Mineral Point Saturday night. Its
full force was not developed, how
ever, until Monday morning, when
thermometers in our city registered
from 80 to 30 degrees below zero,
while all day Sunday and Monday it
remained below zero decidedly. AS
much as As below has been reported
from some few sections in the state,
and from all indications Wisconsin
has been, during this particular
wave, the coolest spot in the coun-
try. Those who keep tab pronounce
II the most severe experienced in the
state since 1875. While more or less
suffering by both man and beast is
natural consequence, no fatalities
have yet'been reported.

Rather than to have the scholars
sit shivering in their seats and con-
tract colds and probably sickness, it
was decided to dismiss all students
who he'd gathered at our city schools

same closed for the day. The jani-

building to proper temperature for
comfort and successful work by

When you stride up to the rubber, In
ninth with two men out,
While the joyous crowd, expectant, bel
lows one delirious shout,
When you sternly face the pitcher with
a cold defiant smile,
And the populace incite you ''please to
hit it half mile
Then's the time you are determined that
you'll do the best you can,
Then's the time that life grows tiresome
when the pitcher makes you FAM
On the bases they are waiting, waiting
for your needful smite,
And you whack and whack and wallop,
using all your latent might
While the curve sails by uninjured and
the straight ball gets away,
And you see an awful blackness shroud-
ing DER the summer day
Then you know the crowd regards you
as traitor and rat,
When the third strike has escaped you,
and you drop your useless bat!
Arnold tried to sell his country and,
Mid cold and alien notion, target for
abuse and jeers-
Arnold never faced a pitcher, with a
runner on each base,
And attempting one long bingle, gained
the third strikes dark disgrace
Like to him who steals a doormat, OF
prrloins an empty can,
Is your feeling when the pitcher by his
cunning makes you fan!
Some time in the far off future they
will change the playing rule,
Making it unlawful practice thus t.
make man fool
They will handicap the pitcher, so thai
he must toss 'em straight.
When the ninth. is on, with sacks full
and a slugger at the PLATED
Then there'l be no further heartburns
owhen the pitchers no more can
Flop you when you whack for glory
foozie you and make you FAM -

ORGANIZE NOW.

1t is little more than a month till
Idaho's legislature meets, which does
not leave much time for the friends OF
the South Fork wagon road to get their
data together upon which to base their
request for assistance from the state to
build this very necessary highway We
would like very much to hear from tie
mine owners of Dixie and the Hump as
to what they are doing along this line.
We venture to point out the necessity,
to them, of some defnate form of or
ganization, without which they cannot
hope to accomplish anything, and it
would be hardly fair to the Lewiston
Commercial club to leave them to bear
the burden of a movement for public
Improvement which should have its in
ception in Idaho county.
We are informed that the Elk City
Board of Trade will, at its regular
meeting on December, 4th, take up this
question and let the friends of the en-
terprise know how it stands.

1t was Richard Harding Davis, we
believe, who, in his report of the rush
of the American troops up San Juan
hill, speaks particularly of a big SER
geant who, when he reached the summit,
drew his sleeve across his streaming
dome of thought and casually remarked
to the world in general: ''Well, hell!

With the installation of such an ex-
tensive cyanide plant as that determin-
ed upon by the Crooked River Mining
& Milling company, very large per-
centage of the element of doubt as to
the bonahde character of Elk City's
mineral resources entertained by inves-
tors will undoubtedly be dispelled. Els
pecially viii this apply to the dyke for
nation as mineral bearing agent.
Although wildcatted to death as the
district has unquestionably been in the
past, and hammered as it unquestion-
ably is at the present time by coterie
of gentlemen whose organs of hope con-
stitute their sole reasoning equipment,
it will doubtless require regular ship
ments of bullion to completely dispel
the clouds engendered by ignorance,
greed and calumny.
The district can now settle down to
the one essential task of developing its
vast mineral resources safe in the con-
seriousness that its reputation as a min
ing camp is sguarely and firmly estab-
Ished on sure and legitimate basis,
and that that reputation will be safe in
the hands of such men as VIM. Hogan
to whose appalling energy, unfailihg
tact, and almost uncanny patience, this
desirable condition is owing, more thar
to any other single force engaged.
We do not wish to be understood as
saying there were not, other men work
ing toward that end just as sedulousy
because there were and are several, bu
it was Mr.. Hogan's good fortune to no
only occupy commanding position bu
he created it, in that he discovered tn,

revolutionize the mining industry il

early to paraphrase the sergeant, w
may all rest safe in the conviction tina

On would have beaten him. Had the
platform been an exalted one Judge |
Parker would have beaten it. AS 1t
was, the platform and candidate were
on level, and on so low a level that
the American people turned away from
both.
We hope that in all the elections to
come no party will come with an appeal
to the cowardice of the American pee
pie, as the democrats came this year.
We are sure that this years experience
will prevent for all time to come, one
candidate for president personally as
sailing his opponent. This caused more
men to rem away fIom Judge Parker
than any other one thing. 1t was rightly
so, for surely the integrity and the
moral as well as physical courage OF
President Roosevelt has been tried often
enough to satisfy all men on that score.
We hope the ultimate effect will be
GOOD. At least a solid south is con-
fronted by solid north. This is mis-
fortune, but it is the quickest way to eff
feet change. In all things, save pol
itics. the men of the south are gener-
Gus people. In politics they are neither
generous nor just. 1t is forty years
less six months since the lips of the last
cannon of the great war grew cold. A
full generation has lived and died since
then. If a people will to their own dis
advantage, hug to their souls a sense
less prejudice that long, there is moth
ing to do but to be just and to wait til
a new spirit possesses them. The NORTH
has always been anxious to meet then
more than half way. That has beer
tried for forty years, and that is lonG
enough. So long as they flock by them
selves; so long as one in four years they
come forward and, digging the FREE
trade plank from the grave Of the dea'
confederacy, insist on making fetisl
of it, so long we hope they will be beat
en- even. as they are beaten this year
with solid north and west against
, solid south. twill be the quickest wa
to bring the men of the south to thei
senses.
We will concede that they are just a
good and generous and brave race
ever lived, but we will not concede tha
the men of the north and west are nc
their full equals, and hence when the
refuse to make terms with the men VIII
are their full peers, then it is time fC
? the men Of the north and west to loo
to their own interests, and in justice
insist upon maintaining thems
We rejoice over the great victory b.
cause we believe it was righteol
. victory.

SorrowfuI Experience Of Cudahy Work
man at Sioux City.

man at Sioux City.
Sioux City, Aug. 6.-Rising suddenly
from his bed with agony depicted on
his face, as if he were laboring under
great pain, Walter Ambrose, young
nonunion laborer from Minneapolis,
fell dead on the floor in the improvised
sleeping rooms of the Cudahy packing
plant at IL o'clock Thursday night.
The catastrophe caused consterna-
ton among the laborers who were
sleeping in the same hall with Ambrose
and they quickly gathered about him
to offer their assistance, but the man
was beyond all help, and in their midst
gave his last gasp.
The police were at once notified, and
officers were on the scene few mo-
ments afterwards. The body was taken
to Westcott's morgue, where 1t will be
held until his friends in Minneapolis
are notified
Ambrose had just come to Sioux City
and along with number o.
other laborers was taken into
the plant. He had gone to work
at once in the sweet pickling cells and
had worked hard all day. Who his
relatives are no one at the plant is
able to tell. He was about 80 Years OF
age, was fairly well dressed when he
presented himself at the plant and
twas quite intelligent.

PARKER'S RESIGNA TON
REGRETTED BY JUDGES

Esopus, N. Y, Aug. 5.-Judge Park,
er. who is now no more Judge but a
private citizen and the democratic
nominee for president, spent the day
at his home here, having returned
from Albany last night after filing his
resignation as chief Judge of the high
est court in New York there yesterday
afternoon. The document notifying
the secretary of state of his resigna-
ton was brief and read as follows:

His fellow judges we're not SO reti-

Judge Parker's resignation was not

of all the cases upon it, and he leaves
the bench with nothing left undone.
