The "EASY RUNNING
HOUSEHOLD"

The "EASY-RUNNING HOUSEHOLD" is very
simple in construction. therefore more easily
operated, and less liable to get out of order
than any other machine. 1t is also faster
sewer, as it makes more stitches to each
revolution of the wheel than any other vi
brating shuttle machine. 1t possesses more
space under arm than any other family sew
ing machine, which enables the operator to
sew bulky fabrics, and is self threading, ex-
cepting the eyelct in the neede.bar. The
tensions are automatic. which enables the
operator to sew from the thinnest to the
thckest fabric without change of tensions.
Our new efthreading shuttle possesses a
new device, which insures an even and
elastic tension that is not obtained in any
other machine.

few to Truckee to join in the celebra-
tions Of praise to Old Glory.
There were a number Of picnics in
the groves along the Truckee, where
the hours were pleasantly whiled away.

Last Saturday evening the ladies' of
the G. |. A. to the B. of L. E. and
their families were the guests Of Mr..
and Mrs. c. A. Abbay at their pleasant
home on Front street.
The early part Of the evening was
spent on the cool, inviting lawn where
entertaining conversation was indulged
in.
Misses Jennie Marshall, Lilah Abbay
Mabel Evans, Gene Griswold and
others favored those present with vocal
and instrumental music which was very
pleasing.
At the right time when one enjoys

few serve as good.
The evening was pleasant social
affair and all guests were more than
delighted and praised the host and

PLATT YET ANGRY.
Insists on Knowing IF Roosevelt
Is Whites Friend.

st. Louis, Dec. IA special to the
Republic from Washington says:
Senator Thomas c. Platt. as a first
step toward exacting satisfaction from
William Allen White of Kansas and
McClure's Magazine for an article
which, he says, reflects on his personal
character, has called at the White
House and asked President Roosevelt if
he vas a close friend of Mr.. White and
if he approved the article that has Of
Tended the Senator. The New York
senator had read in newspapers, whose
editors occupy confidential relations
with Mr.. Roosevelt, that Mr. White was
not only In intimate friend of the pres
ident and his biographer, but, also, the
court of final appeal" in all matters
of patronage in Kansas. He wanted to
know if this were true.
The president said that he knew Mr..
White, but not to the intimate degree
hat had been suggested. He said that
Mr.. White was interested in politics, as
well as in the niceties of literature, but
he hastened to deny that he had given
Mr.. White carte blanche to settle Kan
sas patronage disputes for him or au-
thority to lead others to think that he
had been favored.
The president said hat Mr.. White
some time ago had asked him to give
him letters of to both Sen
atOr Plat and Senator Hanna. This he
declined to do, and he is now rather
glad he did.
Senator Plat asked the president if
he approved Mr.. Whites article. Mr..
Roosevelt replied that he had not read
it, but promised to do so at once and
give an opinion the next time the sem
ator went to the White House.
Senator P1att was asked whether his
interview with the president was salts
factory.
MY talks with the president are al
ways satisfactory" he replied II
called to ask him if this man White
was to him what is reported. OF course
no man who is Whites friend, after
he has written. can be my friend.
The president said that he had not
read the attack OF me. He will read
it and I know that he will fail to ap-
prove it. I told the president what I
was going to do. The Republic an
nounced my intentions correctly.
DETERMINED TO SUE.
st intend to bring this man and this
magazine to book If it is the last act
of my life. What form the actions will
take and what courts they will be
holiday recess I will go to New York
on Thursday after the adjournment and
will give the matter my full attention"
The visit of Senator Plat to Presi-
dent Roosevelt today can hardly be
called a parallel to the one which. ac-
ator objects, was paid by the easy
boss to Governor Roosevelt IN one
memorable occasion. That other visit,
it is related, was the finish of the fight
ment for his old friend Payn. It had
been a bitter fight, in the course of
which PIatt had used threats and
Roosevelt had smiled toothfully." The
final interview was apparently closed.
Plat got nearly to h door; then
and breeches- The opposition col
lapsed."
