There is something cheeky" OF
course, in this announcement. The self

describes his attitude in plain English
1t is the degradation of politics that
men who want Office virtually auver-
tise themselves as the butcher adyer-
tises that he alone sells the best sau-
sages. But the consumers understand
that this is one OF the harmless tricks
of trade. When men who hunger for
office practice The trick, aad the peo-
pie do not denounce it, il only proves
that. political ideas are very low.
Occasionally the people do rise out
Of this moral stupor, and live up TO
the ideal maxim that the office should
seek the man" The election OF Col
Roosevelt to the office of governor OF
New York is evidence of il. The pessi-
mists Will say, the battle Of San Juan

A CREMATORY NEEDED

Although there IS abundant and po-
Bitiye proof Of the danger to the health
of the living from the present methods
of burial, it cannot be expected that
public opinion will favor cremation for
some time TO Gomez Sentiment being
stronger than reason. Will preserve the
existing custom Of burial however
dangerous it may be. The practice of
boiling v alter in order to kill the
germs Of disease has only prevailed
within a few years. Millions Of hui
man beings have prematurely persisted
by reason of drinking UnwholesOme
water, and the friends OF the dead have
for cen uries cIassed these premature
deaths among the disnensations Of pro-
violence. Whereas, Divine Providence
has in His mysterious way removed
our beloved brother" has been and is,
the customary way of holding the AL
mighty responsible for our own ignor-
ance and neglect.
Are tnere men and women of suffi-
cient influence in this community to
induce the government as a sanitary
measure, to establish a crematory in
which the remains Of those who die
OF contagious diseases may be disposed
OF, or which may be used for the ere
NATION OF the bodies of those who pre-
fer this disposition TO that of burial?
The establishment of such crematory
will be favorably received by the Jap
anese. now the largest part of our
inhabitants Gradually. as the people
become more enlightened tne use of
1t would increase. The time Will come
when this method will be generally
favored. but it VIII come only through
the growth of knowledge and educa-
ton. A crematory in use will be in
itself an education. The people who
are shocked on reading about the IN
sanitary conditions of Havana, are
only a little in advance Of the Cubans
who are indifferent to sanitary reg
uations.
The least that should be done here
is to erect a crematory, even if the
use of ii is not made compulsory.

CANDIDATES. FOR OFFICE

Gov. Bob Taylor of Tennessee on
retiring from office, made the follow
ing striking remarks:
ITO me there is nothing in this
world SO pathetic as a candidate He
is like Il mariner without a compass,
drifting on the tempest-tossed waves
of uncertainty, between the smiling
cliffs of hope and the frowning crags
of fear. He is a walking petition and
a living prayer, he is the pack horse
of public sentiment; he is the drome-
diary of politics. And even if he reaches
the goal Of his ambition, he will soon
feel the beak of the vulture in his
heart and the fang Of the serpent in
his soul
Unwordly orators, and inexperienced
scholars entertain audiences with the
words the Office should seek the
man, and the man should not seek the
office" audiences always respond
cheerfully to this noble sentiment, just
as they respond with approval TO the
noble sentiment ullat honesty is the
best policy But this maxim like sew
eral others that inadvertently appear
regarding riches, in the New Testa-
ment, are lacking in practical value.
If the office must seek the man, what
becomes of the ''masheen?" This prac-
teal device for securing rulers for the
people regards the maxim as one
based upon a superficial knowledge of
II &c nh
malch more favor TIE suggestion of
the tracing stores, ''if you don't see
what you want, ask for tiff you
don't see an offer of office ask for it,.
in an ideal democracy, the people,
after careful deliberation, select such
men for office as have proved them
selves in private or public life to be
men of judgment and integrity. The
Office seeks the man But there are
in every community, however small,
men mo have an inordinate desire for
Office, either for the notoriety it gives
them, Or the profits it returns to them
directly or indirectly. There are many
men educated and capable who refuse
10 hold Office under any circumstances.
The number OF men of this kind is,
unfortunately, increasing every year.
They find the conduct OF political af-
fairs is, as a rule, the dirtiest business
a man can engage in. The offices seek
these men, but without success.
Those whose meat and drink is in
being conspicuous, or is in the eX
citement and manipulations of poll
tical business, do not find the office
ringing the door bell, and asking &C
ceptance OF it. They must so out on
the highways and parade themselves,
ringing bells TO attract notice, and
exhibiting placards on their persons,
like the advertisement Of the Rising
Sun Stove Polish" The candidate
must no. be modest. He must paste
on the walls favorable notices of him
self, filled with warm praise Of him
self, written by his own hand. Eben-

OFFICIAL PAPER OF BAcA COUNTY
Getting Rid of Prairie Dogs.

How to get rid OF prairie dogs Is
IL question that has puzzled the
stocemen for many years. The
destruction caused by these little
pests every year Is almost lncalcu-
liable. 1t Is estimated that in the
pastures in which they abound
they destroy more than fifty per
cent of the grass, and IN some in
stances the damage is almost total.
Various expedients have from
time to time been resorted to, but
none OF them seem to quite answer
the purpose. Cap. J. ID. Mitchell,
manager Of the Sduare and Com
pass ranch, has a receipt for kill
ing prairie dogs, which he has
tried with success and highly rec
ommends. Capt Mitchell used
the receipt on so sections and
freed the land entirely. Some of
his neighbGrs have seen the good
results OF the receipt and say they
intend TO try 1t on their ranges.
Capt. Mitchell desires to bring the
receipt to tile attention OF tic
stockmen who are annoyed by
the dogs and ASKS that the follow
ing bo published: Put INTO il
