them the support of at least very
large majority of parliament. 1t would
be impossible for either Giolitti the
retiring minister, after the bitter re-
examinations of the last fifteen days,
to win such support. Consequently it
is argued the king proba bly, will
choose a new cabinet composed of men
who have not taken part in the heated
exchanges.
Another suggestion advanced is that
the day has arrived for the formation
of a great national cabinet similar to
that of France, a ministry to include
the leading figures of all parties, to
which there shall be entrusted the mo-
mentous decision now before the
country. at4. s=&T

Nothing New.

Some time ago the phrase Nobody
home was given wide circulation. 1t
referred to a person without brains.
But it wasn't new. Alexander Pope,
a poet of some repute, invented this
bit of slang many years ago when he
said:

will come;
Knock as you please, there's nobody

SONG OF THE HOME BUILDER

SONG OF THE HOME BUILDER
Prophets often without r where they
should be best known;
Some goods seem more attractive
when a foreign labels shown;
Wen admit mail order catalogues will
oft beget a wish,
For one must use a shining bait to
lure the wary fish;
But IL you really knew which side
your bread was buttered on,
You'd do your trading here at home
with Frank or Bill or John;
You'd find their goods were honest,
and you wouldn't have to wait
So why not p~atronize your friends who
don't charge any freight?
These other merchants out Of town,
do you suppose they care
A jitney for the little burg, or ever
do their share
Towards building roads, supporting
schools, or paying in their tax?
No more than do the peddlers with
their little cheap-john packs;
Their only interest in you Is quite
pecuniary;
With your dollar in their pocket they
care not a rap for Tucumcari.
Just think Of this next time before
you go and shop by mail,
And give Prosperity n chance to camp
upon your trail.
"See and Examine" Safety First
Let these your slogans be
Give them a chance, and Hometown
goods will suit you here in T.

TEN COMMANDMENTS

The following ten commandments
for cleanliness were promulgated by
the Pueblo, Colo, Commerce Club.
Dirt in the houses, the stores, the
diaries, the yards, the streets and al
leys results in death for the babies
from summer complaint and for the
grown people from typhoid. In a
clean town the standard Of behavior
Is better. There is a better public
spirit. Hence these commandments
/. Thou shalt locate, report and
abolish all public nuisances.
2. Thou shalt not spit on the side
walks or in any public place or con-
veyance.
3. Thou shalt remember that filth
breeds flies and that flies make the
funerals.
4. Thou shalt not sweep thy side
walks in the business section after
half-past seven in the morning.
g.. Thou shalt not throw tin cans
nor rubbish in any back yard, vacant
lot, or alley.
6. Thou shalt provide a covered re-
ceptacle for all manner Of house and
stable refuse.
Z. Thou shalt gather and burn all
sorts Of coinbustible rubbish.
8. Thou shalt not haul refuse in
leaky or overloaded wagons.
o. Thou shalt wage continual war
fare on weeds, dandelions and untrim-
med trees.
10. Thou shalt ~whitewash or paint
thy buildings, and thou shalt keep thy
premises constantly clean.

Scheduled Tomorrow Mornina'

The opening guns OF the Prohibition

Auditorium Two OF the forty-two
Icenumeter type win be heard at the
frst session. One of these for several
years the liquor tariff of this state
had TO reckon with, in the person OF
HON. It. NJ. Hare, who was superin.
tendent of the West Virginia Anti
Saloon League when West Virginia
voted dry. The second speaker Of the
evening will be the-once distinguished
evangelist and the now Just as dis.
tinguished prohibition speaker, Rev.
Sam Small of Georgia
Aside from the appearance Of Gov
ernor Hatfield on Wednesday after
noon at 2 o'clock a feature Is attract
Ing any more attention than the Hall
summers dialogue debate. scheduled
for 1890 Wednesday forenoon. Taken
by surprise has been almost every
audience before this unique team has
ape pared. The scene OF this dialogue
debate Is laid In the office OF a gem
tiemanly Christian-professing LIQUOR
Incense commissioner. and Tom O'Neill,
an lrishman who does not want his
name spelled O'Neal. engages in a
conversation concerning his liquor
license, which he chooses TO call his
policy. Taking exception to this,
the license commissioner endeavors
" ShoW " WE'LL tndt his Incense is
not policy by defining a policy as
something which indemnifies against
loss. The quick-witted O'Nefll then
takes this as his cue, and by driving
home with great dramatic power the
protection that he gets as a saloon
keeper because OF his license. at the
same time soundly berating the IT,
cense commissioner because of his
hypocrisy, the license commissioner Is
led to see the folly OF his ways.
Governor Hatfeid's appearance at
p. m. wednesday will be the signal
for large audience anxious to hear
what announcements he will make
as to the enforcement of the Prohibi-
ton Law, especially in Wheeling.
Many strong-arm blows are expect
ed to be struck for Prohibition IN this

Fred o. Blue. in his address at the

tration will be afforded at the Wind
sor Hotel, which is convention head
quarters, and also at the Market Au-
ditorium, beginning with this evenings
