When a Jesting friend mentions Salt river to a candidate the seeker for public favor shudders. To him Salt river I -erious business. It spells bitterness and defeat. Every American schoolboy speaks of Salt river during political times as what is going to happen to the fellow his father isn't going to vote for. Yet how few know that there really is a Salt river, that Its hlBtory has a page In it that Is connected with the name of Henry Clay, one of tha country's greatest statesmen, but wJioae; career -was marked with stinging de-feats. To him Is credited the record of having established the precedent and put 'tlng Into action the unwritten law that all defeated candidates be required to go up Salt river to a deserved oblivion. Old-timers In tho Btne setting of. the old Salt river tragedy than. Is said to have wrecked the lifo of Chiy declare that the story of his Journey up Salt river 'on the very eve of the electi'oh is ' true, that) he really was towed: up Sail .river by an antt-Cfay boat man who had promised to take him to Louisville: In tfme to permit him to deliver a closing speech In his campaign. Henry Clay's Trip. The best story of Henry Clay's disap pointment and Its effect on' American poll tics Is told by Captain "Ring" Helm. th old negro ferryman, whose boat plies the mouth of Salt river at West Point, Ky., twenty-one mllea from Louisville, on the Illinois Central road. West Point Is a con. fluence of the Ohio aqd Salt rivers. "Yes, ah, dey Is a ole anicdote 'bout Mistah Henry Clay glttln'' hlsse'f sent up Salt rlvah whilst he wui a-runnln' fo' president, an' how he nevah did git ovah beln' heartbroken: yes, sah," Captain Helm relates to every stranger that walks, slides, flies or tumbles down the steep Bait river bank to his old-fashioned, sweep-oar ferry boat, that the patrons facetiously call tho Stung, because of its reputation as a craft that . pilot defeated candidates up Salt river to the despised oblivion. "Co'se hit may not all be dls as true as Gospel," . the , somber-hued but good natured ., old ferryman goes on, "but a good many olo folks whut has ben'llvln' 'round de p'lnt heah fo' a good many yeahs says'-dat hit Is mos" suttlnly true dat Mis tah Henry Clay did git In some bad com p'ny heah bark In de '40s an' got steered cleah offn his o'ose. . How come hit so was lak dls: Mistah Henry wuz a-gwlne up de rivah td Loui'vtlle to a speakln' an' to git home to vote, an' all to once he miss his boat an' has to walk or tek a skiff. Waal, somewhah down heah about a he hired some man who wuz ag'ln him to row him to Loul'vllle, not knowln' dat de man wuz ag'ln him.

"Just like Mr. Bryan isn't?" the passen ger always asks after "Ring's" prophecy. Then the olj negro cackles and gives his oars long, easy sweeps. "No, sah, I 'spec I gwlne to git Mistah Bryan fo' a customah 'bout, Kovembah de fou'th day aftah 'lection," laughs the Salt river boatman. "Yes, salt, Mistah Bryan an' Mistah Kern comin' down heah fo a little boHt rldo with ole' Ring Helm sho's yo' born." . . "You must be a republican. The belief seems to prevail throughout the country that the boatman , on Salt river play no favorites." "Oh, I aln' so awful nasty 'bout politics, same time I . got my favor-ltes. Mistah Taf look mighty good to me. Co'se yo' can't, always sometimes tell, an' If Mistah Tar come heah . to Salt river fo' a boat ride he mos' sho'ly will git a pleasant trip an' ole Ring sutinly do know whah de bes' .chicken fries am located up dls rlvah.

Friends of J. Cook Johnson, who was for ten years engaged in the fancy poultry business In Omaha, are congratulating him that the federal authorities have, after two years of Investigation, decided they had no case against Mr. Johnson, and as . a re sult came to the conclusion to strike out tho Indictment, which has been pending from tho federal, docket. Mr. Johnson was an active young busi ness man, who had established a fancy poultry business. Practically his entire life has been spent In this city and it was with the earnings of a number of years that he succeeded in building up to a profitable point this business. It came with much surprise in the fall of 1906 the announcement of the return of a federal Indictment against Johnson for Im proper use of the malls. Mr. Johnson fought the preliminary stages of the prosecution with unusual vigor, securing a temporary injunction against Postmaster Palmer forbidding the local authorities from tampering with his mall., This waa one of the few instances where a federal judge had ever granted a temporary injunction in a caae of this kind. The decision waa given by Judge Krleber of Arkansas, then sitting In this district. In the meantime the poultry buainega of Johnson had been so Injured that he thought it best for the time being at least, to. dispose of fcl Interests, which ib done. Johnson has always maintained that the Indictment waa the result of a conspiracy extending over sv period of several years, behind which were two or three magasine publishers, whose advertising columns he refused to um in the promotion of hia bualness. He has always courted a thorough Investigation Into hia business methods and hia dealings with his custom ers, giving the postofflce authorities full play In digging Into his bualness relations In order that they might ascertain the truth or the falsity of the charges against him. Mr. Johnson has always considered tha postal authorities innocent parties In the Indictment secured agalnat him In 1906. Mr. Johnson he been occupied for the laat two ye&ra In making a vigorous fight to regain his position in the business world and has In a measure succeeded. HI present field, that of un advertising expert, has -been exteneded to cover ad vertising service throughout tha country. In addition to the handling of a number of accounts for Omaha firms. Mr. Johnson saya ha ia at liberty to enter the poultry buetneea at any tiro that he chooees should ha so decide. is heated by old-fashioned methods. If everybody used IDEAL Boilers and AMERICAN Radiators our country's annual savings in coal would simply be colossal, to say nothing of the increased comfort, the health protection, conven ience, cleanliness, and lessened caretak ing that each family would enjoy.
