Key Lost With the Titanic.

New York, Dec. 1.-THE Titanic dis
aster was recalled to mind today by
the opening in this city of a public sale
Of the rare library owned by one OF the
victims Of that tragedy, William C.
Dulles Of Philadelphia and Goshen. N.
Y. Mr.. Dulles was known throughout
America and Europe as collector OF
sporting books and works with colorcd
plates, his collection being one of the
most notable Of its kind in the world.
For the safe keeping of his literary
treasures a special vault of steel was
costructed in the library at his home
at Goshen. To that vault there was
only one key, and Mr.. Dulles carried II
in his pocket when he went down with
the Titanic. To unlock the vault 4
became necessary to employ special
locksmith, who worked several days
before he could open 1t.

TWfEDY LATEST
ENTRY into THE
SENAT0R|ALR RACE
Friends Of Lewiston Man
Announce His Candidacy
and Issue Statement to
Members of Legislature.

Another name has been added to the
list of senatorial aspirants in that of
Ben f. Tweedy of Lewiston, and by
casting his hat into the ring Mr.. Tweedy
launches the candidacy of the second
''favorite SON. from Nez Perez county
as well as increases the already long
list of north Idaho statesmen willing to
permit their names to go before the
Twelfth legislature. James G. Babb was
the first Nez Perez candidate.
Friends of Mr. Tweedy, who was an
unsuccessful primary candidate for the
nomination of governor subject to the
will Of the Republican electors, are ac-
tive in his behalf. They have notified
all members elect of the next legisla-
ture they propose to bring Mr.. Tweedy
into the race, and evidently acting
upon his consent, have issued state
ment to solons. This statement is as
follows:
Statement Issued.
1.-THE matter of the selection Of a
successor Of the late Senator Weldon
B. Hepburn is now prominently before
the people Of Idaho. Senator Hepburn
was a resident Of northern Idaho Sem
ator Borah. who will succeed himself,
is a resident Of southern Idaho. Nat
urally, therefore, the man who Is cho-
sen for the unexpired term of Senator
Hepburn should be a resident of north
ern Idaho. Then both north and south
Idaho will be represented in the upper
house of congress.
THE man chosen for this unexpired
term must be capable, honest, and. q
true friend of the people of Idaho. He
must be q man who is not controlled
by the special interests OF the state
He must be progressive that the people
Of Idaho may be properly represented
in the United States senate. He must
be a man whom the people can i'm
plicitly trust and who will be true to
the great common people in that he
will resolutely stand for the square
DEAL OF course. the old political boss
does not measure up to the require
ments. The political boss knows nc
one but the members of his inner circle
/ He pretends to be a friend of the
people when he wants their support
The political situation In Idaho is such
today that a man should be chosen
! for the unexpired term who belongs to
no ring. and who Is not controlled by
the special interests,> man who car
be depended upon to do the right thing
for the people OF Idaho at all times

Tweedy of Lewiston Is the man who
will be the most satisfactory to the
people. He is capable, honest and a

special interests have never controlled
him, and it is his record that when he
stands for policy he stands for 1t in
good faith, and resolutely. The people
can trust him implicitly. He is a gen.

full accord with the same progressive
policies for which Senator Borah
stands. If he should be elected it will

Oh their political domination did they
permit such a reign of debauehery as
dissfaces this State today. BY false
promises and pretences the Democrats
came INTO power. To enforce the law by
regularly elected officers was the war
cry OF their victorious campaign two
years ago. The people took them at
their word only to find those promises
turn to ashes on the lip. The outrageous
procedure OF these officials in State PRINT

1t is very noticeable that all the out
side speakers who are coming to Maine
to help Democracy are Very careful to
announce that they are TO confine them
selves exclusively to national questions.
Not one of them dares to raise his
voice in behalf of the rum shop which is
the real issue in this election The legal
lied saloon Is the goal which the Demo-
cratic leaders are trying to reach, and
in this labor of love they are having the
financial backing of the entire rum in
terests of the country. Like the cuttle-
fish that sends out an inky substance to
discolor the water and thus blind the
sight of their prey, these leaders are i'm
porting host of outside speakers to talk
on extraneous subjects and thus befuddle
and divert the attention of the people
from the real issue. Let there be no
mistake on this point The one over
whelming issue is whether we shall have
an open rumshop planted in every town
or the law be obeyed by men who are
sworn to perform this office. In other
words are the voters of Maine to allow
a few men to become rich through graft
and greed while shouting that "the peo-
pie do not want the law enforced" We
that the sturdy yeomanry of this State
will administer a rebuke to these men
That they will long remember. So eager
are these Democratic leaders 10 avoid
this issue in public that they are even
willing to talk about that other favorite
subieet-economy That is, they are
ready to talk economy when no one asks
them to explain why the Waterville Sem
tineI printed $4,000 ballots for the 1641 So
claists in Mainel Then they are anxious
to change even that subject and talk
about the weather! nN
There are few facts that 1t will be
well for the people of Maine TO remem-
ber Every thug and criminal of high
and low degree will vote for Gov. Plafs-
ted in the coming election. On that point
there need be neither doubt nor argu-
ment. The rank and file of the Demo-
cratic party are honorable men and Just
as anxious to see good government as
are the men of all other parties. Do
they want to line up with that class?
Are they willing that in future years
their children will remember with shame
that the parents once stood shoulder to
shoulder with the men who are anxious
that every Maine town shall become an
other Reno of the East2" No. a thous-
and times no, Decency is not yet dead
among the sturdy Democrats of Maine
and they will resent the present effort of
their leaders to turn this grand common
wealth over TO the brewers of the West
and the distillefs of the South. Repub-
|licans have not always been true to their
solemn oaths. but never in the history

criticises PortIand's Oil Stove Decree

Franklin Journal: Chief Flaherty OF
the Portland fire department has is
sued decree abolishing the use OF
all oil stoves in that city. owing to a
number of fires that have lately occur
red from that source. 1t is doubted
that his decree will be implicitly obey
ed. The truth of the matter is an oil
stove used with intelligence is de-
cidedly useful and harmless household
convenience. 1t is a boon to many q
poor family in these days of high
prices of coal, wood and other fuels
We see no reason why the modern oil
stove, If used with ordinary caution,
should be looked upon as any greater
menace to public safety than the kerr
osene lamp. We hear of fires from
gasoline, crossed electric light wires
and blowing curtains coming in con-
nection with gas Jets; would Mr. Chief
Flaherty therefore abolish gasoline,
electricity and gas? His ukase seems
hardly reasonable and there is likely
to be more notification in the For
est City. ' s'''
