derwood and Foss and the release of

souri,, nobly and without resentment,
went down, colors flying, with its ia

struggle with few parallels, the Jer-
sey executive became the standard
bearer of a great democracy, pledged
TO progress and tariff reform.
That the party succeeded in nam
ing a man of the stamp and standard
of Wilson after such a fight is a
source of congratulation and graf

HIGH HONOR FOR HURST.

Rock Islands distinguished citizen,
Hon. E. W. Hurst received a high COM
pliment in the democratic national
convention at Baltimore last night,
when Illinois presented his name as an
available candidate for the vice presi-
dental nomination. The honor was
one that was not only worthily be-
slowed, but the convention could not
have made a wiser choice viewed from
every logical standpoint The nomi-
nation seemed TO have been prearranged
otherwise, however, and the governor
Of Indiana won. Mr.. Hurst would
have fit the bill in many ways. Per
sCnally as well as politically he is the
ideal and while coming from a state
that is quite as important 70 democT attic
success as Indiana. he stands high
with every element and influence with
in his party and is generally popular
throughout all sections outside his
own party.
II is conceded generally in the state
that had he consented to be the dem
Ccratic candidate for governor four
years ago, he would have been in the
executive chair today, and again this
year had he permitted the use OF his
name IN the democratic primaries, he
would have stood a good show OF
winning the nomination.
For the place as Wilson's running
mate on the national ticket he pos.
scsses the best possible qualifications
ability, personal worth, and in every
| sense his availability is unquestioued
When the news came last night in
J The Argus bulletin service that Mr.
HuTst's name had been presented by
Hon Samuel Alschuler, it spread rapid
. ~ MI over the city and was received
everywhere with enthusiasm and Gag,
er inquiries have been made as to the

ODD OLD CHoCTAW LAWS.
One Made the Selling of Their Land a
Capital Crime.

Ono Made the Selling of Their Land
Capital Crime.
In an old set OF laws OF the Choctaw
Nation there is a clause which relates
to the killing of witches. For witch
crafe the penalty was death, and for
alleging oneself 10 be a witch or for
saying that any other person was one
was punishable by sixty lashes on the
bare back.
Another declared that no doctor could
take money or any OF the belongings
of a patient he treated if the patient
died. If the patient were raised up
from a sickbed the doctor could ac-
Cept what was offered TO him. and If
nothing was offered then he could take
in goods what was his just compensa-
ton.
In 1884 the ChOctaw council passed
an act which made a person who bar
gained TO sell any of the ChOctaw land
a traitor and punishable by death.
Any white man who encouraged such
action was deported. An Indian who
sold or disposed of land either to indi'
viduals or to the United StGtes in toto
should be considered Il traitor and shot
on conviction. This was just preceding
the beginning of the work OF the
Dawes commission.

The Norwegian immigrant was

was a bright girl. she became a great

Vast sums OF money are spent on
machinery improvement, and the
greediest OF employers know how nee
essary it is for machinery to rest for
certain periods But an employe
needn't rest. There are always plenty
of people looking for jobs.
It is recognized that the useful ami
mails must have proper care and food
if they are to continue their usefulness
10 their owners. On the farms the
animals get all the food sleep and rest
they need But the hired men and the
farmers womenfolk are worked TO the
limit Of endurance, without a thought
concerning the conservation Of their
usefulness. Losing a COW would be a
serious matter in the farmers estima-
ton. But he can get another wife or
another hired man without spending
any considerable lump sum of money
for either.
Men are worked in the mills until
they drop, worn out. body and soul,
when they're less than 40 years old
an sGe when their employers still con-
slider themselves young men. There
are always more ignorant immigrants
TO be had.
Women and girls are worked out in
factories and sweatshops, becoming

OBSERVATIONS

they die? Who cares if health and
strength fail while they are still young
in years? There are always plenty
more willing to do the work.
There are men and women who. when
they enter their various occupations,
are bright, quick, full of ideas. assets
TO their employers But does the en-
ployer think of conserving this good
material for any lengthy period? Does
he so arrange the work and time of his
employees that they may be as valuable
to him in their mature years as they
are in their youth?
Not as a rule. The average idea is
to get all that's possible out Of an en-
ploye in as short a time as possible:
then fire him for a fresh one.
The conservation of forests. of wa

other.
Something must be done so that the
comfort and profit Of the few shall not
be earned by the suffering and the
shutting out Of the many.
There is something wrong in an in
dustrial system where the brain or
body or energies Of an employee are
worn out at ia thing so ordinary
that now We speak of ii as a matter
of course.
But. we are beginning TO look askance
at the employer who appropriates to
himself the best of a man until he has
arrived at a premature uselessness,
and then casts him aside as a worth
less bit of fiotsam. We want TO know
what's the matter with the employer
because he has received so much and
the other so little. We want to know
why the one is hale and hearty and
still in the ring, while the other is
down and out. We want TO know if
the bout has been a fair and square
one; we have a suspicion there's been
foul somewhere.
