Local Politics

In Hand county there is a pro
gressiye or majority republican tick
ct, supporting Gov. Byrne and the
state progressive party. There is
also part OF a minority ticket, and a
couple of independent republican
candidates. From this list the re
pubIicans Of this county will select
their candidates who will comprise
the republican county ucket, to OPP
pose the democratic county ticket at
the November election, These a
didates are all worthy citizens.
Republicans of Hand county have
been peaceful for many years, set.
ting their differeaees-at coe&entf0i.
or primary, cheerfuIly accepting the
result, and then uniting on the tick
ct. This was a wise policy to pur-
sue, whether from choice or neces
sity. as results in the past have
shown. Sometimes the democrats
chased us so hard that it required
all the happy republican family
working together to pull the ticket
through.
Today the republicans have "A ma

tators of the state combat between
progressive and Stalwart leaders
they are not excited about it. Nor
will they become greatly wrought
mp over the contest for a county
tickeC. The majority ticket will
very likely be nominated at the
March primary, for very good rea-
sons, outside of any personal consid-
erati0ns. The great majority of
Hand county republicans are pro
gressive-in touch with the modern
progressive movement of recent
years. The county has 50 expressed
itself at each convention and prl-
mary held in the county during the
past eight years. 1t is unreasonable
to expect the republican electorate
of this county To reverse itself upon
measures and laws which are eX
tending and gaming a foot hold in
new territory all over the county
every year.
The republican party must be
committed to modern progressive
methods and measures in party
management and legislation, of fair
ness and justice to the masses OF
American people. to obtain their

rying the mine lantern and White
Eagle the hand axe and the ball OF
twine, they set out for the cave.
AS they nesred the entrance TO the
gorge a very big black cloud came
rushing up from the direction Of the
river, behind the town, passed swift
" on 70 the north, following the
course Of the gorge, and disappeared
in the mountains beyond the canyon.
A few minutes later the boys heard
heavy thunder from that direction,
but then the sun was shining where
they were and not a drop Of rain
fell, so they felt no alarm and mef-
rily went on their way
They had almost reached the
Witchs Kitchen when White Eagle
stopped suddenly and cried. Listen
Boys Get Frightened.
4 roaring, cracking sound came
from the upper end of the gorge,
faint at first. but rapidly becoming
louder White Eagle lost no time.
Run" he shouted. Run for your
life" And with the badly frightened
Tom in pursuit he dashed for the
Witchs Kitchen as fast as his legs
could carry him.
They got there just in time. For
at the very moment they reached the
cavern door d great wall Of waite

gorge. tearing away trees. tumblin

noise that it seemed 70 the boys
