Somewhere along in 1917 some
chap predicted that there would be
no summer in 1907. Had he been
collaborating with me about two
weeks ago in hustling seven-hun-
dred pound syrup barrels I am
dead sure he would have readily
admitted that he had Ananias, as
a liar, skinned to the limit.
Senator Foraker says he will not
forgive his enemies, and the afore-
said enemies seem nightly tickled

Williams is a man, every inch of

does not stand for any of the things
that his opponent stood for which
makes his victory doubly comfort

and weeds. Several plants are said

manufacture of gas consumes an

The Milwaukee is building an
extension from Aberdeen, S. D.,
to Spokane, Wash. An interesting
feature of this new road is the fact
that the company is to expend
100000 in developing 10000
electric horse power on the st.
John River in Idaho. This power
will be used in taking trains over
the Bitter Root divide. In addi-
ton to the question of economy is
the question of taking the trains
thru fourteen tunnels, the long
est of which is nearly a mile, and
it is obvious that using coal as a
producer of motive power would
result in great Inconvenience.
