Last winter the long distance
weather prophets told us that
there was to be an exceptionally
dry summer following but it
proved to be the wettest ever seen
in this ection of Colorado. Now
they are taking long shots and
saving that next winter is 60
ing to be an unusually cold one.
The weather guessers ought to
retire for awhile and take good
rest. This thing of working
overtime is making their appa-
ratus uncertain.

6hine the Tinware,

Most housekeepers find that pol
bhing the tinware is the rock upon
which kitchen harmony often foun-
ders. Unless one can capture a
native Scandinavian or Teuton to
whom this work is part of her ac-
customed routine an excellent plan
is to have dishpan full of hot soda
suds on the back of the range and
drop in each utensil after using.
By the time the meal has been
served and the other dishes washed
these pieces will be found to 'haye
shined themselves" as it were. They
will require nothing but a thorough
rinsing with hot water and vigor-
Gus rubbing with a coarse crash
towel to keep them brilliant indef-
nitely.

Oregon Senator, with Congress
man Hermann, May Be In
dicted in Land Cases.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun special service. e.. -
:, Portland, Ore, Dec. 20.-The most
sensational turn yet taken in the land
fraud cases was the confession alleged
to have been made by s. A. D. Puter
and Mrs. Emma l.. Watson, which i'm
plicates men of high official, profes-
sional and social standing. The names
which rumor connects with the confes-
sion are those of United States Sena-
tor John H. Mitchell, Congressman
Binger Hermann and Frank Pierce
Mays, former United States district at
torney. Senator Mitchell and Congress
man Hermann are hurrying to their
homes from Washington.
An intimation has been received from
Washington that it is the plan of The
government officers to indict Senator
Mitchell and Representative Hermann,
and further, that it is intimated at the
capitol that the state Of facts against
them is serious and that, in this con-
nection Secretary Hitchcock is on their
train.
At the recent land frauds trial there
| was evidence to show that Senator
Mitchell introduced Puter and Mrs.
| Watson to Hermann, then commissioner
Of the general landoffce, and that
Puter went into the good graces of the
commissioner.
| There are those who profess to be-
lieve that Senator Mitchell needed no
| introduction to Puter, and also that
! Hermann had known him for a long
time.

EDITORIAL.
WE ARE VERY HAPPY.

Our clerks have just made count Of
our subscription list. The last count was
made a year ago last October. We then
had nearly 1000 subscribers, who paid
their own subscription. We have now
just rounded the 10000 mark!
But that is not the only good news
More than 1000 of our paying subscribers
reside in other states than Minnesota.
This shows that Backbone has made a
hit independently of the loyalty of Min
nesota Prohibitionists to their own paper.
Again. With the exception of ten, every
state and territory in the Union is rep
resented on our list of paying subscrib-
ers. We have every New England state
but Maine; every Middle state but Della
ware; every Southern state but North
and South Carolina, Alabama Mississippi
and Kentucky, and every Western state
and territory but Utah and Wyoming!
And it's better further on.

A CASE OF DUST THROWING.

The liquor men and their political
allies at Washington are thoroughly
scared at the prospect of the passage
of the Responsibilities bill. Only a
few days ago press dispatches an
nounced that it was certain to become
a law. 1t is rarely that a bill is sup
ported by such flood of petitions as
has been received for this. The liquor
men realize that the passage of the
bill would be serious menace to
their business. The fight has reached
a stage where they cannot win with
out raising false issue. They have
therefore charged the International
Reform Bureau with having illegally
franked literature in favor of the bill
over the country. These charges have
been dramatically made and have been
