This is a political year-for the
men. Already the lords of creation
have sweated. sworn. grated. gesti-
culated and hurrahed at one great
national convention. and another
one is now gathering at Denver.
But the ladies also-dear things-are
not to be outdone by the men. They
also these days have their ninth BIZ
ennial convention of Women's Clubs
at Boston-the hub of all culture
and refinement of this continent.
They also have had their talks and
their tilts, their little rows with the
presiding officer and experiences
with the steam roller" have listened
to- learned disQuisitions on "the
evolution Of the convolutions of the
cerebrum in relation to the scintilla-
tion of the thought germ in the in
dividual," or treatise on chow to
keep the baby from crying when it
has the colic." They have also had
their little pleasure jaunts to New
port and their hair-breadth escapes
from being run over by the deadly
automobile. Yes. the women have
also had their convention-this year
but they did not ask President
Roosevelt to address them and give
them another subject to talk upon
until they meet again.

The remarkable development OF
the gasoline engine in recent years
has resulted in it's use on farms to a
very large extent for pumping water
saving wood. elevating grain. turn
ing the cream separator and many
other purposes requiring power.
The latest step in the application OF
this new motive power is the gaso-
line traction engine pillow. which
has been found to be just the thing
for turning over the land on the big
valley farms. When conditions are
favorable the work can be done more
quickly and cheaply by the gasoline
blow than with horses. When not
at work the machine eats nothing,
hence it's use is very economical. We
look for it's rapid introduction on
farms all over the valley. thus giving
the horse and the mule we'll earned
rest.

Next Saturday is the Fourth of
july, the 132nd anniversary of the
birth of this mighty republic. 1t is
the day of which John Adams said:
cit ought to be concentrated as
the day of deliverance bv solemn
acts of devotion to God Almighty.
1t ought to be solemnized with pomp
and parade, with shows. games.
SPORTS, bells. bonires. and illumina-
tions, from one end Of this continent
to the other. from this time forever
more.' The excellent suggestions
of Mr.. Adams are being needed to
this day as far as sports and noise
are concerned. but the devotional
part is not so we'll carried out in
most 4th Of July programs. Yet
there are hopeful signs of return
to more 'sane'' methods of observing
the day.

BAND CAPTURES MEXICAN TOWN..
Three Persons kiIled-May Be Start
of Revolution.

Laredo, Tex, June 26.-Two hun.
dred armed mounted men Thurs,
day attacked and captured the town
of Viesca, state of Coahuila, Mex.
Three persons were killed and several
wounded in the fighting.
Telegraph wires were cut and the
railroad lines torn up and a bridge
burned.
Three train loads of troops left the
City of Mexico for the scene and one
train load of soldiers also left Saltillo,
the capital of the state.
Reports received here are to the
effect that the government believes
the attack was made by bandits. The
vice-president of the republic and the
secretary of war and sinterior, it is
stated, deny that the trouble has any
political significance. Some reports
received here say the outbreak is the
starting of revolution.

Judge H. G. Ewart addressed
a large audience in the court
house yesterday on the subject:
Several reasons why you
should not vote for the pro-

The audience was not large,
it was pitifully small. There were
no REASONS advanced, and
the meeting was a burlesque- it
was so absolutely flat.
But here's the funny part of
the report as it appeared in the
Observer, and whoever wrote it
could get a great big salary of
three dollars a week as a writer
on some funny paper, Listen
and hear what funny things
happen in this village and we all
know nothing about them:
Undoubtedly his speech had
a marked effect and has set a
good many people to thinking
who were disposed to vote for
this law. There is much apathy
and Indifference over the matter
and there will be a very light
vote polled, unless more interest
is shown.
"A prominent prohibitionist,

that that speech, if
made all over the State, would

Facts About The Great Males
tic Range

1t is the only range in the world made of MaIleable and
Charcoal Iron. =
1t has, beyond any question. of a doubt the largest and
best reservoir.
1t uses about half the fuel used on other ranges, and
does better work by far.
The Majestic All Copper Nickeled Reservoir heats the
water quicker and hotter than any other. 1t is the only
reservoir with a removable frame.
The Charcoal Iron Body of the great Majestic Range
lasts three times as long as a steel body.
Being made of nonbreakabIe material, there is prac-
ticany no expense for repairing the Majestic.
AS for baking, it is perfection; not only a few months
but for all time to come.
A GREAT MAJESTIC lasts three times as
long as a cheap range, but it don't cost three times as mucn.
