WHAT THE EDITOR SAYS
It's wet ships and dry ships i
now
"Texas politics not yet clear."
What politics are clear? Answer
that.
The news reports said: "Tol
bert takes oath of office." What
is the oath of some men and
things worth?
Coley Blease is known as the
governor who turned the criminals
out. Wilsou. G. Harvey as
the governor who did not.
Tuesday November seventh is
election day. It is the duty of
all Democrats to vote just as if
the party candidates had opposition.
Tbat old Stillman case bobs up
every now and then. To the
eyes and noses of real decency
this case is so repulsive and offensive
that it should be buried
from sight. But then some other
sepulchral case would take its
place. Great is America.
The "Blue Nose" is the name
of the Canadian fishing vessel
that won the trophy cup over the
American vessel named "Henry
m . Ford." Now if it ftfld treeiT^Red

out first possibly. But the red
nose is not so prominent as in
days gone by.
Old Booze is writhing in its
. death struggle. It is doomed.
No one not even those financially
or bellyancially interested in ihe
. popskull stuff really believe prohibition
is a failure. The ver.v
f let that prohibition is fought ?<?
hard is evidence of its true worth
and its success. People do not
fight dead lions but real live ones.
Governor Harvy revoked tlje
parole granted by Governor <
Coooer to n, eonviefc .Inritro
Prince ruled that the governor
had no power to revoke the pa |
role and turns the criminal loose. <
Possibly the judge reasoned that
the convicts had little chance
of getting free by pardons or
paroles of our Law-and-Order i
governor and that he would help '
the ix>or misguided creatures a i
little. Well judge, the criminal
class think more highly of you i
now. No matter what we law- ]
and-order folks think. !
Some farmers and planters are ^
so prejudiced against what they
call "oook farming" that if the.v '
happened to read what they saw 1
was good farm doctrine, would
be slow to profit by it. What is 1
"hook farming?" It is the ex {
perience of men who know what 1
is what, many of them learning
from exj>erience. "Book farmipg"
is the farming that has di- !
rectly or indirectly revolutioniz- '
ed farming. Heal "hook farm- 1
ing" is farming from experience '
or knowledge derived from ex
perience and handed out to oth 1

WHO GAINED?
t
The recent coal strike cost *
$1,190,000,000 divided as follows: c
Wages of miners. $450,000,000, *
railroads in freights, $300,000,- 1
000, public in cost of fuel $400,000.000,
and mine owners, $40,- j
000,000. r
It is not hard to say who lost j
out, this will enable one to say t
who did not win. About the only t
class who can strike a balance is
that class composed of the miner's
union officials. They sit
back in their swivel chairs, draw 1
their salaries?fat ones too, chew (
the cud, while the laborers or *
iered out pay for the dance. 1
These fellows won, or at least did '
not lose.
Strikes should be made impossible,
and we believe this will
be done some day.
We have no doubtsthat some j
husbands are so mean and trif- j
ling that they need to be killed j
or disposed of in some other y
way, but we believe they sh<jpld ^
be legally disposed of by electrocution
or hanging and not lynched
by wives. One trouble about 1
wives taking the law in their I
hands is that it is establishing a
uaugerous precedent, ana there ?
is no telling where the matter
may end. It is possible.that the
innocent hnbby might suffer.
I
Is it any more harmful or any
more wrong for a young minister
just coming into the ministry
to use tobacco than it is for 1
an older one (in years or point of *
service) who is already in ser- i
vice to use the weed? The dis- <
tinctlon is not exactly clear to j
us as it looks like one and the <
same rule should apply in either <
case. If it is an evil in one in
, t
stance it seems to us to be an t
evil in the other It seems to us
to be hardly fair and consistent 1
to say to the recruits you must (
give up the tobacco habit and at 1
the same time those who make x
the ruling retain the habit. It ,
is just as hard for a man outside <
the sacred fold to layjaaidethe 1
habit as it is for one on the in- ,
side to clo so. A much better ef* i
feet would result if those making 1
?i... I.. i J i * 1
nn_- mw wuuiu uy way 01 example
first apply it to themselves. It
is, no douht a good tiling for all
ministers of the gospel to refrain
from the use of tobacco, as it
would be a good thing for any
other il'ss of men to be non usei
? ??i Si* weed. It is a useless
ai.tl ? \j oiisive habit and wise
aii. I't.'i iiuate is the man, minis- .
t< ! ?. ! (, nan who can say I do
it <?'.
n oikI.m why our lawmakers
cir. ;oi or do not make laws so
bh i 11 icy will hold water? There
is i: v a - ontest on between the
go. ji.or and the court This
dir..t! " m list go before the supr.
in*- otii t for settlement. Gov.
Ha: v \. believing he was within
his i *.r revoked the parole of
a criminal turned loose b.v Gov, (
Cooper. The paroled criminal i
had broken t.he condition of his 1
parole and is known as a bad and J
dangerous man. Judge Prince i
has now irpset the governor's 1
act by ruling that the governor =
had no power to revoke the paj
role, and frees the criminal who
had been arrested by order of
the governor. We believe Gov.
Harvey is clearly within his an- i
thorit.v and that a vast majority |
3t the pt'ople, especially the '
thinking people, of the state ar?
with the governor in this matter.
We believe the higher court will
sustain him. But going bade to
jur original proposition. Why
should it be possible for one departinent
of state to inter!?-re
with the work of another depart s
inert? Whv should it be p< si- ^
ble for a judge to make null .nd ^
yoid the work of a governor, >r,
/isft versa? I? the law at ff. It,
jr is the governor wrong, or * as
the judge gone beyond his u- c
thority? Why is it that laws lo
not so clearly prescribe tlie
rights of one officer ns that there
will be no meddling from an*

SLAIN BY GRIZZLY
Trapper Lost Out in Stand-Up
Fight With Forest King.
-rom Evidence It 8eemed That Animal
Had Been Taken in Trap,
but Had Broken Away.
Joseph Duret, pioneer hunter and
rapper, a inan who knew all the tricks
>f the game, was killed near Livingson,
Mont., recently by a grizzly bear.
Juret owned a nice ranch In the southern
part of Park county, Montana, near
he boundary of the" Yellowstone Nalonal
park, and he knew all the tricks
)f the huntiiig game, was well aware.
>f the danger of encountering a vie*
out* bear and yet he appears to have
lilted with death in trying to kill alone
i huge grizzly, and to have lost.
Duret caught the animal in one ol'
lis game traps?a huge steel device
hut fastened itself with n clamp about
he paw. He hastily returned hoinip
'or Ifis large-bore rifle and told hi*
wife of his catch. Mrs. Duret nevef
iaw him again. His failure to retard
prompted her to search the hills wjth
logs in vain. Then she appealed Ho.,
ifce Yellowstone par* rangtro.
They spread out over the country
tnd after a long search W. Hutchings.
issistant at the park buffalo corrals,
ind Ranger William T>ehnoff found
Duret's mangled body nearly two miles
from where he had engaged in a llfeind-death
struggle with the beast. It
was a wild, desolate place not ten
miles from Vhere Duret in 10i0, wus
introduced to and warmly greeted by
President Roosevelt.
Pieces of hair and torn flesh, rem*
isnts of the broken trap and a clawed
ind chewed rifle told the story of the
Igtat Duret made. Superintendent
Horace M. Albright of Yellowstone
park, who Investigated the old hunt*
f?r"a death, said the grizzly was a
veteran brute of the park for which
liunters had covered many a mile. It
ipparently had succeeded In breaking
sway from the trap after Duret flred
i ahot. It la believed the bear broke
ft chain which attached the trap to a
tree, then attacked the hunter, whose
rifle had apparently jammed.
It was apparent that Duret had
tried to defend himself by using his
rifle as .a club, but his fight was useless.
One arm and a leg were torn oft
and the body was mangled. It is believed
he became unconscious, then
revived after the bear had wearied
?f his prey and dragged away the
chain attached to the trap. Slgna indicated
that Duret managed to crawl
nhout two miles toward his home. The
rangers say he must have retained full
possession of his faculties, as he was
making n straight line to his ranch
?rhen doath overtook hlnrs.
