POLITICAL

Isn't it rather amusing the way the
Democrats have of electing United
States senators from other political
parties? Adams. Thomas Hughes and
Maupin have all been faitful Demo-
cras for years, Int were all turned
down to elect Tom Patterson, who
had not been Democrat. even in
name, for more than six weeks when
elected. Now the Democrats propose
to repeat that performance in the case
of Senaor Teller, who only last week
entered the Democratic stock yard.
Young men who are inclined to he
Democrats should observe that their
chances for office are much better in
any other party. The Republicans
never elect anybody but Republicans
and the Democrats usually go into
the Republican or some other party
for men to fill their best places.
Senator Teller announces that he
is now and henceforth Democrat.
He says that he was formerly Demo-
crat and has through all these years
of holding Republican jobs, been
strongly in sympathy with the Demo-
cratic party. He states plainly that
he would have gone into the Demo-
cratic party in '96, but for the fact
that his political managers thought
it would be better to place him as a
decoy duck at the head of the Silver
Republicans party. Now that there
is no other party that will elect him
to office he desires to he full fiedged
Democrat.
Will Orange. formerly of Silver
Cliff, hut now of Pueblo. will be
candidate for the nomination for
state regent, to succeed himself. Mr..
Orange was elected to that place six
years ago on the fusion ticket, as
Silver Republican. 1t is understood
he has made good officer and will
probably be nominated at the Re-
publican convention.
Democrats who are interested in
party affairs should by all means read
their official paper, Elk Parte, OF

HUNTERS HAIR STOOD UP.
The Cause Was Game In the Dark He
Wasn't Looking For.

The following tale comes from a
party of Philadelphia sportsmen, who
vOuch for its truthfulness. To get to
their destination, which was one of
the numerous hunting camps dotting
the wooded region of Maine, they
were compelled after leaving the train
to rough It" the rest of the way, stop
ping over night at an old inn. After
reaching the inn they stored their
blankets and cunning accountrements
in an outside shed.
While the members of the party
were inside being entertained by the
very joyial host an Italian with a
trained bear arrived, and, unknown
to the hunters, tied his travelling com
panion in the building where their
things we're stored, while he sought
rest in the attic of the inn.
Later in the evening one of the party
was attacked by violent cramps, Just
as he was telling one of the big game
stories for which he was famous. It
so happened that one of the party
had a bottle Of Jamaica ginger in a
coat which hung with the things out.

few minutes later very much fright

the room, heralded by loud cries for
help.
When able to talk coherently the
man informed his friends that upon
going to the shed he felt around in
the dark, and happened to feel what
appeared to be a buffalo robe where
their things should have been
Naturally, being in a hurry, he gave
it a vicious kick to get it out of the
way. and was more than surprised
to find it jump up. with a noise that
to him resembled thunder What he
had taken for buffalo robe was Mr.
Bruin, who resented being disturbed
In his sleep. The animal succeeded
in giving the Philadelphia a good
scare. The stomach-ache was forgot

who just previous to meeting the bear
in the dark had been detailing what a
hero he had proved in the presence
of a pack of wolves.

One Cent Stores.

When the five and ten-cent stores
were established and proved a success
IL was supposed that the lowest limit
had been reached. But the one-cent
store has become an established insti-
tuition The New York Times thus
describes it:
1t might surprise the average per-
son to see the variety of useful and
ornamental articles that can be sold
for a cent The counters and win
dows of the one-cent stores are liter
ally packed with goods OF every CON
ceivable variety, and when neatly
spread ont they make a rather tempt
ing display.
Huge signs are displayed on every
side announcing that every article
costs Just one cent. What a feast
to the boys with only a penny to
spend
Pennies make the dollars, and
there is plenty of profit in the bust
ness" explained salesgirl in one of
the small stores. 1--WE take in a good
many thousand pennies every day anG
our store is small and expenses light.
After school hours We can't handle the
things fast enough to satisfy our little
customers.
1.-THE chief thing is to get variety
of stock We do this because manu-
facturers are catering more and more
to this small novelty trade. Thous-
ands of little novelties can be made
of wood and tin to sell at cent each.
It is becoming easier every year to get
more variety of stock, and consequent
ly it is easier to attract trade"
