THE PRESIDENT'S HANDS OFF OCCASIONALLY we see in the papers here and there a statement to the effect that the President has met with defeat in recent primary elections. There is so much iteration and reiteration of these reports that it seems they must emanate from some propagandish source. It is very well known that the President has taken no hand in any of the primaries held so far this year, nor will he probably do so in any of the contests yet to come, for he is too wise and level-headed a man to think of doing so-for an instant. We have seen the statement printed that the President is the luckiest man who has been in politics in this country for many years, but we do not attribute his success to a matter of luck as much as to the good hard common sense which characterizes him. While the defeat of Senator McKinley of Illinois and Senator Pepper in Pennsylvania may have occasioned regret among their friends at Washington, the President pursued his usual policy of hands off, and it was up to the Republicans of these states to render their decision. The President can have no objection to Congressman Vare's success in Pennsylvania, for the latter has been his consistent supporter in the lower house. The defeat of Governor Pinchot could not occasion regret at the White House, yet not a word has emanated from the President regarding that primary, and probably not a word will come. He took no hand in the Oregon primary, nor has he so far taken a hand in the California primary. The result in Oregon was brought about at a Republican primary, and it was for the Republicans of that state to say what candidate they would choose to represent them. The President is stronger today with the American people than he was two years ago, when he swept the country by the The President is stronger today with the American people than he was two years ago, when he swept the country by the largest majority ever attained at a presidential election. The senatorial oligarchy which existed at the time of his accession to office, and which was free in its criticism of him, has faded into nothingness, and the present congress has certainly followed his lead in every important matter before it for consideration. Our foreign debtor nations are settling their accounts with us according to the President's desires. He is reducing public expenditures and cutting down taxation. Five years ago the budget amounted to five and a half billion dollars. This year it amounts to a trifle more than three billion dollars. We are paying off our great war debt and the country is prosperous and doing well. We regard the President as one of the greatest men who ever sat in the White House, and we believe he is stronger and better liked among the people than he has ever been. He is too wise and far-sighted a statesman to mingle in local political scraps, nor has he done so. Where do these persistent reports come from that he is meeting defeat in each and every one of these primary elections? Not a word has come from Washington whether the President would stand for renomination, but we make this prediction: That there is not a man nor set of men in this country powerful enough to stop the next Republican convention from stampeding for the President, and California is going to be in that stampede. A SERPENT'S STING A YOUNG man of the name of Arthur James of Riverside, working on his father's ranch at Moreno, came upon a huge rattler, which he dispacthed. As he was severing the rattles, the snake flared back and stung him on the wrist. He opened the wound with his knife, sucked out the poison, got into his car and drove rapidly into town. His family physician took him to a hospital, where he has been in a critical condition. We trust he will speedily recover. Among ranchers and mountainneers there is an unwritten law never to sever a serpent's rattles from the tail, no matter how lifeless it may appear to be, unless some one is holding down its head. Men have been stung time and again by rattlers supposed to have been killed when doing this very thing. The pain seems to be so great, the reptile comes back long enough to strike the man inflicting the injury. We have witnessed a man preparing to sever rattles from a serpent which had been apparently clubbed to death, when another man intervened, calling upon him not to do so until its head was pinioned to the ground. While the rattles were being severed the varmint writhed in its agony, seemingly bent upon getting away. An Italian in a neighboring vineyard, while examining his vines to see how the coming crop was setting, was stung by a rattler, which was lodged in the branches waiting for birds. The man hastened into town and obtained medical attention. He shortly returned to his ranch, and a number of friends coming up to call on him, having heard of the occurrence, he volunteered to show them how it was done. He went with them to his vineyard, located the vine and, as he was separating the branches, was stung We have witnessed a man preparing serpent which had been apparently clubbed to death, when another man intervened, calling upon him not to do so until its head was pinioned to the ground.

He went with them to his vineyard, located the vine and, as he was separating the branches, was stung again by the same snake. This time the varmint was dispatched, and when the rattles were taken off its head was securely pinned to the earth. The man was critically ill for several weeks, but recovered. In looking over our files of fifty years ago, in search of information for the historical society, we came upon this item in the issue of March 26, 1876: "A post office has been established at Pasadena and Josiah Locke appointed postmaster. Where is Pasadena?" Well, now, what do you know about that! Our distinguished young friend, Burton Smith, who broadcasts interesting news items every evening, usually winds up by telling his hearers a funny story. This very properly brings him a roar of laughter. The other evening he spilled this one: That the Chimes of Normandy was composed by Gilbert and Sullivan! Burt is such a funny fellow!
