For WAYS that are dark and tricks
that are vain, Anne Arundel politics
is said to be peculiar. The county
machinery is getting notoriety as will
be seen by the following from the
Cumberland Times :
"Goyernor warfield gave the politi-
clans of both parties in Anne Arundel
county the surprise of their lives
when ne took the members of the
board Of election supervisors by the
collar and shook them out of their
official boots because they were pack
ing the primaries Of their respective
parties in the interest of their own
nominations for Office
such little thing as cheating at
an election or getting the window on
the other fellow in primary is evil
dence of talent in Anne Arundel The
people have been accustomed to it
and they were really shocked at the
emphatic way in which Governor
Warfield dealt with a few of his
officeholders who were using their po-
sitions to nominate themselves for
Office. Governor Wardeld looked at
the transaction as unfair and dishon-
est. and would not stand for IL. That
anything could possibly be unfair in
the politics of Anne Arundel is what
shocked the politicians down there. :"

AUGUST EDWARDS, LEADING r INN IN AMERICA, WRITES OF
THE TROUBLES OF THE LAND OF THE MIDNIGHT SUN.

And If we moved in starry skies.
Where no one weeps, where no
one sighs--
TO this poor lonely country,
though.
Our longing hearts would 60.
The 100000 Finlanders at
home and the 100000 in this coun-
try, with grief in their hearts, have
seen Finland's constitutional lib
erty swept away, the important
public offices given to men who
have nothing in common with the
natives, given to men born and
brought up under Russian tyranny.
But during all the dark days
there were some who could not re-
frain from protesting. This num-
Der increased and individuals, ex-
asperated, slew Russian officials
for endeavoring to carry out the
degrading policy of the destroyers
of Finland's liberty. The patriots
protested for a long time in vain
Today the conditions have changed
and the emperor in his hour of dis
tress finally has seen fit to listen
to the demand of the oppressed
subjects. He has promised to re-
store to the people of Finland the
hereditary rights and privileges of
which he by his decree of Febru-
airy Is, 1899, deprived them.
But, can we trust him? Is the
czar, who with single stroke of
the pen annihilated the Finnish
constitution and plunged into deep
mourning loyal people, a man who
will keep his promises? On this
accession to the throne in 1894,
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1905-11-20

Until a few years ago little was
known in America of the land OF
the midnight sun and its people.
1t was known that some so-called
Russian Firms had immigrated and
were working in the Minnesota and
Michigan mines and on the docks
at Ashtabula, Conneaut and Fair
port, Ohio.
But about five years ago cry
of distress was heard all over the
civilized world, emanating from the
Firms, who for 100 years had been
free and were now made virtually
Russian Serfs. Interest in the
down-trodden people was aroused,
and today Finland and it's people
are better known and as an espe
cially liberty loving people and a
people who love their country. Fin
lands greatest poet, Johan Ludwig
Runeberg, does not eXaggerate
when he sings in the national hymn
thus:
Our land is poor, and so shall be
To him who gold shall crave;
The strangers proudly pass, but we
Shall ever love this land. We see
In moor and fell and isle and
wave
A golden land so brave.
And If we once were made to rise
To gold clouds from below,

ing down a hill he ran into an i'm

wheel. He was then obliged to
walk nine miles to the nearest
town. Just outside of Wyoming he
met a number of cowboys who
in very ugly mood. Chadeayne
was unarmed and had an exciting
time.
The route chosen by him was
from Buffalo to Cleveland, through
Chicago, Davenport, Des Moines,
Omoha, Cheyenne, Ogden and
Stockton, to this city. The best
roads were found in the Middle
West and the hardest were in Ne
vada. His most trying ride was
over the desert, where miles of
railroad ties were bumped by him.
On his arrival in San Francisco,
Chadeayne was in good health, but
worn out for want of sleep. He put
up at q Mammam bath establish
ment, where he slept for thirty
hours.
The daring young fellow is I'M
d2unted by his hard experience,
and Is determined to see the world
on his motor. His next trip will
lie taken down into the heart of
Mexico.

tanned that his fear of contracting
the disease and transmitting it to
posterity prompted his action. The
plaintiff claimed that her affection
was not contagious and that she
might have recovered but for
Cooks heartless action which has
brought her to the verge of death.
One of the most novel points of
law ever raised was bitterly con-
tested by the legal and medical ex-
perts of western America, but SEN
timent won, and the young wo-
mans cause triumphed. 1t is not
likely that she will live long to
enjoy her victory, however.

Firms HOPE THEY CAN
NOW TRUST THE CAR

Nicholas II assured the people that
he desired to confirm and ratify
the fundamental laws, the rights
and privileges Of every class In
Finland which according to the
constitution Of their country they
had enjoyed. In 1899 he broke his
promise and committed a perfidiouS
crime again the fundamental laws
of Finland.
But, let us be as charitable as
we can. We are told that the
car Is one of the most Just and
noblest of monarchs, but weak and
ready to yield to any demand of
his advisors. Perhaps the uprising
in his vast empire has made him
realize that the people is a power
able to punish even the mightiest
ruler.
Finland has ceased to be the
rock against which the sigh for
freedom breaks. Hope for a sea-
son babe Finland farewell, but we
can clearly see the dawning OF q
new day. The Finnish patriots,
having persevered in their protests,
can now see their constitution re-
turned to their beloved land, and
the nation can again with Joyful
hearts take up the strain of tho
national anthem:
oh, land, the thousand lakes, own
land
OF faith, and lay, and glee--
Where life's main sea gave us a
strand,
Our fore-time's land, OH future's
land,
Shy of thy future never be;
Be calm, be glad, be free!

very little sleep, and that little was

wives and children. 1t has been so
