Schaffner, of Souris, Mr.. Sharpe, of Lis.
gar; and other Western Empire-savine
statesmen who declared that to have

Government to act without delay in

THE DISAPPEARING
PROGRESSIvEs.

The Progressives have been an as
sistant Democratic Party from the be-
ginning. They made Wilson president
and the House of Representatives al.
most solidly Democratic. They missed
fire in Maine, but sent Democrat to
the House in the by-election of West
Virginia. In Illinois they have played
the hoodoo of politics.
The election to fill a vacancy in the
Illinois Supreme Court has been held
important. The Court is to pass on the
woman suffrage law and is said to be
equally divided as to It's validity. The
District used to be strongly Republican,
but was st1ong for Roosevelt last year.
Now it has elected Democrat to the
Supreme Court. with the Progressive a
bad third. The women in politics cam
pa'gned for the Progressive, because he
promises them "social justice" The
Democrat merely promised to decide
cases as he believed the Constitution
requires.
The figures are impressive. Last year
these ten counties gave Taft 1900,
Roosevelt $4,000, Wilson $4,000. In the
same election, they gave Deneen (Repub-
llcan) $4,000, Dunno (Democrat) 30, ,OOO.
Funk (Progressive) $4,000. Thus even
on Governor the Progressives beat the
Repu ublicans and approached the Demo-
Gratis. This year the vote was only half
that for President, but double the usual
judicial vate. Craig, Democrat, got
ls, 900; Puteobaugh, Republican. $4,000;
Shay, Progressive, 5000
So the Progressives got less than one.
third their former vote for Governor
the Republicans nearly equalled their
Taft vote on half the total, the Demo.
Gratis fell over 10000 short of Wilson and
Dunno, and Craigs plurality is far be.
low the majority of the united opposition
If this is all the Progresslves can do IN
Roosevelt stronghold with the women
helping them, ambitious candidates will
soon be hunting a sure vaccine against
their dangerous nomination.-Mlnnea

dent Wilson's speech at Mobile, on Mon

President Wilson in the above has at.
tempted to state as fact that which is
only theory. He has taken a desire, a
wish and made 1t prophecy.
That President Wilson and the whole
of the people of the United States are
honest when they say that they do not
desire any more territory by conquest
is absolutely true-and the President
might have added that we do not desire
at this time to acquire any more terri
tory by any means.
The acquisitions of outside territory
that we already have on our hands have
mostly proven of about as much advant-
age to us as barnacles attached to ship,
But there is sharp distinction be.

we stand simply as guardians. Hawaii

to 60 back to Cuba twice already and
spank or threaten to spank them, to keep
them in order.
The principles stated by the President
are very flattering to our own honesty Of
purpose. are very soothing to our con-
sciences, but after all are very much like
the modern prize-fight which has sub.
stituted hard gloves for naked fists-but
men are still killed in the prize ring.

Daniels Gathers Eggs;

C ECRETARY of the Navy Daniels
~ the other day disclosed the fact
that he keeps at his country place
near Washington some ninety chick
ems, that yield him every day twenty
eggs, and he thereby put himself in
line for a lot of trouble.
For when Secretary of State Bryan,
who keeps a riding horse by the name
of Rex. but who owns no chickens,
heard about his colleagues wealth, he
made the proposal that Mr.. Daniels
ought to divide those fresh eggs
among the other members of the cabi-
net. Mr.. Daniels has not yet been
heard from on the proposal, but the
general opinion is that If the secretary
of state wants any of the eggs from
the Daniels chicken coop, he will have
to mount his horse Rex some morn
ing before daybreak and ride out and
get them himself
Secretary Daniels said incidentally
that he is opposed to having the
clerks of the government departments
report at 8 O'Clock, because it would
necessitate his making his morning
rounds to gather eggs at least an hour
earlier each day Mr.. Daniels allows
himself to be an hour later than the
clerks of his department, but makes

FEARLESS RAVENS

From time immemorial ravens have
been the subject of song, story. and
superstition. Their fearlessness, trick
cry, contradictory manners, artfulness,
harsh note, ugly form, and beautiful
black plumage have formed the theme
for many a bird-lore story.
Perhaps one of the most curious
facts about the raven is that while
there is no more shy bird, or one more
difficult to get near to, when it Is wild,
none tanes more easily, and when
tanned it is totally fearless. When
wild, the raven will never dare to at
tack any bird, but will steal eggs or
young. and hover around uttering the
most dismal croaks. But once tanned,
he thinks nothing of walking up to
your dog and using old Towsers back
as sort of penwiper for cleaning his
beak. and viii often go SO far, ii the
dog is asleep, as to pull the animals
ears and tweak it's tail. flying away
with a great scurry when the dog
groWls at him, but returning again in
few minutes to renew the attack.

MARINERS QUEER MlxUP

One OF the most extraordinary
stories ever told of the sea is related
by Captain Engellandt, owner of the
steel sailing ship Erndte. He was at
sea with three men on board when
great gale came sweeping and tearing
and screaming over the waves. and
drove his vessel before it into the
gathering blackness of night. The
skipper stuck to the wheel all through
the long hours OF darkness. and the
gale dying down to a snarlmg growl
at a. M, he relinquished his post
and stepped down to his cabin for
change of clothes.
It was at this moment the real busi-
ness OF the day began. He had just
got into dry underclothing when the
vessel quietly turned bottom upward,
and lie found himself standing on the
roof of the cabin, with the door over
his head Theoretically sealed by the
ocean. Was ever a man in such straits
before?
He climbed through into the hold
of the vessel, where he found raisins,
condensed milk, prunes, rice, and, of
course, Teutonic sausage. Eating
sparingly of this healthy fare, and
hammering on the steel bottom of
the boat to attract the attention of
any ship that hight happen to. pass.
