On this proposition Mr.. Costigan
made the only honest speech of the
day. He stated that while he very
much doubted their ability to steal
the republican organization, that
even though 1t could be accomplish
ed they had no moral right to
even attempt It, Mr.. Costigan's
only mistake was raising ques-
lions of morality and honesty In a
meeting of reformers. Those ques-
tions have no place among REFORM
ers as their only business is to
get offices by any hook or crook.
However Mr.. Costigan seems to
be some different from the rest of
his gang as he has stuck to his
guns, organized a new party and
issued call for a convention.
Whatever the final result may be
he is entitled to credit for his
stand in favor of decency in poff-
tics.

No Place for Morality

The meeting Of so-called progress
sives at Colorado Springs last week
showed that even these would-be re

want to get 1t. Each one wants a
different reform and the only thing
they are agreed upon Is that they
want change that will put them

Went AlOss Of Il

The people of the San Luis val
ley have made the discovery that
in 1905 the Roosevelt administra-
ton through Secretary of Interior
Garfield secretly appropriated all
the unused waters of the Rio
Grande river. leaving none for
the hundred of thousands of acres
yet to be reclaimed in that section
of Colorado. This water Is to be
applied on lands in New Mexico
not yet settled or even filed on,
while hundreds of homesteaders in
the Colorado section where the wa
ter of right belongs must do with
out it And yet there are some
people in Colorado who claim to
want another term of the Roose-

Eccentricities Costly,

It's master deserves a place in the very
first rank of men of genius" writes
Lyndon Orr In an article entitled Helm
rich Heine and Red Sefchen," in Mum
sey's Magazine for April
Yet this rank will probably never be
accorded him by the critics, and for
reasons that have nothing to do with
, the canons of true criticism. Most
, Germans cannot forgive him his ad-
mtration for Napoleon and his love of
! France. The French look doubtfully
! upon him because he was German
and wrote in German. Some Christians
dislike him because he was a Jew; and
many Jews reject him because he be-
came Christian.
Moreover, those who can make no
allowances for the strange ecceptrcities
, OF genius and who cannot think of a
mans great works as distinct from his
/ petty frailties, regard too much the fact
that Heine was often loose and sensual,
both in his life and in his minor writ
tngs. Therefore, no one seems Capa-

PLAIN WASHING SODA'S USES
Almost Indispensable to the
Housekeeper.

Uses for common washing soda:
One heaping tables poonful of soda to
a pint of water (boiling) will clean
the ugliest burned pan by letting it
soak a few hours.
In boiling clothes few tablespoon
fuls Of soda in the water will Grad
icate stains from clothes and lend a
snowy whiteness. I have used it on
the finest quality of white goods with
entire satisfaction. 1t will not injure
the material.
To clean a coffee or tea pot made
of granite or lined with porcelain, fill
up the utensil with cold water, set on
stove to boil, and add lump of soda
as large as a hazelnut to the water.
1t cleanses perfectly. In fact, sweet
ness is insured after it's usage in ev-
cry instance.
To clean silver: Put a level ia.
blespoonful in dishpan, add quart OF
cold water, put on fire to boil (put
silver in pan in the cold water), and
wipe Immediately after the water boils
up. Result: Perfectly shined silver
ware without any trouble. These are
hints l learned for myself on the
usages of soda.

SOME HINTS ON SWEEPING
Broom In the Hands Of the Inexperi-
enced Often Does More Harm
Than Good.

1t is not an easy matter to sweep
well, at any rate, if one judges by ex-
perience, for when broom is put In
to the hands of the inexperienced
more harm than good generally results
from the use of it.
Light sweeping and soft broOms are
desirable. Many carpet is prema-
turely worn out~by care!ess sweeping
In sweeping thick piled carpets al
ways brush the way of the pile. By
doing so it may be kept clean for
years; but If the broom is used in a
different way the dust will enter the
carpet and soon destroy it.
If the carpet covers the whole floor
of the room and it is nailed down,
place the chairs and other articles of
furniture which can be easily moved
in the middle of the room, pin up the
curtains and cover the couch with an
old sheet.
Pieces of damp paper may be
sprinkled round the sides of the room,
and then sweep with carpet broom
toward one place.
Take short strokes, being careful
not to raise the broom much. Sweep
the corners and edges with small
whiskbroom.
Put two tablespoonfuls of ammonia
into one gallon of water; wiring a cloth
out of this and wipe the carpet. This
will remove the dust and help to
brighten the carpet.
