up there but no husks Senator Shermans views on Cuban -liberty and Hawaiian annexation were eminently sound Secretary Sherman should hunt them out of the Congress ional Record and commit them to memory That young Kansan who was carried away by his enthusiasm and landed in a Spanish dungeon has doubtless found a diet of salt codfish without water a great deal more droughty than even the and plains of his native state Col Mary Ellen Lease has emphati cally declared to a reporter of course that there is no truth in the rumor she has been urged to run for governor of Kansas and that moreover the only - office on earth she could possibly be in duced to accept would be the interior portfolio Considering that nobody has asked Mary Ellen to run for any thing it looks as though she

its taih The Ainsworth Home Rule unkind ly remarks that Some rattlesnakes carries their rattles in their mouth some in their vest pocket but this one carries eight rattles on its tail and the Longpine Journal wants to know df rattlesnakes usually carry their rat Ales on other portions of their anatomy This is unkind We knew the eru dite editors of the papers mentioned knew where the rattles were usually carried but TnE Democrat being essentially family newspaper its edi tor deemed it wise to state exactly the part of the snake upon which the rat tles were found in order to instruct its more
