of pneumonia was added to his aff1ic-

many years. coming to Walla Walla
in the fall of 1885. He and his family
went to the Big Bend country after
that but returned to Walla Walla in
1898. Mr.. Maple was a shoemaker by
trade. He was born in Mansfield, O..

he came west. He leaves three chill

American people. It is given out
from apparently reliable sources in
the national capital that the president
has ordered an investigation of the
Standard Oil trust. Ida Tarbelrs his

assistance to the administration in this
investigation. There is no lack of
proof that an illegal combination ex-

few months he will take the oath OF
ONCE for four years more, j with the
consciousness that thirty three of the
forty-five states in the union chose
to support him. If he is worthy of the
confidence of all these people the feel
ing will be attended by an equally for
chile one of responsibility to the mil
lions who have SO done him honor.
AS president of the United States
Mr.. Roosevelt must broaden out. He
must get away from any spirit Of ego
tism, pharisaism or sectional prejudice.
II he would live nobly in history he
must avoid such acts as those which
during hfs. f1rse administration have
revivified the race issue and made a
thousandfold more difficult for the
South the solution of the harassing me-
gro problem. President Roosevelt
owes it TO- the people Of the South to
help them and ont hinder them in solv-
ing this problem.
AS president of the great west and
the great middle west it is his duty
to follow his own convictions and the
public interest by endeavoring to OBJ
tain better tariff laws. His tremend-
GUS, influence, following such an cleo
ton, can secure at least a modification
of the oppressive tariff which was
made to be scaled down. =
AS president of the East the West
the North and the South. President
Roosevelt is bound to act conserva-
lively, broad mindedly and .constitu-
tionally always. With no thought Of
a third term and actuated by a laud-
able and proper desire to win the
name and fame of a great" president,
he should be able to restrain and over
come any individual, Unborn tendencies
toward hasty disregard of restraint
He should be able to forget that he
ever heard of a big stick" that he
ever charged San Juan Hill or Crap
pied with a grizzly.
The country expects much of Mr.
Roosevelt. Democrats, being Americans
first of all and above ALL are quite will
ing to give him the benefit of any
doubt as to his fitness for his high Of
flee. President Roosevelt's opportunity
is surpassed by nothing save his re-
sponsibility. Will he prove equal to
both?

BEEF TRUST IN NEW YORK.

A reader of the New York World
living at Hazel, S. D., sends to that
paper this interesting communications
The people of the east do not know
what beef is selling at here. in this
cattle country. The trust will pay
only two cents per pound for the best
cattle. Look at what they have to
pay in New York for beef today!
Never in the history of cattle raising
were cattle worth so little as they are
at the present time to the cattle rails
ers. But as soon as beef goes to the
butchers stands it sell for as much as
it did five and six years ago. Com
pare that with your market and see
how much profit there is in handling
beef for the beef trust

PRESIDENTIAL OBLIGATIONS.

President Roosevelt has before him
a magnificent opportunity, correspond
ing to an exceptional responsibility. In
announcing that he will not be a can
didate for third term he appears to
perceive something of what the intel
ligent part of the nation asks him to
do in the next four years
A vote so overwhelming exacts a
generous response from the recipient
The people of the nation are feeling
very kindly toward Theodore Roose-
welt just now. The American people
always do feel kindly toward their
newly elected presidents. 1t is one CT
the saving graces of the country as a
whole; an unfailing proof of it's in
nate democracy. When the battle OF
the ballots has been fought-nO mat
ter how bitter it may have been-al
bitterness at once disappears. The
newly chosen president becomes the
president for all parties and all Sec
tions of the country.

THE DELIGHTS OF FOOTBALL.

What is the charm of football? Why
do hundreds of thousands of people
regard a good football game as one
of the events of the year? Do most of
the people who attend games under
stand the formations and strategy
we'll enough really to appreciate the
game as a game? Or, if they do, is it
possible for them to see the plays well
enough to appreciate the work of the
individual players, or, indeed. ITO tell
just how the play was made?
A very large part of the pleasure
derived from a football game BY the
spectators proceeds from partisanship
This is proved by the fact that the
dreariest thing in the world to a rooter
for one team is a game in which his
favOrites go to defeat. On the other
hand, his moment of supreme joy is
when his team wins. Another part
proceeds from the grim satisfaction,
the lurking traces of savagery in all of
us, taken in witnessing a contest in
which conflicting physical force, the
shock of man against man, takes so
large part People are interested in
football games for somewhat the Same
reasons that they are interested in
wars and rumors of war
A few appreciate a game for it's ex-
hibitions of skill, preparation and
physical strength and agility. A few
see and understand the details of every
game, but the average spectator does
not and cannot
Most of us like a game of football.
because we hope to see the other side

Paid Off.

The biennial report of the state
treasurer, just completed, shows a re-
duction in the state debt in the last
four years of $235,833, and an aegre-
gate amount of business done in the
last two years of $2,750,OOO in. excess
of the business done by the state in
the last two years of the preceding
administration. The increase alone
exceeds the total amount of business
done by the state from 1894 to 1896.
The Indebtedness at the close of
business September 30, 1900, was ST.
597,122. 1t is now $1,227,512. The to-

Colorado presents another strong il
lustration Of the power of the indie
pendent voter. Although the state
went for Roosevelt by $4,000 plurality.
J. F. Shafroth democrat, was elected
congressman-at- by a good ma
jority. At the last session of congress
Shafroth resigned his seat as soon as
he was convinced that his election was
tainted with fraud, owing. to crooked
work in some of the precincts of Den
yer. His action won the praise of fair
minded men in both parties. That it
was appreciated by the people of Col
orado is proven by the fact that they
have sent him back to Washington
with a title to his seat that is beyond
dispute. This example should prove
that it pays to be fair and square even
in politics.

Since January, 1900, under Cover
nors Rogers and Mcbride the state
debt has been reduced a little more
than $235,00O. This is splendid
showing and it should have entitled
Governor Mcbride to another term,
but the railroad bosses ruled other
wise. Governor McBride's admins
tration has been notably free from
scandals in any department of the
state government. The state insti-
tutions have been honestly and
economically conducted Governor
Mcbride has made a record of which
his friends may we'll be proud. If
Governor Mead does as we'll the peo-
pie of this state will be indeed for
tunate.

On the question of government reg
ulation of transportation the United
States can learn much from Canada.
On November 3 the Laurier govern
ment won a great victory for the Lib
eral party on the issue of government
control of the Grand Trunk Pacific
railway now being built from ocean
to ocean. The government is to have
absolute control of the freight and
passenger rates on this road. 1t will
grant the road no land except for sta
tions and roadbeds. All the money
expended by the government will be
secured by the road itself and the total
outlay will, not exceed $14,OOO,OOO.

for senator was 4T.~-Hutson's plurality
over Adams for joint senator was 295

Advertising is a modern force in

modern men. They are. the ones who
use it to the most profit.
'ai<- ~: t"o-'
Not all engaged IN business under
stand advertising. Some good busi-
ness men fail to grasp what a lever
it is to build business. II they did
they would be even farther ahead than
they are today. But it will not be "a
great while before, all in business will
be giving the subject the attention
its importance warrants.
ship says: 1T pays to advertise in
the newspapers. Occasionally we see
a merchant who has been in a certain
vicinity for long time who feels that
everybody knows him and his store
and therefore it is unnecessary for him
to advertise. A prominent advertising
man told a story recently which IL
illustrates the foolishness of that idea.
He had called upon a certain merchant
to secure a contract for advertising.
The merchant said he did not need to
advertise. His business was built up,
everybody knew about him and every
thing was moving, along nicely. This
particular man happened to be man
ufacturer, and just at this point a
salesman representing a coal house
came along and the man ordered so
tons of coal. When the coal salesman
had departed the advertising man
said: Why did you buy that coal2
and the man looked at him in aston
ishment and said That is a queer
question for you to ask The adver-
Using man said: I mean exactly
what say; why did you buy that
coal?' bought it to keep up the
fires under the boilers was the reply.
And then the advertising man said:
That is exactly what you want to do
with your advertising; keep up the
fires under the boilers so that you can
keep up steam. If you don't do it the
steam of your business is sure to run
down Then the manufacturer said:
1 guess you are right, and gave the
advertising man a good order"
