One Cougar Laid Low.

The cougar population of Whitman
county is being fast decimated, over at
Elberton the depredations of one fero-
cious cougar" having ceased when a
well-directed shot laid yellow, sheep
killing cur low. But the most excit-
ing cougar tale of them all comes
from the country home of Jas. Small.
One of the frosty mornings early in
the week the Small dogs were making
great demonstration around the
chicken house, in which they had evil
IDENTIFY "treed' some chicken-l loving
varmit, and an investigation by one
of the younger Smalls disclosed the
creature crouching in dark corner of
the building. The only fire arm
available, light %, with which hos
tilities were opened. made no impress
sion on the enemy, and reinforcements
were called for, a neighbor and his
heavy rifle being telephoned for. land

entire neighborhood. armed with
rifles, shotguns, and pitchforks, was
soon enlisted and hurrying toward the
Small farm to take part in the big
cougar hunt.
The first heavy bore artillery to ar

on the hen house and after the first
discharge the vanquished enemy was
hauled out into the light of day. And
Whitman county was in debt So more

THE NEW PARTY.

The Independent League, which
met in delegate convention at Chi
cago last week, effected a National
organization under the name of the
independence party, and nominated
Thomas L. Higson of Massachusetts,
for President, and John T. Groves
of Georgia for Nice-President.
There is much in the platform of
this new party to commend, and it
is interesting to note that this new
organization is not to be utilized as
a tail for the Democratic kite. A
Kansas delegate undertook to spring
William ]. Bryan upon the conven-
ton as Presidential candidate, and
this so incensed the other delegates
that the offender was hustled from
the hall to preserve him from bodily
harm.
Bryan is deeply chagrined over
the outcome of last weeks Chicago
convention. He had hoped for some
sort of recognition. and instead was
given the cold shoulder to the extent
of arctic frigidity. The Independ-
ence party people appear to be really
in earnest, and will roll up vote in
New York next November that will
make Bryan weary. The Hearst
chain of newspapers, reaching from
the Atlantic to the Pacific, will give
the new party cordial support,
which will be gall and NORWOOD to
the Democratic campaign man
ayers, for whatever may be said
derogatory to Hearst, his news
papers WELD wide influence among
those who formerly voted the Demo
cratic ticket.

AN IMPORTANT AMEND
MENT.

One of the most important ques-
tons that the voters of this state
will have to consider this fall is an
amendment 10 the state constitution.
This amendment is very brief one
which gives the state power to spend
state money in building roads.
Wisconsin is about the last pro-
gressive state in the Union to con-
slider this plan of State Aid. All the
states about US are working under
this system and are building many
miles of improved roads.
Many persons who are unfamiliar
with the plan seem to fear that this
is a scheme 10 compel farmers to
build good roads whether they want
to or not, but it is no such thing.
1t is a plan under which any town
can get aid from the state after 1t
has, of it's own free will voted to i'm
prove it's roads. Under this plan
the farmers pay part of the cost
and everyone who pays state taxes
farmers, city people, and railroads
help to pay the rest. Most of the
state revenues are from corporations
that pay no local taxes, which, al
though they are benefited by the
prosperity that good roads bring,
cannot in any other way be called
on to pay a part of the cost.
Dean Russell of the Agricultural
College of the State University
makes the following statement re-
garding this amendment:
There is probably no tax laid
upon the farmers of our state which
is heavier than that imposed by poor
roads, and inasmuch as it is within
their power to relieve themselves
from this discrimination it would
seem that all, and especially the
agricultural classes, would recog-
nize the advantages in passing a
constitutional amendment which
will permit of state aid for the good
roads movement in Wisconsin. y

THE UNITED STATES SENA=
TORSHIP.

A Democratic exchange that
earnestly desires the retirement of
Hon. Isaac Stephenson from the
United States Senate, recognizing
the fact that his successor will be a
Republican, calls upon the Repub-
licans of the State to send to the
Senate man whose ideas are in
harmony with those entertained by
Senator La Toilette.
Although we are not in favor of
the reelection of Mr.. Stephenson
we are free to confess that the
chances for the success of the Mar
inette stateman are good. What is
termed the ultra-La Toilette follow
ing now seems destined to be diyid-
ed between Hatton and McGovern,
and Stephenson will carry a large
percentage of the less radical La
Toilette contingent, as well as a
heavy vote from the anti-La Toilette
wing of the party which gives him
an advantage over the candidates
who will divide the radical La Fol
lette vote.
Samuel A. Cook, whose election
we prefer, is conservative who will
draw votes from all factions, but
being less aggressive than his COM
petitors in the Senatorial race, de-
ponds for success upon the conserv-
ative element of the entire party
an element not welded to the per-
sonal political fortunes of any par
ticular individual. Mr.. Cook is the
candidate of neither a ring nor a
faction, and is in every respect the
peer of either of his competitors.
He is not a machine candidate, and
this fact should commend him to
the favorable consideration of anti
machine voters.

Many Thrills in "Fort Ridgley'
The Big Spectacle at the Minne-
sofa State Fair.

The largest outdoor Spectacular
production ever attempted will be
the feature of the evening entertain
ment in front1of the grandstand, at
the great Minnesota State Fair,
which is held midway between St.
Paul and Minneapolis, the first week
in September. This fair, which is
the largest on the American contin-
ent, has always been foremost in its
amusement department, and for the
past eleven years, has produced in
front of it's grandstand, night and
day, various entertainments, many
of which make our large circus
owners look closely to their laurels.
This year, in addition to the regu-
lar program of special attractions,
running races by search light, bal
loon races, fireworks, etc., there will
be offered a huge historical scenic
spectacle, in which will be utilized
1000 people, 800 of which will be
genuine Sioux Indians, from the
Sisseton agency, in South Dakota
who with their ponies, will be
brought to the fair for this purpose.
The spectacle will be known AS
Fort Ridgely in 1862" and will be
based on one of the events in the
Sioux war, which took place IN Min
nesota in the summer of 1862.
A reproduction of Fort Ridgely
will be constructed in the infeld OF
the half-mile track, and an attack on
the fort by Indians, several OF whom
actually took part in the original
fight, will be portrayed.
The splendid location for the pro-
duction, together with the extraor-
binary number of participants, make
this attraction one to be eagerly
looked forward to, for while it is ex-
pected to be made most realistic, all
terrifying or gruesome features Will
be eliminated.
1t is not an unusual state of affairs
to have the seating capacity of 3d.
900 tested, but in all probability,
this will be the case at every per-
Torrance, this season.
