of Norwich, Benjamin Bentley of l Preston, and Edward Lester of Led 1 yard. AS the notification committee walked up the hall with MT. Gilmour there Was applause which lasted until they reached the platform. The nom inee was introduced to the conven- tion by MT. Boon.
 Accepted In Ringing Speech.
 Mir. Gilmour said that he thanked the delegates most graciously for the honor conferped on him by giving him the nomination. He said that he had served in the legislatures of 1897 and 1899 and always felt that he had done his full duty, as he had never yet had to stand shamefaced before his con- stituents. He worked for the welfare of the town and state which he repre- Sented, for as much as there was in him. He said that in accepting the nomination he would give the people the same steady and courteous service as III the past and the delegates will have no excuse to make when the senate has run it's course. The air is filled with. shouting and threaten | ings, but the party will be victorious on the political battle field if the re- publicans fill their offices with able men. God still sits in the heavens and honest men rule on the earth. It is surprising fact that the republicans are deserting the party: forgetting the past He told of the birth of the re- publican party, and said that it stood ! for free labor against slave labor. Mr. 1 Gillaour also told of the vast exports and great borrowing power of the na- | tion as whole. A great future of good Is ahead of the republican party and the people will not desert or for get it but will act wisely, discreetly and with common sense.
 Taft Safe Guide.
 | One man was elevated by the party l to rule this nation, and now he shows his base ingratude trying to defeat Mr. Taft, by fioundering about in the mire he has made. MT. Gilmour show ed what little entanglement there has been made during the 45 years that his pdrty has ruled. He said that the Spanish war was waged for humanity, and that the nation has been kept free from war by Mir Taft's wisdom. The republican party has acted as pilot captain and crew of this nation, and the compass needle has not wavered for one moment from the true course He praised President Taft and said that if he was elected he would repre- sent all the people of the district There was loud applause at the con- clusion of MT. Gilmour's talk and he was congratulated on his able effort A few remarks were made by Chair man Allen, who said that the country
 would prosper if the people live up t6

CHANGED LOCKS ON
 SUPERIOR COURT DOORS
Measure of Safety to Protect Records
 Sometimes Left There.

NewAocks have recently been placed on the doors of the superior court, the judges room and hallway and other ante-room doors, so that now Clerk Parsons is able to lock up the prem ises and have a pretty good idea of who holds keys besides himself. In the course of time through number of years past so many. keys to some of the doors had been issued that a large number of people had access to the railways and anterooms. As it was frequently desired to close the courtroom over night without remov- ing from 1t exhibits or other records in connection with cases on trial, 1t was thought the number who might gain access to 1t should be decreased by changing the locks so that the old keys would be no use.

Champion Boy Scout Makes
Wonder Mountain Record

Howard Binns at Shelton prob
ably holds the laurels for the
hardest two days hiking for a
16-year-old Boy Scout in the
whole world.
In August last, he went with
his troop to the Olympics In care
of Scout Master Reed, now In Ia
coma. A walk of twenty-six
miles with many side trips was
easily taken in two days. Each
boy carried his own bed and
grub" for two days. More food
for the rest of the eight days
was shipped in by freight team.
The permanent camp was made at
the head of Lake Cushman. The
first day in camp the troop went
up Mt. Elinor to the saddle in
regulation time with no unusual
fatigue.
After the week was spent in
camp and the day had come to
break and begin the trip home,
the smaller lads were allowed to
go to a camp on the shore of
Hoods canal at Potlatch. Howard
and his scout master went back
upon Mt. Ellinor and from the
first peak to be reached by tedi-
GUS route back to the northeast
to the higher peak of the noun
tain. The day was cloudy, and
from point about two thousand
feet up to the summit the climb
ers were banked in with heavy
cloud. 1t was slow climbing, for
no path could be picked out
ahead. 1t was necessary to de-
scend as much as a thousand feet
once and less distances several
times to avoid some impossible
cliff. Once for a brief half-hour
they were above the cloud. The
dome of the sky was inverted and
they stood in a mighty basin. Mt.
Tacoma rested grandly upon the
rim of the basin.
From 10 a. m. to $40 p. m.
they climbed an aggregate of
5000 feet. When at this late
hour the last point of the peak
was sighted very near above in
the clouds hasty retreat was be-
gun. All the matches were spoil
ed by perspiration. The pros
pect of a night upon the mountain
with no fire was not pleasing. A
path with no trail was taken and
