industry n he has lot finched from

Twenty years ago Archibald d. Cook
decided to cast his fortunes with the
people Of this commonwealth and
Douglas was the fortunate city Of his
choice. His principal work in life has
been of a clerical nature, Converse
county has retained him as its clerk
for fourteen years last past and the
people there testify in the most EN-.
phatic II to his ability, honesty
AND energy. Fourteen years as county
clerk has given him rare experience
for any public position in the state.
1t has supplied the groundwork for the
official duties he will assume after the
first of next January.
Mr.. Cook has had a son in the state
university during the past two years
and takes great pride in the education
al institutions Of the state. He has
one other son and three daughters, a
delightful family.
AS Mr.. Cook passes among the peo-
pie of the state, making his canvass
for the office of state superintendent
of public instruction, they will find him
a pleasant, agreeable, intelligent gen
tleman, one whom they will make no
mistake in electing to a responsible po-
sition. Elsewhere in this issue may

Chancellor Buchtel of the Denver
university, who has just been uomi-
mated by the republicans for governor
Of Colorado, has given a ringing letter
OF acceptance to the political literature
of that state. The spirit of a square

ment. From present indications the
republicans will carry Colorado by a
good round majority. There is some
local |dissension in the party, it is true,
but the democrats are afflicted in the

Washington, Sept. 25.-Are the west
ern states, through their own activity
and the assistance ot congress, once
more To become at some future day
the home OF the bison and otner big
game which the last few decades have
almost exterminated? This is a ques-
% which only time can answer, but
the fact remains that since Mr.. Roose
welt has been president there mas been
a greater federal activity than ever be
lore toward protecting and saving
% last approaching determination
the big game OF the country.
President as Western Man.
OF course, as is generally admitted
this is in a large part due to Mr.. Roose-
velt's early western ranching and his
~weIknown fondness Tor the wild ami
mails OF the country. The big stick has
been used in their defense during Mr..
Rooseyelts administration just as
strenuously as in many other causes.
Nor have the results been merely the
oretical, in the shape Of so many ma
tional laws printed uselessly in law
books. The idea has been to aid the
west in Its rehabilitation along these
lines, and actual results have been &C
complished.
Many Big Game Preserves.
1t is not generally known, for exam
pie, that thirteen big, national game
preserves have been set aside by Uncle
Sam. Reading from the lesson OF the
big game in the Yellowstone National
park, where it has been demonstrated
that the fast-disappearing animals can
be saved from determination if the
proper steps be taken, congress has
authorized various similar preserves
throughout the country, most of them
in the west.
Thousand Buffalo Left.
One may be staggered by the figures,
which show that of the millions of bi.
son which once roamed the western
plains, only about one thousand are
now left in the world. But the fact
that the small herd in the Yellowstone
park has more than doubled within a
few years is taken as an augury OF
what may be hoped for.
Figures on Game.
The federal government also now
maintains in Washington as a part OF
the agricultural department a bureau
which handles only figures and infor-
nation concerning game. The work
which it is doing with the backing OF
a g%ameIoying president, coupled with
the efforts Of various states, renders
the hope of the man who expects the
preservation Of the big game of the
west something more than the dream
of a cheerful optimist.

MOTOR-CAR MECHANISM.
propulsive Power Is Obtained
Through the Process OF
Explosion.

The working principle of the motor
which has given the automobile this
wonderful new life is, roughly, the
principle of the rifle, says the Amer
lean Illus trated Magazine. The charge
a gas is the equivalent OF the gun
powder, and the piston is the bullet;
the gas is exploded and the piston flies
forward, and the piston rod delivers its
motion to the crank shaft of the steam
engine. In the steam engine the
steam works against both sides of the
piston; in two revolutions of the fly
wheel the steam presses against the
piston four times In the explosion
engine, according TO the prevailing
system, the gas operates against only
one side of the piston (the end OF the
cylinder through which the piston rod
works is completely OPEN, and there
is an explosion but once in two revo-
buttons of the fywheel-that Is, thers
is but a single explosion to four move
ments of the piston. Those four move
ments are the power stroke (caused
by the explosion in the cylinder)
which supplies the energy to drive the
automobile and the force required to
complete the three non-power strokes;
second, backward stroke which
pushes the exploded gases out of the
chamber through a valve which opens
for this purpose; third, a forward
stroke which sucks the charge of gai
into the chamber through an inle
valve, and, fourth, backward strok'
which congresses the gas, for com
preston is necessary to secure the bes
energy of the gas. The fifth stroke i
