AS senators-elect Watson and
Chiffon stated before legally elected,
that hey wanted an investigation
and that they would be willing to
resign if fraud in their election
could be shown, and as they seemed
to control the Democratic portion OF
the Senate in promptly making a
compromise, to be sure to legalize
their election, how is it that they do
not have influence enough to secure
an investigation OF the bribery

TWO EASILY MADE BIRD HOUSES.

1t is a simple matter to induce the
birds to build their nests near our
homes II we but provide suitable shell
tiers. These must be so situated that
the birds will not only have ample
protection from cats and other bird en-
emies, but have the feeling of security,
and of course the houses must be firm
Iy fastened so they will weather the Sc
verest of storms. If you have back
yard. the problem of finding secluded
loo. ions is an easy one, and gar
den near by that will furnish seeds and
insects, and a fresh supply of water for
drink and bath are additional induce
ments which will make your chances
of securing bird tenants almost cer-
tain.
A common box, properly arranged, is
just as much of an attraction to birds
as house on which large amount OF
time has been spent in working out
ornamental roofs, steeples and door
ways, but of course for the sake of APP
pearances, house should be of a neat
design and be carefully built.
The bird ark shown in Fig. 1 is
one of the simplest houses a boy can
make. A starch box, or a box OF
about the same proportions, should be
used for this. Partition off the inside
OF the box into two compartments, as
Shown in Fig. 2, and bore a hole
through each end, near one corner, for
doorways. Then nail the cover boards
to the box. You will notice that the
box is mounted cornerwise upon It's
support; this is done so the ada
cent sides of the box will form pitch
ed roof that will shed water readily.
The caves of the roof are formed by
mailing strips of the length of the roof
boards to their edges, and for the pro-
jections over the ends four strips
should be cut similar to that shown in
Fig. 3, and nailed TO the end edges
of the roof boards.

Time For the Farmers Innings.

One of the most effective speeches
that has been delivered by Governor
Wilson during the campaign was that
at the farmers picnic at Washington
Park, New Jersey. 1t was especially
prepared for the farmers, who the Gov
ernor showed never occupied the center
of the stage in politics, and were little
considered in legislation. The farmers
have demanded no protection. but ev-
erything they buy is protected by
heavy tariff which in most cases goes
into the pockets Of the trusts Instead of
helping to pay the expenses of the
Government. When tariff bills are
considered it is the interests that ask to
be heard. Who ever thought of the
farmers asking to be heard9
1T is time" said Governor Wilson,
"for you to break into your own house
and live there. want you to examine
very critically the tenants who have
been occupying it. 1t is very big
house and very few people have been
living in it."
This good advice. TO the farmers is
applicable to all classes that have re-
ceived little consideration at the hands
of the Republicans. There seems to be
a general desire for house cleaning,
and it will come in November, if every
Democrat does his duty as we are sure
they will do when they have such an
excellent chance to get possession of
the Government, which the Republic
cans have so long mismanaged.
