HIGHLY FLATTE RED.

TO what extent a mans magma
ton win carry him is fully exempll-
fled in the last issue of the demo.
cratic voice.
Edltorially, the management of The
Tribune commented upon the demo-
cratic machine treatment of II. c..
James in his recent candidacy for
county Judge. Not an assertion we
made was denied by that great ex-
ponent of democracy, but he at
once begins a TRADE of personal
abuse upon c. f. Reavis, clubbing
him as the author in this very strong
language;
THE sweet sentimental strains
therein will at once be recognized as
the product of the pen of Mr.. Reavis.
No n eve becomes quite as senti-
mental and no one makes a greater
failure of hiding his identity"
We feel highly complimented by
having our product classed among the
high order that is always the pro-
duct of Mr.. Reavis' pen, but what of
Mr., Reavis? He certainly must feel
that the mighty have fallen when
such judgment is passed upon him
by his famed critic. We consider
Mr.. Reavis among the best writer's
in the state and we are always glad
TO give him space, but will say for
the benefit of this lost soul, to
whom a true and just statement of
facts is a stranger, that owing to a
press of personal business, Mr..
Reayis has not written a line for The
Tribune for months except such as
headed, Communicated"
We hope this explanation will
appease the wrath of his ~highness,
and that in justice to Mr.. Reayis, he
make public acknowledgment of
this gross injustice. WIN he act the
part of a man? You can guess.

Poor Richards Almanac.

A good example is the best ser
mon.
God heals. and the doctor takes
the fees.
You may be too cunning for one,
but not for all.
Words may show a mans wit,
but actions his meaning.
An ounce of wit that is bought is
worth a pound that is taught.
Keep you eyes wide open before
marriage, half shut afterwards.
Meier take a wife till thou hast
a house land a fire. to put her in.
If a man could have half his
wishes, he could double his trou-
bles.
Drink does not drown care, but
waters it and makes it grow faster.
If you would keep your secret from
an enemy, tell it not to a friend.
Good sense is a thing all need few
have, and none think they want.
Pride breakfasted with Plenty,
dined with Poverty, supped with
Infamy.
When out of favor none know
thee; when in, thou dost not know
myself.
If your riches are yours, why don't
you take them with you to the other
world?
Lend money to an enemy, and
thou'lt gain him; to a friend, and
thou'lt lose him.
Be civil to all, s~erviceable to many;
familiar with few; friend to one;
enemy to hone.
Work as if you were to live a
hundred years; pray as if you were
to die tomorrow.
The wise man draws more adyan-
tage from his enemies than the fool
from his friends.
A wise man will desire no more
than what he may get justly, use sob
erly, distribute cheerfully, and leave
contentedly.
Doing an injury puts you below
your enemy; %revenging one makes
o ever with him; forgiving it sets
you above him.

4 Wolf COMING.
One of The Shubert Successes Is
Coming Here.

Next Wednesday evening, Septem-
Der Il, at the Ceiling Theatre will
be a gala event among amusement
seekers, the occasion being the first
pesentation in this city of The
Wolf the latest play of Eugene Wal
ter, as produced BY the Messrs. Sam
S. and Lee shubert and the one that
created such a furore in New York
and Chicago where it enjoyed long
runs, to audiences that tested the
capacity of the theatres.
THE Wolf is said to be strong
in conception, dramatic in execution
and vitality interesting throughout. 1t
tells a story of that wonderful Hud-
son Bay country and of the primal,
eternal struggle between man for the
possession of a woman. Dark pas.
sion and pure sentiment are set in
opposition, but there is nothing hack
neyed. The men are not Of the famil-
lar stage type. nor are the scenes of
a mechanical order.
The father of Hilda McTavish is a
Scotchman whose narrowness of mind
drives his wife into the world. The
child, Hilda, is left behind. When
Mcdonald, a handsome American engi-
neer, appears, he eovets the simple
girl and engages old McTavish in a
plot to lure Hilda the way her mother
had gone. Mcdonald is not a william
for the gods" however, and deeds
of violence he leaves TO the hero,
which certainly seems to be contrary
to all the old traditions. 1t is here
that the critics claim the art of the
playwright is seen at its best.
There crops Jules Beaubien, a
French Canadian, with a streak of
Ojibway from his mother. Mcdonald

has left Jules sister to die with her
unborn babe. Jules recognizes him
and bides his time, Baptisto, his
loyal retainer, crosses himself gently
as he swears that unless Jules kills
Mcdonald, he will.
Jules overhears the plotting Of
Mcdonald and MeTarvish in refer
ence to the innocent Hilda. McDon-
aid has been married and was a gay
blade ON the White Way. Jules, of
course, loves Hilda. The man en-
ragged, declares he will crush her
life out with his bare hands. The
French Canadian %intervenes, striking
Mcdonald with his fist. The engi-
neer attempts to draw his revolver,
but Baptiste has him covered with a
shotgun, in the cabin window. At
this point the scene closes. and one
may imagine easily that the interest
has increased.
Immoral as he is, Mcdonald is
fearless and persistent. He takes
to the path and upon Jules.
He fires at him, but his shot does
not go home. Then the two engage
in the most realistic and fiercest
hand-to-hand duel ever seen on the
stage. Now up and down, rolling
over and over in the dim light for
fully a minute, the fighters struggle.
Finally one is seen to droy ~lifeless
from a stab wound. The victor
lights a match and the glowing face
of Jules is seen by the audience.
Seats will be placed on sale next
Monday morning.

surface for the real facts. But
the proof Is ample and has been
piled up by the democratic politicians
themselves in mass that can not be
overlooked except by him who will
not see.
The last session of the Nebraska
legislature, of u~nfayorable memory,
was directed by an overwhelming ma
jority in both houses and ruled over
by a democratic governor. Demo
cratic partisans were in complete con
troll and worked their sweet will
without let or hindrance. Was there
a halo OF non-partisanship" resting
above the democratic legislature and
the democratic governor? Was there
a rainbow of n%on-partisan promise
displayed In the political sky to as
sure republican officials and en-
ployes of the state that the demo
| cratic party stood for the man and
not the party label?p Not hat any
body could detect with the naked
eye. Instead of a show of non-part-
i%sanship the democratic party

statutary enactment was Mullen

rapidly as the legislative wheels
could grind out the necessary room
at the democratic pie counter. No
less than twelve separate laws were
passed to give the democratic gov
ernor power to remove republicans
from the service of the state and put
democratic partisans in their places
and those twelve enactments covered
every possible state employment that
could be reached by legislative effort.
This is a grand showing of which
democrats may found the claim of

be valuable evidence that democrats

Further and ineontrovertible evil
dence of the deceit in the democratic
"n%on-partisan' campaign this year is
the fact that the democratic politi-
clans of the state, the 'fine-workers'
and manipulators of the party, and
The ayowed democratic press of the
state, have all lined up solidly behind
the democratic candidates and are
fighting for their election tooth and

'non-partisan" this year when they

way. No republican voter should per-
nit himself to be deceived by the
shallow and ridiculous pretention.

old Dorset seaport, is in danger of

A Hypnotic Marriage.

London, Nov. 20.--Mr Harwood, a
relieving officer. told an extraordinary
story to the Farnham Guardians the
other day about a young woman named
Milane, who said she was married

The woman applied to the relieving
officer for an order for the workhouse.
She explained, he said, that her age
