DUBOIS CLAIMS
CONVENTION
SITUATION CONCEDED TO BE
CLOSE, AND COMPROMISE FEA-
TURE NOW FREELY TALKED
AMONG DEMOCRATS. >.

BOISE, May 28.-Dubois follow
ers are making strong claims of be-
ing able to fully control the demo-
cratic convention which meets at
Twin Falls June to select dele
gates to the national democratic
convention. The figures as claimed
by the Dubois men follow: Dubois,
14S; anti-Dubois, lis; contested,
80; in doubt, s. Cassia and Bear
Lake are the counties in doubt, and
prominent Dubois man said yes
terday that If anti-Dubois delega-
tions were sent from those counties
contest would be instituted,
While the feeling in this section
is very bitter against Dubois, ennis
saries advocating middle ground be-
tween the former senator's views
and the policies of the antis are
hard at work seeking compromise.
These advocate conducting the cam
paign on national issues, with Bry.
an the dominant figure.
That the senator should be con-
suited as to democratic policies the
middlemen declare Is only right. but
his radical views should not be al
lowed to prevail any more than the
extreme opposite policy of his oppo-
nents. To this end it is urged that
a plank similar to four years ago be
placed in the state platform. but
the state central and executive COM
mittees should be taken from the
control of the senator and the cam
paign conducted on democratic
lines. Moreover, the compromise
advocates claim that such course
would place squarely upon the re-
publican party the responsibility!
for Mormon interference in the po'
litical affairs of the state and force
that party to settle the question
once and for all.

HOW TO Be RICH
WITHOUT MONEY

The trial of Banker Morse Of New
York. who contributed so opportunely y
to the panic of 1907. reminds us again
how illogical is that sentiment OF
hostility which the poor too often
entertain for tho rich 1t ia based
upon the great and deplorable miscon-
oeption that in order to be rich q man
must have money. II the simple
truth, that man may be ~ rich as he
likes without having any money at
all, were better understood, class feel +.
ing would diminish: hobo and mil.
lonaire would regard each other in
brotherly sympathy as fellow workers
with different methods.
1t is related of an ingenious but
impeounious young man that he al
ways stopped at tile most expensi We
hotels because the tailors and haber.
dashers would then give him credit.
and so long rs he dressed lavishly the
hotel would let his bill run. Three
gentlemen in western city are now
under arrest for swindling high priced
restaurants. They spent money so
prodigally in the restaurants that the
proprietors readily cashed their
checks. which we're bogus. In Mr..
Morse's institutions. it appears from
the testimony he was regarded as 30
great finsncier that nobody dared
question his borrowings, and as long
a. the assets of the bank held out he
was a great finanoier.
Reduced to plain terms. the opera
tion is this: Borrow a thousand dol

THE STUPID MICE

There were five little field mice.
Their mother was very wise and one
day when they went out to play she
told them that when she chirped like
a bird, they must lie perfectly still.
That seemed so funny that the mice
were surprised, and began TO ask each
other a great many questions about
1t. II would have been much better
to ask their mamma, but they were
very little.
Just then their mother saw a hawk
in the sky and chirped. One poor
little mouse got frightened and forgot
all about what she said; and one
diyed down into a hole Unfortunate
ly there was a weasel in that hole ::
and the weasel got him. Another ran
of and got lost in the grass. and
never was found again. Another ran
and tried to hide under a leaf. and a
hawk swooped down and ate him up.
Another jumped into the bushes and
a snake swallowed him. The fifth
stayed quite still and. though he did
not know It. he looked so like a with
cred leaf that neither snake nor the
weasel nor the hawk saw him at all.
Which one do you think was the
