An old subscriber writes us: II
see you clip as many Of your
Opinions of Editors from the demo-
cratic papers as you do from the re-

For various reasons, among them the
following: we find that the opinions
Of democratic editors enbody equally
as much common sense as do:those of
the republican editors; quotations
from democratic editors give our
readers an opportunity4to make COM
parsons of politicaI: opinions; ; demo
cratic editors do as much to enhance
the progresssof the'country, by advo-
eating good roads, intensive farming,
etc., as the republican editors; the

production;. if it considers an

The q nj 10 n is not so straight-laced
that it confines itself to republican

replied that the Jews had killed our

COUNTRY-SA TERS, READ THIS,

Ho! We -jamming country
saving patriots, read this little poem
in prose by the poet philosopher,
Walt Mason
eff the men who save the nation
in. the old accustomed way, piling
up, without vacation, heaps of lam
guage day: by day, would forsake the
verbal byways; dump their e}ooution
wares, and do stunts upon the high
ways, we'd have splendid thorough
fares! Better roads in all directions
that is what this country needs,
but we donot make connections with
the sane and useful deeds; half the
energy expended in conventions and
the like would see shameful high
ways ended if exhausted on the pike.
Hosts Of. Windy Jims have thundered
on. Chicago's pleasant. shore; hosts of
Windy Jims have Numbered through
their stunts: at Baltimore. That's
the way men save the nation in
these foolish,I futile years, holding a
big conyocation where they bawl like
brindled steers. All their platforms
are delusions,~~ all their pledges are
hot air; all they give us is confusion
and a chance to brood and swear.
All, it is a Thousand pities that we
thus so long have sinned! One good
road connecting cities beats a
thousand years of wind! Politics is
mostly pillage when it isn't foolish
noise; a good highway to our village

A Horse of Another Color.

Five candidates are running for
governor, all calling themselves re-
publicans. They are Gordon, Lee,
Young, Spooner and Eberhart. Of
these Gordon. and Lee have pro-
claimed that under no circumstances
will they support Taft, while. Young
thinks it would be consistent with
republican party loyalty to support
Wilson. This SINNERS the list of re-
publican gubernatorial candidates
down to horsepower and Eberhart.
These have not found it necessary to
parade their party disloya1ty by bolt
ing Taft and are presumably republi-
cans still. 1t is apparently up to re-
publicans to choose between the two,
and if one of the first. three be
nominated, follow their precept and
example-vote for the democratic
gubernatorial. candidate. = Preston

Before the plaster hardened half dollars, quarters, and 20 cent pieces, he latter Mexican currency, were placed. When the plaster hardened the coins we're removed and the moulds were left.

The snake was one of the most vicious of it's kind and was on the fight as soon as it came in sight of the Indian camp.

The wound in the chest is the most dangerous, the force of the blow causing one of the ribs to be showed inward and occasioning him considerable pain. He is con- fined to his bed and it will be sev- eral days before he will be able to resume his business duties. The animal was considered one of the most docile on the place, and MT.
