Pat ScanIon's Scheme.

Anaconda Standard: Don't you
know" said P. H. Scanlon of the Mil
waukee road last evening at the
Thornton, that the ingenuity Of the
American in adapting himself to the
conditions that confront or surround
him is well known? During the late
Spanish-American war, when the
American soldiers were camped at ana
around Tampa, Fla, awaiting trans
ports tnat never came to take them to
cuba, bright one among the bunch
OF regulars scouting through the coun-
try discovered process for convert
ing the hitherto worthless pine of that
district into charcoal equal in quality
to that made of hard wood. The pine
is put into an alright retort from
which there is no outlet save from a
worm at one end. It is then subjected
to an intense ..eat, and about two gal
Ions OF non-poisonous alcohol are dis
titled from each cord of wood, enough
to pay for the making of the char
coal.
"The effects of this discovery will
doubtless be far-reaching. A man will
soon be able to saw off cocktail from
the leg of table, and instead of see-
ing man between the acts he may
keep his seat and get full on the tooth
picks he carries in his pockets. On
his return home from the theater a
cocktail could be carved from the
broom handle and the man without a
home would be able to get comfort of
that sort even out of the worst kind uf
board. These will be cold days for
the cigar store Indian. In Butte he
would have to be clad in medieval
armor. However, every man could be
his own bartender and summary laws
of the most azure kind could not re-
strain a man from chopping up the
bureau in order to properly entertain
crowd of congenial cronies. The
only drawback now discernable Is that
every man with a wooden leg would
be In danger of having it amputated
about four times minute. Every day
would be Arbor day and timber claims
would flourish like a green bay tree.
Besides all this, by grating a milk
Ing stool and slip from a Connecti-
cut nutmeg tree on sugar maple an
experienced man fully aware of the
great graft In prospect could secure
the finest brand of milk punch. And,
again"-but what Scanlan started to
say was that the Milwaukee's Olym.
plan was still doing a very fair busi-
ness, thank you.

Washington, April 3.-That the dele.

Socialism Repudjated.

Milwaukee, April 3.-Dr. c. A.
Badlng, non-partisan candidate for
mayor, defeated Mayor Emil Seidel,
the socialist, by vote OF 43,1l7 to
$4,000.
VI the 33 aldermen elected 26 were
non-partlsan and Z were socialists.
Win lour socialist hold-over aldermen

Oh ~ nOn-partisan aldermen and IL
socialists.
1'ne election Is believed to have
eliminated every national political
party from participation in future ekec-
tons In the state OF Wisconsin. For,
as result OF the nOn-partisan victory
the city of Milwaukee, the state leg
lslature at special session soon to
be convened is expected to pass dis
tlnctly non-partisan city election
statute. The socialists defeated such
a measure at the last session OF the
legislature, but yesterdays rout was
said virtually to have killed socialist
strength In the state general assem-
bly,.
From the head of the ticket down
through the common council and
county board o. supervisors the voters
piled up large totals for candidates
on the non-partisan ticket.
The present council is composed of
~ socialists and IA non-partisan men,

The next council will be larger
through a recent apportionment and
the creation of two new wards in the
city. The widespread interest in the
fight to unseat the socialist admins.
tration was indicated by the unusually
heavy total vote of nearly $4,000. The
highest previous total vote cast In
municipal election was 58,454 at the
time Mayor Seidel was elected two
years ago.

His wife heard him yell as the rope

The North Dakota primaries in

democrats In all Of the west, but MIR.
Walsh, who was caller at the Wood.
row Wilson headquarters, In company
with United States Senator Myers, Of
Montana, says he has talked with q
number Of the delegates, and that Gov

other candidates. The North Dakota
delegation to the democratic national
convention Is headed by former United
States Senator w. e. Purcell, who is
well remembered in Washington. and
who is q brother of Mayor-elect r.. h.

the most sincere admirers Of Cover.
nor Wilson in the nation. He Is au-
thority for the statement that North
Dakota's second choice Is the New
Jersey executive.
Montana democrats have never
sent an instructed delegation to a ma
an exception this year," declared Mr..
Walsh, "and instruct the delegation
that goes to Baltimore to vote for
Woodrow Wilson first, last and all
the time. The New Jersey governor
is the overwhelming choice of Mon
tana democrats. They like him be.
cause of the things he stands for, and
they will not only give him their sup
port at Baltimore, but they will roll
up great majority for him in the
November election. Governor Wilson
is the strongest presidential possi
bility in either party among western
people. In our state both Governor
Norris and Senator Myers favor his
nomination, but his strength is not
confined to the party. He would gel
every Independent vote and good
part of the republican progressive
vote If nominated.
1T is difficult to correctly estimate
the wonderful hold Governor Wilson
has on the people. When l was II

Bryan Sizes Up Problems.

William ]. Bryan. in the now ia
nous "thorn-ts-.n-my-side" speech,
which Is the new campaign address
now being delivered by him through
out the country, passes on several Of
the new problems of 1912 In the fol-
lowing fashion:
On Roosevelt anu Taft-Taft has
stood still and the people have
marched past him. l never expected
such vindication as l have today. /
had suspicion that the people made
a mistake when they denied me the
presidency and elected Taft. Now l
know l was right, because have the
word of Roosevelt himself on that
matter. Roosevelt now says Taft
ought not to be reelected. Taft says
Roosevelt ought not to be reelected.
I'm compelled to believe they're both
rigAt.
On the Steel Trust-This trust was
strong enough to walk into the White
House and threaten a president with
panic. The Panama canal will cost
$3.50 100000. The holdings of the steel
trust are worth not more than $780,
100000. Yet, when it was formed, it
was capitalized at $1,4OU,OOO,OO In
other words, the organizers wrote out
$7OO,0O0,O0O and put that sum into
their own pockets, an amount twice
as great as the cost of the Panama
canal.
On the Recall-The recall Is nothing
to be afraid of. 1t is only a hook to
use in pulling an official away from
the public trough before he's willing
to go.
On the Initiative and Referendum
A few years ago President Roosevelt
sent Mr.. Taft to Oklahoma to tell the
folks there to leave the initiative and
referendum out of their new constitu-
ton. Now Mr.. Roosevelt goes to Mr..
Taft's own statee, Ohio, and tells the
constitution makers that the initiative
and referendum is a wonderful thing,
that ought to be put into their con.
stitut.On.

DO YOU WALK. RIDE. OR PUSH?
THE following story was told at polite
1 BANQUET bY a we'll known pOlitician:

THE following story was told at political
banquet by a well known politician:
II was going to the seashore, and the jerk
water railroad left me at wretChed station
about ten miles from the resort. However,
we were consoled by the information that
the numbering old stage made daily trip,
and | went to bargain for my fare.
ado you want to go first, second, or third
class asked the driver.
"True to my creed that nothing was too
good for me- | chose fiTst-class passage at
seventy-five cents.
"'All right. Git in and choose your seat!'
II watched the other passengers pay their
quarters and half-dollars; but when we
started | found nty-five-cent man on
fact, all passengers were sandwiched in, re-
gardless of financial benefits.
Il was mad clear through; but luckily did
not boil over. We logged along until we
struck an awful piece of road; when the
driver stopped, stuck the blacksnake whip
into the socket, tied the lines round it,
jumped off his seat, jerked open the door,
and shouted:
"'All you twenty -ive-cent men and you
flfty-cent men must get out, and let the sew
enty-five-cent gent stay where he is. The
fifty-cent men must walk, and the twenty
five-cent men must push, or We'll never get
the stage out of this gol darn snkhole!'
"And, Gentlemen, this is the political situ-
alton today. The seventy -hve-cent men are
riding, the fifty-cent men are walking, and
the poor twenty-fve-cent beggar Is pushing
the political machine. Are you riding, or
walking, or pushing?"
