CHAIRMAN TOHULKA IS ADVISED.

There IS something almost uncanny about the
complaint from the reputed organ Of that Galaxy o.
P-uritists recently elected Mr.. Herman \.
bulka to IFS city Craftsmanship. incident to the com
Ink municipal campaign. And less quite uncanny.
is that organs advise. To rank outsider it reads
queer to say The least. Get this:
The method of Mr.. Tohulka's election is
such that it "a not calculated 10 induce the
most good feeling throughout the republican
party when IL becomes thoroughly understood"
What? Something rotten in the e. O. D. Denmark.
IS there; begun as TO the city campaign already?
And get this
a gigantic task is before Mr.. Tohulka and
one ;he satisfactory and successful perform
Of which demands keen insight into
human nature and a wisdom and judgment
that are more than ordinary. Probably he
knows the conditions that have existed in the
republican party the last two years well
anyone To correct them Is the right course.
To permit them to continue TO exist Is for the
city chairman 70 say that they suit him and
that he approves OF them in every way"
What can it be; what can it be? All, but Ibis ex-
plains Measure It well: 2s.f~
Mr. Tohulka's duty under these conditions
rs perfectly clear; If not to him certainly to
the majority Of those who have been close OBJ
for years past That duty Is the
restoration of complete harmony. thorough
derstanding and absolute good will throughout
the party in the city. Unless Mr.. Tohulka sees
this. unless ne proves conscientious effort to
correct the errors of the past and TO restore
harmony. good feeling unified working condi-
tions and complete understanding his
republican city chairman viii hardly be set
down In local POLITICAL history success"
The duty of the republican chairman seems to ne
silence party criticism OF the Carson administra
on. restore harmony and good feeling toward it.
and Of The administration toward the party organi-
z5tou. The method Of Chairman Tohulkas election,
whatever Il was seems to have resulted in the de-
of the city halls candidates for the job; there
FORE this necessity OF course. 1t rather rude.
It is the same old story the same program by
which Pros. Jeson was required 10 promise in ad-
vance hiS cooperation with the police department
o.. The city-the Carson police with all its rotten
uess-before ne could be assured Of the party
rgaus support The republican organization after
much the manner is now TO be coerced into
supporting Carsonism; that is. if harmony. good
feeling. unified working conditions and complete
derstaudine' IS 10 De restored.
We hope Chairman Tohulka has a good time. If
he can accomplish that task without besmearing the
whole party; sinking it to the low level which nc
asked TO subscrbe-he will be a political general
indeed.

More Truth
Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

PIKERS.
There wasn't any wave of crime
when Jesse James was in his
prime,
A man could shoot and roo and
loot
With little competition.
IN consequence the bandit game
brought easy wealth and wide
spread fame
To men OF James perverted aims
And criminal ambition.
Bold Buccaneers were very few when
Kidd the Jolly Roger flew,
The fact that he on many a sea
Pursued his dread vocation.
A few iefenceless galleons sank and
made the sailors walk the plank
Or had EN- shot, was all that got
The old mans reputation.
No gun men walked their evil ways.
in Robin Hoods dramatic days,
Whose burly forms appeared in
swarms
In city, town and village;
And that's the reason Mr.. Hood so
very easily made good
When he essayed the gainful trade
OF robbery ant pillage
If these three birds should strive to-
day TO make the modern world
their prey,
Despite the fame that clothes each
name
With bright romantic splendors
Their time would be extremely
short; they'd all be pinched and
hailed 70 court,
Although they might be let of
light
AS trivial offenders

SCIENTIFIC TEMPERANCE
 INSTRUCTION

The Star of Hope for the Temper ance Reform hung over the school house until generation was reared who wove this knowledge into na- tional constitutional prohibition. While this is written in our law, it has not the power to take away the appetite for liquor Succeeding gen erations must be taught that alcohol is poison, no matter in what form and not until the rising generation has attained maturity can we hope to have nation of total abstainers. So We must keep up our scientific tenn perance teaching. We must see that our law on this subject is held in tact, and that the teachers do their duty in teaching it. Fourteen states have Temperance Day in the public schools; in twelve, the day is named in honor of Frances Willard.
 We hope to have our legislature give us such day. In it's observ- ance, emphasis will be placed on the true nature of alcohol.
 Count that day lost, whose low descending sun, views from thy hand no s. T. l. work begun. Only in this way can we hope to hold what we have gained. -J. c. P.

The Ancient Writers.

The excellence Of the ancient writ
ers does not consist in a trick tina
can be learned, but in a perfect cdap-
tation of means to ends. The secret
Of the style of the great Greek and
Roman authors is that it is the per-
lection of good sense. In the first
place, they never use word without
meaning, or a word which adds
nothing to the meaning; they knew
what they wanted to say, and their
whole purpose was to say it with the
highest degree of exactness and com
pleteness, and bring it home to the
mind with the greatest possible clear
ness and vividness The ancients
were concise because of the extreme
pains they took with their epithets:
almost all moderns are prolix because
they do not. The great ancients could
express a thought so perfectly in a
few words or sentences, that they did
not need to add any more.-John
Stuart Mill.

HONORS NOT EASILY EARNED
Japanese WrestIers Who Rise to Fame
Are Deserving of the High Po-
sition They Attain.

Training for a Japanese wrestler
is not easy. The training of our col
lege boys for an athletic event is child's
play in comparison. 1t is not unusual
for a novice to be gashed and bleed
ing after being knocked about the
hard gravel Of a private arena. Young
students come out at on cold morn
ings and train until s. Their fat and
muscles are hardened by constant
ramming at wooden posts and their
heads are hardened by being pushed
vigorously against walls. Yet it is a
career any boy in Japan's villages
aspires to who throws more than the
average number of local rivals.
A champion today has $50 or 100
"hands" or devices at his disposal The
aim, worthy one certainly, is the
maximum of force with the minimum
Of disturbance. 4.e.,-.~
Wrestlers are classified into nine
grades, Of which only the first three
or four have professional Importance.
In each camp there are three leading
lights. The champion, the O-zeki, or
second champion; the Seki-waki, or
second assistant champion; the Ko.
musubi, the assistant to the second
assistant champion. The supreme
champion is called the Tokodzuna, but
there have only been score of these
since Japanese wrestling started iR
the prepagoda period.
