The Woods Investment Company of Victor, Colo., is now building an immense electric power plant to furnish 5000 to 10,00 !-horse-power, on Beaver Creek, fifteen miles. southwest of Cripple Creek.

The Alameda Argus tells this good one on a former principal of the Grass Valley schools: Du Pont Syle writes dramatic critiques for the Examiner and operates at Berkeley as a professor. In the former capacity he is imposing; in the latter sometimes disconcerting. He is accused by members of his class of being cynical to the verge of insulting. An Alameda member tells a story of how he was come up with, however. In calling up a student he took occasion to quiz her as to her name. “Does Gr-e-e-n-e spell Green or greeny?” he inquired, pausing to look about to catch the effect of his wit. Quick asa flash the young lady concerned responded: “Does S§-y-l-e spell Syle or silly?” and she had not time to pause for the effect. The professor clouded for a moment, but finally burst out laughing, and now Miss Greene is the beroine of the co-eds, and the professor’s class has it a little easier. oe Fuddy—What a funny thing language is!

Epiror Transvurnipt:—President MoKinley takes time from the work of -; preparing his message to Congress, 1869, now well under way, to exchange congratulations on the stroug endorsement of expansion given by the voters in every state in which the policy of the administration has made the issue, with Republican Senators and Representatives who have called on him since the elections. Among his more recent callers was Senator Kyle, of South Dakota, who said of the campaign in his state: “The issue was the support of the administration and expansion, and the result was an emphatic endorsement of the administration and its policy in the Philippines.” _ Representhat even before Congress meets, the insurrection in the Philippines will be ended, and the situation be such as té over to Congress for legislation. It. looks to meas though it would not be many days before our army has captured Aguinaldo and ended his rebellion. With the downfall of Aguinaldo willend all this talk of tha so called imperialistic movement. The elections have already shown the weakness of the anti-expansion policy, and I do not think the Democrats will dare to go to their national convention, and declare against expansion in the face of this year’s elections. By that time anti-expansion will be so dead that even the Democrats will not try to revive it.” Senator McCumber, of North Dakota, said: “Expansion in North Dakota dovsn’t mean imperialism and a big standing army. It means development of trade. We want, of course, an army of sufficient strength for an important nation.” Representative Barham, of Cal, said: “The President and his policy has the approval of the majority of the people, and the result of the elections make it certain, if it was not 80 before, that McKinley and Bryan will run against each other again. McKinley will defeat him easily.” Mrs. Elizabeth I. Joy, wife of Representative Joy, of Missouri, is actively engaged in working up sentiment against al!owirg Roberts, the polygamist Representative-elect from Utab to retain his membership of the House. She has prepared a petition, a eopy of which «he has sent to the wife of every member of the Honse of the fiftysixth Cougress, requesting that it be signed an returned to her. Lhis petition reads as follows: “We, the wives of the members-elect of the incoming hereby urge our respective husbands in their official capavity, and the fifty-sixth Congress as an organized body, to expel.from membership therespirit of our civilization end of our laws, as wellas the dignity of American womanhood’ and the purity of the American home, demand that neither he, nor any such as he, shall ever take part.in the councils of the law makers of our beloved country.” Senator Foraker said of the result in Ohio, in which he played so important a part in bringing about, and of the general result: “It was a victory for the administration, and will greatly strengthen President McKinley, and in that way have a decided effect upon Congress, and the whole countryProsperity will continue and nobody will think of any other Republican than McKinley as our candidate for the Presidency in 1900. Changes in the political situation wiil come, no doubt, within the next twelve months, but the probabilities are that they will strengthen the Republican party. The most likely changes will -be the suppression.~ of the insurrection in the Philippines, the enactment of the necessary legislation to reformand imour mercbant marine, build an Oceanic canal across the Isthmus, etc. These are all great measures, to which the American people are already committed, and the Democratic party cannot well afford to oppose them. Yet, except in the opposition to such measures, the Democrats will be without any important issue. The Democratic party seems to be bottled up, like Gen. Butler was at Bermuda Hundreds.” Democratic Sepators—Gaffery of Lvuuisiana, and Morgan, of Alabama—that tative Grosvener, of Ohio, another, “Tt_is my bonest opinion . _ allow the President to turn the matter, >. has. saved money.—Tit-Bits, in Brigham H Roberts; of Utah:—Phe+ prove our monetary system, to restore . . The admission by two prominent}: tically assured by the State elections, . was significant. It shows their ability to properly gauge the sentiment of the county, even when it is directly against the party to which they belong. Forty-Niner.

When I come into the house I have to hunt around for my slippers and everything else I happen to want; but when I used to court you, and your father would ‘come in from downtown, you would. rush around gathering up his things, wheel his easy chair up to the fire, warm his slippers. and get him both a headrest and a footrest, so that all he had to do was to drop right down and -be comfortable.
