Fate,

Two shall be born the whole wide world
apart.
And speak in different tongues and have
no thought
Each of the others being. and no heed.
And these Ger unknown seas to unknown
lands
Shall cross. escaping wreck. defying death
And all uneonsciously shape every act
And bend each wandering step to this one
end
That one day out Of darkness they shall
meet
And read nfe's meaning in each others
eyes.
And two shall walk some narrow way Of
life,
So nearly side by side that should one
turn
Ever so little space TO left or right.
They needs must stand acknowledged face
to face,
And yet with wistful eyes that never
meet
with cropping hands that never clasp and
lips
Calling In vain TO ears that never hear.
They seek each other all their weary days
And die unsatisfied. And this Is fate.

BE MEN

Before the Avalanche visits
you again the Democratic Pri-
mary will have passed into
history. The Avalanche has
made a fight for what we believ-
ed cleaner politics. We have
held up the banner for Ramsey
in the governors race because
we believe him to be cleaner
man than his opponent, Or at
least he will lend his influence as
governor to cleaner, more elevat-
ing and better laws. We have
not taken a great deal of interest
in other state officers. though we
have a choice for every office
where there is more than one
offering for that place. We
would like to see Mr.. Will H..
MAiayes elected lieutenant Gov
ernor, because we believe he
will make a good one, and is a
clean man politically. In the dis
trict offices we have not taken
sides. We know all the candi-
dates and know them to be good
citizens. and so far as the Ava
lanche is concerned we doubt if
it makes any difference who is
elected district Judge or district
attorney. either we are sure will
do their best il elected, to carry
on the courts and see that the law
is respected within their jurisdic-
ton. As to the county offices,
we can hardly determine who to
vote for. We know all the can

didates and they know us. We
are good friends of theirs and
hope they are of the Avalanche.
We shall go to the polls and vote
we will vote for some one for
every one of the county officers.
We will vote as to qualifications
if there is any difference. We
will vote as to the deservability
of the candidate in some cases
and we will do so with the best
of feeling for the men whose
names we shall scratch.
The Avalanche hopes that
there will be nothing to mar the
usual peacefulness of elections
in this county. Some of the
races are getting warm. Some
things are being said and done
that possibly would be better not
said, the good advice lobe MEN
is not out of place. Men go to
the polls Saturday and vote.
Vote for what you believe to be
right. 1t is your sovereign right
to vote, it is your duty to vote
for the good of the country for
the protection of your family.
Vote, vote as men. Then when
the primary is over and the vote
is counted you can rest assured
that you did your best. That
you voted according to your con-
victions and not because the
other fellow told you to. Study
the ticket which appears in an
other part of this paper and
make your decision on a high
plane.

it was with Hartman that he had
been to the white house, that Presi-
dent Roosevelt had expressed anxiety
that the S240,000 fund be raised and
that Hartman had agreed to it.
This was McVeagh's version Of the

MacVeagh testified he had been

steel interests. and John Archbold and

by II dc Mareau. Tho fact that til use
