UfcLKXA. Mont.. Jan. . (Special.)
The trctlurlll situation shows a de
rided tendency today toward the elec
tion of ;orernor Kdwtn l Norrla as
Tr.omas II. rrter" utcior. It Is
generally believed that neither Walab
nor Conrart will secure the tout, the
former becauee of corporation opposl

that, while he has acquired a fortune.
I;e Is hardly what I desired respecting
senatorial qualifications.
In confluence, the stock of Norrla

while not an avowed candidate. he
would accept. If elected. The only ob

over to a ItrpuMlcan. but. as all his
appointments cover the period of two
years, little political capital would be
lost.

Fame time preserves and maintains the

"Under oar constitution such liberty
we possess in New Tork. It must be
our constant aim to so strengthen and
extend the exercise of the personal and
inalienable righta by the Individual as
to bring to the state the greatest
growth and highest development of
w'ech our citizenship and resources are
capable.
"I am suecedlng to the Governorship
-when, business training and understanding-
seems absolutely essential to the
proper administration of public affairs.
"Great as are the public resources of
ottr commonwealth, expenditures and
outgo have grown In a measure out of
all proportion to the revenue of the
state and we seem committed to aa out
lay which will not alone tax to its full

hv the erfenrim of Mrs. Vaughn

The widow appeared unconcerned wnen
she understood that she waa no longer
held on a murder charge.
Poison Expert Absent.
The inability of Dr. Paul Schweitser,
of the State University, the prosecution's
poison expert to be present, was the rea
son for the reuest for a continuance.

this effect, and Dr. B. B. Clements, of

JOHN D. GIVES AWAY ADVICE
Oil King Says Vso Mistake as Foun
dation, for Success.
NEW TORK. Jan. 2. "Forget your
mistakes and failures of the old year and
start the new year anew."
This was the New Year's counsel of
John D. Rockefeller, Jr.. to his Bible class
In the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church:
"Forget everything that is futile and
depressing," said Mr. Rockefeller, "and
begin 1911 with hope and courage. The
beautiful prayer of the Episcopal Church
says we are all miserable sinners, but
let us ask for forgiveness and forget
when we have once recognized our sins,
them. I can see no good In pitting In
sackcloth and ashes and brooding over
them.
"As for our failures, let us turn them
Into the foundation for our success. The
dividing line between failure and suc
cess may often be simply the width of a
hair.
"Have a definite purpose and stick to it.
Aim at self-mastery. Don't eat what is
! not good for you; don't drink what is
I going to harm you. Be master over yourself."
