story Of the Killing.

In a long letter found In his suit
case, Carmichael told in detail the
story of the killing of Browning; how
he had fallen a victim to Browning's
hypnotic power and meeting him in
the church Tuesday night, was COM
PEELED to obey every command; how
finally when Browning attacked him
with knives, he, Carmichael, defended
himself with a Ratchet. After killing
his victim with the Ratchet, he said,
the red-hot stove in the church sug
gested itself as the best method of
disposing of the body. Before putting
the body in the stove, however, he ex-
changed some of the dead mans cloth
ing for his own, which had become
despatched with blood.
Carmichael's death was almost as
sensational as that OF his victim. When
he arrived at the Hughes boarding
house, he gave the name Of John
Elder and as he said he was wood
worker and had come here to start
factory no suspicion was attached to
his presence. Once he went to
Catholic priest and declaring himself
a Catholic asked his influence. In help

dications Of brooding over the murder,
although all this time he must have
thought about it almost constantly,
for the written confession had been
prepared and was concealed in his
room. Although so far as he knew he
was still beyond the reach of de-
tectives, the crisis came Monday when
about 1880 o'clock he Informed Miss
Hughes that as no satisfactory site

THE THINGS WE MEANT TO DO

When at some mystical behest
Life greets us with its first en-
brace.
And with a blind but growing zest
We learn the strange earth face to
face;
Through Orient clouds we love to
trace
A shining pathway in the blue,
Where gods inspire our eager chase
To do the things we meant to do.
At noon tide on the sullit crest
The zenith glow subdues our peace,
But still that vision of the best
Blots out the petty things and base
The hurrying byways interlace,
Pale. broken dreams the wayside
strew,
Too swift the hours. too straight our
case,
To do the things we meant to do.
The shadowy lands of the west
Grow rich with days declining
grace,
They proffer us the cup of rest
The guerdon of hard won race.
There is no lovlier dreaming place,
And yet our restless souls would sue;
Grant US, grant us a little space
To do the things we meant to do.

AN UNUSUAL MAN.

An unusual man is Judge Gaynor
newly elected mayor of New York
Just now there is all sorts of specu.
lation regarding what he will do af.
ter he becomes mayor, Who win be
appointed to office? Nobody knows
for the simple reason that Judge Gay
nor will appoint whom he pleases and
he has not yet seen fit to make any
announcements upon the subject. All
that he has said thus far is that he
will quarrel only with scoundrels. -
This is rare situation for New
York. Usually when man is elected
mayor people know pretty well what
will be done, The offices will go to
his friends" or in other words to
those who worked for his election
But Judge Gaynor has no friends of
this sort or at least none who have
any strings upon him. True Tam
many helped elect him. But he did
not ask Tammany's support He was
not a Tammany man. Previous to
the campaign he ,,ad never been in
side Tammany headquarters He in
suited most of the Tammany leaders
whom he met during the campaign.
l: is evident Tammany has little hold
upon him.
However it is evident from the way
they voted that the people of Goth
am wanted such a man as Gaynor for
mayor. Probably they were tired Of
having puppet mayors with machine
bosses to direct their actions. Prob
ably they wanted man whom they
believed would be mayor in fact as
well as in name. If so let it be
hoped they have chosen one.

THE sowER.

A sower went forth to sow,
His eyes were dark with woe:
He crushed the flowers beneath hi,
feet,
Nor smelt the perfume warm ant
sweet,
That prayed for pity everywhere,
He came to a field that was harried
BY iron and to heaven laid bare;
He shook the seed that he carried
Ger that brown and bladeless place
He shook it as God shakes hail
over a doomed and.
When lightnings interlace
The sky and the earth, and his wand
OF love is a thunder fail,
Thus did that sower SOW;
His seed was human blood,
And tears of women and men,
And |. who near him stood,
said: when the crop comes, then
There will be sobbing and signing.
Weeping and wailing and crying
Flames and ashes and Woe
lt was an autumn day
When next l went that way,
And what, think you, did | see?
What was 1t that / heard?
The voice of sweet voiced bird?
Nay-but the songs of many,
Thrilled through with praise and
prayer
Of all those voices not any
We're sad of memory;
And sea of sunlight flowed,
And a golden harvest glowed!
On my face fell down there;
And I said: Thou art wise
God of the earth and skies.
And l thank thee, again and again,
For the Sower whose name is Pain"

BALLINGER AND CLAWS.

There is more involved in the Bal
linger-Glavis fight than the average
man supposes. 1t is not simply
quarrel between the head of de-
partment and a subordinate who has
been discharged. It is not that any
more than is the Ballinger-Pinchot
feud a personal fight between the
secretary of the interior and the
chief forester.
The Ballinger-Glavis fight is one OF
the surface features of a titanic
struggle that is now on between two
elements within this country On
one side are arrayed certain men or
groups of men who want to acquire
possession of such resources as coal
lands. water powers and timber. On
the other hand stand the forces Of
conservation and they want to have
the remaining natural resources held
by the government until provision is
made for developing them in the in
terests of all the people. Clifford
Pinchot is the field marshal of the
conservationists and he is rendering
truly valuable and patriotic service
to his country
Until a year or so ago there was
no controversy regarding the natural
resources save that some men who
sought to acquire agricultural or
grazing land met with opposition.
Those who were out for the big
things, to-wit, timber, coal and more
lately, power sites, met with but lit
tie difficulty. AS a result the timber
of the United States is now practically
cornered by lumber syndicates and the
price Of lumber advances steadily.
Most of the coal in this country pro-
per is also taken while another trust
has made good progress towards
gobbling up the water powers of the
country. Had Clifford Pinchot not
given the alarm the power sites would
undoubtedly have gone the way of
our timber and coal.
But the warning has been given
and people everywhere are now on
guard. Disinterested public men now
see that the government has made
colossal mistake in allowing the nat
uraI resources, the birthright Of all
the people to be gobbed up by few
men for mere song. They foresee
that II the process is allowed to go
on it will be only a little while until |
q capitalistic combination will virtu |
ally own the country and there will be !
danger Of an upheaval So they want |
to do the best they can by saving what
is left in the way Of resources.
In Secretary Ballinger the country |
has an official who is supposed to be
committed to the conservation policy /
He may be entirely honest. But he is
easy. He is not a proper trustee and /
II the charges made against him by
Claws are half true he is not sincere
ia his support Of the conservation
policy.
AS for Claws he at least must be
given credit for sincerity. II not sin
cere and honest in his stand why did
he risk mis- official neck by reporting
his chief to the president? Why did
he not stand in" with Balllnger and 4

the others in the interior department
and still hold his job. CLAWS de-
serves to be regarded as an honest
courageous public servant With dis
interested people he will stand as such
until his charges against Ballinger
have been proven false.

NO ANARCHISTS NEEDED.

A reasonable explanation of the
Industrial workers demonstrations at
Spokane seems to be found in the fact
that a large percentage of the men
are foreigners and have never been
naturalized. They will now be deport-
ed and the entire country will be the
better for their going. This country
needs no immigrants of the type that
defy just and proper laws like the
one that forbids public speaking on
the business streets of Spokane. Am
erica needs thrifty foreigners who
come for the purpose of earning hon
est livings and who are ready to do
their part towards maintaining this
government of the people. But an
archists are not desired and they will
not thrive in this country and especi-
ally in the west.

Marrying Abroad.

The responsibility for the present
humiliatlng slave-trade In which rich
American girls are sold to the titled
decadents of England and the Cont.
nent is almost wholly the fault Of the
men of this country. This opinion Is
offered only after years Of observation
and consideration of our social condi-
tions, and after pathological study OF
American men. Their open astonish-
ment and chagrin at this phenomenon
would be vastly amusing were 1t not
so pathetic. Our men have a helpless
inability to see themselves. Nor Is
the responsibility of the mother lost
sight of, for the foreign sultor begins
with her, as he does in Europe. She
Is the outer citadel, which must first

This outer citadel is carried with
astonishing ease, as he quickly discov-
ers, and for three reasons. The moth

belongs; her husband has made every

without which there would not be this
problem to solve. Second, the women

who estimate him at all Justly, who
begin even to understand mems social
standards either in this country or Eu.

The American mother is clearly out
of her depth at the start, as unfit as Q

not equipped for 1t. II is not her work.
