Goldsborough came up to the porch
and said. "Where's jack" cher hus-
band). She said he was up at Mr..

he had something to show her. She
said she didn't want to see it. She
was standing on a chair. He caught
hold of her wrist and her right breast
and then her chest as she jumped
down and tried to force her to the
floor. She struck at him with the
brush and screamed. Sam then made

might kill him. She then said she

QUEER AMERICAN IDEAS.
Minneapolis Tribune.l

When all is said, the average American citizen has queer ideas He don't want political par ties because there may be bosses; he doesn't want protective tariff because that may build up large business enterprises; he doesn't want free trade be- cause that makes business dull; he doesn't want large army because that would bring on miltarism
 He wants to think he build up the industries of the country without "aggregatons of capital, ? reducme the cost of living without depressing all values in agriculture and everything else lick all creation without any army and capture the trade of the world without goods to sell knowledge of how to sell them. Isn't it about time that we began to think outside of ourselves bit and realize that cannot have liberty without restraint nor eff ciency without effort sense without ex- ercising it?
 Of course, the people are not so much to blame for have not any number of candidates for high office of late years told them that they could have stringent regulations without interfering with any. one and liberal appropriations without taxes? It's time the American citizen settled down to the busi- of being citizen.

THE SENATOR'S ONE FAULT.

Senator Sulzer arrived in town last evening on his way to Juneau attend the Democratic convention that is to be held there shortly and to which he is delegate. Everybody knows the senator, either per sonally by reputation He has been here for these many years and everybody has good word for him. He is social and not the least pedantic. He is am- bilious but not the least selfish. These attributes found only in real man, and in mans daily life, they are invaluable.
 Now, if we take microscopic examination of the senator's apparently fawless character and connect him with the purpose that takes him to Juneau to- gether with knowledge of the characters of the men with whom he shall have to come in contact, their ambition, greed and whatnot, We stumble against a flaw in the senator's character that looms up big Mount Mckinley and precludes all possible chance for the senator do but repent at leisure for the trip he is taking This flaw that we believe have discovered however, to his advantage it may be- how ever it may be in his daily life, it is bound to become anchor in politics; and for the senator to stir up the political pot at Juneau with all those democratic sharks who trained political trcksters and interruptions to a degree, the senator has no more show to escape than jackrabbit would have with pack of hungry malamutes No, the senator hasn't ghost of show You see, the trouble with the senator is he is honest

WRONG KIND OF FODDER.
(American Economistl

When you come to think of it, it is not so very harsh reflection upon ardent workers in the Protection field to say that "appea to the belly" Samuel John son, more than hundred years aga, said:
 T look upon it. that he who does not mind his belly will hardly mind anything else"
 The man made mistake when he figured that shavngs would do very well for fodder when his horse got used to them, The trouble was that the horse died before he got used to them So is with Amricar labor and industry Feed them on Free-Trade shay. ngs and they will starve to death before they get to them Better start with Protection nourishment and stick to it.

Germany wants to reform England Villa wants to reform Carranza Japan wants to reform China, and so down the line Now come the suf- fragettes and other reforers and want to reform the world.

CALIFORNIA; VOTE.

California is the most execrated
state in the Union.
The Chicago Tribune recently said,
there was nobody home there, and
finished of the insult by calling h
the. a"boob" state of the nation. But
this is nothing to the wrath Of Gen
eral Harrison Gray Otis. owner Of the
Los Angeles Times. who dips his pen
in vitriol and proceeds:
Who passed the word, johnson
and Wilson down the line Of John.
sons adherents? How was the be.
trayal Of Hughes brought about? How
did It happen that Hiram johnson re.
ceived' majority of 100000, while
Hughes lost the state? What is need.

the official count. II conditions de-
velop then that suggest Irregularities,
the Republican party will take every
fair and legal method to contest Mr..
Wilson's title to the presidency.
California casts something like
100000 votes, or about one-sixteenth
of the popular vote OF the nation. In
such large vote, Wilson's lead Of
5000 is unusually close The change
Of few votes to precinct would
alter the result.
North Dakota and New Hampshire
both went into the Wilson column by
very close vote. New Mexico it
was believed, would be closer than
final returns showed. 1t is hardly
likely that any question will be rails.
ed in that state. New Mexicos vote
waived as recount possibility, min
imizes the chances of an investiga-
ton in New Hampshire or North Da-
kota, for without New Mexico, the
other two states would not alter the
result, even If errors were found sufti.
cient to put them in the Hughes COL
umn. North Dakota, New Mexico and
New Hampshire have total elect
oral vote of II, which, taken away
from Wilson, would give Hughes 267
and leave Wilson with only 264.
Had Hughes held his lead in all
these states he would have been
elected, despite California's vote.
Eleventh hour hopes, slight as they
are, then are pinned on the official
count in California.
