A novel and determined contest for

Stephens and John Saugstad we're
rival candidates for the republican

Stephens won out by small plurali-

at the November election his adherents
propose to conduct a red-hot fight for

Preparations are being made by the
treasury department for the Inaugural
ton of the postal savings bank sys-
tenn, but the government is a particu.
larly slow mover, and people who are
boarding up pelf in their cellars or
other places would make money by
unearthing it and placing it in their
local banks. Even when the postal
savings banks are established the
town in which you live will probably
not get one for long time, and then,
again, so far as we can ascertain.
there are too many restrictions-too
much red tape-connected with the
system. Besides, the interest paid
will be very small.

fellows brain, killing him instantly.
Berg was being fred at by an OK.
pugilist who, when be realized that he
had shot the boy, ran into a building
and committed suicide. Coroner
Feinberg, in addressing the scoundrel,
said: "You are dirty dog and the
best thing that can happen to you is
to get justice, and get it quick" To
compare this fellow with dog-even
"dirty" dog-is a libel on the last
named. He is not only a consummate
coward, but an Internal rascal lower

P lans for raising the battleship
Maine have been approved by Presi-
dent Taft and the contract calls for
the completion of the work before
February Is next. The paramount
question in raising the Maine appears
to be to determine whether the source
of destruction was from the outside or
inside of the vessel. The undertaking
will necessarily involve the expen-
diture of a large sum of money which
might be used to much better ad-
vantage.

Investigations made by Director
Durand of the census bureau have
brought to light frauds in the shape
of padded returns sent in by a number
of large cities, and President Taft has
directed that persons implicated in
such frauds be prosecuted. Mime

mentioned as being affected by. the
frauds. After all there seems to be
some truth in St. Paul's accusation
that Minneapolis padded it's census.

Marshal Chas. Ringer, who last week

the fire department is so inextricably

is greatly hampered and, therefore,
he declines to consider the position
