spent lots of money with doctors and

me but to no purpose, until my stten-

WE LIKE HIS TYLE

James Barton Adams in Denver Post.
When Theodore is in our midst we'll load
him with applause,
His welcome will be honest goods devoid of
WarpS and flaws;
Wen greet him with a grip of hand more
eloquent than speech
And show him that we think he is a presi-
presidential peach.
There'n be no bending of the knee, no
fawning at his feet,
No maids of matchless beauty strewing
flowers in the street,
But every face will flash on him an honest
western smile
In honest western way because we like his
western style.
He once was reckoned one of US before he
fell from grace,
The western sun has burned the tan into
his fearless face,
The western breezes Oft have sung to him
their lullabtes
As in his blanket bed he lay beneath the
western skies.
The western storms have often tried his
royal western nerve
But never from their rudest blasts has he
been known to swerve,
And when he hits our camping ground the
people, rank and file,
Will greet him with a whOop because we
like his western style.
Our western eyes will look behind that
mask he has toSwear
Called presidential dignity" n see the
comrade there,
And through that mask we hope to see
within his eyes the blaze
or western fire that spanked there back in
his western days.
No party will be recognized in welcoming
our guest,
But all will bunch together and will do
their level best
To make a Tecord-breaker of our hearty
welcome while
He spreads his blankets In our camp, be-
cause we Ike his style.

DIVIDE AND RULE.

In the three-cornered mayoralty con-
test the allied corporations are playing
their old tactics of divide and rule. At
the outset their plan of campaign was
to capture both the democratic and re-
publican primaries, dictate the candi-
dates of both parties and let the people
have their choice between them. But
the unexpected often happens. The re-
pulse of the corporation m~ercenaries at
the republican primaries and the fail
ure Of the conspiracy to purchase a
nomination for the preferred corpora
ton candidate compelled a change Of
program.
The bolt Of the defeated minority, pre-
cipitated under pretense of foul play by
the corporate bellwethers, opened the
way for a wedge by which the corpora
ton bosses hope to divide the people,
and rivet the corporation yoke upon
their necks for the next three years.
But the people Of Omaha are waking
up. They know that the railroads and
the frFnchised corporations have pooled
issues for the election of a mayor and
council that will do their bidding ever
at the sacrifice of the public interest.
The paramount issue of the campaign
is equitable taxation. The people know
that e corporation tool In the mayors
chair and corporation stool pigeons in
the council will make equitable taxa
ton impossible. They know that they
cannot hope for equitable assessment
with a purchaseable or plant Board Of
Review. They know that the Board
Of Review can raise or lower assess
ments and has it within its power to
decrease the assessments Of corpora
tions by millions, and correspondence
increase the burdens Of the small home
owner, the merchant and manufacturer.
They know that the mayor appoints the
Board Of Review subject to conirma.
ton by the council and they know fur,
thermore that a corporation owned
council can nullify the work Of the
Board of Review by lowering it's as.
sessments Of corporate property and
raising the assessment Of property
owned by individuals and firms.
1t is patent to all men who know any,

Importance of irrigation.


The forests should be- preserved to pro-
tect the water sources and the lumber sup
ply Of the future; the mining laws should
be improved to give greater encouragement
and protection to prospectors and mining
operators and greater revenue to the recla-
nation fund; the grazing districts should
be put under control in order that the
remaining grasses may not be destroyed
and that barren ranges may be restored.
The present situation is a serious menace
to the meat supply Of the nation.
In the reclamation fund, created by the
national irrigation act. there is now about
$40, 900, 900, which is being drawn upon to
meet the cost of surveys and investigations
now being conducted. In some districts of
Utah, Colorado, California, Arizona and
other states, where favorable reservoir To-
cations are found. the people are planning
to shape local laws and conditions TO meet
the demands OF government irrigation ON
cials.
