which time she learned a great deal
concerning the unconventional procliy-
tiles Of the women of her race and
FAMILY, enough to impress her so seri-
ously that on an exaggerated impulse
she had come to one of her character
istic decisions.
That decision was to break the IN
savory record at the first justifiable
opportunity, and the opportunity came
IN the shape Of Quarrier-as though
wedlock were actually the sanctuary
which an alarmed nation pretends It
to be!
Now, approaching the threshold Of a
third and last season and having put
away her almost meaningless mourn
ing, there had stolen into her senss Of
security something irksome in the
promise she had made to give Quarries
a definite answer before winter.
Perhaps 1t had been the lack Of IN
terest in the people at Shotover, per-
haps mental review of her ancestors
capricious records, perhaps a charac-
teristic impulse that had directed n
telegram to Quarter after midnight
cOnfab with Grace Ferrall.
However 1t may have been, she had
summoned him. And now he was on
his way to get his answer, the best
whip, the most eagerly discussed and
one of the wealthiest unmarried men
In America.

Employment in private or rooming

The Wisconsin tobacco reporter. (Edgerton, Wis.) 1877-1950, 1908-12-11

THE general complaint is that we
have too much government; that state
and nation have been converted into in
termeddlers and are interfering too
much in purely private concerns. If the
complaint be well founded it is time to
consider it and see if the complicated
affairs of men cannot be left to the in
dividuals directly interested. As rule
men who play the game of politics are
lily equipped to deal with business MAJ
tiers, and when they attempt it are al t
to injure somebody without renderir 3
corresponding benefits to somebody els !.
The mixing of business with Cover :
ment is usually injurious to both. Tie
freest, best and most progressive pee
pie are those who run their own affairs
without governmental interference save
only when experience has demonstrated
the necessity therefor in order to pre-
vent unjust overreaching. -Stoughton
Courier.

IN THE year 1906 single grain of
corn was, found in the Aztec ruins in
northern New Mexico. Last spring
that grain was planted and it appears
to be a new variety. The stalks have
grown Is feet high, bearing ears aver
aging II inches long. The kernels are
larger and sweeter. than the ordinary
corn. This is credible, for seeds of va
rious sorts found in ancient Oriental
ruins on: being planted have demon
strated their vitality. The Aztecs in
habited the highlands of Mexico, and
are supposed to have. been conquered
by Cortes early in the sixteenth CEN
century.

The Lake. Geneva. Herald suggests
two ways to reduce the big difcit in
postofhce revenues: The first is to cut
off the franking privilege enjoyed by
members of congress and senators who
frank almost everything from collar
to threshing machine through the
mails and the dear people pay the bills
and hustle to make up the deficiency.
The second is for the postoffice depart
ment to cease carrying free of cost the
tons and tons of envelopes which are
printed by the government. : There
is no justice or reason why the govern
ment should be allowed to do job print
ing and send the products Of its large
plant all over the country, through the
postofice, and not be obliged to pay for
it the same as any other job printer.

ANDERSON CANDIDATE
FOR VICE PRESIDENT
Man Who is Known to Chickasha Polit-
clans and Railroad Men Is in the
Limelight Again

Chicago, July 28.-This city has a
real live presidential candidate who
who not only promises all you have
been vainly seeking for these many
years, but who believes men ought to
live on twenty cents a day and wash
their own dishes. He also advocates
equal wages for men and women and
would frame laws permitting women to
collect their husbands salary.
He is the product Of Chicago and
his name is Alvin W. Van Dorston, a
violin maker at S24 West Van Buren
street and he hopes to fiddle his way
into the White House with the aid Of
a beautiful young girl" /" whose identity
must not be revealed for the present.
He is the head Of the American
Goodbackers" and stands on a plat
form that knocks the foundations Of
the other parties to smithereens. He
wrote it himself and says every candi.
date ought to write his own platform,
SO that the people might be able to
Judge whether the candidate has sufi-
cient brains to hold such lofty job.
After giving his platform in full he
writes this supplementary"
/ Every American, regardless Of creed
. or occupation, who has tired. Of chas-
ing hot air bubbles and political delu-
sions, and has any respect for liberty
and the constitution Of the United
States as the inheritance left to us by
our forefathers through the sacrifice Of
their blood, will show his good sense
and patriotism in supporting the prin-
ciples set forth in the American Good
hackers platform and its candidates,
and thus repudiate the Taft-sherman-
/ Bryan-Kern 'steamroller' system by
crossing out their names and voting for
the candidates at the head Of this plat
form This band wagon is the largest
and most substantial ever mounted on
the wheels Of justice, and room enough
for all Illinois and Oklahoma candi-
dates to the front, Ohio and Nebraska
to the rear
OF course he has running mate
Dallas A. Anderson of Chickasha, Ok,
nephew of the fiddler.
Van Dorston will ask Chief shippy
today for a permit to hold street meet
ings and before many dawns will fiddle
and tell the "throngs" all about it.
Then he vii pass the hat for nickels
{ and dimes that are to constitute his
: campaign fund. And the cheerful Civ
ers will receive receipts, form Of Ger.
tiicate which Van Dorston say is a
parody" on the new currency bill.

COAL PRODUCTION SHOWS
IMMENSE INCREASE
Output Of Oklahoma Mines for 1907 Ex-
ceeds that Of 1906 by Over Million
Tons-Interesting Report

Guthrie, July 27-Oklahoma's total
production Of coal for 1907, according
to the annual report Of the United
States geological survey just received
here was s,642,65s short tons having
a spot value Of s7,43S,s14. The most
noteworthy feature Of the report is
the great increase in production over
1906 While the report for 1906 was
for Indian Territory ulone and that for
1907 is for the state Of Oklahoma, the
entire coal producing section OF the
state is contained in what was former.
ly Indian Territory and the compari-
son for Oklahoma for 1907 and Indian
Territory for 1906 is really the same
territory.
In 1905 the Indian Territory output
amounted to2 $50. 200 short tons val
ued at s5,4S2,S 1856 In comparison with
this, the 1907 output shows an in
increase Of l,7S2,45S tons or 1886 per
cent in quantity and Of sl,95l,54S or
35.6 per cent in value. Only three
states come ahead Of Oklahoma in the
percentage Of increase IN 1907 to 1908.
They are Michigan whose production
increased 81 per cent: Arkansas which
has an increase Of 4S.S per cent, and
New Mexico with 1873 per cent in
crease.
According TO the same report there
we're s89S men employed in the okla
homa coal mines during 1907, who
worked on an average Of ZIG days each
compared with S25I men for an aver
age Of l66 days in 1905. The total time
lost in 1906 days was equivalent to
40 per cent Of the total time made;
the total time lost in 1907 was equiva.
lent to little less than : per cent
OF the total time made
The average production per man in
1907 was 4S4 tons as against 1856 tons
in 1906 and 2.O2 tons IN 1905. Practi.
average daily production per man was
2.1O tons In 1907 as against 2.09 tons
in 1906 and 202 tons in 1905. Practi-
eally all the mines in the state are
operated on the basis OF an eight
hour day
The decline Of the use Of mining ma
chinery in Oklahoma, referred to in
the reports for 1905 and 1906, continu
ed in 1907, and was probably due 10
the prevalent practice Of shooting
from the solid The quantity Of the
product OF the state is according to the
report seriously affected by this prac-
tice which produces an excess Of slack
or fine coal for which there is no prof
liable market

ported by William Cameron, federal
mine inspector for Indian Territory
shows that there we're SO accidents
