TRENTON. Dec. 10.-"If the demo-
cratic party wants me for its candi-
date for the presidency in 1908 it will
seek me; I shall never seek the office. :
President Woodrow Wilson, Of
Princeton university thus expressed
himself at his home when asked by a
reporter concerning his attitude to-
ward the movement launched in New
York a few days ago to make him the
democratic standard bearer two years
hence.
Wilson, "for a man to decide whether
he would accept a nomination for the
presidency that has not been offered to
him; but 1 cannot see how any patri-
otto American could refuse such an
offer, unless the burden upon his ply
steal system would be greater than
he could bear.

nothing has been said to me on the
subject I should not like to say any

the democratic party. You know. an
academician is apt to be rather con
sentative, and since the western
states seem to have got an overdose Of
Parker in 1904 1 am not sure that they
want any more conservatism.

office, and 1 never intend to be. If,
however, the democratic party should
call on me in the hope Of uniting the
discordant elements I could not be so
insensible to the honor as to decline.

Though l have never hald political

Cock crowers?'
Eyes, cock growers were employed
by the rich their town houses to
crow the hour. They crowed only the
rising hour for the most part, but dur

Causes Of Certain Dreams.
A psychologist was talking about

Every dream, like every laugh or
tear, has it's cause" he sad. Every
wellknown type of dream has cause
You dream, for instance, that you
are in church, or at the theater or on
the street, with hardly any clothes on
you, and you nearly die of shame. The
bed coverings falling off is the cause
of this dream.
You dream that a dog has bitten
you, or an enemy has given you a stab
with a knife. Some slight pain-a
cramp, a touch of rheumatism-is be-
hind all such dreams.
''Innumerable persons dream of fly

piration of sleep, great, deep bill,
lowy breaths, rising and falling rhyth-
mically are so akin to flying that they
bring visions of it to the sleeper's
mind.

bed causes dreams of painful effort, OF

Believe Death Accidental.

Miss Ida Kelsey was the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. George w. Kelsey, living
at 636 South First West street. She went
TO Los Angeles on the Elks' excursion
some time ago and has remained in that
city since. She wrote her mother few
days ago that she would be home Aug. /.
Her mother received a long letter from
the girl week ago and there was moth
ing in IL TO show that she was despond-
ent or i'll. Her relatives in Salt Lake will
not believe she committed suicide, but
assert that If she died from the effects
of carbolic acid, she was using the drug
as medicine and took an overdose.
Relatives wired to Los Angeles upon
receiving news of the girls death, for
particulars. No answer to this message
had been received at an early hour this
morning The dead girl is survived by
an aunt, Nephena Kelsey, 223 West Third
South and sister Mrs. George Cameron,
13S Eighth street. The body will be
brought to Salt Lake for burial. Before
going to Los Angeles she was employed
by the Union Paper Box company of Salt
Lake. She was well and apparently happy
when she left Salt Lake.
