each, thru the generosity Of Senator R.
A. Alger, who takes a great deal Of in
terest in the work, and in three years
these accounts aggregate over $1,000.

LITTLE BOY ACTOR
IN ROLE OF AUTHOR

Clark Marshall, who is playing "Lit-
tie Lord FauntIeroy' at the Lyceum
this week, is budding author as well
as an actor. Clarke's literary efforts
are marked by the simplicity of die
tion which one would expect from a
writer less than years old, but they
tell a story, and lead without confus-
ing verbiage to tangible point, which
is more than can be said Of the mar
ratives of many older writer's.
Clark and Lawrence Barbour, the
Lyceum stage manager, are great chums
and the following little story, signed
and illustrated by the author, was one
Of Mr.. Barbour's most priced Christ
mas presents:
THE TREE AND THE BABY.
Once In the woods far from the city
stood a hut it was winter and poo
man and a Baby that had come to lool
for a house went in to the hut and i
came Christmas. And the baby said car

for the Baby. He found one all covered
with toys so next day the Baby got III

One of the curious features in the SEN

ence of the west by merging the exist
 ing territories into few states. 51r. Bryan is desirous of seeing all sections of the country equally and equita- bly, represented in the senate and the electoral college, ar d hence he is in- crested in the pending campaign to preserve the autonomy of Arizona.
 Mir Bryan is well aware that if Ari- zona elects Mrcus A.Smith as delegate to congress, tine democrats of the sen- ate will have ample warrant 10 ex haust parliamentary methods to defeat the republican policy of annexing Ari- zona to New Mexico. MT. Bryan also knows that Mir. Fowler is a Msssa chusetts man by birth. and only a re- cent emigrsnt from Massachusetts, and would be largely controlled by Massachusetts republicanism. of which MT. Fowler is an offspring, is eternal ly opposed to the creation of any more western states. MT. Bryan is far sec ing, prudent, patriotic and western, and consequently is watching the cam pagin in Arizona with unusual inter est. He knows that if Smith is elect ed to congress the autonomy of Ari- zona will be preserved by the demo. crats of the senate, and that in the future the power of the west will be enhanced in the government by the representation of the state of Arizona in the senate and the electoral college.
 No wonder Mir. William J. Bryan is warmly interested in the election of Marcus A. Smith to congress. All true western men of all parties should be equally interested. The election of Smith will mean that the conspiracy to deprive the west of its natural and constitutional power in the federal gov ernment will be defeated. Citizen.

When a man is elected to an office and quits it to accept another office, leaving vacancy to be filled by sp- pointment he should not be entrusted with another.
