Our attention has been called to
the agitation in the Topeka papers in
regard TO politics in the Sixth district.
As we view it the discussion is per-
fectly harmless. 1t may bring to the
surface the names of few obscure
nobodies who have no standing among
the people at home. This little bit
of notoriety any man can get who has
the price and is willing to pay for
having his name .mentioned' in a
Topeka paper as candidate for any
thing from president TO road oYerseer.
The question whether Mr. Reeder will
be retired or not has not been decided
by the people and will not pc until
the proper time. just now they are
too busy and the weather is too hot
for political discussion Naturally
the people will be suspicious of the
men who have to go to Topeka to find
out whether they are candidates or
not and to fix their states. Russell

Unlucky men are all bout alike
They go through life's fitful fever
cropping and hoping, but never find
ing success or happiness. They have
eyes sharp and keen to look into the
root OF things, but which also dream
dreams and see visions; they have hot
human blood; they love or hate in no
halfway measure. To each OF them :,
too, comes at times--no matter what
the business or pursuit may be by
which they strive to push their way
among men and to grow rich-a sud-
den disgust OF it, heartfelt and real,
contempt for the work and for its
successes. They dream OF something
before them better than money or
Office, and they try to clutch at it. So
they go through life, cropping for sue
cess with one hand and for their dream
with the other, and-they lose both.
We must chose either God or Mammon
as master and keep faith with him
if we mean to succeed.
ii men were as anxious to do right
as. they are to get their rights the
world would be righted.
Didn't we tell you. The carload Of
Superior drills we got for this springs

The public pressure biought to
bear upon congress to take up the
question of western irrigation as n
public improvement OF arid lands has
been exceedingly strong. The question
seems to have forced itself to the front
OF its own volition. For a subject
which in the early winter it was not
proposed to push upon congress, owing
to the shortness OF the session, it has
seemed to come in for a very full share
OF discussion, under one heading and
another, at almost every turn OF that
body. The country is getting to
know something about the possibili-
ties OF national irrigation, and con-
gress itself has learned that it is one OF
the foremost questions pressing for
solution and that it must soon be
taken up and passed upon.

D.DID ALL HE COULD TO SAVE
 ISLANDER
Capt John Irving Explains the Difficulties the Master of
 the Steamer Had to Contend With

|, The Islander being smashed at the bot tom of any or an Of these compartments and within a mile Of the land. and per haps two miles Of a beach-what was the best course Co pursue?
 While the ship was under weigh the boats could not be lowered without spill Ing the people in the sea. SO that Che first thing Co be done was Co ascertain whether there wns time Co beach or not.
 To make tho nearest shore. which was rocky. the boat must have been turned shorcward About two miles astern, if thc ship was on her course. was Hllda Point. which ls situated just beyond the nearest smooth beach to the place where thc ship went down.
 The turn thc ship would have to make Co reach the beach near IIilda Point would be but a continuation Of the turn which must have been necessarily made Co reach the rocky shore
 Tho proper thing Co do in this case would bc Co turn toward the rocky beach. run shorcward and vecr towards thc smooth beach. steering obllqucly go that if the smooth beach could not Doe reached the boat could be turned a-starboard and strike thc nearest land.
 The account of the accident as given by the enginteer. shows the boiler room must have been puncturcd. This would make lt hopeless Co do aught but keep the ship stun and man the boats.
 And lf the bulkhend and thc chamber intervening between it and tho boiler room were filling rapidly. even if the boller-room was Intact. the boat would sink forward and rise astern, SO that there would be little water loft in which the ruddcr might catch purchase.
 In that cose. also. only a forwarl course lf any designated course at all. could bc taken. That the boat would rise rapidly astern and even bear down thc bow is certain. because there is a large air compartment astcrn. contain Ing nothing but the propcllng and steer Ing gear which runs through it. The buoyancy Of this air chamber would bee come greater as the bow submerged. and lt would. if both chambers were badly punctured. soon bring the water up through Che hatchway and into the boil cr- room.
 No one understanding these conditions can blame Capt Foot for the management of the boat lt was an accident In many respects Ike that Of thc sinking of the Rio de Janoiro In san Francisco harbor
 Capt. Irving says that the Islander was used as an excursion boat Co Alaska dur. ing the summers of 'S9 and 20. and was active In thc northern passenger traffic during the Klondllle rush. She was h staunch boat. but iackod some of tho good safe features in vogue In the latest marine architecture The Amur Tees and Spokane al have double bottoms and it ls Co be expected that all boats hereafter built for coastlng traffic win bc made in that manner
