GEoRDIE HORNS CHEST.
Los Angeles TimesD

Geordie Horn was a character well
known among the country folk # the
Scotch highlands twenty-five years ago.
He belonged to a class rather hard to
classify, for he was neither a tramp
nor a farm hand, although frequa lilly
following the habits of both. Wander
ing from farm to farm the greater part
of the time, he was kindly treated AVID
Hospitality entertained generally. While
he was man of unusual strength, he
was mentally weak and excee iingly
lazy.
Hes gle cute chiel, though slew
in the uptack' Understanding, was
the way a good many described niin.
One day he arrived at his friend, tie
doctors. and complained of severe
pain in his breast. The doctor handed
him a plaster. with instructions TO put
ii on his chest without delay Geordie
gave him one of his knowing looks and
took his departure. The doctor met hin
few days later and inquired how he
was feeling now. Geordie replied: Nae

WANTED: A NEW HIGH SCHOOL

The petition of the Ladies' Literary
club to the board of education asking
for new high school more centrally
located Is most conservative state
uent Of crying need in this city. The
present quarters OF the school are not
only located inconveniently. but they
are utterly inadequate. not to say dis
graceful, in a city OF this size. with the
number of pupils in attendance.
It is no exaggeration TO say that
many of the cEassrooms are so badly
ventilated as to be dangerous to the
health of the pupils. but the conditions
are such that most OF the young peo-
ple are required to expose themselves
IN inrlrment weather and he work Of
the institution is seriously handicapped

new gymnasium the arrangement OF
the stairways and exits is ridiculous in

that its sense of humor needs fixing. II

,sIARNEo AGAINST BRIBERY.

The New York Times, which is sup
porting Mr.. Taft for president. having
in mind the $500, 900 corruption fund
with which Mark Hanna defeated Mr..
Bryan in 1896. the $500, 900 which was
used for the same purpose in 1900 and
the money raised by President Roose-
welt from Mr.. Hartman and the
STANDARD Oil magnates four years ago,
cries out against bribery on the part
of the Republicans this year The
Times says:
n the country has any natural bent
that will elect Mr.. Bryan unless money
is used 10 turn the current OF It's VIII
into the Taft channel, then let II be So
Since 1880. at least, no presidential cam
paign has been fought out without very
large expenditure of money. In many
campaigns the sum mas been so large
that the explanation of Legitimate eX-
penditure" was pTepOsterous. Upon one
side or the other and very likely upon
both sides, there has been a great deal
of vote-buying. If our presidential cleo
lions are determined by the bribing OF
voters then il is useless to pretend that
we have republican form OF govern
ment Plutocracy would be better word
than democracy. When men who are
alike in patriotism. in pubic
spirit and in purse stand ready 10 deter
mine the choice of a president for
money payment. a condition exists that
becomes at once the greatest issue of
all.
Promises of special tariff favors and
federal positions are just as bad, if not
worse, than buying votes with the
cash, but il won't win this year.

A COURT EAvORITE.

In sharp contrast to the treatment or

grade of colonel, and the statement is
made that, having been in the civil
war. he is entitled TO go upon the re-
tired list as a brigadier general. The
war department records do not show
service in the civil war in the case of
this officer. but that will make no diff
ference TO the commander in chief of
the land ard sea forces of the United
States and the high eockalorum of all
animated creation. The lieutenant colo
mel will get the star and $1,000 year,
while Colonel Stewart will lose a por-
ton of the pay ne is now getting.
Colonel Stewart had heart disease in
1877. when he won the brevet of cap
tain for gallantry in action, when his
regiment was engaged in battle with
the Nez Perez Indians at Clearwater,
Idaho He doesn't seem to have mind
ed it then any more than he does now,
