Settled the Ownership,

'There was quaint old judge who
used to live in the Pine Tree State"
said a lawyer. Zone of his decisions
gained him the title of the Maine Solo,

magistrate with fine, fat pullet, each
declaring that it belonged to herself
The magistrate from his high seat
frowned heavily at the first woman
Does this pullet belong to Mrs. Jones?
he asked her. No. indeed, it don't, sir.
she replied. Then he turned to the other
woman. Does this pullet belong to
Mrs. Smith, 1T certainly does not,
the second woman replied.
The pullet,' the magistrate then de-
creed. does not belong to Mrs. Jones,
nor does it belong to Mrs. Smith. The
pullet is mine. Janitor. take it round

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
1t Won't.

Aberdeen is exercised over con-
troversy as to whether smoking
should be permitted in Libraries. 1t
is perhaps a momentous question in
Aberdeen. Smoking in public places
has always been cause for cOntrover-
sy. Men are prohibited from enjoy
ing a weed on the street cars, and
are confronted in many public places
by the sign, mo Smoking" 1t is to
to be hoped that this discussion will
not interfere materially with the con-
troversies of the approaching presi-
Dental campaign.-Tacoma Tribune.

Our family were all born and

In fact, when in Ell Paso, exas, the

Why He Vas Single.

A man took an ad something like
this into a newspaper Office in Iowa
and asked to have inserted three
times at the customary rates:
Wanted-To correspond with mid
dle-agei woman; object, matrimony.
Must be able to cook, sew, darn
socks, make garden, milk the cows,
and take care of eight children.
The editor refused to print the ad
on the ground that he could not con-

No doubt you've had your troubles with
Congress on your hands
And lot Of Office seekers with unreason-
ing demands;
No doubt you've had your moments of
resentment and of gloom
When some one started in to launch an
unofficial boom.
You've felt the threat of panic and you've
felt the feverish haste
That comes when currency's required
with not an hour to waste;
But wait until that moment of wild, fe-
verish distress
When the office boy yells Copy" and
it's time to go to press!
If you long for new sensations you have
struck the proper gait
To fly from present ills to those unknown
which lie in wait
You can calm the politician with a stern,
magnetic eye,
But not the stanch subscriber whom they
call ''Vox Populi.''
It's easier by far to face a lion in his
lair
AAdH d StOHy -lIcdItcd foreman VINO Is
holding forms up there.
Your memory of past trials will seem like
kind caress
When the Office boy yells Copy and
it's time to go to press.
Instead of the applauding throngs that
daily used to wait
You'll meet with experts who resent the
way you punctuate;
Instead of bland admirers you will run
across a lot
OF men who look upon your choicest
phrase as tommyrot!
There are always harsh and unapprecia-
tive folk about
Who think that life's one object is to get
the paper out.
So just you wait. You'll sure regret
your old job more or less

France and Germany.

If the Emperor of Germany thought to
save his face, as the Chinese say. by the
old device of dragging herring across the
trail of the English interview scandal to
distract public attention from that un-
fortunate affair he has apparently mis-
taken the temperament of his people. In
suddenly raising an issue with France
over the Casablanca incident the kaiser
took long chance on precipitating a
war. He had only a shadow of excuse
for his peremptory demand for an apol-
ogy from France. Certain German sub
jects Joined the French foreign legion in
Morocco and subsequently deserted and
were recaptured from the protection of a
German consular agency by a squad of
French soldiers acting under orders.
Germany claimed that France had vio-
immediate punishment of all the members
of the squad. Had France acceded to
this demand the government at Paris
would have been driven from office with
in week. Premier Clemenceau could
not possibly have entertained the propo-
sition for a moment. and his refusal
might have been foreseen clearly at Ber-
lin Indeed. probably 1t was, and this
presumption strengthens the belief that
the whole affair was designed as a di-
version to distract attention from the
kaiser's unfortunate break in submitting
to an interview in which he claimed credit
for the English victory over the Beers.
According to the latest dispatches. the
refusal Of France to apologize Or to pun
ish it's soldiers for their invasion of the
German consular agency has not been
provocative of belligerent spirit in Ber-
lin. On the contrary, the whole affair
has suddenly simmered down to a point
from which specific solution is easily
reached. 1t is now expected that both
governments will express regrets at the
incident, and will agree to submit the
matter to arbitration, an eminently sem
sible arrangement which could have been
reached by the ordinary courses of di-
plomacy without resort to the buster of
a peremptory demand.

deliverable, and to be delivered. It's sup
port was the subject of barter. We were
told 1t would so to Mr.. Bryan for a con-
sideration, and the consideration was men,
toned.
This talk was prejudicial to labor on two
grounds. First. labor. and particularly or
ganized labor. is not in politics. Wage
earners divide on issues, national and
local. just as other citizens do. There are
republicans, democrats, socialists, prohib-
tionists and populists in their ranks. They
are as much interested in the general well
fare as men in other branches of activity.
They want to live-and surely they have
a right to hve-but they want others to
live too So they do their own reading
and thinking. and vote as their own judg-
ment directs. They are not deliverable IN
a mass by anybody to anybody
In the second place. it injured labor to
have it's case presented as 1t was. The
injunction issue at its WeiGhtlest was
trivial when compared with other issues
in the campaign. Could labor afford to
put all of its eggs into that one small
basket? Was the tariff nothing, or but
little, to II? Had it no interest in the
further development of the trust question,
the railroad rate question, or the Philip
pine question? Was its great power to be
thrown at the polls solely with regard to
question which, as presented, embraced
the blacklist and the secondary boycott
two things the wisest of the labor leaders
do not desire?
On Tuesday labor asserted itself in
way worthy of labor. That is to say,
it refused to be a political pawn. 1t
would not be moved about in game.
Laboring men looked at all the issues,
just as they had been accustomed to do.
and voted according to individual judg-
ment. Republicans voted for Judge Taft,
democrats for Mr.. Bryan. socialists for Mr..
Debs, and SO on. In all the great in
dustrial centers of New England, New
York New Jersey, and Pennsylvania
where the tariff is so vital, protection
again carried the day as against the
injunction issue and everything else.
1t was most creditable to labor. too,
that it gave SO polite and earnest hear
ing to Judge Taft when. his record as to
labor being challenged, he appeared on the
stump to explain it. His manner was
self-respecting. and his words were plain
and direct. There was not in anything he
said anywhere the slightest suggestion of
shuttle. He stood to his judicial de-
cisions in way that labor ITSELF while
listening, applauded. Has labor anything
to fear from so frank and courageous a
man in the Office of President?

fact that good times are now Immediately

Labor at the Polls

We may all heartily congratulate labor,
organized and unorganized. on the result
of Tuesdays poll.
In one sense labor profits only as capital
does. as We all do. IT will be to the gem
eral advantage to have present national
policies continued. Had they been halted
we should all have lost something. and
had they been reversed we should all have
lost heavily. AS they stand approved, and
will be strengthened and enlarged. we
shall all gain. Labor's share will be no
greater than the rest.
But labor profits also by reason of its
reputation of what was undertaken and
promised in its name by some Of its most
conspicuous leaders. 1t figured in the gos-
sin Of the campaign as partisan asset,

Mr.. Cannons reelection, by majority
which evidences his constituents I'M
shaken confidence in him, gives unmis-
taxable general satisfaction. The object
of much unjust attack, he came out Of
the contest with flying colors, and maybe
the stronger for the experience. He is
both strong and worthy man. and has
been for a long period a valuable public
servant. There are no frils no preten-
sions, no hypocrisies, about him. His ex
perience in political life has taught him
much. and in Office he has given the
country the full benefit of it. His defeat
al this time would have been public
misfortune. His party is charged with
new and heavy responsibilities, and needs
in the high places its best and most COM
petent men. He belongs to that band,
and stands in the front rank.

difficulties which would have tried any
