RESULT IN MAINE No SURPRISE
SAYS GOVERNOR COX

Weiser, Idaho. Sept. ii.-Gover-
nor James NJ. Cox, democratic pres
idential candidate who is en- route
to Salt Lake City, today made the
following statement on the Maine
election:
"The result in Maine is no sur
prise. The majority is accounted
for by the augmented vote. Repub-
lican national chairman Hays went
into the state early and that clearly
means that Maine was TO be pre-
pared as the pyrOiechnical display
for this campaign. But neither py-
rOtechnics nor money can win the
fight II will be decided outside of
Maine. In the 1916 September cleo
iiOn, the republicans carried Maine
and yet in November President Will
son carried thirty states and divid-
cd the electoral vote in West Vir-
ginia"

MAKE ATHLETICS A "GOn

The high school has organized a
foot ball team. and is practicing an
hour every afternoon. The indica-
tiOns are that the team will be one
of the best in the state. The most
pressing need of the BOYS right now
is a playing outfit for each player.
In order TO buck against such teams
as Dawson, Ration, and Trinidad,
they must be well equipped. The
Board of Education has devised a
means to enable the bows to get
their outfits and create an athletic
fund to make foot ball a go. The
board will permit them to collect
the poll taxes in the Clayton dis
lrict and use the money for athletic
purposes. A state law requires every
able-bOdied man to pay poll tax
of one dollar per year the money to
20 into the school fund Mr.. Kiser.
Clerk of the Board of Education.
has appointed five high school bows
as his deputies to collect the poll
taxes in the district. When the boys
strike you, dig up the dollar cheer
fully and help put athletics on a
good sound basis in Clayton. By
doing this you will be meeting a
legal requirement and moral Obli-
cation.

A CORRECTION

An article in our last issue car
ried the statement that the Cham
Der of Commerce here had collected
100000. This, of course. is a glar-
ing error. The. amount should have
read $1,000.
The linotype machine is a great
invention and performs the work Of
several hand cOmpOsitOrs, but Mer-
genthaler, the inventor, died of a
broken heart for the reason that he
could never bring the machine to
perfection.
The machines all differ. Many Of
them won't spell the words correct
ly, while others are so constructed
that it is nearly impossible to get
out an issue of the paper free from
mistakes of various characters.
And some Of the errors made
made by a linotype machine are
simply awful. Once we wrote an ar
ticle about a wedding; il was a nice
wedding, and a nice article, but
when The paper came out the article
read as follows:
The groom wore the 'confound-
ed black, and carried his slick
head in his hand"
To make the article worse. a "pi
line had been left in in correcting
the galleys, and one paragraph
read:

John Dickinson wrote the Constitution of
the United States with his own pen and hand.
The ground where the Rodney statue will stand
Rodney Square-was part of the Dickinson
farm. The fact that Caesar Rodney, of our Del
aware, signed the Constitution, and that John
Dickinson, of our Wilmington, wrote the sacred
document should be emphasized and repeated
until every child is familiar with it. The educa-
ton of all our children should be founded on it.
II should be the cornerstone of every edi6ce,

is the greatest document that ever came out OF

MARVELLOUS FEATS
DONE BY BEAVERS
Constructed Dam IL Feet High. n
Beaver Home OF Huge Pro-
portions,

The engineering featS of the beaV-
er are a matter of familiar know
ledge; but it will surprise many of
us to know that q single colony of
these industrious animals is capable
of constructing a dam II feet high
and a qparter Of a mile long. Yet
such dam was recently discovered
by a state game warden in a seclud-
ed spot along Taylors Greek, Bay
field county, Wis. Even the beaver
house at the centre of the dam is of
elephantine proportions, being l6
feet high and 40 feet broad at the
base. The sleeping apartment in
side the house is exceptionally
spacious for a beaver home, being
large enough for a tall man to lie
down at full length. The floor was
found to be covered with a dry sub
stance and was as clean as a whistle.
Evidently the beavers were looking
for long winter as large quantities
of food were found stored in the
house for cold weather use. Nine
beavers, an exceptionally large fam
lily, were living comfortably in the
house-the parent beavers and their
children.
Beavers are very like some peace,
full primitive race of people of peace
full disposition and few wants, in
dustrious and practical in their eff
fairs. and apparently depending
more upon reason and less upon in
stinct than do any of the forest
folks. Many OF their habits reflect
so much of intelligence that some
writer's credit them with possessing
real intelligence.
