ANOTHER STRENUOUS PERIOD

Another presidential campaign was
launched with the announcement by
the republican convention that its
candidates were Taft and Sherman.

try and render life burden in some
of its aspects. Those who don't like
1t can get off the earth--or go to
some country where the blessed quiet
of kingly rule prevails-Salt Lake
for instance.
For the American citizen must
have his quadrenniaI period of siren
uosity, with all the rancor and heart
burnings and broken heads that the
diversion supplies. The democratic
man will now begin to look upon the
republican man with bitter enmity
and the republican man to gaze upon
the democratic man through the vi
sion of hatred.
1t is part of the game for par
tisan to look upon the other fellows
partisanship as personal affront
and to treat him accordingly. Rela-
tons that have been cemented
through three and half years of
peace will become strained and some
or the contentionists will go apart In
bitterness. 1t Is one of the incidents
IN the American scheme of govern

proud. 1t is called politics. Seine

PASSING OF THE BARN.

torn down. 1t has done service for
twenty-one years, and was built Of
posts, poles and baling wire chiefly.
Inc boys who built it, designed it

cows besides a granary. The "pur-

the last five years although he was
not confined to his home until No

had seemed to be in better health
than usual and he even contemplated
riding in the parade with the old
veterans last week, but was dissuad-

who feared the excitement would be
too much for him. The end came
at about $50 o'clock. He leaves a
wife who was his faithful nurse,

from his consulship at Mantanzas

GUNS SHOULD BE MELTED.

The seeming increase of accidental
deaths from all classes of people
from handling firearms, makes 1t
necessary to widen the statement that
boys should not be allowed to mon
key with guns. Men of all ages and
conditions are the victims, and the
empty guns that are handled, kill
too many people to be given only a
passing notice. There is much logic
In the claim that all guns should be
melted down.

pointed to Consult With Directors
and Voics Stockholdsr's Wishes

At voluntary meeting Of the
stockholders Of the 1dora Mining
Mining company held last week at
the call Of Frank Johnson, one OF the
stockholders, 1t was explained that
the balance Of the 100000 shares
which were to be subscribed Decem-
Der IL should be subscribed as soon
as possible. In order to liquidate the
mortgage which is now held by Wal
ter J. Nichols against the property
for $4,000.
In explanation, Mr.. Nichols de-
clared that II $1,000 could be raised
soon he would give an extra extern
sion OF one year and a half for the
remainder at low rate OF interest
and thus give the company time to
realize upon its holdings. He fur
ther extended the time OF the present
mortgage indefinitely pending an ar.
rangement whereby the tockholders
can take advantage OF his offer.
Mr.. Johnson. who acted as chairman.
