satisfactory, the other becomes

The satisfactory engine is
one that is carefully built,
and thoroughly tested.
Thorough testing takes time
and costs money. 1t means
careful adjustment under trying
conditions. 1t is an expensive
process, but a necessary one if
the finished engine is to be

THE INDIANS CELEBRATION
OF THANKSGIVING DAY.

THE interest In Thanksgiving day
and its observance is just as In
tense these days among the reser-
walton Indians as In college towns
where great football games are sched-
uled to occur. Especially is this true
In the southwest, where the Indians
have had an opportunity to become
thoroughly civilized of late years. The
white people find no more enjoyment
In this day Of universal cheer than do
these same dusky redskins.
1t Is day of feasttng, playing and
gaming, with a big dance at night
Such sport comes only once year to
them nowadays, when they have had
to forsake the scalping knife for the
plow. Their wild nature revolted at
the idea of work, and 1t has been with
much difficulty that the government
agents have made farmers out Of the
young braves A day Of rest and
amusement is considered good for their
better nature, and the government au-
thorities are willing that Thanksgiving
day shall become festal time for the
reservation wards Of the nation
The Kiowas and Comanches, who not
long ago were placed on allotments
will have forsaken many Of their wild
plans of amusement this Thanksgiving
owing to the fact that they have been
cut Off the free list Of beef issues.
They have arranged to draw grass
money on Thanksgiving, and goodly
portion of this will be spent In pur-
chasing food for grand feast. AT
night they will take part in green
corn dance, at which thanks Will be Of
fered to the Great Spirit for the good
crops which they have had the last sea
son. The spirit Of thankfulness per
vades the Indian celebrations.
The Osages hold big feast at Paw
huska, their capital city. All mem
bers of the tribe are invited to take
part in the festivities. At the begin
ming and end of each rnonth-and there
are many-the aged missionary who
lives among them Is invited to deliv-
er short prayer, thanking the Great
Spirit for the good things which the
agent has sent them. The food is cook
ed by the squaws. and, while it could
be prepared In a much cleaner and
more tasteful manner, the cooking is
an improvement over that Of a few
years ago With this cheer they give
thanks that "by the goodness of God
they were far from want"-New York

when rain came. 1t came In such

the pilgrim fathers were convinced
that Providence had smiled on the little
band of forlorn men, women and chill
dren who, driven from their own homes,
had been forced to pitch their tents on
the wild and inhospitable shores of a
foreign land
William Bradford In his proclama-
ton had called the day a feast Of
thanksgiving, and the best hunters in
the colony had been securing the adj
1acent woods for Wild turkeys and
other game to supply the wants of the
colonists and their guests. The
kitchens Of the pilgrims were crude
and rough, but the good danes did
their best, and the result was a repast
satisfying and sumptuous enough for
the most exacting The menu con
sisted of roast turkey dressed with
beechnuts, venison pasties such as
the pilgrim mothers knew SO well how
to make, savory meat stews with
dumplings of barley -four, clam chow

roasts of all kinds. broiled fish, salads,
cakes and plum porridge Lastly,
there was a bountiful supply of
oysters, the contribution of Massasoit
and his ninety warriors to the first
Thanksgiving bill Of fare. The great
est dinner of the festival was given on
Saturday, the last day Of the celebra
tion- History chronicles that it was
one Of the loveliest days of the In
dian summer, and SO mild was the
weather that the good pilgrim danes
were able to set their tables in the
open air, and In the primitive forests
in the widest country, in new and
unexplored world, was celebrated the
brightest and most Joyous Thanksgiv

A MANS LIFE.

The world was made when a
man was born
+. He must taste for himself the
forbidden springs;
He can never taks warning from
old fashioned things;
He must fight as boy; he must
drink as a youth;
He must kiss; he must love; he
must swear to the truth
Of the friend of his soul; he must
laugh to scorn
The hint of deceit in woman's
eyes
That are clear as the wells of
paradise.
And so he goes on till the world
grows old,
Till his tongue has grown eau
tious, his heart has grown
cold,
TIL the smile leaves his mouth
and the ring leaves his laugh
And he shirks the bright head
ache you ask him to quaff-
He grows formal with men and
with women polite
And distrustful of both when
they're out Of his sight;
Then he eats for his palate, and
drinks for his head,
And loves for his pleasure land

This will be the case, If the argu-

been often heretofore a candidate for

party has excelled Alva Adams and
none of those who contest with him
for the nomination has approached
him.
Now it is urged that he should be
denied the only office he ever asked
of the party because he has so often,
at the request of his party and at
great personal sacrifice, been its can
didate. This argument is the more
unfair in that it is waged by and on
, behalf of one of those who insisted
on several occasions that he yield to
the demands of the party and become
it's candidate.
Party Loyalty Unquestioned.
4 Alva Adams, for the entire forty
one years of his life in Colorado, has
supported the principles and candi-
dates of the democratic party. He
was as loyal to that party in the days
l of adversely as in the days of pros
perity. He has always given freely
of his time and means, whether its
course seemed hopeless or victory as
sured. He has not been a fair
weather democrat. In spite of eff
/ forts to mislead the voters, the fact
is that, during his forty-one years of
active service, Alva Adams has held
office four and one-half years.
When but moments serious con-
sideration is given to the facts set
forth as arguments against the nom
ination of Governor Adams, 1t be-
comes clear that these facts furnish,
on the contrary, strong reasons for
his selection.
When a political party is in the
minority and out of power it always
seeks to place it's best and strongest
men at the head of the ticket. What
stronger proof of the ability and
character of man could be fur
nished than that he was five times
placed at the head of the democratic
ticket in Colorado by the unanimous
voice of the party when the party
was out of power?
Experience His Qualification.
A senator is sent to Washington as
the agent of the people to attend to
their business, and experience in
public office should be qualifica-
tion and not a disqualification on the
part of candidate. And especially
will this be the case if he made such
record in office as did Alya Ad-
ans.
The conditions in democratic poll
ties in Colorado in the course of the
last thirty years has been such that,

An Illuminating Reply.

II takes bold man to heckle Col.
Roosevelt in the course of his stump
speaking. Those who have tried il here
fofcre have had reason to regret their
temerity, for the colonel is not always
patient in his rejonders and if the ques-
ton is embarrassing he is apt to reply
by the good old fashioned 'tu quoaue"
mode of confession and avoidance. Once
in awhile. however. he flashes in real
brilliance of information. and doubtless
the man at Phoenix. Ariz.. whose intrepid
interruption is mentioned in the follow ing
passage in the Geographic reports is now
fully enlightened on the subject of his
inquiry:
What about Bill Finn Of Pittsburgh? p
q man i'm the crowd called out
a boss whose acton is to put the
people into supreme power over himself
and other bosses Is not much of a boss,
Col Roosevelt retorted.'
When this dispatch was read in Pitts
burgh probably the Hon. William Finn
had a merry quarter of an hour. Judging
from all evidences he has sense OF
humor. and it has doubtless been greatly
tickled by this mastery answer. The peo-
be delighted with the disclosure of a fact
which they had perhaps not previously
learned, that they have been put in COM
mand of their own political destinies in
their state. Now that Col Roosevelt has
assured them that Mr.. Finn has raised
them to the highest power. even over
himself. they can rest in easy assurance
that the future is secure.

months ago 1t developed that he and MIR.
Cleveland had subsequently met and be-
come friends. The Tammany orator had
even stumped for Mr.. Cleveland and been
thanked by him for the service.
When James Smith. jr., Of New Jersey
was in the Senate he antagonized Mr..
Cleveland on the tariff question. and
shared in the denunciation Mr.. Cleveland
heaped on the democratic senators who
had recast the Wilson tariff bill. But it
now appears that afterward Mr.. Cleve-
land and Mr. Smith became friends and
exchanged visits. After Mr.. Cleveland
had retired from the presidency and set
tied at Princeton. and Mr.. Smith had re-
tired from the Senate and returned to
Newark, the two men buried the 'perfidy
and dishonor episode, and chummed to-
gether with right good will. Maybe when
as retired veterans they shouldered their
crutches and showed how that particular
battle was fought, they INDUCED in a
hearty laugh together.
This last instance of Mr.. Cleveland S
gentler spirit is important at present by
reason Of the fact that as candidate for
senator Mr.. Smith is encountering the old
Cleveland denunciation. 1t is being quoted
against him as though Mr.. Cleveland had
remained and died in the opinion that Mr..
Smith was unworthy of the recognition
of true blue democrats, when the very
opposite happens to be the truth. The
story comes out in a letter written by
friend of Mr.. Smith resigning his place
as member of the New Jersey demo-
cratic state committee
