Because they like it and , When Jim pt ri the ‘fina ; scout of the plane, grew old; he thought he would like to retire from the somewhat arduous life of a plainsman and settledown. to the ease of “the east,”. which to,him meant Missouri. So he used ‘his best endeavor to find a competent man to All his place and went back to Migsourl. A year or two passed, and one day Captain Russell, the commandant of the: post which Bridger had left, was surprised to see the old scout heave In sight. When he came in, ‘the captain asked; “Well, Bridger, what brings you back here?” _ “Captain,” said Bridger, “I want to go back to scouting again.” “Indeed? Why, I thought you had settled dowm in the east forthe rest of . your. life!” “Well, cap’n, I'll tell you how it is .

Taiking of elephant fables, the animal trainer said: “Take, for instance, the story of the man who stuck a pin in the elephant’s trunk and years afterward was del-, uged with dirty water by the remembering elephant. I am surprised that any one should take this yarn seriously. Why, the average thickness of the elephant’s hide runs from half an inch to two inches deep. Now, imagine a pin goimg through that thickness on an errand of pain. It would swallow a pin-and-break a needle. “The old fashioned elephant story that has any real basis of truth is the one that makes the big brute afraid of @ mouse: Experience in the winter . quarters of a show, where mice and rats thrive, convinces one of this fact.

Did you embezzle the £20,000 you are accused of having taken?” —. “Yes, sir,” replied the accused man. “I'll not attempt to conceal the fact from you. I stole every. penny of it.” “How much of it have you left?” “It’s all gone but about £10.” “Young man,” said the eminent lawbyer, putting on his gloves,.“‘you’d betfer plead guilty and throw ‘yourself on the mercy of the court.” “I'll do it if you say 80, sir, What are you going to charge me for the advice?’ “Ten pounds.”—London King. A Trunkless Body. An explorer lately returned from his travels was relating his adventures. “J peered,” said he, “into the thicket, and there before me lay a trunkless body.” ““Nonsense,”’ remarked an Interfering critic, ‘who ever. heard of a trunkless bedy?’ “My friend,” replied ‘he traveler quietly, “the “bedy .was atlat of an elephant.” He then’ resumed his story.—London Globe.

The presidential electors have not always been chosen by~ popular. vote. Before 1800 it was the general custom for the state legislatures to choose the electors, and it was not until 1828 that presidential electors were chosen in nearly all the states by popular vote. As late ns 1876 the Colorado legislature chose the three presidential electors to represent that state. There is nothing in the constitution to prevent anystate legislature naming its own ‘electors without appeal to the ‘people provided such a method of election {s prescribed . by the state laws. ~ “sF'rom 1800 to 1824 presidential candi» jrdates were chosen by the menibers of congress .

The Disputed Name of the War. The Confederate Veterans, in ‘their annual convention in Louisville, decid ed that the war. of 1861-5 should be. known as the “war between the states.”: This is the name that Alexan. ’ der H. Stephens favored, and it is the one generally used by the people of the south in speaking of that war, the . Morthern people calling it the rebellion. Strange it is that neither name ts a correct definition of the event. All know that there was no rebellion. States that had sovereignty. could not be guilty of rebellion. Neither was it a war between the states, but actually a war between two governments made up of states. Some writers call it a civil war, yet it-was not a war between citizens in their civil capacity, but, as before said, a war .between regularly organized governments. There is, in fact, no concise way of naming the conflict; hence these misnomers. Possibly the best, title would be the simple one of calling it by the years of its beginning and close—namely, the war of1861-5,— Mobile Register, =— POLITICAL. For Saperisor—F Pifth "District.

The presidential electors have not always been chosen by~ popular. vote. Before 1800 it was the general custom for the state legislatures to choose the electors, and it was not until 1828 that presidential electors were chosen in nearly all the states by popular vote. As late ns 1876 the Colorado legislature chose the three presidential electors to represent that state. There is nothing in the constitution to prevent anystate legislature naming its own ‘electors without appeal to the ‘people provided such a method of election {s prescribed . by the state laws. ~ “sF'rom 1800 to 1824 presidential candi» jrdates were chosen by the menibers of congress .

The Disputed Name of the War. The Confederate Veterans, in ‘their annual convention in Louisville, decid ed that the war. of 1861-5 should be. known as the “war between the states.”: This is the name that Alexan. ’ der H. Stephens favored, and it is the one generally used by the people of the south in speaking of that war, the . Morthern people calling it the rebellion. Strange it is that neither name ts a correct definition of the event. All know that there was no rebellion. States that had sovereignty. could not be guilty of rebellion. Neither was it a war between the states, but actually a war between two governments made up of states. Some writers call it a civil war, yet it-was not a war between citizens in their civil capacity, but, as before said, a war .between regularly organized governments. There is, in fact, no concise way of naming the conflict; hence these misnomers. Possibly the best, title would be the simple one of calling it by the years of its beginning and close—namely, the war of1861-5,— Mobile Register, =— POLITICAL. For Saperisor—F Pifth "District.
