GLOWING TRIBUTE I.
TO JAMES MANHATTAN
Candidate for Republican Nomin-
alton for Congressman-At-Large
Has Fine Record. sss< 4
BY A FRIEND.

James Manahan deserves the con-
sideration of every voter, and the
careful consideration Of the man and
his record will bring him the votes
he deserves, In his candidacy for
congressman-at-large from Minnesota.
Mr.. Manahan is one of those men
In whom the public sees merely "a
vigorous, enthusiastic fighter for new
er and = better things: A personal
knowledge of the man shows that his
great :vigor and enthusiasm in fighting
for the principles he advocates, are
equaled by the scholarly care with
which he considers questions before
advocating them: = =. ,.F@::. >
His record has proved that when he
unites his Judgment, AS to what should
be done, with his determination and
vigor in getting 1T done, he : obtains
results His: career. as D. lawyer work
ing largely for the benefit Of the
public has met with #as great success
as that of any other man who has: an
listed in that work. i. .:.. . :
The things that he has. accom-
pished in litigation against the rail-
road companies. the express COM
companies and the Pullman; company,
should be known by everyone, not
alone by lawyers and students; of. eco
nomic: questions. Such results should
only be: accomplished by: a man with
both: the best of Judgment and great
energy. :: {: -: ~
All .>the characteristics Of the man
should be considered in judging his
qualifications, and his great force and
energy should be regarded, not as
things which interefer with his care
full working out Of questions. but as
things which enable him. to- carry out
the things upon which he has made
up his mind.
1t Is not often that we find judy
ment and enthusiastic determination
to do things combined in one man,
and when they are 50 combined and
that mans inclinations lead him to
work for the good Of others the OPP
portunity should not be lost of profit
ing by his willingness to work.
With Mr.. Manahan ambition simply
means desire to get to a place where
he can do more good. This is the
statement Of every one who knows
him outside Of the field of his pub
lie activities.

CROWDS WILL THROHG
 ID THE STATE FAIR
In Every Way It Is Going to Be
 Bigger Than Was Expected

The fair commission has secured good rates from the railroads for the fair. Generally there will be a one rate round trip from all points in the state and a $2g.40 rate has been ecured from Los Angeles and re- turn. Globe was offered $10 rate if d passenger list of 120 could be made up there The Globe people have done much better than that. They have already secured 200 and expect that more than twice that many will come to the fair from that point.
 The chamber of commerce of Los Angeles will come by special train and it is thought that the San Diego chamber will also be here in body.
 The only difficulty that is now confronting the commission is the scarcity of stalls for the horses which have been entered. It was thought that ample accommodations had been provided but now, q month before the opening of the fair, more than half of them are filled
 A meeting of the commission will be held tomorrow and if the business before that body can be transacted

MADE CERTAIN
 OF HIS DEATH.
c. E. Scanlin, a Hopeless Invalid Without Money, Committed Suicide by Shooting and Poison; Wife and Baby Waiting

When C. E. Scanlin decided yes tcrday to commit suicide he deter mined that there should be no fluke He drank a quantity of carbOlic acid eBd then shot himself through the bGdy. The shot entered the right side instead of the less impregnable left. and it might not have been fatal but the poison had done the work for when Dr. Plath who was summoned arrived the man, though. living was at the verge of death and passed away in a few moments
 The suicide took place in d small tut on Fifteenth street, d short dis tance north of Washington a little after noon yesterday. Coroner John stone was sent for and he impaneled a jury which viewed the body. The mouth and chin were horribly burned by the acid.
 The suicide had left no note ex- liaIning his motive but his emaciate,! condition disclosed the motive The man was evidently in the last stage or consumption.
 How long he had been in the city ro one knew but he must have been ;i recent arrival for among his er- fleets were found several letters from his wife one as late as the date of August addressed to him at Noun tain Home, Idaho. There were other letters from his wife received here and they were pitiful. His wife who lives at Dallas, Texas spoke hope fully of the future and of their joy when she and their little boV would shortly be with him in Phoenix where they would be able to set up a happy home,
 The man was pennlless and had applied to the Associated Charities which had just given him an order for four meals.
 The carbolic acid from which he had forever slaked his thirst had been bought by him at Mountain Home so that he had evidently con- templated this act for some time. All that is known of Scanln was gained from papers showing his dis charge from the army in which he ! had served two enlistments. He had first enlisted at Jefferson Barracks, St. Louis and after serving l three years was dismissed He en- l listed again in 1904 and was dis l charged in 1909 He was then twenty | eight years of age so that at the time of his death he was thirty one. | It was stated under the head of remarks" in the discharge papers | that his health was then good. His conduct was also formally praised.

A common three horse evener

Sometimes 1t is necessary in working
young animals, or light horses, to give
them an advantage. This can be done
by increasing the length of the lever
arm. There Is no set rule for deter
mining the amount of advantage to be
given I'm the case OF small horses. The
most satisfactory way is to use num-
Der of holes and simply shift the clevis
until the small horse Is able to carry
the load the entire day without be-
coming more fatigued than the other
horses. Some claim that the amount Of
lever arm or advantage given the small
horse should he in proportion to the
weight, but this is not always satisfac-
tory because it is not taking into con-
sideration the physical condition Of
the horses, which Is very important
factor. However, to begin with, this
method of adjustment does very well;
other changes can be made as occasion
requires.

years, last crop being plowed under;
then potatoes, and the rotation re-

In Montana the best rotation for

gives good satisfaction: First year,
sugar beets; second year, peas and oats
