FREDERICKS WILL BE
JOHNSON'S OPPONENT
RECEIVES REPUBLICAN NoMiNA-
TIoN FOR CALIFORNIA
GOVERNOR

San Francisco, Aug. 26.-Returns
coming in slowly from yesterdays pri-
mary have not changed the results
indicated last night that John ID.
Fredericks, republican, will oppose HI
ram w. Johnson, incumbent progress
sive. for the governorship in the
November election that Francis ].
Heney has won the progressive-demo-
cratic nomination.
Todays returns kept Samuel M,
Shortridge in the lead over Joseph
r. Knowland for the republican nomi-
nation for the senate. The outstand
ing feature of the balloting is the
achievement of John NJ. Eshleman
progressive candidate for lieutenant
governor, in capturing also the repub
lican nomination. Progressive man
ayers assert that Eshelman's vote in
dicates the real progressive strength
in the state while republican and dem
ocratic managers declare that Eshle
mans following is personal ratheI
than partisan.
Today's early returns reversed las
nights figures on the republican non
ination for United States senator, giN
ing Joseph r. Knowland long lea
over Samuel M. Shortridge.

Just Because She Loves Him

In the September American Maga
zine Katherine Holland Brown, writing
story entitled "Aunt Jane and the
Lion-Tamer," tells about girl named
Elizabeth Ann who is going to marry
man named Jerry Ladyard. Jerry
is somewhat of a pioneer and is going
to take his bride as far as Ecuador
on a business adventure which may
or may not turn out well. This does
not disturb Elizabeth Ann in the least
however. 1t does not seem sensible
that Elizabeth Ann should do this,
hut she is going to do it just the
same. Her brother puts it this way
to her.
Il don't give a whoop for instances.
The fact remains that you're going to
leave us all, and go streaking off to
the ends of the earth with that vision
ar, cub. You'll put up with all sorts
of privations, and never realize how
miserable you are, just because you
think he's the whole thing. Worse,
you'll keep right on thinking he's the
whole thing. You'll shut your eyes to
his failures. you'll gloat over his sue
cesses, you'll stick by him like glue
And no matter how tough lite you
must face in that wilderness. you'll
bluff it out and pretend you love it.

CURRENT MAGAZINES
How to Bring Up a Dog


In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside appears an article entitled
Some Dog Training Hints for Chill
dren" The author says that there are
three things necessary for the success
full bringing up of any dog-a quiet,
pleasant voice, patience and persever-
ance He says that It is wrong to
strike a dog to make him obey except
in extreme cases. The animals intel
ligence is limited and if when training
him to do a. certain thing the voice
grows louder and louder the dog will
become confused, will cover down and
refuse to obey. If, however, you firmly
and without show of impatience re
peat over and over again what you
wish him to do he will gain confidence
and understand. In the following ex-
tract taken from the article the author
tells how he taught his dog to keep
out of the dining room, when the FAM
lily was at the table.
1T took exactly one luncheon hour
to accomplish this, but | made up my
mind in advance that my luncheon
would be more or less interrupted.
Before / went to the table set him
down firmly outside the door He
ran in as soon as / was seated and
tried to climb into my lap. 1 took
him and looked directly into his eyes
and said gravely: No, no, Pat and
placed him in the next room again
This performance was repeated more
than a dozen times, and each time he
looked penitent when | said No, no;
but | finally made him understand
that l had nothing against him, but
wanted him to keep out Now he sits
on the threshold during every meal
and never offers to bulge until snap
my fingers"

NABOB NEARS VEIN.
Three Shifts Are Now Being Worked
On Silver Cable.
(KellOgg NeWS)

Operations at the Nabob property
on Pine creek are progressing most
favorably, the interruption caused by
striking heavy flow Of water in the
main crosscut being of short dura-
ton. While the water caused con-
siderable trouble yet the indicatio ns
coming in with the change are most
encouraging to the management, as
hopes are strongly held that the ore
shoot is not far distant. According
to present surveys the 'V' group
vein is some 20 feet ahead, should
the ledge stand vertical If the dip
is toward the present work. as In
dictated in the upper workings, this
distance will be shortened and some
thing interesting may occur at any
time. If, however, the dip is away
from the crosscut the length re-
qured to meet the ore body will be
determined by the extent Of the
pitch The Work is going steadily
ahead and is being watched witt
keen interest by people Of the dis,
trict.

TO ELIMINATE THE FLY.
Breeding Places Must Be Destroyed to
Accomplish Results.
Idaho Health Bulletin

Unfortunately the public has not
clear understanding as to the proper
means by which flies may be elimn-
ated or reduced in number, or the
principle which is involved in this i'm
portant sanitary measure. Innumer-
able devices known as "fly catchers"
are offered for sale for the purpose Of
entapping or destroying these insects
and are very popular with the public;
however, this method has no practical
importance in eliminating the fly.
1t Is to be regretted that other i'm
practical methods are employed in this
direction; for instance, school children
are encouraged to destroy flies with
the promise that it will materially aid
in the elimination or reduction of
these insects, and prizes are given
those who kill the greatest number of
them. This Is not only of no practical
value but there are serious objections
to it, for it gives children as we'll "a
adults an incorrect idea Of the means
which should be employed in this
work, l. e., the removal or destruction
Of breeding places rather than the de-
struction of winged insects, for the
number thus gotten rid of is compare
lively so enthusiastically small that it
extends only fancied relief except al
the very beginning of the season; be-
sides, these various impractical meth
DDS do not tend to stimulate health au-
thorities to strictly enforce regulations
in the way of the removal of breeding
places and securing cleanliness about
the premises.
1t is very desirable that children as
we'll as adults shall take part in the
preservation of the public health, but
their educationein this direction should
be in harmony with the dictates of
modern sanitation. Everyone may
render valuable service in the elimin-
alton of flies and mosquitoes but aid
in this way comes from the detection
Of breeding places and efforts to Sc
cure their prompt removal and de-
struction.
