Chris. P. Ellingson's formal an
nouncement of his candidacy for the
assembly was given to the press of the
district this week. We do not believe
that there is a man in the district who
possesses greater qualifications for that
office than Mr.. Ellingson. Good bust
ness Judgment, clear and fapid thinking,
moral stamina, high sense of public
duty, combined with good-fellowship,
would make him an ideal representa-

Written for the Budget by Al Peterson, Gran
Lumber Jack Poet
Long is the time when in bed you must lie,
For truly it's hard to be sick,
But one must be patient take it all as it comes
For it never will help if you kick.
Let us stop for to think of unfortunate ones,
Who never can say they well,
Let us do what can, For unfortunate ones,
Who of life's pleasures never can tell
REFRAIN
You who are well and so happy,
Who are blest with the riches of life,
You can tighten the burdens of many,
You can help in their long bitter strife
You can cast them bundle of sunshine,
Throw kindness and love in their way.
Many bright things you could leave them
As you hasten by every day.
AS you walk the streets in the city,
Unfortunate ones you will see,
Some who are bent with rheumatics
Others are blind and can't see.
In hospital wards you will see them in pain,
Their faces in agony are drawn,
So just let US do what little we can,
AS through life we hasten along.

One senator among go doesn't count
so very much in the way of voting but
even one able, determined and agrees
i've member can make things mighty
interesting sometimes. When LaFoll-
cite entered the senate united and
systematic effort was made to ignore
him, to 'haze" him. Alone but I'M
daunted he began and continued to fire
facts and arguments regarding condi-
tions that demanded legislation at that
august body, the "Millionaires' Club"
so-called. These facts and arguments
were also given to the public, and the
public began to inquire; also occasion
ally a state sent a new senator to
Washington to look into things. At
present about dozen senators line up
for progressive ideas, and the hazing
tactics have been abandoned.
An interesting illustration of the in
fuence of the handful of Progressive
occurred recently. When the bunch of
northwestern railroads announced a
general advance of freight rates, La
Toilette introduced a resolution in the
senate calling upon the attorney gen
eral to begin an action to restrain the
roads from putting the increase into
effect Realizing that it wouldn't do
to open up the railroad situation to
LaFollette's fire, the machine controlled
majority refused to take up LaFollette' s
resolution, but sent c. Q. d. signal to
the department of justice. The de-
partment awoke from it's peaceful
slumbers and began an action along
the line demanded by the resolution.
While it was no doubt disagreeable to
Wickersham to prosecute such good
campaign contributors, it was far pref
cradle to allowing LaFollette an oppor-
tunity to present the situation to the
public.

BAD LANGUAGE
OVER TELEPHONES.

The Iowa Court of Appeals has de-
cided a telephone company may not
deprive subscriber of his wire be-
cause he chooses to use bad language
over it. The learned Judges remark
it is the business of the company to
supply phones and not to make rules
limiting what may be shouted into
the transmitter by heated subscribers.
In connection with this decision one
cannot help recalling that pitiful in
cident in Philadelphia where girl
operator killed herself after being
grossly insulted over the wire.

Who are the real Insurgents? The
railroad bill passed by the Senate,
nodded into its present shape by the
efforts of the Progressive Senators,
was given the hearty endorsement of
President Taft. When it went to the
House, Representative Lenroot moved
it's adoption, and nearly all the Pro-
gressives voted for the motion. but it
was killed by a combination of the
stand-patters and a bunch of eastern
Democrats.

a cork bored with two holes to which
glass tubes or stout straws have been
fitted Straight pieces Of macaroni
will do for tubes, by the way. One
of the tubes should rise several inches
higher above the cork than the other.
The insertion of the cork into the
full bottle will force water up in both
tubes, and perhaps cause it to over
flow from the short one. If 1t does
not, pour water into the long tube UNI
til 1t flows out of the short one, then
close the latter with the finger or a
bit of wax, and continue pouring UNI
til the long tube is filled also.
Now, If you invert the bottle, keep
ing the short tube closed, the pres
sure of the air will prevent the water
running out of the long tube.
Plunge the short tube into the full
tumbler, leaving the long one out
side, as in the illustration, and remove
the finger of wax, as the case may be-.
At once water flows from the long
tube and at the same time water is
sucked from the tumbler up hill into
the bottle through the short tube. The
bottle and tube, you see, make a
siphon, and the up hill flow goes on
until the tumbler is emptied, if the
short tube is long enough to reach
the bottom of it.
The instant the tumbler is empty
remove the bottle and turn it right
side up, thus keeping it full of water.
The tubes should fit the holes tightly.

Just at this time of the year, city
councils over the state are granting
saloon licenses for the coming twelve
months. In view of the widespread
movement against the liquor traffic,
there seems to be an inclination among
the liquor dealers themselves-espec-
tally those of the better classic have
wedding out of the Objectionable
characters in the business. Of course,
this is delicate matter for the saloon
keeper who is trying to conduct his
business in a legitimate manner-he
does not want to appear to be knock
ing" his competitor, and, along with
the rest of us, he has to depend on the
aldermen, whom we have elected to
attend to this matter for us, to do the
fair thing by everybody and act for the
best interests of the city.
Here in Ladysmith, it is admitted by
all the saloon keepers that there are

have got to overstep the bounds of the
law if they make both ends meet land
some fail at that. The law prescribes
that in order to obtain license a man
must be of good character, and yet year
after year licenses have been granted
Unfortunately, some of them to men
who are morally and financially irres-
ponsible and whose places of business
have become notorious for gambling,
robbery or selling to minors and drunk
ards. Convictions on these charges
have not deferred the council from
renewing the licenses of such law
breakers. With the competition of
such derelicts in the business, even the
best of saloon-keepers is tempted every
day to break over the rules-and then
the prohibition cranks" have good
cause to decry the business as a whole
The whole responsibility rests with
the men who grant the licenses and
make the ordinances governing the
business. In their wish to be friendly
with the saloon-keepers as a whole,
they are really doing the better class
an injustice.
