my cousin Mary and myself to visit
the saw mill where he first worked.
The starting point was the furnace
room. eight immense furnaces were in
full blast, feed from the saw dust
which is caught In trough above and
brought down by an endless chain.
Hot is no name for it, it seemed to me
to be like what / have heard hadeS
pictured, next was the engine room,
there we saw the massive iron horses
which sets everything in motion, from
there we assembled to the log way,
where the logs are hauled up from the
water. I watched one log and follow
ed it quite away, it was five feet
through and forty feet long, with
great ease 1T was rolled onto the car
rier, and rode forth and back, Stabbed,
squared and sawed up into inch
boards, thence onto the planners and
edges, etc. The capacity of days
run / did not learn. but o. such a
noise and din, could not hear yourself
speak, it was deaf and dumb school,
all worked by signs. 1 have not visit
ed the shingle mill yet, but Will some
time soon.
The Fourth was we'll observed in
this town. Ballard can be praised fer
her loyalty and good behavior. A fine
parade of all the fraternal orders were
out, also the industrials and many
beautiful floats represented them.
Perfect order was maintained
throughout the day.
Last Sunday afternoon brother came
over from Seattle. We all went to the
Woodland park which is situated on
Green lake about three miles east of
here. Such a lovely place, 1 was en-
chanted with it all. The lake is
small body of clear nice water sur
rounded by such a lovely woods, all in
the state of nature. Such dense shade
and fine wild flowers. Wish you could
see some OF the large frs, / had no
way of measuring them, but were told
that they were from 10 to 20 feet in
circumference and 300 feet high, just
as straight as they could be. As 1
stood admiring them .how l wished
that they could unfold the past, could
tell all that had transpired since the
first tiny shoot peeped forth from
mother earth. What d volume 1t
would make. A few acres has been
fitted up with fountains, band stand.
etc. Such thick white clover turf just
like Il velvet carpet. As l stood OBJ
serving the throng enjoying them
selves in so many different ways,
children gamboling on the green turf,
and the sweet music waited by, l
thought il miniature heaven on
earth-a place where care. trouble
and sorrow was cast away, and sur
rounded by the beauties of Gods
handiworll.
L wish all Kansas people could have
some of the beauties of this state
transferred to their bare plains, what
blessing it would be.
will now bid you adieu for Il time
until the boiling pot is simmered
down and cooled off.
Yours DIS ever,

A Bird in the Hand.

The Republican candidate for vice
president still holds on TO his seat in
the United States senate. He and his
political associates have good reason
TO fear that the Democrats will carry
the legislature OF Indiana along with
the electors for president. In that case
the Democrats would elect two sen
ators from Indiana should Candidate
Fairbanks resign. as the term of SEN
atOr Bevcridge viii expire on the 4th
Of next March. If Senator Fairbanks
had the confidence which he PretendS
in regard TO Indiana he would have re-
signed his seat long ago. But with him
n bird in the hand is worth two in the
Record.

Trendin New York,

There can be do doubt that the Re
publican managers feel the chances are
against them in New York state. says
the Atlanta Constitution. They are
making and putting ont the usual elab-
crate claims that their national ticke
is certain TO carry there but they
show by the energetic character of the
work that they are doing elsewhere
that their chief hope is that they may
carry the other doubtful states even if
they lose New York
But the experience of the past has
shown that the result in the country at
large has been very materially affected
by the popular impression of the trend
of the campaign in New York. Per
haps there is no reason why this should
be so. but the fact is that in recent
years the country has always gone
with New York
1t was so in 1876, when Mr.. Tilden
won. though subsequently denied his
rights; it was so in 1880, when Garfield
was elected; it was so in 1854. when
Cleveland was elected by so emphatic
a majorityithat he could not he count
ed out. ana it has been so ever since.
At NpuLllAS hdS SUM WIN -Nt" i vi ~
With Democratic chances confessed
ly TIE best in New York, why should
the Democrats not go into the active
work of the campaign, practically just
at itsiincipiency, with courage and CON
fidence? And. mo matter how big the
handicap maybe on the surface, why,
should, they mot have every reason to
feelt that sfhe 'defeat oftRoosevelt and
his, party{is going to be accomplished? 3
AS New YORK, goes SC, goes the Union,

Day by the people or must justice wait
upon political Oligarchy?
Shall our government stand for
equal opportunity or for special priv
lege?
shall it remain a government of law
or become one of individual caprice?
"Shall we cling to the rule of the
people or shall we embrace beneficent

In these questions the judge defines
what he believes to be the grave issues
before the American people. Each is
based on conditions that now exist or
are threatened. The people. after all,
render the verdict, and these questions
should command their serious atten-
ton.
This letter needs no extended com
ment. 1t is not involved or obscure. It
is a plea of an earnest man.
All American citizens, whether Re

Democrat should go to work To make

War department officials and en-
ployes are unable to make up their
minds whether the joke is or is not
on Gen. Chaffee. While he was in the
far west last summer inspecting army
posts the order issued during the Span
ish war requiring officers on duty in
the war department to- wear their uni
forms during office hours was rescind-
ed. and since then the wearing of uni
forms at the department has been
abandoned. That is. it was with one
important exception. The exception
is Gen. Chaffee. the ranking officer of
the army, who appears at his desk
every day in his military attire, includ-
ing the three stars on each shoulder.

not know of the latest order on the

Parker is neither SO voluminOus nor

polls in November:
Shall economy OF administration be

OF Montana, called recently at the head
quarters of the democratic national
committee and delivered the following
| letter from Helena, Mont:
r. D. Mills. chairman of the state
central committee OF the labor party of
the state of Montana, has filed a letter
in which he wrote
Winston, Mont. Oct I. 1904-The
Montana labor party is made up eX-
clusively of members OF organized la
Dor in this state. and it's sole purpose
| is to advance through united political
action the cause OF those VINO toll for
living. When the question of indoors
ling a candidate for president came up
| for consideration by this committee il
was recognized that there were sew
| eraI candidates for the Office who are
strong advocates of the rights of labor,
but we realized that the present battle
lis between President Roosevelt and
Judge Parker, and that, therefore, if
tine wage-earners of Montana were TO
| cast vote that would count it was
necessary that they support one of
these two leading candidates, if the
consistently.
We are all familiar with the record
| of President Roosevelt during the last
| few years, and we are far from being
satisfied with the general trend OF his
policy toward militaTism and his nu-
merous official actions relating to Ia
bor that showed anything but friend
| II disposition toward our members.
As far as Judge Parker was con
cerned. we had little information con-
corning the stand he had taken upon
questions vital to our welfare. but at
ter thoroughly investigating the varl-
GUS decisions he had rendered affect
ing labor while he was member OF
the New York court of appeals, this
committee found that he had at all
times placed a liberal construction up
on the law. and that. contrary TO many
courts of the land. he had upheld the
constitutional rights of the citizen to
quit work when he desired.
We found. further. that Judge Park
er. although in the minority, had up
held in the court of appeals the con
stitufionality of the eight-hOur law
governing municipal work. Believing
thoroughly that the democratic cahul-
date is more in sympathy with the
cause of labor. and better understands
the hardships against which we have
TO contend. our party. after a search
ing investigation into his record. de-
tcrmined that it was to the best inter
csts of the wage-earners OF Montana
that he should be elected. rather than
that the present occupant of the White
House should be retained there; and
we shall earnestly work to bring about
the election Of Parker and Davis. We
call upon all laboring men to assist us
to this desired end.
This is the most powerful political
labor organization in the country" Mr..
Spriggs said. 1T is affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor, and
controls 10000 votes in Montana, o.
600 in Colorado and about 1900 in
Nevada. It's action makes Montana
certain for the democratic ticket"
