ID THE HONORABLE
 SONS OF REST

oi IuC SOOu Ol the OfOGf Will
 say ynn are,- awase of- tha fact
 for the first time in history of
 our order We have tried our poli-
 tical strength. You see we elect
 ed every officer from governor
 Joe I. Robinson, down to Squire
 6)shares, aud Smith. We cer-
 tdlnly did pit the bud to Dona- ghey and his campaign managers.
 We have doWned the Pope of Rome and the Priesthood and turned everything Religiously, and politically over to to the pro- testants. The way of the trans gressor and third termer is hard. in some of the minor offices. The third termer got there, he was run so hard that he will never be any account any more politically. We are the progressive democrats the original, the same as we had at ancient Athens, and ancient Rome. Solon wrote up the code of laws by which the first demo- cratic party was ever governed, we want the original.
 George Washington served two terms as president of the United States and resigned. That fixed the standard time in the Uuited States for his successors or any other elective office all in excess of two terms is undemocratic, un- less 1t is Jeff Davis. He is a freak of nature. No one can place, no one ever knew where his headquarters were during his different campaigns. He never could be reached by mail, tele. gram, ,.wireless telegraphp or any thing else in Arkansas or Wash iagton D. C..
 l am glad that governor Joe T. Robinson had no platform, that is democratic. The people should make the platform, and then if governor had have had a platform he would have broke the record and would have skin ed governor Donaghey for Gov ernor and lay d 1t over Champ Clark for presidency.
 The aristocoats, nobles and Royalist in all ages objected to the masses or common people as they called us. They never did like to subjugated to the whims of laboring masses in their political aspiration, but we certainly did put the bud to them in this last campaign, they refused to us our iniatiative and referendum we voted two years ago. They ig- nored the referendum all except the legislature and senate they used it. They infatuated anex- tention of time in the legislature and senate and just referred to themselves, and sit there and lascivious donations until they bankrupted in a manner. the state. Then we took the refer endum in charge. Now we are calling them down. When the T. J. bill was passed nothing was said about referring 1t to the people until it was too late and when they saw their political career was gone they laid hold. on you have not voted on that T. ]. bill yet. It's no law till tou say so, it Was too late. The hill billies and rubernecks was com- ing from every nook and corner sealing the destiny of Donaghey :, ., l l. ., nol;t,na1 n d h aco n | [, ooraay When Solon wrote the .code of laws by which the people were governed at Athens. being the original too, he first set the slaves free that had been sold for debts. He divided the peo- into four classes. He made the two principle classes in wealth pay the principle of all taxes. | T ! L I

Is that a possible outcome of the

wise ones who were saying two
weeks ago that the Roosevelt cam.
paign was as dead as hay have an
other guess coming. The colonels
unexpected and sweeping victories
in Illinois, Pennsylvania and Maine
have given his campaign tremendous
impetus. He already has the most
delegates in New England and New
Hampshire and Massachusetts are
pretty sure to give him substantial
majorities The Taft headquarters
are still able to figure how Taft
is sure of the nomination, but il
won't do to lose sight OF the fact
that a militant personality like Roose.
velt's will have great influence with
the unpledged delegate at Chicago.
Particularly If it seems probable that
the colonel will win There are a
great many who dearly love to be on
the winning side and they cross to
that side the minute they consider
the ice safe.

Taft is entitled to denomination AT

Slow Down. Everybody!

The Iroquois theater fire in Chi
cago led to an examination of ev-
cry cross roads hall to see if it was
a fire trap. SO the Titanic disaster
ought to lead, and no doubt will, to
a universal effort to remove the dang
ers of water travel.
The government should see that
there are life boats enough to pro
tect every passenger by water. But
the need for better protection is felt
by many besides those who travel by
our transatlantic palaces.
The boy who has quit other EN-
ployment to become a deck hand
usually has a family of hungry
mouths at home, dependent on his
safety, and loving hearts whose good
cheer depends upon his life He
needs the long arm of firm govern
ment inspection, too.
There were 5000 shipwrecks on the
great lakes in 20 years. Every one
of them meant a tragedy for some
number of human hearts. The bot
tom of these lakes is strewn with the
bones of ships and men. Many Of
these ships disappeared as suddenly
and inexplcably as if the Titanic hac
hit the iceberg in the days before

VIKINGS SANG DOG SONG
knute Nelson Says clark's Ozark
Tune is an Old Swedish Melody

Washington, April Ex-senator
Knute Nelson. who is a Norseman,
besides being a Republican from Min
nesota, declares that Champ Clark's
campaign anthem, "The Houn' Dawg
of the Ozarks," is not a Democratic
tune at all, but vase imitation of an
old Swedish Vikingsong His fathers,
he says, often went to victory with
that tune in their ears. The Sena-
tors version follows:
Naer jag kom till stanens grin
Pojkar sparklar hunden minsy
bet goer de- Stamina ON han her blot
hun,
De moste sluta att sparka honom
rundt.
A literal translation which save for
the meter is almost word for word the
song they sing in the Ozarks, goes
| like this
came to the city's gate,
The boys chased my dog
This they did, though he's only a
hound
They must stop kicking my dog
around.
The song can be traced as far back
as the year 1900, and was probably
old then. The senator refers all re
quests for the singing of the song &c

tn. Economical Cooking Fat

There is both economy and solid salts
faction in cooking with Cottolene. Not
only is it more economical than either
butter or lard-one-third less being re-
onired-but it can be used in fine cakes
and pastry with every bit as good re-
rlts as butter, and for frying it excels
lard or other cooking fats
Unlike lard, Cottolene makes food
wholesome, nourishing, digestible 1t
is made from Cottonseed Oil, the use
Of which Dr. Wiley so strongly has
commended.
Cottolene shortens your food-length-
ems your life, and saves you money at
the same time.
