Boundaries Bill Not Read
' During tin- morning session, where
there was nothing before I lie convention,
and the delegates were exchanging bo-
quets. a motion was made to read and
net upon the county boundaries bill.
Quick as a flash President Murray was
all attention, and rising: to Ills feet lie
flourished a printed copy of the boundar-
ies bill before the convention, and sai l
"There is no use In wasting the time <>f
this convention in comparing the bill.
Jt has been printed and Is now In the
hands of every member. No changes
have been made, and 1 can see no use in
■comparing it." 0
All the other measures have been read
In open convention and compared wlln
the original to see that no errors oc-
curred, lnii Mi. Murray was determined
to hold the county boundaries open to
the last moment. The president does
not propose that the delegates shall huv\
un opportunity of airing their feelings In
bpen convention and Is using every
means in his power to prevent the com-
paring with the original.
A large number of the delegates have
departed for their homes, becoming tir-
ed of the "boss" rule and gug system
being placed upon them.
It is doubtful whether there will be :t
quorum present when the adjournment
hour is reached. It Is stated that a
quorum will be called for today when the
final action is sought. to be taken. If
this is carried out the delegates will
have to return or the convention will
stand adjourned.

The other day a little bevy of peoplo
entered a railway restaurant and took
possession of a table. There w* re four
children to be^in with, all of school age
besides a toddling youngster. There
was a young into appearing woman who
seemed to hi- acting in the capacity of a
mother's helper and a woman, with a
good many wrinkles on her face who was
plainly the mother of the little tribe.
Last of all came the father, well loaded
down with bundles and of a serious not
to sa> solemn demeanor. He took his
seat at the head of the table and told the
waiter to bring four orders of chops and
potatoes with a -side" of cold tongue.
The family was evidently on its way to a
summer resort and good cheer was abun-
dant and expectation ran high. A happy
healthy harmonious family it seemed to
be, both in quality and iu quantity, the
kind of family that President Roosevelt
would approve
At a little side table in the same res-
taurant sat ,i gentleman and lady watch-
ing the pretty scene How Jolly they all
seem," said the gentleman. To which his
companion replied, "all hut the father
Do you notlcs how grave he is and I don t

enduranc e of the father of a Mmlly. Per-
haps his daily effort with hands or brain
is the only thing that keeps off starva-
tion from those children. And there must
be millions like him who have the sole
responsibility for other lives."
Fndoubtedly there are. Not only do
countless fathers win the bread for wives
and children, but brothers do it for sis-
ters and sons for mothers. U has always
been so since civilization begun. oiie
half the World carrier the other half on it
back. Socialistic theories break down it

can ever relieve the true man of the dutv

no such motive work might become un-

Hut do those for whom he works al-
ways appreciate what a load rests upon
"fathers" shoulders? is it any wonder
that sometimes his face gets tense and
the lines in it deepen? These are days of
tremendous strain and competition in the
industrial world. Sometimes when a man
kisses his wife good by In the morning In-
hardly knows what will be his fortunes
