Could Demand Correct Chance.

It will probably be an item of news to most of our readers that our genial postmaster is not com pelled to make change for you when you make purchases at Uncle Sam s office. This is a queer rule that one in thousant persons know. Buyers of stamps or any purchases at a postoffice must furnish their own change; i. e.. the could insist on the buy CT furnishing his own change if he sees fit to do it; but usually the postmaster is glad enough to get rid of his chicken feed" and he is always ready and willing to som- modate the public by making all the change 1t asks for. If a man wishes to buy fifty cents worth of stamps and has but a silver dollar. he would be compelled to buy a dollars worth of stamps or go and get his silver dollar changed or do without his stamps if the postmas- ter was stubborn and refused to make change for him. This is the law and a queer one according to our way of thinking. And post masters are not compelled to take more than twenty-five pennies at one time if they do not want them,

Mondays Election.

The vote here in the election Monday was 85 against 163 two years ago which shows amazing lack of interest. Of the vote at this box 50 were for and 5l against liquor license; GA for and l l against amendment No. 9; 28 for aed 54 against amendment No. 10; 56 for 19 against sale of native wine and 55 for and Is against road tax.
 The average vote received for the state and county candidates was 75 for the Democratic and l 1 for the Republican candidates. Attorney Pat MoNalley of Strong, Republican candidate for state senator led his ticket here, re- ceiying 20 votes. J. Sam Jones, Socialist candidate for governor, was the only on the ticket that did not receive a vote at this box.
 The total vote cast in the three polling places in Lapile township was 800 even. so of which were Republican. There were 155 votes for and Z8 against Amend ment No. 9: 59 for and l68 against Amendment No. 10; 155 for ano l58 against license: 155 for and lO5 against sale of native wine; l58 for and 1O6 against road tax.
 This is the first time Tn years th9t Lapile township has went dry. it always goes wet by a good ma jority.
 The estimated vote of the coun- ty was 22OO of which 800 were for the Republican ticket. The county voted dry by about 200 majority; gave Amendment No. 9 a big majority and defeated Amend ment No. 10. It is thought that the road tax carried by small majority.

A FAIR EXPRESSION OF
THE POPULAR OPINION

Whatever may be the outcome of the
presidential election in November, it
will com nearer representing the pop
ular opinion han any election since the
civil war. This year all the concomi-
tants of the old-time campaigns, such
as brass bands, marching clubs barbe-
cues, torch-light professions and bal
loon ascensions, have been missed. The
omission was no doubt due to the fact
that neither party has had any money
to waste on such frivolties. The Re
publican party has had hard work to
find sufficient funds to keep it's head
quarters open, while it is claimed that
the Democrats have depended for their
revenues solely upon small contri-
buttons by the masses.
This is as it should be, and as was
intended by the men who drafted the
constitution. In past years the corrupt
ing of voters has been an entirely too
common practice, and while the law
provides severe penalties for this class
of criminals, it has wei been impos-
sible to bring the successful bribers to
justice. On rare occasions, only, has
an isolated loser been made a scapegoat
of.
Tde man who betrays his country in
time of war is guilty of treason, and
the mar who corrupts his fellow citi-
zens in election time by appealing to
their cupidity or by taking advantage
of their necessities, should be equally
guilty in the eyes of the law.

THE STATE POLICE Law

The state police law will be submit
ted to the people at the November
election upon a referendum vote. The
voters will then be given an opportun-
ity to express their approval or disap-
prevail of the action of the legislature.
at its special session, in passig this
law. The verdict of the voters, how
ever, will not be mandatory, and should
the majority of votes be east against
the measure, the Legislature may use
it's own pleasure in regard to repeating
the law.
While the Democratic state conven-
tion expressed its approval of the law,
it is in no sense a partisan question,
Republicans of the state favor it's
repeal. If there are still counties in
the state where the local officers are
unable or unwilling to maintain law
and order and afford citizens protec
ton in the exercise of their constitu
tional rights, the law should not be
repealed. On the other hand, if all
sections of he state have assumed D
tranquil state, with no indications of
further trouble, it is possible that the
maintenance of a state constabulary
is q useless expense.
So far as Humboldt county is con
cerned, there has never been any need
of q, state police, as our efficient officers
have at all times been able to cope
with the situation. 1t is understood
that several Of the state police awe
visited this section on one or two occa-
sion, but they claimed to be looking
after violators of the game laws, and
came on their own motion.
The law has been given a fair trial,
and it now remains for the people to

CARTOONIST BUELL. DISCOVERS
AN EPICUREAN COYOTE

Cartoonist Buell. of the Gazette staff
went hunting the other Sunday and dis
covered a coyote that was IN epicure.
4 is barely possible, however, that the
newspaper man may have taken along
the same brand of Ammunition that
the Reno man who caught the baby
shark in the Truckee river used for
bait.
"You may not believe it, said
Buell., "and you may call me n nature

Gazette, and when we were opposite
the big boiling springs on the hills
above the road, we say a coyote run
away from one of the springs and sit
and watch us. We made no move, and
at last we saw the coyote going back
to the spring with a piece of sagebrush
in his mouth. This made MS curious
and we went up to the spring, frighten-
ing the coyote away.

never known before. We learned that
there are cpicureans among coyotes, as

WHY BUSINESS MEN SHOULD
VOTE AGAINST BRYAN

DctS VII. DINdn lnldSi1C bhdt thC
country has forgotten all about his
declarations in favor of government
ownership? Here is what he said at
the meeting in Madison Square Garden
in New York, August 80. 1906, just
after he returned from his tour around
the world:
of the membesr of the party to which
/ belong believe in the government
ownership of railroads, but my theory
is that no man can call a mass meeting
to decide what he himself shall think.
/ have reached the conclusion that
there will be no perceptible relief on
the railroad question from discrimina
ton between individuals and between
places, and from extortionate rates,
until the railroads are the property of
the government, and operated by the
government in the interests of the
people"
This was the solemn declaration Of
Mr.. Bryan two years ago, which he
urged with great eloquenee and elah-
orateness during the congressional cam
paign of that year.
Tn response to attacks made upon hiIn
in 1906 by leading Democrats for this
Socialistie and r~eactionary doctrine. he
qualified it thus: 81 favor the federal
ownership of the trunk lines only, and
the state ownership of agI the rest of
the roads,
AS this hedging added the chaos of =
conflict of authority to the general de.
moralization and destructiveness of
the government ownership folly, his
party leaders naturally disliked it even
more than the doctrine of straight-out
federal control for all the roads, which
he originally proclaimed. Many of
the leaders renewed their attacks upon
him. Nevertheless, in one shape or an
other, he chung to the government own
ership idea. In a letter to the Wall
Street Journal in April. 1907, he wrote.
!" For fourteen years after my entrance
into national politics / hoped for effect
i've railroad legislation, and was
brought reluctantly to the belief that
government ownership furnished the
only satisfactory remedy for the dis
elimination, rebates and extortions
practiced by the railroads, and for the
corruption which they have brought
politics."
What do the Democratic and Repub-
lican business men of the country
think, in the first place, Of a candidate
for president who would seriously pro
pose such a piece of Social
istic folly as the taking over by
the government of a railway system
with a capitalization of sixteen billion
dollars-for all the roads except a
few minor ones are engaged in inter
state commerce of some sort-and thus
add to the 100000 present employees of
he government the 100000 employees
If the railroads. Moreover, what do
hey think of a candidate who, accord

his conclusion after fourteen years OF
study, and then not only dropped It
