THE DESIRABLE TOWN.

The desirable town is one that is
live and prosperous. and one of the best
ways to help town become so is to
speak well of it. IL is true patriotism
and self interest as well to stand by
your town. As man who speaks i'll
of his family lowers both himself and
family In the estimation of others, so
does a man who cares little for his town
and community. The man who Is re-
spected by others respects himself and
patriotism begins at home. Another
way to help your town is to do all you
can to beautify it. Beautify your own
home all you can and then help beauti-
fly the street. Be friendly to everybody
and courteous to strangers. Your civil
ity will make good impressions which
are carried away and cherished. Never
forget that you are part of the town
and your department helps to make the
strangers estimate of the place. Buy
all you can at home. Every dollar that
is spent away from town makes il that
much poorer

On Thursday evening of last week,
Jas. Massie, Master of Pomona Grange,
and wife, came over to install the new
ly elected officers of Banner Grange.
Quite number of visitors as well as a
large turnout of members were present
and after the official business was com
pleted the good danes proceeded to get
ready delicious supper of oysters and
other goodies of which all were in haste
to partake. In fact the keepers of the
animal department were seemingly in
such great haste that his majesty, the
goat, a necessary adjunct to every up
to-date Grange, was turned outside,
after faithfully performing his duties
in connection with the initiative rites,
and there he was left to seek shelter
from the wind and rain, and later,
from the gaze of the awe-stricken
public. Meanwhile the worthy patrons
were peacefully devouring the contents
of their sOup-plates and discussing the
benefits of fraternity. The facts of the
case may never be known, but it is sup
posed that in an attempt to follow some
of the early departing members, His
dignitied person got fast in wire
fence which obstructed his pathway
and there he was compelled to stay the
remainder of the night. And being too
well bred to disturb the peace with
cries for assistance it was in this same
condition the passer-by next day saw
the edilapidated and half-starved animal
The fact that his hair was falling out
has been explained by some of the
witnesses to be due to his Majesty's
attempt to initiate the sisters by
wearing "rats" in his hair. After a
brief humiliation from being ridiculed
by the school boys, and others more
sympathetic, worthy patron living
near by discovered his destitute con-
dition and removed him to his private
quarters. 1t has been prophesied that
Mr.. Goat will presently die of old age
and undoubtedly his heroic riders will
erect a marble slab in memory of
"BILLY" whereby "forlorn and ship,
wrecked brother, seeing may take heart
again."

Leading Candidates For Governor:
Republican-James o. Davidson.

Milwaukee, Wis, Nov 3.-Despite
the strife which LaFollette stirred up
in the Republican ranks before the
convention. the party is expected to
stand together at the election, in
which case the reelection of Governor
James o. Davidson seems assured.
Davidson's opponent on the Democrat
ic side is John A Awkward. Madison
lawyer. The Socialists and Prohibit
tionists also have tickets in the field.
The platforms Of the two leading par
ties differ but little in the, main.
Both are for a continuance of the re-
forms inaugurated by LaFollette. and
especially for regulation Of corpora
tons by the state. Both parties pro-
fess to be original sponsors of these
reforms.

The contest has been one of unusual
interest Governor Cummins was re-
nominated after most bitter contest
in the Republican ranks His candi-
dacy has met with considerable ILL
concealed opposition among the stand
patters. 1t is predicted that Claude
r. Porter, the Democratic candidate,
will have the support of all the radical
standpatters and of the corporation
and railroad influence. On the other
hand, Cummins is expected to receive
the votes of many Democrats because
he has a consistent record of opposi-
ton to railroad domination OF Iowa

COLORADO.
Leading Candidates For Governor:
Republican-Henry A Buchtel.
Democratic-Alva Adams.
Independent-Ben b. Lindsey.

Denver, Colo, Nov. 3.-The present
campaign in Colorado is one of the
most picturesque waged anywhere in
the country this year. Corporation
domination and other issues are TO
the fore. The Democratic candidate
for governor is Alva Adams, who has
held the seat before. The Republican
candidate is Henry A. Buchtel, chan
cellor of the University of Denver.
In addition to these two there is a
third candidate in the field in the per
son of Judge Ben B. Lindsey, famous
as the judge of the juvenile court.
Judge Lindsey has pursued a vigor-
GUS campaign, and he is undoubtedly
factor to be reckoned with in figur-
ing on the result of Tuesdays cleo
ton. The women Of Colorado will
poll a larger vote than ever before,
and it is within the range of POSSIBLE
tiles that their votes will determine
the result of the contest. Chief JUS
tice Gabbert, Republican, is a candi-
date for reelection. He has been
charged with being under corporation
influence, and his presence on the
ticket is believed to weaken the
chances OF Republican success.
