THE LION WAITED TO BE
KILLED.
The following is Roosevelt's own
story in Scribner's, of how he killed
his lirst lion in Africa. It is interest
ing, indicating how the whole game
has been for the benefit of Air. Roose
velt and his stories:
At this moment my black sias, Sim
ba, came running up to me and took
hold of the bridle; he had seen the
chase from the line of march and had
cut across to join me. There was no
other sias or gun-bearer anywhere
near, and his action was plucky, for
he was the only man afoot, and the
lion at bay. Lady Pease had also
ridden up and was an interested
spectator only some fifty yards be
hind me.
Now, an elderly man with a varied
past which includes rheumatism docs
not vault lightly into the saddle; as
his sons, for instance, can; and I had
already made up my mind that in the
event of the lion's charging it would
be wise for me to trust to straight
powder rather than to try'to scramble
into the saddle and get under way in
time. The arrival of my two compan
ions settled matters. 1 was not sure
of the speed of Lady Pease's horse;
and Simba was on foot and it was of
course out of the question for me to
leave him. ' So I said, "Good Simba,
now we'll, sec this tiling ' through,"
and gentle Symba smiled a shy appre
ciation of my tone, though he could
not understand the words. 1 could
still sec the lion when I knelt, but he
was now standing up, looking first
at one group of horses and then at the
other, his tail lashing to and fro, his
bead held low and his lips drooped
over his mouth in peculiar fashion,
while his harsh and savage growling
rolled thunderously over the plain.
Seeing Simba and mc on foot, he
turned toward us, h's tail lashing
quicker and quicker. Resting my el
bow on Simba's bent shoulder, I took
steady aim and pressed the trigger;
the bullet went in between the neck
and shoulder, and the lion fell over
. on his side, one foreleg in the air. He
recovered in a moment and stood up,
evidently very sick, and once more
faced me, growling hoarsely. I think
lie was on the eve of charging. I fired
again at once, and this bullet broke
Ins back just behind his shoulders;
and with the next 1, killed him out
right, after we had gathered round
him.
H NEW YORK'S EXAMPLE.
y
There is prospect of the banish
ment of boss rule in New York city.
It is time. For years the city has
been disgraced by boss government.
The city has been robbed by men
back of the government, elected to
nothing themselves, yet receive graft
from, the public treasurer, and dictat
ing appointments by the wholesale,
systematically robbing the city of mil
lions. The indications arc that this
mav ston. The mavor is a member
of Tammany, but he declares that he
.will run things himself. The position
he will be in may compel him to do
so, because nearly all the other men
elected are members of other parties,
making a check on the old plan of
graft. New York's graft system has
been a menace to the whole country,
an infamous example that has been
followed in many places. It will be
a great thing for the whole country
if there is a reign of decent govern
ment in the leading city of the Coun
try. ED. SCHOEL, OF ALBANY.
From the Oregon Agriculturalist:
Most of the papers of the country j
are taking note of the winnings of the
gentleman whose name is at the head
of this article. !
Well, we have known Ed. Schocl ,
' for a good, many years now, and we .
knew from the first that Ed. would
make good. He has shown every year1
since lie has been in the business I
the business of farming and the kind
of farming that pays, and he is mak- ,
ing it pay. He came back from the
Fair circuit with a total of $!2.)1.50,
this beinir won on hoes, sheen and
poultry. This is a gain of $517.50
over last year. An Albany paper
states Mr. Schocl has helped to put
Albany on the map and is entitled to
a "booster' cap."
ONE VIEW OF IT.
Free Press:
In Linn county the railroad want
its assessment reduced from $.18.0110
a mile to ?-'0,000. The road is bring
ing in good letnrns on $100,000 a mile
and its owners so swear, but the
swearing is done in New Vork to sell
stock. The railroad is a benefit to
Linn county and a public necessity,
its right of way without a rail on it
would be uotlh seveial limes what
it wants to be assessed for. A con
tinuous strip of land between lbe
two ports of San Francisco and Port
land is very v.iluahle. On that land
value it should be made to pay. .
Cannon is funny any way. When
a-ked for an expression lhe old hypo
crile said: "I might quote the won'
of the apostle, Paul, who said in one
of the epistles: '1 have been in pris
on: 1 have been punished will
stripes: 1 have been shipwrecked: 1
have fought with the beasts at Ephc
us. but none of these things have
moved inc."
Senator I.afallctt's idea is that the
voter is the boss, that people are the
masters, not the slaves. This doesn't
suit such tyrants as Joe Cannon. Aid
rich and their like, but it gets close
to the hearts of the people, and that
is what counts.
SATURDAY NIGHT' THOUGHTS.
This week there were some elec
tions back cast, the regular November
contest for office. The year is what is
known as an off one, not many im
portant contests being on. The one
attracting the most attention was that
in New York City for Mayor and oth
er officials. While the Tammany can
didate won others were elected to
knock the Tammany machine, and
there is prospect of a change of policy
in New York government, with the
elimination of the boss system, which
has made the city smell for many
years. New York democracy should
break loose from Tammany. It had
better sink in honor than swim with
such a preserver.
This week there was some more of
Peary and Cook. The latter was
formally recognized by a scientific so
ciety as having reached the pole, while
the government refused to do the act.
When the miserable controversy ends
it will be with a general recognition
that both men reached the pole, but
Dr. Cook was there first, and is en
titled to priority as a discoverer, ac
cording to the horoscope of the Dem
ocrat, which is sometimes right, and
sometimes wrong, like other horo
scopes. The sooner it is settled the
better.
' This week a petition was filed with
the governor of Oregon asking for
the commutation of the sentence of
Jas. A. Finch from death to life in
the penitentiary. Some one said that
if it had been merely a matter of
sympathy he would have felt like
signing the petition if asked, but if a
matter of judgment he would certain
ly have had to refuse. No matter
what the murder case is if a mother
was to ask one to sign a petition
sympathy would make one do it re
gardless of judgment; but we cannot
be guided in such cases by sympathy.
With over 90 per cent of the murders
going unpunished Justice is reaching
out her hands. .
This week one of the hoaxes of the
day was that Roosevelt had been
killed. The wonder is that the hoax
waited so' long before it hatched.
Some men, though, before this would
have been killed. The democrat de
clared in the start- that Mr. Roosevelt
would come back alive all right, and
the guess continues to float.
How easy it is to make mistakes in
this world. No one realizes it more
than the newspaper man, whose life
is full of them; but does he make any !
more than others? Take the mer
chant, for instance, his errors are
numerous, as the delivery men will
tell, and the lawyer, as the records '
tell in black and white, and the courts 1
speak about, in fact everybody makes ;
plenty of them. Nevertheless how tin-i
charitable s.onic people arc when it is
the other fellow who docs it. There
is a difference in mistakes. . Some arc
seen only by one or two while those .
of the newspaper stand out in the
limelight for everybody to notice. Al
ways take a look in the glass before
you criticise others
When other people stumble it is
easy to talk; but who can tell what
would happen under the same temp
tation. Every person, though, can set
a high standard of citizenship and do
one's best right along, determined to '
stand for the best. Then a cog fre
quently slips. It is different from the
person who deliberately leads a vie--ions
life.
FOOT BALL FATALITIES.
The annual fight against the grid
iron is on; but it will end as usual.
The school that meets with a fatality,
may stop the game of foot ball; but it
will not stop generally, for it is a
game of generalship unequalled in
contests and is bound to survive.
There should, though, be very strict
rules, and no man should be allowed
in a game unless in condition. The
West Point student who went back
into the contest in a crippled condi
tion simply took his own life in his
hands. It was ridiculous to permit
him in the game, accomplished only
by a great effort.
COMPULSORY ARBITRATION
' Secretary Knox has evolved a sys
tem oi compulsory arbitration for the
I settlement of international difficulties.
, Theoretically suggestive of something
great, but practically it is very doubt
ful if il is possible of attainment. It
I would take an enormous compact, one

Senator Aldrieh is aboui to begin
a campaign of tariff education. It is
easy to see what this means. In the
meantime Mr. Aldrinh should go to
some kindergarten school and get
some pointers in the interest of the
