Something the same feeling must come to maiiy people in Jack son county when they read the ponderous manifestos of the county central committees, Democratic, and Keptililieaii. From the tone and awe-inspiring phrasing of these parly documents, one might siijipo.se they were addressed to a world congress and related to the crime of high treason or manslaughter, instead of the crime of voting for a candidate of another party, in peaceful, pastoral Oregon. ' It is all very amusing, the tremendous seriousness with which the most unassuming eit.izen takes himself, when he is elevated to the dignity of a precinct committeeman. And they are all alike, regard less of party. There is something about affiliation in any capacity with a political machine that automatically destroys even a normal sense of humor. '": ' i And while these appeals to vole the ticket straight are as iiiovit id)le every election, as campaign buttons, and swings around the circle, the outcome is always the same. A majority of republicans always vote the ticket straight, a majority of democrats always do the same, and an ever increasing minority of independent voters, who really determine the result of every election, vote for the man, or men, or principle, they want, regardless of party. And this, if one cares to analyze tho matter, is a very desirable thing. For it keeps both parties on their mettle, and it gives final au thority not to an artificial, necessarily selfish political organization, l ut to what might be termed the popular conscience. r But the party war horses never see it, or if they see it, never ad mit it. They continue to exhort the voters to be 100 per cent regular, and at the same time, point with great pride to the fact that the welfare of this country depends upon the competition and successful maintenance of two great parties. "What they never seem to see is thatthese two principles are abso lutely contradictory. There can never be two great parties if at any g.'ven time, the members of the party in control agree thereafter to "vote 'or straight." For "voting 'er straight" means to maintain the status quo, and maintaining the status quo means to establish a dictatorship, by one party. In 1908 Taft was elected by 7,000,000 over about b',000,000 votes for Bryan. Four years later 4,000,000 Republican voters left the Re publican party and voted for Roosevelt, leaving only 3,000,000 for Taft, while Wilson received 6,000,000, just what Bryan received in 1008. Quite a few party traitors one' might say. In 1910 the Democrats carried the country by a million votes, four years later the Republicans carried it by 7,000,000! Quite a change, again. And so it goes. And so it always will go. But the cry of the precinct committeeman, suffers no such ebb and flow, but crashes down the gorge of time forever, maintaining, in defiance of nil laws against perpetual motion, the party label must be indelible! 1 ',- Of course, it is all to be expected, that is, the attempt to maintain party regularity. But why can't they say it with a smile. Ouill Points A genuine reactionary is one who thinks the love of liberty the root of all evil. Russia needn't be so boastful of her Red guards. Other countrfes have blackguards. A free country is one in which a man thinks himself a martyr when arrested for breaking a law. A man never realizes how little confidence he has in 'boys until his daughter gets into her 'teens. At any rate an unpopular law can't In; enforced while it is vio lated by those with whom it is popular. The money to care for disabled soldiers may bo appropriated in time to build them a beautiful monument. Look up an old chap in Bradst reel's and you will know whether he is playing golf or pitching horse shoes. A moratorium is just the highbrow of admitting that there doesn't seem to be any blood in the turnip. t Just when we are willing to concede that women have real intel ligence, another of them marries that kind of man. RipplingRliumQs Walt Mason W I il IP LJ u FURS. MY Al'NT SAMANTHA sits and purrs, and'swells with misfit pride; for many gorgeous robes are hers, and furbelows beside; she has all kinds of costly furs for each some creature died. yy Aunt Samantha has the price to tony just what she 'wants, so seals are traced through northern ice, and butchered in their haunts, the mink must perish once or twice to give the muff she flaunts. Full soon the creatures of the. wild will be ex tinct, men say; for woman's sake their pelts are piled in bundles on a dray; and Aunt Samantha beamed and smiled o'er her new coat today. My aunt has not a calloused heart, no venom in her lips; she would not rend n stoat apart to get the fur she'i!,prize; she'd cause no beast a puiii or smart were it before her eyes. But sables, ermine, things like these, suggest no death or pain, no cruel traps or snickersnees, mx harmless creatures slain; she doubtless thinks they grow on trees on some far tropic plain. She doubtless thinks the skins are brought from orchards in the fall; hut what's the use of tiresome thought! She's dressing for a ball, and she is hurried and distraught tho taxi soon will call. If Aunt Samantha could behold tho little furry things which per ish in the snow and cold in traps with rusty springs, she'd order all her ermine sold to freaks like queens and kings.

She hasn't the exercising tempera ment, if she had she probably wouldn't be stout, besides as she has indulged in her own comfort to a great extent while she has been putting on flesh. Her will ixnver or her iower to sacri fice comfort are probably too much weakened for her to stick at any stren uous regime. However some women so value their youthful good looks that they will make these trifling sacrifices. Eventu ally, of course, they like the strenuous exercising, it's only the beginning of it that is hard. They like the feeling of being fit and vigorous. Cut it takes an enormous amount of exercise to reduce flesh, while the more strenuous the exercise the larger the nppetlt it produces. A woman who is reducing can eat more if she exer cises a great deal than if she lives a sedentary life, but she will never be able Uv eat enough to satisfy her appe tite aiubtUe must make up her mind to that. The easiest and pleasuntest way to reduce is to Join ''gymnasium. If there are no gymnasiums several stout women should join together and start one. It's perfectty simple because the only thing needed is a large empty room and several sets of Indian clubs or dumb-bells. Broomsticks are an in expensive substitute for gymnasium wands. .The best part of a club or gymnasium of tills sort is the element of competition it introduces.
