TOLD TO THE DEMOCRAT.

James A. Hoare; Calvert Spensley is
right that is one of the best streets to
be seen anywhere. But you must al
ways expect strong opposition to such
movements. James Spensley, one of
best representatives we ever had on the
county board of supervisors, was tenn
porarily retired from membership in
that body because he voted in favor of
building the county asylum. Now
everybody acknowledges that the build
ing of the asylum was one of the best
moves the county ever made.

1t appears as if almost any kind
of a man, creature or thing is
good enough for supporters Of the
man with the big teeth just so that
they are unequivocally for him for
the nomination, says the st.
Joseph Observer. Read this
dispai ch from South Missouri and
then see what you think of it:
Ozark, Mo. March l5.-Four
prisoners from the Christian
county jail are t"day strong
believers in the holding of political
conventions on the slightest pro.
vocation.
"At the county republican
convention being held here to
elect delegates to the state and
the fourteenth district conven-
tions, four prisoners whose terms
in Jail did not expire for several
days were paroled, Roosevelt
badges pinned on them. and they
were seated in the convention.
Before being escorted to the
opera house where the convention
was in session, the prisoners were
taken to hotel, dined. and cleaned
up. Taft supp orteres held con-
vention on the public square.
Two sets of delegates were
elected"
And Teddy and his followers can

ONE OF THE REASONS
PEOPLE LIVE HERE

One of the principal delights
incident to living out in the desert
mining camps is the continual
state of uncertainty which attaches
to every move CT our daily life.
1t is continual and continuous
game of perhaps. In the morning.
as the shadow of the eastern hills
grows shorter and the sun begins
to peep over the crest of the
malipai. one begins to speculate as
to the kind OF weather the day
will produce. There is nothing
on which to base an opinion, no
criterion by which to Judge. Let
the sun rise on a perfectly clear
sky not a cloud in sight nor a
breath of wind stirring, and any.
where hut here il would be safe to
predict fine weather for the day.
Not so in the mountains. Half an
hour may bring a gale of wind,
the sun may be obsured by angry
black clouds. Threatening to deluge
every thing. and in another ffte en-
minutes the storm has blown past,
not drop Of rain has fallen, and
everything as calm and serene as
the CLASSY surface of a mountain
lake. What is coming next is
beyond the power of man to tell.
1t is the same with everything
as it is with Ire weather. If a
man digs in the ground for the
foundation of a building, he may
expose a gold bearing quartz vein.
Followed down it may turn to
silver, and then to copper. You
can never tell a speck about it.
The kind of people who inhabit
mining camps are the kind who
rove to guess and gamble, whv are
forever chasing the end of the
rainbow, and the reason they go to
mining camps is because there are
plenty of opportunities to guess
and gamble, and plenty of rain
bows to chase. Wonder News

ENFORCE THE AUTO
MOBILE ORDINANCE

There is considerable complaint
about automobiles racing through
the streets at from twenty to forty
miles an hour. There is an
ordinance limiting the speed of
these machines to ten or twelve
miles an hour and their drivers
should be made to respect it.
Idaho and Court sire cts seem to
be favorite streets for drivers of
automobiles to turn their machines
loose. Court street runs past the
high school and public school and
there is danger of children being
run over and killed. There is also
danger of people of all classes
being run over by automobiles
exceeding the speed limit.
There are a large number of
automobiles in town now and their
owners may think the streets
belong to them and other people
have no right to be caught on
them. The sooner they get that
idea out of their heads the better
it may tie for thcu.
The peace officers should arrest
all persons. regardless of age, sex
or condition, who run their auto
mobiles through the streets at
rate of speed in excess of that
fixed by the ordinance. Give them
a taste or two of the law and they
will come to their senses.
