CONVICT TLKEN
TO THE ASYLUM

jaime Bradford, an inmate of the
state Prison where he had been sent
from. Esmeralda County on bur-
glary charge to serve a term of
nine years, was last evening taken
to the Insane Asylum at Reno by
Captain Muller. Bradford had
served nearly all of his term having
less than nine months to remain.
He is affected with an, extreme case
of melancholia and it is believed
that he will not live long.
1t will be remembered that a
few months ago this man had fall
at the prison landing upon his
coccyx bone. Insanity at Sonce
showed itself and after a treatment
OF sometime at the prison he was
examined and ordered to be taken
to the asylum. While the atten-
dants were preparing him for the
trip, he was allowed to slip on the
floor. landing again upon his coccyx
bone. He Immediately regained
his sense and the trip to Reno was
postponed and it was thought that
he had entirely recovered. Later
however the same old complaint
came upon him and he has been
growing gradually worse until now
he is in a serious condition. 1t is
possible however that treatment
will cure him of his malady and he
will again be brought to the prison
here to serve out his term.-Carson

IASURGIEG III UNEXPECTED PARTS

In the most unexpected places in
surgency is turning up and turning
up in most unexpected strength.
In Maine a movement closely allied
with insurgent movement Of the
West has already had made astonish-
ing head way against Senator Eu-
gene Hale.
?, In the direction of party affairs
in his home state this son-in-law of
Zach Chandler has adopted many of
the Chandler methods. But things
that were tolerated a generation
ago are obnoxious to those of this
generation, and in all the thirty
years Of his service in the senate
things have never looked as threat
ening for Mr.. Hale as they do this
year.
Judge Friedrich A. Powers is the
candidate against him, and it is de-
clared that ii the direct nomination
prevailed in Maine he would easily
win the election. And his prospects
before the legislature is by no
means unfavorable. Senator Hale
has strong arm hold on the party
as whole, but it happens that the
counties in which he is strongest
have lately been sending Democrats
to the Legislature quite regularly,
whereas most of the Powers coun-
ties send republicans. If this col
league of Mr.. Aldrich, the man who
ranks second to him in the party of
the Rhode Islanders and standpat-
ters, escapes defeat, he will at last
have gathered heightened respect
for the strength of insurgency.
And another place where insur-
gency is showing up strong is none
other than the district of John
Dallzell, original standpatter, who
is so intimately identified with an
other phase of republican policies
that if Cannonism did not bear that
name it would be called Dalzellism.
The graft scandal in Pittsburg has
unsettled everything in politics and
there is a vociferous demand for a
change in congress as well as else
where. Mr.. ;Dalzell is described
as seriously alarmed, for.the first
time in twenty-five years, and
hastily left Washington Saturday
for Pittsburg to look after his
political interests.
In discussing Beveridge, Cover
nor Marshall of Indiana in an inter-
view in the New York Times esti-
mates that mot more than 40 per
cent Of the republicans of that state
are insurgents" while 60 per cent are
standpatters and not especially in
terested in Beveridge. Forty per
cent! How much would the most
enthusiastic insurgent want? If
there are 20 per cent it will mean
a Democratic Indiana delegation in
the next congress. Republic.

last preceding election the Democrats
had carried the district by small ma
jority, but 1t was generally conceded
TO be doubtful. In the campaign pre-.
ceding the late special election the
Republicans made extraordinary eff
forts, President Taft himself taking
part to the extent of sending one OF
his cabinet ministers to assist the
candidate of his party. But in spite
of these tremendous efforts of their op-
ponents, the Democrats elected their
candidate by an increased majority.
Yesterday the whole country was
startled by the announcement that in
the heart of rock-ribbed Massachusetts,
the stronghold of Republicanism, the
Democrats had elected congressman
| by a substantial majority. Nobody
had dreamed of such thing and the
I result Is universally accepted as an
evidence that the people of the whole
country, the East as well as the West
and South, will not stand for whole
sale betrayal of party pledges.

ton a grand opportunity for the Demo

when the frontiers of our state are

the way of planning an advertising
campaign, in securing a compilation
of our resources, and in formulating
a program of state development.

tied knowledge of Vermont, and some
of the things it thinks it knows about
the state are neither complimentary
nor true. IT ought to be possible to
issue handbook containing some of
