Be that as it may, there are some
facts that have caused
the stalwart newspapers to take to the
woods. Some of them have sought Sc
clusion in the Businesses Of the most
swamps, and from thence
refuse to be enticed.
Hardly had the ballots been counted
when it was noticed that wherever La
Toilette went the men he favored were
elected usually republican, but some-
times democrats. Where candidate
had been false to the recent republi-
crn platforms, the junior senator OPP
posed him and he went down and out.
And this constitutes the so-called ir-
regularity of LaFoiiette: that he pre-
fers a good democrat to a bad repubh-
can.
On the other hand Senator Snooner
went to Oshkosh and defeat came to
local candidates, to Eau Claire and
both republican candidates for the as
sembly, and it is perhaps lucky that
Senator Noble, who presided at the
meeting is a follower.
Spooner went to other places with
with similar results, and finally to his
home town Qeaving out New Hamp-
shire) and there came defeat also.
So we have chance to size up the
two senators in the esteem of the peo-
pie, the common people, if you like
anyhow the voters.
If the junior senator has lost any of
his old time popularity with the multi
tude. recent events do not appear to
indicate. That he undertook the i'm
possible in the primaries. common
sense would dictate. Doubtless he
knew it was so-and so knowing took a
stand for principle, not for victory.
That Senator Spooner ever held pres
tige with the masses is not indicated by
the election records of the past-aild
that he possesses none of it now is
clearly shown by the line of defeats
that marks his movements few weeks
ago.
The republican party of Wisconsin
may seek harmony but harmony that
brings defeat is poor sort of thing at
best. But, seeking harmony or not,
he will not be disappointed who looks
for strenuous times at Madison this
winter.
The time has not come for harmony
and will not come until the especial
privilege" class goes over to some
other party. When that time comes
the Pfisters, Spooners, etcetera, will
have departed and the grandest success
will be with the republican hosts-and
harmony.

FINE HUNTING SEASON.
Nearly Everybody Cts HIS Share
Of Vents %.

Everyone but the newspaper people
has time to chase the elusive beasts
through woods and swamps, and this
year nearly all were success.u in
getting all the law all ows.
The season is pronounced goo3 one
with indications that deer are becoming
more plenteous from year to year.
This evident fact prevails in the face
Of the fact that the last two seasons
have seen more deer taken out of the
woods than il former years.
The state officials are reported to
have sail that this yer will show
greater results tLan ever before.

IMMENSE CONTINENT OF ICE.
Has Accumulated in Greenland fer
Untold Centuries.

The largest mass Of Ice In the world
is probably the one which fills up
nearly the whole of the interior OF
Greenland, where it has accumulated
since before the dawn Of history. 1t
is believed to now form block about
600,C00 square miles In area, and
averaging a mile and half In thick
ness According to these statistics,
the lump Of ice is larger in volume
than the whole body OF water IN the
Mediterranean; and there is enough
Of 1t to cover the whole Of the United
Kingdom OF Great Britain and Ireland
with layer about seven miles thick
IF it were cut into two convenient
slabs and built UP equally upon the en-
tire surface of gallant little Wales
Ii would form a pile more tkan 124
miles high. There Is ice enough In
Greenland to bury the entire area OF
The United States a quarter Of mile
deep.-Londc1 Tit-Bits.

aEAurY OF THE pHILIppINEs.
There Are Lovely, Cool Plateaus-Also
Marvels Of Scenery.

1t seems to me, says Hamilton
Wright, in Leslie's Weekly, that the
least appreciated feature of the
Philippines, is the diversity Of eli
mate. Though the Philippines are
all in the tropics, yet frequently
within a days travel one will come
upon strong climatic contrasts.
Whether you go to the lovely, cool
mountain plateaus or down to the
warmer cities of the sea level, you
will find that though there are the
changes of the seasons, still the eli
mate from day to day varies little.
By dressing properly one does not
feel the heat so much.
Manila, the hottest place in the
Philippines, is often intensely warm
in March, April and May. Yet
prostrations never come as they do
in New York in midsummer, and
above all there are cool nights
everywhere.
Perhaps no country in the world
possesses so many scenic marvels as
the Philippines; regions which, were
they known, would attract tourists
the world over. There is the beau
tiful Taol volcano, rising from the
middle of a lake; there are the vast
Cordilleras, not surpassed in beauty
and grandeur by any ranges in the
world; there are the wonderful
mountain plateaus and valleys COW
cred with seas of rich waving grass
and bordered by forested hogbacks
which project into them as capes
project into the ocean.
Here wild deer and boar roam in
great abundance, while occasional
of wild carabao move clumsily
over the ground. Perhaps for days
in these regions one may not see
a native. The island of Luzon
alone is over 700 miles long; most
the population live along the
sea coast; but were its wonderful
developed, many times its
present population might dwell
there in great prosperity.

SQUIRREL 80 MAIL.

The robbing of the United States
mail by a squirrel was a most un-
usual incident which occurred in
this city the other day, says a
Winona correspondent Of the st.
Paul Dispatch.
Martin Daszkowsk, one of the
Oldest mail carriers in the city, was
on his regular rounds and had
among his mail to be delivered an
advertising card to which was at
tached a large walnut, inside
Of which was the matter adver-
tised. A little squirrel, of which
there are many in Winona, seeing
the nut, jumped upon Mr.. Daszkow-
skis shoulder and running down his
arm with Lightning speed took the
nut and card from his hand and
then climbed a nearby tree, where
it investigated the contents of the
nut.
Fortunately, upon discovering
that the nut was not the kind it
wanted, the squirrel dropped it and
the card without damaging either
and they were later delivered to the
proper address.

[ oNDoN IFS OWN LANDLORD.
Worlds Greatest City Full Of Promise
for the Morrow.

London really stands for a new
idea in the world. 1t is a commu-
nifty with a conscious purpose. It's
purpose is far more than the build
ing of streets and sewers, the MAIN
tanning of an efficient police and
fire department, the care Of the
health and lives Of the people, says
Scribner's Magazine.
London is bent upon lifting its
people from ignorance, squalor, dis
ease and poverty. 1t has reared 500
new schoolhouses under the new
public school act which it fostered.
1t has opened 70 libraries. 1t has
founded 1000 educational scholar
ships. 1t has opened 5 public
baths and 10 polytechnics. There
are now 300 beautiful squares, 106
council parks and 1870 borough gar
dens.
London is said to be the green
est large city in the world. The
council has also RACED many slum
areas, and is erecting model homes
for 100000 Of its people. About the
city broad areas Of land have been
purchased on which cottages are to
be built for the better-to-do classes.
London is going to be its own land
lord. Not much has been done as
yet, it is true, but a big start on
the housing question has been made.
f. Democracy has indicated it
self in the English city. 1t has
found its fullest expression in the
London county council. The Lon
don Of tomorrow is as full Of hope
as the London of to-day is full of
misery.

THE CLOCK.

G. H. Brigden, a Los Angeles
matchmaker, has invented the first
timepiece ever made to run and to
keep time with a single wheel, and
the wheel is not a gear wheel, but
only a perforated disk, so hat the
clock might be called a gearless
clock, says the Pacific Qgtlo9kS, ,,,g
on two inclined plates takes the
place of pendulum and gearing.
This steel ball rolls over two incline
plates in just a minute, and rolls off
the lower plate into the lower hole
of the disk, at the same time releas-
ing the disk, which is always under
tension impaired to it by two ball
weights suspended in towers.
The disk carries 30 balls on one
side, and when released by the roll
ing Of the ball from the lower
plates against a locking device, the
disk turns the space of one hole. or
one minute, and brings the upper
most ball into position to roll on
the top plate and begin its zigzag
course down the two inclined plates
as did the preceding ball. Each
ball rolls over the plates once every
80 minutes.

Why BRIAR WOOD is SCARCE.

Worshipers of "My Lady Nico-
tine" who are thinking of replen-
ishing their pipe rack, will do well
not to tarry, for we hear that the
price of the briar root is to be raised
by 20 per cent, and this almost inn
%mediately. The news was confirm
ed by ]. S. Weingott, a New York
tobacconist.
"rhe increase in the price of
goods" explained Mr.. Weingott, sis
chiefly due to the advance in the
price of labor and the recent strikes
that took place on the continent.
especially at st. Cloud, in France,
which is the center of the trade in
cheap briar root pipes. Briar, as
it is known, or to give it its cor
rect name, 'bruyere,' comes chiefly
from Italy and from Corsica, and
the late earthquake and volcanic
eruptions have ruined hundreds Of
acres Of plantations in the Cam
pania and other parts of central and
southern Italy. Hence the scarcity
of the wood at the present time,
and, as an inevitable consequence,
the coming increase in price"
