their heads are not big enough to keep them from

I LISTENED lately to a very pointed pin talk bv

a good PIN must have at least three things:
a point OF sufficient hardness and sharpness to
penetrate whatever 1t is intended TO pierce a head
to push and to keep it from going too far and s,f-
tclent stiffness and strength of metal to keep it
from bending too much or breaking too easily.
Like the pm, every business man should have
point the ability to focus to concentrate his ener-
EeS SO as to bring all his powers bear in exactly
the right spot at exactly the right time and the
point must be sufficiently hard to withstand the
pressure behind and to penetrate the obstacle in

the expedition to pursue its scheme, and sent a
gunhoat the archipelago to prohibit the Nc,na 5
people from landing This stopping of the advcn-
turous spirits who had the project in hand put an
end To their picturesque undertaking, To the great
disappointment OF the British public.
The venture started on the faith Of a
story told to man named Griffith formerly a

Jones, master of guano carrying vessel which
once loaded there In wandering about the
land Jones discovered stones which he be-

only few, believing them to be OF little or no
value On reaching England however he
accidentally found that they were diamonds =
and when he made his next trip he brought
back a large parcel of the stones, which he
showed to Griffith, who pronounced them da-

A GOVERNORS BREAK.

Gov. Buchtel, the new Republican
governor of Colorado, the handle of
whose name is D. D., l.. L. D., said in
that portion of his message to the
legislature urging the enactment of a
local option law, IF a majority of
the people in any community want the
open saloon they have the right to
have it." No Prohibition candidate
for governor would have made such a
statement. A learned Indiana Judge
has just declared that the legislature
has no right to legalize the liquor traf-
fic. This decision seems eminently
wise. Whether it shall be upheld by
the higher courts or not, the right of
the legislature to prohibit the liquor
traffic is not questioned. It's duty to
do so is equally clear. The protection
of the people from the deviltry of the
saloon is no six-mile-square job. The
legislature is the law-making body of
the state. If every voter in a COM
munity but one favors the saloon, that
one has the right to look to the legisla-
ture for protection Tor his property
and for his life and that of his fam
lily from the menace OF the saloon. If
license is the policy of a given state,
the legislature may we'll empower a
community to free itself from the
wrong, but to authorize it to vote the
enOrmity upon itself and it's citizens,
never!
