COMPULSORY VACCINATION.


Under the head OF reports of commit
tees, Mr.. /. L. Alfriend, chairman of the
Committee on Health and Sanitation,
submitted a report in reference to the
communication from Mr.. Henry Lee Val
entlne, suggesting that the General As
sembly ct Virginia he requested 10 pass
a bill making vaccination compulsory in
the State Of Virginia. The purport of
the report was to the effect that after
consulting some of the Richmond deega-
ton he was informed that it would be
perfectly useless to endeavor to have
such a bill passed, as it was d measure
which would be sure to provoke opposi-
tlon, and the Legislature at its present
session was only considering uncontested
measures. Upon motion OF Mr.. H. e.
Marcuse the report was received and or
dered to be filed.

The Enrth,s Bendingn.

Little bendings are In progress all the
time the world over. The ''immovable"
hills are bowing and scraplng TO each
other constantly. Every evening, as the
dew settles in the valleys between
them, they nod TO one another So like
wise do the mountains, even to a great
er extent. Gravity Is tugging all the
time.
And in london, too. where earth
quake sensations are practically un-
known, the earth bends daily, and the
buildings, like the hills and the noun
tains, nod to their friends opposite
when the morning traffic begins. On
Sunday usually their manners take a
rest excepting in such places as Pettl-
caat lane, where business aourishes IN
as lively fashion as In Paris.

A Joke on - Pr ofessor.

Among some intensely amusing col
lege scrapes told by "a Graduate" in
The Ladies' Home Journal is the story
of certain professor not much liked
by his pupils who was to be married.
The lady lived in Cleveland. And the
students that loved (O him were not
of course invited. But they determin-
ed that in some way he should hear
from them. And he did. On tile day
appointed the professor took the train

| would advise that you determine
among yourselves what proportion of
the operators and the output this con-
vention or organization can control.
Your principal subject for solicitude as
outlined in the committees report has
been the questions of labor and pro-
duction. What matter if labor be too
high? That is not the point The main
thing is for this convention to get to-
gether and accomplish something that
will bring you profitable business.
The report has no mention of the
matter of "scrape," and yet this is of
the greatest Importance. Enough
money goes into the atmosphere every
year to make every man in this audi
ence rich to-day. The question of the
evaporation of turpentine is one of
great importance. We all know, of
course, that scrape will not yield as
much as dip, but evaporation takes
place on the face of the tree. Spirits
of turpentine is made up of carbon and
hydrogen, and absorbs oxygen from the
atmosphere. After this absorption IT
will not make turpentine, and naught
but rosin can be obtained, decreasing
the profits of the producer. How to
prevent that waste is another question.
1 am now working trying to get a prac-
teal method of securing this turpen-
tine that now floats away into space;
one that an negro hand can work.
Il see on all lands trees boxed that
are not big enough to make a walking
stick. When person works a tree like
that he is losing money. as well as de-
stroying that which might later bring
him money. We are making too hot
pace. We are now over half way on
the road to the end. Texas is the last
place.
IF in this work the National Bureau
of Forestry can be of service, and
shall be glad. Your committee report
brought out two lines; labor and cur
tailment of production. 1 wish to plead
curtailment of production by not work.
ing your trees too hard.
There has been improvement in
methods in agriculture, horticulture
and many other branches of industry.
But the methods on the turpentine
farm are the same as those in vogue
sixty years ago. AS a result there is
no more turpentine in the turpentine
belt from our state northward.

buttons adopted at a secret meeting to-

baugh of Chicago. The resolu ton au-
thorizes the order to. memorialize Con-
gress to enact laws to stamp anarchy
out of the country. Representatives of
the order from every state and, terri
tory in the Union voted for the resoIu-
tions, which are as fellows:
Resolved, That this order hereby

ings, by prohibiting any gathering
whatsoever at which anarchistic ten
cts are promulgated; prohibit both the
publication and circulation of newspa-
pers and documents containing such
teachings, and prohibit any plot
against the life of anyone holding high
Office in this or in any other land, and
provide penalties for the infraction of
these laws that shall be the most severe
known in civilized countries.

, POSTMASTER OF GREENSBORO.
Judge Joel f. Thornton Will Receive
the Appointments.


Washington. Sept. 10.-Friends OF
Judge Joel F. Thornton of Greensboro.
Ca, have been advised by the Post
master General that he will surely be
appointed postmaster at that place on
Oct 1 next. At the close of the last
fiscal year, June 80 it was found that
the postal receipts of the Greensboro
office had sufficiently increased to JUS
tify the postoffice authorities in adj
vancing that office from Class 4 to
Class 3. thus elevating 1t to the dig
nifty of a presidential office. with a
fixed salary of $1,000 per annum for
the postmaster, instead OF the uneer-
tain compensation which depends up
on the amount of postal business trans
acted by fourth class Office.
For some time past there has been
a lively struggle to get the new COM
mission for Judge Thornton, on the
part of the leaders of the regular Re-
publican organization in Georgia. II
was urged that the incumbent who has
done so much to build UP the business
of the Greensboro Office, should be re-
warded by promotion. II is also
contended that he has not yet served
four years in his present position. All
of the claims appear to have been
without avail, in the face Of the strong
pressure Of the party organization,
and to-day Judson Lyons. who is the
Republican referee in such matters
during the absence of Minister Buck,
stated that the appointment of Judge
Thornton had been decided upon and
he will be placed in charge of the Of
flee next month.

OFFERS TO BUY THE BONDS.
Gage Tries This Method to Relieve
Financial StrinSency.

Washington, Sept. 1O.-The following
announcement was made to-day at the
Treasury Department:
The Secretary of the Treasury here
by gives notice that he will consider
and receive proposals for the sale to
the government on account of the sink
ing fund of United States 3 per cent.
bonds, loans of 190S-191S; 4 per cent
bonds, funded loan of 1907; per cent
bonds, loan of 1925, and per cent.
bonds, loan of 1904. to an amount not
exceeding $20,0O0,000. Proposals should
be submitted to the Secretary by letter
or telegraph not later than Thursday
the 18th instant; any bonds accepted
to be promptly delivered at the United
States treasury at Washington or to
the sub-treasury in New York.
THE right to reject any or all pro-
posals is expressly reserved.
IL. ]. Gage Secretary"
The secretary also has directed that
internal revenue receipts be deposited
with national bank depositaries up to
the par value of all bonds deposited,
including the per cent. bonds.
Commenting upon the offer made in
his circular, Secretary Gage said that
gun throughout the country, and he did
not desire that the treasury should
absorb millions of dollars that might
be in trade channels. The sub treasu-
ries in the West and South have been
calling heavily for currency to move
the crops and the amount sent so far
is in excess of any year in the history
of the treasury.
The placing of additional money with
the national bank depositaries will di-
vert about s5,0O0.000 from treasury
vaults and put it into circulation. AT
the same time the purchase of SIC, 000,-
600 in bonds would be decided relief
The only question now is whether the
offers to the secretary will be such as
to induce him to purchase the amount
he desires or any sum at all. The ten
dency in offers of this kind is to cause
the prices of bonds to rise. Secretary
Gage does not intend to pay above
what the bonds are worth and will
make no purchases if the offers indi-
cate that the market prices are to be
raised.
