the approaching marriage Of Miss
Jennie Howell 20 Mr. Duncan Doug
las EAs than:
There was q baby winsome,
you'll think they all are sol
Who found n royal welcome
Some twenty years ago;
Into a nest Of lordly youths
This wee mAIdep came.
Whose brows were fresh with morn
ing dsws-
Can you guess her name?
The days Of all took on rainbow hues,
Home was love laden;
Lives seemed full OF grander truths
On account o. this. wee maiden.
Her head with dark-hued curls Is
crowned,
Eyes with blue aflame,
Aud graces rare OF heart are found
say, what IL her name?
To q health resort this maiden went
A week or so Ia stay;
The heated term up there she spent
The maiden grew quite gay.
Among the guests the maiden met
There with the self same aim
You may hear more of him, yet.
Say, what is her name?
A moment OF moments, was the mo-
ment Of greeting,
Life began anew
A day Of fate was the day OF meeting
Between these two.
From out our midst will go a friend
The tale Is ever the same:
To a distant town her way she'll
wend-
Say, what is her name?
He'll likely carve her Thanksgiving
bird
AS she sits by his side,
While she lovingly hangs on every
word
Who is this Thanksgiving bride?

The Eagles attitude in the die
custom relating to Senator Bailey
may be stated in a few words
The question is simply whether OF
not United States Senator has
the right to act as the attorney foT
corporate interests while he ii
clothed with the law making power
of representative of the people,
We hold that he has no such right
and that to this extent Senator
Bailey has erred Beyond such
legitimate criticism a. may be bas'
ed upon this view of the matter
We have no sympathy with the at
tack upon him.

FRATERNAL DIVIDENDS.

Old line Insurance. companies
boast of dividends paid in cash TO
members. But the cash paid back
TO the members is only the same
cash collected from them-cash
over and above the cost of their
insurance. There are no divi-
dends or profits about the transac-
ton. Their proposition to policy
holders runs something like this:
Pay us (the company say Sl2 a
year for Insurance., SIS TOR expen-
ses and SIS additional for invest
ment, at some time in the future,
perhaps we'll return the last Sl5
and call it dividend. Then when
the Sl5, which the company has
had use Of for years, and which it
never needed, is returned, a great
ado is made over il.
So far as the actual cash diyi.
dend is concerned, members OF fra
ternals keep it in their own peck.
cts for their own use. Other divi-
dends, however, are paid daily.
There's the dividend Of socisbility
found in the lodge room, the divi-
dend Of brotherly love, Of kind
ness, Of good cheer. The dividend
OF little helps Of kind acts. The
dividends Of caring for the sick,
of lifting the fallen, Of curing the
afflicted, Of burying the dead, ofex
tending sympathy.
Ali fraternal dividends are too
many to enumerate, too sacred to
have a cash value, TOO valuable
to have a price. Compared 10 the
cold cash dividends returned by
old line companies they are a.
substance to shadow, as sunshine
to darkness, a. warm human heart
beats TO cold, mathematical corpor-
alton methods.-Yoeman Shield.

From thirteen acres Of extrsordi-

bales of cotton and estimates that
fully two acres was lost from blight.
The land was prepared early and

Kern and Smith have always been the
closest friend. although one. is a Dem
ocrat and the other Republican.
1t was generally rumored and not
denied by either that If Smith were
elected mayor Kern would be chief
of police. 1t was also rumored and
practically admitted that with Smith
as mayor Kern would be member of
the board of public works as soon as
President Anderson's term expires.
Kern, as chairman of the councilmanic
board of works, made an excellent
record. While, with Smiths with
drawal from the race for mayor,
Kern's chance as a member of the
board of public works has gone glim-

chance to become chief of police.

uD 9TH in political and a social
way this has been the most

nD 9TH in a political and social
way this has been the most
enjoyable day of my cam
paign in the southland" said Theodore
A. Bell last night at the conclusion of
his meeting at Pomona.
1t was strenuous day for the Demo
cratic nominee for governor, and in the
opinion of both Democrats and Repub-
licans living In the great and fertile
San Gabriel valley Mr.. Bell turned
many voters against the Southern Pa
cific machine.
Automobile tours Of the cities, towns
and settlements in the valley had been
made previously by two nominees for
governor, but that of Mr.. Bell yester-
day, covering the same territory that
the Others had traVersed, was made
under conditions which were declared
by old line Republicans to be most pro-
pitious for the Democratic nominee and
to augur we'll for the success of the
Democratic ticket on the 9th Of Novem-
ber.
BeITS CroWuS bl9gcSt
At every stopping place for thirty
miles UP the San Gabriel valley Mr..
Bell was greeted by crowds which Re-
publicans admit were greater In num-
ber than the combined audiences OF
Gillett and Langdon.
On Republican authority also 1t is
asserted that the amount of enthus-
iasm displayed exceeded that which
was engendered by the Republican
nominee for governor. These same Re-
publicans state that as to enthusiasm
the Langdon tour cannot be taken into
consideration, as there was no such
element noticeable during the visit of
the Hearst figurehead.
In addition to these conditions so
favorable to Mr.. Bell, the Democratic
standard bearer numbered among his
hosts and escorts men who long have
been identified with the Republican
party, but who, during the present
campaign at least. have declared their
intention of working for and voting In
favor of Bell as a protest against the
domination Of the Southern Pacific con
troll of the Republican party in Cali
fornia.
Republicans Converted
One of these men was delegate to
Santa Cruz and who became disguised
with the action OF the Southern Pacific
bosses there.
Another Is the chairman of the Re-
publican executive precinct committee.
Still another is the editor of Re-
publican newspaper.
Many other Republicans voluntarily
assured Mr.. Bell OF their intention Of
voting for him, but for certain reasons
thought II not advisable to make pub
lie their intentions.
During the day Mr.. Bell was notified
that an actual poll of the Republicans
of ontario showed that 50 per cent Of
the Republicans there had declared
their intention of voting for him.
Throughout the San Gabriel valley
there were displayed evidences that n
revolt against the Southern Pacific
machine Is on and that It will result
the Democrats carrying hitherto ac-
knowledged Republican strongholds.
From Monrovia to Pomona the hills
bordering the San Gabriel valley re-
