in the Republican majority of
the Missouri delegation, and
notice WAS promptly served
that in future river appropri-
atoms. the whole thing was
not to be spent on the Mis-
sissippi, the Ohio and other
distant streams, bat that the
old Missouri was again on the
map, and must have her share.
To be sure, M appropriation
was obtained, for appropria-
lions for river work are only
made at intervals Of three
years. There was no Rivers
and Harbors Bill" last ses
sion, and consequently no
chance To get an appropriation
for our section. But the
movement Is well under way,
and the prospects for obtain
ing a goodIy sum for this
section IN the next Rivers and
Harbors bill is most filter
ing.
Right here, il is we'll TO
state that all Government APP
preparations for river work
are made for the purpose
of promoting commerce and
navigation, and it is not with
in the province of the Govern
ment To do river work solely
for the protection OF adjacent
lands. But a child ought TO
be able toreason that the prop
er establishment of "A channel
and the confinement OF the
river therein, means relief
from the shifting. cuts and
Ierosions such as are now swal-
lowing up thousands of acres
of the most valuable farming
lands in Missouri. That the
channel can be 30 established
and regulated Is no longer; a
matter OF doubt. The Chief
of the U. s. Corps Engineers,
In one Of his latest reports TO
the Secretary cf War, declares
that results Of experiments
made have been TO show with
out a doubt that II can be done.
And even after the neglect of
these many years, boats are
again beginning to ply between
st. Louis and Kansas City.
That the Government can
do this work, and that the
Government is able to do it,
cannot be gainsaid. There

people OF this section TO do il
TO keep in Congress men who
will obtain for them what is
rightfully their due. Your
Democratic representatives
did not do 1t. Now give ours

WHICH DID SHE PREFER2

When she entered the car 1t was easy
to see that she was very angry. Her
chin was high in the air and her lips
were set in a rigid line. The car was
crowded and every seat was occupied,
so she pushed her way up front with a
determination that gave further evil
dence Of her vexation.
She reached the front end of the car
just as a tall, good looking man rose,
and, lifting his hat, asked in a pleasant
voice: Wont you have this seat?"

young man was surprised, but sat down
again without speaking.
For about five minutes she rode along,
hanging on to the straps. Then the car
give a sudden jolt and she was thrown
unceremoniously into the young mans
lap. She blushed a vivid red, and
struggling to rise was almost on her
feet when another lurch threw her back
again.

same good-humored tone, "if you pre-

WHIPPING HORSES WITH RINGS
AND NOISE

with rings and with sound they
whip race horses in my state" said the
wooden nutmeg salesman.
How is IL possible" the feeder
asked, "to whip a horse with ring or
with an empty noise?"
"Ill explain" said the other. Com
necticut is a state of good and kind
people. These people, a great many
years ago. decided that horse racing
was not bad, but that the whipping of
horses in a race was wicked and cruel.
Accordingly they made It a criminal
offense in a race to larrup a nag.
And the result Of this law prohibit
ing the whipping of a single horse was
that every horse, as like as not, is now
whipped in our races.
"The jockeys, the day before the
match, go from stall to stall, and, jang-
ling a chain in one hand, ply the whip
like fury with the other. They whip
every horse to the music. of tangled
chain. Then, in the race next day,
when a jockey wants his horse to dig
out. he pulls length of chain from his
pocket and jangles it. The poor animal
instantly redoubles its pace. expecting,
of course, a heavy beating.
so Connecticut race horses are
whipped with sound. The ring they are
whipped with is called q spur ring; 1t
has a spur where the stone should be.
The jockey wears 1t with the spur
turned in until the race begins when
he turns the spur out, and, seated in
his sullky well over the horse, he does
nothing, apparently, but flip the nag
with the reins, but each FLIP means a
cruel cut with the spur ring"

HEARST PARTYs GRAND ENTRY

Through the channels Of yellow
journalism It is announced from San
Francisco that w. r. Hearst's Iude-
peudence league '1s preparing TO put
a full ticket in the field for the coming
election in California" The active
leadership Of the movement i'm this
state, az given out officially. has been
described as a well known lawyer
who up to the present has been promi-
nent in Democratic politics"
The newly installed boss of the brand
new Hearst party doffs his Democratic
raiment and dons his Independence
league attire by stating tersely that he
has cut loose from the local Democ-
racy and means to further the Inde-
pendence league in California by active
participation in the coming campaign
Mr. Hearst's manager promises that
the new party will "hl a long felt
want" He says: I'VE are not Demo-
Gratis and we are not Republicans. nor.
are we non-partissns," leaving the in
ference that the new concern is a sort
of political Maud" easily recognlz-
able by Examiner readers. The man
ager expresses the opinion that both
the old parties have been tried and
found wanting, so much so that the
people are tired of them both and want
something new
But It is w. r. Hearst's adieu to the
Democratic party, by the voice of his
California manager, to which partic-
ular attention is called LAS for the
Democratic organization, that is all
leaders and no followers; nothing is
left Of that but generals and colonies;
all the soldiers have abandoned the
colors and gone into other camps"
w r. Hearst is the only conspicu
Gus example of the class of Demo-
cratic traitors to whom his mouth
piece alludes. BY reason of Demo-
cratic patronage Hearst was enabled
to establish his string of newspapers
and it is by reason of Democratic votes
that he now holds seat in congress,
which he but rarely warns with his
anatomy
And thus the Hearst Independence
league makes it's grand entry into the
California political arena. Drum Major
Dwyer leads the procession, the
Hearst yellow newspapers are the
'tooters," Hearst hirelings are the
shouters and the following will be
chiefly such riffraff as may be at
tracted by the flow from the bung-
hole of Hearst's money barrel.

KERMIT R00SEvELT'S TRIP
TO MEDORA AND BAD LANDS
DAYS WHEN HIS FATHERS cow
BOYS SHOT UP THE TOWN
"reminiscences of Men Who Were
Famous in the Early Days of Mon-
tana-Why Roosevelt Left Medora
In Hurry

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 21.-Editor
Herald: A direct wire to the Times
this morning from Deadwood, S. D.,
says: with Capt. Seth Bullock and
party Kermit Roosevelt left yesterday
on the long overland horseback ride to
Medora."
In the long ago Seth was known as
Sitting Bull, chief of Robbers Roost,"
a hole in the wall at Virginia City,
Mont, where the political grafters met
who looted Montana in old territorial
days.
Medora is a town in North Decota
founded and built by Marquis De
Maurice, a wealthy, dashing and erratic
Frenchman. who named the town after
his beautiful American wife. De
Maurice built an immense abattoir at
Medora for the purpose, is he swore
of destroying the beef trust. His inten-
tion was to slaughter all the range
cattle at Medora and ship dressed beef
east instead of his cattle. He failed,
of course, lost his great wealth, left his
idolized little city a broken hearted
man and was assassinated in faf-away
Algiers. He was a man of indomitable
will, with the courage of a lion, a
veritable D'Artagnan, and was known
all over the COW country as a man
destitute of fear, asking no favor. with
reputation of having fought several
duels to a finish.
The Roosevelt ranch was situated not
far from Medora, and though De
Maurice was a bigger man than the
embryo president there was great
rivalry between them, chiefly on the
point of which should be king Of the
Bad Lands" or in other words, who
should be regarded as the most i'm
portant individual in the COW country.
Even at that early date Mr.. Roosevelt
showed a disposition to brook no OPP
position or rival will, The marquis was
of the same order of man, only little
more so, and everyone knew a clash
would come sooner or later.
Roosevelt's cowboys went to Medora
and shot up the town. De Maurice and
his men unhorsed them and kicked
them out. The next day the entire
force of the Roosevelt ranch, with
Teddy armed cap-a-pie, a la broncho
buster. rode into Medora and a-a-well,
they rode out again, but that calls for
another story.
Seth Bullock knows why Teddy rode
out Of Medora on that occasion. but his
boy, now riding in, does not.
Poor De Maurice, who in that In
stance established his claim as chief OF
all the Bad lands, died ANONYMOUSLY
and his unremembered bones now waste
away in dew and rain and sunshine
while RooseVelt-well that's the irony
of fate" ANGELENO.
