Thomas w. Lawson, who became
famous for his alleged expose of the
methods of the interests" in fleec-
Ing the people, has returned to his
true character and is once more
Thomas W. Lawson, the Wall street
gambler and Spectator. Those who
studied the character of the man and
his business career were not swept
away by his alleged attacks on others
OF his class. II is true that he may
have had enemies to punish and
schemes to accomplish by his attacks
on the spectators of Wall street
and having accomplished his
object, he now returns to the fold
and does so in most ungraceful
manner by calling the people very
uncomplimentary names. 1t is said
that while Lawson was advising
people to sell certain stocks he was
In the market purchasing them and
when he advised the purchase he had
the stock for sale, which looks very
much like fleeing the innocents by
the application of new rules TO the
same old game.

HARD LUCK FOOTBALL TALE.
Princeton Player Overlooked In Yale
Game Loses 5000.

Princeton Player Overlooked In Yale
Game Loses 5000.
AS result Of oversight, 1t is said, on
the part of Princeton football coaches,
who intended but forgot to send young
Henry Buckingham, son of a Mem
phis banker, into the recent game
against Yale at New Haven, a small
fortune was lost by the husky boy who
claims Memphis as his home and who
was tackle on Prlnceton's varsity foot
ball team, says Memphis special dis
patch to the New York Times.
7. N. Buckingham, father of the boy,
promised him $1,000 IL he made his
"P." Young Buckingham trained faith
fully and took part in every game but
the Yale game, which alone entities
the Princetonians to the coveted honor.
1t is said that Head Coach Roper in
tended sending Buckingham in during
the last half in place of Left Tackle
Siegling so the young man could earn
the sum offered by the father, but the
sudden switch in the score from 10 to
0 in Princeton's favor In the first
half to II to 10 for Yale in the second
half demoralized every one on the
Princeton side lines, so that subs were
forgotten and Buckingham was the
loser. Young buckingham while at
home for the holidays laughed at his
loss. He was injured in the Amherst
game, prior to which he had played
in every game of the team.

Grip Weather.

Nearly score of years ago the grip
became recognized as an ailment hay
ing peculiar manifestations. A con
sentative physician who would have
scorned the use of the term at the be-
ginning viii now use 1t because he
knows his meaning will be under
stood. There have been grip epidem-
les, and there are few people of adult
age who do not know the disease, so
called, when 1t seizes them or their
household. We talk of grip weather.
too, as though there must be certain
atmospheric condition or combination
to send the germs OF influenza floating
where the human system win absorb
them.
But we have grip In summer as we'll
as In the seasons when colds are to be
expected because of sudden changes
Of weather. However, 1t is mainly be-
tween Thanksgiving and June that
grip becomes fashionable, and the bull
letins tell of its invasion of mansion
and even palace. An emperor, two
singers whose illness held up the per
fOrmances In two opera houses and
three Of Roosevelts cabinet officers
We're laid up" with 1t recently at the
same time, Experience has taught the
doctors and astute sufferers as well
not to hold that grip isn't grip be-
cause trouble comes out of the fash
ionable" grip season. The best way Is
to treat for grip and be ON the safe
side, Fortunately grip often passes as
quickly and as mysterlously as 1t
comes, but II neglected may leave an
aftermath, recovery from which is very
slow. There is peril in that "weak
feeling" which accompanies a trihlng
cold, no matter what the season.

RABBITS FOR A CITY'S POOR.
Kansas Man Offers a Suggestion For a
Carload a Week.

Have the railroad companies furnish
a car and ask the persons living near
the railroad to kill rabbits. Have the
rabbits brought to the depots on a Ger.
tain day and loaded into a special car.
This is the plan r. A. Rogers of Sell
den, Kan, suggests to the Salvation
Army, says the Kansas City Star. He
believes carload Of rabbits could be
furnished each week for the poor Of
Kansas City.
Major Arthur Cass of the Salvation
Army believes the plan to be a good
one, and he will ask the railroad com.
panies to agree to the plan for trans
porting the rabbits to Kansas City.
II satisfactory arrangements can be
made an appeal for rabbits will be sent

A SENSIBLE POSITION

In another column we publish a
letter which appeared in the last is
sue of the st. MaTies Gazette from
one of the citizens of that growing
town, covering the county seat re-
moval question. We publish the
communication because 1t contains
so much good common sense that any
person at all familiar with conditions
must admit that the position taken
by the correspondent is unassailable.
Occur d'Alene and St. Maries have
vast interests In common and these
interests will be come more closely
interviewer as time passes, and what
will benefit one benefits both, fact
that does not apply to Rathdrum and
st. Maries. Occur d'Alene has the
voting population and will some day
be the county seat, II not at the com
ing election, then some time in the
future, and the defeat of the propos-
al at this time would, according to
the constitution of the state, postpone
the matter six years. The people of
st. Marles are not going to vote to
retain the county seat at Rath-
drum and be put to the in
convenience of reaching 1t for
six years simply to prevent its
being removed to Occur d'Alene,
VB hAV
venience, to transact public business
This is especially true when Rath-
drum has nothing more to offer them
than a promise to favor another coun-
ty division at some time In the flu
ture, change that will take place
naturally when the time comes, Just
as did the division OF old Kootenai.
Occur d'Alene has many natural ad-
yantages to offer the people of the
st. Joe and Occur d'Alene river val
leys as county seat and depends on
the good business judgment of those
people to known where their interests
lie. For the future division of Koot-
enai county this city has just as much
to offer as has Rathdrum and that Is
the promise of individuals that they
would favor such a move at some flu
ture time. No individual or COM
mite can pledge the support of the
people to future action and to at
tempt II Is presuming on the credul-
ity of those approached.
The next six years will see st. Mar
ries grow to one of the larger and
most prosperous towns in the county
and her people are not going to tie
themselves up to Rathdrum promises
when they can bring the county seat
to this CITY, thereby placing It within
the easy reach of themselves without
Jeopardizing any ambitions they may
have for the future. One of the best
arguments they could use with
stranger contemplating locating in
their midst would be that he could
reach the county seat by boat without
change and long ride by team
across the prairie, The correspond
ent in the Gazette covers all these
points so completely, however. that
we feel any additional comment is
unnecessary, further than to say
that Occur d'Alene relies on the
good Judgment and friendship of st.
Maries for the vote of that town when
the test comes and we have every con-
tidenee that 1t win be heartily and
generously given
