liminary efforts the great PAGER got
away at a very fast gait under a
strong pull, apparently inclined to
want to set the pace himself. The
pacemaker, differing from the per-
Torrance on Monday, kept safe dis
lance in the lead; all the way round to
the head Of the stretch, pulling to the
outside at. the wire and allowing Dan
to keep next to- the pole. So ma
chine-1ike was the motion Of the great
PAGER that only those; who, held their
watches on him realized what they
were seeing. He. finished strong and
apparently we'll within himself. When
the time was hung out the great crowd
broke loose and it was some moments
before the judges were able to make
the announcement. It was conceded
tby all horsemen that the Hamline
track, while it is a fast one, is at
least two seconds slower than the
Memphis track OF 1:55A last year-so
that the performance of today, by way
of comparison, is at least as good as
1853 on the Memphis track. t%

laborer by the name of Pete Paulson,
who worked on threshing machine

punishment that he deserved could
overtake him. This year he returned

when the lady happened to see him.

courage of the lady and say that she
did right in administering the punish

to See the serpent turn tail and crawl

The continuous whistling of the

on the nerves of the Sheedy's next
door neighbor, Dan Bryan. For Bryan
was an fisherman. Protests proving
of no avail, Bryan determined to re-
tort in kind. One evening from the
Bryan potato patch rose loud and
clear the stirring notes of "Boyne
Water" 1t was Bryan's turn then to-
be surprised, for out from meath his
own woodshed glided a long whip
snake that followed him with fascina-
ton till he ceased whistling. Bryan
chuckling, made haste to call Sheedy-
from his house and tainted him with
the fact that his whipsnake was not
so loyal to the green as he had
boasted. 1t was determined to settle
the matter in the only way possible
and each in his own beloved melody.
Imagine the surprise of both when
from beneath the woodpile and wood
shed glided two separate and Distinct

A Gracious Act.

Some very gracious things are done
in the house. As the great debate on
the railroad rate bill was drawing to
a close time was precious and more
members were clamoring for a chance
to speak than could be accommodated.
That was Inevitable, because men were
moved to speak by reason Of what 9th
ers said. On Tuesday morning Mr..
Stanley of Kentucky was delivering an
eloquent and imprisoned speech amid
great applause. Before his speech was
finished the hammer fell-that is, his
time expired Thereupon Hon. Morris
Sheppard of Texas, who had been
promised a few minutes by Judge
Adamson, who was managing the bill,
arose and asked Adamson to give his
time to Stanley

Election Contests.

Elections committee No. 2 Of the
house asked permission of the house
lately and obtained it to send for per
sons and papers in the case from st.
Louis wherein Mr.. Coudrey is contest
ing the seat of Hon. Ernest 3. Wood.
That grew out of the fact that Wood
had fled a motion to knock out all the
evidence on the ground that it had been
changed, altered, curtailed and mu.
tilated by the contestant or his law
yers and agents. He supported this
motion with affidayits establishing his
contention. Godfrey fled counter af-
tidavits. The truth is that contesting
congressional elections have become a
regular industry among certain Repub.
licans in st. Louis. It's an industry
that ought to be broken up.

Election of Senators by the F vple.
The legislatures of a number of states
are agitating the question of electing
senators by direct vote of the people.
1t is question that will not down, and
it is merely a matter of years until the
constitution is so amended as to per-
NIT this great gain for the people.
More than twenty state legislatures
have passed resolutions looking to the
adoption of the necessary constitution
al amendment In Mississippi, South
Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama,
Virginia, Louisiana and Arkansas they
now have system of choosing the
Democratic candidates for the senate
in the primaries. Each candidate for
the legislature has to pledge himself to
support for the senate that candidate
who receives plurality of the votes
cast in the district represented by the
member of the legislature This seems
to be as near as can be got, as the con-
stitution now stands, to choosing the
senators by popular vote. While the
legislature goes through the form of
electing the senator, it is merely a
form, for he is chosen by the people

Of Chairman Olmsted's ruling and the
Democrats lined up against it-that is,
the Republicans voted for the sugar

the trust. This was clear test /
think stated the case 50 plainly in the
extract quoted from the Record that no
man could possibly misunderstood
what he was voting on. Nearly every
member was present and voted, SO that
it was practically full party vote. All
these facts are set forth here to per-
haps tiresome length that my readers
may be able to comprehend exactly the
position, the real position, of both Dem
ocrats and Republicans as to the sugar
trust If the Republicans line up for
the sugar trust-one of the most insa-
table of the whole evil and greedy
brood Ion square test, is the conclu-
sion unreasonable that they would line
up for all trusts when put to the test?
