas is
