An imaginative Statesman.

Imagination is the greatest moving force in the world. In saying this am merely repeating a remark of Dis raeli's, and to prove the strength of his conviction will repeat story Mr. Lowell told me when he was minister to England. It is the custom of the Royal Academy of Painters to hold a private view of their pictures before the public exhibition. Disraeli, walk ing arm in arm with Browning through the galleries, said, What strikes me most forcibly here Is the lack of imagination" and he proceeded to enlarge upon the power of magina- tion, declaring 1t to be the greatest force in the world. In responding to ! toast at the banquet which followed the private exhibition he dwelt upon the wealth of imagination in evidence on the walls about him and again ex- pressed his conviction that imagina- tion is the moving force in the world. Browning repeated Disraelis first re- mark to Gladstone, who sat beside him, and he muttered, "The devilv'- John Trowbridge in Atlantic.

Lord Pauncefote suffered greatly from rheumatic gout in his latter days, and he walked stitfly and sometimes had to use two canes. He went one afternoon to make a call, and he re- nained quite long time, so long that lhe horses got restive. and the groom walked them up and down the street. When Lord Pauncefote left the houss Ihe carriage was not .n front. and, Thinking there WAS some mistake ir bis orders, he started to walk to the ambassy. which was only a square 0. two. But ne had twinges of his old enemy, and the pavements were icy. He was q large, heavily built maa, and he feared a fall. While he was pondering over his dilemma along rame young man in working clothes, and the British ambassador. after a courteous salutation asked: My friend. will you walk beside me and help me home?

First Cantalever Bridge.

The first cantalever railroad bridge Is the one across the Firth of Forth at Queens Ferry. Scotland. It is nearly one and half miles in length. Fifty one thousand tons of steel were used in it's construction, employing as many as 5000 men at one time. It cost $16,- 100000 and fifty-six lives. The work men began at either end and worked toward the center. When they met and undertook the last connection 1t was found that the two ends lacked a Bmall fracion of an inch of reaching far enough to allow the insertion o1 the bolts that were to complete the span. For time this was a puzzle, but was finally solved by an ingenious workman who suggested expansion by artificial heat, and 1t was forthwith supplied by means of burning kerosene oil under the steel girder.

Where Wives Are Kept Under.

A Chinese Mrs. Caudle is incon. eeivable, for she would promptly be returned to her father labeled "Too muchee bhoberry." Only by one means can the lady obtain any right what. ever to use even the mild .ioral sua- sion wherewith ths tactful western wife is won't to turn events to her lik- Ing. If as bride the Chinese woman succeeded in sitting on any corner of her husbands clothes at the moment when, halfway through the nuptial ceremonials, they first seat themselves eide by side she is understood to oc. cupy the position of mistress in her own house. Even then 1t generally stops at nderstanding.-From ''Things Seen In China," by J. R. Chitty.

The anniversary of Abraham Lincoln
today recalls the fact that while he
was the father of the republican party,
he was the most thoroughly indepenJ-
ent statesman this nation has ever
produced AS the child of the great
Lincoln the republican party has been
wayward and ungrateful. Lincoln was
an example of absolute independence
in politics and only believed in party
, organization as means to an end In
these latter times let us hope that
more men will emulate his teachings
and place patriotism above party. The
silly cry Of vote straight never came
from Lincoln. He was too great and
too good for such a dangerous doctrine
to find lodgment in his thought or his
life. There is now so much difference
in the two great political parties in
this country as to separate men and
blind them to the real good that is in
them

WANT LAW REGULATING
BANK OvERDRAFTS

Oklahoma City, Okla, Feb H.
Early next week members of the Ok
ilahoma City Retailers Association will
make an effort to have the state legis-
lature consider a law regulating over
drafts on bank accounts For some
time the proposed law has been dis
cussed by the business men of the
city, and they have given their unan-
imous support to it.
The proposed law provides that it
shall be a nisdemeanor for any one
to draw check, draft or order on
any bank or financial establishment
for funds, when sufficient funds to
cover the amount of the check or draft
are not on deposit
A fine of not less than $25 nor more
than $100, or a sentence in the county
Jail of not less than 10 nor more than
100 days or both. AS protection to
those who make overdrafts uninten-
tionally, a provision is made whereby
when the deficit is made good he will
not be prosecuted
The object Of the law is to reach the
man who after depositing $1OO, at
tempts to draw out $780,
Efforts will also be made to have
the laws governing exemption from
seizure In debt cases changed.
The retailers are also using their
influence to prevent the passage of
the parcels post law in Washington.

Some of our friends on Scraper
street think the Chieftain is unfair to
them inasmuch as they have always
been III favor of the improvement of
that sadly neglected thoroughfare SO
close to the business section. In this
as in many other things the wrong
people are hit The men who have
systematically prevented the improve
ment of Scraper are satisfied, it is
presumed, with present conditions but
it is indeed hard on the bunch of pro-
gressive, plucky fellows who have
built the Empire block, which by the
way, is one of the best buildings in
the city.
