Dead dogs and the list grows.
Thursday George Kidd saw two yell
low Shepherd dogs kill four of r,
Manning Walkers sheep. He secur-
ed a gun and crippled one of the
dogs. Then getting into his buggy
drove to the city, got the City Mar
shall j. W. Stephens and hunted up
the dogs.
When found the wounded dog
was in bed at Bob Wright's and the
other one was under the house. Miss
Wright protested but the wounded
dog was taken from its downy couch
and shot and then the dog under
the house was shot.

bodies were taken to the Electric

of expenses. The democratic idea
is to tax those who have been dodg-
ing their taxes for years and years
and the republican idea is to put it
on the farms of the country. The
State Board of Equalization is now
democratic and favors leaving the
farms alone, believing that they al
ready pay more then their share,
while the republicans want to as
sess farm lands at their full value.
Twas ever thus; the democrats
have stood by the farmers and lab
orers and the republican party has
stood like like an adamantine rock

THE Southern army wasn't
quite whipped" DR.. Brady said.
There were individuals in it quite
capable of a little more healthy
fighting, and General Lee might
have disintegrated his army and
scattered it in small bodies through
the mountains of Virginia and Car
olinas, but he resolved that this
contest, which had been fought on
broad and splendid lines, should
not degenerate into a guerilla war
fare That was probably as great
an evidence of the quality and
character of the man as he pre-
scented in his whole career. Many
men are great in victory, but few
are greatest in defeat. Among
that few was General Robert E
Lee"

Recent Tariff History.

The Mckinley Tariff was the high
est eyer known at that time. 1t
made prices so high that it caused
great public discomfort, which in
1890 resulted in the election of a
Democratic House and in 1882
swept Democratic President into
Office with Congress Democratic
in both branches. The WilsOn-Gor-
man tariff made only a few slight
reductions, but it got the name of
being free trade" and all country's
money troubles at that period were
laid at its door AS quickly as pos
sible it was changed for the present
Dingley tariff which is higher ever
than McKinley's tariff.
Panic and severe hard times
had come under the Mckinley tar
if and continued under the Wilson
German tariff; but after about fiv
years of business depression pros
perity returned. By that time tn
Dingley tariff had gone into effeC
and most of the newspapers CAV
it the credit for restoring prosper
ty. Rightly or wrongly, a majorit
of the people have come to assoc
ate prosperity with a high tariffa
hard times" with a low tariff. Tn
history of the country does M
seem to justify this idea. The thrt
greatest panics. those of 1873, 1SS
and 1907. came while, the countI
had Extremely high tariffs. = Gu

Man and Wife.

A man selects a wife all by him
self, but he takes a couple of ex-
perts along when he goes to buy a
motor car.
If man wants his wife to notice
that button is off his coat let him
lay a twelve-inch golden hair in
careless wise across the vacant
spot.
When your wife goes away for a
week and then returns unexpected
ly at the end of two days, it is a
sure sign that she loves you very
much, or else that she wants to
see what you are up to.
Many a man wins his girls hand
only in after years to be under his
wife's thumb. Philadelphia Bulle'
