nected and incomplete This will be

StTated that fact by circumnayigation.
And Magellan might have failed but
for the previous work OF Vespucius.
The latter had explored the Atlantic
coast Of South America farther south
than any of his predecessors and the
south Atlantic ocean eastward to the
islands of South Georgia. nearly to the
parallel OF Cape Horn.
BY this journey Vespucius demon
strated with a considerable degree of
certainty that the strait. which had
for some years been looked for, lead
ing to the elusive unknown sea that
bounded the eastern coast of Asia, was
not to be found through the new lands
of the west north of 54 degrees south
at all events. The mouth of the ANA
zon. the bays of Rio Janeiro and of the
La Plata had been explored and were
found to contain fresh water, so that
through none of these could an en-.
trance to the unknown sea on the far
ther west be found.

COOKING HINTS.

Chocolate is greatly improved by
adding a teaspoonful Of strong coffee
just before serving.
In adding -four to gravies, always
use a -four dredger and there will be
no Jumps in the gravy.
Some hOusekeepers vary the flavor of
potato salad by boiling the potatoes for
it in stock, or. if it is more convenient,
in the soup kettle.
In using sour milk the proportion for
gingerbread, biscuits, cake or almost
any dough or batter is one teaspoon of
baking soda to two cups of sour milk.
If making a gelatin dessert on hot
or wet day, add little more gelatin
than the recipe requires, half as much
again if you wish to mold fruit into
the jelly.
Eggs a la ranigote is made by boil
ing eggs three and half minutes, roll

tatinty that he is growing desperate.
He quoted the statement of the
Washington Post, as published in The
Citizen of yesterday, to the effect that
both Democrats and Republicans of
Oklahoma are fearful lest tAat Terri
tory go Democratic this fall, and thus
endanger the chances of Statehood.
He read the quotation with glee,
having thus-to his own satisfaction
proven that the Territories must go
Republican this fall to insure State
hood

perhaps, but unquestionably wisely
refrained from quoting the balance of

planation of the situation.
If. either Oklahoma, New Mexico or
Arizona-the first two Republican and
the latter Democratic-alter their pres
ent status, the status under which an
agreement was reached in the United
States Senate which brings those Ter
ritories within sight or the goal, the
cause of Statehood will be lost.

would be built under such laws? How
much of blight would smite every
element of prosperity? There is no
better evidence of the spirit and pur-
pose of the Democratic party of Ari-

menace all corporate interests, than

torial convention held at Tucson"
All, there's the idea. The Repub-
licans will do whatever is wanted, but
the things which were wanted two
years ago, and for the failure to pass

The Teacher and the Shirt;

There is a teacher in a school in a
town in New Jersey who has Brooklyn
relatives, since it is her birthplace and
was her residence until she wandered
into the wilds of Jersey to train the
youthful savage in the way he should
educationally GO Among her scholars
was one boy. q Tommy Russell. who
was we'll nigh incorrigible. One day,
patience exhausted, the teacher caught
the lad and gave him shaking that
made his teeth rattle In their sockets.
More, so vigorous was her clutch that
she tore his shirt. The next morning
the lad appeared with a neat bundle.

The friends of union lbbor, however.

True, too true. dear Post. 1t oc-
ours to us that the literary managers
of the Republican central committee
ought to forbid Editor Hughes the use
of the union label. The principle that
label typiies is not only foreign to the
principles of the Republican party.
and contrary to that party's official ut
terances in the columns of the Star,
but. as the Post says, does not accord
with the violent anti-union rawlings
contributed, during a recent contro-
versy, by the rats employed on the

Boys who live in seaport towns are

If they can do it quickly and accurate
ly, they are fine sailors and may grow
up to be the captain of a four master.
If they miss a point or eau only do it
slowly, they are landlubbers and will
never see blue water. TO box the COM
pass means TO name all the points in

Can you do it?
If needle is drawn q few times over
the ends of horseshoe ma gnet, it be-
comes magnetized. Push such Il mag
netiZed needle through a small cork.
Place the cork in a bowl of water, TAX
ing pains to see that the cork when it
floats ON the water will carry the nee
die in a horizontal position or ION an
even keel" Another way is to cut
about three inches from a hollow straw
,oh &c, to Iov1,ona1oN orH
to push the needle inside the straw.
The straw will float and carry the nee
die. Now observe what happens. The
floating needle will slowly swing round
till it points north and south. The
straw will behave in the same way.
Push it in any other direction, and the
moment it is free it swings back again.
We do not know who first observed
the fact that floating magnetiZed nee
die will point to the north. Nor do we
know precisely when or where some
unknown inventor used this idea to
make a compass. All we know is that
the Chinese made and used compasses
more than 1000 years ago.
When men began, perhaps 10000
years ago. to sail upon the water, they
| used marks upon the shore to guide
them on their way. Long years after
| they observed that a certain star kept
at all times the same place in the sky,
and they used this pole star as a guide
in steering their ships. Today steam
ship starting down the Hudson river
! for Europe is guided by the pilot, and
he uses the buoys, beacons and other
| guide marks to steer the ship down the
bay. OFF Sandy Hook he gives up the
ship to the captain, who instructs the
helmsman to steer northeast by east,
east by north or whatever course he
selects. and the helmsman, watching
the compass, keeps the ship headed in
| that tdirection.-DallasN News.

FOR LIVE STOCK STATISTICS.

One OF the questions considered of
vital interest to the stockmen of the
country is the passage by Congress
of law authorizing the gathering of
statistics OF the live stock industry of
the United States and the establish
ment of bureau of live stock statis-
tics in connection with the Depart
ment Of Census that was authorized
by the last Congress.
. There can be no question of the ne
cessity of reliable statistics regarding
the live stock in this country. Next
to the bread supply, the meat sup
ply is of most Importance, and every
year demonstrates the need of statis-
ties that can be depended upon. Such
a bureau after securing a reliable basis
upon which to work could very easily
keep close estimate of the changes
taking place, which would be of the
greatest value to trade and commerce
as we1l as to stock raisArs.
At present almost nothing is known
in regard to the supply and demand
for meat cattle. The country might
be on the verge of a shortage and no
one could say such a shortage exists
until it was actually here The mar
kets are completely controlled foutside
of the price fixed by the meat trust)
by the visible supply actually on the
market from day to day, and farmers
may be selling their stock at panic
prices when the actual conditions do
not justify those prices.
1t can readily be seen by any fair
minded citizen that it is but simple
matter of justice to the stock interests
of the country that they have the
same attention from the government
that grain, cotton and manufactures
have, there being more than eight
million farmers and stock raisers in
terested representing an invested cap
itaI of $4,000, 100000. Such a law would
be a protection to the producer against

A POSSIBLE EXPLANATION.

The Republicans have chosen their
bed Let them lie in it But they
must lie straight, or they will be talked
about in uncompl1mentary terms.
From the rostrum and in the press
they make the assertion boastfully that
''the Republican party is the friend OF
the laboring man''-that @@the Republi-
can candidates, if elected, will do the
things the laboring people want" To
be sure, they refrain from going into
details as to what those things are, but
they will do what the 1aboring people
want
The only cIew which gives any prom
ise that they know what the laborlng
people want was furnished by Candf-
date Morrison in his speech at the
opera house last night. his argument
that the Democrats can not be depend
ed upon to perform the things their
platform specifically pledges them to,
was supported by the statement that
the last Legislative Assembly, which
was Democratic, failed to pass an
eight-hour law or mine inspector
bill, which were wanted by the
miners"
This indicates that Mr. Morrison and
the Republican party realize that these
things-which the Democratic plat
form pledges it's nominees to place
upon the statute books-are wanted
by the laboring people"
1t is greatly regretted that despite
this seeming fund of knowledge,
neither the Republican platform nor
the Republican orators have word
to say concerning the character of
the wonders which will be performed
for the laboring people in the event of
Republican successes.
To be sure, the Republicans will do
what is necessary, and what the labor
ing people want, but what will it be?
Notwithstanding Mr.. Morrison's at
tempt TO encourage the Wage-earnerS
and sympathizers to vote for him, it Is
evident that the Republicans do not
deem necessary" or wanted an
eight-hour workday or q mine in
spector law, which were wanted SO Sc
riously when Democratic legislature
failed to pass those measures.

ing:
