that he had very little ability. but
nothing succeeds like success, and we
must admit he has strength.
He has some way of getting the
votes. He makes hay while the sun
shines We admit he is likable

with him say he is a dandy. He goes
cut to see people and he makes them
his friends. He has an easy manner
Of meeting people. He comes into the

little while and then goes on his way
He calls on people as If it were q

NO DEMo-iNsuReEnr ALLIANCE.
Democrats Dispieased With Actions
Of insurgents During Campaign.

Des Moines Register and Leader:
Following the announcement of Dan
iel w. Hamilton of Sigourney as the
Democratic candidate fer United
States senator before the legislature,
comes the report from Democratic
sources that progressive Republicans
will not secure any aid whatsoever
from the Democrats this winter.
The occasion for this. so it is said,
is that the Democrats feel peeved to-
ward progressive Republicans be-
cause of their failure to support
Claude Porter for governor in prefer
ence to Governor Carroll, and because
progressive Republicans generally
over the country have done the DINO
cratic cause no good.
In addition to this the Democrats
resent what they term uncalled for
attacks from Senator CumEins and
other progressive leaders. made In
speeches during the campaign just
over.
There will not be any progressive
Republican-Democrat combinations in
the general assembly this winter, as
serted a Democrat, who is supposed
to be On the inside yesterday. If the
Democrats and progressives vote to-
gether on the senatorship it will be
in voting for the Democratic nominee:
The Democra- S are far more likely to
combine with the standpatters than
with the DrogressiyeS In the past the
Democrats have supported progressive
Republican measures and aided pro-
gressiyes in ,neir Lights on the stand
patters, but in return the progressives
have given the Democrats nothing but
instead have made vicious attacks
upon them. The Democrats owe moth
ing to progressive Republicans

IF.
If you could cast away the pain,
The sorrows, and the tears.
And let the joys alone remain
From all departed years;
Ii you could quite forget the signs,
And recollect the song,
What think you, would you be as wise,
As helpful, or as strong?
Ii You could lay the burden down
That bows your head at whites,
Shun everything that wears frown,
And live life of smiles
Be happy as child again,
AS free from thoughts of care
Would you appear to other men
More noble or more fair?
All. no, man should do his part
And carry all his loaa,
Rejoiced to share with every heart
The roughness of the road
Not given to thinking over much
Of pains and griefs behind
But glad to be in fullest touch
With all his human kind.

The story OF THE Hunchback" is
one of the most beautiful ever writ

role which Miss Stewart will portray,
is one of the most interesting ever
conceived in any age by any author.
Miss Stewart comes heralded as one

opportunities in 1.-THE Hunchback" to
display her dramatic power. She is
supported by a very capable comp
any and the event will no doubt at
