OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Warren Of
W Wyoming excited the wonder
ment Of his colleagues the other day
by taking with him to lunch in the
senate restaurant a party of Indians
belonging to the tribe of the Arapa-
hoes and the Shoshones. The red men
were in Washington transacting bust
ness with the interior department and
paying their respects to the great
white father at the executive mansion,
as well as to his prospective success
or across the way in the wal depart
ment.
Proof that the Indians are taking
on the ways Of civilization was to be
seen at Warren's lunch function. In
stead of calling for jerked beef and
bear meat the feathered and blanket
ed warriors partook of salads and pie.
What is more, they ate pie with forks,
which is more than al be said for
every white person that appears at
the senate refectory. Also they used
napkins as they should be used and
didn't mistake them for handkerchiefs
or for bibs. They partook of consom,

to say, they all dropped into a salt
lake on the mountainside. That brined
them"
"Whew!" the old dodgers chorused
In unison.
But that's not the s%trangest. part
of the story. Ten days later a cyclone

mackerel and dropped them into a hot
spring. That boiled them; and, gen.
tlemen, they were the finest boiled

THE business of the house was NOV
i ing along with impressive dignity
the other day when Representative
ICY" S%ulloway, rising to address the
speaker, began to assume that states
manlike attitude which generally pro-
vokes whispers of admiration in the
visitors gallery.
But on this occasion he did not at
tain the pose. Just as he reached the
left foot forward movement, the inner
points Of his eyebrows went up like
those of a Gibson girl, the corners of
his mouth were drawn down in the
style affected by heather images, and
after a moment of painful hesitation,
he let go a mighty sneeZe.
A ripple of laughter swept over the
house, and eve Speaker Cannon, as
the embarrassed Mr.. Sulloway sat
down, smiled the superior smile of one
indulgent of human weaknesses.
Another member rose, but no n
paid any particular attention to him,
for the eyes of the house were fixed
on Representative Murdoch, who, in
evident distress of mind, had pranced

Republican Prosperity.

Wholesale prices are declining in
some lines though meats are higher,
but the retail cost of necessities, ex-
cept perhaps of cotton goods and cheap
quality of clothing, is still about at
the top notch. Wages, however, are
being reduced with great regularity,
and all the New England cotton mills
have made a cut Of ten per cent. The
building trades have suffered most
and it is reported that in New York
carpenters who were getting 81 to
$3.50 a day last year, are now solicit
ing work by the thousands at two dol
lars a day. What a blessing it is that
although the Republicans declare their
tariff and other policies produce pros
perity, they cannot prevent gentle
spring from driving out the winter OF
our .%discontent with their disastrous
policies.

What jefferson Would Do.

Wise men study past history t.
guide them for the future, while at the
same time considering the difference
of time and circumstances.
Jefferson il his day agreed with
the beliefs Of u. :. OdernS, in abhOrrina
public debts and high taxes. TO him
the least possible government was tho
best, partly because it was less eX
pensive, inflicted light burdens only
upon industry and insured the great
est amount of freedom and il 1epen
dence to all men. Were he alive to
day we may be certain that he would
be active for direct legislation which
would put the legislative power, in
practice as well as in theory, back
into the hands of the people; for more
and better schools; for smaller pub
Tic debts; for reduced taxes; for free
raw materials; for no duties on manu-
featured goods sold cheaper to for
eigners than to Americans; for greatly
reduced tariff duties, reciprocity with
Canada and other nations; for no
tariff or other protection to giant
trusts; for equal and uniform freight
rates to all shippers; and for less in
termedding in foreign affairs"
Such we're the words of Hon. VIII
liam l.. Douglas when governor OF
Massachusetts in 1905, ard this In
dorsement of J~effersonian policies
and indictment of the Republican
leaders is as true to-day as wien said

milk Tops" Buy White House Roses

The children have a game which

Quentin's friendship with the head
gardener at the White House made
the acquiring of a small bouquet each
day no difficult matter, so the bargain
was struck and everybody was happy.
Just before leaving Washington
Quentin developed al unusual condi-
ton of dependency. Several times
in succession he was late for school.

what has gone wrong? You were late
yesterday and the day before, and you
are behind time again to-day"
AS the lad raised his head his teach
er discovered vivid streaks Of red
about his brow and on his cheeks.
Why, Quentin, what has marked your
face up in that fashion," she asked.
That's what is the matter" piped
up Quentin. Il used some red ink to
make up for a clown, and the ink
won't wash off. This morning father
noticed it and he gave me an awful
going over. He says I'm a sight, and
l guess he's about right" concluded

Party organizations are necessary
under our system of DemOcratic-Re

much we may admire OF e those
whom We regard as leaders, yet, after
ell, they are but fleeing shadows on
the political pathway. No Democrat,
however famous, must be allowed to
stand in the way of party success, be.

ly personal leadership substituted. A
personal leadership often becomes
selfish, because it aims to be popular

Tariff Tax on Coal.

Everyone has to use coal, so a tariff
tax on Goa affects every family direct
ly or indirectly. Can any tax be more
senseless than that on coal? True it
is only 81 cents a ton, but that is just
enough to prevent competition and the
coal combines can therefore add that
much to their profit. Hon. William L.
Douglas. when his term as governor OF
Massachusetts had expired, in a
speech before the New York Reform
club told why New England demanded
free coal. The duty of 81 cents a ton
on bituminous COAL" said Gov. Doug
las, clearly protects both the hard
and soft coal trusts in New England
territory. 1t costs only half as much
to transport coal from Nova Scotia to
Boston as from Virginia or Pennsyl-
vania, even when the railroads give us
a square deal With free access to
Nova Scotia coal, the protected trusts
would have to lower their prices or
lose our orders. Free and cheap coal
would be a great boon to the homes
and factories in our cold climate. Nor
do l think it would injure any section
Of the c~Ountry-nOt even Pennsyl.
vania. AS l understand it, Canada
has for years been ready to take her
duty off coal when we take ours off.
Upper and middle Canada are even
more dependent upon Pennsylvania
and other central states for coal than
are we of the Atlantic and Pacific
coasts upon Canada. We export four
or five times as much coal to Canada
as we import from there. For the
year 1904 we imported 1,373,000 tons
of coal and coke from Canada. and e
ported 6,643,00O tons to Canada. 1t is
thus evident that even u protected
coal trusts would share in the mutual
benefits that would flow to these two
mutually dependent countries from
the mutual removal of these mutually
obnoxious taxes on coal. Reciprocity
would make brothers of these two
neighbor countries. Why cannot we
exchange products in a friendly way?"

of their white brethren.
Great was the establishment Of per-

they seemed to be on terms of good

Of the pale face. Little Wolf, the
aged chief of the Arapahoes, who is

was obliged to call forth his best

Some Of those that saw what hap

think of one of Fenimore Cooper's In.
