ELECTION OF WOODROW WIZ
SON.

Woodrow WilEon has been elected
President of the United States by an
overwhelming majority. This news
has sent thrill of joy into the soul Of
everyEDemocrat throughout the broad
domain of the United States. This is
the third time Democrat has been
elected to the position of chief execu-
tive for over three-score years. The
result had been, it seems, accurately
OWNED by those who had taken invcn-
tories of the political situation dur
ing the past four months.
1t is needless to repeat the vital is
sues which have brought about the de
feat of the republican party. The o--
ganization had long ago become an
cyesore to many in every section of
the country whose eyes had been
opened to the fact that the organiza-
ton was simply huge machine, de-
void of patriotism, and exifting mern-
ly for commercial purposes by perpct-
uating the injustice which has been
practiccd upon long-suffering people
by trusts, combines and selfish manu-
facturers. The cry of the present oc-
cupant of the White House that tinan-
cial ruin would follow disturbance
of the present order Of things failed
of effect. That the people, In the
language of the late P. I. Barnum,
"prefer to be humbugged," is not al
ways true. There are times wher
they refuse to be hoodwinked any
longer, and rise up in their mignt
against wholesale fraud and injustice.
Theodore Roosevelt has received q
decided setback, his services having
been declined as a would-bc third
termer. He has played his last polis-
ical act and will soon purchase q
ticket for Salt river.
William j. Bryan in recent speech
ikened President Taft to a toy which
has proven disappointing by walking
backwards. He was foisted upon the
nation by Roosevelt who has attempt
ed to ride into power upon the retl:-
ing Presidents weakness. The great
majority of thep eople, have wisely
declined the services of both the pres
ent and former occupant Of the White
House. :
Scenes in Alexandria last night
brought to the minds of many now
living a similar outburst in November
1884, when Grover Cleveland was d.
clared elected president of the United
States. The stae democratic head
quarters were at that time situated II
the old Farmers Bank building on tn:
north side of Prince street, between
Royal and Pitt, and crowds of anx
ious members of the party packed tina
building and vicinity for the purpo:'
of hearing returns read. That mem
orable contest was close and hinge

carried by Mr.. Cleveland by the snal

THE NATIONAL GAME.
eassbail 10 Played All Year Refund,
Winter az Well ss Sunnsr.

Winter az Well ~ Sunmsr.
Baseball is the national game. 1t
is played with a bali and bat in the
summer time, and with newspapers,
injunctions, contracts and trust
magnates in the winter. Originally
baseball was Il game 10 see which
player could get the most runs. OF
late it has become a game to sec
which magnate can get the most
players. The magnates fight for
the pennsnt all winter and the
teams ratify the decision the next
summer.
Baseball is divided into different
denominations, like money. A play
er is a man who throws a ball or
catches it OF bats at it. A team is
composed of nine players who play
and nineteen more who are drawing
salaries. A league is composed of
eight teams and a sguabble over the
salary limit. A commission is COM
posed or all the leagues IN the coun-
try. Baseball is now so well organ
lied that if a player plays zone old
cat" with his infant son without the
commissions permission he is fined
more than if he hit the same son
with a baseball bat.
1t is a very difficult matter to
play baseball successfully. 1t is
even more difficult to witness a
game in an expert manner. A good
baseball player can play $50 games
in succession, but a baseball fan
who goes to three games in success
sion becomes so hoarse that he has
to talk on his fingers. A player can
throw a ball 100 yards. but some
fans can throw pop bottles two
blocks. Baseball is not played in
the English language. 1t Is played
in the American language, which
was invented by the baseball re-
portsn.--Peoria Herald Transcript.

BACK TO THE SOIL.

\ reader sends in the following
the wall of tiller of the soil in
ichigan, which tells in few words
why so many from the eastern states
come to the Rogue River valley
where life is less strenuous:
AT p. m the farmer feeds his
horses and his sheep At > he drags
the hired man reluctant from his
sleep. At 6 the breakfast horn re-
sounds Ger valley, hill and field to
call him to the morning meal of
things his acres yield And so all day
upon his way the cheerful farmer
plods and agitates with hoe and plow
his deeply mortgaged sods At 10 p.
m. he milks his COWS and gathers up
the eggs and rubs a quart of lima
ment upon his weary legs. The hon
est farmers simple life is one of
healthtul toll consumed in teasing
things to grow upon unfriendly soil.
The farmer is a happy guy, for when
the day is done ,nere's nothin' more
for him to do until tomorrow's sun" ="
