There was treasured tradition in the
club that when the editors ran short oi
verse for the little little, but oh, my !.
magazine published by the club as a
vent for its superfiuous ideas, the editor
who was generally counted a poet,
caught and incarcerated the business
manager. The purpose OF this punish.
ment became evident when the maya
zine appeared. Then it transpired that
the business manager-a prosaic, though
uncommon fellow-was more successful
in bringing the Muse to time in an emer-
gency than others with whose wooing
she was surfeited. Out Of this fact
arose the tradition. for it was felt that
something was needed to explain the
circumstance that the business manager,
being business manager, contributed
such delightful verse to the pages of his
little magazine. All members Of the
club cultivated the habit of writing only
under compulsion Of some sort: it was
believed that specially vigorous com
pulsion must be behind the poetic out.
Groupings Of the business manager.
You can easily see how it came about,
then, that the burden of furnishing the
verses gradually fell chiefly upon the
business manager. He seemed to thrive
on the ordeal. Then he had the temerity,
finally, to put forth a '.little book OF
verse'-the club always favored that
on doubtless by some unex-
pected and unasked compliments and
big worded remarks of Great Folks.
From now on you may be sure that the
Of the club will have more
'aith than ever in the poetry by com
pulsion doctrine. for the little book is a
credit to the - club, not to speak Of
he business manager.

Mr.. Thompson in the State Press.
The candidacy OF y. E. Thompson for
the senate this winter is one OF the most
serious problems that coafronts the re-
publican party Of the state. Whatever
may be urged in Thompson's favor by
his friends, it is unquestionsbly fact
that. with the possible exception Of Lam
caster county. his candidacy is received
with fore6odings in every portion OF the
state. He is man in whom the masses
have no confidence and his ambitions
are not regarded as laudable. His i'm.
mense wealth and manifest willingness
to spend it to accomplish his purposes
are, OF course. elements to be feared in
politics. While it is not at Gil probable
that with republican majority in the
next legislature, Mr.. Thompson could
ever be elected senator. yet the possibil-
ity gives rise to fear in the minds of the
people, and that condition will be
worked for all it is worth by the oppo-
sition. 1t will enter into the fall cam
paign in spite OF our efforts to eide-track
it, and the sooner 1t is met and obscured
by an overwhelming flood Of public
sentiment the better it will be for the
party and the state. Nebraska wants
no Montana experience in her senatorial
confess. and prompt and emphatic
declaration against Mr.. Thompson's
by republicans generally may
90 long way towards averting it,

D. E. Thompson won the contest in
Lancaster county, hands down, against
all Corners. Having done this much, it
now behooves him to accept the propo-
sition of Frank M. Hall to arbitrate the
question as to whether he really at
tempted to sell out to the populists for
q mess Of. pottage and a bale of hay.
Mr.. Halls deposit of $1,000 which says
he did, cannot be ignored. Republicans
outside Of Lincoln are disposed 10 insist
that Mr.. Thompson clear himself in
some satisfactory manner Of the horri-
BILE suspicion under which he has
'abored ever since the day Hayward was
chosen. before he comes to them implor.
ing their assistance. He is manifestly
missing bis opportunity by not meeting
Mr.. Hall as poposed. Lay on Macduff.
