Civilization,

Civilization.
Run like mad to make a train
And find the train is late:
Wake UP with an awful pain
And wonder what you ate;
Read hone but best selling books
And can't tell what you've read;
Talk Of dresses, cash and cooks.
Or who is being wed;
Live some place a little while
And then desire to move;
Every week a change of style
To keep us from a groove;
Busy signals on the phone
Just when you want to talk;
Auto tires to hits are blown :
And then you have to walk; AZ
Modern transportation lines
Without a place to sit:
Landscape hid by painted signs
That make you throw a fit;
Daily scandal over graft
And statesmen swearing mad;
Half the people wholly daft
And everybody bad;
Noise around and on each side
And smoke all through the air,
People rushing eager-eyed,
Not getting anywhere;
Someone makes a hit today,
Tomorrow he's forgot;
All must work and none MAJ play
This is the human lot.
Modern work and modern life,
Advantages supreme,
A whirling, %seething, endless strife
How restful 1t would seem
To find the olden, golden days
That we have long despised,
And ignorantly walk our ways
And be uncivilized!

This provision makes it appear neces-
sary for each person receiving pay

has expended more than the amount
he is allowed to eXpend.
Provision is made for maintaining
the party organization and for that
purpose conventions shall be held at
which the organization is continued
and declaration of party principles
is made. This is done as follows:
Within a week after the primaries
the successful county candidates shall
meet and elect county central com
mittee Of their respective parties, such
committee to consist of not less than
one, nor more than three members
from each precinct in that county.
This county central committee may

trict Office the petition must be signed
by at least three per cent Of the party
voters Of the district and if for
county office by five per cent of the
party voters of the the county. The
petitions for a state office may not all
come from one county for the law re-
quires that at least three per cent Of
the voters Of four counties must be
obtained For a county office five
per cent Of the party voters Of at least
one-fourth of the precincts must be
secured.
Signers of petitions may not sign
the petition for more than one candi-
date for the same office and must sig
nifty their intention Of supporting the
candidate for whom they petition.
Before candidates name may be
placed on the official primary ballot
he shall signify in writing, or some
one in his behalf shall signify in writ
ing, at least 30 days and not more
than 60, before the primary election
that the prospective candidate is a
member Of the party whose candidate
he proposes to become, naming the Of
flee, and that he is legally qualified to
fill the office and represents the princi-
pies of that party.
The petitions fled asking for the
nomination must be accompanied by
an affidavit that each person whose
name is attached actually signed the
petition, that they reside at the adj
dress given, that they signed it on
the date given in connection with
their names and that they belong to
the same political party as the can
didate, but no petition may be re-
ceived which was signed before June
10 Immediately preceding the primary
election. This gives about 45 days in
which to secure petitions for nomi-
nation.
Within 10 days for state and dis
trict offices and within five days for
county offices there shall be filed a
formal written acceptance of the nomi-
nation by the candidate, in default Of
which his name shall not be placed on
the official ballot.

candidates appearing in alphabetical
order under the office and party desig-
nation. This notice shall be publish
ed at least once a week for two sue
cessive weeks in two newspapers repre-
senting the two parties receiving the
highest number of votes at the last
election if any such papers, and if not
then in any two most likely to give
notice.
The "Oficial Primary Ballot" shall
be separate for each party, uniform in
size, color and printing. A qualified
elector appearing at the primary polls
to vote shall be given ticket Of each
of the parties, but shall vote for the
candidates only upon one, the other
to be given back and thrown into the
waste ballot box. The purpose of
this is to prevent the voting Of a
scratched ballot by any voter, that is,
to prevent a democrat, for instance,
from voting for republican candidates,
or republican voters voting for dem
Ocratlc candidates.
BY reason of the fact that blank
space is left on each ballot it might
appear that an opening would be left
for just such voting, but the law pro
vides that should the name of a can
didate be written in this blank space
who is a candidate upon another ticket
such ballot shall not be counted. Thus
should Governor Brady be candidate
for nomination for governor and the
democrats believe that he would be a
good candidate for them to have in
opposition, they could vote for him.
but such votes would not count in
nominating him. The result might
be announced "James III. Brady 90
600 votes as republican" and James
II. Brady, 5000 votes as a democrat, =
but the nomination would not be his
provided some other republican got
more republican votes, because the
democratic votes would be thrown
away. If he should happen to get
more such democratic votes than any
regular democratic nominee, he could
by declaring his intention in writing,
accept the democratic nomination thus
rendered him, but he would have to
run as the democratic candidate.
Officers of election, registration,
counting and canvass Of ballots and all
things pertaining to the primary cleo
ton, are regulated and governed the
same as for general elections, and all
expenses are to be paid by the coun-
ties in just the same manner.
Candidate'S Expenses
The expenses which candidate may
legally create are only Personal EX-
pensesN, which are defined to be "only
expenses directly incurred and paid by

These are the expenses allowed III
securing the nomination only. There
is no limit fixed to the amount that
may be expended afterward for the
purpose Of being. elected.
When May He Spend 1t?
The law does not state the time
within which this expense must be
figured. Thus, would candidate be-
ginning now to lay fix fences and pull
his wires for a nomination to be made
two years from now, be required to
certify to all expenses created from
this date, or for number of years
running back? A fair presumption
might be that since petitions may be
circulated beginning June 10 preced-
ing primary, that only such expenses
as are created after that date should
count. But this would give the office
holders much the best of it, as also the
machine candidates who may use his
machine for the whole two years.
Must ltemize Expense
Every candidate for nomination,
whether successful or not, must file a
sworn statement of his expenses with

Melville Is SkepticaI.

Philadelphia, September 2-"After reading the despatches today, am more convinced than ever that the reported discovery of the north pole is a fake was the emphatic declaration of Rear Admiral Geo. Melville. II. s. A., retired, who is intimate with the northern re- gions and is familiar with the progress of expeditions thither within the last forty years.
 'I do mean to say that Dr. Cook is a faker. I do not know him personally But from my experiences I would say that there is nothing to confirm the orig inal dispatches. Some of the best equipped expeditions have cost from $l50,0O0 to $200,000 I know that Dr. Cook had no such outfit
 There is nothing in the story thus far told to indicate that pr. Cook has found anything new. Indeed, I cannot see why the reported story of his expe- dition could not have been written by anyone who had reached within 100 miles of the pole. l could sit in my office and invent observations of all sorts. Yet no one can positively deny the truthful ness of Dr. Cooks story. l have heard that the Royal Geographic Society is reported to have dscredted it. If this Is so. I will reiterate more strongly than ever that while Dr. Cook may have dis covered the north pole, it being a pos sibiiity. yet 1t is highly improbable.
 According to Dr. Cooks story, no mention is made of the travel from April
