A NEW BIRTH OF FREEDOM

Under the leadership of Woodrow Wilson the Dem ocratc party has its greatest victory since o52 But this victory awdry partisan triumph. 1t IS no vote of confidence in the Democratic party as party 1t IS mandate the people, and be unto this Democracy if they faer in obedience to that mandate
 The country is seething with political dlscontent Tn spite of it's unparalleled material wealth and prosperity This dsconent confined to particular class or section Rich and poor alike children of fortune ana cdren or poverty have begun lose faith in the efficacy of their Government to establish justice and promote the general welfare They not where the fault es they are not united to the remedy; but this they knowthat their institutions have been seized by privileged interests and turned against them that sube mysterious forces operating have proved time after time that her power over public affairs greater than the of the people as whoe and they demand that their government be emancpated from this partnership.
 This is the great work that confronts Woodrow Wilson and the Democratic paryto restore popular confidence i'll institutions of the Republic and reestablish govern ment of the people, by the people and for the people,
 For sixteen years the Republican party has been in tnuous control of national affairs In 1896 it polled 7,1O4, 799 votes. In 1900 it boiled 72O7923 votes In 1904 boiled 1893, ,4S6 votes. In 1908 it boiled 67S 9OS votes But suddenly this seemingly nvincbe organization crashing down to ruin because it had not kept the faith The Democratic party in turn will go crashing down to ruin if it does not keep the faith
 The American people are no longer hypnotized by party labels and party embems They concerned with principles of government and with parties means of ranslang those principles into action They have made Woodrow Wilson President because they believe that his ideals are their idea that his courage is their courage and that he will find way to right the wrongs against which they have protested.
 of lesser character of lower ideals, Ot smaller ability could not have won the victory that Governor Will son He could not have appealed to the imagination of the country Woodrow Wilson appealed to it. No has been elevated to the Presidency who fully the peoples President than this college professor who scorned alike the support of the bosses and the support of Putocracy It tremendous compliment that the voters have paid to him. but the responsibility is equally great
 If he should fail, the consequences must be douby disastrous If he succeeds The World believes he w a new will have begun in American history with new vindcaton of Republican institutions and vndica ton of the immortal principles of the Republic the Nation will indeed have new birth of freedom.-New York World.

OH, YOU CHARLEY

Peeking from the observatory in dark gray dawn of morning on Friday last. Long Shorty, the Flat-creek as- tronomer. espied unique luminous body ringing the continental divide 'twixt Flat and Happy creeks. Mount ing his coming tower in the vain hope of bestowing the new planetoid with his first wife's name, the eminent star gazer rushed to his telescope, swung the big machine on the object and got it within range.
 Unable to decide whether the new comer was a satellite, or of the planet family, Long Shorty in fixed gaze saw it splutter repeatedly, then regain it's luminous glory, and to his infinite dis gust it lost itself in a willow patch.
 Thirty minutes later the Hon, Char ley Maltby, glass-eyed and frost GOV cred, and armed with 60-candlepowe carbide lantern, made his appearance at Shorty's headquarters and remarked incidentally that he had staked mill site for his quartz mine while the moor was on the wane What the astrono mer sad is another story.
 Charley left the hilltop by lamp!ight next evening, returning to Iditarod the following day.

FER0CIOUS HUNTING DOG
 DISTINGUISHES HIMSELF

Al Walsh has hunting dog of which he is very proud. Al claims it is ab- solutely fearless, tackling anything that comes along, and looking upon fight with a grizzly simply as a diversion to be li5htly indulged in before break fast. An example of this animals skill and ferocity was brought back by re- cent arrival from the Aniak, It appears that while on the trail
 with the team Al espied wolverine of
 ferocious aspect. Quickly unhitching the famous hunting dog. he turned him
 loose on the trail of the wolverine. The dog broke into the W flows in pur- suit. Presently he returned, with the corners of his mouth dropping and tail
 between legs.
 Al surmised that his famous hunting dog had caught up with the wolverine,
 worsted it, and then been ashamed tc acknowledge so easy victory. So he started off with gun to bring in the booty. But not a sign of Mr. NolVer' inc could be seen-no blood nor fur, nor any indications of mortal combat Disgustedly he returned to the sled
 where the famous hunting dog was sinking around as though he had stolen the butter. Al gave him a withering look, and all that could be heard for hours afterwards was: "Mush, you mal- amute, mush"'

''BLACK PERIL"
THREATENS
RAND MINES

johannesburg, South Africa, July s
Six thousand native black laborers
from three of the largest mines on
the Rand joining the labor upheaval
this morning. Should the disaifection
among them spread to the other 250,-
600 natives employed on the reef, it
will mean mean that the white inhabi-
tants will be confronted again with
the "black peril which has been
acquiescent for some years.
The natives refused to descend into
the mine unless granted an INCREASE
OF wages and 1000 men employed in
one mine broke out of their COM
pound They were awed, however, by
the leveled rifles of the troops who
had been posted to deal with this SER
ious development and they returned
to their quarters.
Most of the white strikers have re-
turned.

0. R. c. AND TRAINMEN
Vote TO STRIKE.
EMPLOYEES or ABOVE UNIONS ON WEST.
ERN ROADS ANNOUNCE THAT STRIKE
WILL Be CALLED UNLESS DEMANDS
ARE MET BY ROADS.

New York, July S-Ninety per
cent of the members of the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen and of the
Order Of Railway Conductors out of
1913 participating in strike vote
on the western railroads are in favor
of strike. These figures We're an
nounced today at joint meeting Of
union representative and committee
Of railroad managers,
When the conference convened the
Erie railroad announced that it had
withdrawn from the proceedings on
the ground that it would be unable to
meet any advance which might re-
suit. This practically invites strike.
The Erie statement, signed by J,
c. Stuart, vice president says in
part:
similar proceedings in the last
few years have resulted in increased
wages and while it may be possible
for some roads to meet these in
creases, the Erie railroad is not in
position to do so at present The
wage increase demand amounts to
% per cent or a total annual cost on
The basis of present figures of practic-
ally S1,200,000."
The Erie says il is willing to con-
slider wages and conditions of individ-
lals but will not agree to any gen
aral increase to any class of employees
1t the sacrifice Of needed safety ap-
Dliances and improved equipment.
After the unions had submitted the |
'esult of the strike vote and reiterated !
heir demands the conference ad |
ourned. President A. B. Garrison, for !
he conductors and w. G. Lee for the |
rainmen then announced that con- |
erence of union heads from all the |
Dads involved would be held here !
Saturday at which the strike vote
would be confirmed and a course of
ction adopted. The result will be
eported to the railroads Monday.
With reference to the Erie, Mr.,
zee said if that roads withdrawal
recipitated a strike it would not be
gainst the Erie alone but against all
he roads.
