Perhaps after Teddy takes a
few more boxing and wrestling
lessons he'll be ready to tackle
Mark in a rough and tumble
scrap. _
An extraordinary defense is
that put forward by Major Wal
ler, of the Marine Corps, who is
being tried by court-martial for
having Filipinos shot without
trial—that their execution with
out trial was necessary, lawful,
and justifiable.
What a howl there would 1 have
been bad that proposition to coin
an unlimited quantity of Ameri
can Filipino silver dollars come
from a democrat.
Gen. Leonard Wood continues
to ignore that executive order
against officials trying to influ
ence Congressional legislation.
It took some hammering to
make them see the correctness of
the democratic demand that all
war taxes be wiped out, but no
vote was cast against the repeal
bill in either branch of Congress.
Oh, of course, the friends of
Miles and Schley love the admin
istration for its treatment of
those brave officers.
There is logic in the argument
of Gov. Beckham, of Kentucky,
that it is the buyer of dock-tailed
horses who should be attacked
and not the seller.
When it comes to general pop
ularity, Gen. Fitz Lee has been
showing that he is in it.
Fred. Funston is said to have
been much chagrined by his visit
to Washington. He expected to
be lionized, and found himself
almost ignored.
If the next President is to be a
domocrat, it will be necessary to
nominate a man that is on speak
ing terms with the party.
Gen. Miles seems to have kill
ed the army reorganization bill
that was prepared by Corbin and
Root.

when
Recent language therein indi
cates that the English House of
Commons is correctly named.
The English lord who has been
ostracized by English society for
striking his wife, who has secur
ed a divorce from him, might
find consolation among the toad
ies on this side of the Atlantic.
Isn't Emporor William rather
overdoing the thing in his
tempts to jolly the American
people by attentions to the
Roosevelts ?

There is nothing doing in the
Isthmian Canal line in the Sen
ate, thanks to the power of Mark
Hanna, but there may be some
thing doing at the polls a little
later.
So the gold standard republi
can administration thinks the
free coinage of American Filipino
silver dollars will be a good thing
for the Philippines, and that it
will make sentiment for the

THE MAZAMAS.
[The Mazamas were organized
on the summit of Mount Hood in
1894, and are com posed of moun
tain climbers. Membership is
limited to those who have climb
ed to the summit of a perpetual
snow-capped mountain acceptable
to the club. Its objects are, the
exploration of mountains, the
collection and dissemination of
scientific knowledge concerning
the same.]
Wo acknowledge the following
invitation from the Portland,
Oregon, Mazama Club :
"Mazama Friend :—
"Conforming with the wishes
of the majority, the ninth annual
outing of the Mazamas will be
made to Mount Adams, Washing
ton. Leaving Portland for White
Salmon on the morning of July
15th, 1902, the following day to
Trout Lake where permanent
quarters will be established dur
ing the stay, which will be from
the 15th to the 26th of July, in
clusive. Trout Lake, aside from
being remarkably beautiful and
enchanting is one of the most
ideal and attractive camp-grounds
in the Cascade range. A spot
full of dreamy splendor where
the atmosphere is redolent with
the perfume of wild flowers. The
clearest water, the gamest trout,
the most colossal sculpturing in
Nature, may be seen from its
shores.
"Mount Adams is one of the
giants of our Cordilleran region,
rising 12,400 feet above the Paci
fic ocean. A diadem of snow, di
verging and transforming into
crevasse and glacial cascade.
The customary camp-fire lecture
and mountain-lore will be rigidly
observed as a part of the outing
program. We expect to have
with us many scientists from
abroad and elsewhere.
"Trusting you will make com
plete arrangements and be in
readiness to join our 'Mam-ook
he'-he, Hy-as Kloshe, Hy-iu
muckamuck.'
"Respectfully yours,
"Outing Committee.
"Portland, Or., Mar. 26, 1902."
[We regret very much that we
will be unable to be a gnest of
the Mazama Club on the above
date. We may go to Thunder
mountain, and should we accept
the kind invitation of the Recor
der, and go to the new gold fields
by the Salmon route and climb
the Leesburg mountain, we will
be fully qualified for membership
in the Mazama Club.]
CARD OF THANKS.
We desire to express our sin

shown in the burial of our hus

The fight between the Ameri
can tobacco trust and the Imper
ial tobacco trust, of Great Brit
ian, which has been going on for
some time across the Atlantic, is
also to be carried on over here,
and the Universal tobacco trust
is said to have joined forces with
the British concern,
fight. It will be beneficial to the
public if they fight each other
into bankruptcy.

Mr. Roosevelt has decided that
his order against government
employees seeking to influence
Congressional legislation did not
apply to printers in the Govern

seemed to apply to anybody seek
ing to influence things Teddy's
way. _
Joe Manley's price has not yet
been reached. He declined to be

General. Joe thinks he is full

admitted
that War department officials are
seriously alarmed at the aw'ful
increase of disease among the
American soldiers in the Philip

INCORPORATIONS FILED.

400,000 shares of the par value of
10 cents. The incorporators are
John L. Wallace, Walter J. Wal

Neal, J. E. Tourtelotte, H. L.

Statesman. This is the Warren

west of Yankee Fork,

put up last fall. The ledges are
gold quartz exclusively, from one
to four feet in width, and carries
values from $10 to $35 and
wards per ton. Warren now has
a contract of running a tunnel on
one of the ledges.
It is another little help for our
county, as the incorporators of
Boise are people of means.

"DAD."
There are a class of men who
are seldom, if ever, appreciated
at their true value. In this en
lightened age they are commonly
called "Dad." It is "dad" that
humps himself year in and year
out, on the farm, in the office
workshop, in order that his toy
or girl may go away to school,
and upon their return, that the
boy may have a tine horse and
top buggy and the girl a costly
piano. It is "dad" that hustles
and cultivates great
knots on his hands and becomes
stoop-shoulderedjn order that
his offspring may revel in luxury
and make fools of themselves.

Why does a hop vine grow one

Where should a chimney

Can you tell why a horse when

twists it into kinky knots ?
How old must an apple tree be

Can you tell why leaves turn
