Some Lessons
THE Democratic primaries Saturday showed several things. One in particular
that the "ring" leaders will probably take advantage of is the proof that
the herder of voters has seen his best day Saturday's prfmaries demon-
strated that voters cannot be herded as of old- Even-the precincts that used to
pile up all sorts of majority for the favorite candidates of the men in power in
"the good old days before the poll tax" as some of the politicians are wont to re-
markthis vear barely gave majorities for "ring" favorites. One of the surprises
of the voting was the fact that Alderete's own home precinct went against the
ring ticket for Hall. Ike's "strength" is nothing like it used to be in thedays
when a poll tax receipt was unnecessary for a voter. With a candidate anything
like as strong or as popular as either Hall or Edwards had to face in the primaries
Aldcrete would not have pulled through. The days and power of the man who
toasts of the votes he carries in his pocket seem to be waning.
Hall's defeat in the primaries was not any more attributable to his unpopu-
larity than to the popularity of Edwards; neither was it because the people had
more confidence in the ability honesty or integrity of the other man. Hall's
defeat was due solely ana surely to the sentiment of the people against some of
the acts of Hall's deputies and the weakness displayed byfche sheriff m some
ot his appointments.
After the publication of the sworn evidence of one of the sheriff's deputies m
behalf of a man once convicted in El Paso of murder many of the people of El
Paso did not care to cast their vote in approval of the sheriff who had retained
this deputy in office as one of his chief lieutenants; then many people favorable
o Hall decided at the last minute to cast their votes against him when they saw
the personnel of some of his special deputies at the polls on Saturday. The good
people of El Paso do not care to see men like Tom Powers serving as "peace offi-
cers" at election polls or any place else. Sheriff Hall can therefore attribute his
defeat to the men around him rather than to any personal unpopularity or lack
of confidence of the people in his honesty and integrity. The sheriff meant well
enough but he was unfortunate in some of his selections of friends and lieutenants.
The people only hope in choosing another man-for the office that they will not
have occasion to find the same fault with him two years hence.
Q. j
Douglas couldn't ask for anything better. Three straight games from El Paso
ought to make the Demons go home happy enough.
o
probably it was the heat of Saturday's .political battle that brought on the
electrical storm Saturday night; it was the most brilliant that El Paso has seen
in years. -.
The Pride Of
T. PAUL Minn. is to inaugurate a
show in November. The exhibits will be judged strictly on tneir menus wiu-
nnt regard to nedigree- Aristocrats among the beef makers will receive no
mo-e recognition than the stock cattle without any record in the family Bible.
Theonly test will be the ability of the animals to produce first quality beef in
abundance. The Sons and Daughters of the Revolution will receive no more recog-
nition than the latest arrival in the tramps' steerage- It will be strictly a contest
of merit and many cases are on record where plebeian cattle have shown up better
than the cattle of the aristocracy with pedigrees as long as a moving picture film.
There will literally be nothing in a name.
There is a good deal of human interest in this little cattle show item for the
pedigree of many humans is open to the same sort of query. "Blue blood" too
often means anemia and pride of ancestry is too often made an excuse for present
general worthlessness.
In this western country men are put on test just as the beef cattle will be
put on test at St. PauL The question out here is Whit are you good for? What
can you do? A writer in "Life" admits that the western text is the most searching
and mosf practical; he says the New Englander asks What do you know? the New
Yorker How much have you got? but in the west the real test is the test of per-
formance while ancestry is the last thing to gain recognition upon unless ii
manifests itself in actual superiority.
. o
Anyhow the county ring is a bit battered; it knew there was an election Saturday.
And after all elections do not always
the job.
r
While the Hall Room Boys had nothing to do with it Hall will make room for
"the Boys" after November- There doesn't seem to be any room around the county
courthouse for "opposition."
To Relieve Money Market
THE secretary of the treasury advises national banks to form currency as-
sociations -under the Aldrich-Vreeland law of May 30 1908. The law pro-
1 vides for the issuance of additional bank notes in emergencies either by
individual banks upon deposit of proper security or by organizations of "JO or more
national banks having a combined capitalization of $5000000 or more.
The secretary believes that the plan of currenncy associations to issue emer-
gency bank notes is practical and commendable. He thinks the formation of the
associations should not be delayed until the emergency arises but should take
place new while the financial atmosphere is clear. There is no immediate likelihood
of immediate revision of the law and the banks may as well take advantage of it.

Some men are bound to have laudatory public notices even if it be necessary
to print "advertisement" at the end around about election time. v

THE COBRA
By Argwicke Fulles.
It -was 4 oclock in the afternoon when
we all gathered on the piazza of the
n
major's bungalow a few miles from
Bombay. With the exception of our
host none of us had ever seen any of
the tricks of the real Indian fakirs so
. .
we were naturally quie excited.
Cap'tain Goring a young officer who
had only been a few monhts in India
laughed at the idea of any of these men j
possessing occult powers wnne jermyn
the engineer who was somewhat of a
scientist played with a small kodak
hidden in an ordinary cigar box be-
cause of the natives dislike of photog-
raphy. On the lavn outside stood two shabby
men in the dazzling sunshine. These
two were famous magicians invited by
the major to convert the doubting Gor-
ing. Their preparations weer very simple
and their apparatus consisted merely
of a small basket and a little bundle of
clothes. Upon a signal from the ma-
jor one of the magicians a gray haired
old indian put his head into the basket
and drew forth a large cobra whose
forked tongue played In the sunlight.
The other magician whistled softly and
the cobra began to say ay gently in time
with the tune. At the same time we
heard the clicking of Jermyn's camera.
The music grew wilder and little by
litle the dancing cobra began to be
transformed into a woman who contin-
ued dancing as had done the snake.
I remember Jermyn afterwards com-
pared his sensations to a chloroform
hallucination "which seems to indicate
that he at least kept his head clear. As
for myself I remember only dimly hear-
ing the click of the camera as the trans-
formation took place.
Suddenly the music stopped and the
girl stood in front of us draped only
in a black veil. She dropped the veil
and we saw her face and shuddered.
Her dark eyes scanned our faces and
fastened on Goring. Her beauty was
unearthly but more fascinating than
that of any woman I ever saw a

Into one's heart and aroused the wildest

j enough to take- a photograph.
The girl came nearer her-gyes con-
stantly riveted on Goring's face. H?
gave a sharp cry half in fear half in
joy and went to meet her with open
arms.
Her face was dazzling white but her
eyes looked like glowing coals at the
botom of two deep wells. She stretch-
ed out her hands towards Goriiig and
disappeared.
We awoke from our. dreamlike condi-
tion .with a start. The major rubbed his
eyes and sighed. Perhaps it was well
thafhis wife who was red and fat did
hot "hear that sigh. Jermyn whose
hands were shaking asked for a whis-
ky and soda and said he felt rather
shaky.
Goring said nothing. He was reclin-
ing in his chair and stared with wild
eyes to'wards the place where the girl
had disappeared. In the sunshine out-

Don't Whine Over Poverty.
If you cannot afford to do certain

But when you decide you must decide
too that you will pay the price and
make no whining plea of poverty.
There are two extremes of people in
the world one as distasteful as ihe

Goring.s side
"Wake up old boy" he snid with a
rather forced attempt to apear. jolly

ing into space as if he saw a ghost
J Jermyn snook him but took no no-
j tice.
j "Where is she" he murmured.
We carried him upstairs and placed
him on the major's bed bnt it took our
combined strength to hold him there.
He raved and swore he must follow the
girl. After an hour he grew calmer
but even wjien the doctor came he con-
tinued to whisper: "I love her I love
her."
"Now do not be an idiot Goring" said
the major "there wasno woman at all.
They only made you believe you saw
one. Isn't that so Jermyn?" he asked
the engineer who came in with the de-
veloped films.
"Of course there was no woman"
Jermyn answered "and I will prove it
to you right now."
But Goring had already dozed off
again and heard nothing.
"Did you ever see anything like it"
exclaimed Jermyn when we were in the
next room. "I made three exposures
one when the man took the cobra from
the basket one when we first saw the
girl and finally one when Goring was
about to embrace her and I'll be hang-
ed if he did not come near taking the
d d cobra into his arms right before
our eyes. Look here!"
He held the last film to the light and
we plainly saw Goring with the hands
not two inches from a large cobra in
erect position ready to strike.
The major shivered.
"Well you can't hypnotize a camera
you know" Jermyn continued. "The
girl we saw -was nothing more than the
Infernal reptile and still there was not
one of us who was not ready to kiss
it."
The major and I wanted to sit up with
Goring who was now sleeping calmly.
The doctor had promised to look in a
couple of hours after midnight arid as
the major took the first watch 1 laid
down to get a little sleep. 4 1
About half past 1 I was -awakens! by
the major shouting fbat Goring had
gone. The window leading to the piazza
was open and the major told me. that
Goring must have taken advantage of
his absence while he went to get some
ice water In the dining. room. "He was
apparently asleep when I left" the ma-
jor said "but when I' returned about 10
minutes later the bed was empty."
All the servants were aroused and
we began a search. Near the end of the
garden the major stopped with an ex-
clamation of horror. We could see noth-
ing end the path was narrow and the
major's broad shoulders blocked the
road but we heard a faint noise among
the fallen leaves and quick as light-
plng the major whlped out his revol-
ver. The shot was still ringing In our ears
when we heard a louder noise among
the leaves and saw the major kneel
down.
"Here he is" he said "poor Goring."
He lit a match and we saw Goring"
dead his head resting on the major's
knee. The mark of a terrible snake
bite was on his throat and among the
leaves we saw an Immense cobra in the

XIX-XX. THE BRITISH CRISIS. .
L
ONDON Eug. July 25. "He is"
said a great British journalist of
David Lloyd-George "the symbol
of a new age; the herald of a new time;
the outward and visible sign that the
common people are coming into their
own. It is difficult to place Lloyd-

in British politics before. Perhaps he
comes nearest to Abraham Lincoln of any
of the latter day leaders of the demo-
cra cy."
Unlike Jefferson unlike Gladstone
Lloyd-George is like Lincoln in that he
is a democrat through and through.
Being of the plain people he knows
the plain people he loves the plain peo-
ple and he always is the enamplou of
the plain people believing with the
great American emancipator that "God
must have loved the plain people for
he made so many of them." Like Lin
coln he is abhorred of the classes and !
adored of the masses. There has been

British politics. He Is the he'aM and
front of the revolution in Britain and j
as such he is the most hated and the
most loved man in all the realm of
George V.
That such a man holds the high of-
fice of chancellor of the exchequer
that such a man is the leader of the
party in power in Great Britain that
such a man seems destined to rule over
the British empire as the prime minis-
ter of the crown; that such a man has
power to sway a British cabinet and
command a British parliament is in
the estimation of the ruling classes who
have governed England for a thousand
years an outrage and a desecration.
That such a man has been able to
reach this high position and to wield
this great power. Is to the struggling
and starving masses of average men
and plain people the promise of the
dawning of a new and better day a
day in which the man who works shall
be equal before the law and in political
power with the man who shirks.

save a dear little 12yearold lad with
a mad passion for fishing what would
you do?
That's what I asked myself for two
days and then I became a busybody
and grew interested in my neighbors.
I was not invited to go fishing; I
talked too much "And you know
Auntie the fish won't bite when you
talk" said my little lad with engaging
candor. "So If you don'a mind Auntie
dear' me and the guide'll go fishing
alone and you can sit on the veranda."
So the veranda and a book with the
everlasting hills to gaze upon became
my portion.
Pretty soon right under my nose
there cropped up the prettiest romance.
The girl was so young that she hardly
knew it was a romance a demure
anjrc-1-faced scrap of a girl the kind
of girl that the wise folks have decreed J
should "fall in love and marry youngN
else she'll have lots of trouble. The
! boy was more sophisticated but a
bonny boy for all that.
They are drifting into love's haven
as fast as possible if only their elders
and friends will leave them alone.
But those busy meddlers are inclined
to tease them and at every insinuation
that she and the boy are more than the
merest friends the girls takes alarm
like a shy wild creature of the woods.
Let Them Alone.
Oh the romances that arc brought to
an abrupt end by well meaning inter-
fering friends! When a man and a
maid are falling in love the kindest
thing their friends can do Is to let
them alone. It is well enough to throw
them unobtrusively together but any-
thing obvious places the girl in a most
mortifying position and is apt to
frighten away the man. The quickest
way to break off a match is to tease
the participants.
An anxious mother often spoils her
daughter's chances by betraying her
anxiety. Most men know the kind of a
wife they want and throwing a girl at
a man's head is both unwise and un-
necessary. Sometimes when a young man is just
beginning to feel that he is interested
in a girl some member of her family
will pass a remark that shows that
they think his intentions are serious.
It frequently frightens Miss Muffet
away.
No teasing is pleasant for the victim
but the teasing of young men and girls
about each other is insufferable.
Never tease a girl about a man's
peculiarities. If she can overlook them
surely you can. It is no business of
yours
I know one gir.l who grew to
hate a man and finally broke her en

cellor of the exchequer was Elizabeth
Lloyd daughter of the reverend David
Lloyd a Baptist minister.
Soon after young David was born
his father and mother returned to
Wales and before the boy was three
years old his father died. The home
was broken up and the first thing
David Lloyd-George can remember is
the sale of his widowed mother's fur- j
niture to satisfy a debt owed to an ab-
sent and impersonal landlord. The
widow could not take care of all the
children and Davidl was given to her
brother Richard Llord.
Richard Lloyd was a shoemaker in
the village of Llanystundwy for six
days in the -week and on the other he
was pastor of an iinproverished congre-
gation of Campbellite Baptists. Lloyd's
cobbler shop was the villasre- forum.

worthies to discuss politics and religion
and to hear from the lips of the edu-

saw how much of a man he was and
she then and there made up her mind to
be strong enough in the future to abide
by her own opinions.
Make Fnn Of Him.
Sometimes a girl will write and tell
me that she loves a man but hesitates
to marry him because hec friends make
fun of him.
What if other people do make fun of
him you are the one to marry him
not they. You have a better chance
of knowing his real worth.
The thing to do is to assert yourself
and saj "Make fun of him to others.
If you like but don't dare do It to me."
that will silence them.
When a girl marries she marries to
suit herself not her neighbors; if she
loves and respects the man that is all
she need worry about.
A last word to the busybodies.
When Cupid is bringing two young
people together keep out and mind
your own business. Help them when
1 the opportunity occurs. but don't
meddle and don't tease.
AMERICAN HUSBANDS1
By Winifred Black
MRS. O. H. P. BELMONT Is tell-
ing them over In England that
chivalry is dead in America.
She had better cqme home and learn
something about her own country be-
fore she makes many more such state-
ments. Chivalry dead in America! Perhaps
it is in Newport oiftup on the Riverside
Drive. It is not dead in the little" old
United States. Not dead and not even
dying.
"Husbands treat their wives like
slaves. They do not give their wives
a decent share of their earnings?"
Well well. There Is always a new
point of view isn't there?
Now the average American husband
that I know works for just one thing
to give his wife the very best home he
j can afford and to educate his children
as if there were to be the heirs to mil-
lions. The average American husband is not
a tyrant; he is not a miser; he Is not a
cruel and exacting taskmaster.
He Is just exactly what his wife
makes him a money-making machine
and he is a money-making machine
and very little else because money n
the one thing that the average Ameri-
can woman seems to want from her
husband.
Money talks but. to the average
woman money fairly yells.
The man I know spends two-thirds
of his incame on his wife and family
and spends half of his time making up
excuses to account for what he did with
the other third.
A woman who thinks of nothing but

The Xon-Conformist minister mind-
ful of the djing man's request gava
notice under the newly enacted Os
borne-Morgan burial act which gava
Noe-Conformists the right to bury their
dejid under the exercise of their own
ministrations that the rector's services
would not be required. The rector was
furious and although under the new
law he could not forbid the burial in
the churchyard he claimed the right
to decide -where the body should be
buried. He ordered the sexton to close
up the grave and open another in a
desolate corner of the churchyard
which had been set aside for the in-
terment of suicides.
As a Lawyer AdviscH Action.
The relatives of the dead man con-
sulted the boy . lawyer Lloyd-George.
He found that the churchyard had
been given to the church by the com-
munity and that it was enclosed by a
stone wall erected at he cost of the
parishoners and that it undoubtedly
was parish property.
The young- solicitor advised the vil-
lagers to assemble in force at the en
trance of the churchj'ard and demand
aomarance as a right. "And then" said
he "should the vicar refuse to open the
gates then break down the wall which
your subscriptions have built force
your way into the churchyard which
you own reopen the grave and bury
the old man by his daughter." This
heroic advice appealed to the Infuriated
qnarrymen and It was obeyed aarf car-
ried out to the letter.
The rector brought an action for
trespass and damages in the county
courfT Lloyd-George made a brilliant
speech in defense and under the spell
of his eloquence the jury brought In
an immediate verdict in favor of his
clients. But' the judge waived the ver-
dict or a point ot law and a-warded
damages to the rector. An appeal was
taken before lord chief justice Coler-
idge who quashed the judgment of the
court below and justified the violence

jjmate assertion of their legal risrhtsl
Attracts Much Attemtloc.
This case attracted great attention in
f Nn-Conformist circles all over
the
country and it was the beerinnins- of
Mr. Lloyd-George's professional fame.
He became secretary of the Anti-Tithe
league an organization formed to resist
the enforced payment of tithes to the
clergy of the Established church. A
tour of the country in behalf of this
organization wa his first -spciking
campaign. He was elected to the first
county council chosen in Carnarvon-
shire and was known as the youngest
alderman in the kingdom. In 1S90
when he was 27 years old he was elect-
ed to parliament as a representative of
Carnarvon Boroughs which seat he has
held for 20 years. He has been elected
six times and each time by an increased
majority.
First Bis: Speech In 1S0O.
His first speech in the house of com-
mongas delivered in the debate upon
the BWget of 1S90 and was an attack
upon the privileges of the liquor trade.
It was a terrific arraignment of
Joseph Chamberlain and lord Randolph
Churchill and in this initial effort the
young Welsh member won praises from
th'e press gallery and predictions of a
great career.
Later in his first sesion he took up
the fight for Welsh disestablishment
and with two other Welsh members un-
dertook a series of filihusters which
forced even Mr. Gladstone to attempt
to discipline him. But the young Welsh-
man declared that he had as much right
to act according- to his conscience as
Mr. Gladstone and he did not hesitate
to cross swords with the great com-
moner who it must be confessed was
not much of a democrat when the
church was involved. Before his first

"Husbands in America do not give
their wrves a decent share of their
I earnings."
You are right. Mrs. Belmont. They
do not. They glAo them an indecent
share and the aA'erage wife is so busy
trying to keep up with the millionaire's
wife across the way that she never
notices that her husband is on the brink
of failure till he breaks down and goes
-to a sanitarium.
The rest cures of this country are
full of men sent there by the selfish-
