j. 4. Watson of Phelps county,
whilOm candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for State Senator
in this district, has Withdrawn
from the race. Our Democratic
exchanges mention this fact, but
so far as we have noted none
of them give Mr.. Watson's reason
for withdrawing. He finds from
the little experience nc has had
that the pursuits of law offer him
more congenial occupation than
the ''dirty politics" lac would be
required to engage in should he
continue to press his claims for
political prefcrmcnt. Mr.. Watson
has Il conscience too quaimlsh fol
a Democrat, particularly Mis-
Democrat. What seems most
strange to us was that he expected
to find the politics of his party
otherwise than he did.

REORGANIZATION
OF THE FIELD AND
COAST ARTILLERY

Washington. March 3o.-Complete re-
organization OF the coast artillery and
the separation OF the field and coast ar
tillery is contemplated in a bill OF Rep
resentative Hull OF Iowa, chairman OF
the house committee on military affairs,
has introduced at the request OF Secre-
tary Taft and the chief OF stan, Lieuten-
ant General Bates Al present the coast
and field artillery are under the chief OF
artillery. General Miles, and both are
organized into batteries, but have no
regimental organization.
AS the field artillery and the coast ar
tillery are entirely unrelated and have
wholly different duties the war depart
ment desires that the field artillery shall
be organized as the cavalry and infan-
try are and shall be governed as those
branches OF the service are. Consequently
the bill provides for Its organization into
six regiments with two battalions each
and each battalion is TO contain three bat
teries.
The coast artillery is to continue with
the battery as the unit OF organization
and is TO be under the direction OF the
chief OF artillery, whose title IL To be
changed TO chief Of coast artillery. The
chief officer commanding the coast ar
tillery i5 still TO be a member OF the
general STAFF as the chief OF artillery Is.
A marked increase in the size OF the
coast artillery is provided for in the bill.
The number OF men in that branch Is
about 1900 and the bill provides that
IL may be increased TO 19,l47 Provision
Is also made for additional special grades
among .-.e enlisted men and for increased
pay for electricians and other skilled men
necessary to coast defence work. Much
trouble Is experienced iIr holding me-
chanics and other skilled privates re-
quired by the coast artillery and conse-
quently the portion of the bill offering
special inducement TO men OF this class
is regarded by the war department as
one OF It's most important features.

STANDARD OIL PROSPERITY

OF all investments now offered the
public, none perhaps is so certain to
produce quick and large profits as the
stock of the Self Threading Sewing

manufacturers of this wonderful
needle have monopoly OF the bust
ness, and having already larger de-
mand than they can meet, and as the
profits on needles is simply enormous
about 600 per cent-owners OF stock
in this concern are more than likely

dollars that you'd like to invest at
something like 10 per cent to begin

BECOMING MANIFEST.

Can anyone deny that there is q
strong and growing sentiment for
tariff revision and reciprocity in
the face of the recent election re-
turns? Two of the most eminent
stand patters in the two strong re-
publican states, James L. Nc
Cleary of Minnesota and John i.
Lacey of Iowa went down to de-
feat. They were not new mem
bers. Both had been in Congress
score of years. Both were skill
full campaigners and shrewd poll
ticians, none better in the United
States. Both had rendered eminent
service to their party and country.
Their private lives were beyond re-
proach. No scandal ever attached
to their public careers. Two years
ago no one would have had the te-
merity to predict the defeat OF
either of these men. They were
both the authors of their own un-
doing. Mr.. McCleary boldly de-
clared that the only safe revision
of the tariff was a revision upward
and that "reciprocity was sound
ing brass and a tinkling cymbal.
Mr.. Lacey, proudly declared that
''He was a standpatter from Stand
patterville," and that reciprocity
sswas the bastard child of free
trade" Their constituents had
other views. They chung to the
old fashioned theory that it was
the duty of a representative to
voice the views of those he rep
resents. The defeat of these two
men was simply reputation OF
doctrine that. should never taken
foot IN on American soil that "The
king could do no wrong"

THE LESSON OF THE ELECTION.

The election results were a
distinct loss to the republicans and
a marked gain for the opposition,
and yet, excepting in cases where
strong personalities prevailed, as in
Minnesota, whenever progressive
republicans were nominated they
received the usual majnrities In
every case where republican can
didates stood for the National
policies of progress that were SO
strongly urged upon the party by
the Herald during the last year
they were successful and in every
instance where they ''stood pat"
they were ether defeated or had
notice served on them in the way
of reduced majorities which, we
think, will cause them to sit upland
take notice.
There are certain things that
must be done by the republicans in
congress this year OF at least before
another congress is elected, OF
there will be swinging to the
opposition that will sweep the
republican party from power. The
tariff must be revised, reciprocal
relations entered into with foreign
nations where such action, is pos
sible, in order that our trade may
be extended, the rate bill must be
strengthened, the denaturized alco-
hol law amended so that the oil
trust cannot monopolize the product
as they seem liable to do under
present ruling and other reforms
must be put in force.
In the matter of state legislation
it is up to the republican members
of the legislature to make good.
Our tax laws should be amended
and enforced so as to make conceal
able property pay its just share of
the burdens of taxation, the
principle that every dollars worth
of property no matter what its
character should be pay an equal
amount of taxation should be rigid.
ly enforced. A reasonable freight
rate based on the present value OF
the railroads should be provided
for. Laws should be passed and
can be passed doing away with
discrimination in matters of
transportation.
Official passes should be abolished
and fiat two cent passenger rate
established. Good roads and
drainage should receive careful
attention. Junkets and pleasure
trips at the expense Of the state, SO
common in the past, should be
