Sawing ood and saying nothing long has been a program of life ell to pattern after, But few of us have done it. For awing wood is hard work, and saying nothing is next ‘oor to impossible. However, Worthy Winchester Macomber, now 72 years !d, made it his daily job for over half a century. But he veered from his course the other day. he didn't do his quota of sawing, for he did nd a half cords ef wood, He talked!

If this can , by the Mexicans or otherwise, the American people will not be for intervention on his account. If, on the other hand, it can be proved to be a false and malicious charge, trumped up by the Mexican govern- ment, they will be for intervention. Jenkins is Today there is only one thing certain: And that support can only be based knowledge of what is going on. A judge permitted the sale of booze in New Orleahs and saloons combined to boost prices. Then a district attorney warned them that they would be prosecuted for profiteering. Legal proceedings are wonderfully and fearfully made. Hiram and the Whale An interesting little undercurrent in presidential politics is revealed in a recent editorial in the Chicago Tribune. Starting off with a dissertation about folks who live in the moon, this power in republican affairs trails off into this: Is the whale, then, True, it can spout “The whale can live under water.

In the eyes of the small boy, the profiteer or the rent hog is a halloed saint compared to the man who sprinkles ashes on the only street fit for bob-sledding. Well, we see that Capt.
