Gently a decree was issued giving her

cred that the countess frequently Wis

scended. without a word fired three
times, zach shot taking effect. His wife

To Boycott the Newspapers.

w. A. Clark of Montana, recently
foiled in his attempt to break into the
United States Senate, shows how little
he knows about metropolitan journal
ism by declaring that not a detail of
the wedding of his daughter, who is to
be married in a fashionable New York
church, next week, shall be published
in the newspapers. He says he is dis
gusted with the newspapers for the
way they have treated him, that he
does not intend to read them any
more, and that he proposes to estab-
lish a general boycott against them.
If Mr. Clark wishes unusual publicity
in this matter. he has taken a shrewd
means of getting it, but if he wants
his daughter to avoid all the adver-
Using given by an elaborate write-up
with scare" headlines, pictures, etc,
he has taken the wrong course. His
defiance will simply give zest to the
work of the society reporters, and add
To lllt CuItoSlly anu Win
which they will go about their task.
They will get all the details and add
literally to them for good measure,
and the chances are that Mr.. Clark
and family will faithfully read the ac-
counts.
1t is not the habit of newspapers in
these days to establish bureaus for the
suppression of news; and when
swell wedding comes off in which the
lionaire of national notoriety, and in
which the outlay of money is fabu-
lousy lavish, the papers are going to
publish all about it that is worth pub
fishing. and a lot more which the pub
lie insists on having. There is no way
to prevent them. for such items of
news are public property, and there
are no end Of ways TO get all the par
ticulars. To be sure. there is no eX-
cuse for the yellow journals which 20

be believed that his attitude was an
attempt to avoid treatment like this.
But the copper king is simply eXas-
pcrated to find that the United States
| Senate and the American press are not
so easily manipulated as Montana

get revenge on the papers for the
merciless exposure they have given Of

Maine must look to her laurels. For
many years ii has been the proud
boast of the Pine Tree State that il is
in this northeast corner of the Union
that the pie belt is located. The
mothers and grandmothers have made
pies in years agone which have been
popularity supposed TO have reached
the acme of the pie makers art. The
Maine pie has ranked with the Maine
pine tree. the Maine moose and the
Maine ice crop. 1t has been supposed
that both in the quantity and quality
of its pies, apple. minCe, pumpkin and
berry, Maine was in the lead, but now
the greatest city Of the country. where
is located the headquarters Of the
trust which has gobbled the ice crop
OF Maine lakes and streams. has gone
into the pie business ana 50 far as
quantity is concerned has put the
grand Ola State uf Maine entirely in
the shade. There are in round num-
bcrs nearly seven hundred thousand
people in Maine. If one-third Of the
population are females Of an age when
they might be expected to make pies,
not including the mud pies of child
hood, they each would be obliged to
make pie every other day to keep MP
with the New York output. The New
Workers are making pies on a new and
up-to-date plan. They do not roll the
crust with rolling pins in the kitchens
Of their houses and bake them in the
range. Oh, no, the New York pie
maker has a factory and the factories
,F No aaanrIinpr 70
paper writer, turns out 100000 pies a
day. One factory alone is able to
make 90. 900 pies in "a hours. The fig
ures of the factory output do not in
clude the pies made in the small bake
shops and in private houses. Now. in
the face of these figures. Maine must
of necessity yield the palm to New
York in the matter of quantity, but
YOU can't make the Maine-born pie
eater believe that these machine pies
come anywhere near the standard
fixed by the pies that mother used TO
make at home. He will cling to the
notion that the pies made IN the
Gotham factories are about as near to
the real article as the white and flabby
pellets floating in Il sea of fat which
in the great West are sometimes de-
scribed as baked beans, are to the
Saturday night dish Of his youthful
DAYS. Pies may be made in factories.
they may be put up in cans or pre-
served in syrup like fruit, but never
can you make the Mainc-born man
believe that they are real good pies,
He will be loyal to the pie belt Of his
youth, the country Of pies. the pies q
the grand old State Of Maine. grand IN
its scenery. grand in its statesmen
and grand in its pies.

We spoke the other day of the 800
patriotic workmcn in a New York fac
tory who struck and refused
to return to work until the
American flag was restored to
its proper place above the other flags
which waved over the building. An
even more unique strike is reported in
the works Of New Jersey glass com
pany. There. 100 boys left work, com
peIling the shutting down Of the whole
plant, because the manager kept a
horse working all day and until mid
night each night The horse couldn
strike. though there was prospect
il would soon be worked to death. and
50 the boys took up the case. The act
Of the youngsters does credit to their
humanitarian instincts and we hope
they were equally successful with the
New York workmcn who struck for
the honor of the flag. If all boys were
like those in the employ of this New
Jersey firm, there would be no need of
the society with the long name.
