WOOL MARKET
ACTIVE IN WEST

In its decision to reduce the
duty on raw wool from IL cents
to ) cents, and to make a so per
cent reduction of the tariff on
manufactured wooden goods the
democratic ways and means COM
mittee of the democratic house has
shown it's political cowardice and
its lack of courage to make good
on what it promised the people ii
would do, says the Herald-Repub-
lican Its fear of the possible ac-
ton of the eight millions of Amer
leans who are engaged in the wool
en- industry has deferred the demo-
cratic majority from the absolute
destruction of the schedule of the
Payne tariff bill which its spell
binders and newspapers declared
last fall was the GROWING infamy
of the republican administration.
But the damage to the wool in
dustry, while not so great as if
wool had been placed on the free
list, is such that the political self
seekers responsible will get their
punishment in any event.

shoot the animal. Several minor

INDIANS and
POLITICS OF
The SIXTIES

Monday morning, while making
the rounds for news, the reporter
dropped into the Melarkey street
mining Office of w. G. Adamson.
Col. Tom Ewing, the veteran min
ing man, was present, and the
query why he had not discovered a
big mine 80 years ago brought
forth a train of "reminiscences.
When l first came to the coun-
try, mans scalp would not have
been very valuable over on the
mountain, in the vicinity of the
big strike replied the colonel.
''As late as SO l was one of a
party of 20 who chased band
of thieving redskins across the
Humboldt river at this point. A
year or two before the time men
toned a man had come in from
California and established a cattle
ranch in the American canyon
country. In the spring of 1863
band of Indians came along, shot
the cattleman through the thigh
and run off about 500 head of his
cattle.
He at once came over to Union
vile and gave the alarm. We or.
ganized a posse of 20 armed men
took the trail and came up witt
the marauders just as they reached
the river. Many shots were ex
changed, but at long range, ant
no one was hurt. The Indians
who were on foot, finally plunged
into the river, which was swolle1
on account of the spring freshets
and made their escape to the noun
tains. AS they left the cattle, w
did not follow them.

Because Harold Speed was twenty
four years old, and because Miss Ger
trude Rayburn was only nineteen;
because he was rather prim and pre-
else, and she was a sort Of tombcy:
because he was in love with her and
because of several other reasons, he
had come to speak of her as Little

She was saucy and impudent and

mure and deceitful and ingenious.
If she loved him in return she wasn't

his primness and preciseness and the
rebukes he offered.

about her wicked ways she elevated

ciadom have had all sorts of parties planned
with especial reference TO their welLknown pro
pens!ties. The White House furnishes an ant
criterion as TO the revolution in sentiment that
mas taken place. Prior TO the Roosevelt admin
lstraton there had been in many years only a
few periods when there were present in the ex-
ecutive mansion children of age to influence the
social program Indeed the children of the Grant
and Hayes families were about the only young
sters TO liven up the old mansion since the days
of the Civil war.
With the arrival of Theodore Roosevelt accom-
panied by his half dozen strenuous children
however. ume-honored traditions had q shake.
up IN favor of the fads of young hearts and young
heads, and this policy has been pursued during
Che Taft regime. although the present chief mag.
istrate has brood only half as numerous as
that Of his predecessor, noticeable exempl
location OF the revision that has taken place in
the social calendar is found in the prominent
place that young peoples dances have occupied
of late years on the winter entertainment pro
gram at the White House And In summer the

AS They Auction In Japan.

Sealed bids are used in auctioning
property in Japan. There is no shout
ing. The auctioneer announces to the
audience that he has such and such
a piece of property for sale and in
vites bids. Those who wish to bid
write their bids and pames on slips
of paper. The paper is folded and
placed in a box. When the auctioneer
sees no more bids coming he opens
the box and sorts out the bids. The
highest bid takes the property.
1t is like a bond sale. no one knows
what his neighbor bids. If bidder
is anxious to get the property he will
not put in a small offer.
On the contrary he will very likely
bid all the property is worth. For
this reason an owner never puts up
his property for auction unless he
wants to sell it.

according to further program he
expected to find Miss Gertrude sitting
bolt upright in her chair as she waited
his appearance. But she wasn't in a
chair at all. She was sitting on the
floor like girl of ten, and moreover
she was making a rag doll. She
