Hundreds return as soon as they
have registered, but thousands have

To be broke in this country means
something to man, because he is
without friends at time when it is
not easy to make new ones.
Every outgoing train carries many
men who have lost their money and
are risking their lives on the brake

No land opening probably has ever

Those who have the gambling

hundred are living on charity. until
they can get out of the country.

ell meeting last night that the light
company had charged the city full
price for the street illuminations dur
ing fair week while it had been
agreed that the city was to have the
illuminations at cost. ..
No action was taken in the matter
OF the charges preferred By the Hud-

paid to do an indecent dance for the
entertainment of some of the fire
men at the fire station one night
few weeks ago. 1t was announced
that the girls S statement could not be
corroborated in the least and as all
the firemen made strenuous denial
the matter would be dropped. A full
investigation had been made by the
city attorney and other officials.
The saloons of the city made ap-
plication for licenses to transact busi-
ness during the ensuing six months.
Alderman Plank asked if the saloons
asking for licenses were obeying and
had been obeying the city ordinances.
City Attorney Rozzelle stated that he
believed the saloons were obeying
the city ordinances. Mayor Went

it was reported, We're not living up

then taken up and discussed at some
length. 1t is Alderman Hertzs idea
to make the laundries, factories, big
furnaces, etc, to build stacks high
enough to prevent the smoke from
doing damage to private property.
| The ord nance was laid over until the

has many commendable features.

No Room for Soreheads.

The man who becomes a sorehead
In politics when he. cannot carry
everything before him is not likely to
become the choice of his party in the
national field. Politics is game in
which the best craftsmanship in every
man is tested. Defeat brings out the
good points of many public man, as
we'll as exposing the weaknesses of
others. No man should be accepted
by the people unless he has been test
ed under the CALLING fire of defeat. He
will show his true colors then. If he
swallows his bitter dose, brushes the
dust of the steam roller from his
clothes, and joins his fellows in hearty
efforts to push the party to success,
he gains confidence and admiration as
a game and loyal fighter. If he sulks,
he may as well consider his career
near its close. There Is really no
place, nowadays, for a mugwump in
politics. 1t is better for defeated
man to join the enemy, bag and bag
gage, than to wear the uniform of his
party and still refuse to fight under
It's standard.
