A Simple Man By MADELINE LEWIS. Copyrighted, 1908, by Jessie Morgan. Young Mr. Trask, the lawyer, in tended to be a candidate for the legis lature in the Fourth district. He had the- reputation of being sharp, keen and shrewd. Man; "said he was "up to snuff." Others said that he would see that the interests of the district were not overlooked. Some thought he ought to have the nomination be cause he was Just beginning his career, and this would give him a boost. The young man had been in Watervale only a year, and as he was only twenty-seven, good looking and bound to succeed he had made a place for him self in society. He could flatter him self that he had made progress in ev ery family but one, the Thompson family. They called John Thompson"Hopest John." That had been his appellation for years. He was part farmer and part citizen and not well off in this world's goods, and yet he had a repu tation that plenty of men might envy. His daughter Minnie, an only child, was neither a belle nor a leader of so ciety, but she was fair looking and possessed of strong character and not at all the young lady to be captivated by the personal advantages of the young Mr. Trask. They had met socially, and she had not at all been taken with him. On the other hand, he had been greatly impressed. Intuition told him that he was not in favor, but the opposi tion only stimulated him. He bad eas ily made friends with the father, but he found that to win the girl's interest would be a far different thing. For weeks It had been a foregone conclusion that Mr. Trask would be nominated and elected, but when the convention was finally called it de veloped that the ring politicians' had not counted on the farming communi ty. The men of the plow had become tired of the politicians and their tricks of the promises so freely made and so often broken and when the mo ment came they broke away and made a surprising nomination. "Honest John" was the nominee. He had never held a political office in his life. Ho was honie and at work in stead of being at the convention, trot his friends pledged him to stand, and he accepted it. Only one Influence de cided him in this matter, and that was the advice of his daughter. "Father," she'satd to him when the news came, "you are not a politician, and you are not a schemer. You can't make a speech, and you won't be heard of in that body. You are simply a plain, honest man, and you will go there to represent others of the same 11k.. It is a time when plain, honest uten are wanted at the front. Go there and do your duty a? best you can." "I wish Lawyer Trask had got It," he sighed. "He can make speeches and mix in with the best of 'ein and come home to be talked of in the pa pers. I shall be only a toadstool on a stump. By the. way, hain't he coming here pretty often?" "Yes; he calls occasionally." "I thought it was a little oftener than occasionally." "If it is, he is wasting his time. Father, I don't like Mr. Trask. He is too ambitious to get ahead. He is so ambitious that he loses sight of the scruples that should guide all honest men. He wanted to go to the legisla ture simply as a means to advance bis own interests." "But I took him to be a young man of good principles." "Politics has no principles, and he seeks to be a politician. There Is but one watchword with them, and that is to win. You will be elected as an hon est man and not as a politician." "Oh, I shan't do any stealing," smiled the father, "bnt I'm thinking that I'll feel like a cat In a strange garret up there. I'd a heap rather they had sent some one else, but I'll try it for a term if yon say so. Per haps there'll be three or four other old codgers like me to get In wlth.'i There was no question about the chagrin and disappointment of the young lawyer over his defeat, bnt he dissembled fairly well before the girl when he made his next call. He ac knowledged that it was something of a setback, bnt wilted that It was her father who bid secured the nomina tion. V Before departing be grew sentimental and might have made a declaration of bis love if be had not been checked. He most have plainly understood that be had as yet created no Interest, bat In his perversity he determined to con tinue. The fanner bad hardly been settled In bis seat at the state capltot when Trask appeared. He was more than sroaDy deferential and friendly. He could and be did give' the bonest man many helpful pointers, and It was a fortnight before the errand that brought him there was stated. He was a lob byist for a certain corporation which wanted an old raOread charter re newed. "Honest John" bad read and beard something a boot that charter. He had never fairly got to the right or wrong of It. bot when the lawyer earns to talk with bun about It and endeavor to enlist his aid John Thompson save ne pledge. Trask was promised that the oe.tioo shock) be looked Into, and If It eoold be conscientiously done he boold receive the fanner's aid. It looked easy for a maa who was -op to stuff to beadla this old farav te. He handled ethers, and then seat to Thompson te argwe and Ch Money ana promises were freely need, and there came a time when the tobbyh eoold at least fUntra on aa even vote bs the ihn- stm stock eat He heflut the si nmrn to discover where the colored gestlsrBen was hidden, not B feeling that he was asw n the wood pOe eomewhere, aid he weald net commit hi merit It was then that the lawyer flopped trrament tor the store eossrxnl ween en. He knew the .financial condmow of the farmer. He doubted "if the man had ever had a thousand dollars in his hand. Though rated as "honest," there was a doubt as to whether be could stand temptation legislative tempta tion. One night he paid Thompson a visit In his room and west over the whole matter with him, putting everything In a most favorable light, and when ho went away he left a thousand dollars in crisp greenbacks on the bureau. That was double the price he had paid others, but he had reasons .for increas ing the bribe. The money was found after he left, and next day the old farmer came to him to restore it "It must have been left by some other caller," was the reply, "prob ably by some one who was In there arguing In favor of my bill. He may speak to yon about It in the course of the day." "But he was mighty careless to leave a thousand dollars lying around that way." "Oh, he Isn't worrying about It Per haps he wanted to make yon a little present and took that way of doing it It s often done here In the legislature, you know." "It may be, but I've done nothing to earn it, and I don't know more than ten members by name. I wish that the feller who left it would come back." He was told to hang on to the money until the owner called for it but be was much perplexed and put out. By a curious coincidence three weeks later he found two other farmer members' who had come into possession of $500 each in just as mysterious a manner. There seemed to be a philanthropist going about among the conscientious members and distributing rewards of merit. When the house adjourned for a week and "Honest John" went' homo to his daughter he had that thousand dollars with him, and its history was still a mystery. In a few hours, how ever, he was enlightened, and be went back to the legislative body to en lighten others. The day finally came when Lawyer Trask's bill was up. He had counted noses and was sure of its passage. He sat there in the utmost confidence, to be amazed and dumfounded when it was defeated by a majority of three. Honest John and his two farmer friends had recorded their votes among the "nays," although they had been bought and paid for. An hour later the former had a caller at his room. The ' caller was pale faced and desperate. "Mr. Thompson," he said, "I left a thousand dollars on that bureau one night a few weeks ago." "Geewhlttaker! But you denied it was yours!" "It was a little present" "But why should you make me a present of a thousand dollars?" Because because I wanted your help on that bill and because I was go ing to ask your daughter to be my wife." "And mebbe you left $500 apiece for Crane and Williams?" "Y-yes." "And you were going to ask their daughters to be your wife?" "N-o-o." "See here, Mr. Trask," said the old man after looking at him for half a minute, "If I were you I wouldn't ask Minnie to be your wife. I told her all about the money when I went noma She said as it wasn't yours and as no one had lost It and as Crane and Wil liams was In the same fix that the mon ey belonged to charity. "We sent it down to her, and she di vided It between a couple of orphan asylums, and she's got the receipts to show that It reached 'em. No, I wouldn't ask her. I might object to yon as a son-in-law, and she might take It that yon were trying to boy your way Into the family. "Lemme just add that yon are a mighty careless man with yonr money, and If yon don't mend your ways you'll bring up In the county boose before you are forty years old." The Reporter's Dictionary.

A larger proportion of this winter's mutton supply will be made on the farm and less in the big feed lot than ever before. Expensive plants are ly ing idle all over the country, and own ers are puzzled to find a profltatfTe use for them. . It Is a logical development of an era of expensive production. Making mutton in wholesale fashion necessitates cheap feeding stock, cheap feed and cheap labor. Around Chicago are half a dozen huge feeding plants, representing an Investment aggregating more than a million dollars, that have been taxed to full capacity in recent years, but have been full of vacant space this winter. At Winona, Minn., a noted feeding point only a few thousand head have been put on. Around St Paul and Minneapolis th winter's out put will suggest the tOly extinction of a once flourishing Industry in that locality, while southern Michigan Is dotted with huge feeding barns now without occupants other than rats. Farseelng feeders concluded last fall not to court financial extermination by filling up with high priced stock in the face of an unprecedented feed bill. But the big feed lot turned out good mutton, and the new era is regretted by killers. When a band of lambs came from one of the big feed lots killers knew they were getting an ar ticle of standard quality and could tven approximate the fill. This en abled them to buy sheep and lambs by the tralnload on the reputation of the feeder. Now, with the bulk of supply coming from farmers' feed lots buyers can take no such chances and dressing results are uniformly lower.

"f"lIE most famous naval officer In I American history was David I Glasgow Fa rr a gut. who died In 1870. Admiral Farragut cer tainly had abundant opportunity to make himself famous. He served In three great wars that of 1812, the struggle with Mexico and the rebellion. Admiral Farragut's chief service, however, and that which won for htm the distinction which places him at the head of the list of our naval command ers, was given during the civil war. It Is a fact somewhat remarkable that a man past sixty years of age should dis play such bravery and such ability as were shown by Farragut. Farragut, it may be said, grew up in the navy. He was adopted into the family of the Commodore Porter of bis boyhood and was bred to the sea. Though but eleven years of age when the war of 1812 began, he served through that conflict, up to the begin ning of 1815, as a midshipman. From that time forth he remained in naval service, and when the civil war opened be was already a veteran of almost fifty years' experience. Though born In Tennessee and living in Virginia at the outbreak of the war, Farragut adhered to the Union cause, went north and was assigned to duty In command of the western blockading squadron in the gulf of Mexico. The story of his gunboats passing the bat teries at New Orleans, Port Hudson and Vlcksburg under heavy fire, re sulting In the capture of New Orleans and opening the Mississippi op to Vlcksburg, greatly aiding General Qrant In the tedious but triumphant campaign against the latter strong bold, Is unique In naval history. But Farragut's most sensational and thrilling exploit was achieved at the entrance to Mobile bay, where be was in immediate personal command, bis vessels plunging through a field of the enemy's torpedoes, silencing the terri ble batteries and capturing Confeder ate boats In what was practically a band to band fight Schoolboys of many years to come will be thrilled by the story of the brave old admiral lashed to the mast of bis flagship, glasses in band, watching and direct ing the movements of his squadron In the midst of a plunging fire from pow erful forts. Farragut received from congress the highest honors possible, the ranks of vice admiral and admiral being cre ated for him. He was the old man magnificent of the American navy.

Washington Letter. Washington April 4, 1908. A recent interview given to the press by W. B. Hennesay of St. Paul who was sent to New York to pro mote the boom of Governor John son of Minnesota is regarded by the Democratio leaders aa typical of the opposition to the great Nebraskan. Mr. Hennesay went to New York filled with Johnson enthusiasm. He returned filled with enthusiasm for Chas. A. Towne, who is said to command the united support of Tammany Hall. Mr. Hennesay tells the world that Governor John- ion would welcome the nomination of Mr. Towne as Vice-President, but that if Mr. Johnson cannot be nom inated lor first place, then he believ es Mr. Towne will be. Mr. Towne-, it will be remembered, was appoint ed to the Senate vice the late Cuah man K, Davis, who had died in of fice. Towne was then a Republi can. He later became a Democrat, however, and served a term in the House as a Representative from New York. Mr. Towne is eminently popular in and out of Tammany Hall, but there are few Democrats who will regard him as in the same class as William J. Bryan or as ap proaching presidential size. Nor is it at all likely that the great body of the Democracy would care to en ter the fight for the presidency with a Tammany candidate. The case with which Mr, Hennesay has been won over to the Tammany view, however, is regarded here as showing how little real vitality there is to the opposition to Mr. Bryan and especially to the Johnson boom. Senator Teller of Colorado made quits a speech in the Senate this week on what he called the tendency of the general government to over rule the powers of the States of the Union and to ignore the restrictions of the Constitution. He contended that the Federal government justi fied any act od its part by ascribing it to the public interest. President Roosevelt recently en tertained at the White House the well-known British naturalist, R. Keatnor, who lectured, in Washing ton, by request, to a distinguished audience including the President and the French Ambassador. After luncheon at the Whits House the President took Mr. Keatnor for a drive into the country and introduc ed him to many American birds. Together they stalked woodpeckers, phoebee, cardinal birds and tree sparrows, creeping stealthily over muddy, slippery hillsides, and be neath dripping undergrowth. Mr. Keatnor afterwards declared that he bad the extreme satisfaction ol thanking ths ruler of tbe United States of America for giving me tie greatest ornithological treat I have ever enjoyed in my life." A rumor has been circulated to ths effect that Post master Genegal Meyer is contemplating resigning bis position in ths Cabinet to accept (bs control of a large trust company Mr. Meyer denies absolutely the truth ol the story and be is occupied with plans looking to improvements and additions to tbe service. Mr. Meyer just now is devoting great attention to ths postal savings bank and the cheaper parcel post and he is confident that if these measures are adopted great benefit will accrue to ths country as a result. Some of the MU-Brraa-tlee have been counting on Texas to help them in their fight against the Peer less Leader but they have counted without their boat. It is true that there baa been a good deal of anti- Bryan sentiment In ths Lone Star stats but it has all laded away in the presence of tbe fight on Senator Bailey.

AT ONEIDA STORE. - GRAHAM, - - - N.'C. ing faction have each come out strong for Bryan and, according to Representrtive Slayden, nothing will prevent Texas from sending a solid Bryan delegationto Denver. Louis- ana will not send a Bryan delegation but that fact does not prevent the Senators from that state from pre dicting that ultimately the Louisana delegates will cast their vote for Mr. Bryan and everything points to a walkover for the gentlemen from' Nebraska. . The result of the Massachusetts primaries ia regarded here as a vic tory for Secretary Taft who will re ceive at least twenty-two out of the thirty-two votes cast by the Massa chusetts delegation. Of course tho methods employed in Massachusetts leave some ground for juggling with the facts and tbe anti-Taft crowds will perhaps, continue to f claim nearly all tbe, delegation, but there is no ground for the claim. Of the district delegates twenty ue pledged informally, to vote for Taft, although they will not be instructed, and two of the delegates at large will do tbe same. The breaking of the solid Illinois delegation by tbe instruction of two delegates for Taft has proved a severe blow to Speaker Cannon and the old man he is already 72 looks (en years older since be has known that he cannot get the solid delegation from his state. The re sult has been to make him unusual ly testy as many members can testi fy to their sorrow, for tbe Speaker ia killing bills right and left as if to relieve his feelings. He bss even "Scotched" th anti-trust amend ment which tbe President is so anx ious to have enacted, and tbe White Mountain Forest Reserve bill baa received its coup de grace from Mr. Cannon.
