One hundred new nippers are
now being made in the state repair
shop by Captain Maish and his
assistants. The nippers will be
used on the spinners in the Irvine
department. Each nipper consists
of six to eight parts, and these
parts are of such delicate mechan-
lem that it requires considerable
skill to make them. It is likely
that it will take several months to
complete the lot.

We wonder what effect the short
vacation of the band boys from
their morning concerts is having
on the typewriting machines in
the shoe shop. E. w. M. used to
say that the playing of the band
increased his speed twenty-five per

there is no danger of overpro-
duction during the bandmaster's
vacation.

made in Upton Sinclair's recent
book "The Jungle" the Uncle
Toms Cabin of the twentieth
century, Congress will 60 after the
meat trust, and all it's horrid prac-
tees, with a sharp stick. Upton
Sinclair is another man with 3
muck rake and the parasites who
fatten off the system will turn
green when they fully appreciate

given one of the despised and re-

The New York legislature rec
emily passed bill pensioning any
veteran who had for fifteen or
more years been employed in the
Civil Service of the state or of any
county or city, provided the said
vet ran had reached the age OF
sixty-five years. Governor Hig-
gins very wisely vetoed the bill
giving four reasons for his action.
The fourth objection is really the
main reason why any such legis-
lation is Objectionable. The gov
ernor says: ut tends toward the
establishment of general pension
system for civil employees, to which
the state and the civil divisions
thereof should not, in my judg-
ment be committed" Such legis-
lation looking to the payment OF
pensions, approximation annui-
ties, compulsory insurance, ETC..
smack strongly of the paternalism
which is fostered by monarchial
form of government. Paternalism,
no matter how closely yelled, is a
menace to republican form of
government, and should never be
permitted to rear it's insidious head
anywhere in this country of ours.
These vicious schemes are on q
par with the government ownership
of public utilities, such ownership
under our political system is per-
nicious and dangerous; there
should be q strict government sup
ervision, and you and / may live to
see it. Such government super
vision of life insurance would, is
honestly administered, fully pro-
tect the now luckless policy holder
and practically bust the trusts.

GREAT FEAT OF RUNNER.
Days Over the Roughest Kind
of Country.

The Tarahumares, a great tribe Of
the northern Sierra Madre, are the
greatest runners on earth, not in re
gard to speed but in endurance. They
have been known to average 10 miles
per day; there is an absolute record
that is indisputable of Tarahumare
sent with an important government
document that necessitated an imme-
date answer covering the distance
there and back, 600-mile jaunt, in five
days, or an average of 120 miles COW
cred in each "a hours, not counting
the time lost while the answer was
being prepared, and 1t must be re-
membered that this feat was not per-
formed upon fair road or on an I'M
dulating plain. 1t was over the Wild
est country that the Sierra Madre af-
fords; up and down paths that the
very deer would hardly esteem a trial;
the only level ground encountered was
the crossing Of deep river. Also, the
journey was done on "pinole," a
species of popcorn ground down and
mixed with water, and the runner car
ried his camp equipment, a native
woven white wool blanket.
