Likes Primary Best.

The primary is the most practical
plan of giving every voter an oppor-
tunity of expressing his choice of a
candidate for an office. Conventions
are always controlled by a few poll
ticians, especially county mass con-
ventions.-Owensboro Inquirer.

OUR HEBREW CITIZENS

1t is said that the total number
of Jews in the United States is now
not less than $1,000, 900 and may
reach a total of 10000, 900. There
are about 100000 Jews in New
York city, 100000 in Chicago, and
100000 in Philadelphia. Several
other American cites contain from
10000 to $4,000 Jews. Through
out the south in the largest towns
the Jews are coming to exercise no
mean influence as factors in the
business world, and the positions of
influence occupied by many of the
people gives the race a power far
beyond what might be indicated by
its numbers. 1t is said that there
are about 5000 Jewish lawyers and
1000 Jewish physicians in New
York city. Jews own some of the
greatest daily papers in the coun-
try, such as the Philadelphia Public
Leader, the New York Times,
World and Press, the st. Louis
Post Dispatch, and the Chattanooga
Times.

The American Vocabulary.

The Americans of the lowest intel
lectual class probably use more words
to express their ideas than the similar
class of any other people; but this
prodigaiity of words is partially bal
anced by the parsimony of words in
some higher regions, in which a few
phrases of current slang are made to
do the whole duty Of exchange of
ideas: If that can be called exchange

MISS MORGANS EXPERIENCE

Miss Morgan has quite an expert
ence with practical politics in her
visit to Denver and is now speeding
homeward a sadder but wiser
young lady. The women of Den
yer captured her meeting and took
occasion to attack such special
privileges as her father, Rookie
Teller and the Guggenheims repre-
sent. Miss Morgan couldn't stand
it and refused to speak. The Incl
dent illustrated the difference be-
tween the political thought of the
woman of the West and the play
attitude of Eastern women who
take up suffrage as a means of
occupying their time. To the Den
yer women their message of democ-
racy was far more important than
her message for suffrage and they
took occasion to make her hear
it. The spirit of broad democracy
is sweeping in the West and it is
because it is vital life principle
with us. rather than a pastime or
a means to financial gain, that the
radical West is slowly but surely
undermining the Morganheims and
the political party upon which their
oligarchy is founded. Baker City

DISTRICT COURT

The defense is nearing the end of
its case in the Florence o. Hay
murder trial. The defendant was
placed on the stand Monday after
noon and told of her relations with
the man she killed.
This forenoon DR.. S. G. Gibson
Superintendent of the insane
asylum at Reno, was called to the
witness stand to testify to the in
sanity of the mother of the de-
PENDANT while she was an inmate of
the asylum. On cross examination,
the district attorney called for the
doctors opinion as an expert on
insanity and he rebelled as he had not
been subpoenaed as an expert and
had not studied up on insanity in
general. He finally said that he
would not answer the questions I'M
less he was paid an experts fee as
he was here on his own expense.
Being assured by the court that he
need not answer if he did not want
to, the doctor finally at the solicita-
ton of the district attorney con-
sented to answer a few questions
touching insanity in general.
He was then excused and the de-
PENDANT took the stand and con-
tinued the story begun yesterday of
her relation with Carroll. The
story she told drained the very
dregs of depravity. 1t was such
a story as made every decent man
in the courtroom ashamed of his
sex. She was led along by Judge
King up to the night she fired the
fatal shot. When she reached that
point, all she remembered was that
she saw the dead body of her victim
lying on the floor in large room.
She did not remember firing the
shot and did not come to herself
until the next morning when she
awoke in her cell. The pistol, she
swore she had purchased to kill
herself with if Carroll did not give
her, at least, part of the money she
claimed he had that belonged to
her. She stated the amount be-
tween So, 900 and $4,000.
At the afternoon session, the de-
PENDANT continued her story. At
the conclusion of the direct exami-
nation, the district attorney
began her cross examination. The
evidence in the case will probably
close tomorrow afternoon.
