About COMPARISONS.

In comparing the vote for Mr.. Moran
with that for DIR. Conland in 1902.
these points should be noted: DR.. Con-
iand had the active and open support
of some $50 local option republicans.
and his name appeared on the ballot
in two places. as a democratic nomi-
nee and as a local option republican
nominee. Mr.. Moran had no such adj
vantage. Party lines were entirely
dropped two years ago. and the fight
was made on the issue Of local option
or prohibition. There was no such

Are Deer Still Increasing?

We have not yet been convinced
that the killing Of deer allowed for
10 days under the Vermont law is
really resulting in killing off these
animals. Such reports as come to US
seem to indicate that deer are as
plenty as they have been in recent
years. If it shall be shown that they
are being exterminated by the 10
days open season we shall join in
asking the repeal of that privilege.
The deer ought to be preserved. The
only question now is whether the abo-
lition of the open season is necessary
to their preservation.

Senator Clark as a Singer

Senator William A. Clark of Mon- tana, thinks nature intended him for a singer. He has a tenor voice of high
 register, and has mastered most of the tenor parts of nearly all of the most difficult grand operas. During the sessions of congress he gives expen- sive stag" dinners in his Mgssachu- setts avenue residence, and while his guests are enjoying his costly cigars at the end of the feast he regales them with choice selections from Wag- ner, Verdi, Mascagni and others of the masters. He even initiates the ges. lures and stage mannerisms of the most famous tenors of the day, all of whom he has heard. Senator Clark really takes his vocal efforts seriously. So do his guests.

THEY JUMPED VIEWPOINT
 A PART OF M0RENCl

Morenci is having little excite ment Newtown has been jumped. Newtown is that part of Morenci where the sporting element holds out and is about a mile from Morenci proper. The ground belongs to Paul Becker, a merchant of Morenci, he holding 1t as mineral claim. The new town sprang upon this claim, the people who built the houses paying big ground rent to Mir. Becker. On the night of Decem Der 3l three men jumped this valuable ground and demanded the saloon keep CT and other people living in Newtown to pay their ground rent to them, as they claim that Becker did not do his assessment work according to law.
 This is serious affair, as Newtown supports quite a large population, the rents amounting to several hundred dollars month. Both parties to tbe case are determined to fight it out and both have engaged attorneys to carry the case to the higher courts if neces. sary.
 It is believed that Becker will hol the ground as he made his application for patent and completed the neces- sary proofs in support of the applica- tion more than a year ago.-Inter- national American.

Greer was paid for the use of the ground, for bis labor and the necessary ex- penses in Its cultivation, $75, the gov ernment taking the product.

furnishes no finer examples of heroism
than that of the Japs who took twelve
fire boats into the harbor Of Port Ar

forts and the Russian squadron, run
ming over mines and finally adding the
perils of the water to those Of shot and
shell. 1t was a foregone conclusion
that this expedition meant almost GER
tain death to all who participated in it.
There was no way to escape the bonn
bardment of the enemy, part of the
time at very close range. This desper-
ate spirit, manifested in an aggressive
action, denotes an unconquerable hero

THE great majority of the Iroquois
victims were women and children.
School teachers and pupils of the pub.
lie schools contributed largely toward
swelling the dreadful death list. 1t
would be fitting. therefore, if the WON

enter upon the work of securing the
Iroquois theatre. dedicating it to hos
pital purposes and consecrating its
site forever to the memory of the
dead.
If the women and the school chill
dren of Chicago organize with this end
in view and the organization be proper
ly managed, there can be no doubt
that they will succeed, The problem
which the Iroquois theatre presents
is one that has puzzled thousands of
thinking people, A large amount of
capital is in the property. Those who
invested their money in the ground
and building should not be called upon
to bear greater financial loss than
they have already suffered. Yet some
thing must be done with the theatre.
It can never be successful as a high
class place of amusement. The prob
ability, if not the certainty is that the
place will sooner or later degenerate
into a variety hall. The very idea of
this is sickening.
The best use that the Iroquois the
atre can be put to is that of an emer-
gency hospital. The need of such an
institution in this city is generally re-
cognized. No better site could be
chosen, even if there were none but
purely material reasons for it's selec-
