4 New Issue in the West.

\ New Issue IN the " est
From the Denver News.
The senate committee on territories
has eleven members. By a majority of
one vote the committee has sheIved
the bill providing for the admission to
statehood of New Mexico, Arizona and
Oklahoma, and it is unlikely that any
action will be taken on the bill by this
congress.
The six members of the committee
who opposed the admission of the ter
ritOries were:
Beveri Ige, republican, of Indiana.
Dillingham;, republican, of Vermont.
Nelson, republican, Of Minnesota.
Bard, republican, of California.
Burnham, republican, Of New Hamp-
shire.
Kean, republican, of New jersey.
The five members of the committee
who favored the admission of the ter
ritories were:
Quay, republican, of Pennsylvania.
Bate, democrat, Of Tennessee.
Heitfeld, democrat, Of Idaho.
Bailey, democrat, of Texas.
Patterson, democrat, of Colorado.
As Mr.. Bard comes from the extreme
west-frOm California-and the senti-
ment of his state favOrs the admission
of the territories, it is probable that
his constituents will criticise him as
he deserves for causing the vote of
California to deprive a million western
Americans of the benefits of statehood
1t was unfortunate for the west when
the republican party succeeded in
carrying California
Mr.. Quay voted against the wishes
of the controlling element of his party,
being actuated thereto in part by the
conviction of some of his close friends
that the demands of the territories are
just.
The territories have been denied
statehood because the eastern and do
minant wing Of the republican party is
opposed to increase of the political
power of the west.

Who holds the key TO heaven IN mis- handl

The sunburnt men who labOred as they sang
The playing children and the laughing girls,
The priests. secure IN Gods security
Did God give answer when the air was flannel
When those who still withstOOd the rain Of FIRE
Tottered upon the sanctuary steps
Crying, Good God, have mercyF' as they fell
Stiied among the heaps Of those who prayed
And heard no answer
So they fell Of old
When Sodom burned. and those in turtue prayed
To some strange idols whom the Jews denied;
Thus BabylOn's accursed as they died
Raised s1pplicatiOn 70 their gods OF brass
And Roms's patricians called TO Fulcan's power
When old Vesuvius down his whey sides
Shed LIQUID horror on effete POmpeii-
Nay, Nature shall not answer for her crimes.
| In her long work she reckO1s not with Death;
Islands and cities vanish IN a night
Worlds born Of fire by fire must pass away,
And man at prayer is smitten while he prays.

Did Not Kow He Was Present

At a recent session of the German
Reichstag an ABSENT minded member,
Herr Wiehman, created no little amuse-
ment. He was calling the roll, and upon
reaching his own name he paused for
response. Naturally none came. Then
he called the name more loudly, waited
a few seconds and roared it out at the
top Of his voice. The laughter Of mis-
colleagues finally aroused him to a sense
of the righteousness Of his act, and be
Joined in the general hilarity.

4 Correction.


DR.. J. B. Dykes and his brother were
at the peoples party congressional
convention at Beloit, and worked har-
mOniously and enthusiastically for the
nomination of a fusion candidate for
congress in the Sixth district. They
even pronounced themselves favorable
to a democratic candidate.
Some three months ago The Repub-
lie published a statement that DR..
Dykes and his brother had gone into
the republican party. Our informant,
who was returning from Topeka, after
the pOpulist state conference in Febru-
airy, stated that he "had it from their
own mouth" in a personal converse
ton and sharp controversy had with
them some time before. On this infor-
nation the statement was published.
The Republic has always followed
the only honorable rule for any paper
to follow, that having made any incor-
rect or untrue statement, from mistak-
en- information, 1t is ever ready and
gladly willing to make amends honor
able" and correct the statement. The
Republic recalls the previously pub
lished statement, and takes pleasure
in saying that the doctor and his
brother are both still enthusiastic
POpulists.

saw manipulation may be. On this &C.
count we put in one layer, fit closely
as possible, then shave over the upper
surface of all the cakes with q car
penter's adj. The shavings of ice are
swept into the crevices between cakes.
When freezing cold, little water is
sprinkled over the whole surface to
cement the layer solidly together.
AS each layer is completed the saw
dust should be filled in around the sides
level with the top and solidly tamped
down. Allow no sawdust to remain
on top of the various layers until the
icehouse is filled. The figure shows the
sixth layer in and ready for the saw
dust. Ice is preserved by being packed
away from the air. AS hot weather
comes on the ice will settle some. Be
sure to keep the sawdust tamped down
around the sides frequently during
early summer and see that no air holes
form.
When the ice is all packed in, cover
with 10 to Is inches of sawdust. Leave
the gables open more or less to allow
free circulation of air over the ice. I
hope that this description, with sketch,
of our own successful harvesting and
storing of ice in a cheap pole frame
icehouse will encourage many farmers
to decide to have some ice next season,
and may they thoroughly enjoy for the
first time the cooling benefits which
accrue to the fortunate possessors of
the CONCEALED fluid

WOOD FOR THE STOVE.
PEELED to Do Her Cooking Under
Trying Conditions.

Nothing is more exasperating to a
woman than burning wet, soggy
wood. On cold morning to have
the house filled with smoke instead
Of heat sets all things wrong. Then
many q loaf of bread is indigestible
and unwholesome because the wood
was green and wouldn't enable the
cook to control the heat of the oven,
giving too slow fire, and then,
when not required, too hot fire.
These are phases of burning green
wood with which the most of the
farmers wives are only too "a
miliar.
Green wood is so per cent. heavier
than dry wood because of the excess
Of moisture. This of course increases
the expense of hauling, if green
rather than dry wood is used, for
only half as much of the green wood
:an be hauled on load as of dry
wood. Don't argue that the horses,
boys and yourself are not very busy
and your time and labor don't count.
Such logic added TO rooms filled
with smoke is what will leave you in
old age alone on the farm. Time
and muscles are many times the
farmers only capital and should
never be unwisely expended.
Then, aside from increased expense
In hauling, so per cent. of the heat
is consumed in evaporating the wa
ter in the green wood. Now figure
how much more swinging of the ak
is necessary if you have provided
green wood for fuel this winter. It
takes good business push and a
knowledge of farm economics to cut
wood and cord it up to dry out for
another seasons use. This is an
other evidence that energy and
knowledge are as large factors in
success on the farm as in other lines.

Yield from Rye Pasture.

From a two-acre hog lot sown to
rye in the fall and pastured through
the winter and early spring man
threshed 46 bushels of rye. To get a

should not be grazed on very long in
the spring or when it is ready to
shoot upward. A grain crop that
