There's Just No. Use in Sobbing.
1t is estimated that the hard freeze of
last week destroyed 300 car loads of
grapes in the vicinity of Lawton, but
the growers seem to be accomplishing
in the matter, the majority of them be-
ing optimistic. One man said that if he
got one good crop in 10 years, he would
make more money than he could in gen.
eral farming, and our fruit growers will
agree with him in this.

THE RESULT.

The result of the election in Meade
county last Tuesday was a surprise
to many, more particularly the large
majorities received by the winning
candidates. For Representative,
S. d. Adams democrat, defeated
Geo. B. Cones by 272 majority, 2oS
in Meade county and also carried
Seward county by 4 majority. Sulli-
van for County Attorney, beats F.
Marshall, the republican candidate,
by 43 in the county, while Ormond
Hamilton for Treasurer defeats
Desmarias, republican, by 317 ma
jority; Presley, republican, defeats
Dalgarn for County Clerk 15o; John
Randolph democrat, defeats Mr..
Ball for Probate Judge 1872. John
Elliott, democrat, leads Scott, for
Clerk of Court 1919. Shelley Price,
democrat for Sheriff leads Pinnick
1874. Florence Smith, republican,
for Register defeats Talley by 81
votes; Ruth Bennett, democrat,
leads in majorities having 342 over
Reay. Fee, democrat, is elected
Coroner by I63, Black, republican,
Surveyor by 167. Billy Jobling,
democrat, is elected Commissioner
in the Ist district over Vol Pinnick.
W., A. Harris, for Governor,
carried the county by 22 majority,
the other majorities we did not get
but will give tabulated vote next
week.
While in Meade county most all
the successful candidates are demo
Gratis, the contest was by means
political one, nor can the victory be
called a democratic victory. The
fact is that few bosses have been
running the republican party in
Meade for the past several years
and all the independent republicans
thought it was time to knock them
out and the only way to do this was
to vote for the opposition candidates
which they did, and we all appreci-
ate the support given to the victor
ious candidates. 1t was was fight
between bosses and the common
people and the people won as they
always will when they get stirred up
as they are, not only in Meade
county but all over the great state
of Kansas. Bosses and machines
may and do manipulate caucus
or convention and name candidates
but the people are not bound by
these bosses or machines and SO
showed it by their votes at the polls
last Tuesday in Meade county and
In the state as we'll.
| Coming from 10000 majority
down to a few hundred ought to
convince the politician that the
people are awake and another such
ljolt will put them out of business.

For the same month in 1904 the
total enrolment was I22 and the
cases of tardiness were 43.
The attendance this month in the
primary room has been poor be-
cause of the number of cases of sick

D1sCovERER of GREAT SALT LAKE
Outing Magazine.

Jim Bridger stands forth as the most
conspicuous figure in the brief but
glorious region of the trapper and
trailmaker in the Far West. The
greatest fur hunter and the greatest
pathfinder of them all, and possessing
the most intimate knowledge of the
Indian nature ever vouchsafed a
white man, Bridger will grow in
stature as time goes on and accurate
history is written.
No part of the great Rocky noun
tain country held secret from Jim
Bridger. He was the first white man
after John Golfer, to view the won
ders of Yellowstone park, and the first
to look on Great Salt Lake. Seeming
ly bearing charmed life, he wander
ed through the lands of many Indian
tribes, some times fighting the red
men, but more often living their life
and finding the solace of true brother
hood at the log fire. Every mountain
Jim Bridger climbed, every stream he
crossed, and every game trail he fol-
lowed, was written down in the most
marvellous memory ever granted a
plainsman. As a result, years later,
when the white men, bold but blum
dering, sought the easiest paths over
the mountains, Jim Bridger showed

A MAGAZINE AND a MAN.
Walla Walla Union.

At last the Northwest has maga-
zine that is worthy. For several
years the Pacific Monthly has been
published at Portland. It's publisher
managed by the hardest work to issue
it every month and place it on the
market, but it was read by very
limited clientele and in no sense pros
pered. It failed utterly to fulfil its
mission, and was creditable neither
to its owners, nor the section in
which it stood as the sole magazine
publication.
About six months ago change in
its editorial department was made
and in the brief space of time which
has elapsed it has made a wonderful
advance and now stands as the lead
ing magazine of the Pacific Coast.
New blood is responsible for the re
generation of the Pacific Monthly; in
telligent, Industrious blood.
Its new editor, the man who is MAX
ing it one Of the representative pub
locations, is Arno Dosch, young
newspaper writer with no previous
magazine experience. He belongs to
one of Portland's old families and
gained by inheritance the best gifts of
mind and character. A graduate of
Harvard, class of '04, he returned to
Portland and became a member of
the Oregonian staff. His work at
tracted attention and last summer he
was offered the by no means alluring
task of making a real magazine out
of the Pacific. He has already sue
ceeded to an amazing degree. His
work has just fairly begun. He is
smart enough to appreciate his op-
portunity. He is able to accomplish
his task. Both Arno Dosch and his
magazine are worth watching.
They are growing like the proverbial
green bay tree.

SENATE TO CURB ROOSEVELT.
portland Journal. J

There has been no more important
political step in recent years in Wash
ington.than that decided upon by lead
ing members of the senate, without
regard to party, with reference to the
propensity of President Roosevelt to
act on his own responsibility without
reference to congress. 1t was definite
ly decided that Roosevelt will be curb
ed effectually. Whether this will be a
peaceful process will rest entirley
with the president.
The senate is going to investigate
every act of the president that is con-
sidered unconstitutional or as invad-
ing its prerogatives. and as the first
step proposes to inquire at great
length and with much formality into
the action of Secretary Taft, under
instructions of the president, making
the now famous agreement to main
tain the parity of the silver coinage
of the republic of Panama with the
money of the United States.
The first sign of this rebellion of
the senate was shown when Senator
Kitteridge told President Roosevelt
three weeks ago that he had better
prepare for the fullest sort of investi-
cation of his acts in connection with
the Panama canal.
The next sign came when the SEN
ate, without a dissenting vote, adopted
resolution introduced by Senator
Bailey of Texas, directing the finance
committee to inquire into the circum-
stances of the agreement for the
maintenance of the parity of silver
money in Panama. The senators
claim that the president has prac-
tically made an illegal treaty.

ATHENA, JANUARY 16, 1906

Two-thirds Of the United Stat es
senators will come up for reelection
within the next three years and of
this total "a are republicans. This
fact is likely to have considerable in
fuence upon the ultimate stand taken
this winter by the senate on measures
advocated by the president and en-
dorsed by the people. 1t does not
necessarily mean that the senate will
fall in line and follow the lead of the
president, but it points to such action,
aud the wise observers, after study
ing the situation, think they can see
the senate supporting the president on
the large issue now up for considera-
tion. During the first week of the
session it looked very much as if the
Senate would take issue with the
president on many important quest
ions of legislation. There were un-
pleasant words regarding the Panama
canal; there were murmurings about
the presidents course regarding Santa
Domingo and behind it all consider
able private comment upon the presi-
dents railroad rate policy as outlined
in his message. Many senators have
reached the conclusion that the presi
dent is reoklessly usurping the
powers of congress to some extent,
and they have displayed evidence of
ugliness on that account. For time
it looked as though there would be
revolt. But will there be? Rather,
will not the senate fall i'll line and
follow the lead of the president?
1t is serious thing for the party in
power to break with its president, and
such move is more apt to injure
those senators and representatives of
the insurgent class than it is to injure
the president. What is more, the
party in power must suffer from any
such revolt. These things are being
carefully weighed, and there are those
who now predict that there will be
no break between congress and the
president, unless it be on the railroad
rate issue, and even on that issue a
compromise is more likely than an
open rupture There has never been
any danger of break between the
house and the president. Members
of the house of representatives are
chosen for only two years at a time,
and they are accountable directly to
the people.

hope OF getting his rails across the
