MARK TWAIN IN HALL OF FAME.

Mark Twain has been elected to the Hall Of Fane' and those of us who may be fortunate enough agalh to visit New York will have opportunity to view his fiji tua.iean countenance wlthlh the collohaoe at Ini>l-f+. Heights alongside those of Wash ington and Jefferson and Jackson and Lincoln and Grant and Emerson and Irving and Poe and Long fellow and Cleveland-for Cleveland, too, has just been elected to membership in this galaxy of the Nations great It is not surprising that Mark Twain s selection place in the Hall of Fame was made on the first ballot and at the very earliest oppor- tunity The rules of the game make it so that one cannot be elected to the Hall Fame until he has been dead for ten years Mark Twain died in 1910 He had earned his place in history well that those charged with the election did have to wait a moment longer than the time prescribed to place him
 The country will applaud the promptness and un- animity of this recognition Not only do Americans love Mark Twain for his genius and good nature but they love him because he intensely Amer ican in his character and viewpoint. Perhaps Amer jeans have taken pride in the recognition ac- corded Mark Twain by the world at large than they have that bestowed upon any other American man of letters and is because there is not one of us who appropriate himself some of the honors That is so because Mark Twain essentially a composite American. He was and is the American spiri-thc spirit of kindly quaint semi philosophic. bubbling (sometimes boisteroGs) humor simple frank ness and genuine adherence of sham and hypocrisy
 We can almost imagine that when Mark face among the dgnitaries of the countrys past in that dignied and solemn place, shall be greeted with twinkling wink of the eye which will say as plainly words What do you think of the company into which they have wished me-" And shall wink back, and feel that the place has been lvened and humanized-yet suffered nothing in dignity and solemnity because of the silent exchange.

BOURKE COCHRAN BACK IN CONGRESS-

While the Democrats will be few and far between in the next Congress they will have who can speak for many. w. Bourke Cochran, one of the countrys most famous orators and picturesque char acters scored come back" by being elected to the National House of Representatives by 4000 plurality in a Manhattan district. Cochran started going to Congress third of century ago, but four times he lost favor with Tammany and left off the dele gaton Now for the fifth time he enters Congress again. He has served six terms in all, term the first time he entered the House, in 1S87 then Jan intermisson and two terms, rather prolonged in termission and term, then after short intermis sion two terms Then came absence from Con- that will have been for dozen years when he takes his seat in the next Congress for his seventh term. He is 66 years of
 Cochran became unpopular in Tammany for the third fourth time in his interesting career after lis election in 1908 and practically retired from politics But he again, often he had been in his lifetime, Tammany's spokesman at the San Fran cisco convention where he ranked among the stars of the first magnitude

 We know lots of men who get plenty of exercise by batting them selves on the back.
 The fellow who would rather lose friend than lose an argument dur, ing the recent campaign, now dis covers that he lost both.
 After man gets to be 70 years old he begins to realize how hard 1t is to make friends and how easy it is to make enemies.
 After a man has been married for a while he often wonders why he ever imagined he needed a wife.
 Our idea of a hopeless case is that of a woman who can't make herself look two years younger by spending two hours in front of her mirror.
 Most of the houses in the town look like they need fresh paint But few of the women look that way.
 Love may be blind after marriage. But it is different after marriage.
 A girl may put everything she has on her back. But she puts mighty little on her front

Popular Candidate for Governor.
(CordOXa Timse. ]

It must be most gratifying to George c. Hazeet, and it certainly is to his friends, to know that his candidacy for Governor of Alaska although launched less than week has met with such general favor throughout the Territory. The announcement that the Cordova Republican Club had unanimously Gorsed him the chief executive of this northland at it's meeting with instantaneous response from the party organizations and leaders in every section Of Alaska and they have wired their unqualified endorsement and cooperation in the to not only have Hr. Hazelet appointed but also confirmed next Governor.
 We congratulate the Republicans of Alaska upon their choice of candidate, which consider a most wise one, MT. Hazelet is undoubtedly the logical for the office. He is old-timer in the country has pioneered the unsettled sections is a successful and broad business of pleasing address, who has the force and ability discharge the duties of the office with credit to himself and his constituents, with enviable reputation for honesty and integrity. In fact he is a big for the biggest job in the Territory

The Wisdom of the Law

A digest of a recent law case 1oesn't make such dry reading For instance. the Michigan Supreme Court has just decided that the war Is still on. And it furthermore declares that a state of war will be legally peace.
 We also learn in the case of Tem pie vs. State, that the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals holds that where a man has been cheated out of money in a gambling game it is no crime for the loser to hold mp the winner with gun and take back the money out of which he was cheated
 In liquor case tried by the Su nreme Court of New Jersey we learn that the defendant, the Elite Socia Club, of Brighton. N J.. has it's "elite' quarters in the haymow of a livery barn
 The Supreme Court of Kansas also decides that a man who sells anothei man colored water for whiskey i; guilty of obtaining money under false pretense.
 The Supreme Court of Massachus etts has decided that when an em ployee is injured in a factory while he is holding a seventeen year olt girl on his knee during the luncl hour cannot obtain damages from his employer under the Employers Lid bility Act.

THE UNCTUOUS BRYAN.

William j. Bryan who lead the Democratic Party in cles in d dense wilderness for about siXteeI years and got anywhere, unctuously remark that President Wilson laid the foundation for Demo cratic disaster and Gov Cox completed the structure President Wilson lead his country for six year through the period of her greatest progress am growth and achievements For six years Gov Co: has been admittedly of the successful ant most popular Governors of great State which boast of her Gov. Allen Gov. Hayes, Gov. Foraker Gov Mckinley and Gov Harmon. Wilson and Cox hay their party actual accomplishments. But thel Mir. Bryan has most of his distinction by attack ing and making unpopular those of his partys leader who have been doers of things-men who served whi he talked
 Commenting upon Mr. Bryan's pronouncement, tn New York Evening Post, very appropriately, says:
 IL might surprise Mir. Bryan learn of the very different opinion of the Democratic standard bearer that is held by staunch Re publicans. A few days before the election the Evening Post received letter from well-known business man, who wrote in part:
 Although I am Republican who
 has never scratched the ticket and will
 not vote for Mr. Cox l have

 manner in which he handled questions

 during his service as Governor of Ohio This is the view Gov. Cox taken by per sons of all parties whose partsanship did bind them the facts was increasingly demonstrated throughout the campaign
 To suppose that his defeat must mean the end of Gov Cox as a political figure is to show small knowledge Of politics It would be a pity for a who has served one Of the greatest States in the Union as one of her best Governors to drop out of public life merely because he had been defeated for the Presidency. Both his party and the country need him. No one is more keenly aware that Senator Harding and Chairman Hays that the Democratic party has always been an considerable time in dying-only unlike Charles II, it never troubles to apologize for the delay The country would face the prospect of a Republican Administration so confidently if il believed that all opposi- tion Republican control at end and that had become party nation

Friends.
(Ford's International Wee

(Fords International Weeky.)
 short time ago London newspaper offered a prize for the best definition of "A Friend. Among the many thousand answers which received the that awarded the first prize
 The first person who comes in when the
 world goes out"
 The second prize given to the definition sent in by small boy, who wrote:
 "A friend is feller who knows all about
 you and likes you just the same
 Both of these definitions worthy of thought How many times has every needed friend ''when the world goes out through the death of loved one, the wreck of business the failure to achieves ones most cherished desires! In those ments, many whom have considered to our friends have fOrsaken With the loss of money so-called friends have melted away. With the cline of power and position those who have lattered and made believe that their friendship would be everlasting found among the missing. It is on those occasions that the first person who is ready lend helping hand, to breathe word of consolation in be he the acquaintance a day or of a lifetime, is true friend
 In these days of and hurry of moving from place to place as business other requirements may dictate, make many acquaintances, but few real friends, and man or woman advances toward mid de life the chance of making and tried friends diminish. It is those have known since childhood our schoolmates, our college chums first in business who are staunchest friends Never in the glamour of the who us with fair words and spacious promises but who fade away like mourning mists before the sun when storms of ad- versity arise, should let go of old and tried friend.
 shakespeace knew the value of an old friend when lie wrote:
 Those friends thou hast, and their adop-
 tion tried,
 Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel"
 Yes. the old friends arc the best-the efaer wbC knows all about you and likes you just the same"
