 There are three good men in the ranks of the democratic party who would make good men to fin the posi- ton and Champ Clark is one of them. but in the eyes of one of the followers of the party he Is not the first by any means. still he has the power to get up and say things and get action that pleases the masses. and his well laid plan which clipped Uncle Joe Cannon of his czar like power in the house proves he is a man Of executive ability who can carry out well laid political schemes
 Champ Clark was born in Anderson county Kentucky a little oyer sixty one wears ago.

The daily warning people receive in the press Of the outcome of drink should cause many a fellow 10 hesitate when he commences to go the pace that leads to a drunkard's grave
 Of the majority of murders and sui cides committed We can safely state that ninety per cent of them can be attributed to unbalanced minds ruined by the abuse of liquor
 We do not wish to convey the im- pression that liquor is curse when used in moderation. for even Paul. we believe, said a little wine was good for the stomach sake But one can abuse a good thing, and many do abuse the liquid known as spirits fermenti. Flee tricity Is good even for the system but should one abuse it II win cripple the strongest person who ever walked the face of the globe. Excess in any one thing is liable to produce bad results For this reason we are constantly ad- monished to be moderate in all things.

TREASURER SHIPS.

The treasurer party has located one million of dollars that has been cached beneath the waters of the Pacific and they only have to await the proper apparatus to extract the gold bars then their fortune is made, for then they will sail home with their ship not having to wait until it comes in as most people who have rainbow visions.
 Ever since the discovery of America. or soon after there has been voyages made after sunken or buried treasures and we cannot find any record of the vast millions hidden away beneath the waters being recovered. Even the great bars If gold and diamonds of Captain Kidd captured while he was in com mand of the pirate ship Adventure. have been hunted for high and low. and several fortunes expended in try ing to locate the spot where they were buried
 should the last venture prove a sue cess it will give interest to others who know. or believe they know of riches untold hidden ava yin certain corners of the globe But after all there are far more chances in finding such riches hv trying to locate them in the virgin soil that has in the remote past re- ceived a liberal helping of old Dame Fortunes Shaker, as she was sowing the yellow grains for future harvest by the sons of toll

The eight hour law for women is a progressive one-that is 1t proves the people are not retrogressing. When any woman stands behind counter for eight hours on her feet most of the time. it is a good honest days work in any mans country and should be so considered.
 True the department stores will try and have the law declared unconsti- tutional but they never will, the state will always be able to regulate what shall constitute a days work. Congress las passed just such laws to govern the people employed within the district of Columbia, and they have stood the test and in the end the department store managers will have to admit the fact that the law is a good one and to govern their acts accordingly.

When the navy commences to invest in flying machines we can take it for granted there must be some value to them and they have come to stay.
 With wireless telegraphy and flying ships the captain can accomplish won ders in warfare, for to date it is out of the question to do much damage to an airship with guns.

 Washington, Jan. 30-Holding forth in the center aisle with forceful ges- ture and stentorian tones, '.Jeff'' Davis Dem.. Ark.) impressed upon the Sen ate, today, his views on the election of Senators by the people. He gave a spectacular characterization of Colonel Roosevelt
 ''Mr. Roosevelt he said, with his great brain and matchless courage place, having been feted and almost idolized by the crowned heads of the old world. returned to his native land and was accorded such a reception as seldom falls to the lot of the re- turning hero and but for h.s undying thirst for dictatorship and his un- bridled ambition to rule, would have gone down in history as one of Amer ica's greatest statesmen.
 ''The people, however, had resented his new nationalisn which was but the reincarnation of the old SD Tit. of Hamiltonism and they gave him such a stunning blow at the polls that he of St. Helena.
 ''Why, sir, he had become more dangerous than Napoleon to the free spirit of the times. In my own State, I saw him ride at the head of the multitude, each clamor.ng almost for the privilege or tOucnlng nlS garment, he was preceded by couriers and out riders bedecked in coats of mail, marching to the blast of the bugle and with shamed face and irfdigna- tion. Out of the anguish of my soul l cried, %, tempora! O. mores! Is the spirit of independence fled?

COFFIN WANTED
 FOR FORGERY
 SHORT SIO,0OO Son of Former Fire Chief Thomas Coffin Sought By
 Police Of Country Was Trusted Enlploye of Fisk Rubber O.. in New York Offices Well Known in Bridgeport.

Issuance of a general alarm for the arrest for forgery of Robert Coffin. son of former Chief William H. Cof- has led to the disclosure that Coffin is wanted by the authorities in New York city for defalcations from the Fisk Rubber Co. of nearly s10,0c0.
 Coffin is we'll known in Bridgeport. but since his alleged crime. on Nov. 2s. he has not been seen here. Vigil ant watch has been maintained in this city, in the hope that he would return to the associates and haunts of his High School days. His failure to do so has led the New York police to send an alarm throughout the country for his apprehension.
 Coffin was cashier of the Fisk Rub- Der Go at the general offices in ther. who preceded Chief Mooney at the head of the local fire department, was also in the employ of the com pany. as was another son of the erst- while fire fighter.
 Coffin held one of the most resoon- sib,e positions in the New York offices of the big concern. whose principal business is automobile tires. He was a frequent visitor to Bridgeport, though his father removed from SllOFlIy dI ter tlIS ming of the first term of Denis Null vihill as Mayor The family lived at 67 Cottage street.
 Chief Coffin became head of the fire department under the administration of Thomas F. Taylor as Mayor. He was head of the volunteer fire de- partment of the Warner Bros. Co.,. and evinced such lively interest in mat ters Of fire figh ting that he was con- sidered equipped for the responsibili ties of the head of the department.
 Bob" Coffin was a student in the B. H. s. when his father left the city. He entered the employ of the Fisk Rubber Co and forged rapidly ahead. His aptitude at figures won ready recognition. He was advanced to the post of cashier at a substantial sal ary.
 Investigation of young Coffin's hab- it's since the crime. however, has led to the discovery that he led a lively pace for a group of sporty associates. That he was head over heels in debt. and needed money badly to avoid dis grace is believed to be the condition that confronted him when he was led to convert the funds of the company to his own use.
 At the offices of the concern in New York city it was stated today that young Coffin's defalcations would not the day of his alleged crime. Nov 2S, and nothing has been heard from him since. Of the elder Coffin. the off cials of the company speak in the highest terms of praise. He. however, has since auit the company to engage in private business enterprise, his other son accompanying him.
