While the little Huntington junket
last week was skillfully designed it
has left some bitterness. This was ey
idenced by a little episode in the meet
ing of the joint finance committee.
Judge Jackson made a little speech,
and closed with the suggestion that
Mrs Ruffner aud Mr.. Thompson were
more familiar with the needs of the
institution, and should be heard.
Major Bennett, Of Huntington, prompt
ly moved to adjourn, and no moro
speeches were made on the subject Of
the Home for Incurables. Major Ben
nett and Dr. Taylor, the Cabell county
delegates, feel that they were sighted
in the arrangements for the reception
at the Home last Thursday night.
They were not consulted in the matter
at all, and both were conspicuous by
their absence. 1t is alleged that there
was hidden purpose in the refusal to
arrange for a daylight trip, and it can
not be denied, that the dry" banquet
was rather disappointing feature.
1t is but fair to say, however, that
the members of the Legislature were
more than pleased after their inspec-
ton of the first building of the Home,
and that the presence Of SO many grac-
ious and charming young ladies of
Huntington, made the reception an oc-
casion of pleasure unallOyed.

treatment of affections of the breathing

application of the remedies used being
more direct, more specific and more read

With this Inhaler you are enabled to

unpleasant doses into the stomach, and

Anthony Smiths bill for the sup
preston of prize fighting is On it's
third reading in the Senate. The pat
ron of the measure does not relish the
levity which it creates while under
consideration. Yesterday Senator Get
zendanner offered an amendment to in
clude football, and Senator Osenton
spoke in favor of the amendment. He
said that statistics proved that more
serious accidents resulted from contests
on the gridiron, than from bouts in the
roped arena. Senator Smith replied
with some warmth that he did not pro
pose to have his bill laughed down.
If it were not for further ruffling his
temper, amendments would have been
offered to include base ball, croauet
and marbles in the provisions OF the
bill

The attempt to fasten the blame for
failure to have the bills and Journals
printed promptly, upon the printing
clerks of the House, was a mere sub
terfuge. 1t was dropped like hot coal
when few side lights were thrown On
the subject. The printing clerks re-
lieve the public printer of the time and
expense of reading proof" They are
furnished gratitously by the House to
facilitate work for which the public
printer is paid. AS matter of fact,
their salaries should come out OF the
revenues Of the public printer.

The mother tongue has some strong
| friends among the teachers in attend
! ance at the meeting of the National
Educational Association at Los An
geles, California II is gratifying to
notice this when alI languages but our
own has such active and enthusiastic
supporters among our educators
There has been a disposition in many
of the higher and secondary schools of
the country to neglect the study of the
English language sand its literature.
With the hope of bringing about a re-
form in this matter the national asso-
cations committee on college entrance
requirements urges that the study of
English be placed in a position at least
not inferior to that allotted other Ian
guages. 1t contends that this study
offers all, or nearly all, the oppor-
tunities for mental training afforded
by any language, and introduces the
pupil to the literature of his own
tongue, which must always be the true
source of his own thought, inspirations,
ideals, and literary enjoyment and
must also be the vehicle of COM
munication with his fellow men.
In order that the students in all our
schools may be able to acquire this
essential knowledge of the English
language and literature mora thor
oughly than is now possible, the COM
mittee recommends that the piepara-
tory courses in English in all second
airy schools should be the same: that
the college requirements in English
should be distributed through tha four
years; that at least four periods per
week should be given TO the work in
be devoted to its literature.
Such a reform is undoubtedly needed
and the sooner it is put into effect the
better. English is given moe prom
inenCe than few years ago, but it is
not given the prominence it deserves
in our schools and colleges. Too much
is taken for granted in the Students
knowledge of his language and It's
litcra turc. How many sU-called edu
Gated men and women, even college
gra1l ateS, fail to express themselves in
good English, either in writing or
speaking. and how limited ana narrow
4 knowledge most of Us possess Of the
great master minds Of our literature.
II is safe to say that not one communi-
cation in a score received in news
paper office is fit for publication rs K
is written. The most common rules OF
syntax, punctuation, and capitalization
are violated in every paragraph by
business men and even by professional
maE -wlo have given man. years 10
study. Our schools need either the
teaching of much more English or he
teaching Of Il in an entirely different
manner than now prevails. ReccEt
yrI.s have see ! advarc : in this mat
.cr, bit there is muc1 more 10 be done.
May the work Of the Los Angeles con
vention bear fruit in the near future.

Surprising a Case.

The automobile is coming. There
can be no doubt that it will be com
mon means of transportation in all our
cities in the near future, and it will be
a familiar sight on the country roads.
1t has reached Maine. and in few
summers all of us will have taken an
automobile ride. and some of us will be
owning one of the vehicles that carry
their own propelling power under the
seat. Portland saw its streets travelled
by an automobile, Wednesday, for the
first time. Now. for the sake Of sup
posing a case. let us suppose that the
automobile had ceased to be manage
able that it had dashed mady through
one of the main streets of Portland, i'm
peTAing pedestrians and teams per-
haps injuring a few persons or even
killing somebody, until at last its
power gave out or it crashed into some
obstacle. Such an occurrence Is not
| impossible. and what would have been
the result? Not only Portland but the
whole State would have been thrown
into panic. The papers would have
had big cuts of the dangerous machine.
| and scare headlines about its wild
runaway There would have been long
destructive things in "A crowded city.
or anywhere else. And some hysterical
people would probably have called for
special session of the Legislature to
pass a law forbidding the use of auto
mobiles in Maine.
There is nothing extravagant in such
a suppoSition; it is all possible and
reasonable enough. AS matter of
fact, the automobile in question was
kept in perfect control, but there are as
exciting and disastrous runaWays,
nearly every day, in Portland and all
| other cities as that which has been
pictured. They are automobile run
| aways, too, for the horse moves him
self and. strictly speaking, has right
to this title. But they excite. only a
passing curiosity and wonder how
much damage was done. So much de-
ponds on being used to things. AS the
automobile comes into general use it
will occasionally run away. The first
occasion of this kind will make a great
Juror. but we shall get nicely accus-
toned to it. just as we have to run
away horses. When the runaway
automobile is one of the established in
situations of progressive society it will
cause no more surprise than run
away horse: and, as a matter of fact
there will probably be fewer runaways
when that time comes.
