CATTLE IN THE YOSEMITE.
Grazing in The Famous Nationa
Park Recommended.

Grazing in ihe Famous National
Park Recommended.
In his annual report John BigelOw,
Jr., superintendent of Yosemite Ma
tional park, recommends that cattle be
allowed to Craze within the confines OF
the district over which he presides, as
preventative of forest fires.
He states that by diminishing the
amount of grass the cattle will destroy
one Of the principal means of starting
fires; by cutting trails, as cattle al
ways do on grazing fields of any ex-
tent, they provide guards, which, if
they do not stop the progress of fires,
will at least be useful in combating
such danger by the usual methods of
back-fring, and in addition to these
reasons the cattle in the park insure
the interest of a number of cattlemen,
herders, cowboys, etc., who will not
only take an active part in preventing
fires and assist in their suppression,
but will also keep the superintendent
informed as to the condition of the
reservation in places which he is not
likely to visit and will give prompt
alarm in time of fire.
Mr.. Bigelow also recommends the
acquisition by the United States of
the Yosemite valley, now owned by
the state of California. His recommen-
dations include also the purchase of
the tollroads in the park leading to
the valley; the purchase by the gov
eminent of certain patented lands
which are scattered over the park and
constitute a considerable part of it's
area, perhaps 100 square miles, and
the cutting off of eight townships, an
area of about twelve miles by twenty,
from the national park.

CITY CLERK DIES IN BED.
Milwaukee Official of Thirty Years
in City Service.

Milwaukee, Dec. 21.-Edward NJ.
Schuengel, who had spent 80 years in
the city service, died yesterday morn
ing while asleep in his bed. He had
been city clerk since 1898, serving
continually in that capacity until the
time of his death.
Mr.. Schuengel retired about mid
night Monday night feeling we'll and
apparently in better health than for
several weeks. He had spent the
day ait his office in the city hall and
in the shops buying Christmas gifts.
One of his purchases was piano for
his little daughter.
1T is not known exactly when he
died. Mrs. Schuengel was awakened
at o'clock by the rafting of win
dow in the room. She tried to rouse
her husband, but could not She
fastened the window herself and then
went to her husbands bedside. She
placed her hand On his forehead and
found it cold. Thoroughly alarmed
she called her oldest son and it was
then that his death was discovered.
DR.. jung was called. He said
death had taken place possibly two
hours before. The cause of his de-
mise was heart disease with which he
had been a sufferer for some time.
He had also suffered from Bright's
disease which, with the ailment of the
heart, brought about his untimely
end.
His illness dates back to the time
he went with the aldermen to New
Orleans two years ago. He became
very i'll on his return, and lost flesh
rapidly. He suffered also for long
time with an affection. of one of his
eyes.

Boston, Dec. 21.-The prediction
that the fiscal year ending in June,

A WORD WITH DEMOCRATS.

Every man is responsible for his
influence, be it small or great. Every
Democrat who votes for Parker votes
to defeat Roosevelt. Every Democrat
who Ices not vote for Parker contri-
butes toward the election of Roose-
welt. o nevery question upon which
Judge Parker's position is open to
criticism, President Roosevelt's posi-.
ton is worse; where they differ, as
they do on many important questions.
Parker is right and Roosevelt is
wrong.
Roosevelt favors a high tariff; Par
ker favors tariff reform. Roosevelt
| favors a standing army of 10000 at
| the minimum; Parker favors a re
duction Of the army.
Roosevelt has brought the race is
sue into national politics; Parker
would remove the race issue from
politics.
Roosevelt stands for a colonial pol
icy; Parker favors independence fol
the Filipinos and would make the
promise now.
Roosevelt took into the White
House a spirit Of war; Judge Parker
would substitute for it a spirit o.
peace.
Four years more of Roosevelt would
make economic and industrial re
forms more difficult; Judge Parker's
election would clear the way for eco
nomic issues. Let no Deomcrat by
voting against Parker or by refusing
to vote, take upon himself response
bility for our years more of Roose
veltism.-William ]. Bryan.

THE FULL WATER PITCHER.

There is an excellent cartoon in
the current number of the Common
er, illustrating the evolution of Re
publican symbols. In 1900 the pic
ture is a large full dinner pail, in
1904 it is a smaller vessel, the full
coffee pot, and the surmise for 1903
is that it will be a yet smaller yes
sci, the full water pitcher. OF this
evolution in a recent speech Mr.. Bry-
an said:
when l visited Indiana in 1909 l
saw everywhere pictures of a full
dinner pail. The Republicans used it
as a symbol of the working mans
prosperity. nave now been in md
lana for four days, and l have not
seen a picture of a single tull dinner
pail yet.
What is the symbol this year?
Senator Beveridge says now that the
coffee pot is the test of prosperity
and asserts that we use three times
as much coffee as we did under a
Democratic administration. It is a
long step from a full dinner pail to
a coffee pot. Coffee is a great deal
thinner than bread and meat. Maybe
the laboring man is using coffee as a
stimulant so that he will not feel the
loss of bread so much. What will
the Republican symbol be in 1905?
Possibly a water pitcher to show
that he annot ever afford coffee. 1t
is as long a step from the full dinnec
pail to the coffee pot as 1t is from the
coffee pot to the water pitcher.

Chamberlain Cough Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with its
good qualities can be surprised at
the great popularity of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. 1t not only cures
colds and grip effectually and perm
anently, but prevents these disea SEES
from resulting in pneumonia. 1t is
also a certain cure for Group. Whoop-
ing cough is not dangerous when
this remedy is given. 1t contains no
opium or other harmful substance
and may be given as confidently to a
baby as to an adult. 1t is also pleas
ant to take. When all of these facts
are taken into consideration it is not
surprising that people in foreign
lands, as well as at home, esteem
this remedy very highly and very few
are willing to take any other after
having once used it. For sale by all

Yes, the election of a representa-

Mr.. Ellis, too. has lived in this ais

it become essential in this country

is just as devoted to his home, its
progress and interests as Mr.. Prayer
can possibly be. And then there is
one great difference. Mr.. Ellis is a
Democrat and will not vote for the
measures that mean a continuation
OF Oteroism in this Territory with all
that it's name implies. A vote for

is a vote against the Otero-Andrews
