PATTERSON'S
FIRST SPEECH
WILL BE DELIVERED IN NASH.
WILLIE ABOUT SEPTEMBER
THE 18th.

Word was received by the State
Democratic headquarters Friday from
Congressman Patterson who is in
Washington, to the effect that he
would be ready to open his campaign
by the middle of September. While
the date has not yet been definitely
decided upon it is altogether probable
that the first speech of the Democratic
standard-bearer will be delivered in
Nashville on Saturday night, Sept Is.
The opening speech will probably be
delivered at one of the theaters, al
though the details will not, of course,
be arranged until after the date has
been definitely determined upon.
For some time the place and date
for the opening of the Democratic
campaign has been under considera-
tion at Democratic headquarters, and
number Of points have been discuss
ed, but Nashville, being the capital of
the State and the banner Democratic
county of Middle Tennessee, will
probably be accorded the honor 1t
is believed that better results can be
obtained and the speech can be more
largely advertised and reach a larger
number of people by opening in the
city than by going to country town
Should Nashville be selected it will
be the first time in many years that
the campaign has been launched in
city. Two years ago the first speech
made by Governor Frazier was al
Jackson on Sept. 5. -Four years age
/ the campaign opened at Winchester

MORMONS In
MEXICO
Another Large Tract Of Land Pur.
chased for Colonization Pur.
poses.

MEXICO CITY, Sept. Mormon
representatives have purchased an
other large tract of land in Mexico.
Some time ago they purchased for
colonization purposes a large tract of
land in the State of Mexico and an
other in the State of Oaxaca, and
within the last few days have closed
deal for 100000 acres of rich land
in the Fuerte River Valley of the
State of Sinaloa. 1t is said to be the
plan to send 10000 Mormon families
from Utah, Colorado and Nevada into
Mexico.
A short time ago Mormon interests
secured from the Mexican Government
a concession covering the manufac-
ture of beet sugar in Mexico. It is
to invest 100000 in gold In
the industry.
Mormon investments in Mexico have
extended over several years and the
heads of the church are entirely sat
lsfied with the possibilities of the re-
public.

BRYAN'S TRIBUTE
TO THE HEN

We have in our trip about the world
the past seven months been afraid of
the raw vegetables; we have distrust-
ed the water, unless it was boiled, and
we have sometimes been skeptical
about the meat. The butter has not
always looked inviting, and our fond
ness for cream has not been increased
by the sight of the goats driven from
door to door and MIXED in the pres
ence of the purchaser. The bread was
not a rival for the Vienna brand, and
the cooking has not been up to West
ern standards. But the hen-long life
to her! She has been our constant
friend. When all else failed we could
fall back upon the boiled egg with a
sense of security and a feeling of sat-
isfaction. If l am not henceforth a
poultry fancier, l shall return with an
Increased respect for the common, ev-
cry day barnyard fowl. There are
many differences between the East and
the West-differen6es in the race
characteristic, differences in costume.
differences in Ideals 81 life, of GOV,
einment and of relisiea, but we ali

WHAT HIGH LICENSE DOES.

If anybody tries to make you be-
lieve high license" is temperance
measure, a good thing for the people
and bad thing for the saloon. read
to him the following candid editorial
comment just published in the leading
liquor traffic champion of Ohio, the
Wine and Spirit News, of Columbus:
/ while we do not now and never
did approve of such thing as the ST.
900 saloon tax, believing it to be out
rageous, If not highway robbery,
nevertheless it is law and will proba-
bly, remain one. At the same time
there never was law enacted that
did not have, good features attached to.
it, so it is possible that it may have
some. For instance, it cannot be de-
MED that an immense revenue will ae-
crue to the state, making the liquor
business of Ohio indispensable to the
state 1t will be more difficult to assail
the traffic from legislative standpoint
in the future. This is and was the
argument employed by DR.. Norcross,
leading Methodist divine in this state,
who made bitter attack on the Akin
bill in the Western Christian Advo-
cate. Legislatures of the future will
not be so hasty in listening to every
crank and every crank organization
that comes along with a plant about
the liquor traffic. The state will have
learned to lean on this revenue and
will not be in position to despoil itself
merely to please the whimsical no
lions of theorists and wild-eyed cranks.
In this report at least the $1,000 tax
will be benefit"

NEW COUNTY
OFFICIALS
QUALIFY AND TAKE CHARGE OF
THEIR OFFICES.

The court house has been the scene
OF unusual activity today and especial
ly has this been true of the Office of
County Clerk Hardin Tho mas. Clerk
Thomas and Circuit Clerk Nichols
were sworn IN Saturday. but Trustee
Thomas, CLERK Nichols and Sheriff
Webb, together with the newly elected
Justices and Constables were sworn in
today by County Clerk Thomas. and
all these new officers together with
their bondsmen had to be present in
his office at some time during the day.
All the newly elected officers took
possession of their offices and appear
ed thoroughly at home in their new
quarters. The affairs of Office were
of course natural to Clerk Thomas,
Register Lipscomb and Trustee Thorn
as, for they were thoroughly familiar
with their duties. Sheriff Webb's past
experience. made the work of his Office
easy. Circuit Clerk Nichols was the
only official without experience, but
he and his deputy, Mr.. Frank H.
Smith, took hold like veterans, and
appeared to know where to find things
and the erect answer to give all
seekers after information.

that it was found impossible to get the
majority of the committee together
at one time. Taking these facts into
consideration it was decided best to

Surprise was expressed here this
morning when it was learned that Mr..
Carl Wagner of this city and Miss Eliza
Murray of Rawlins had been married
a week ago last Saturday at Denver
and that the bride had returned to
her home at Rawlins. Mrs. Wagner
of this city, the mother of the groom,
is a devout Catholic, and she insists
that her son have a ceremony per-
formed by a priest Of that church.
Consequently, Mr.. and Mrs. Wagner
are now on their way 10 Cheyenne,
where a second ceremony will be per-
formd by Bishop Keane of the diocese
of Wyoming. Mr.. and Mrs. Wagner,
according to the present plans, will
visit at G%oldfield, New. before return
ing to Laramie, Mrs. Wagner being
very anxious that they spend the time
at her home at the corner of Fifth and
Garfield streets until their own home
at the corner of Sixth and Garfield is
ready for them. Upon their return to
Laramie they will be heartily wei
coined and warmly congratulated. the
bride being considered one of the
sweetest girls in Rawlins.

When to Go Home.

From the Button Qnd.) Pioneer:
When tired out, go home. When you
want consolation, 60 home. When you
want fun, go home. When you want
to show others that you have reformed,
go home and let your family get ac-
quainted with the fact. When you want
to show yourself at your best go home
and do the act there. When you feel
like being extra liberal go home and
practice on your wife and children
first. When you want to shine with
extra brilliancy go home and light up
the whole household To which we
would add, when you have a bad cold
go home and take Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and a quick cure is certain.
