Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1900-09-14

Every republican paper almost in
the state has published Johanny
Hansen's call for populist conven-
ton at Lewiston. This convention
is to name electors for Barker and
Donnelly, the nAiddle-of-the-road
pop nominees for the presidency.
If he succeeds Bear Lake will be
one county that the ticket will go
through without single X. In
this county therefore it won't hurt,
but the republican papers hope it
may get some votes in other parts
of the state, hence their generous
ness IN giving the call and letter of
appeal, space.

has been that New York at least has
abolished the vertical myth and gone
back to Spencerian, however, leav-
ing the student to select the style
he can learn the easiest to be prof.
cient in.
There is another new tangled idea,
though, that has found lodgment
in some schools, and lower Mont
pelier IS one, that is, TO our mind, a
thousand times worse than the
vertical foolishness, urd it is the
scheme to deprive students of inter
mission either in the forenoon or
afternoon. This is to the ExAMIN-
ER's mind the most nonsensical and
harmful idea that ever was put in
practice. TO require little scholars,
or big ones either, to sit in school
room from to II O'Clock, or from
l to $3.50, without a breath of fresh
air Or q sparkle Of sunshine, cannot
be otherwise than injurious. Of
course theorists don't admit this,
but common sense does. Along
with this order in the Montpelier
school, so we are informed, is rule
that students shall not be.permitted
to leave the school room during
three hours session unless sick.
This is most vicious rule, because
it compels children to violate the
laws of nature, and everybody
knows that this cannot be done,
especially with little ones, without
causing serious physical injury.
Edward Box, the noted editor of
Ladies' Home Journal, says that the
public schools of America, as now
being conducted, give the child too
much indoors work and not enough
outdoors exercise. AS result, he
declares, that our schools are pro-
ducing race of debilitated and
physically ruinedpeople.
The EXAMINER makes these re-
marks in the hope that the matter
be investigated with regard to our
schools. And We feel sure that if
it is there will be less theory, and
more practical, Judgment used In
such matters.

Have you heard from Maine?
That democratic increase Of 30 per
cent in both Maine and Vermont is
causing the head that apes the.
crowned, to lie exceedingly uneasy.
Tie same rate of increase in the
middle west will land Bryan in the
White House by good majority. !.

The democrats have peculiar
way of doing business, Take Bear
Lake for example. The present
board of commissioners have made
good recordin reducing taxes, but
have done 1t az the expense of the
roads and bridges. Little work has
been done on the highways for the
past two years, and to-day the road
and bridge fund has considerable
balance in cash in it,

name men and women who will
more than offset the vote getting
proclivities of their opponents.

He Was Once Judge of the Criminal
Court Bench.

Edward c. Buskirk. who had for twenty
six years been prominently identified with
public affairs in this city, died
at the Sanatorium at 542 North
Illinois street, early yesterday morning.
His death was due to a complication of
diseases, and his health had been fast
failing for about a year. His wife died
about a year ago, and shortly after that
his mind became unbalanced. and ne was
sent to the Central Hospital. where he
remained for about three months. He
was brought back to this city and later,
when he showed signs Of again failing,
was sent to the sanatorium.
He was born In Bloomington. in 1881,
and after learning the printing trade, was
one of the first TO make the overland trip

No Lady Would Do
Such a Thing.

No lady would take her watch when
out of order, to the first person who dis
PLAYED the sign Watches Regulated
and Repaired" But she would carefully
enquire for a man whose acknowledged
skill entitled him to take IN charge the
delicate mechanism.
How much more careful should q
woman be, when she herself is disor-
derded, not to entrust the delicate and
complex mechanism of her being TO the
first man or woman who displays the
sign Medical Advice Given" No sign
is to be trusted which says Medical
Advice Given" and stops there. Medi-
cal advice can be given only by ply
stefan. An accredited physician will put
his title with his name Suppose a sign
reads, medical Advice Given by .
Man" What woman would rot in
stantly say, 1.-The fact of being a man
doesn't qualify him to give medical adj
vice. He must be a bhysfcfds to do
that" But suppose the sign reads !:
Medical Advice Given by a Woman"
Is not the fact Just as patent that being
Uondn does not qualify her TO give
medical advice. The woman must be
physician to do that. Medical advice
given by an unslxilled woman is Just as
dangerous as if given by an unskilled
man.
In inviting sick and ailing woman to
consult him by letter without charge,
DR.. Pierce points to an experience and
practice of over thirty years, devoted
specially to diseases peculiar TO women.
In that time DR.. Pierce and his associate
staff of medical specialists have success

women. All correspondence is treated
as strictly private and sacredly confden-

DEAD IN HIS CELL.
Some Mystery About the Sudden De-
mise of Oscar o. Carvin.

Oscar o. Carvin, who was sent to police
headquarters early yesterday morning and
slated for drunkenness. was found dead
on a bunk in the cell occupied by him
when his case was called in court. The
body after being examined by City Dis
pensary physicians was removed to the
morgue below. An autopsy was held by
the coroner and death was found to be due
to hemorrhage at the base of the brain.
DR.. Nash said he had no idea what had
caused the hemorrhage, but there were no
evidences of bruises.
Carvin was found early yesterday morn
ing lying on the sidewalk on Massa-
chusetts avenue near Pennsylvania street
He was apparently drunk, and the bicycle
police, after waking him up. started him
on his way home at 613 East North street
which he said was his address. He had
not gone far before he fell to the side
walk and the wagon was called and he
was sent to headquarters. When the de-
tectives made the usual morning survey of
prisoners Carvin did not appear and IL
was thought he was sleeping off the effects
CT liquor. When called in court he did not
respond and Turnkey Taffe went TO awaken
him. He was dead. His father and other
relatives live in Edinburg, Ind, and the
body was sent there yesterday afternoon
for burial.

JESSIE r.. BuLLoCk.s COMPLAINT.
She Denies Certain Allegations of Her
Former Husband.

Jessie r. Bullock filed an affidavit in SUI
perior Court. Room 1. yesterday in answer
to the affidavit of Henry W.. Bullock
against William Robertson, Roxanna Rob-
ertson and Jessie r. Bullock declaring
them liable for contempt of court for al
legged mistreatment and violation of the or
der of the court when he visited his child

Master designated that the father could
visit his daughter Thursday afternoons
from 2 to 5 o'clock and Sunday afternoons
from 3 TO O'clock.
ordered from the premises, but in the affi-
davit Of Mrs. Bullock she says that on Sum
day the order of the court was understood
to be from to 5 p. m, and he was asked
kindly to leave, but he insisted on staying
till o'clock. She says the next day she
Investigated the order and submits an
apology. She says that the reason the
baby''s chair was returned to the father
was because she had outgrown 1T and that
neither she nor the other defendants taught
her to say anything spiteful to her father
when he came to visit her.
She alleges that Bullock came to Robert
sons place while she was there and her
father was away and annoyed her. On one
of these visits Robertson found him there
and assaulted him, for which Bullock had
him arrested. She alleges that the reason
there was no carpet in the room where
Bullock comes to visit his child was be-
cause IL had been taken up for house,
cleaning, and that the room was not fur
nished because all the money they had. and
which had been set aside for the purpose
of furnishing the room, had to be spent to
pay Robertson's fine.
She says that Bullock would bring candy,
peanuts, sugar and oranges when he came
to visit the child. She says they were
trampled in ,ne carpet, which she consid-
ers just cause for its removal, but If the
court thinks that is the proper thing it will
be replaced.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Holden Dramatic Company at the
Park.

"a Barrel of Money was presented at the
night by the Holden Dramatic Company
to two audiences which seemed well
pleased. The strikingly realistic mill
scene In the third act was especially well
received The play is mixture of about
three-fourths comedy and one-fourth melo-
drama. the comedy being of the kind that
is easily grasped and which always ex-
cites boisterous laughter. Maude Phelps
as Roxy. r. ]. Ravencroft as Hy Hazlett,
Jack Ward Kett as Jim Rich, and Lafe
Mckee were the funmakers. Miss Phelps,
or Mrs. Dickson as she is known in private
life, is a vivacious. fluffy haired soubrette
with mischievous. winning face. She

has a powerful contralto voice, which she
uses in singing illustrated songs-the. kind

screen G.. III. Harris as Harrison Swift
was one OF the finest looking stage villains
seen in a good while, but seemed out Of
sympathy with his part. William Mong
In the role of Squire Hazlett did some good
character acting. The comedy hit of the
play was Mr.. Kett's appearance In the
last act. attired in tramp makeup which
might truthfully be said to stand without
a rival among stage DISCUSSES. Mr.. Kett
gave faithful portrayal of the besotted
individual who has, unfortunately, become
too common upon the stage. With the
exception of the mill scene, the settings
were all provided from the well-stocked
scene loft belonging to the Park Theater.
"A Barrel of Money" will be repeated
twice to-day. The bill changes tomorrow
afternoon to Wife for Wife, which is
said to be an unusually exciting melo-
drama.

AGAINST THE SALOON.
Mass Meeting Held at the Seventh
Christian Church.

The Seventh Christian Church in North
indianapolis was crowded to It's doors last
night with men and women. who had come
in response to a call for a mass meeting
to protest against the establishing of a
saloon opposite branch No. 1 of the Public
Library. Mr.. Caldwell chairman of the
Anti-saloon League. recently organized in
the suburb. opened the meeting with an
address, telling of the purposes of the
league; what IL had done since Its organ
ization, and of the tenacious battle to be
waged against the man who proposes to
operate saloon near the library.
After the chairman's address, Mr..
Sprague. chairman of the committee on
conference, reported having seen Mr..
Ahrens and talked 10 him about the mat
ter. Mr.. Sprague said Ii was Mr. Ahrens's
intention to act fairly with the people Of
the suburb: that after he had gone to the
expense of building house on the lot
he was not willing TO give up the idea with
out remuneration of some kind If the
committee would find him a purchaser for
the property he would sell the corner for
$500 and abandon the idea of starting a
saloon near the library. The time for that
was up yesterday and the committee again
called on Mr.. Ahrens and told him they
were unable TO find a purchaser for the
property at the price asked. as mahy to
whom they had talked thought Mr.. Ahrens
had about doubled the value of the place
longer to find a buyer.
The report OF the committee having in
charge the solicitation of names for the
remonstrance, reported having obtained POI
men and 451 women. This was considered
very good in the short time the commit
tees have been at work. and they will be
continued, and In the meantime the COM
mittees will be enlarged.
A number of people present made FIVE
minute talks In opposition to the saloon.
one speaker became so enthused that he
came down from the rostrum stood for
a while in the fore part of the church.
then mounted pew and shouted with all
his might that he was opposed 10 the grant
ing OF a license to any man I'm the LIQUOR
traffic. He also read short items from
the Nicholson law, showing that any resi-
dent or the suburb can obtain an arrest
and conviction OF saloon keeper who
does not conform strictly 10 the letter of
the law.
The league will meet May % in the Meth
odist Church TO hear further reports of
the committees

All day yesterday Judge Walkers court
room was crowded with witnesses and lis
teners to hear testimony in the attempt
to prove that Edward Miller, thirteen years
old. was driven to suicide by his step
mother, Mrs. Olive III. Daggy. by over
working him. Mrs. Daggy was appointed
guardian of Edward Miller. who hanged
himself with a clothes line four years ago.
and Walter Miller, who has now reached
his majority. An attempt is being made
to show that Walter Miller has earned his
keep and education, although Mrs. Daggy
says she has spent $500 for his benefit.
