one of them. guess he was voting
the Republican ticket before you
were born and it would come with
mighty poor grace for you to crit
else him for honestly and conscien-
ciously deciding this case according
to the law and evidence and under
his oath. What l have said of Judge
jenkins is true of R. w. Campbell
and Dick Skinner, who also honest
ly and conscienciously decided the
case according to law and the evil
dence. 1 say any man who would
ask or expect court to decide
case to the contrary is fast border
ing on anarchy and is not first
class American citizen.
1t will be remembered that a few
weeks ago Fuhr published an insult
ing article attacking my personal
character and integrity. He stated
also that charged him with being
the lnstigator of this contest because
l refused to ''whack up" on the
county printing. 1 did make this
statement and l make it again. For
proof refer the reader to the men,
bers of the Board of County Com
missioners who were in this office on
the afternoon of the official count
and heard him remark that if 1 re-
fused to "whack up" that that left
the matter open for contest. What
else could 1 infer?
Fuhr also informed me that Mr..
Hemple would be willing to divide
the public printing and that he had
told several parties over at Plains
that this is what he would favor If
he got the Office. 1t will be remem-
bered that we made statement to
this effect before election and it was
denied by Mr.. Hempel. A few
weeks ago we were charged with be-
ing liar in regard to the matter.
In conclusion l will say that re-
gret that the costs of the contest are
not taxed up to Fuhr instead of the
third parties on the bond. Fuhr
should certainly go away back and
sit down.

The following petition is being
circulated in the city this week, by
Ed Jaqulns and J. E. George. 1t
will be sent to congress perhaps as
an endorsement to the Bowersock
bill for leasing government land:
PETITION TO THE U. S. CONGRESS,
Praying for the passage of the
Bowersock bills to lease government
lands, in the dry arid belt for graz
ing use.
We, the undersigned petitioners,
most respectfully submit, that West
ern Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska
and large part of Wyoming, Mon
tana and Colorado are SO situated
in climatic conditions, as to make
said territory unfit for agriculture,
except when irrigation is adopted
and that being so expensive, but few
can realize any benefit. Therefore,
the homestead rights on those lands
is detrimental interest instead of
beneficial, in their present condi-
ton they become menace to the
progress of the country.
Believing as we do, with large ex-
perience and undoubted patriotism,
to do the greatest good to the great
est number. We most respectfully
petition and pray, that your Honor
able body provide for the leasing of
said lands for the greatest benefit.
Most respectfully submitted

Whenever the United States supreme
court, on hearing the argument Of
counsel for plaintiff in error, is entirely
satisfied that he has no case, the chief
justice is apt to say to counsel for de-
PENDANT in error that the court does not
care to hear further argument. At one
time Hon. Matthew Carpenter from
Wisconsin was counsel for plaintiff in
error and opened the case. Before he
was through the court was satisfied
that there was nothing in it, and so
when he had concluded and counsel
for defendant in error arose Chief JUS
tice Waite said, "The court does not
care to hear any further argument"
Counsel was little deaf and, al
though noticing that the chief justice
spoke, did not hear what he had said
and, turning to Mr.. Carpenter, who
sat beside him, asked what had been
said.
"Oh, hang it, replied Carpenter in
tones audible to the bench. 'The chief
justice said ne would rather give you
the case than hear you youths

self in a position of expectancy in the
matter of receiving a tip and should
avoid approaching a guest if he sees
him in the act of drawing change from
his pocket. A waiter should never pose
as an object Of pity with view to Sc
curing a tip. If he deserves a tip, he
should let the guest feel within himself
that he deserves it, and if the guest
wishes to give him tip he will usually
manage to catch the walters attention
or leave the tip beside the plate. Should
the waiter receive tip previous to
waiting on the guest, he should leave
it lying on the table and then do his
level best to earn it.

NESTING WOOD DUCKS.
The Courtship Period Is Followed
by a Very Pr0saic Married Life.

The COurtship Period Is Followed
by a Very Prosaic Married Life.
When pair of wood ducks find
water and q hollow tree to suit, little
time is lost In preparing the nest. This
task and the covering Of the eggs are
performed by the female, for, to the
best of my knowledge, the male does
little more than sit around on handy
limbs and look pretty. During the
period of nest building and while the
duck is laying he is the beau ideal of a
handsome and loving cavalier, ever at
tentive and seemingly most anxious as
to her whereabouts should she happen
to get out of his sight. But with the
waning of the honeymoon he seems to
feel rather bored with the whole bust
ness, and gradually he gets clubby-i.
e., wanders from his own fireside and
hunts up another drake or two to help
him loaf away the summer. The busy
little duck keeps her own counsel and
''sits tight" on the dozen or more highly
polished ivorylike eggs crowded to-
gether in bed of soft decayed wood
and down from her breast.
Quite frequently the nest is at the
bottom of a hollow several feet deep,
and no doubt the strong, hooked claws
of the wood duck are special pro-
vision for the oft repeated climbing out
of the hollow.-Edwyn Sandys in Out
