soPHoMoREs oUTDo FRESHMEN

pCI IlomOhLIC w L ~ II Id II M Elm.
The college bell rudely awakened
all Freshmen Monday night at twelve
O'Clock. Forty-fve or fifty Freshmen
started out to stop the Sophs from
posting procs. The Sophomores had
their plans we'll made and when the
Freshmen appeared at Reaney's park
the battle began. Inside of ten min
utes every Freshman was securely tied,
and then they were placed in a row
down the dusty street. By the time
the first bunch had been disposed of,
another bunch of twenty came along
and these were added to the line For
the finishing touches three fashlight
pictures were taken of the captives.
Later Laird, White and Skeels were
driven some miles beyond Moscow and
then allowed to walk back to W.S.C.
These unfortunate Freshmen stopped
in Moscow for breakfast. While they
would like to deny any knowledge of
the trip. their appearance on returning
was against them. The 1911 class is
very reticent concerning the affair.
and it is now likely that things will
be doing. The Freshmen have had
every Soph under their eyes night and
day for some time.

TWO uUNlC|PRL
TICKETS FILED
Pullman Lines Up for the Annual
Conflict With the Ballot
December 3rd.

Candidates are now before the voters
for the various city offices, two tickets
having been filed, the first, the candi
dates of the Law Enforcement party.
having filed their declarations early
Saturday, while the candidates of the
Citizens party were filed sometime
about the eleventh hour Saturday
night, Saturday being the last day of
grace allowed under the new direct
primary law.
The candidates and platform of the
Law Enforcement party were published
in these columns last week, the com
plete ticket of the party being as fol-
lows:
For mayor, H. V. Carpenter: coun-
Gilman at large, j. M. Klemgard ::
councilman, 1st ward, Henry Young :;
End ward, c. B. Duncan; 3rd ward,
Elton Fulmer; Clerk. l.. E. Wenham :;
attorney, M. S. lamar. No candi-
date for treasurer filed on this ticket.
The Citizens ticket is composed
largely of the incumbents, they being
shifted around in a number of cases.
This party apparently stands on the
platform adopted last year. as it has
made no new declaration of principles,
and will go before the people as the
saloon ticket. "
The candidates who filed their dec
larations under this banner are as fol-
lows; For mayor, j, N. Scott; coun-
Gilman at large, G. H. Watt; council
man, 1st ward, f. Mcguire; End
ward, Murray Henry; 3rd ward, A.
Walk; clerk, Geo. Walter; treasurer,
J. S. Clark. There being no local at
torney eligible who sympathizes with
this party, no candidate appears for
city attorney.

The bank examiners OF the treasury

an explanation was demanded. The
cashier made a brave attempt TO look
wise. Finally he took 800 from a
private money drawer, There. that

Navy Yard Bids Too Hiqh.

1t has been discovered that the bids
made by our eastern navy yards for
the two new battleships to be built
were about one million dollars more
than those received from private es-
Establishments. 1t has also been dis
covered that there is a sure way to
cure ailments of the stomach, liver and
kidneys and it is by the use of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. Having been
in practical use for "a years, it has
surely been thoroughly tested SO that
when you take it you can rest assured
you have the best that science can
produce. Any time your appetite is
poor, your head aches or your bowels
are constipated just try a few doses
and see how much good it will do you
Then it is also excellent in cases OF
dyspepsia, Indigestion, biliousness
weak kidneys, sleeplessness, chills
colds and malaria, fever and ague.

Republicans at Sea.

The following editorial comment on
the dearth of men in the republican
party in this state is so well known
that an admission of the kind coming
from the Peoria Star, republican pa
per, is well worth considering. The
Star says:
ut appears that all is not well among
the politicians in Chicago. Speaker
Shurtleff is being knocked by the anti
Deneen men, and it is said that, in
stead of centering upon Shurtleff, they
mean to pick up Ex-Governor Yates. II
now looks as if Deneen would succeed
himself, solely because there is no one
in the state of sufficient prominence to
contest the nomination to inspire the
public with confidence. There was Z
time when statesmen were as thick in
Illinois as autumn leaves, but of late
we have fallen into decadence ant
there is now nobody to take the Offices
or run for position.

A Mattoon business man received a
letter the other day from the head OF
one of the great houses in Chicago
which contained some good advice
The Chicagoan wrote:
Don't worry. Let the Wall street
fellows walk the floor. The general
business of the country is on a safe
sound and sensible basis. There has
been some undesirable financiering
away down east. A lot OF fellows have
had frequent brain storms 1t means
fewer monkey dinners, less wateret
stock, and more common sense in the
financial world: S0,00O.00G of people
are still sweeping, while few fellows
are weeping"

The people of the Santiago addition
are about equally divided on the ques.
ton of annexation. Those who are op
posed to it do not understand that their
taxes will not be increased, and that in
addition to this their township asses
sor will continue to assess their taxes
as in the past. The annexation of out
lying districts does not affect the
status of the township officers. Or
the other hand, the residents in the ad

Everybody has remedy for the
financial stringency, but the most
unique theory is advanced by a St
Louis clergyman. He says blow your
selves Don't save any money, but
spend it recklessly and extravagantly
Get it into circulation, even though
you go bankrupt This will start up
business and society will prosper even
if the individual runs shy. But if ev
erybody would take this advice, the
probability is that the millionaires
would yet get all the money 1t would
drift their way and the ordinary citi
zen would be left to hold the bag.
