-Four State Tickets.

Last Wednesday was the last day
in which nominations required to be
filed with the secretary Of state could
be filed. When a congressional or
state senatorial district is wholly with
in a single county or city the nomina-
ton is not required to be filed. The
list shows four state tickets, republic
an, democratic, prohibition and 80
cialist.
In the senatorial districts no NOM
ination is reported by the democrats
from the fourth district. This is the
district from which John G. McKin-
ley, who was elected without opposi-
tion, resigned to become lieutenant
governor. Hon. Fred S. Hudson, of
Chillicothe, is the republican nominee
in the fourth district and, like Nc
Kinley, will be elected without oppo-

Gen. Pershing Wednesday reported
his arrival at Vancouver from Japan,

Manchuria during the late war.
It is not expected that Gen. Bell

After few weeks of occupation, the
operations of the American troops in
Cuba will become a matter of not
much more than routine, and Gen.
Bell will be of much more value in

20, where is my wandering boy to-
night?" has been sung thousands Of
times with wonderful tenderness and
pathos, but how many of the singers,
or hearers, ever gave heed to the per-
tinent inquiry of the song? Statistics
are frequently published showing that
the great majority of our boys spend
their nights away from the better in
auences of home. As they grow into
youth and early manhood they seem
to grow into the world and worldly
ways. If the singers plaintive ques-
ton could be answered publicly in
any ordinary meeting where the song
is sung, it would cause a tremendous
sensation, and many heart would
bow down in sorrow and pain. For
some reason it is just as well that the
nightly haunts of "the boys" are not
specifically mentioned in local public
meetings, and yet the matter is one OF
common report. The boys are too Of

Too many of US are looking for
ward to happiness in the future years
instead of getting all the enjoyment
possible out of the present. 1t is well
to remember that the time never will
come, in this world, when we shall
have everything we want just where
and when we want it. The only way
to be happy is to enjoy all we have to
the utmost as we 60 along. 1t is
right to lay up for old age in youth;
right to prepare for a rainy day, but
it is not right to bend all our energies
to this end and put off until the future
the happiness we might enjoy every
day. It is very common to see peo'
pie working and saving, denying
themselves all recreation and many
comforts, to enlarge their stock, to
save for their children, thinking that
when they have accomplished this
they will be happy and begin to take
comfort. The hOped-for point may
never be attained, or, if it is, sickness
or death may have come first and the
dear ones whom We expected to be
happy with may be gone forever.
