John L. Webster, the noted Omaha
lawyer, is presented by the Nebraska
republican state convention as can
didate for the nomination of vice-pres-
ident. They, of course, expect Iowa
to assist them. We we'll remember
when Iowa was asking for the nomi-
nation of Allison for president that
Nebraska was not neighborly in the
matter, so we are free from obligations
to them. 1t is said by the friends of
the Nebraska man that he is an able
and excellent lawyer and would make
splendid presiding officer for the
senate. The position of vice president
has risen in the estimation of the
country until most people concede that
a candidate for that place should. be
equipped with experience in public life
and that he should have proven abil-
ity as a statesman. The possibilities
of the place are too great to allow it
to be given to one inexperienced in
national politics and craftsmanship.

An automatic suburban mail deliv-
cry apparatus has been invented by a
farmer in Madison county and the pre-
diction is made that the time is not
far distant when they will supercede r..
F. d. carriers. The apparatus can be
attached to ordinary telephone poles
and works by endless chain, power be-
ing furnished by gasoline engine, and
mail being left automatically at each
dwelling. Bad roads, cold or hot
weather or blizzard would not inter-
fere with this kind of mail carrier.
Verify, we are living in an age of sur
prises and of advancement.

'"The congregation of hogs" is the
way the ready writer who writes up
the state fair for the RegisterLeader
insists on speaking of the large num-
Der of porkers on exhibition at, the
state fair this week. Iowa thinks a
great deal of her hogs but when we
see several hundred of them together
that doesn't give us the privilege to
apply to them the term we reserve to
mankind when they meet for a more
solemn purpose than attending the
state fair. Call them a crowd, gang
or a concourse even if you don't want
to call them bunch or a drove, but
don't call them congregation.

One night last week the citizens OF
Guthrie Center met to consider what
was best to do concerning the bad
railroad time schedule the RockIsland
is now giving them. They appointed
a committee to bringsheir grievances
to the attention of the Rock Island
officials. If the committee should run
out of grievances they might secure
some from neighboring towns if they
would agree to be careful of them and
to return them. ...... ..,.

The FOntanelle Observer. as w

The Fontanelle Observer, as well as
several other of our exchanges, is
surely laboring under wrong impress
sion as to when the biennial election
amendment will come before the peo-
pie. The Observer said last week that
it would "come before the people at
general election again this year." The
joint resolution, introduced by Sena-
ator Harper, has been before but one
legislature, and is referred to the CON-
ing general assembly, consequently
can not be submitted to the people I'M
til the fall of 1904. The discussion
now running in the press on this sub
ject is, therefore, to some extent pre-
mature,

Long to Fight Yanger.

Louie Long. the featherweight who
gave Herrera, the Mexican, such a sur
prise at Vancouver last week, has re-
ceired an offer to meet Benny Yam
ger at Salt Lake in November. Long
has accepted. The Oakland boy prov
ed in his battle with Herrera that he
is much better man than he has
been given credit for. The amount Of
punishment he administered and its
effect on Herrera after the fight prov
ed con"lusively that Long will be ii
dangerous man for in the featherweght
class to meet. The manner in which
he broke through the Mexican's almost
invincible guard shows plainly that he
has plenty of steam behind his blows
and places him on much higher scale
tlan Kid Broad, who failed even to
reach the MeNican's face. Reports
from the ringside. as well as those
that came through the press, state
the battle was the fastest ever seen
in that section of the country and
that Herrera had IA shade the worst Of
the milling.

AT NEWPORT
There IS
SPORT

Harry Zealand came in from New
port last night and brings with him
glowing account of what he calls
the "sportiest town in the north
west" According to Harry there were
things doing down there last Saturday
night on the occasion of the opening
of Nick Browns new vaudeville thea.
ter.
Two fast boxing matches were the
card. The principal event was 60
scheduled for 20 rounds between Frank
DIETER known as Bunker) Hill and
"Kid" Smith of Chicago. The fight
was fast and furious up to the fourth
round. Hill wasn't lulled into dream
land, however, as the sports would
have liked to see. The men were
mixing in the SWEETEST kind of style
and the bunch at the ringside We're
having a glorious time of when the
two men came out of tangle and
Hill quit. He claimed that the lad
from the windy city had fouled him
with blow in the groin when he was
starting one of his long backwoods
wallops. Nick Brown. who was ref
cree, couldn't see where Hill had been
fouled, and the crowd agreed with him
when he gave the decision to Smith.
Two preliminares were put on to get
the bunch properly worked up for the
real duck soup, which was the event of
the evening.
The first preliminary was "not so
many all at once" but the second was
one of those goes that delegate from
Fistianavlle delights to see and wishes
this life was one continual round of.
Two kids, O'Toole and Jameson, fur
nished the sport. In the fourth round
Jameson threw his knee and could
not continue the mill. Referee Jack
Clark called draw.
Nick Brown has planned another
card for his theater and is correspond
ing with some good artists.

BEST

A formidable combination of foot
ball players will enter the field for
practice tomorrow, when the newly or
ganzed team of the Spokane Amateur
Athletic club gets together for the
first workouts. Among them are some
of the best men who have been devel
oped in the northwest during the past
few years. All the players are enthu-
siastic of the outlook. Captain j. +.
Griffith thinks he has the finest team
in the country around him this year.
There are others who think the same.
At any rate, they are an aggregation
that will give any of the big college
teams in these parts a rafting good
run for the long end of the score. Be
fore the season is over if present plans
do not miscarry they will have games
with Pullman, Whitman, Idaho and
several other big teams.
Another team is being organized
that promises to even line up on paper
better than the S. A. A. G. boys
they are the Company II. players and
among them are some of the fastest
developed anywhere. 1t is claimed
they number among them some of the
big eastern players which in seasons past
did good work with their colleges. Har-
old Dove will captain this team.

HIGH 'LEvEN
WILL PLAY
.C0LFAx

The High school football team will
play the Colfax High school at Nata-
forum park next Saturday afternoon
and the best game the high school
has yet played is anticipated by the
enthusiasts. 1t will be the first time
that the High school team has not
gone out of its class to get a game.
and to Judge by the way the bovs
have shown in the games against the
colleges they should take the measure
of the Coliax players. The ColfaX
team is said to be a good one. The
local team is improving steadily under
the watchful eye of Coach Hooper.
On Tuesday and Wednesday games
have been arranged between the High
school team and the team from the
Blair business college. Without a
doubt this will be the game of the
season. An intense rivalry prevails
between the two teams and considera-
Bile jealousy exists on the part of the
High school players on account of the
Bairs defeating the Davenport team
In practice game between the Blairs
and the High school the Blairs played
them a tie after but four days of prac
tice under the guidance of Coach
Strong. 1t speaks well for the work
of the coach
Some changes will be noticed in the
lineup of the High school on Saturday
owing to the injury Of Gregory, who
has been playing halfback. In the
game with Lewiston last week he frac
tured one of the bones in his yerte
brac and will remain out of the game
the balance of the season Samuels
will take the position at halfback and
Matthews will probably go to tackle.

Dan Patch
TO Do

Dan Patch wears the crown of cham
pion PAGER of the world. He electri-
fled the light harness horse world Mt
Memphis by pacing n mile in the phe-
nomenal time of 1850 IA. three quar-
ters of a second faster than the mark
set by Prince Alert, and 23-4 seconds
faster than his own previous record.
Yesterday he paced the half mile in
the remarkable time of SO fiat, new
record for half mile.
Myron Mclienry, the horses driver,
was particularly pleased by the perfor-
nance, and is only one man in thou
sand who saw the trial who does not
believe the great son of Joe Patchen
has done his best.
Gle will go in l55 before long"
said McHenry after the figures for the
mile were set up. dan was not in
the least distressed after his trial. /
rated him nicely, and when called on
for the work down the stretch he re-
sponded gamely and truly. The time
by quarters, when he made the new
mile mark was 20 seconds for the first
20 for the second, 20 IA for the third
and 20 for the last, showing plainly
that he was as good at the finish as
at the start
McHenry's claim is believed, for It
will be remembered that last August,
when he placed the worlds record ut
l:59, the driver said Dan Patch would
go in l:57 or better before the season
was over. The horse has been kept in
good shape and in his wonderful trial
every condition favored him. The track
was fast and hardly a breeze blew.

"How did I learn to swim?" said

Get Chilly Reception.

What chilly reception fighters get
in the northwest now. A moral wave
has evidently got out of it's element
someway and mistaken the fighting
game for something where there's an
opportunity to butt in. The game in
Spokane has been dead for so long that
lovers of the game have about forgot
ten what it looks like. AT Portland
(Ore,) the game has been discontinued
owing to somebody butting in who
had no license to. Then Seattle, not
at any time to be outdone by Portland,
rose up and told fstiana to go back,
way back. Tacoma followed suit,

To make the journey from Elmra
(Mich.) to Spokane, distance of over
2400 miles, Mr.. Fordham used 2S7 gal
Ions of gasoline at an expense Of
S70.Sl. His first supply was bought for
IA cents gallon, but when he reached
some parts of Montana he was decided
lv lucky to get any at all, even if he
did have to pay 50 cents gallon for
it.
The machine he used was a Water

it all he has a cover and on the road
it very much resembles large buggy.
The tires were never changed, but are
completely worn out by the hard jour
ney over rocks and everything else
that would tend to ruin them.
