TENDERFEET HIT THE TRAIL.
Long Hike for Coon Hunters, but
 Worth the Pains.

Saturday night was a big night for the more than twoscore members of the Bohemian club who went coon- hunting up in the vicinity of East Killingly. It was a mighty long tramp for most of the party and nearly all of them were tenderfeet. The tramp through the woods is estimated at a little less than 20 miles. but 19 of those that started finished the trip and without any great discomfort.
 George Jacques of East Killipgly, who was the guide for the party, to many of them he now appears s5 the Bwana Tumbo of this county--says that it was the greatest coon hunting party that ever made good in that section--and George knows. Tramp ing along through the woods in a long drawn out single file, with lanterns marking the position of each man, the sight was such one as has never before been seen in the gloom of the heavily wooded country where the hunt was held.
 The peculiar thing about the trip was that the two coons were treed and captured when the party had been The rest of the night the party walked without reward except for the fun they made.

IN THE ELEVENTH DISTRICT.
TSnirtf Lake Reacon

Ali Sioux county would seem 10 have
gotten together for Congressman Hub
bard at the Ireton banquet, and this
makes 1t appear more probable than
ever that the district will do likewise
when the republican roll is called next
June.
The political situation in the Elev-
enth district is most significant. 1t is
violating no confidence to say that a
year ago it was generally assumed that
Mr.. Hubbard was securing his last
term, and it is more than likely the
congressman was in accord with this
view. Intimate friends intimate as
much. This congressman at the reg
ular and special session intervening
has lost no opportunity to occupy the
| firing line of opposition to Cannon and
| all that his name and organization and
character imply. and to vindicate or
all possible occasions the alert con
science of the best type of republican
/ ism. He opposed the unrepublican I'M
American house rules. He refused tt
enter a caucus with proceedings GU
and dried for Cannon. He went to thu
ditch with the few gallant party spirits
who demanded fair and intelligent con.
sideration of the tariff schedules. In
solar as there exists a reactionary ele
ment in this district it could not hav,

have had hunch to stand from under
If they do not want service at Wash
ington such as Hubbard affords.
What is the result? The largest
measure of district unanimtty in the
approval OF Hubbard and his attitude
in the house. Opposition on factional
lines nowhere proposed. Excellent men
of his own political view who have
given evidence of aspiration for his
seat unwilling to enter the race be-
cause they would not have the impress
sion go to the nation that Hubbard is
discredited at home because of his
stand in congress. Without scheming,
without activity, without effort in his
own behalf except as devoted to the
public welfare, Mr. Hubbard looks
about his district to find the ways
creased for another slide into congress
and only a rash prophet would now
predict any serious opposition to this
program.
The man Hubbard, tho worthy OF
general confidence and respect, is q
mere incident in the proceeding. The
self rising, automatic propelling move
ment that is carrying him back tc
Washington has its inspiration, its
vitality and its effectiveness in the ir-
repressible conviction that he stands
for a redeemed republicanism and g
greater and better national character.
