thousand pounds-and the power of
those terrific muscles was beyond the
wit of man to estimate.
Ivan had never been in greater
danger, nor was such conceivable
The two natives on the hill above
instantly gave him up for lost and
fled desperately, lest the enraged
bear should turn on them. And in
Pete's mind two thoughts flashed
like rockets--one of the white, pure
brilliance of a star, the other so
strange and sullen and red, like the
sun seen through the smoke of a
forest fire, that it seemed beyond
tho pale of heaven-born mankind.
At that instant Pete knew surely
that he had only to hold his fire, and
his 9yes.
No blame could be laid on himself
for failure to stop the charge. He
had but one shell in his gun, and he
might have sore need of that in his
own defense From the position in
which he stood it was a doubtful
shot at best, not because he could
not hit the great form of the bear,
but because likely he could not
reach her vitals. Ivan was firing
desperately With his pistol, and mad
dened by many minor wounds, it was
wholly probable that the bear would
turn toward Pete after she had

CLEVELAND, June 12-Before
reaching the nomination of candi-
dates the new management of the
Republican party took further steps
to tighten their grip on the party
organization. Complete control Of
the rules committee with the excep-
ton of the Wisconsin members en-
able the Butterflies to change the
rules as to prevent roll calls I'M
less there are at least six States
in revolt against the bosses.
While heretofore any two States
could force a roll call and put the
delegates on record, it now requires
six States. in this convention
Wisconsin would have to have the
support Of five other States to
force a roll call on the Wisconsin
platform. It was also made easier
to lay a minority report of the COM
mittee on resolutions on the table
and shut off debate.

In that case the guides only hope
would lie in saving his one shell for
a shot between the glowing eyes or
into the throat at close range; there
would be no time or chance to pro
cure other shells from his pocket
and reload his rifle.

West Shut Out

The attitude of the Massachu-
sets new management is that there
cannot be two Republican parties,
one in the East and another in
the West. So with East in the sad
die the western Republicans are
coldly invited to go off by them
selves if they refuse to submit to
party discipline.
The meaning of Temporary Chair
man Burton when he said the Repub-
lican party did not have a majority
in the present Congress was that
the western group of Congressman
in both houses who controlled the
balance of power are to be out
lawed as Republicans. That is, a
Congressman can not be a member
of the agricultural bloc or any other
bloc and at the same time be rec
ognized as a Republican.
The delegates themselves have
made it plain by their applause that
they are in full sympathy with the
Butler policy of efficiency first.
There has been no comfort for pro-
gressives or insurgents in any of the
speeches. Theodore Burton is rec
ognized as a thoroughly conserva-
tive Republican and permanent
Chairman NIondell is admittedly in
the hard boiled class.

Sheriff. SCORES
ROW-HOUSE TYPE
Declares Beauty of Capital Is
MARRIED by Long Lines
Which ''Spring Up" Rapidly.

Some faults which have stood in the
way of identifying the National Capt.
tai were outlined to the Twentieth
Century Club at it's meeting at 1854
| street this afternoon by Lieut. Col.
Clarence o. Sheriff., United States
Army Engineer Corps. officer in
charge of public buildings and
grounds. Col. Sheriff. said that the
creation of various official commits
sions were not on the way to correct
such evils as the building of row
out of the natural landscape by level
ling the hills and valleys as is done
in Chevy Chase.
Col. Sheriff. first pointed out that
the Capital of the Nation is the en-
hodiment of its greatness and here in
America we have not yet learned
this important fact. with the result
that the seat of the National Govern
ment has suffered and the regard of
the people for their country has often
times been slight, due to the lack of
pride in its Capital"
Hits Row Houses.
After telling of the foresight. of
Washington and Jefferson in select
ing the site for the capital, and out
inning many of it's natural beauties,
Col. Sheriff. continued:
However, as much as there is in
Washington of the beautiful. the at
tractive, the inspiring. II is still pain
fully true that there is much of the
ugly the disorderly. the destructive
elements in it's makeup.

Hopes for Future Betterment.
The present condition, he pointed
put, was due to the fact that the plan
OF L'Enfant provided only for the ex-
tension as far as Florida avenue, and
when it grew beyond that there was
no set plan. This led to the creation
Of the Highway Commission, which
however. had no control over bui d.
ing operations. The result, he said,
has been that little attention was
paid TO hills and valleys and the ave-
nues and streets, such as Connecticut
avenue leading to Chevy Chase. were
made perfectly straight in deep cuts

We would suggest that if the coun-

building of roads between Clarks
Fork and Cody that can be traversed
in the winter. The Skull Creek di-
vide hill is now so laden with snow
that it is necessary to shovel out trails
for the pack trains to go over. Right
now the commissioners could lay out
