Down where the editor Of The
News halls from, the Twentieth
Senatorial district. it has, ever
since the day of the old Green
back party, been battle ground
royal in politics. The Green
hackers" were much in evidence
for about four years beginning
with lSo2, sending Col @. W
Jones TO Congress and electing
many other officers. Then the
Democrats got it in for each
other 1t was Cleveland and
Anti Cleveland, goldbug and
free silverite l6 to-oners. Then
came the Hogg and Clark bit
terness, followed by Populist
victories here and there. Four
years ago Populism was in the
evening of its finish and two
years past, under the name In
dependent ticket, it entered
the night of its oblivion in so
far as the old Twentieth is con
Cerned.
Many good citizens who had
followed the fortunes of popu
lism until all hope departed,
had determined to cast their
lot with Democracy this year;
some of them have even an
nounced for office, subject 10
primary action, but, alas for
them, the powers that be refuse
the olive branch-they insist on
the old familiar test, as follows:
" 4 am a white man and a
Democrat; | did not vote
against the nominees of the
Democratic party in the last
general election, and | will
not oppose or vote against
the nominees Of the Demo

the school house in the city of Tyn-
dali on July % to 28, 1906. This

The men engaged are: Prof. w.
L. Cochrane Of Aberdeen, Prof. E.
@. Pelisbo of the University of
South Dakota and Prof. J. F.

Homme county are not only re-.
quired by law to attend institute
but are earnestly requested to be
present at every lecture OF this ses

Another raise OF q cents a gal
Ion in the price Of gasoline which
was made by the Standard Oil
company last week is simply an
other outrage on the public. There
is absolutely no excuse for such an
oppression except greed and ava
rice Fortunately congress, by re
moving the internal revenue from
denatured alcohol, has provided a
way by which the people, after Jan.
lst, 1907, can escape from the
clutches of this merciless monopo-
ly, and the people will be foolish if
they do not provide this substitute
and diminish the use of the Stand
ard Oil products to the minimum
as soon as possible.

By vote of 36 to 81 the senate
voted in favor Of the lock system
of canal at Panama. The presi-
dent IN his message recommended
this system, and the house by
big majority, also favored that sys-
tenn. On the other hand the board
of consulting engineers consisting
of thirteen members, had by a vote
of eight to five recommended the
sea level type, and the majority
report of the senate committee on
lnteroceanic canals also favored
the sea level. Had the senate sug-
tanned tie maj ority report Of its
committee a deadlock would have
been produced in congress and the
only way that progress could have
been made would have been for the
president to take the responsibility
Oh going anead under the authority
given him by congress at its last
session. Nothing now stands in
the way of progress and it is pre-
dlcted that the canal can be COM
pleted il from eight to ten years.
Sen, Kittredge was the leader of
the forces in favor Of the sea- level
type, and whether his conclusions
were right or wrong, his speech in
support Of his theory is conceded
to be the best presentation of facts
bearing on the question that has
yet been given.

gether when she saw this nan. Prob
ably he would want Fred, who was
eleven years old. 1t would be a shame
to see so good boy 60 to such a
place.
She threw q shawl over her head
and stepped to the door. Then she
went back and sat down by the win
dow.
Il could have bed for him up
stairs" she thought. "And he could

believe I'll go over anyway"
Farmer Burnham was talking very
loudly to Fred when she went into the
dark, gloomy kitchen. The boys face
was white and his eyes filled with
tears as he looked at Bessie, his Sis
ter.
You can't have him." said the little
girl, choking back her sObs. Hes all
we've got left. and we're going to keep
him"
"Ho, ho!' laughed MIR. Burnham,
well see about that The sooner we
! have the papers made out the better l
reckon" And he made his way toward
MI: Randall.
Erred, would you rather come with
me!'
1t was Miss Martins voice, and Fred
grasped her hand eagerly, while his
sister cried: "Oh, do 60 with her,
Fred!'
I'D rather do it, Miss Martin. if
you could get along with me-" said the
boy, earnestly. "Id try hard to help
what could"
Miss Martins face lighted up as she
listened This was a new experience
to her. Her life had been wholly cen
tered upon her own interests. She
could not help thinking Of it even in
the midst Of this excitement A new
feeling swept over her. How selfish
she had been! Would God forgive
her?
While these thoughts were passing
through her mind she was making her
way toward Mr.. Randall. Would she
be too late. No; Mr.. Burnham had
been called in another direction. She
pulled the poormaster's sleeve and
whispered hurriedly:
"I'll take Fred.
"All right" he~replied, and the deed
was done.
The proprietor of the village hotel
was talking to Bessie.
Don't you want to 60 and live with
me at the hotel?"'
mo, don't. l want my own home
and that is ALL"
But, child, you can't stay here; the
house is all empty, and you've got to

place, never;
''I'll take Bessie, too" she said. and
Mr.. Randall gladly agreed.
Il can have bedroom and q tiny
kitchen added to my house instead of
parlor," thought Miss Martin, land
can take the old kitchen for a living
room. l don't really need a parlor,
anyway"
And now what about little Ray
There he sat, seemingly unconscious
of all that was going on around him,
printing some words on a piece of
cardboard. Ray was only seven years
old. He would need care for a long
time, perhaps all his life, for he was
not strong In body. He was fond of
books and flowers and shy and reti-
cent. He held up the cardboard at
length and looked at the words he had
printed. They were: Trust in the
Lord"
Nobody wanted Ray. He could not
be Of much use anywhere, and 1t was
decided that he must 90 to the county
farm.
"I'll take him home with me to-
night" said Mr.. Randall, land send
him away tomorrow morning"
Sitting around Miss Martins table
at supper that night very little was
said. Fred had filled the wood box,
brought water, and made himself use
full in various ways; but now he was
thinking of his little brother. Bessie
could hardly keep back the tears.
Miss Martin could not help noticing
the children's faces. and altogether it
was not cheerful company.
AS they arose from the table there
was a knock at the door, and. Miss
Martin opened it to confront Mr.. Ran
dali.

"Why, no."

mo, there is no use locking it: it's

You stay here, children" said Miss
Martin, kindly; 'I'll be back in a few
moments"
Then she slipped over to the little old
house, and, as quietly as she could.
peered into every room. There, in
the half twilight, she found Ray at
last half-lying, half-kneeling on the
bare floor, in the little room where he
used to sleep. In his arms was the
cardboard on which he had printed:
'Trust in the Lord"
The boy was talking, and she lis

THE LITTLE ANIMALS.

The bay mare stands at my kitchen
door,
And saucily shakes her head
For a bite Of apple, pinch of salt
Or a sugared crust Of bread.
But, oh, for the little wooden horse
| found in a corner to-day.
And the little groom that straddled him
And rode him out to play.
Old Rover maps on the shaded porch.
While his great, brown, kindly eyes
Follow ME to the golden gate
And back to my bread and pies.
But, oh, for the cotton dog on wheels
That romped on the velvet floor.
And the little master that shall come
And play with him no more.
The Spanish cock with the crimson comb,
When he hears my feeding call.
He answered with a flap of wings
And a crow from the garden wall
But, oh, for the plaster cock that crowed
When my baby pressed the spring
My tiny poultryman that hauled
Him round upon string!
love the calves in the pasture lot
And the cattle in the barn.
The geese that squat by the water
trough
And gable through the tarn.
But, oh, when the evening shadows fall,
And the ache of the lonely dark,
turn to the painted animals,
In a little wooden ark!
And, one by one, l take them up.
And cuddle them to my breast,
For the love 5f the careless little Noah
That set them here to rest
Here by the sunny window-seat,
In a corner of his room,
Where curious roses climb and peep
And wonder into bloom.
l have mothered many an orphan lamb
For the faint and fallen eve,
And many Il downy duckling housed
From the weasel and the dew;
But now, that every mothers babe
On the farm is safe at rest,
l turn to the little wooden sheep
And fold them to my breast!

Two Women Authors.

Miss Mary Johnston, the celebrated
southern novelist, who is very ire
uuently in Washington, is sad ply
steal wreck, the, victim Of too siren
uous a success operating on a@frail
vitality. She said to number OF
people who met her this summer and
autumn at Warm Springs, Va, where
she had gone in search Of health. that
she never hoped to be we'll and strong
again, says the New Orleans Times
Democrat She is pale, pathetic lit
tie creature, with wistful appealing
face and large brown eyes, set intel
lectually far apart. She has realized
handsome profits from her books.
Another southern writer, Amelia
Rives, the Princess Troubetskoy, who
was in physical eclipse for number
of years, has renewed her youth and
uncommon beauty and looks like girl
of 16 instead Of the woman of 40 that
statistics show her to be. She ascribes
It all to the idyllic existence she leads
at her ancestral country home IN Viz
ginia, where she and her princely
husband love to dream away the hours.
Il believe entirely in the simple ltfe,"
exclaimed this charming woman. I'm
into bed at and out Of 1t at 7. What
would your fashionable women think
of such a regiment" she laughed. The
forceful beauty Of her recent poem
'Selene" is an advance in literary
strength and grace over anything the
lovely lady has ever done.

is not new, but so far as known it has
never been applied to horse.
Several weeks ago a valuable roam,
colt belonging to Purdy ran into
barbed-wire fence and lacerated ITO

to be serious and the usual methods
for healing were applied. For time

Purdy tried all the remedies he

finally he determined to graft live

therefore set box trap in the woods,
baited it with popple bark and car.
rot and caught lively jack rabbit
Purdy then undertook to etherize the
bunny, for fear that the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals,
which is particularly active in Rutland
County, would step in and make things
disagreeable for him. Not being an
expert in administering ether he killed
the hare
Later on he caught second rabbit
and was more successful, etherizing 1t
properly. When this had been done
slit was made in the skin along the
side and the fur pulled back far
enough to cover the sore on the colts
shoulder. The wound was then bathed
with a solution of corrosive sublimate
TO sterilize it and the rabbit bound in
such way as to completely cover the
same. The skin was then stitched to
the horses hide and the colt was
swung off his feet that he might not
lie down and crush the hare.
When bunny came to his senses he
seemed astonished, but made no eff
fort to get away. The colt looked
around at him in equal surprise, but
the warm body added to his comfort
and he offered no objection. The hare
was fed regularly and for the most
part remained quiet. 1t was necessary
to bind down his hind legs, as he was
given to kicking, but, on the whole,
he took matters philosophically.
