Both the McNamaras, and all other
Bu?:h murderers, should bo put to j
death speedily.
I'nlon labor should not be saddled
with the sins of the McNamaras. It
was badly deceived by them.
II: may usually be taken for grant
ed that the man who Is long on |
promises will be short on perform
ances.
Whatever he professes to believe
the man who is glum and sour and
locks darKTy upon life has not got re-;
f?JjjrtonJ-?*hfl simply has bile.
. The man who speculates with thej
elm of getting someihing for nothing |
almost invariably winds up with get
ting nothing for something.
The action of Italy in Tripoli is an
Illustration of the bad old rule, "That
they shall take who havo the power,
and they shall keep who can."
One of the dynamiters, who con
fessed, says he got from one to five
thousand dollars for blowing up
buildings and bridges, according to
the value of the structure destroyed.
Who paid that money?
The confession of the dynamiters I
at Los Angeles, Cal., has given union
labor organizations a terrible blow.
They were basely deceived, but they
will suger all the same for their con
nection with the case.
No man can get away entirely from
his fellows, therefore it is not possi
ble to live altogether to oneself. Yet
there are some who nearly succeed
In doing it because , of. their lack of
fiower and energy. Practically they
Are nonentities.
In such had Odor are corporations
\*ecause of their Influence In politics
And the dishonest practice to which
many of them resort, it is safe to
?pay no political party will openly ac
,-cept contributions from that source
In the next presidential election. If
eny should be offered It will be "de
ttlued with thanks." .
What a sigh of relief Europe must
have heaved when the Moroccan ques
tion was at last settled.- it is now
disclosed that war between Germany
and England over the matter was at
one time perilously near. Tt Is well
for humanity and civilization that
ca:mer judgment and wise statesman
Ihip ultimately found the way out
In r i! the range of our modern civ
ilization there is no man so poor as
he who Is overweighed with prop
erty. He Is burdened down by It, he
does not know how to dispose of It
with best result and, as a conse
quence, he gets far less satifsaction
out of 1\ than the man of moderate
means, and probably less than the:
iuaa with no means at all.
The Editor of The Times and Dem

Conference, which was la session in

The making of money and saving
of money, as distinguished from the
miserly love of monoy which Is said
to be the root of all evil should be
the aim of all young men wto start
out in life for themselves. They in
clude habits or Industry that lead to
contentment and offen ward oT dSsst-,
pit*.ion, want aud future misery. It
was not the gathering In of wealth
f.hrt has sent sr> many leading mAn to
prison", it was the unlawful manner
Vilich they endeavored to reap luelr
harvest.

Wilson the Strongest.
Sam Blythe, the political writer for
the Saturday Eveni ng Post, published
in last week's issue of that periodical
the second of his series of three ar
ticles on the prospect for the presi
dential contest next year. His first
article reviewed conditions in the Far
We3t. His second article deals with
States east of the Mississippi river,
and his third article will deal with
the South.
Mr. Blythe has taken into consid
eration the probabilities as to nomi
nations by each party as well as the
probabilities as to the election, for
at this stage of the campaign, so
to speak, the two are inseparable. It
is iMr. iBlythe's oft-repeated opinion
that President Taft may be renomi
nated for the asking: the nomination
is his if he wants \t, and he wants it
now, and is apt to want it next year.
Presuming Taft is to be the Repub
lican nominee, Blythe concludes that
in order to win the Independent vote,
the vote that will decide the election,
the strongest, candidate the Demo
crats can nominate is Woodrow Wil
son. He does not discount the diffi
culty of nominating Wilson, on the
other hand, he points out very clearly
the difficulties and shows how the
Democratic leaders in certain StateB
are playing their cards to prevent his
nomination.
He names Murphy in New York
Hearst in IlllnolB and California, Tag
gart in Indiana, as some of the Dem
ocrats who are opposing Wilson. The
favorite son scheme is to be worked
for all it is worth, in the hope that
Wilson may be unable to secure the
three-fourths vote necessary to nom
inate in the Democratic convention.
It is to Wilson's credit that such
men are opposed to him.
But presuming the Democrats will
rsut up Wilson?or some other candi
date of. an Independent type, who
will present a contrast to Taft?
Blythe has concluded that Mr. Taft
cannot make sure of enough votes to
elect him. He would lose heavily in
every part of the country, and be
disastrously defeated should his op
ponent be Wilson says Mr. Blythe.
That is the way he sees it.
On the other hand, he thinks Wil
son would receive from the West and
Solid South nearly enough votes t?
elect him. He would lack only twen
ty, and Blythe thinks that with Wil
son and Taft as opposing candidates,
the Democrats would carry Wiscon
sin, Illinois and Indiana, all of-which
be classes as Eastern, as well as Mas
sachusetts, Maine and New Hamp
shire. These States have a total of
sixty-nine votes, which would give
the Democrats a majority of forty
nine. ?
As to New York and Ohio, the
chances are that Taft could carry
both as against Wilson, though he
would not have an easy time of it in ,
Ohio. The Columbia Record says
"Sam Blythe Ib a disinterested, im
partial and conservative observer of !
political affairs. His conclusion,
however, is hardly different from
that of any other intelligent student
of the political' situation, and that j
is that to defeat President Tt.ft, who .
will be the Republican nominee, the
Democrats should nominate Woodrow
Wilson."
? Shonld Let Them Alone.
If any effort is made by the Post
master-General to limit the adver
tising space in newspapers, to entitle
them to newspaper rates, he will
ralBe a hornet's nest about his ears.
There has been an altogether too
g-eat disposition by the postal au
thorities to interfere with the prass.
No one can question the desirability
of reducing expenses in the postofiice
department hut there are many ways,
other than Interfering with the press,
in which the reduction may well be
effected. The franking privilege
might be abolished with great econ
omy as to postage and printing.
As It Is the mails are sometimes
quite clogged with a lot of matter
that Is of no earthly use lo ninety
per cent of the people who get it.
Then, too. there is the annual dis- j
tribution of free seed which scarcely
anyone plants and which is a great
expense to the government. A very |
great reduction could also be effected j
by pa/lug less to the railroads tor)
the mail they carry. It is said tfcat
tho amount, riven to some of the
roads Is far in exoess of what tbe
3orv!ce rendered for transporting the
malls Justifies.
Any postal interference with the
revenue of newspapers from advert j
Using would be nothing le*? than a!
tax on knowledge. The expenpe for!
material and lnbor In publishing a j
paper Is. as everybody know?,
! greint. t5m It. could not nearly be met

Set of Ware
If you call at our store during our Majestic Demonstration Week and
allow us to show you the many advantages and superior qualities of
the Great Majestic Range, and will purchase one at the regular price,
we will giee you Free the beautiful and useful Souvenir Set of Ware
illustrated in this advertisement. This ware is made to match the
quality of the majes ic Ranges, and we know all ladies will see the
beauty and utility of this set, especially the first three pieces, which
are entirely new and cannot be had alone by purchase, except at a
very high price. The priees of Majestic Ranges are the same, but
we give the set FREE with each Majestic Range bought during the
demonstration week only.
Reasons Why The Great Majestic You
Should Buy.
1st. It has the reputation of being the best range money can buy.
2nd. It not only has the reputation but IS the best range made, and
we will prove this to you if you will let us.
3rd. It is construe ed of malleable iron, material j ou can't beat, and
of Charcoal iron, material that resists rust 300 per cent greater than
steel, is rivited togeiher air tight. No heat escapes or cold air enters
the range, thus uses very little fuel to do perfect work.
4th. The reservoir alone is worth the {.rice of range over any other
reservoir made. It boils 15 gallons of water; is heated like a tea
kettle, with pocket against left hard lining, and is movable and sets on
frame, hence cannot wear out. When water gets too hot it can be
moved away from fire.
Majestic ranges uie less tuel; heat more water?and heat it hot
ter; cost practically nothing for repairs; last three limes as long; bakes
better; easier to keep clean and gives better satisfaction than any other
range on the mardet. If you know positively that the above state
ments are true, wouldn't ycu buy a majestic at once?
Come in Demonstration Week and We'll Prove It to You.
One week only. No ware given after demonstration week.
