SCENT IN BIRDS.
[Fron Outing.

Animals follow their noses with unerr-
ing instinct. A dog identifies his master
by smelling him. "A goat picks her kid
from an enclosure of hundreds with her
satisfied with her calf until she has
thoroughly smelled it. The feathered
family are so deficient as to smell and
taste that they go anywhere and eat any
thing. l have seen birds contentedly
breeding about slaughter houses and sew
er discharges where the air was so con-
taminated that my horse would turn up
its nose. draw its lips back from its teeth
and groan. and could only secure my
in dfsinfectant bound over my lips and
nostrils- The birds eat unspeakable
things. 1t is nothing to find them raking
the river banks for worms at the very
mouth of a sewer discharge Beyond all
question the birds have sight and the
in one OF these senses. 1t seems compen-
stated for the greater degree in which 1t
possesses the other.

FROM MIR. RESSEGUIE.
Denies Statements About Cause of
His Resignation.

c. F. Resseguie. ex-superintendent OF
the eastern grand division of the Santa
Fe. says that there is no truth in the
report that he was let out by the Santa
Fe because he differed from the man
agement Of the road in the matter OF
expenditures for maintenance. 1t was
stated in the State Journal of Friday
that there was rumor that Mr.. Resse-
guie had endeavored to make money
Tor the road at the expense of mainte-
nance:

can carry it. 1 have enemies-every
man in the position such as 1 held has
and they will gloat over such a state
ment and send it under personal cover
to the general managers for the pur-
pose of hurting me. do not think that
newspapers are justified in publishing
things of this kind. They concern a
mans personal business, and unless
those in authority care to give out the
by the newspapers
1t is unfortunate that railroad officials
do not consider it wise policy to make
frank statements in matters of this

was refused. The State Journal then
printed what information 1t could get
from other sources.

THE article in the State Journal
headed Why Resseguie Left borders
very closely on libel and later on the
result of this publication may make it
necessary on my part to let it stand
trial on that charge in order to bring
out all the facts. What newspapers say
have most important bearing on pub
lie opinion and the person accused has
at the least only a second and imper-
feet hearing and credence. Those who
know of my work and will speak with
out prejudice, know that proper track

THE PRlM AIRY.

The Congressional district com.
mittee has called a primary cleo.
ton for May "a, to nominate a can.
didate for Congress. We publish
the call in full, and there is not
we are sure, a Democrat in the
county who will not read this call
with more than ordinary interest.
For the first time in its history
the county has Democratic can
didate for Congress, and the De-
mocracy of the county is proud of
the fact that this candidate is
known and recognized as one of
the brainiest, brightest and most
loyal Democrats in the country.
One who has won his way to dis
tinction from the humble walks of
life, and achieved eminence in
his party, not through an official
career, but by force of intellect
and unremitting devotion to the
cause. Local pride" sometimes
rallys us to the support of men
who may not measure up to our
ideals, or, perchance, may not fit
the occasion, but in this instance
we have the ideal man, who has
abided in the private ranks until
his paramount fitness has been
demonstrated from every view
point, and we have the occasion
that demands just such a man.
These are the things, rather than
"home pride" that make the APP
preaching primary of especial in
terest to the people of this county.
While Mr.. James resides in this
county, his party in the district
has been the beneficiary of his bril-
liant work as a campaigner, and in
this friendly contest, if services
ably and satisfactorily rendered,
when and where most needed,
count for anything, Ollie James is
a resident of the Old Gibraltar,
rather than any nook or corner
thereof. We would not discount
the claims of other aspirant, but
this is the time for the Democracy
to place its banner in the hands
of the man who defended it so
alertly valliantly and effectively
in the great battles of 1896, 1900
and the intervening years. We
believe the Democracy of the dis
trict has made up its mind to this
effect and will so register its
choice on Saturday, May "a.
