dominated by Republican interests.
 ''Withfn the past few campaigns much has been said of the Corrupt Practices act. The goods were ap- parently in that act, but the teeth were pulled out Tricky Republicans had baffled their colleagues with the wording of the act. When the chance was offered to bring about a possible arrest under the act, it was found that the prosecuting attorneys were helpless in the situation Take the Public Utilities bill and the Work bills the Republican party now say they favor. Why have they not fav- ored it in the past? They had the chance to make good, but they did not. Only in the last legislature such bills were offered by the Demqcratic the house, they were slaughtered by the Republican majority, just as they will slaughter them again, if they succeed in obtaining a majority.
 Look over the makeup of the joke Railroad Commission What have they done in the interest of the people? Absolutely nothing but of irl- terest to the railroad. What repre- sentation did the minority have on that commission? Then when the handwriting was seen on the wall, the governor appoints a minority repre-
 
 after such a record.
 'The tariff is undlsputedly the one real cause of the present high cost of living. When the Dingley tariff was in operation, Republicans all over the country rebelled. The hue and cry went up fora better tariff. President Taft asked for it, demanded it. Con- gress got together and then it was pointed out that the Republican Ma tiona1 platform had made no provis- ion for the reduction of the tariff. The result was that the tariff was not loNered but was boosted, the boost being found only through the out to me single instance wherein a cause in favor of the laboring class has ever met with the approval of a Republican body. Now they ask you for their support Do not allow them to lead you astray.
 Attorney William W. Bent, who was the next speaker, as Town chairman of the Democratic party asked that the entire Democratic ticket be elect ed on Tuesday with a rousing ma jority. "I look to the voters of the Sixth, Seventh and Eighth to do their part iii that majority. Do as well as they did last year, and there will be no cause for complaint The Repub- lican party has from time to time stated that we are evading state is- sues and dwelling more on National topics. Ehat is not so, the Republi- can party are the ones who are evad- ing the National causes. They are afraid to discuss the tariff. National issues are very important factor in this campaign as we are elect1ng con- gressmen to go to Washington, and the legislature who are to elect the senators.

c. w. Mckay, W. H. Askew, Wade Ketchens and Sam Gray son, of Magnolia, were in the city this morning, as a commit tee from their city to Prescott to interest our people in the exten- sion of the Louisiana and North western railroad to Prescott, This road now extends for 125 miles south of Magnolia, and further extension of 35 miles is being made, which, with the forty miles from Magnolia to Prescott will give us a road 200 miles long.

 This road will open up some of the best portions of Nevada county, and will give us a south ern outlet.

SENT TO REFORM SCHOOL
 FOR STEALING CHICKENS
Irving BottomIy Sentenced to Meriden UntiI 21, While William cudeahn Gets $5 and Costs.

Saturday morning in the continued case against Irving Bottomly and William .Gudeahn of Greeneville, charged with stealing chickens, a ped 1ler testified that the boys had of fered to sell him chickens. This com pieted the evidence and Judge Brown sentenced the Bottomly boy to the state reform school until he is 21 years of age and fined the Gudeahn boy $5 and costs. amounting to $10.03.
 The judge made a long statement regarding the case, speaking against the influence the moving picture shows have on children. many of whom are tempted to steal or beg to get the money to go, and warned parents that children. and especially girls, should not be allowed to go there unaccom- panied. He concluded by saying:
 T will say this, that I don't now remember an exception of any minor being presented before me on any charge of a serious nature who was not a regular attendant of these cheap shows. We have statute wisely regulating these shows so to re- duce the danger of loss of life from fire as much as possible. More inn portant is the saving of our precious boys and girls for moral and useful lives.
 Let fathers. mothers pastors and priests and every good citizen consider this question seriously and prevent the possibility of a repetition of the terri bic crimes of Babson and Hill in this city . short time since, the detail of which the public know little.

REV. P. c. WRIGHT
 PREACHED ON HEAVEN.
Grandest Thought Which Ever Game
 Into Human Mind.

At the Central Baptist church on Sunday evening the musical part Of the service was of especial attractiveness for the good sized congregation. as the chorus choir led in the singing of Al exander hymns, there was a well rem dered offertory anthem, O Jesus Thou Art Standing (Speaks), by the church quartette. and a contralto singer from Boston. Miss Edith Castle. was heard in two melodious solo numbers. Her selections were In Thee, O Lord, Do Feed His Flock from Handers Mes siah. In both she was heard with great appreciation, displaying a voice of conspicuous smoothness and pleas ing quality, which she handled with effective enunciation and expression
 The sermon by the pastor, Rev. F. c. Wright, was upon the theme Heaven He put the query as to why 1t is we so seldom talk about heaven, although h heaven is a part of the gospel story. We seem to associate heaven with death yet heaven isn't death and tears, for that life is full of joy and peace and song, it's music not dirges but praises, its garb not black but white. Why have we come to associate heaven with that which fills us with sadness and woe2 As to hell, we have elim- mated that in this age, because we do not like the place.
 Paul and James were better Chris tians in respect to heaven, for they lived with the light of heaven shining over them. What would it mean if the toll and care of this world could be borne constantly in the light of heaven? If the common job can be bathed constantly in the light of heav- en. that would be a better job. a better task, with more of manhood and wom- anhood in it. The souls that have seen heaven have endured to the very limit of their lives and done it gladly. Heaven is the desire of all and the bright hope of many lives. It is true, for I do not believe that a God who is good would torture us with nothing but fancy. Heaven is the grandest thought that ever came into the hu- man mind Jesus said I go to prepare a place for you and he desired us to be with him where he is. Heaven is the .honing place of the soul to which the soul longs to go through the in- stinet placed there by God.
