Senator Young. Mistake.

Clinton Herald: Generally speaking.
we have held in high regard the
opinions of Senator Young. But when
he comes out in favor of direct cleo
ton Of United States senators we are
inclined to think that he has made a
mistake. We are rather inclined to
the opinion expressed in the senate by
Senator Lodge, who declares that such
procedure would be violation of
the intent Of the trainers of the con.
stitution.

Rob Hamilton in a Runaway.

Our old friend, Rob Hamilton,
was the victim Of a serious acci-
dent last Monday. He hitched
up his fine mule team, which had
been idle for some time, TO his
moving machine, preparatory to
cutting his clover. When he
started, the rattle Of the ma
chine frightened the animals and
they ran away, throwing Rob of
and badly bruising his arm, side
and leg. Rob Is on crutches yet,
but is lucky at that. DR.. Baker
at first thought that something
serious had happened to Rob,
but we are grati6ed to learn he
was not seriously injured. Neither
the mules nor mower were dam

Tin Have Changed.

When was young l used to
20 down the long potatoe row and
whack the weeds out with q hoe.
Or, early in the summer morn,
when with one old mule, morose,
forlorn, I'd 90 to cultivate the
corn. All through the summer
day I toiled, my raiment reeking
wet and soiled, and / was fried,
and baked and broiled. And
when at night I sought my bed
my feet were like two tons OF
lead, and till next morning / was

changes there, l always go up in

surely feels like Cleopatra as he
reels along on plows with painted
wheels. He drives q large and
handsome team; his implements
are like a dream; his spring seats
are spiked to every beam. He
blithely tills his fertile lands, and
never soils his lily hands, nor in
the mud and gumbo stands. His
pants are creased and show no
dirt; he often wears II parboiled
shirt. And when he goes to
town he makes the journey in q
brace Of shakes; his auto runs 70
beat the snakes. He has a gas
plant Of his own, a bathroom and
q telephone, and often he has
scads TO loan. Thus are the old

Carrie Nation Dead.

Mrs. Carrie Nation, the foe OF
Kansas whisky joints and cigar
etts smokers, died Of paresis at
Leavenworth sanitarium last Sat-
urday. Only q doctor and q
nurse were present at her death,
which was peaceful. The last
FIVE months Of her life was in
marked contrast to her career
from December 1900, when she
became the self appointed execu-
tor Of the prohibition law in
Kansas and with q hatchet OPEN
ed her campaign in q hotel at
Wichita. She was born in Ken
lucky in lS46, her maiden name
was Carrie Moore. Marrying q
worthless drinking man and see
ing an opportunity for notoriety
being turned to good account
financially, is alleged as being the
incentive to her lawless conduct.
Several suits which she had in
stitnted against lecture bureaus
for money she claimed due her,
causing her much worry, is said
by the doctor to have been the
cause Of her death. She accumu-
lated considerable money as q
freak and from the sale Of pinch
beck hatchets for the ornanmen-
tation Of sympathisers. Kansans
generally do not condemn her
