Colorado Statesman

PATRONIZE MERCHANTS WHO ADVERTISE IN THIS PAPER THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY DANGER OF PROHIBITION VOL. XIX. DANGER PROH The Colorado Statesman has for several years pointed out the danger that would follow in the wake of Prohibition, which, regardless of its consequence, would lay waste many of our greatest industries. Judge from the proposed amendment that will be submitted at the November election. Colorado will be made a dry state unless the people are alive to their duty and vote against the amendment. The interest of the state and that of those who have invested their money must be protected. It is not a question of who shall drink or who shall go thirsty. But a question as to whether the state shall advance along lawful lines or be classified among the reactionary ones that can present to the capitalist and laborer nothing but taxes and idleness. In every fight thus far this paper has in a small measure done its part in presenting to the people the true condition of affairs, and in this instance will say that the large increase in population and the enormous increase of capital within its borders would not have been had the state been in the Prohibition list. "This no sane person will deny." It must be admitted that the farmer, laborer and the railroads are benefitted by conditions as they now exist, and that the government, national and state, derives a large revenue from this business, which is conducted according to law, and that our city would be deprived of hundreds of thousands of dollars annually that it now collects as taxes, etc., the burden of which would fall upon the shoulders of the "already overburdened" taxpayers, the result of which would render the state "and particularly so Denver" a very undesirable place in which to live. We are a part and parcel of this community. Its interest should be one of our first thoughts. Her interest should be protected, her fair treatment of capital and labor should not be submitted to the fanatical torture of the Prohibitionist. This warning is given so that every voter may have ample time to study the question thoroughly, so that his or her ballot may be cast intelligently which should certainly be against a State Wide Prohibition. SOUTHERNER SCORES AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION The three Negroes who are already members of the American Bar Association are men who have won recognition in their chosen work. There is not the slightest evidence that they are not creditable to the bar in every way. The adoption of a resolution isolating them as undesirables is an indefensible insult to unof- fending humanity, but it is even more objectionable as service of notice that in so far as may be, the door of hope in the legal profession is to be closed to Negroes, in violation of the spirit of the republic, the Constitution and the times. Surely lawyers should be the last to do that which is essentially lawless, and a body of lawyers made up of men from every state ought to be ashamed to tell the world that in America the Negro is still denied a square deal.—Louisville Courier-Journal. WHITE SOLDIERS SHOOT UP DELAWARE CITY Newcastle, Del., Aug. 27.—The suburb of Dobbinsville, near here, is terrorstricken, following the "shooting up" of the town today by members of the Eighty-first Coast Artillery. None of the 700 inhabitants of the town was injured. Several of the soldiers engaged in rifle practice at the state rifle range just south of this city are said to have been worsted in a dispute with some young men who reside in Dobbinsville, Desiring revenge, the soldiers, armed with heavy-bore rifles, started to shoot up the town. Citizens crawled under beds, hid in closets, and fled in terror to their cellars when the shooting commenced. For more than twenty minutes the fusilade of lead was kept up. Bullets crashed through windows, glanced from the sides of dwellings and sung by the heads of terror-stricken residents. From 50 to 100 shots were fired. Twenty men are said to have taken part in the firing. The main point of attack seemed to be a Clark street house, occupied by Mr. and Mrs. William Mohr and their four children, ranging in age from twelve to eighteen years, and Mr. and Mrs. John Corbett and son, five years old. Nearly every window was shot from the house, and so hot was the fusilade that bricks were shot from their fastenings on the window ledges. Mohr appeared at the window and implored the soldiers to withdraw, but a shot aimed directly at him caused him to retire in haste. Mayor Rodney has taken up the affssir with the commandant at Fort Dupont and a courtmartial has been ordered. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 14 1912. State Hist & Nat Hist Biosci State House HANTS WH ADC THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO UNREST AMONG RACE LEADERS Washington.—The often repeated statements by prominent colored men, as well as by prominent white men, that the Negro should evince more interest in and concern for the many economic questions that are up for discussion and solution instead of sticking so close to the race problem appears to be harkened to if the hundreds of letters pouring in to prominent men of Washington from the colored men in every section of the country can be accepted as an interest and concern. These letters bear on the so called initiative, referendum and recall of decisions now widely discussed and agitated from coast to coast. It appears that the colored people of the country, and especially those in the Sauth and close Northern states, have suddenly awakened to the fact that such a change might contain a "sleeper" that would completely nullify the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the federal constitution as any repeal of them by congress. There is not a single question under discussion today the finality if which does not affect in some measure the colored people. A small question bearing harmless aspects may embody large issues, the adoption of which may mean weal or woe for the race. The referendum is a high sounding word, and because of this fact many of our people may be deceived into the belief that they are beyond its reach. As citizens we sometimes feel that we do not always get the same justice in courts of law and from juries that is meted out to others. But this fact should not argue against the stability of our institutions, which are the product of laws that are permanent and organic. If the Negro does not always get what is due to him in the courts when the issue is a denial of his civil rights it is not because of the nonexistence of the statute in his favor. Regardless of these iniquities, the law remains fixed in the statutes, and his psychological moment may eventually come when he and those rights to which he is entitled will be on a par with any other man's right and justice will be awarded him. But not so if the fixed laws are to be changed by those who have not the interest of the whole people at heart. Suppose in any community a question of denial to the Negro of certain rights was proposed under the recall of decisions. What would happen? A majority of the people, being white and more or less infected with race prejudice, would vote these rights away from him, and all the Negro votes in the country --- would not be able to stem the tide. Under the Australian ballot system of voting, where secrecy is jealously observed and preserve, this could be done by white men, regardless of party affiliations, who publicly profess friendship for the colored people Again, suppose a southern state should pass a law disfranchising the Negro, or any northern state, for the matter of that. That disfranchising law would immediately get into the courts and, on appeal to the supreme court, would be held unconstitutional. Then if the right to recall decisions existed the decision of the court would be taken before the people and by them reversed and the constitutionality of the law confirmed, and the Negro would be out of politics and out of every right vouchsafed by the constitution. There is hardly a state in the South where the entire white vote would not be cast for the disfranchisement of the Negro. To say that the race is much alarmed over the possibility of such a law being enacted is putting it mildly. SAMUEL COOLERIDGE TAYLOR DEAD London.—Samuel Cooleridge-Taylor, the music composer, died September 2. He was born in 1875 of Anglo-African parentage, his father being a West-African and his mother an English woman. His musical talents were a natural inheritance and as soon as his rudimentary education was finished he entered the Royal College of Music, London, and studied composition under Prof. C. Villiers Stanford. After graduation he wrote the music for the Birmingham and Leeds festivals. Since then his works have reached a large volume and include among others a cantata based on Longfellow's Hiawatha, and a volume of twenty-four Negro melodies for the pianoforte. He was married in 1899 to Miss Jessie S. Fleetwood-Walmsley, and is survived by the widow, a son and a daughter. Washington, Sept. 1.—The percentage of mulattoes among the Negro population of West Virginia is increasing rapidly, according to figures out today by the Census Bureau and is higher than the percentage in the country at large. Out of a total of 64 173 Negroes in West Virginia in 1910 there were 20,879 mulattoes. The percentage of mulattoes in 1910 was 2.5 compared with 28.6 in 1890 and 24.1 in 1870. The Census Bureau in a statement issued today says: "It may be noted, however, that an increase in the mulatto element does not necessarily imply increasing intermixture with the whites, since the children born of marriages between blacks and mulattoes would be mulattoes according to the Census definition. RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES Twenty-nine colored employees in the Treasury service at Atlanta Ga., are paid salaries aggregating $19,116 per annum. Pratt, Kan., Sept. 1.—Mrs. I. B. Birkins, a Negro woman of this city, was left $10,000 in the will of J. W. Creech, a banker of Herington, who died August 6. Mrs. Birkins, was an orphan child, 3 years old, when the Creech family took her to rear. They had no children of their own. She lived with the Creech family nearly 24 years. San Domingo, August 24.—The relations between the Dominican Republic and Haiti have been placed on a much more friendly footing by the visit of a Dominican Government Commission to Haiti. The Commissioners returned here recently and reported they had been received with the utmost cordiality by the Haitian Government officials and that any idea of hostility between the two republics was baseless. Lawton, Okla., Sept. 6.—The 273 Apache Indians held upon the Fort Sill reservation are nothing but slaves for the United States government. They are preparing to hold a prayer meeting next week as they believe that the next session of Congress will grant them entire freedom. Although it is an understood fact they do all the work on the reservation without any compensation when given their freedom, they will be placed above the Negroes who have fought, bled and died for the country but never against it. Chicago, Ill., Sept. 3.—Two things have recently stirred Chicago. First, the meeting of the Business League, and secondly, the generous gift to Negro education on the part of Julius Rosenwald. In some publications the gift of Mr. Rosenwald to Negro education has been misunderstood. It has been stated by several papers that this gift of $25,000 goes to Tuskegee, which is denied. The money is simply placed into the hands of Booker T. Washington to be distributed as he deems wise among the smaller schools of the South. Memphis, Tenn.—Robert R. Church, millionaire colored man of this city, is dead, age seventy-four years. Church, before the war, was a slave, but when the NO 1 strife ended he went to work for a wholesale merchant here. Saving his money he entered the saloon business and out of this enterprise he bought real estate. Church's wealth is estimated at $1,000,000. He owned 350 houses besides valuable business property. He was one of the few Negroes that subscribed to a fund to help entertain the confederate veterans at their annual reunions. He gave $1,000 to the fund fifteen years ago and has continued the subscription. Cleveland, Ohio, August 28. After hearing a vocalist in a moving-picture show sing "Every Race Has a Flag But the Coon" Rev. J. Lennox, of this city, a bishop of the Zion African Evangelical Church, determined that the colored people should have a flag. Today he publicly exhibited the result of weeks of work of desiegning an official emblem as striking as it is original. The flag, religious in its significance, is of red, white, blue and purple. It carries 12 stars in a field of purple and has 12 bars of red, white and blue. The purple represents the robe worn by Christ just before the crucifixion; the red that "though our sins be as scarlet, they shall be made white as snow," the white the purity of the saints, and the blue the Negro's loyalty to the United States. The 12 bars represent the Apostles and the minor prophets. A PARK FOR COLORED PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA Los Angeles, Calif.—Luna park is to pass from the control of the Thompson & Snow Amusement Co. into the hands of W H, Washington of 1607 Tobermon street, a wealthy Negro, if the negotiations now under way are completed. The management will cater especially to Negro patronage. The price to be paid by Mr. Washington is $70,000, and the property will be turned over to him in thirty days. He will form a company it is said, with members of his own race as stockholders. According to Washington, Luna park will fill a long-felt want for the Negroes of Southern California, affording them a place where they can gather for picnics and celebrations. If present plans are carried out, an inland bathing beach for 1000 persons, an indoor plunge, medicinal baths and picnic grounds will be fitted up.

AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS One of the most interesting of the delegations that attended the Inter- national Conference on the Negro at Tuskegee Institute, April last, was that from the Barbados, West Indies, consisting of Washington Harper, A. Rawle Parkinson, and B. Blliott Du- rant. On their return to the Barbados, at a large and enthusiastic public meeting, they submitted a conprehen- sive report of their trip to Tuskegee Institute. The report was taken up mainly with a description of the work of the departments of the institution. All the Barbados papers gave ex- tended notice concerning the meeting and the report of the delegation. The following account is taken from the Barbados Standard, Bridgetown: A large and enthustastic public meeting was held at the Carnegie Hall to receive the report of the delegates who represented this island at the recent conference at Tuskegee. The chair was filled by Mr. D. A, Wiles, and among other prominent persons present were Sir Frederick Clarke, K. C. M. G., and Lady Clarke, who both took much interest in the proceedings. After the report containing valuable information collected by the delegates in connection with industrial educa- tion during their visit to America had been read and received with manifest appreciation, several resolutions were moved, and some very Interesting ad- dresses given. The objects of the resolutions were (1) to accord a hear ty welcome to the delegates on their return to the {sland,—moved by Mr. H. F, Taltt, seconded by Mr. Ormond Murray; (2) to express the hope that the general community would benefit by the information brought back by the delegates,—moved by Mr. W. Brandford, seconded by Mr. W. 8. Marston; (3) to express confidence in the government and legislature of this island that they would afford means of industrial education to the people—moved by Mr. A. W. Ford; (4) to express the gratitude of the general community to Dr. Booker T. Washing- ton and his staff for their kindness in generously supplying information and otherwise assisting the Barbados dele- gates to achieve success in their mis- sion to Tuskegee; also suggesting that a visit of Dr. Washington and his wife to these shores would be viewed with appreciation, and pledging the neces- sary funds by popular subscription for their entertainment—moved by Mr. C. P. Clarke, solicitor general, and seconded by Mr. C. L. Elder; (6) to thank the various principals and their assistants at Tuskegee, and also Dr. S. Jones and other citizens of New York and Brooklyn, for the valuable help given by them which enabled the dele- gates to carry out thelr task,—moved by Mr, V. B. ©. Hart, seconded by Mr. Estwick; (6) to express the thanks of the meeting to all those persons who 80 generously subscribed the requisite funds to send the delegates to Tuskegee—moved by Mr. H. W. Lofty, M. C. P., seconded by Rev. J. R. Nichols, acting inspector of schools; and (7) to propose that a copy of the foregoing resolutions he forwarded to the government, assuring them at the same time of the willingness of the delegates to disseminate among the children attending the public schools the information and knowledge gained during thelr visit to America,—moved by Mr. J. 8. Maughan, seconded by Mr. Brandford. ‘These resolutions were all unanimously adopted. At the conclusion an exceedingly interesting address was given by Mr. Washington Harper, one of the dele- gates on their visit to Tuskegee, The sixteenth annual Hampton negro conference dealt with the fol- lowing vital subjects: Work of In- dustrial Supervisors in Virginia; Progress in Rural Schools; Negroes and the Census of 1910; White and Colored Death Rates; Negro Popula- tion and Illiteracy; Negroes in Vir- ginia; Organization Work among Vir- ginia Negroes; Management of Board- ing Departments; Raising Money for Schools; Cultivation of Corn; Public Health; Minister and Community; Recreation and Amusement; Move- ment of Negroes to the Cities. ‘There are now seventeen colored teachers at work in eighteen counties of Virginia, under the direction | of Hampton institute, trying to secure the more complete co-operation of parents, ministers, and teachers in im- proving school life, These workers are carrying on school demonstration work, which ts giving new Hfe and fresh hope to many neglected country districts.

It is called Hadley park and was formally dedi- cated by the board of park commis- stoners several days ago. Among those present were Mayor Hillary B. Howse and Major McWhirter, chairman of the board of park cimmissioners. Dr. R- F. Boyd made the speech of accept- ance on behalf of the negro citizens. Benjamin F, Carr presided. Mayor Howse paid a high tribute to the park commissioners, and during his address was interrupted on several occasions by the applause of the ne- gro citizens. “T'll declare,” he exclaimed, “no city in the country has the colored popula- tion that Nashville has. There is a great future for us here, and {t makes no difference, in the great struggle now impending, who 1s elected presti- dent of the country, we people here in this section, black and white alike, will go on building up this section, our state and the nation. White people and black people here in the south will work side by side. We cannot get along without you, and you cannot get along without us, “As chief executive of the city of Nashville, I take great pleasure in ex- tending to you, my colored fellow cit- izens, this park, the only one of its kind in the United States dedicated to the colored people.” In his address Major M’Whirter said: “I know of no city that has shown greater consideration for your race in the matter of parks than ours in securing this valuable property, situ- ated as it is, immediately between and approximate to two of the most prom- inent negro schools tn our Southland. Much will depend on your behavior while visiting the park and with that as the standard you will be judged. It is not difficult to conduct yourselves in such a way as to command respect —and I wish a larger number of young negroes were here to hear this—but It is quite easy for some to bring de- rision on thousands, and while doing this, they have very little considera- tion for those who have a larger de- gree of self-respect.” In his speech of acceptance Dr. Boyd said in part: “Our gateful thanks go out to Mayor Howse for the broad and lberal spirit which he has manifested in co-operat- ing with you in securing this site for our park. We know something of the opposition you have met and over- come. We are thankful to the press of the elty and the hundreds of friends who have indorsed the movement. “We who are born and reared in the Southland know that the best class of white citizens are our friends, and we are going to live here in this civilization with prayer and hope. We were born here, and we will live and die here. “We want to assure you and reas- sure you of the gratitude of my race. We are interested in every movement for the betterment of Nashville, for the whole people of Nashville. You can rely upon us to make Hadley park all that it should be as a moral force in the Ife of our people. You may rest assured that our people will sup: port you in carrying out any regula- tions you may adopt for the manage- ment of this park to the end that {t will be a safe place for our boys and girls.” When fate bowls at our {deals she usually makes a ten-strike. Joe Jeanette's pronunciamento that he would make Jack Johnson fight him or seek his seclusion afforded by retirement may bring the heavy- weight champion of the world to New York to defend his title in a bout there.

C., and the popular fifth impresario has opened negotiations with the dusky title holder to appeat at the Garden Gibson intends to adhere to the de- cision of the state athletic commis. sion to bar Johnson from fighting a white man in New York, and for that reason Billy has secured Jeanette's name to articles calling for a match with Johnson. ‘The entire affair is now up to the champion. Shoppers are in a class to them- selves, entirely distinct from buyers. Strange that we are willing to for- give people for changing their opinions only when they do so to espouse our views. There is some endurance like a dam —the more it holds back the greater will be the destruction when {t gives way. It usually happens that the faults you see in another are on a par with the faults that others see in you. A woman can rarely “makeup” with- out “changing her countenance.” Unselfishness is but a name unless he who claims {t as a virtue possesses geif-control. GROWN IN U.S. GOVERNMENT CROP REPORTING BOARD SUBMITS FIGURES ON THIS YEAR'S YIELD. GORN, SPUDS AND OATS y SPRING WHEAT, BARLEY, RYE AND BUCKWHEAT REPORTED AWAY ABOVE AVERAGE. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Washington. — Bumper crops of corn, white potatoes, spring wheat, oats, barley, rye and buckwheat were forecasted by the crop reporting board of the Department of Agriculture in its September report. Corn probably will reach 2,995,000, 000 bushels, exceeding the record crop of 1906 by about 68,000,000 bush- els, the crop of last year by 464,000, 000 bushels and the crop of 1910 by 109,000,000 bushels. ‘The potato yield this year, it is es- timated, will be 398,000,000, overstep- ping the bumper crop of 1904 by about 9,000,000 bushels, the short crop of last year by about 105,000,000 and the crop of 1910 by about 49,000,000.

The working balance in the treasury was $90,500,000. Half of this amcunt, it is said, could easily be de- posited in the national banks if neces sary. HORSE PLAGUE CURE FOUND.

Parks has been nominated for governor over Philip B. Stewart, progressive candidate, by a majority of from 2,500 to 3,000, as shown in the reports from twenty-five counties, the antl-organization Republicans asserted that Stewart has carried thirty-eight counties of the state by 12,106 to 11, 840, Stewart appears to be in the lead. Republican state headquarters de- clare that of the thirty-five counties as yet unreported, Parks will receive majorities in three-fourths of them. ‘he counties which have been tabu: lated by the Republican organization give Parks a lead of 1,519 over Stew- art. James H. Brown, progressive candi- date against Charles W. Waterman for the vacancy term in the United States Senate, has been defeated, according to the Republican statement; but Brown has been running neck and neck with Stewart, and only the offi- cial returns can set at rest the con: flicting claims between the regulars and the progressives.

It grows out of the idea that "all Coons look alike," and are alike in habits and disposition. This idea is fanned every day by the white people with whim we come in contact. The average white man preaches the doctrine that the crap shooter and dary "nymph du pave" belong in the same class with the hard working and honest man and woman of our race whose efforts are upward and onward. There is the differences among our people, just the same as among the white, and we have got to recognize them and lend our best efforts to the uplifting of the honest and industrious. We must be broad and charitable in all that we do, seeking ever to instill the idea of appreciation of the honest and efforts of those who lift themselves by their bootstraps above natal conditions. In this way we multiply avenues of employment for the people of our own race. When we can have business houses like the other race, employing our boys and girls, we will have made a long step in the solution of the problem. This cannot be accomplished by carrying your trade to the business houses of other races, but only by keeping as much of your earnings as possible among your own people. The white man is trying every day to corral the Negro's earnings and votes.

So you be church liar and the lay liar, after echerous, for he wrongfully uses t to conceal the rottenness of his Every good man is a Christian to the extent of his virtues, whether he belongs to church or not; and he may at the same time be a good politician. The fact that a man is a church member does not excuse him from the responsibilities of the life temporal. He has the right to enjoy participation in political contests in such a way as to make the latter better for his having had something to do with them. But he has no right to lie about it, nor to vote more than once a day for the same man. He of all men, should set the example of honesty. He should be truthful and open-handed, but not always open-mouthed. He has no right to rob a man of his good name or anything else; but, particularly, of his good name among men. A church member who lies about a political candidate is a meaner liar than the man who hasn't much of a reputation for truth and veracity anyway. In so doing he not only prostitutes his own character, but he bedraggles the throne of the God he pretends to love with the filth of his own wickedness. Mayor Williams probably called him and his kind by their right name when he designated them as "iliars and scoundrels." That's the plain Alglo-Saxon of it. So you see there isn't much difference between the church liar and the lay liar, after all, only the former infamously more treacherous, for he wrongfully uses the cloak in which he devoutly sings psalms to conceal the rottenness of his hypocritical body. A DISTANT BROTHERHOOD. to strife between me and thee, I am patriarch in the dawn of civilization, dear to the same grazing ground. Old, in fact, as civilization itself, and conscience of conquering nations, no of weaker tribes. But this Bible been maintained without a struggle the ties of brotherhood grow weak,ized or when the outlook for futureion of the glut in which a single big brother, generally, who is n "Let there be no strife between me and thee, I pray thee, for we are brethren." Thus spake the patriarch in the dawn of civilization, when two tribes, by chance, approached near to the same grazing ground. The brotherhood plea is a very old one, as old, in fact, as civilization itself, and it has always seemed to be a prod to the conscience of conquering nations, restraining them from the utter annihilation of weaker tribes. But this Biblical ideal of a common brotherhood has not been maintained without a struggle, for man's greed for conquest is great, and the ties of brotherhood grow weak and dim when one's own pasture is jeopardized or when the outlook for future grazing fields seem to forecast a restriction of the glut in which a single prosperous tribe has revealed. And it is the big brother, generally, who is most filled with dread, and who most threatens to break the idealistic bonds of kinship. The white races of the earth, leading for centuries in the upward march of civilization, have held vaguely before them in their all-conquering way, this idea of human brotherhood, and doubtless the savage instinct of the conqueror has been restrained and the welfare of all humanity enhanced by this appeal to a feeling greater than sentiment which seems planted in the hearts of all humanity. But in the height of his greatest and most wonderful power, the white man is awakening to the fact that his leadership of civilization's hosts and his domination of the world's rich pastures are to be finally challenged by weaker brothers, who, for centuries upon centuries, were content to enjoy what seemed only necessary for their present need. The rise of Japan into world prominence, and the advent of her sons into fields heretofore solely occupied by the white man, have agitated Christendom more than anything else that has developed in the world's history for centuries. The common people—the populace—always restive under the plea of human brotherhood—makes no effort to hide their hatred of every racial stock other than their own. The aggregated wisdom of Caucasian nations is being focused upon plans for the maintenance of the peace of the world, while seeking to adjust and adjust the law of brotherly relations which shall govern the new conditions arising. And with the prospect that other yellow nations will follow Japan, and the possibility that this wonderful awakening is destined to touch the buried intellects of the darker nations and tribes, with their millions of blinded souls, that long-nursed instinct of brotherhood in the breast of the greater brother fades into fear and distrust, and in its stead arises the latent instincts of savagery and the curbed but potent hatred which denies both the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God. W. H. WM. H. TAFT: aft in his book, "Four Aspects of Public Law IS MORE FOOLISH, NOTHING MORE USE WITH SOUND PUBLIC POLICY, WHICH ON ACCOUNT OF THE CONSTITUTION COMMUNITY IS INCAPABLE OF enforcement for such a law as a prohibition.

PEOPLE OF OUR VARIOUS COMMUNITIES ADJO CITIES AND TOWNS A PROPERTY WHEREVER THE LOCAL SUGRANTING LICENSES. LICENSES WHERE THE SENTIMENT IS OPPOSITES IS AS IT SHOULD BE. In this campaign is not the saloon, for the authority to outlaw the saloon whenever President Taft in his book, "Four Aspects of Public Duty," contends that: "NOTHING IS MORE FOOLISH, NOTHING MORE UTTERLY AT VARIANCE WITH SOUND PUBLIC POLICY, THAN TO ENACT A LAW WHICH ON ACCOUNT OF THE CONDITIONS SURROUNDING A COMMUNITY IS INCAPABLE OF ENFORCEMENT." The unit of enforcement for such a law as a prohibition enactment is the police unik. Whenever an unsought law is forced upon a community, enforcement is nigh impossible. In the larger cities of the several states that have adopted STATE-WIDE PROHIBITION there is no enforcement and the sale of liquor is carried on in marked defiance of law. Public officials in whom the responsibility for enforcement rests, conform themselves to local sentiment. It is a notorious fact, that in many of the cities in prohibition states, officials have relinguished their honor for personal gain, and are waxing rich in private "RAKE OFF," collecting as personal tribute, a large amount of revenue from law-violators for the granting of special privileges. Rum-sellers, bootleggers and blind-pig operators carry on their vocations without fear of interruption and the vilest sort of strong alcoholic decoctions are dispensed, openly. We charge that in the prohibition state of Maine there are operat ing in flagrant violation of the law, hundreds of bar-rooms that are as accessible as any similar institutions in Colorado and we shall prove this statement through testimony that will be offered by the governor of the state, the two United States senators and leading members of the clergy of Maine. With the sentiment in Maine opposed to prohibition the law cannot be enforced any more than it could be enforced in Colorado LET THE PEOPLE OF OUR VARIOUS COMMUNITIES RULE IN COLORADO CITIES AND TOWNS A PROHIBITION POLICY IS IN FORCE WHEREVER THE LOCAL SENTIMENT IS OPPOSED TO GRANTING LICENSES. LICENSES ARE GRANTED ONLY WHERE THE SENTIMENT IS OPPOSED TO PROHIBITION. THIS IS AS IT SHOULD BE. The issue in this campaign is not the saloon, for the voters of our state have the authority to outlaw the saloon whenever a majority so desire. THE ISSUE IN THIS CAMPAIGN IS: ARE THE PEOPLE O OF OUR STATE CAPABLE SELF-GOVERNMENT?

YES NO X HIGH MAINE OFFICIALS ADD TO TESTIMONY OF GOVERNOR PLASTED. Say Prohibition Has Never Prohibited. By Attorney General Pattengall of Maine; "As attorney general of our state I have had ample opportunity to witness the shortcomings of our statewide prohibitory law. Fifty years of experience has proven that a prohibition law cannot be enforced in communities where the sentiment of the people is opposed to such a law. Maine would be far better off with a local option enactment such as other New England states have adopted." By Cyrus Davies, Secretary of State, Maine: "The time is not far distant when the people of Maine will discard their prohibitory law for a saner measure. Prohibition was put into the constitution of our state by 48,000 majority. If a vote on this question could be had now, the law would be taken out of the constitution by an overwhelming majority." Voters, stop and reflect. The people of Maine are clamoring for just such a law as we now have on the statute books of our state. Would it be prudent to repeal our present law for a measure the people of Maine have given a fair trial and are striving to be rid of?

Does Colorado want her wise and tested local option laws repealed and enforcement of the laws taken from the hands of the city officials and placed in those of the state authorities? This will happen if state-wide prohibition is voted for. Does Colorado want a low tax rate or a heavy burden of taxation which is inevitable under prohibition? Does Colorado want a decreased revenue by abolishing the saloon license without diminishing the sale or use of liquor? That is what has occurred in prohibition states. Is there any reason to suppose Colorado will be different from all the rest? Is not local option and local self-government the right way, the best way, the most practical way, to decide the license issue? "Prohibition in Maine has provoked the sardonic laughter of the other forty-seven states of the Union," says the Boston Transcript. The population of Maine has increased eighteen per cent. in the last fifty years. During the same period the population of Colorado has increased more than one hundred per cent FOR THE WINTER DAYS METHODS OF PUTTING AL WAYS POPULAR APPLE. Canned, They Are a Welcome Addition to the Cold Weather Menu—Preserved Crab Apple—Ingredients with Apple Butter. Canned Apples—Peel one-half peck of tart apples, cut them in quarters and remove cores; as soon as prepared, put the apples into cold water to which the juice of one lemon has been added. Have ready five pints of syrup, put the apples into five quart jars, fill them up with the syrup, close tightly, and place the jars in a boiler with the water coming to within an inch of the top of them, and cook about twenty minutes. For the syrup, put three and one-half pounds of sugar and two and one-half pints of water in a preserving kettle, stirring until nearly boiling and always removing the scum that rises. Use as directed. Preserved Crab Apple—Remove cores from two quarts of sound crab apples, using a small apple corer; then immediately drop the apples into cold water to keep them from discoloring. Put into a preserving kettle two pounds of sugar and one pint of water; let the syrup boll a few minutes, removing scum the while, and then put in the apples, letting them boil until tender without losing shape. Put the apples carefully into jars, fill these up with the syrup, seal and set away. Apple Butter — Wash and cut up without peeling one-half peck of tart apples; put them in a preserving kettle, adding one quart of clder; cover the kettle and boll the fruit until tender. When cooked, remove the fruit from the fire and rub it through a sieve; return the pulp to the kettle, place it over a slow fire and boll it thirty minutes, stirring all the while. Then measure the pulp, and to each quart put two cupfuls of sugar; also add one-half teaspoonful each of ground cloves and cinnamon and boll twenty minutes. Put the sauce into stone or glass jars and seal them tightly. Apple Sweet — Peel and cut on half peck of large sweet apples into halves or quarters and drop them at once into cold water; then place them in a preserving kettle, covering them only with water, and boil until tender. Then remove the apples from the kettle and lay the pieces so as not to break them up on a large flat platter. In the meanwhile place two pounds of sugar and two pints of water over the fire, adding the juice and peel of two large lemons. When the syrup bolis put in the apples and cook them five minutes more. Fill the jars with syrup after the apples are in them and seal. Ginger Apples.—Peel one-half peck of medium-sized tart apples and cut them into quarters; remove cores and drop apples at once into cold water, adding the juice of one lemon. Pick over and wash two ounces of green ginger and then cut it up into small pieces. Place the preserving kettle with three pounds of sugar and one quart of water over the fire, drop in the ginger and boll five minutes; then put in the apples and cook them until a straw will pierce them easily. Remove the apples with great care from the kettle and put them in the same manner into the jars, continuing to boil the syrup for ten minutes after the fruit has been taken out. Fill the jars to overflowing with the syrup, cover, and set them upside down until cold. Instead of green ginger, one half ounce of tincture of ginger may be used. Help in Peeling Onions. The merest brieflet from a Chicago coworker takes another pebble (and not a tiny bit!) out of the path. "Before beginning to peel onions, grease your finger tips liberally with butter or lard or dripping. Then grasp the knife and go on with the dreaded job! Not a trace of odor from the onion or garlic will cling to your hands, provided, of course, that you avoid handling the onion with any part of them except the fingers. Banana Soup. Mash six ripe bananas, then rub them through a sieve; add twice as much cold milk, sweeten to taste, add a pinch of salt and the grated rind of one lemon; bring to boiling point, then add one heaping teaspoonful of arrowroot or cornstarch mixed smooth with a little cold milk; stir till boiling, then allow to cook for eight minutes, stirring constantly; let cool, then add two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice and place on ice. Serve in bouillon cups. Canned Pineapple Fritters Drain the slices of pineapple from the sirup in the can; sprinkle with kirsch and let stand an hour, then dry on a cloth. Dip the slices, one at a time, in fritter batter and fry in deep at to a delicate amber tint. Drain on soft paper. Serve at once with a hot sauce made of the sirup from the can. Baked Potatoes. Thoroughly wash 12 good sized potatoes, make a few small slits in them, but do not peel. Place in a paper bag with one tablespoon of water; cook from 40 to 50 minutes, according to size. Vinegar for Lamp Burners. Boll your lamp burners in weakened vinegar to clean them and the light will be much clearer.

Many words of praise come from the pastor and congregation. Some of the faithful attendants of the mid-week prayer service got together in the absence of the pastor and arranged a neat surprise to the Rev. Thomas W. Wallace, editor of the Western Star of Zion last Friday evening.

Simmons of Silex, Ark, writes: "I tried one bottle of Ford's Hair Pomade and found it to be the best preparation I have ever used. It stopped my hair from falling out and breaking off and my hair is now as soft as it can be and is longer than it has been for a long time. My friends all want it.

PROPER USE OF CASSEROLE Should Always First Be Tempered— Sudden Changes of Temperature to Be Avoided. Before using a casserole for the first time, it is well to temper it; this is best done by covering it with cold water, then letting the water come to the boiling point, remove from the fire, and let the casserole remain in the water until it is cold. Under no circumstances let the casserole be put on the stove without water or fat in it, says the Indianapolis News. If this is done the dish will crack. Avoid sudden changes of temperature with the casserole; that is, do not take it from the hot stove or oven and place it in cold water or in a wet sink; this will prove disastrous to the dish. Casserole cooking requires only moderate heat; if something is being cooked in the casserole at the same time that intense heat is required for something else, take the precaution of setting the casserole in a pan of water. If the cover of the casserole does not set very closely, thus allowing steam to escape too freely, it is well to spread a strip of cloth wet with a flour and water paste and press it over the joining of cover and casserole before setting the dish in the oven. When ready to serve, the strip is readily pulled off. In cooking anything in a casserole, it is well to allow twice the time for cooking that would be required were the stew or vegetables or fruit cooked in the ordinary way. TAKE UP ENGLISH DELICACY Orange Marmalade Has Become Popular Dish in America—How It Should Be Served. America has become addicted to the orange-marmalade habit. That which is bought, much of it shipped from over seas, is never quite so good as that which can be made at home. For every dozen thin-skinned oranges allow three lemons, all the fruit being washed and sliced as thin as paper. Then cover it with water in the proportion of one and a half quarts of water to every quart of fruit, and allow it to stand over night. Next morning the mixture is cooked slowly for two hours, sometimes a little more. Sugar equal in amount to the cooked fruit is added and the cooking is resumed until the mixture jellies from a spoon, which will be in from a half to a full hour. There should be no guesswork in adding the sugar. Measure the cooked fruit carefully to get at the amount of sugar to be used. Chicken Baked with Salt Pork. Chicken Baked with Salt Pork. Clean the required number of young chickens. Cut them down through the backbone, open, and flatten breast with a cleaver. In a large covered roasting pan lay several slices of salt pork. Place the chickens on these, skin side up. Dredge with flour and lay several slices of very thin salt pork on top. Add two cups of boiling water and bake slowly two hours, basting frequently and dredging very lightly with flour after each basting. More broth may be added if necessary. There should be at least eight bastings. Place buttered toast on a platter, arrange chicken on it, garnish with parsley. Thicken gravy with flour, add one teaspoonful of butter and one cupful of rich cream, salt and pepper to taste, and pour over chicken. Curry of Beef. Cut up the meat in small pieces, add two very finely chopped peeled onions, one teaspoon of curry powder, one peeled and chopped apple, one-half teaspoon of sugar, a little lemon juice. Add one teaspoon of flour, one-half of a tumblerful of boiling milk and a banana and tomato if liked. Mix together. Place in the paper bag and then on broiler at once. Allow 45 minutes in a hot oven. Rice be boiled and served separately if desired. Plum Salad. For a plum salad pare and pit small plums and fill the cavity in each with chopped nuts, says the New Haven Journal-Courier. Arrange on serving dish in circles of sliced bananas and top each plum and each of the banana slices with a bit of whipped egg dressing. Serve immediately with a garnish of crisp cress. Maplewood Ple. Pare and grate some sweet, mellow apples, about a dozen; to a pint of the grated pulp put a pint of milk, two eggs, two tablespoonfuls of melted butter, the grated peel of a lemon and half a wineglass of brandy; sweeten to your taste; to be baked in a deep plate, with only a lower crust. Chicken Fritters Cut pieces as large as possible from a cold, cooked chicken or turkey, season to taste, dip in fritter batter and fry a golden brown; serve with sauce tartare. The chicken may be dipped in eggs and crumbs instead of batter. Ginger Snaps. The secret of good ginger snaps is to use boiling water when mixing, then cover the dough and let it stand for several hours before baking.-Home Department, National Magazine. Cottage Cheese Salad. Add rich cream to the desired quantity of cottage cheese; place a spoonful on a lettuce leaf, and sprinkle over the top some finely cut onions. FROM THE PRODUCER TO THE CONSUMER THE FIELD A. S.

Ambassador Curtis Guild at St. Peters- burg Sends to State Department Exhaustive Report on Plan Adopted In That Country. ela and Turkestan has the farmers’ co- operative credit system reared a finan- olal fabric to assist the peasant farm- er of the Russian czar’s domain. The state department has just received from Ambassador Curtis Guild at St. Petersburg an exhaustive report on the farmers’ co-operative credit sys- tem in Russia. ‘This is the first of a series of re- ports requested by President Taft from nearly every one of the diplo- matic officers in Europe on this move- ment which he is striving to trans- plant to this country for the benefit of the American farmer. At the present time the Russian gov- ernment has nearly forty millions of dollars of government money invested tn the farmers’ co-operative credit sys: tem. How established a part of the Russian peasant’s Ife this financial machine 1s becoming is clearly shown in the practice of the peasants to de- posit their savings with the credit so- cleties on the understanding that the deposits will be paid out after their death for their funeral expenses or that they will be returned to them at the time of the coming of age of a son or the marriage of a datighter. ‘The co-operative movement among Russian peasants has now developed two distinct aims: First, to educate the peasants, a large proportion of whom are quite illiterate, along the lines of modern farming; and, second- ly, to encourage them to save their earnings and acquire the habit of pro: viding against the rainy days. The direct aim of the Russian government in organizing this system was to re- Neve the peasant from the necessity of paying exorbitant and ruinous rates of interest, {mposed upon them by their money lenders. ‘The movement affords further edu: cation for the peasant since the Rus sian government has very wisely lett the management of the societies large- ly In the hands of the farmers them selves, conducted through the general meetings of the societies, in which ey- ery member of the society 1s given one vote. The peasant is thus géven considerable experience in financial affairs and management. The mem bers elect a board of directors and a council. These bodies take care of the executive work. They report to the general meetings of the societies, at which all the members are present ‘The government exercises supervision over the socleties through the minis: try of finance. Although Instituted as late as 1895, the movement has spread In Russia to include ten thousand farmers’ socte: ties, with an average membership in each society of nearly five hundred. ‘The network of societies covers prac- tleally the entire immense area of the Russian empire. Widespread interest 4s taken in the movement both by the Russian government and by the peas: ants, and the government is at the presnt time considering a further elab- oration of the scheme. In studying the Russian co-operative credit system from the viewpoint of the American farmer, Ambassador Guild finds that naturally the great difference obtaining between condl- tions in the United States and in Rus. sia, in regard to the amount of land farmed by individuals, the system of land tenure, the wealth of the farm: ing class, and in the general facility for borrowing money, makes it impos: sible for this country to secure much benefit from a study of the Russtan system beyond {ts general principles. For example, the average loan re- quired by the farmer in Russia does not exceed $50 and is generally em- ployed to purchase some article neces- sary at the moment, such as an agrt- cultural {mplement or a horse, the loan being repaid by the Russian far- mer immediately after the harvest. Of course, the American farmer, who works a much larger acreage, would usually need more money and longer time. He would require his loan, not so much for the moment's exigency, as for the gradual development of his property. In brief, Ambassador Guild reports the Russian system to be an institu: tion of cooperative loan societies among the farmers, conducted under governmental patronage and supervi- sion, by which the farmer, at no cost to himself, is given the benefit of “loans from his society on long time and easy terms, and, at the same time, is permitted to share in his soclety’s profits. Forty years ago little Willie Wilson was late for school at Blantyde, in Scotland, and the schoolmaster sound: ly thrashed him for {t. That day Willie took an oath that when he got to parliament he would pass a Jaw making such behavior on the part of teachers a penal offense. He hever went to parliament, but in the house of representatives he took steps to make good his oath. ‘As a representative from the Fit. teenth Pennsylvania district, he dropped in the speaker's basket a bill making corporal punishment in the District of Columbia a serious offense. SENATORS GET CANNON, TRe senate demanded cannon—and got them. There were cannon to the right of them, cannon to the left of them, cannon ahead of them, but the only “‘volleying and thundering” that was done was the thundering of in dividual senators for more cannon. All of the troubles of the waning session were forgotten in the getting of the guns. Senator O'Gorman caused the trow ble when he called up-a bill granting condemned cannon to half a hundred towns throughout the country, to be placed in public squares, the grounds of public buildings and about state armories. No sooner had the bill been read than there arose a chorus of “Mr, President!” from the floor. Sen ator Jones of Washington got cannon for half a dozen towns in his state Senator Pomerene of Ohio was grant ed one gun. Senator Catron of New Mexico got two. Finally John Sharp Williams arose and drawled: “I'd like a cannon for some place in Mississippi to be designated later.” “There won't be enough cannon to go round,” remarked Senator Martine. “We want to shoot some down in Kentucky,” declared Senator Bradley. “Two cannon, suitably trimmed, for Lancaster, Ky.,” read the clerk. “Didn't say I wanted them trim. med?” said Bradley, but he accepted the “outfit of cannon balls” when the term was explained, ‘The bill finally disposed of some 109 cannon. BIG BARGAIN SALE. ‘The biggest bargain sale of machin: ery in history is promised upon the completion of the Panama canal. To dispose of machinery costing more than $15,000,000 is the problem con: fronting government authorities when the canal is opened. Although understood in a general way, Colonel Goethals, superintendent of the canal work, reports actual fig ures of machinery bought since the United States began digging the “big ditch.” Here are a few of the prin cipal items: Steam shovels, 102; cars 4,181; locomotives, 189; rock drills 725; cranes, 79; dredges, 14; barges 44 Many of the locomotives and cars will be useful in operating the canal and the Panama railroad, but most of the dredges, steam shovels and moun: tains of other steel implements will be put on the block for sale. Secretary of the Interior Fisher has suggested the plan of transferring much of the discarded machinery to Alaska for use in constructing a gov- ernment railroad to the interior of that territory. If congress does not authorize the federal railway in Alas ka, however, most of the Panama ma. chinery will be gold for the best price it will bring. WANTED ARTIFICIAL LEGS. Charles Mitchell, a Polish miner who lost his legs in a West Virginia mine several months ago, came here the other day to get a pair of artificial legs. He was told by a friend in West Virginia that Congressmen had wood en legs, garden seeds, bulletins and other things to glye away. Upon be- ing advised that artificial limbs are not to be had at the Capitol for the asking, Mitchell became downcast. He was sent to a public lodging house by police officers. When told of the West Virginia crip- ple Sam Pollard, the legless pencil vendor on Pensylvania avenue, sald: “There is but one way to get IT in Washington, and that 1s work for It. Fifteen years ago I was run over by a steam boat and had both legs cut off, but I am still living. No congress- man ever offered me a pair of wooden legs.” TURKEYS FOR ARMY WORMS. | From a farmer at Groveland, Ga., came a tip to congress of a way to rid ‘the south of the army worm. "M. M. Kicklighter wrote a letter, in ‘red ink throughout, to the “House or Senate,” telling of his discovery. “| saw your advertisement in the At lanta paper for ald to check the army worms,” it began. “I had ten acres of corn and the army worms had Just started in. I drove my turkeys in my field and they ate the army worms up in two days, and if It had not been for my turkeys I would have lost 600 ‘ushels of corn by those worms. “go please send mea check for said lainecat for that 1s the only way to destroy’ the army worms.” Congress recently appropriated $25, 000 to eliminate the worm. MUST LAY LARGER EGGS. Poultry experts in the department of agriculture have undertaken to teach the farmers of the country how to save about $50,000,000 on eggs a year. : “It 18 a conservative estimate,” sald M. EB. Pennington of the poultry di- vision of the department, “that more than $45,000,000 are lost annually by the handling of eggs for the market.” ‘Among other things the department experts will urge the farmers to en courage their hens to lay larger eggs, and less sterile eggs for market pur poses. By the co-operation of the farmer and the hen, Mr. Pennington argues the cost of living can be lowered tc the average man. If the $45,000,000 or $50,000,000 now lost annually can be saved every man, woman and child in the United States will be at least 50 cents better off. DEPARTMENT STATISTICS THAT ARE NOT DRY AS DUST. The Latest Contribution Comes In a Communication From France, and Is an Exhaustive Analysis of the Human Anatomy.

It was printed in an editorial in the Bulletin des Halles, the Parisian retail market register. It follows: “Contents of the human body: “Compilers of statistics know no bounds. One of our most brilliant physicist, whose speculations in the region of human chemistry have led him to make most exhaustive re- searches, has analyzzed the human an- atomy Into its convertible components. He reports as follows: “A normal man of 140 pounds con- tains in reducible nutritive principles the equivalent of 12,000 hen’s eggs. “The gas of the human organism 1s sufficient to inflate a balloon of 10,000 cuble feet. “A human body contains sufiicient {ron to make four nails of five cent: gramms weight, “A man of this weight contains enough fat to make 75 candles and leave over enough grease to make scraps of Marsellles soap. “There is a sufficient quantity of phos- phorus to make 8,045 boxes of parlor matches, “The hydrogen portion of the hu- man gas content would fill a balloon that would lift the weight of the con- tributor. “In addition to the foregoing the human body contains also six tea. spoonfuls of salt, a basin of sugar and 32 quarts of water.” With characteristic French cynl- clsm the analyst concludes: “What's the use? When all's said and done, the human organism with all these valuable contents, could not be pawned at the Monte de Plete for three sous.” HUGE MONEY VAULT PLANNED Structure to Be Five Stories Sunk in Earth Beneath Assay Office In New York. A steel ribbed, indestructible five story vault, sunk in the earth be neath the United States assay office in New York and capable of holding $2,000,000,000 in gold 1s planned by Secretary MacVeagh of the treasury department. It will be the largest money vault in the world. Looking into the future, Secretary MacVeagh believes the vault is a ne- cessity for the convenience and safety of the nation’s wealth. Gold is pur- chased by the United States govern- ment at the rate of $10,000,000 a year. This treasure, against which gold certificates are Issued, 1s distributed the country over in the vaults of the treasury, subtreasuries, mints and as- say offices. Within a few years It Js estimated the entire storage capacity of these buildings will have been con- sumed. ‘Se liltacu Wenlnian. ‘The War Department makes public the names of 10 institutions having all their faculty officers of the United States Army, the students of which have shown the greatest application and proficiency tn military training and knowledge. They are as follows: Agricultural and Mechanical College, Texas; Culver Military Academy, In- diana; New Mexico Military Institute, New Mexico; Norwich University, Ver- mont; Pennsylvania Military College, Pennsylvania; St. John’s Military Academy, Wisconsin; St. John’s School, New York; Sattuck School, Minnesota; Virginia Military Institute, Virginia. Millions Untaxed. That the case of Gifford Pinchot, who a few days ago announced that his valuable residence in Washington was under-assessed to the extent of $600 in annual taxes, is not an fsolated one is declared positively by Repre- sentative Henry George, Jr., Demo- erat, from New York, chairman of the special sub-committee of the house committee on the District of Colum- bla, which 1s investigating the “tax scandals” of the national capital. Mr, George expects to add $150,000, 000 to the assessed value of the taxed property in Washington. Blak. inp Waaklnctee., Andrew Gonzales, a Cuban, convict- ed of murdering his wife whose throat he cut, is under sentence to die Sept. 18, He has requested the district au- thorities to shorten the time by mov- ing the day of execution up. He said that he would rather be dead than live through the present hot spell in the Washington jail. The unusual re- quest will not be granted. CAPITOL ALWAYS INTERESTS Men Who Have Spent Their Lives Within Its Walls Find Sur- prises Daily. The one building of never-tiring in- terest in this country is the capitol at Washington, One could make a sys- tematic study of the capitol for months, and then overlook something. Men who have spent their lives with- in its walls find new surprises every day. There was former Senator Hans- brough of North Dakota, who during his busy career in the upper house failed to notice the beautiful land- scapes painted in an obscure corner on the capitol walls. For years and Years artists have been at work put- ting upon the walls of the nation’s great art galleries historical and in- spirational scenes that would glorify the canvasses of a French salon, While wandering about the corr! dors Senator Hansbrough became rem- iniscent and remarked that only one man remains in the senate who was there when’ he entered it in 1891, That is Senator Cullom, who at eighty-two years of age remains the last living Unk with the public life of the days of Lincoln. “But though senators may come and go,” remarked the genial North Dakotan, “Richards 1s still here.” For more than fifty years Mr. Charles N. Richards of Massachusetts has been keeper of stationery in the United States senate. Administra- tions have changed hands, but the Keeper of stationery has held his job. He came to the capital with a war record, having been through the bat- tle of Antietam, where, as he humor- ously remarks, his nose was put “out of joint.” Because of his wounds he has had the use of only one nasal funnel, so that If necessary he could wear a ring in his nose and be in fashion with the Hindoo beauties. He keeps perhaps one of the most com- pletely furnished stationery stores in the country, RESIDES IN HOUSE BUILDING Congressman Adamson 1s Only Man | in Congress Who Sleeps peeve Judge William Charles Adamson, congressman from the Fourth district ot Georgia, 1s the only man in con- gress who has his Washington rest- dence in the house office building. The solons in providing for the house building made a point of exclud- ing beds or lounges. Sofas and oth- er couches are permitted in the sen- ate office building, but not on the house side. Judge Adamson, now chairman of the Interstate and foreign commerce committee, was not satisfied with this arrangement, He has been used to taking a nap every day in his law of- fice at Carrollton, and declares that coming congress would not deprive him of his stestas, He made a still hunt through the house office building for a room in a retired nook where he could take his nap. He found it, and in the course of a few days secured a broad, thick plank, cut from a Georgia turpentine tree, which he supported on two soap boxes and covered with an army blanket, and made a snug couch, with a natural spring in the middle. That became the “Washington residence” of Adamson. MINERAL WATER IS. POPULAR 67,527,822 Gallons Sold in United States During Year of 1911, In 1911, 67,527,822 gallons of min. eral waters were sold in the United States, valued at $7,875,873. Of this large amount 63,923,119 gallons, val- ued at $6,837,888, were of domestic production, and 3,604,703 gallons, val- ued at $1,037,485, were imported. ‘The average price of the domestic water at the springs was 10.7 cents a gal- lon and that of the imported water was 20.8 ceuts a gallon, to which must be added for the imported water freight, commissions and import duty. The domestic production in 1911, compared with that in 1910, showed an increased of 1,892,994 gallons and $480,298 in value, The product in 1911 was derived from 732 springs. New York state led in the quantity of water sold, with 10,245,261 gallons. Wisconsin was second, with an output of 5,716,162 gallons. Experiment With Tobacco Mola. An interesting experiment has been made by a German scientist in con nection with the discovery of the value of electrifying tobacco as a means of insuring its flavor and keep ing qualities. The flavor of tobaccc is sald to be largely due to the pe cullar fungus or “bacterial flora’ with which each variety 1s associated and electricity kills the fungus, but ‘preserves the flavor. This German scientist has taken the peculiar mold or fungus, of the best Havana tobacco and transferred {t to the more coarse ly flavored Bavarian tobacco, and 1 fs claimed that good judges could not distinguish the Havana from the Bavarian. Ingalls to Scrap Heap. ‘The United States army transport Ingalls, formerly the Yucatan, has been ordered out of commission and will be sent to the scrap heap. ‘The Ingalls, not yet re-christened at the time, conveyed the first United States volunteer cavalry (the Rough Riders) from Tampa, Fla., to Santia go, where they were intended to form the first line of attack in the Spanish American war.

Or Can Domestic, Told by Wife to Stick to Her Post, Hold the Fort?—Matter of Some Moment to Husbands. Our sympathy goes out to T. R. Dunkerly of Tacoma. This free-born American citizen finds it impossible, even with the help of the courts, to rid himself of his cook, though, according to his allegations, her bread is "like bricks and her biscuits like stones." When he attempted to put the cook out of the house she "threatened him," and as he was a small person it became necessary for him to appeal to the law. When the constable arrived with the warrant the cook admitted that she had refused to leave, but said that she had been hired by Mrs. Dunkerley, who was away from home, but had ordered her not to leave under any circumstances. The case is one of plainly conflicting jurisdiction. There seems to be a twilight zone within which positive action, at least by the husband, is impossible. As a rule, the wife employs the servants. But whether she is in the legal sense the employer is doubtful. As a rule, the one who pays the wages is the employer. If this rule holds in domestic affairs, and if Mr. Dunkerly was in truth the paymaster, it would seem as though it were for him to say whether the cook should go or stay. Yet the case is not free from complexity. To insist on the rule in its strictness would be to make the wife the mere agent of the husband, which of course, is not, in these days, to be thought of. There are those who will argue that when a man gives his wife money with which to run the house the money is hers. On that theory she would be the employer. But it is not necessary to take this extreme view. We may hold that all the money earned or possessed by either husband or wife belongs to both, and that the money which was paid to this cook was, when it was paid, the property of Mrs. Dunkerley. At least it was as much the wife's as it was the husband's. As it was part of her duty, as representative of the family, to hire the cook, and as she may be held to have paid her wages and to have been the employer, one may fairly conclude that Dunkerley was a mere interloper in his own home. But the case is a sad one, and there are, of course, many who will take the other view than that here elaborated. It is hard to have to eat bread like bricks and biscuits like stones. There ought to be some redress besides resort to the tavern, especially when one feels that one is paying for bread and biscuit that are not like bricks and stones. But the appeal seems to be to the lady of the house, and we hope that it will not be in vain—Indianapolis News. Rats and the Plague. After hundreds of negative examinations of rats made during the last few weeks one rat carrying bubonic plague bacillis was found in New Orleans, on July 27, and one in Philadelphia on July 29. New cases of plague have been reported in both Porto Rico and Cuba. At Porto Rico special examination will be given to freight to be shipped to the United States. Large forces of rat polisoners and rat catchers are at work and five hundred rats are being examined daily. The United States treasury department has ordered that all vessels from ports in South America, the West Indies, Africa, Russia, Russia, China, India and the Pacific islands, while lying in United States ports, shall have all lines or hawkers leading to wharves or shore protected by rat guards, and that all gang planks shall be raised at night unless men be placed nearby to destroy escaping rats. Life of London John L. Griffiths, formerly of Indianapolis, now consul general at London, writes that greater London has a population of 7,250,000. The county of London comprises only a portion of the metropolitan area. The county council's abstract shows the following interesting items: Population, 4,522,961; debt, $558,583,980; ratable value, $217,023,144; weddings a year, 40,201; births, 112,795; deaths, 61,909; deaths by accidents, 1,846; fires, 3,208; paupers, 140,560; police, 17,293; soldiers, 10,058; postal employees, 49,969; firemen, 1,365; motor cars, 8,318; cattle, 3,371; sheep, 2,941; plugs, 1,948; orchards (acres), 168; corn crops, 242; postoffices, 1,061; letters delivered, 805,900,000; post cards, 199,800,000; telegrams, 25,662,000. The imports into London constitute 33.6 per cent of the total imports into the United Kingdom, and more than half the income tax on salaries is paid by London. They Knew All About It. "You must have lived in a little Scotch town," remarked a busy London woman, "to appreciate the pinpoints of interest to which a village may be reduced and the absolute publicity of your every movement in such a place. "Once while I was visiting at home I happened to be lying down when callers came, so my mother did not disturb me. At tea-time other callers arrived, and by way of making conversation one of them said to me very sweetly: "We hear you've been lying down."—Harper's Bazar. Juggernaut Not Allowed to Claim His Human Victims. Journey of the God to Country House Shorn of Its Ancient Horrors, Through Action of the British Government. Persons whose tender childish years were nurtured upon tales of the unforgettable car of Juggernaut, beneath the wheels of which plous Hindus flung themselves to be mangled into immortality, will hardly read without a pang of regret the following report from the ancient city of Purl, three hundred miles south of Calcutta, where Juggernaut has had his shrine since 1198 or earlier. "At one place by the walls," says the Christian Herald, "is a great figure of Juggernaut, carved in relief, and standing eighteen feet high. An almost horrible object it is, glossy black except for its ape-like face, which is brilliant red. Devout pilgrims place fruit or rice before it, press their foreheads to its feet, and pass on, confident that they have appeased this god on their long journey to the Hindu's paradise. "Outside the walls of the temple lie remnants of this year's great car wheels, eight feet in diameter and a foot thick, mounted on axles twenty-two feet long and fourteen inches in diameter. One pictures the car as carved from costly wood, black with age, ornamented with gold and set with precious stones. "In fact, a new car is built every year, in which the god journeys the two miles for a fortnight's rest at his garden or country house. Vast numbers of pilgrims grasp the ropes and the car moves slowly forward to the cheers of thousands of spectators. But the heavy wheels cut deep into the sand and it slows down and stops. Interest lags, the priest now accepting a mere touching of the ropes as sufficient service, and hired coolies complete the journey, two weeks being sometimes necessary to traverse the two miles, and an even greater time to return. The British government now prevents the sacrifice of life under the car, which probably accounts for the decline of the festival." Typewriter Hindustani. Being in a great hurry—she was constitutionally in a great hurry—she rattled and banged the typewriter with energy worthy of a grand cause. Then she threw back the carriage and read—or tried to: "Sa Nezi Ayhnes Gilmore ups it: Henw ash ash alinged oeth ghtsri ualeq thiw enm tath seh si wno medandnig, hatw sha ownam to veig eth rowd ni turenr?" It looked so much like high caste Hindustani that she was tempted to let it go at that and learn the whole language, but time pressed, so she tried again and got this: "As Inez Haynes Gilmore puts it: When she has gained those rights equal with men that she is now demanding, what has woman to give the world in return?" Find Patients for Doctors A curious occupation has sprung up in Paris. Several doctors have received a circular from a newly formed agency, which offers to find patients for them. The fees are rather high. They vary from $20 to $100. On receipt of the fee the doctor is assured a list of twenty consumptives, twenty epileptics, twenty people suffering from cancer, etc. He is then at liberty to call and offer his services. The agency's circular declares that the list of patients are compiled from absolutely certain sources and that the money will be returned if there are more than three mistakes in each list. This is a rather grim proviso. Sparrows Despoiled Pigeon. Its feet held fast in soft tar which had been melted by the sun on the roof of the supply house of the board of education, West Monroe street, a pigeon was being shorn of its, feathers by a flock of sparrows when it was sighted by policemen who were standing in front of the patrol wagon barn at the Desplaines street station. The sparrows had plucked feather after feather from the pigeon before the policemen realized what was taking place. Policemen Sullivan, Murphy and Crotty figally liberated the pigeon. —Chicago Dally News. Grouse In London Grouse are not allowed to be on sale in London before August 12, the opening of the shooting season, yet on that very day, even before the birds can be shot on the wild moors, they are on sale. And when these birds are sold it is found that they are two years old. When the magic words "cold storage" are uttered the mystery is resolved. They have been for many months hanging in long, neat rows in cold storage awaiting the "new birth." The slow-going Briton has caught on to some American methods. Uncle Bonbon. An elderly beau had been delivering himself of certain forcible home truths when lecturing his nephew. "Wonderful chap, your uncle," observed a friend when the old gentleman had disappeared.

CORNWALLIS-WEST'S UNUSUAL INSPIRATION Is the spirit of William Shakspeare guiding the hand and brain of Mrs. Cornwallis-West—London society favorite and creator and manager of the wonderful "Shak speare's England" festival held at Earle's court? MARY HARRIS This is generally believed to be true by Londoners, who declare that no woman like Mrs. West, who has made society a vocation instead of the amusement business, could possibly show the genius in management and the business ability to put on what is no doubt one of the biggest single amusement projects ever witnessed in England. That the Bard of Avon has influenced this woman successfully to carry out the festival that does honor to his memory is believed by all but the most skeptical who have seen the exhibition If Shakspeare's spirit did not influence Mrs. West, what accounts for her sudden inspiration to stage the picturesque scenes of Elizabethan England at the cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Giving up her social duties and working nine hours each day and many extra nights organizing the big show on speculation. Superintending the construction of the buildings of that period. Poring over works of history and devoting days upon days to the designing of certain costumes in order to have the smallest detail historically correct. Leaving Mayfair and the brilliant court of St. James after a life of idle luxury and plunging into hard labor. And, above all, showing a genius in the work which is said by experts to be worthy of the great poet himself. Mrs. West displayed such splendid genius that many of her friends and acquaintances believe that even with the knowledge of English history she has she could not have revived those days of tilts and jousts with such accuracy as she has shown. The story is most mysterious because Mrs. West will neither deny nor confirm it. This much, however, is known: She spent months wandering over every inch of the ground with its ivy-grown cottages and gay gardens that was beloved by the great English poet; she spent hours visiting the homes in which he once lived and then took her books and read, and meditated and talked Shakspeare with everybody who loves the great English dramatist and his works. It is said that when her work was completed and she went back to London prior to the pageant, Marle Corelli said to her: "It will be a wonderful success. It must be, for Shakspeare will be with you at the pageant and will direct the show. If you follow his instruction you will be well rewarded, for he will not leave you after the pageant is over. He is with many great writers, inspiring them to do their best, and he will remain with you. If it were not for his great genius and that of others who have gone to the great unknown there would be few writers in the world today. It is Shakspeare and the lesser lights who have inspired me and others to do their best." Since everybody is congratulating Mrs. West on her splendid success, she cannot forget the words that Marie Corelli spoke to her. She is beginning to wonder if there is some half truth in these words, and that she may yet be aided to do great works with her pen. FRANZ JOSEF ASKS POPE TO STOP TURKISH WAR In a personal letter, penned with his own hand, the aged Emperor Franz Josef has made an appeal to Pope Plus to urge intervention between Italy and Turkey and bring about the close of a war which his imperial majesty describes as a grave danger to the progress of civilization.

"Instead of weakening Mohametanism, as some suppose," the emperor writes, "the war is uniting Islam against Christians the world over. Morally it has been a great mistake." The letter was conveyed to Rome by a special court messenger, who received a handsome gift from his holiness. No intimation was made to the nunculature here, owing to the peculiar delicacy of the situation and the desire of the emperor to keep the nature of the correspondence secret. The Nuncio was informed of the emperor's act by a friend in the papal secretariat of state. He feels deeply incensed, and has since kept away from the imperial palace, where he was previously a constant visitor. Trouble Galore Italian—I see another naval engagement is reported." Wife—"More fighting?" Italian—I suppose so. The captain is engaged to the rear admiral's daughter." SENORA PEZET, WIFE OF PERUVIAN MINISTER The Minister from Peru and his charming wife and son have received m Peru and his son have received a cordial welcome on their second coming to Washington. Mr. Pezet was first secret tary of the Peru- vian legation for five years and left Washington in 1900 to become minister to the re- public of Central America. He did not sever his ties of friendship but through all these Mary years has kept up a brisk correspondence with many Washingtonians. When his only son, called George Washington Pezet, because he was born on February 22, and because his parents are fervent admirers of the great neighbor to the north and its founder, was of college age he was placed at Harvard, where two years ago he graduated with high honors, Young Mr. Pezet has since resided in Boston intending to take up literature as a profession. "I return to Washington," remarked Senora Pezet. "as one comes back to a dearly loved spot filled with pleasant memories. I find the city changed but not sufficiently so to make me feel strange except in a few locations. In a way I feel as though I left only a few months ago and I take up the thread of affairs with zeal and energy engendered by a complete rest. My home city is Lima, one of the oldest cities of the New World and one of the most fascinating. Less than fifty years after Columbus discovered this vast empire for Spain, the first stone of the Cathedral of Lima was laid by Pizarro, in January, 1535." Senor and Senora Pezet two years ago celebrated the silver anniversary of their wedding, but to see the senora suggests that she has discovered Ponce de Leon's spring of eternal youth. Being a perfect blonde, with deep blue eyes and fair skin, an unusual type for a Spanish-American, though often seen in Spain, she looks as though she were entering her twenties. Senora Pezet is the daughter of the late Jose Maria Corbacho of Lima, a prominent citizen and one who held many offices of trust. She bears the pretty name of Coraline, shortened into Cora. She was educated at home by governesses after the way of the Latins, who never send their children away from home until they are well grown and her marriage to the minister, who was the son of a neighbor, occurred before she reached the dignity of attending a boarding school. She spent a few months, however, with the madams of the Sacred Heart and since coming to this country, she frequently visits establishments of that order near Philadelphia and New York. Senor and Senora Pezet have fond hopes of their son, George Washington Pezet, who has already developed a remarkable talent for the drama. He writes entirely in English. He is a tall, slender youth bearing a marked resemblance to his mother. SECRETARY NAGEL SAYS $25 A WEEK IS ENOUGH Is $25 a week enough to cloth, feed and house three adults? Secretary of Commerce and Labor Nagel was called upon the other day to decide this question. He decided it in the affirmative. In Secretary Nagel's opinion $25 a week is sufficient to keep a family of five or six. PETER M. BURGESS Mary Fleming, 56 years old, and her sister Cecilia, 58 years old, arrived in New York a few days ago from Dublin, Ireland. They had never before been to the United States. When examined by immigration inspectors at Ellis Island they said they had $115 between them, but that they were going to be cared for by their nephew, John Francis Byrne, a New York newspaper reporter. This did not satisfy Acting Commissioner Uhl, and he questioned Mr. Byrne. Mr. Byrne said the two malden aunts had been the same as parents to him when he was small and that he was anxious to care for them and that he had sent to Ireland for them. He said he received $25 a week as a reporter and thought that sufficient to support himself and his aunts. Commissioner Uhl reported to Secretary Nagel that while the aunts were very nice ladies and apparently healthy, he did not think Byrne could support them on $25 a week. Secretary Nagel ruled that Byrne could support them, and instructed Commissioner Uhl to admit the two aunts. As to School Holidays "In Rome, in the time of the Republic, 64 days in every year were devoted to public festivals recognized by law. The American republic has not reached such a number of holidays, but its schools surpassed it long ago." says the current report of the United States Bureau of Education. The document points out, however, that there is now a wholesome trend away from the custom of granting an overabundance of school holidays. PROPERLY MADE GRAPE JUICE Steaming Is Considered Better Than Stewing If Best Results Are to Be Obtained. There is something worth remembering about the making of grape juice, contributed by a student of domestic science: Crush and steam the grapes, instead of crushing and stewing them, as was the old method. To the crushed fruit add one quart of water to every 16 quarts of grapes, and place the kettle containing them over a second kettle containing hot water. It is claimed that the substitution of steaming for stewing does fuller justice to the grape. After they have been rendered thoroughly tender, pour the cooked fruit into the jelly bag and let it drip over night. By morning the sediment will have settled at the bottom and the clear top can be poured off. The juice is now ready for bottling. After it has been strained into bottles (glass fruit jars may be used to as good advantage) covers and rubbers are put on and the bottles are set on a rack in the boiler, or on the shelf of the steam cooker. If you use the boiler, or a kettle, add cold water until it comes up about two inches on the bottle or jar. Bring the water gradually to the boiling point, and let the boiling continue from 30 to 60 minutes, according to size of jar. Seal the bottles, and the juice is ready to store. HOUSEHOLD QUESTIONS HOUSEHOLD QUESTIONS Scorch marks of linen may be removed by rubbing with a fresh cut onion, the garment being soaked in cold water after. Keep some folded newspapers handy upon which to place soiled pots and pans, and save cleaning smutty rings from the tables. When preparing a turkey or chicken, try rubbing it inside with a piece of lemon. It will whiten the flesh and make it more tender. After cleaning the shelves and inside of pantry drawers, give a coat of varnish or enamel, and they will clean as easily as oilcloth. Avoid open shelves in kitchen or pantry. Have at least a curtain to keep out the dust. A window shade of the right size is liked by many. To prevent pictures from slipping and hanging uneven, hang them first face to the wall, and then twist around, making a cross in the wire. Croquettes or other foodstuffs to be fried in deep fat should stand for fifteen minutes in the warm kitchen be fore being cooked, to brown well. Ragout of Lamb. Cut the necessary amount of shoulder of lamb into square pieces of equal size. Take off the pink skin and saute or fry in a bit of butter—an ounce is enough for three pounds. Add some small onions and brown for 10 minutes. Dredge with flour, a tablespoon to a pound, and stir well for two minutes. Moisten with boiling water or white broth, a pint to a pound of meat, and season. Let cook for 45 minutes. Two minutes after it begins to boll thoroughly skim off the scum on the surface. Serve on a hot dish with green beans and an equal quantity of new carrots, cut in small pieces, steamed and well seasoned. Open Apple Pie. Line a rather deep pie plate with pastry and put a rim around the edge. Pare and cut tart apples into half inch sections, lengthwise and stand them close together all around the edge. Then fill the center with sliced apples, all it will hold, filling in the chinks well, as the apples shrink in baking. Add sugar, a few grains of salt, nutmeg or cinnamon and dot all over with bits of butter. Bake in a moderate oven until apples are done and serve hot or as soon as cool. Not to good after first day. Egg Cutlets Put two tablespoonfuls of butter into a sauce pan; add two tablespoonfuls of flour and blend over fire; add one cupful of milk, boil three minutes, stirring all the time; add two yolks of eggs, remove from fire, and add two tablespoonfuls of chopped, cooked ham, six chopped hard-boiled eggs, seasoning of salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Turn out onto a plate to cool. Shape into cutlets. Brush over with beaten egg, roll in bread crumbs, and fry in smoking hot fat. Serve hot. Boiling Cracked Eggs. An egg that is cracked can be boiled by inclosing it in a piece of soft paper. When the paper becomes wet it adheres to the egg, and prevents it from coming through the shell. This process should be successful in every case where the crack is of a moderate length. Washing White Stockings. When washing white slik stockings use tepid water and pure white soap. Rub gently with the hands. Rinse in cold water and add a little bluing to the last rinsing water. This keeps them from becoming yellow. Ginger Pudding One-half cupful molasses, one teaspoonful ginger, one-half lemon, one egg, one-half cupful milk, one teaspoonful soda, one teaspoonful cream tartar, one tablespoonful butter, one-half cupful chopped raisins. Water Sponge Cake. This is a small sponge cake: One egg, one-half cup of sugar, one-half teaspoon lemon juice, three tablespoons of cold water, three-quarters cup of flour sifted with one teaspoon baking powder.

Hats covered with dresden taffeta are decidedly chic. Bridesmaids now are favoring hats of this type to con- tinue the idea of the dresden coatee thrown over simple and usable frocks of white or plain colors. | Little dresden silk slippers for the ‘rest hour add a new touch to the negligee set, especially if bindings or trimmings of dresden silk be used on the gown. Dresden sashes, with an extra line of the ribbon quilling trailing in and out among the bunches of flowers, are accepted by womankind as an idea that makes the assurance of beauty doubly sure, It is undeniable that the dresden col- orings in designs that are varied and inexpensive are a fuctor In the general beauty of summer styles. Are you using them? Fascinating Lingerie. For evening wear throughout _ the winter underskirts will remain as they are this summer, and some o! the charming bargains so dear to the heart of womankind may be picked up at present, as, for instance, a pet- ticoat of the finest satin messaline in the palest blue, with a knee-deep frill of kilted transparent lawn over a pleated frill of silk, slashed at in- tervals and held together by narrow bands of pale bluo ribbon. Ta) een on ities ‘When pumps slip at the heels and are too loose, paste a piece of velvet in the back, with the nap side out. If the shoes still spread, take them to a shoemaker and have him put tn a casing for a draw string, or a piece of clastic which Is tightly fastened, _ Overshoes that slip at the heel and are too big may be made more com- fortable by glueing a thick plece of chamols up the back of the heel. Use a glue that stands water. Silk Apples on Hats. ‘The black hat is amazingly popular at the moment in London. White 1s the favorite trimming, but yellow makes a very close rival. A black hat that I admfred immensely had the rather low crown completely cov- ered with bunches of small silk ap- ples in varying shades of yellow, brown and pale green. A few apple leaves, very yellow ones, were mixed in between, and both fruit and leaves were kept as flat as possible. PHONE MAIN 61 23—Day or Night RESIDENCE PHONE YORK 1669.
