serled his wife and children and
took up with a rich young woman
with whom ha made a trip to Eu
rope and now attempts to defend
his career by denouncing civil
marriages as criminal and a tolio of

pops in Cuator county who will not
lake kindly to the leadership of
Mr. Horron in socialism , which is
to bo the successor of populism.
Mayor J. A. Harris has boon ap

al Joo. Soon after being elected
to the position of mayor he was
appointed a delegate to the Miners
Congress at Boise City , Idaho.
Thin third recognition confers upon
him the title of Colonel and will ou-
able him to bo in evidence upon all

The Now York Tribune is aulhonty
for stating lhat the liquor traffic oosls
more ovcry year than our whole
civil service , our armynayy and con
gress including the river and harbor
and pension bill , all wo pay for
local government , all national , state
aiid cuuutdulb ? , And all Ihe schools
in the oounly. "In loot , " says tin
Tribune "ihiu country pays more
for liquor than for every function
for every kind of government. "
And the Union Signal addc , "Two
million of our hoys , iho boy * of
thii ) nation muni bo nolectod out of

thousand bloated drunkards that
lave been drawn forth from the
streets and burial wilh the burial of

Ho Idroge Citizen ( rep ) : Governor
Savage Uas given oui in positive
aoguage that "soft snaps" must go
and that people who are tilling them
nuifit get out of thorn and do some
work for a living. This is as it
should be , for there ii no more rea
son for thu state having positions
for people for whom it has no work
than for 'private individuals lo
employ more in on than they need.
t is too common in official life lo
> rovido position for some favorite
who has done some work for iho
> arty or demands HOIIIO recognition
for Bomo reaton. This seems to
lave boon prevalent under the late
idministraliou in this stale and it is
to bo hoped that the present govern
or will stick to bis announcement
uid clean out the useless hangers-on
on the pay roll in our state inmi-
tulions
A number of popocratio papers are
nourning over the decision 'of the
supreme court in the oases brought
o decide the status of our newly
acquired possessions. They mourn
) ouaiido said decision leuvos thnrn
no ground to stand on in their de
nunciation of the MoKinloy admin
istration. The decision was en
tirely non-partisan , and will bo ac
cepted by ihe people as final. The
efforts made to distort the findings'
as being contrary to the fund-
amonlal principles ot this govern
ment will find no favor among the
intelligent people of the nation.
The fact is that wo bavo merely
taken one more Flop in expansion
which bas been going on since the
union. All in good time these
people who have boon taken under
the fold of the stars and stripes
will be given a voice in the govern
ment of which tiioy are now a part.
This' ia a groal big liberty loving
nation , and iho people will see lo it
that justice h dono. It is the
height of folly to presume that any
one , even had they the desire , could
estitblinh an empire in this nation.
The people rule , and they will , on
every proposition , oyontually do
the right and just Ibiug. Albion
News.
Under the new scheme the
fusiouists of this county has adopt
ed to nominate their oandidats
for county offices the present in
cumbents has cinch. The names
of the candidates is to bo Huhmitt-
ed to the primaries and those re
ceiving u plurality of votes are to
be itndorsod by the convention.
The plan is apparently HO fair that
it would appear that everyone has
an equal chanco. But "all in not
gold that glitlors. " It will bo a
tight of the office holders against
the field. Any shrewd oQico holder
who , in his capacity , comas in con
tact every day with men from
every locality in the county can by
this initiative and rofrondum
sahomo quietly and secretively set
enough strikers lo work to defeat
the most popular man in the
county in any party , Insome lo
calities there will be local candi
dates lhat will gt some aup-
port.but tboy will not stand a ghost
of a show with the follow who is
in office and who can moot hiu lob
byist from time to lime without ap.
parent effort and thus have every
primary packed to hia entire satis-
faction.
With a party out of power there
would not bo the same objections to
the plan , as each oandidalo would
then be on equal fooling and merit
would have some weight in the
contest. Bin onoo in otlioo , by the
initiative scheme the fusionists
propose to adopt , the oilioers can
perpetuate themselves in 'otlloe as
long as their respective political
parties are in the majority. For-
lunalely , however , for the public , a
nomination ibiis scoured , is not an
election in Cimler county. The
people will hnvo a say when they
roach the polls next November and
if we oorreolly judge the metal of
which the majority of voters of
Cuslor county are made , they will
nol endorse oandidales who thus
secure their nominations by packed
primaries.
The President's Veto ,
President MoKinloy has put bib
veto on the third term talk that has
boon going the rounds for the past
two weeks , in a public announce-
in out thai has no uncertain sound.
Ho not only declines to be a oandi
dale for a third term bul positively
refuses lo accept tbo nomination if
tendered him.
The following statement was
given out Tuesday at Washington :
"I regret that the suggestion of
a third term ban been made. 1
doubt whether I am called upon lo
give it notice. But there are nevi
questions of tl'e gravest importance
before the administration and Iho
country and their just consideration
should not bo prejudiced in the pub
io mind by even the suspicion of
the thought of a third term. In
view thotoforo , of Iho the reiteration
of tbo suggestion of it , I will say
tow , onoo for all , expressing a long-
settled conviction , that I not only
am not and will not bo a candidate
"or a third term , but would not
accept a nomination for it if it worn
tendered mo.
My only ambition is to serve
through my second term to tbo ac
ceptance of my countrymen whoso
generous confidence I so deeply
appraoiato and thru will ) them to do
my duty in the ranks of private
citizenship
