LLAMA FOR LINCOLN, NEE.

When Mir. Bryan was travehng III South America he became interested III llamas, and expressed a desire to have
 one on his farm in Nebraska. Accord- ingly the mayor of Buenos Ayres has
 just shipped a llama to MT. Bryan, to- gether with man to take care of the animal, which is sent by the steamship Verdi, bound for New York.
 As everybody knows, the llama is an even .toed ruminant ungulate quadru- ped, closely related to the Old World camel, but smaller, without a hump. and wolly haired. Photographs of a llama show a homely but trustworthy looking beast, with bright eyed and optimistic countenance; it almost seems to smile.
 l How the llama will get along in Lin- coin after South America is not yet though out. The llamas main busi-

ness in life is to carry burdens across rugged mountains like the Andes, the formation of it's feet enabling it to walk On slopes too rough or steep for any other animal. Its mountains are among the least conspicuous of the natural glories of Nebraska. Since the llama is provided with feet of that peculiar formation, some such rugged land is necessary for its health and general well being. If allowed simply to graze in the fat luxuriance of Nebraska pas lures, it will go wrong.
 The very least that a kind hearted man like Farmer Bryan can do for his llama is to ride it about the farm, anG jump fences with it. The exercise will be good for the llama and for Bryan too At the county fairs the new beast will he drawing card. and the Chau-

It's just as well to prick the bub-

now as any time. The facts are
stated. The danger is great; but it is
not the danger of election control by
ALTERATION, though in congress and
elsewhere that is the thing most en-
phasized.
nliterates cannot control any cleo
ton. They cannot combine. They
vote according to the way their as
sociates vote If in any state there
are ten thousand illiterate voters,
and their votes were separately
counted, they would be found di-
yided, except in the South, where the
iIliterate negro voter has opposed the
average white voter in politics and
has been in the main disfranchised
for it.
Moreover, we are DISTINGUISHING
the iIiterate voter all the time by bal
lot reform and direct legislation. An
illiterate voter cannot vote a true
Australian ballot to save his life. And
when he comes to a measure on an
initiative OF referendum ballot, he is
absolutely lost.
Government by direct legislation is
government by the Iiterate voter. As
voters the ilIiterate do not constitute
a menace.
Their menace to our institutions is /
found in the fact that they are a dis

MURDER CHARGE
AGAINST T0SGAS
Grand Forks Man Held For
killing Fellow Greek
Last Month.
TO BE ARRAIGNED
BEFORE JUSTICE
Adjournment of Grand Jury
Made Immediate Arrest.
Necessary.


+H H-
l.. Peter Toscasr,.o of Grand Forks, is
being held at Devils Lake on a charge
of murder in the first degree having
been:lodged against him as the result
Of the shooting OF Nick Tribonyas, a
month ago.
Toscas was taken to Devils Lake
last week to appear before the Ram
sey county grand jury. The illness of
n sthteis attorney of Devils Lake,
however, made necessary the adjourn
ment of that body. and a. formal war
rant for the arrest of .Toscas was ac.
cordingly issued:
He will probably be given Il hearing
In Justice court tonight according to
n Devils Lake authorities, as the
session Of the district court, which is
now in progress, makes it difficult for
the prosecuting attorney to take the
matter up during the day.
At the time of the shooting Tribon-
vas Which-took place over a month
ago, the verdict of the coroner's jury
was that the killing was accidental.
Since that time there have been
rumors that the testimony Of a num-.
Der of Greeks who appeared as wit
nesses was not correctly translated,
and that there had formerly been Ell.
nifty between Toscas and his victim.
AS a result 1t wa decided to call
the local Greek before the grand jury
investigation. The adjournment Of
that body has made necessary his
formal arrest and arraignment before
a Justice.
