SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

Band wagons.
I'm afraid I might get over my head
When big brass band to a speech has
led.
But that mistake I've never made
When I simply followed the circus
parade.
When the air Is warm and the sky Is
blue
You may think most any old band
will do.
The results are not the same you know.
Cause a p'litical speech is a one-man
show.
I'll vote for the elephant and the clown
And the hosses who step out through
the town.
They're back each year with the same
display,
But the p'litical bands don't work that
way.
A Deadlock.
why do you refuse to discuss pro-
hibition2"
Because" answered Senator Sor-
ghum, the people out home don't care
enough about statistics to understand
economic theories on the subject. And
so far as personal inclination is con-
cerned, bootleggers have reprehensibly
made it possible for each person to
consult his own ideas"
Jud Tunkins says that boarding Is
the easiest bad habit he ever overcame.

Former Representative Benjamin F.
Focht staged a sensational comeback in
the eighteenth congressional district in
the keystone State in the congressional
primary last week. After having been
out of the House for almost a decade,
Mr.. Focht won the Republican nomina-
ton against Representative Beers by
more than a two-to-one vote. To be
exact, Mr.. Focht polled in the primary
I17835 votes to 8,276 for Mr.. Beers.
When he was in Congress before Mr.
Focht was widely known in the District
of Columbia, for he served at one time
as chairman of the House District
Committee.
The only real threat for q third, in
dependent presidential ticket seems to
come from the ardent lovers Of the
eighteenth amendment. II the Repub-
licans place in their national platform
a plank declaring for resubmission Of
the eighteenth amendment and the
Democrats do the same, some OF these
drys say they will launch dry ticket.
It might spill the beans for the G. o.
p, and that is what Is causing some Of
the Republicans cold chills up and down
the back. But third party with op-
position to a resubmission of the eight
eenth amendment would not, 1t Is de-
clared by other leaders, get far in this
year of 1882. It might succeed in put
ting into the White House wet Demo-
cratic President, If 1t made the defeat
of President Hoover certain. 1t could
not elect a President Of its own.
The result of tbs California primary
tomorrow will be given wide Importance

welt Of New York wins the preference

The genial Babe" Hayes is still keeping up his batting average in boosting Alaska He is in Seattle, much improved in health, but with the advent of spring weather he is feeling the impelling urge to re- turn to the Northland
 When you see Babe" talking to someone he is either visiting with a "Sourdough" or boosting Alaska to some prospective visitor to the North. You will find him at the dock when there is an arriving or departing Alaska boat meeting old friends and making new ones. Each boat that leaves for the westward is weakening the resist ance of Alaska's renowned good will ambassador, and in the claS- sical expression of the seafaring man, it is thought that Babe" will shove off" before long.
