Already the Chinese expedition has
cost the country over $10,0OO,0OO, and
for what? Our citizens were rescued
several weeks ago. The troops are not
to be withdrawn except to the coast,
and Mckinley hopes that reelection
will leave him free to take part In the
partitioning Of China. The people,
however, understand this latest devel-

The country Is now threatened with

Hanna would have given good big

But the operators are so secure In their

the slightest concession to the men,
They callously told Hanna they be-

without trouble, and they really didn't

President Mckinley will return to

Mckinley realizes that Bryan is max

The drift is plainly Democratic.
Something must be done to stem the
tide. President Mckinley won't make
any votes by his front porch speeches,
because he will only talk to those al

will feel better to be busy. 1t Is very

Democratic state committee, has re-
ceved a letter from w. j. Bryan,
urging all Democrats to give their
cordial support to ex-senator Fred 7.

"Hon K. | Perky,
''Chairman State Central Com

"My Dear Mr.. Perky:
81 am in receipt of a letter from
Mr.. Towne, informing me of his ex-
perience in Idaho and the general
situation there. On the whole, be
seems to be well satisfied with the
outlook. However, quite to my sur
prise, he stated that there are few
democrats that are not giving their
cordial support to Dubois for United
States senator, and that there is sus-
picion in some quarters that certain
democrats would like to bring about
a situation that might be so handled
as to elect some democrat to the SEN
ate
81 sincerely hope that Mr.. Towne
NAV be mistaken in this regard.
Surely, every consideration, both OF
good faith and good politics, urges
the loyal support of Senator Du-
bois by every democrat in the state
of Idaho, and the success of his
candidacy for the senate He is the
regular nominee Of the democratic
state convention, and no loyal demo
cratic in Idaho can consistently re
fure to support him, but, in addition
to this plain obligation, the interes
of the party in Idaho, and in thu
country at large, requires that Du
bois be returned to the Senate i
possible. He is very strong man
and he is perfectly loyal to Demo
cratic principles. He is one OF tn
foremost leaders in movement tina
means much for the success and fu
fuse of the democratic party.

dirrerent SHADES or pubic opinion.
But where sharp differences of opin-
ion or of personal choice exists within
the membership of a political party
and recourse to a new party Is not
adopted, 1t is plain that methods of
reaching conclusion must be taken
and these, by custom, are clearly de-
fined. If the difference is over the
choice for nominee for an elective Of
flee the party primary is utilized and
the choice of the largest number is
legally entitled to have his name ap-
pear on the official ballot as the regu-
lar party nominee. The law does not
compel those who in the primaries
favored minority candidates to vote
at the ensuing election for the plural
itys choice, but it recognizes the right
of a plurality to determine party Gre
dentials, and there is a widely OBJ
served custom of viewing unfavorably
the citizen who, after participating in
a primary and being fairly outvoted,
thereupon proceeds to attack the plu-
rality's choice.
Where the Office to be filled is cleo
tive by legislature, as in the case of
the United States senatoTship, the law
is entirely silent as to preliminary
methods of arriving at a concurrence
of party support, but long established
custom has ordained the party caucns,

Ants Sense of Smell.

Ants recognize one another easily.
When an ant enters colony which Is
not its own, it is put to death almost i'm
mediately. A German naturalist has
discovered that it is by the sense of smell
that this subtle recognition takes place.
If an ant touches water. il invariably
is attacked by its sisters on its return to
the colony, the water having removed
from the ant the special property on
which depended the recognition.
Experiment proved the statement
Some ants were crushed, and with the
mess an ant was smeared and placed in n
colony. If the ant had the odor of this
colony, it was we'll received; If not, it
was attacked at once.
An ant washed with alcohol at 30 de-
grees was returned to its nest and was
attacked as n stranger.
On the contrary, put at one side 81
hours before being returned to the colony,
1t was welcomed, that length Of time be-
ing enough for the restoration of its fam
ily odor.
