JAPANESE TIDB|TS

One of the great food delicaies
of Japan is saskimi, a fillet of raw
fish served with soy and condi.
ments. This dish, though highly
recommended by both japanese
and EurOpeal medical authorities,
is pronounced queer Or uncivilized
by those not born to the custom of
eating it.
When these critics are reminded,
however, of their eating live
oysters with gusto it occurs to
them, says the Oriental review,
that thr one is at least more
artistic in appearance than the
other, though both may be equal y
palatable and nutritious.
1t is likely that very few
English people know that the
fisher folk along the Devonshire
coast are accustomed to eat LAYER,
an edible sea weed, and so think il
very odd that the Japanese should
use certain seaweeds' as an article
of diet.
Ferns, burdncks roots lily buds.
lotus roots and bamboo sprouts
are among the japanese vegt-
table not enjoyed by occidental
peoples, while the chrysalis of the
silkworm, rice locusts, the octopus,
whales and sea slugs eaten in some
parts Of China and Japan are sure
to shock their fine sensibilities.
And yet the most civiIize
epicures relish tnails and frogs
legs, which are just as odd in
their way as hose varieties of
animal food me ntioned above.

nest and lime cured er2s are far.

A WHO HORSE TRAP

A wildhorse trap which stock
men in this section are int rested
in has just been invented by G..
Woods, ranch foreman who
worked for a mum her of years on
the Chadwick and Russell ranch
near Humboldt.
The new invention is fashioned
on some what the same ines as a
regular coyote trap, with the
exception of having jaws. it has a
loop attachment that fastens a
rope securely around the leg of
horse when the trap is sprung.
10 the other end of this rope a
weight is attached. which prevents
the trapped animal from running.
MIR. Woods brought up from San
Francisco working model of the
invention, number of orders for
the traps have already been placed
with him.-Lovelock Tribune.

STORY OF TWO
STENOGRAPHERS

Here is story of two Taft
administration stenographcrE
which shows how hard it is to work
for the government these days and
remain honest. F.. M. Kcrby,
stcnographer to the late Secretary
of the Interior Ballinger, exploded
the whole Ballinger defense by
bringing to light the "I.awler
memorandum" Kcrby wrote
this memorandum. and knew, there
fore, that President Taft's
letter cxoneratinr Rallingcr was
ante dated and frame up to clear
the secretary. And because he
revealed information which came
to him in his confidential capacity
as stenographer BaIIingcr called
him unworthy" and DISCHARGED
him.
Now contrast this with the case
OF Miss Carrie NJ. Davis stcrog-

the bureau of chemistry. In his
campaign to Gust DR.. Wiley
Solicitor McCabe locked Miss
Davis in a room and "sweated"
her for there hours because she
refused to divulge confidential in
formation which McCabe thought
he could use against Wiley.
Kerby broke confidence,
because he placed loyalty to the
people above loyalty to Ballinger,
and was discharged. Miss Davis
refused to break confidence,
and for that she was cruelty
chastised by a subordinate in an
administration, the high officials of

CLARK ON TAFT'S VETO

Speaker Clark, in closing the
debate for the passage of the
wool bill over Taft's veto, among
other things said:
1.-The president had a right to
veto this bill if he wanted to do so.
| am not guarreling with him. l
am lamenting his lack of wisdom,
as his personal friend. He has
raised an issue that will rage with
undated furv until the close of
the polls in November. 1912. am
not going to say anything deroga-
tory of this tariff board, but | am
going to say hat think, as |
always do. But any member of
the ways and means committee
knows more about the tariff than
that entire tariff board rolled TO
gsther. | have been preparing
fol the wool bill for the last
twenty years. said Mr.. Clark.
They say that We are playing
politics. Whenever any one stands
up and undertakes to do anything
for the benefit of the great masses
Of people, he is denounced by the
interests. That is demagoguery.
But to stand up and advocate the
cause of the interest is the highest
evidence Of craftsmanship. The
president made speech at
Winona. The only part of that
speech that was any good was that
part Of it iE which he said the
wool schedule was too high and
ought to be reduced. | was so
certain that the president would
sign the bill cutting down the
wool tariff that lost the best hat
that can be made in the United
States on that proposition. took
him at his word. l never did
believe he would veto it until the
last two or three days. We are
not afraid to go to the people on
the issue. We know that we stand
for right and truth and justice.
rne Globc.Democrat said that
would come around to q tariff on
wool, that l had heard the bleat-
ing of 1874, 900 sheep in my district.

not remember. But ! tell you
