Cans often declared he did not know

the car down the fence for half q
mile.
The autos with the band boys
were waiting at Beaver on the re-
turn but disappeared to change
to their uniforms. At this point
in the proceedings the blue blood
of the Beaver men showed. They
informed the Meade men that
while Beaver had no walls and
consequently, no keys to turn
over, the town was Meade's and
everything was free. Prof. Won
Prosky now appeared with the
band down at the hotel and,
forming in line, they marched to
the principal corner, the drums
marking time. The band had
played several pieces when sup
per was announced. Were the
Meade men ready to enjoy sup
per? Well we should say yes.
They had made a run of 104H
miles for the day, all but % of it
being made after 100 P. NJ, and
if you think that is not enough to
work up an appetite you have an
other guess coming. Soon sup
per was being enjoyed along with
much happy and entertaining
conversation. Many compll-
ments we're bestowed on the
beef steak; later one reason for
its fine flavor was discovered in
the plainly apparent fact that the
Beaver butcher uses the old time
frontier method of keeping beef;
which is to hang it about thirty
feet in the air. There is nothing
like beef fattcned on buffalo
grass and hung up in the open
air, but Meade has too much
plowed land now to follow that
method. After supper the band
again played for a few minutes
on the street; then by direction
of the Beaver manager of the fes-
tivities, they led the way to the
court house. The court room
was packed with people. Mr..
Garrett, of the Beaver Telephone
Co., handled the program and
was general manager tor the
evening. Hon. ]. w. Culwell,

others of Beaver spoke. All
were in favor of a closer alliance
commercially with Meade. Of
the Meade boys Messrs Flick,
Stamper, Stevens, and others
addressed the Beaver folks along
the line of benefits to accrue
from a better understanding of
the best of both towns and the
way to utilize the advantages
possessed by each.
The music by Won Prosky's
band was the feature of the
evenings entertainment. Miss
Laura Mackey, who is so we'll
known here, sang a solo which
was encored. We have heard
Miss Maakey sing several times,
but never so entrancingly as at
this time and the same remark
was made by others who had
heard her before. Flick and Am
stutz sang a Dutch duet which
was encored and complied with;
the crowd wanted more, to which
Flick made the excuse that they
had left their books at Meade.
John Sweet played piano solo
which he was forced by the APP
plause to repeat. What pleased
the Meade crowd best we're the
speeches by the men of Beaver
on commercial topics. Mr.. Gull
well made several happy hits.
Mr.. Braldwood was logical and
recommended that Beaver profit
by opportunity to get Into closer
trade relations with Meade. Mr..
Quinn was entertaining and
ready for trade. Mr.. Culwell
feared that Beaver would loose
some of their girls for he said,
THAT while the Meade band
boys were good fellows, that
counted for little but that the
girls were simply gone on the
band uniforms"
Meade may in the future go to
many places but nowhere will
they meet with a more cordial
and whole-souled reception or be
met with larger and more gal
liant hospitality. Words fail to
describe the more than royal
welcome accorded the Mercantile
club at Beaver CITY.
Tuesday morning, after a few
pieces by the band on the street,
the return trip was begun with
pressing invitations to come
again. Hand shaking over,
Meade gave three cheers for
Beaver and with a return salute
from the Beaver people the levers
were pulled and we were on the
home stretch. At Hamilton a
short stop was made and few
pieces played by the band. For
ward again and when Miles was
sighted Old Glory appeared at
the mast head above the post Of
flee. When rounding up there
three cheers we're given for the
flag. Again all enjoyed an ex-
cellent dinner prepared by Mrs.
Busting and the hospitality ac-
corded us by Captain H. A. Bus
ing. Business is brisk at Miles
and there is good stock of goods
in the store. After dinner the
machines with the band came
directly home, for some of the
boys played in ball game here.
The other machines diverged
east on the flats north of the
Cimarron, going passed Uneda
post Office, Mr.. Eckhoff's, Henry
Brinckman's, on to Crooked
Creek. which was crossed in the
Judson Hubert pasture, then
over the breaks onto the flats at
Captain Painters ranch. A stop
was made at his residence for
water and to hear the Captain
talk and get one or two OF his
excellent stories, then on north
through the Mennonite colony to

Revised returns OF the congressional
elections while correcting many earlier
reports that appeared to carry authentic;
ity with them emphasize our prediction
made last Saturday that the insurgents
on the tariff question and insurgents on
general lines would fare so well at the
polls as to show that in many districts
they were unquestionably the true rep
resentatives Of the majority. The sup.
port given the insurgents in the real
West saved many seats to the Repub-
lieans that would otherwise have gone
to the Democrats, and some Of the most
conspicuous Of the representatives Of
that section who broke away from their
associates on the tariff have been re-
turned by pluralities that were given
with full understanding Of the issue
presented.
The success OF the majority Of the
insurgents who in the final struggle
over the tariff in the House event the
Whole figure" is strinkigly illustrated in
the fortunes Of the twenty who on Aug
4, 1909, voted with Champ Clark on bis
motion TO recommit the conference re-
port. OF these sixteen have been re.
elected, fy, have been defeated, and two
have been promoted to the Senate. In
the first category Messrs Cooper Esch
Lenroot, Hamilton and Norris are those
whose names are most easily recognized
as familiar by the ordinary newspaper
reader OF the East The rejected in
clude Hinshaw of Nebraska and Stafford
OF Wisconsin. Stafford has fallen before
the socialist onslaught III Milwaukee,
and indeed would not have been elected
in zoos had he not slipped in between
the fighting factions Of socialism. The
promoted are Townsend of Michigan and
Pcindexter of Washington, who have
been designated in the primaries OF their
respective states to go to the Senate
to succeed Burrows and Piles. Their
promotion IS the elearest possible popu-
lar approval OF their course in fighting
the Payne Aldrieh tariff to the last. The
bulk of the reelected insurgents are,
as is natural, from the West, but the
fact that Mr. Gardner Of New Jersey
appears to have got by, demonstrates
that his district sympathized with tar
i'll insurgency. There were, to be sure,
insurgents on Cannon as we'll as nsur.
gents Of the tariff. The former such as
Gardner OF Massachusetts,. Jared well at
the polls, while such noted Cannon
supporter as Alexander Of Buffalo who
had 10000 two years ago, is defeated
by one vote.
Many deductions may be drawn from
the election, but one seems incontro.
yertible, and that Is that in the West.
where the Republicans Jared best in the
congressional elections, the popular sym
patty with tariff insurgency was too
strong to be merely a coincidence. Boss

IRE practically as il came from the
House. That such measure should be
enacted into a law was distinctly prom
Used in the Republican platform, which
was endorsed BY every county conven-
tion Of the party in the state It was
OF course very heroic and all that for
Senator Archibald Of Bennington county
to stand up in the Senate and say in
effect that he purposed to follow the
dictates Of his own conscience in the
matter, but it would have been more
fair and square toed for him to have
refused his objection to this measure
in his county convention. The conven-
ton could then have excepted this plank
as it did the wabbly one on local OPP
ton, if it had been so disposed; or if it
was the voice Of the convention that
the resolution be retained, Mr.. Archibald
could have refused to be a candidate,
and thus have shown a commendable
independence. Senator Gordon of Wash
iligton county, has performed a valuable
service to his party in his able support
OF this platform resolution. No po-
litioal party, even as strongly entrenched
as the Republican organization in Yer
mont, can 60 on breaking its pledges to
the people without paying the penalty
sooner or later. The News say all this,
not as an advocate OF the $40 trustee
measure, for it is inclined to doubt if
such a law would prove Of any value
to those who have asked for it, but be-
cause it believes that promise once
made by political party should be as
conscientiously performed as one made

Remarkable Facts About the Lives Of
the Six Leading Insurgent SEN
ators.

Ray Stannard Baker contributes a
great article to the November American
Magazine on the present political situa-
ton Mr.. Baker is probably the closest
observer of influences and trends that is
writing to-day, He believes that the
insurgents are sure to win Speaking of
the character and lives of the progress
i've leaders in the Senate, he says;--
Though the Senate In recent years has
won the name of 'millionaires' club not
one of the six insuTgent senators Is a
rich man. All of them, ! think without
exception, are living on their none too
generous salaries, supplemented with
what they can add by lecturing and writ
ing. The same thing is true OF every
nsurgent in the House, with one possible
exception. Even Roosevelt has to work
for his living All of the insurgents in
both houses are peculiarly men of the
people, most of them OF humble origin,
self-made in the best sense, with deep
knowledge of the intimate life and prob
lens OF common people. Cummins, for
instance. was of a large family OF chill
dren His father was carpenter, and
Cummins himself learned the carpenters
trade and worked at it for several years.
He was for time railroad express
messenger, then a railroad surveyor. He
made his way upward by dint Of de-
termination and hard work. After study.
ing law in Chicago, he came TO be the
foremost lawyer in Iowa LaFollette

when he was fourteen years old, leaving
his mother a widow with four children
He became head OF the family and
worked on the farm until he was nine
teen; and after that not only worked
his way through the university, but sup
ported his fathers family while he was
doing it. Delivers father was an itin-

schooling, became a country teacher, and
finally a lawyer. Bristow was trained
in a country printing Office and Clapp
was born on a Wisconsin farm, worked
on a river steam boat and came up in a
country law Office. Beverage met the
most desperate obstacles. Born on
farm, he was doing a mans work in

years old, He worked his way through
college, taking almost enough prizes for
oratory TO pay for two years of the
course, and came out broken in health
