COLONEL WORKING
ON WILSON EXPOSE
Declares Jersey Governors At
tack on Him Will Bring An
swers-Has Easy Day.

SUPERIOR, Wis. Oct. 1o.-'I prob
ably shouldn't make the reference to
Mr.. Wilson that ] am going TO
make said Colonel Roosevelt here
today, If he hadn't attacked me. But
when anybody attacks me he might
as well understand that / won't take
1t lying down. I'm a man of peace
full disposition, but l think I am able
to defend myself
Colonel Roosevelt stopped for an
hour in Superior this morning on
his way to Minnesota. His managers
had planned a comparatively easy
day for him, after two days of rapid
fire speechmaking in Michigan. He
was 20 spend most of the day in
Duluth, and no speeches elsewhere
were scheduled save tbs one at
Superior.
Colonel Roosevelt's fayorite books,
his companions on his other cam
palgn trips, have been laid aside on
his present tour and he has devoted
all the time available to the prepare
ton of his speeches. Last night he
completed his speeches for the pres.
ent week, and today he began those
which he is TO deliver next week.
Having given more than a month
to the exposition of the principles
of the new party, which he believes
are now well marked, he plans to
take a new line of attack during the
closing weeks of the campaign and
"unlimber the big guns" His speech
in Hougllton, in which he criticised
Governor Wilson for the "sullen hos
tility" toward labor. which, he said,
Mr.. Wilson had displayed in the
past, was the first of the series of
exposes which he IL expected to
make.

DINNER STORIES.


There was a delay at a moving
picture show in P~latteville. The
people present grew restless. Ii was
up to the manager TO explain.
He came out and said: Ladies and
gents: The derned machines busted

Admiral Robert e. Perry was in the
smoking compartment of a train leay-
ing New Orleans for the North. A
fussy young man. evidently a COM
mercial traveller on his first trip. came
in and sought to make conversation.

long, tedious journey"
Yes assented Peary.
I'm going clear through to ATT
lanta. Long, tiresome trip. too
Yes observed Peary.
Maybe you're not going SC far AZ

Maybe not"
How far are you going
oh said Peary. I'm only going
to the North Poleiat
When j. Sloat Fassett, Of New
York. was making n of his CAM
paigns for Congress his Democratic
opponent derided him because he
parts his name in the middle.
"I admit it," said Fassett in q
speech soon afterward, and / am
not ashamed of it. So long as T..

his name parted in the middle, /

THE COAL NINE AS A FURNACE.

Az ILL the day come when instead of bringing coal to the
WV furnace we make Il furnace of the coal mine? Sir
William Ramsay's idea of burning coal as it lies in
the earth and obtaining power from the gas is now to be put
to the test in England. The coal is to be ignited by an electric
wire and the gas piped 10 the surface. Of course the coal
mining and carrying industries would not be wiped out alto
gether, rs the radius of the economic distribution of power OBJ
tanned in this way would be limited, but the success of this
experiment would mean a tremendous industrial revolution.
And TOO many scientific marvels have been wrought in this age
to permit us to regard anything as impossible.

A pUzzxNd PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

HERE is mo betting on the results of the presidential cleo.
I'll ton, for everybody is completely befOgged, and the wise
fs acres know no more than the man on the street. There
ahas been no similar situation since 1860, when there were four
presidential tickets-Lincon, Douglas, Breckenridge and Bell
and in a total vote of 4,676,S Lincoln got 1,S66352, which was
"a plurality over Douglas of 491, LOS, but was 944,149 less than a
majority. In 1860 the Democratic party split and ran two can.
didates-Douglas and Breckinridge-who together poned 1920,
g20 votes, or 1854, sos votes more than Lincoln. The quid nuncs
were completely at fault in 1860 until the votes were counted,
and there will be as complete a mystifcation in the present re.
markable campaign until the election returns tell the story.

Not Quite Right.

A story is being told of a couple OF
tourists in Spain who could not speak
the language, and, consequently, mad
some difficulty in making known their
wants.
One day they came to a wayside
inn and tried to obtain some meat
roast beef, for choice. But NOBODY
could understand them.
'eWhat are we going to do?' asked
one of them, despairingly.
II know, said the other, a ray or
hope appearing. -Ill draw a picture
of a COW. Then they'll understand.
He made a rough sketch OF a COW,
put a ''2" beneath, and handed It TO
the waiter, who instantly smiled to
show that he understood, and went
off to execute their order.
A few minutes later he returned
with w tickets for a local bull fight.

originaI Confidence Man.

A story is told of old New York
and of how the expression. conf

one could not place confidence at all.
1t is said that some years ago a
very well dressed man with a cour-
teous address was wont TO walk up

city.
Whenever he mel a stranger VINO
looked hopeful to him he would APP

ask:

WHY HOMICYDES ARE INCREASING.

IN WEEK from arrest TO Indictment and a week from indict
ment to trial ought to be enough in most criminal
cases, according to Justice Green, of the New York
city court. The delay in bringing criminals to justice is a blot
on American Jurisprudence, and New York is the chief offender.
This is why such desperadoes as the gunner in the Rosenthal
ease are not worrying. And ii is one reason why there are
eight and onethird homicides Il year in every 100000 of the
population of our large cities, against five and onehalf in 1882.
Life is held too cheaply and the preposterous slowness of the
judicial machinery puts a premium on murder.

MORE REPRESENTATIVE LEGISLATURES.

cTa 90 many lawyers and not enough manufacturers in Con
gress is the sententious comment of Thomas A. Edison.
1t applies TO all our State legislatures as well. All the
great interests, as we'll as the sections of the country, should
have their representatives in national and State legislatures in
some fair proportion. Lawyers are necessary in a legislative
body. but men trained in and representative of the legal pro
fession lake +he lawyers view of things, and often 1t is II mar

membership is composed of LAWYERS.
