Opposition to- Poindexter.

The following, from the Spokane
Spokesman Review, whose republic
canism will bear comparison with
the Aberdeen World, is commended
to the careful reading of the latter:
Senator Wesley l.. Jones opposes
Poindexter to the senate because he
believes the new Senator should be
resident of western Washington.
Living in the south central part of
the state blu. east of the Cascades
he thinks himself representative
of eastern Washington in the sem
ate. If we are to judge from the
actions of many other states the de-
sire for sectional representation in
the senate is in itself scarcely a val
i'd reason for not supporting Mr..
Poindexter.
Senators from 20 states reside in
the same or adjoining sections Of
their respective states. In six states
the two senators from each state re-
side in the same city. The senators
from Florida, Arkansas and COlOra-
do all hail from the capital cities
of their respective states, while Port
land is the home of Bourne and
Chamberlain, Reno of Newlands and
Nixon, New York City of Depew and
Root. Both of Louisiana's senators
reside in coast cities and Grand Rap
ids and Kalamazoo, two cities in
southeastern Michigan, are the
homes of Michigan solons.
"MOntanas senator's both reside
near the Idaho line and New Hamp-
shire has disregarded sectional rep
resentation for years by choosing
two men from Concord and Manches-
ter, cities only few miles apart.
Ohio has Dick from Akron and only
last year chose Burton from, Cleve-
land, a city only a few miles farther
north, in preference to man from
the southern part of the state. Tex
as, Alabama, Georgia, Virginia and
even Iowa, have chosen their sena-
tors in defiance of the principle of
sectional representation, believing
that a statesman who is worthy of
the position as senator is big enough
to represent the interests of the
whole state. In these states the men
and the principles for which they
stood seem to have been of greater
Importance than any consideration
of sectional representation.
On not all of these states are the
needs of the different parts SO di-
verse as is the case with Washing
ton, but the differences exist to a
greater or less degree in all Of them.
Senator Jones so far has made
an excellent record. If he believes
that the west side of the state will
insist upon electing a senator four
years hence there is no reason why
he can not move to one of the Coast
cities and become the candidate for
western Washington.
'"The election of Mr.. Poindexter
to the senate will in no way preju-
dice the people of the state against
the reelection of Senator Jones'"

NEW DISTRICTS TO BE
MADE IN FLOYD SPRINGS

ROME, Ga. Feb 10.-The biggest mi
litia district in the state of Georgia is
to be cut up into three smaller ones.
This was the Floyd Springs district in
Floyd county. To get the benefit of the
stock law, adjoining territory had been
annexed to that district until it was So
miles long. and contained nearly 5000
voters.
Some of these had to go many miles
to vote and register. and for their con-
venience the redistricting will be done.
Not only this, but other district bound
airy lines will be changed and made to
conform to reasonable requirements.

1t has learned thaC man is fond of
honey, and will work all dry trying to
persuade the hunter to follow it. How
1t has acquired the idea of the rela-
ton between man and honey is a most
remarkable thing, but that it has done
so is agreed by all who know its hab-
its. 1t will guide a hunter to a bek
tree as unerringly as a pointer dog
will locate a covey of cartridges. The
secretary bird is another interesting
member of Africas reathered tribe. Il
has a crest of feathers, which, when
the bird is at attention, resemble an
old-fashioned quill pen placed behind
the ear OF a clerk. Hence ITS name.
1t is a snake eater and an adept In
the art of snake catching. 1t kills the
snakes il eats by carrying them high
into the air and dropping them on hard
ground.
Weaver birds build their nests togeth-
err. there being as many as hundred
families under common cover. An
other interesting species represented in
the collection is the little whydah bird.
This bird and the wart hog seem to
have aroused Colonel Roosevelt's sense
of the grotesque more than anything
else he saw in East Africa. The wart
hog always gets the BOBBY prize at At
rican beauty shows, and the whydah is
cumbersome because it has more tail
than it can handle in windy weather.
1t is said to be the champion bird
dancer 1t goes into the grass, cuts
out a neat little circle, spreads out tho
fallen blades as a carpet, and begins
to dance.
The bird specimens are all stuffed
with cotton and dried. When Major
Mearrs comes home they will be plac-
ed in dampened sand or sawdust and
kept there until the skins become pill
able again. Then the work of mounting
will begin. Only the notable specimens
will be mounted for exhibition pur-
poses. There are more than 100000
birds in the Smithsonian collection. and
yet the first shipments from the
Roosevelt expedition have brought
about IS species that were not here
torore represented. During so years
the Smithsonian never received an
African crowned crane. Since the one
killed by the Roosevelt expedition ar
rived, another friend of the institution
has sent one in.
The value of the Roosevelt-Smthson-
ion expedition to science is said tic
be very great. The thoroughness or
it's work, in a place where species ar"
most numerous, gives opportunity for
geological and pathological studies
heretofore impossible. With the $50
large mammals, 1873 small mammals,
2,7s4 birds, 1900 reptiles and batra-
chians, and ESQ fish collected. the Brit
lsh East African territory has been
covered thoroughly. The reports from
Uganda have not yet come in. 1t is
ties that the example of Colonel Roose-
welt may stimulate others to add to
its collections. In England nearly
everything is sent to the British mu-
scum. Ir America every big city gets
specimens, hence there has been no
one collection as complete as that or
the British museum. 1t is now intend
ed to embark seriously upon the work
of making the Smithsonian apd the
National museum collection the most
comprehensive in the new world
