Can it be possible that there has been
failure in the snake crop? Whatever
the cause this springs lack of snake
stories has been so painfully obvious
that the snake editors are being forced
into writing head lines for the religious
notes. Has no Kansas farmer yet plowed
up a bunch of rattlesnakes as large as a
rain-barrel and as round as a billia rd
ball that rolled after him, Kissing,
across the field? Are all the ten-foot
blacksnakes killed out of the wilds of
New jersey? Has no two-year-old
child in Hooppole township, Posey
county, Ind, yet been observed playing
in the front yard with a friendly
spotted adder? Where are the snakes
of yesteryear?

THE HEARST ABOMINATION.
Something to Arouse the Moral In
dignation of the Ameri-
can People.

A recent dispatch from st. Louis tells
how Mr.. Hearst has been trying to buy
up the hotel Accommodations of the city
during the convention. He succeeded in
part-having secured whole floors in
some hotels 1t is estimated that his
hotel bills for convention week will be
$4,000. His convention bills-but the
subject is painful We mean, in a very
serious sense, that the subject is pain
full. 1t is one of the most humiliating
that an American citizen can discuss.
We have read how the Roman empire
was bought; for the first TIME there is
an attempt to buy the American presi-
dency. There is no use trying to dis
guise the essence of the procedure. In
deed, we doubt if there is any attempt
at disguise. There certainly is none on
the part of the wOuld-be purchaser His
attempt to get the nomination to the
presidency by one of the two great
parties in the country is confessed4y
based on the purchase of delefates--let
us call things by their right name all
the way through; there is no use to talk
euphoniously about the "use of money"
by Mr. Hearst. His use OF money"
means that he is buying deleg es, says
the indianapolis News Qnd. Dem.).
There is just this difference between
the present situssion and that of Rome,
when the empire went to the highest
bidder-that was actual bargain sale and
delivery. This is a purchase of men in
private capacity to compel q national
convention to nominate the purchaser.
Of course, the methods for election
would be those used for the nomination
the purchase of everybody that could
be bought. 1t is the most disgraceful
episode in the national history. The
moral indignation of the American peo-
pie ought to be aroused against those
that have part and lot in this matter,
and give them to feel that there is dig
nifty and sanctity of citizenship in this
America that resents a proposition of
putting the highest office in the gift of
the people in one scale and millions of
money in another. We are commercial
lied, heaven knows, but We are dis
graced unspeakably every day that thfe
Hearst infamy can be talked of serious
ly or at all, except in denunciation.
CTThe discovery of Mr.. Bryan's Com
moner that Parker is not available"
will lend considerable zest to the cam
paign of the coming candiuate.-N. Y,
World Dem).
u No ruling adverse to Mr.. Bryan
can be appreciated by Mr.. Bryan. No
point made against him is regarded by
him as settled. lie doesn't stand by

people has ruled against Mr.. Bryan He

cuses it of corruption.-N. Y. Sun.

NeKoma, H., April lSth.-Away back in
1901 Mr.. Albert +. Larson of this place
was suffering with Kidney disease and
backache. The pain he was called upon to
endure was very great and rendered his
life almost burden to him. He heard of
Dodd's Kidney Pills and began to use
them and almost at once he began to get.
better. He had been unable to work, but.
Dodd's Kidney Pills soon made him able
to go to work again. He used the remedy
till he was completely cured. He says he.
has grown stronger year by year since he
got rid of his old trouble.

1t is not absolutely impossible that

from too obvious reasons. but because
overnourished society is tired of spend

A Murder at the Polls.

New Orleans, April 20-The elec.
tion yesterday resulted in a tragedy
at Gonzales, La, where the Lilly
Whites" and democrats are closely
divided. Capt, Sam Moore, former
sheriff under the democrats, who was
leading the Lilly White" faction, be-
came involved in a dispute at the
polls and was killed by Deputy Sheriff
Ed Smith. Moore was attempting to
post pictures of negro officeholders
under the democratic administration.
Smith interfered on the ground that
the pictures would breed trouble at
the polls. .-..-..

CITY NEWS.
WEEPING WIFE
CHUNG TO DAVIS
CONVICTS WIFE COMES OF GOOD
ST. PAUL FAMILY.
In Order to Put His Prisoner OH the
Train, Sheriff Dreger Had to Tn
loose the Woman's Embrace-Da-
Wis Has an All-Around Record.

Love hath never known a law be-
You'd it's own sweet will" is the SEN
timent deduced from the actions of
tall lady in black, whose love and
life are devoted to Paul Davis, a much
convicted criminal who recently
pleaded guilty to burglary in the third
degree and was taken by Sheriff Dre-
ger yesterday to serve a five-year sem
tence in the state penitentiary.
During Davis stay in the county
Jail the comely young woman who is
known as Mrs. Davis was painfully
persistent in her devotion to the pris-
oner. Morning, noon and night she
called to see her beloved; she brought
him all sorts of delicacies, and when
asked to leave the JAIL would always
demonstrate with the authorities and
denounce them as cruelty tyrannical.
When Paul was sentenced, he and
his wife were the principals in a
touching little farewell drama. This
was thought to be the end, but when
Sheriff Dreger started out yesterday,
he found he had reckoned without
his host. The sheriff and his hcarge
were about to board the train for
Saltwater when up rushed the lady
in black and, grabbing the prisoners
arm, exclaimed: "Oh my husband,
I am not going to lose you'
Here, here!'' cried the sheriff.
This won't do. It's all over now.
You can't 60" and he proceeded with
an attempt to separate the affection
ate two. But the woman was not go
ing to give up without a struggle.
Mr.. Dreger is.patient, but finally ex-
erted his authority and by main
strength dragged the prisoner and his
weeping wife apart and hurried his
charge onto the train leaving a cry
ing and indignant woman alone on
the platform as the train pulled. out
of the station.
Upon an investigation carried on by
the sheriff at Saltwater, it develops
that Davis is not the convict's name
at all. His right name is Lynn Bird.
He was born at Champlin, this coun-
ty, and his family is we'll known. He
gained considerable prominence dur
ing the earlys part of his career as a
prize fighter and has for a long time
been looked upon as the "black
sheep" of the Bird flock. He was first
convicted Of grand larceny in the
first degree in 1893 and has since been
three times convicted of similar Of
lenses and sentenced to terms in the
penitentiary and reformatory.
Mrs. Davis is said to be of very
good st. Paul family, the members Of
which did all they could to combat
her infatuation for the young and
good-looking crook, but their efforts
were of no avail.

!. LABOR BODIES PROTEST
Take Exception to Action Of Builders as
to City WAGES.

O. -
Resolutions protesting against the ac-
ton Of the Builders and Traders exchange
in opposing the payment of more than
$1.75 a day to city laborers were adopted
by the Trades and Labor assembly and
the Building Laborers' union last night
The resolutions say that inasmuch as
the. city employs laborers for only $50 days
in each year, that 81 day affords little
enough on which to live. The rather
luton is:
Therefore, be it resolved, That this
assembly goes on record as protesting
vigorously against the penurious and in
human action of the members of the said
exchange in endeavoring to deprive these
hard working men and their families of
their justly earned support
The matter will be taken UP with the
city council committee by the following
nings, chairman; Theodore Raup M. Mo-
gan. Arthur A. Ogg, J. e. Mullane, L. H.

CLASS ADOPTS A BABY
Central High Students Interested in the
Newest McWhorter.

Newest McWhorter.
Master McWhorter, whose mundane life
began few days ago, is the possessor
of beautiful spoon. The new mortal in Sc
lecting his parental sponsors appears to
have been more astute than any one is
willing to give him credit for, for no
sooner had his advent at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. L. N. McWhorter been heralded
about before the senior class of the Cen
trail high school had an impulse to do
something. The practical youths suggested
a cradle or a high chair or a baby car
riage. but the young demoiselles scorned
the idea of gift whose period Of useful
ness would be so limited and stood as one
for a silver spoon with the numerals Of
the class chased in artistic pattern on the
most prominent part.
Papa McWhorter is, the principal of A
room at the high school, and is said to be
more proud of the remarkable popularity
of his scion than if the class had bought
him an automobile.
