Daniel Guggenheim, one of the Smelter brothers, and his eon, Robert, with an $8,000 Italian automobile of 120-horsepower, are chief figures in a tale of Ill-luck which has followed the purchase of the car several years ago by the elder Guggenheim. He turned It over to his son and the latter entered It in an endurance run to Seattle, starting from New York. It killed two men on the way and when It reached Seattle, where Robert Guggenheim lives, he tried to raffle it off. Charges of fraud induced him to reimburse all ticket holders. Then he traded the car for another. Frank Flanagan, of Portland, allowing $2,500 for the Italian hoodoo car. Flanagan sold the car. taking $1,000 and some bonds from E. L. Fraley.

Sometimes it seems a hopeless fight, but the newspaper without hope

isn't fit to be read. Up and at them ought to be the slogan. Newspapers

have different ways of carrying on the fight. One contemporary says: A mother who allows a 16-year-old daughter to float around the township in a top buggy until 2 a. m. with a counterfeit sport of weak jaw and weaker morals merely opens the front door to grief and disgrace. If you don't know what company your girl keeps or what time of night she turns In; your roar when the gossips get busy will sound about as pathetic as the wheeze from a jew's harp. The girl who insists on spooning with everybody in the corporate limits ought to be backed into the woodshed and relieved of her overflow of affection with a No. 1 slipper laid carelessly across her hiplets. We had sooner see a girl kiss a blind shoat through a barbed wire fence than have her change partners six nights a week in the front parlor, with the lights turned low. It is harder to marry off a girl that has been pawed over by every yap in the community than it 'is to fatten a sheep on pineapple ice. There are lots of weak-minded parents who are going up against the judgmet day with about as much show as a cross-eyed girl in a beauty show, and their children will rise up and call them blessed with the enthusiasm of a one-legged man at a club dance.

PRISONERS OF SELF.

In the solitary places of the Rocky

mountains may be found those who have left tbe world behind for various reasons. Some were broken in fortune, some broken In health and" some broken In heart. : ' ' Those broken in fortune seldom get on their financial feet again. Of these are the young-old prospectors who for many years have needed only a "grubstake" and next summer to get through the porphyry" and then wealth. They are concrete proofs that hope springs eternal.

Of those who come to repair their

health in these high altitudes and tonic air many succeed, although there be graves of tbe "tenderfeet" up there. And they of tbe broken heart? Some have found the peace they longed for, snd some still drag the ball and chain of memory and of regret. . You cannot elope from yourself! Now and then by the cabin firelight you will catch some face in repose, and with its mask off the face bears the brooding, haunting look of one who would forget, but cannot. And behind the face you can almost fancy a tormented soul like Milton's Satan Which way I turn Is hell. v Myself am hell! Such faces, however, are rare in the mountains, but you will find many philosophers. One of these philosophers dropped this sententious phrase: "It doesn't matter much where you

A SIGN OF THE TIMES. The election of Nov. 8 brought to light a number of noteworthy features, so far as Lake county is concerned. And Lake county, this newspaper takes it, is a reasonably trustworthy criteribn for the entire coutry, or at least for large sections of it. One of the noteworthy features was the fact that the socialist vote was largely in excess of what it has been in the past. At its present rate of going, the socialists two years hence, will poll 3.000 votes In Lake county.

This is no idle estimate based upon wind. It is figured out by cold ! hard calculation, the basis of Vyhich is the recent election returns compared with those of other elections. The adherents of both the prevailing parties, the democratic and the republican, may draw but one conclusion from the growing socialistic vote. This Is that people are dissatified with the old parties and the men they advance Into office. They want new blood, new principles and new standards. They want something different. This beating "about, back and forth, from the republican to the democratic and vice versa no longer spells hope to those who have found taxation somewhat of a burden, and who have become disgusted and nauseated by the exposure of corruption and graft rampant on both sides. It were well for both democrats and republicans to look well to their laurels, to contemplate themselves, Introspectively, retrospectively and every other way. It behooves those officials now in office, and soon to take office, to put forth their earnest efforts toward accomplishing what the people look to them to do, lest in a few years, the high places may know them and the representatives of thejr parties no more.- " - -
