Only three votes in the senate
against the railroad rate bill-one
republican and two democrats. 1t
must be pretty good measure to have
commanded such unanimous support.
Yet it won't please the disturbers of
the country's political peace. They
wanted to see the president and the
senate divided on the question. They
wanted trouble. and in North Dakota
the insurgent band we're hopeful of
such a disagreement as would enable
them to proclaim that the senate was
doing the bidding OF the corporations.
The insurgent clique will not dare to
impugn the motives Of Roosevelt, be-
cause they can see no personal
advantage in such course. They did
hope that they might continue to cast
discredit upon certain senators who
are OCCUPYING seats which they them
selves want to FILL Vain hope!

of Aunt" Brigham in the neighbor-
hood where she lived.
Secretary Long wore a tall hat that
day. and when he came into the house,
darkened to exclude the flies and the
heat, he put his hat, top down, on a
table. When he picked it up. after
concluding his call. he found that he
had placed 1t squarely in the center
of sheet Of flypaper, and the paper
was stuck on SO firmly that Aunt"
Brigham was Obliged to trim the
sheet around the edges OF the hat with
pair of scissors. as she would trim a
custard pie. Secretary Long left the
house with the fypaper adhering to
the top OF his hat.

When God Of old this orb had made,
And raised the earth from out the sea:
BE separate thou" thy Almighty said.
A land Of Hope and Liberty.
Let mountain. range and prairie wids
Roll DER thy face In majesty
From snow-capped hill to flowing tide,
Be thou the Land OF Liberty.
Sons! gather here from ev'ry land,
From bondage chains forever free.
And guided by Omniscient Hand
Let fly the nag Of Liberty.
Let truth abound and virtue reign, y
And strife and wrong thy borders fee.
To God, your Father. raise the Strain,
And sing the Song of Liberty.
In future years shalt thou arise,
Unique in earthly records be.
Let gladstone paeans cleave the skies
All hail! first Son of Liberty.

WASHINGTON AN ATHLETE.
History Shows That Father Of ON
Country Was Fond Of All
Kinds Of Sports.

When Washington was commander
In chief Of the army. on ono occasion
he went to the quarters of Col. Tim
othy Pickering. who had q negro serv.
ant named Primus. He found the
colonel absent, but to Primus' apol.
ogy replied:
1T does not matter. ] am greatly
In need Of exercise, and you must
help me to get some before your mas
ter returns"
Under Washington's direction, the
negro tied rope to q neighboring
tree, breast high. Primus was or.
dered to stand at some distance and
hold 1t horizontally extended. Wash
ington ran forward and backward for
some time. jumping over the rope a.
he came. and went until he was salts
fed with his exercise.
He learned fencing when quite
young. His teacher was an old sol
der. who had seen service in the
Inoies. His stone-throwing feats
across the Rappahannock, over the
Palisades. and to the top Of the Nat
ural Bridge In Virginia, are mentioned
by all his biographers.
Gen. Washington was q splendid
horseman. There was no animal he
could not master, and he never los:
his seat in the saddle. Fox hunting
was one of his favorite amusements
and at the meet" few Of his friends
or neighbors were better mounted than
he. He usually rode large, fiery
animal Of great endurance called
"Blueskin." The names Of some Of his
other horses were Climbing" wal
iant," Ajax" and Magnolia"
The names Of some of his hunting
dogs were vulcan" "Ringwood,"
Singer" "Truelove," "Music, !"
"Sweetlips." Forester" and Rock
wood" During the season he hunt
ed two or three times week. His
pleasure was not the ind, but the
hunt, for he admits In his diary that
the foxes nearly always escaped, but
the main end in view. excitement and
recreation, had been achieved.
