neury T, Oxnard for Senator.

Hcuty ~ Oxuuro IoT oSuSsoss
In discussing the probability Of Henry
T. Oxnard being a candidate for U. S.
Senator from California the Omaha Com
mereial says:
"Wers HenryT. oxnard now resi-
dent OF Nebraska. the Omaha CONNER
cial would not merely recommend. but
earnestly press for his election To the u.
S. Senate. No man has shown a more
vigorous front. nor accomplished more
by his individual effort. for the upbuilding
Of peculiarly western industry than has
Henry T. Oxnard. He has been charged
with being the head Of simply another
trust than that known as the sugar trust
the American Sugar Refining Company
and that his SUCCESS in accomplishing
legislation, or his political pvsfsrmsnt.
would simply mean the foisting OF an
other trust magnats into offieial position
where he could use the machinery Of the
government TO the advantage Of his Cor
poration.
Rather build up 4 trust which buys
produce from the American farmer. pays
q suitable compensation for Il, which ss-
.ablishes factories and employs mon by
the hundreds at living wages. than 10
foster trust which buys its produce from
cheap labor countries. maintains its fac
tories among nations whose people work
for mere pittanee and which follows the
policy OF forcing American people TO pay
the price demanded for a family neees-
sity.
III beet sugar trust was formed by
Mr.. oxnsrd. it was to save thriving
American industry from being ,hrottied
ou, OF existence by a monopoly which has
always fought American taxes. has al
ways rejected American labor. and which
has always followed a course OF profiting
from American people while keeping the
wage earners Of other countries en-
ployed."

The widespread movement to do away
with the fence in villages and cities is sig
niHeant Of many things. It speaks Of a
broader outlook. keener sense Of the ar
tistie. a larger measure Of social feeling. a
spirit in harmony with broad horizon. Il
is a great step forward-this common
plan Of lawn and walk and grassy bor-
ders. which marx the city blocks Of today.
1t reveals broader. more kindly. more
united social feeling. a sense Of common
interests and Of pleasures. impossible to
any unless shared by all.

smooth piece Of ground, and had put
on it all sorts Of tempting eatables,
then placing rugs and carriage robes
on the ground, all sat down, with raw
enous appetites. After lunch they lay
around on the robes, too lazy to move,
and told stories and sang for nearly
two hours. Then, as it was very
warm, they were ready for swim in
the inviting pool surrounded by moss
grown powders, not far away. There
was scramble for bathing suits and
everyone helped to make dressing
rooms Of branches and long grass, then
the fun began. One would have
thought they were ducks-for all the
California boys and girls are accom-
plished in one thing, and that is swim
ming.
Awhile after their swim Helen, with
three or four others, started out to
take walk along the bank Of the
river. They rambled on and on. The
river, which was not very large, had
dwindled into a merry brook; they fol-
lowed 1t along up steep path, thickly
wooded, when suddenly they came up
on clearing and in the midst Of it
stood a cabin. Being curious to see
who could live in such lonely place,
they approached. On the doorstep sat
a little girl about 8 years; she was
dressed neatly in blue Bingham
apron, and her bare feet were like lit
tie snowfakes. Helen began con-
versation with her in which she learn
ed that the child knew nothing about
the Fourth Of July; but she appeared
