ONLY GULLS

Some campers at northern lake
once put a big fish on sloping rock
near the waters edge, to see what
the gulls would do.
A soaring scavenger soon spied it
and swooped for feast.
SEEKING the fish in his talons, the
Horacious bird tapped its great wings
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-07-03

and screamed greedily as he tried to
make off with his find.
But the fish was too heavy to be
lifted. The only result of repeated
attempts was that the fish began to
slide toward the water and soon fell
in with splash.
Diving after it, the gull brought it
to the surface, and then began a
curious spectacle. Time after time
the gull hoisted the fish as high as
his strength would permit, only to
weaken and let the fish fall again.
The noise attracted other gulls and
a battle ensued. First one gull and
then another would dive for the fish,
lift it part way above the waters sur
face and be set upon by other gulls
until the fish slipped back, sacri-
fee to jealousy and greed.
For almost an hour this struggle
lasted, ending only when all the guIls
were tired out. The prize was lost.
A fraction of the energy thus spent
in scrapping over an object too big
to handle would have secured for
each gull an ample meal of smaller
fish, with which the lake abounded.
Or, little cooperation instead Of
so much crazy competition would
have lifted the fish to a safe place
on dry land, where all the gulls could
have Toasted at their leisure.
But they were only gulls; hungry,
unthinking, gluttenous gulls.
OF course, men would have known
better.

10TH DISTRICT POLL TAXES.
Charlotte observer.)

In the fact that 1000 Democrats and
1000 Republicans in the tenth con-
gressional district will be barred from.
the polls by reason of having failed to
pay poll tax, the Western Carolina
Democrat sees certain the election of
Congressman Gudger. The disfran-
chisement of 5000 voters in one dis
trict surely ought to exert telling in
fluence on the result of the balloting.
and it is encouraging to know that the
advantage is so largely with the Dem
Gratis. The Observer has no sympathy
with the men who will lose their votes.
but if the result is to be as The Dem
ocrat thinks it will be, this paper read
lily gives expression to it's feelings Of
satisfaction with the situation in the
tenth.

Bearing out the rumors that with
the advent Of Carl r. Gray to the
presidency of the Western Maryland
Railway Company, succeeding J. M.
Fitzgerald, there would be many i'm
portant changes in the operating
staff OF the road, came the news Tues
day night that >. Ennes, division
superintendent Oh the Great Northern
Railroad, had been appointed general
superintendent OF the Western Mary
land.
The news came in IN Associated
Press dispatch from It. Paul, which
said that the announcement had
been made at the Office OF the Great
Northern. "a r. Merrick, at present
general superintendent OF the West
ern Maryland, was at his home in
Walbrook Tuesday nigh when asked
about the change.
II have not been informed Of any
such change" said Mr. Merrick. In
fact, the news is rather surprising to
me-"
Asked if he had any plans for the
future, Mr. Merrick said that he had
intended remaining In Baltimore,
but, if the report that he had been
supplanted by Mr.. Ennes were true,
he would, of course. have to change
these plans.
