He might well have added that it has not served to strengthen any party in any state It is curious to recall] that the avowed object of the direct primary reform, in many of the states was to conserve party and party organization. No one will now say that it has do anything of the kind. But it has obliterated the Demoerg party—an unexpected and not ultogether desirablo result— and has greatly incre ] the number of professing Republi is. The same prenomenon is observed in states, such Michigan, Wisconsin, | Minnesota, Kansas, Aska, the Dakotas, Idaho, Jo, Wyoming, Washu and Pennsyivania. But if there is no Democratic party to these states, there tic are Democrats. Ali, yes. At least there are enough to: be can didates for office.

This is old stuff, to be sure. Nothing, What's the use? rty, and in the other part of men ise there is no place else io ge, give for a deserving Democrat aspiriy What is to be done about it? Our Summer Climate Jhe hot weather of the past, few days with the thermometer registering ninety-five to ninety-nine is something unusual for a country advertising an unexcelled summer climate. The first thing we know we will have no summer climate fit to mention, let alone recommend to strangers. It is no consolation to us to know that other places, that aspire to summer climate hon- ors, are having weather that belies what their resorts have advertised and their people have wri(ten to friends,, along with our own immediate section. Hot weather in Wyoming is not only the unusual thing it is the very rare occurrence. Warm days in summer always occur; but warm nights are so strange a phenomenon as to excite us, and lead us to believe something. has happened to us either since the war and on count of it, or since the banana belt of Montana was displaced by earthquake, or the fountain head of all climate, California, got the weather re ports all balled up in the late Sinta Barbara disturbance and handed up the weather orders that should have gone to Miama, Florida, or the Isthmus of Panama. In any event, we cannot believe that any permanent dam age has been done or any change in our climate has occurred, that will destroy our heretofore splendid reputation as an ideal place to spend the summer months when it is ordinar ily wweltering elsewhere. We do not like to recall any of the advertising matter issued one behalf of our summer climate; but at present it is rather discouraging to live up to the specifications contained in the folders Ah well! the weather will be different in Decem) State Debts The state governments of the United States havé their be The huge debt now améunts to #$1,58 every man, Woman and child in the country New York state's population, prosperity and ates $320,991,000, The cost of its canal system, highw bonus to war veteran it the larg total debt any state, although its per capita debt is comparatively lc Massachusetts nd with $125,0146,961.98 of which a large proportion represents the value of its metropolitan district im provements and highways.
