Colonel Peek thought the railroads
make excessive charges for transpor-
tation. He did not think the state or
interstate commerce commissions could
settle this problem, and said the only
correction was in government owner
ship. One of the most important evils
in Colonel Peek's opinion is that a few
men own so much land. He believed
the government ought to place re-
striction on the amount of land man
may own. He said there were 30 per
cent. of the men in this country who
today owned all of the land.
He suggested that some kind OF leg
islation was needed to make the home
more sacred. There ought to be some
plan to prevent home owners from los
ing their all.

Duck Greek Coal.

In conversation with prominent
coal men, who are in position to
know, the Caldwell Leader is moved
to predict that it is but question of
a few years, and probably but months,
when the Duck Creek Valley will be
great coal producing field. Tests
have proven that three excellent coal
veins, ranging in thickness of from
five to nine feet can be had in the
vicinity of Caldwell at a depth that it
would not be impossible to mine at
profit. lit is said that the territory is
underIaid with rich beds of coal, and
before many years Duck Creek Valley
will be noted for it's enormous coal
fields, even surprising probably those
of the Hooking Valley. Last Satur-
day morning while at the Pennsylva-
mia depot, The Leader man says he
was reliably informed by an out of
town gentleman, who is in position to
know, that before another year coal
shafts would be sunk in the immediate
vicinity of Caldwell and that the
black diamonds would Gbe hauled from
there by numberless carloads. He
says he was taken into the confidence
of this gentleman, who gave permits
sion to make the above statement, but
Iimparted much other information of a
confidential nature that he is not at
liberty to divulge at the present time.
| Then, the immense gas field that has
been found at Dudley is sure and GER
ltain indication that rich oil fields lie
adjacent thereto and somebody is go
ling to strike it, and Strike it rich, too.
But time must be allowed to develop
these rich fields, for rich they are, and
he who strikes first will be the lucky
dog"
We have every confidence of the
above statements and believe we shall
see the day when they are proven to
jall. The opening of a coal field in that
lterritory would put the G. & M. Dlvi-
sion of the Pennsylvania road in the
first class of coal roads in Ohio, and of
course would benefit Cambridge to
"a considerable extent.-Sun.

zone of the most glaring faults Of

himself to lamb chops and mullins, "peo-

tellectuality that is on the wane," said
the judge, eying appreciatively the
Jersey cream that his hostess was pour
ing over a saucer of Strawberries.
Look. for instance, at the thousands
of people who never read anything but
the newspapers, who are really dead
from a mental standpoint"
The doctor and professor emphatical
ly indOrsed the noble sentiments of the
judge. and the symposium pursued its
course. along with the courses of the
breakfast, says the Washington Star.
1t was delicious breakfast to eat, and
charming one to look at. A crystal
vase in the middle of the table held
stalk of white lilies; their petals
matched the snowy tablecloth and
their gold stamens the embroidery on
the centerpiece. There was a pretty
| array of delicate china and solid silver.
The red of the strawberries and toma-
toes and the brown of chops, toast and
mullins made a nice color scheme. A
bunch of scarlet poppies andfeathery
ferns looked into the mirror of the
sideboard, and the morning wind came
in through the folds of fresh, white
curtains. 1t was a fitting place for the
discussion of intellectually and spir
ituality.
At the foot of the table sat small
tired+looking woman. who took no part
in the symposium. Calmly and indus
triously she poured coffee and sugared
strawberries, furtively watching the
children's table manners and her
| guests needs. No one would have
dreamed that she had soul above muf-
fins, but her brain kept up running
commentary on the remarks of the
Judge the doctor and the professor.
"1ntellectuality and spirituality, in

if you men ever get so intellectual and
spiritual that you don't have to eat,
then therell be some chance for women
to cultivate their intellects and spirits.
Not intellectual to read the newspa-

the bitterness went out of that won.

THEIR NEIGHBORLY WAY.
Made Themselves Acquainted and
Didn't Wait Long to Begin
Borrowing Things.

A young woman of Washington birth
and rearing who has made her home
for these three years past in a small
Indiana town says that for tact and
diplomacy she knows nobody to equal
her neighbors out there, relates the
Washington Post. She had scarcely
settled herself in her new home when
one day she heard hen proudly
cackling in her back yard. She went
out to see what could have brought
a strange hen into her yard, and
found that the fowl had just laid an
egg in the woodboX outside the kitchen
door. While she was still wondering
where on earth the creature had come
from the shock head of thin and tall
girl of 12 rose over the fence which
divided the yard from the yard of the
house next door.
"Hello!" said the girl.
Woodworking" answered the
Washingtonian.
We've got plenty O. eggs" remarked
the girl. NAV says you kin have
that one our hen jes' laid in that
woodboX O. yourn."
"Thank you very much," said the
Washingtonian.
The girl still hung on the fence.
"We amt goin' to charge you moth
in fer it," she went on.
'That's very kind, indeed" an
swered the new neighbor.
''Its gift" remarked the girl.
Then there was silence for few
moments. The girl still clung to her
side of the fence.
Say" she said, finally, "maw says
now you're acquainted with us folks
she'd like to borry tack hammer"
