than they found necessary.
And do you remember how the
Democratic newspapers had a rule
that they must not go to press with
out printing a picture of the president
as Little Willie?''
And then they started the story
that at the battle of San Juan hill
Theodore Roosevelt shot a Spaniard
in the back. And they made capital
out Of it.. And they kept it up until.
when Roosevelt visited Cripple Greek
Colorado, where everybody belonged
to the union or was run by it, they
threw stones at him as he marched in
the street.
And her the Democrats raised q
rumpus because the United States
kept the Philippines, but that is moth
ing to the one they would have raised
had they been given up.
Democratic opposition was respon-
sible for A~guinaldo and the after
remnants of rebels holding out as
long as they did.
And in all opposition of this kind
the Democrats have had as allies tne
socialists and anarchists. who are
zealously watching Tor some weak
spot in the government.
The sum and substance of all this
is that if wal should come between
the United States and Japan the eff
forts of the United States would be
badly hampered by the same forces
that have opposed heretofore, while
Japan would be united. Nowhere
more than in warfare is it shown that
in unity is there strength.

IF Japan Had a Democratic Party

If the United States and japan
should ever come to war, the Silver
state News desires to go on record
as saving that the little brown men
have one great advantage over the
Americans, in spite OF their little
country:
JAPAN HAS NO DEMOCRATIC
PARTY.
MANY of the school children remem-
Der how, when President Mckinley
was slow in declaring war on SPAN
and because of this slowness he was
bitterly denounced by the entire
Democratic press and the Democrat
party of the land.
And then. when he did declare wal
after a few outbursts Of ecstacy, the
Democratic party began finding fault
with the administration and its con
duct of the campaign.
Dissatisfaction was stirred up
among the soldiers because they wer
not given pie and lee cream in Cuba
and the Philippines every day for din
ner and allowed an hour and a half t.
eat it in. And then a terrible rumpus
was raised about the embalmed beef
Of course embalmed beef is not a
pleasant thing to eat, but wal cannot
be carried on like a picnic. A soldier
should expect to get in many a tight
and uncomfortable place, and his
friends should expect it. The en-
balmed beef was probably no worse
than the eats and dogs which the
Parisians ate, and were glad to get
and willing to subsist on much longer

1t is not likely that the social
standing of Major Stanton will be
seriously affected in Goldfeld on ac-
count of his family troubles, as w1le
beating is so common down there. In
fact the district attorney has threat

law for the wife beaterers because
the practice. is so ommen. In the
interest of decency and humanity
the law ought to be revived. But
then in a community where wife
beating is prevalent the accused could
have his lawyer get some of his
friends on the jury and get off in that
way.

The evening was started with
dancing, the music being furnished by
the Hawaiian Glee Club. Those who
did not trip the light fantastic assem-
bled in the lower hall where whist and
pedro were played till nearly 10 0 clock.
At that time all assembled in the up

The Heroult electric process for the
production Of steel is now in practical
operation at Remscheid Haston In
Germany, and 1t Is reported that the
steel produced is much superior In
many ways to that made by older
methods. Steel of great purity and
homogeneous quality is made from or.
binary scrap iron rubbish, melted, and
then subjected to the action OF an
electric oven, In which the necessary
carbon, manganese, nickel and other
substances required to produce steel
Of various qualities are added to the
liquid metal. The oven has capa-
city Of from one and one-half to two
tons, and is heated by current of
100 volts. The new steel is said to
be stronger and more resistant than
the old-fashioned crucible steel.
