the next governor of New York. So
chaotic are the conditions in both
Democratic and Republican camps
that NO man can say who will be the

cans only one thing is certain and
that Is that Hearst will be- "a candi-

will be- in the race For the sake OF

number of colonies that are seeking
suitable locations in Idaho. but at this
time we are unable to place them.
I'VE expect, however. to urge the or
ganization of colonies as soon as the
government litigation project in south
Idaho will afford lands for settlement.
From the present situation we enter
tain no fears but that a quick settle

cured.

Couldn't See Him.
Harpers Weekly.

An old man tells of the sad case Of a
young fellow. the son of a wealthy
Toledo manufacturer, who, against
his fathers wishes, insisted upon go
ing to Chicago to make his way.
whereas the parent desired that the
son train himself in the Toledo busi-
ness house.
At first the lad did very we'll in the
larger city, but it was not very long
before he was making urgent appeals
to his father for financial assistance
To these the old gentleman. who had
himself been trained in a hard school,
turned deaf ear.
Finally, the desperate boy wired
his father in the words: You won't
see me starve, will you?" The old
mans reply came in the form Of the
following telegram: NO. not at this
distance"
Then the boy decided to return to
Toledo and go to work for the old man.

in prison.
The arrest followed the appearance
on the witness stand of William G..
Murray, who was a guard at the peni-
tentiary in Huntsville, Tex, from 1877
to 1882. Murray said Jordan was once
a prisoner in his charge.

diets Alexander w. Walton of Cincin-

whom was burned about the arms, left
yesterday.
There is no satisfactory explanation
as to what caused the fire. Some are
of the opinion that oily rags may have
caused spontaneous combustion. The
floors of the building were oiled, and
this, In part at least, accounts for the
rapidity with which the building
burned.
