KANSAS is still in need OF men
to harvest her great wheat crop.
The farmers who were in the
path of the flood are still clean
ing up; but the rest of the agri-
culturists of the state have rip
ened enough grain to make the
states crop for the year partake
of the character of q record
breaker. 1t is too bad, however,
that they cannot secure men to
do the work i'll the harvest fields.
Ii they would send to Boise they
might get two or three if they
would agree to give them half.
These are Of the class that are
indisposed to work unless they

OF their toll, and If they could
find somebody willing to divide
equally they might be willing to
exercise their muscles. tx

THERE appears to h a v c
been a prcmonition that a
democratic mayor and a re-
publican council would be
elected in Boise. Just prior
to the election the Evening
Capital News appeared, warn
ing the voters Of the folly Of
electing a republican council
with James H. Hawley. The
Clipper came out with articles
clearly presaging the defeat
of James A. Pinney but urg-
ing the republicans to stand
by their ticket. The election
came, and a democratic may
or and a republican council
have been placed in power to
buck each other at every turn
in the road.

them space at $3.50 to So per

tor in an endeavor to show
his knowledge, discloses his
ignorance. The TRIBUNE de

him make the most of it. AS
regards the value of this spec
ie Of advertising, it is COM
mon. Descriptive booklets
are frequently issued in cities
and one can scarcely pick up
a daily newspaper without
finding a writeup Of some
kind. In a special edition Of
a newspaper where hundreds
of extra copies are issued,
this kind of advertising is Of
the greatest value. The News
states that mo legitimate pa
per will enter into scheme to
pull the leg of its patrons in
this way" When the various
writeups are previously sub
mitted to the patrons and the
price quoted, and are accept
ed by them and published
with their consent, where, in
the name Of reason, is there a
lack of legitimate action on
the part of the newspaper? Is
it not a part of the business

Trouble Brewing for COIOrado's Sem
atoriRI Election


Denver, Col, Jan. 4.-The senatorial
situation in Colorado is becoming de-
oidedly complicated, and should pre-
sent declared plans be carried out the
contest over the selection of a sue
cessor to Senator Henry M. Teller,
which will begin in earnest with the
converting of the Legislature on We'd
nesday next, will, to say the least, be
exciting and more than likely spectac-
ular. The solid support of the Demo-
cratic wing of the Legislature for
Senator Teller is still maintained,
while the Republican strength is par
celed out among four candidates, of
whom ex-senator e. o. Wolcott is the
most conspicuous
At meeting of the Democratic
state Central Committee the matter of
the threat of the Republican majority
in the House to unseat the entire
Arapahoe Democratic delegation was
discussed and resolutions adopted to
the effect that 1t is the right and duty
of the Senate to utilize the same con-
stitutional right and authority and re-
store the equilibrium. The majority in
the Senate being Democratic, should
their threat TO meet revolution with
revolution. be carried OUT, IL would
bring about condition rendering a
selection Of a senator impossible. With
q solid Democratic Senate it is said
n deadlock could be maintained TO the
end.
1t had practically been agreed that
on next Tuesday night caucus of the
Republican members of the House
would be held to select a speaker. but
it develops that several members have
refused to be bound by the action of
the leaders, stating that they were
nominated and elected on an anti-Wol-
colt pledge, and they fear that a eau
Gus selection OF a speaker would be
made to appear as a Wolcott victory.
For this reason they will, it is said, re-
main away Tuesday night These re-
calcitrants number seventeen, enough
to defeat any action the caucus might
agree to.

Several newspapers to-day in their
yearly political reviews devote much
attention to Venezuela and the Mon
roe doctrine.
The Vossische Zeitung, Independent
Liberal, regards Germany's proceed
lngs against Venezuela as entirely
within the limits of international law.
Whoever has a claim against an
other" says this journal, tries to col
lect it whether they be private indi-
viduals or nations. If anybody dis
putes our right to compel payment of
the Venezuelan claims, we must ask
that person If he be willing to pay the
debt himself. or give guarantees there
for. The United States is unwilling TO
take this step and should not hinder
Germany from pursuing the course
that is deemed expedient."

cons disastrous failure, no European
nation will seek to establish itself in
the western hemisphere.

last night. There are seven cases for
aggravated assault charged against

being assault with intent to murder

OPERATORS of the men were more ex-
tensive than at first suspected. Al their
trial it developed that nearly every
resident of the Moore settlement had
been pinched for sums ranging from IS
to SIS. They would take any old thing
the farmers had in exchange for some
thing new, always STIMULATING that a
cash deposit of at least one-third the
value of the article purchased, be
made. They sold buggies, wagons, har-
ness, cane mills, cultivators, in fact
anything the farmers wanted.
When arraigned before Judge Whit
field the men made a great plea for
mercy, even trying to compromise the
matter by offering to refund the money
to their victims and pay the costs, but
1t wouldn't work, and they were re-
nlanded to the custody of the sheriff.

STRIKE AT MONTEREY.
Employees of the Guggenheim
Smelter Walk Out.

Laredo, Tex, Jan. 4.-Word reached
this city from Monterey, Mex, to-day
to the effect that $50 employees of the
large Guggenheim smelter in that city
have gone out on strike because of
dissatisfaction with a new system of
pay inaugurated on the first of the
year. The strike includes the men of
the furnace, roasting and sampling de-
partments, and while only about $50
men are directly concerned In the
strike, about 600 others are affected by
the enforced closing down of the
smelter.
1t is reported that the strikers be-
came demonstrative last night and
that the police and militia were called
out to dispense them and guard the
shelters. The report states that the
officers were compelled to use their re-
volvers to quiet the mob. Two of the
strikers were injured, although not Sc
riously.
The fires have been banked in
Smelter No. 8 and work is at stand
still, and unless an amicable settle
ment can soon be reached the smelter
will suffer an enormous loss because
of its enforced idleness.
