THE ANNUAL STATE MEETINGS

In all these IOurtecn conventions
there were but three votes against the
sub-treasury plan. Such unanimity
ought to convince the opposition that

Since the above was written the state
of Missouri has held its annual meeting
with the following result: All the Of
ficers of the state alliance, including
the FIVE delegates to the national con-
vention in November. are pronounced
advocates of the Ocala demands, includ-
ingthe sub-treasury and land loan plans.
But the platform is silent on these
points
The planks thus left out will be car
ried back to the lodges, or subordinate
bodies, for debate and settlement
These lodges can express their opinions
by resolution to the delegates to the
national convention of next November,
and consensus of alliance opinion in
that way can be arrived at. The resO-
lntions as adopted indorse the Sedalia
and Ocala demands, except the sub
treasury and land loan clauses, which
were recommended to be remanded to
the county unions for settlement

that he go out OF the country. He
has already been guilty OF several

DUNBAR, August 12.-This town
was a night or tive ago treated to O
most remarkable and beautiful spec
tacle. Shortly alter dusk the people
were surprised and puzzled to be-
hold what appeared TO be cloud of
light come sweeping up from the
woods lying back Of the town, but on
reaching its streets, it was seen that
the light was occasioned by an i'm
mense swarm of fre-fies. This
swarm, numbering millions, dispersed
itself through the village, illumin at
ing everything with 4 light more
golden than that of day and warmer
than the moons cold beams.
People recognized each other with
out difficulty and the print of a news
paper was to be read with ease.
Tie houses were filed with the dar-
ting flashing insects, which seemed

.seerious se,rious GAUGE. Lamps were exiting
uished by the swarms and carpets
ruined by them as they .ere crushed
by the foot, while delicate plants and
flower beds we're destroyed by the
weight at the clustering fie..
1t took several hours for the swarm
to pass through the town, but ii
slowly Disappeared in the direction
OF the river, lightning the fields as il
went, alarming the country people
as it approached and arousing the
cattle and poultry, which seemed tc

Youthful Depravity.

police Cannon Of Latrobe, Saturday
evening, arrested a boy named Char
ley Banner aged 13, charged with be.
ing one OF the parties implicated in
the murder OF Samuel 1essa at Eb
ensburg on Thursday evening.
The boy Was ct once taken to Jus.
tice Geiger's office where, in the
presence of officer Cannon, Justice
Geiger, Burgess Slater and Samuel
Hughes, ne confessed to q full knowl-
edge Of the murder, and said that it
J was his cousin, Elmer Bruner, who
did the killing
He said that he and his cousin,
and woman named Anna Jackson,
of Johnstown have been travelling
together, through Eastern Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey and New York for
for several months. Some weeks
ago they stole horso in New YORK
State, an1 at once left with the ani-
ms, going ss far % central New

whore they abandoned it, and going
inta : pasturs field they stole anoth-
er, and also buggy, and they at
srce FASTENED in it to Pennsylvania,
arrivining within seven miles Of Eb
ensburg on Wednesday evening.
Here they sold the animal and
stole another, and then hiding until
the next evening, they drove to the
vicinity of Ebeusburg On passing
the residence OF Mr. Reese, and not
seeing anybody about, Elmor propos-
ed that if Cbarlsy and Mics Jackson
would keep lookout he would rob
the house. To this thoy consented,
he at the same time saying that if
anybody interfered he would blow
the head off them. He ct once got
out Of the buggy and just as he en-
tered the front door, MIR. Reese, who
was in the lot in the rear Of the
house, stepped to the back door,
grabbed his shot gun and said: Get
out of here" This Bruuer refused
to do and told the old man if he
raised tho gun he would BLOW his
head off. Without waiting for
Reese to make move or reply, he
pulled a revolver from his pocket and
fired, the ball striking tho old man
in the mouth, killing him instantly.
They then went through the house,
but got nothing except some tobacco
and q razor After failing to get
any plunder they et once started on
their journey west. At Lstrobs,
where Charley Bruner, the boy un-
der arrest, once lived, he concluded
that he would stop off and see eOme
of his old associates over Sunday.

Rain After the Explosion.

MERTON, Tex, Aug. Saturday
and Monday part of the rain-mskins
apparatus only was set up and the
preliminary trial made simply to
test the efficiency of the special blast
ing power which is being manufac.
tured at the grounds from msterial
brought here. Several bombs were
exploded by means Of electrical
dynsmos. Although this powder is
very powerful spectators were by no
means confident that the the explo-
sion would have any practical effect
upon the meteorological conditions.
However, about ten hours after the
explosions clouds gathered and @
heavy rain fell, extending many miles.
Explosions may not have actually
produced the storm, as they were not
on a large enough scale, but they
were undoubtedly instrumental in
prscipitGting the moisture which the
clouds brought to that locality and
greatly increased the intensity of the
storm and the quantity Of the rain
fall, which was greatest in the imme-
date vicinity Of the place of opera
lion.

dreams Of social condition under
which all men shall have exactly the
same income-say $4,000 q year each;
and his plan of socialism or national
ism, is to organize the social body in
such a way as will produce this in
come and distribute it. 1t is singu-
lar enough that men who, perhaps,
cannot be called positively insane,
should seriously present such an idea
Tho whole income of the country,
equally divided, would give but a
paltry income for each individual,
and the total income under such a
system would rapidly diminish, since
there would no longer be any inosn-
tive to erterprising talents. Gov
eminent would not and could not
undertake and carry on successfully
every kind Of business in every de-
tail. Men undertake things Ia the
hope Of gain: but government, having
no rewards to offer TO one man more
than to another, would not get the
effort that is now directed with stud
led ingenuity and defatigabIe spirit
into every channel. The object of
every man would be to get his share
out OF the public fund with as little
labor as possible. Invention would
cease with the inducement that slim.

GENERAL NEES ITEMS.

YORK, Pc, August IA remark
able race with locomotive was made
by Mrs. DIR. Rause to day. She was
crossing the Northern Central Rail
road tracks seated in phaeton, and
driving a spirited horse. As the
horse reached the track the Hanover
express, dashing at mile q minute
rate, was sighted bearing down upon
them. The horse became frightened
and turned down the track ahead Of
the engine. It was race for life
and the plucky woman Won.
The phseton bobbed up and down
on the ties like band-box. Every
minute the engine drew nearer. kIrs.
Rause kept her seat with difficulty,
and the engineer shut his syes, ex'
pecting every minute that the loco,
motive would crash into the carriage.
He reversed the engine and trusted
to luck. When.the engine was within
three feet of the phaeton it was stop
ped.
The horse slowed up and it was
easily checked after a race OF a qsar.
ter Of mile. The passengers left
the train and went to the lady's as
sistance 1t was found that she had
escaped serious injury, having only
been bruised about the face and
body by humping against the sides
Of the phaeton. The horse and car.
riaue were removed from TIE track.
and Mrs. Rause drove home without
assistance.

State Convention TO revise the state
constitution ss follows,
Resokoed, That we are unalterabl7
opposed to Constitutional Conven-
ton to amend the present Constitu-
tion of the State; because the present
Constitution is only beginning to be
understood. 1t had so changed the
fundamental law OF the State, that it
is not yet known what its trainers
intended. The trainers Of the Con
stitution of 1928 took the old
Constitution of 1888 apart, and ike
ADskilled mechanics. who can pull
down, had bat limited ability to
build up--so that r-"ri0ns ei the
old were omitted by mistake from
the new, or unskilliully inserted,
giving tronble in its Interpretation;
and the language employed is So
doubtful anu obscure !.i.RI Do,n .nv u
learned ard nnloarnsd are confound-
FL eI and perplexed. Take for example
section 7 OF Article XVI, which de-
Glars that 'the stock and indebted
ness of corporations shall not be
increased, except in Pursuance nf
genersl law, without the consent of
the persons holding the larger amount
in value Of the stock, first obtained
at meeting to be held after sixty
days, notice, given in pursuance of
law" Whoever can interpret this
language will become an oracle.
What debts shall net be increased?
Ordinary or permanent! When
bank receives a dollar on deposit it
creates debt; whom a laborer tramps
a tie the company creatss q debt.
Who can tell what is meant by such
vague language' This is only a speci-
men of the many things contained in
the present Constitution framed by the
learned men who met in the conven-
ton 81 IofZ-J. Why should simi-
lar class OF mon and mind be again
permitted to tinker with the iunda-
mental law? The convention of 1928
cost the State over 100000 and
the mischiefit did cost twice as much
more. Why call them together
again to repeat the follyf Let the
people, without rgard to party, protect
themselves by defeating the call
and leave the learned gentlemen who
seek to compose the proposed con-
