If there were more Sheritfs with
the grit and cOnscientiOusneSs OF
Sheriff Fly of Gonzales county,
there wOuId be fewer lynchings in
this country. A mob will not lie
likely to shoot down a sheriff who
merely does the duty he is sworn
to do, when he protects a helpless
prisoner that is under his charge.
A cool, determined stand by the
sheriff would in most cases deter
the mob from violence. True, there
are some instances when every
mau, with his red blood in his
VEINS" as Claridge puts it, must
feel that lynehing is unsuitable, bnt
for ordinary crimes, it is in the
interest of law and order and the
welfare of the state, that the law
should he allowed TO take its
course.

The HERALD has receiy

The HERALD has received a
sample of rice raised by Henry
Adams on his farm six miles from
town. He had only small patch
planted, about two pounds of seed,
as an experiment. The head
which The HERALD has is we'll
developed, though the rice has not
had any water on II for thirty
days. 1t is from Honduras seed.
The success Of Mr. Adams with
this little patch, in unusually dry
weather and lacking the necessary
moisture, shows what can be ac-
complIshed with this staple here
if properly cultivated.

PROF. MALLY proposes that the

PROF. MALLY proposes that the
schools instruct their pupils some
what in bug-OlOgy, at least to the
extent of teaching what kind of
insects are friendly TO crop inter
ests. Many insects which are
commonly destroyed should be pro-
tected, as they do not injure fruits
or field crops, but, on the contrary,
are beneficial, in that they feed up
on the eggs aud larvae of crop de-
stroying insects. The same lessons
should be taught concerning
birds, many of which are of
real service in destroying worms
and insects that feed on nseful
plants, and some of the harmless
snakes that are killed should also
be spared, for their prey is the
field mouse that is so destructive
TO growing grain. The human
family should learn to discriminate
between friend and foe, in Its deal
ings with the beasts and birds and
insects, and Prof. Mally's suggest
ion should be adopted,

A turn for satire is sometimes
good thing, but judgment should
be used welding that scOurge. An
editor, as is generally believed. is
a man of discretion, and should
know when and upOn whom to use
the lash of satire. 1t has been said
that you can't indict a nation, and
just as truly, yOn can't lndict a

guilty of excuses that might de

PREPARATION OF BARLEY.

Among the rocky fields Of the Faroes
stand cabins built of rough stones and
turf used for drying barley. The cold
summers here never rlpen the grain,
and after it is cut in October, 1t must
be subjected to a strong heat for TWEEN
ty-four to thirty-si hours. A great
fire of peats is built on a high raised
hearth of stone; about five feet above
it wooden beams support laths fastened
several inches apart. These are COW
cred with layer of straw, on which
unthreshed barley is spread to the
depth of several inches, and allowed to
dry. Passing near a cabin, / venture
to peep in and there see a group wor-
thy of Millet's brush. Three women,
with skirts Killed high and heads bound
up like Millet's "Gleaners," are tread
ing out the grain with their bare feet.
Their bodies slightly bending, and
heads resting on their hips they trot to
and fro, singing as they go snatches
of some Farce peasant song. The air is
luminous with golden dust and the
freight flashes over their strong sup
pie bodies and large fair faces 1t is
charming picture, and rare one in
these days of machine labor.
But this treading of the barley does
not sufficiently separate the grain from
the husk. The next step is to beat 1t
with fails; not the jointed fails for
merly in use in America, but "treskyu-
trea,'' which resemble a baseball bat,
fattened little toward the end. I was
fortunate enough to see the whole pro-
cess for the women, after questioning
me curiously for several minutes, con-
fer among themselves, and I hear them
say, "She is from America, and there
they do not know the way of Farce
folk we must show it all to her. At
ter treading vigorously for perhaps f1f-
teen minutes they bring out the fails
and, kneeling on the floor, WELD them
vigorously; the blows falling, one, two,
three-one, two, three, In perfect time.
Later they take down large shallow
trays of wood from the walls, and put
ting the grain in them separate the
chaff by shaking the trays from side to
side.-Good Words.

PARIS BEAUTIFIED

In the administration of Paris, mu-
nicipal art is divided between two de-
partments, which is to say, between
national and municipal authorities.
The State Direction des Beaux Arts has
the care of all national museums, which
in Paris include the Louvre and the
Luxembourg; of historic monuments,
such as the Musee de Sluny; Of subsi-
died theatres, as the Opera, the Ope-
ra Comique, the Coincide Franchise and
the Odeon. 1t is clear that this depart
ment of the state government has much
to do with the artistic side of Paris.
The second department, the Service des
Beaux Arts of the city, concerns itself,
on the other hand, with the decoration
of municipal and departmental build
ings such as the Hotel de Vile and the
mairies; with the purchase of works
from the Salon; with the public fetes;
with subventions for monuments and
statutes; with the participation of the
city in French and foreign eXpositions,
and with various other duties. For the
palmer, and what we may call for con-
venience the more strictly civic art
since it has to do with streets and
parks-there is now q department of
the municipal government known as
the Direction Administrative des Ser
vices d Architecture ct des Promenades
ct Plantations, which does most of this
work 1t comprises also the so-called
services" of the highway inspection
and of the plan of Paris; it looks after
all the parks, the squares and even the
cemeteries; has superintendent of the
city's culture of trees, plants and flow

NEED OF HIGHER TECHNICAL
TRAINING

Commercial schools have no room al
lotted to them in our educational sys-
tenn in spite of it's vast outlay. Owing
to their ignorance of the language of
| the country, our statesmen and buyers
when sent to foreign markets are in the
| hands of the local COMMISSIONERS I'M
less they have received a foreign bust
ness education. Our manufacturers
testify to the absurd inadequacy of our
educational facilities by their employ
ment of OF foreigners, largely English,
| in intermediate positions, as overseers
and managers. Our silk manufa cturers
draw their best talent from men edu
Gated in the Crefeld school. Many of
them have themselves gone through it's
course, and are sending their sons to
enjoy the same advantage. A few men
scattered here and there can scarcely
| build up an industry. Unless we can
! distribute educated talent through all
| the departments in dyeing, finishing
and the intermediate processes, we may
| boast of the quantities of silk annually
thrown on the market, but our prod
ucts will not rise above their present
standard. The deficiency in color and
finish, when comparison is made with
the rich hues of foreign fabrics, Is too
apparent to require comment.
Our tariff, by excluding foreign COM
petition, condemns our industries to
esthetic inertia. An attempt to reach
higher ideals of perfection is unneces-
sary where the law assures a monopoly
of trade. The examples of better for
eign work, by which taste is diffused
and stimulated, are absent, and pro-
Queer and consumer alike become sat
isfield with good enough because
better" Is unknown. This makes it all
the more necessary to create vehicles
for the spread of knowledge in art and
science, and opportunities for high
technical training in industries which
depend entirely on tastelas their spark
of life. Whatever we do must start
from the standpoint Of art-the esthatic
idea. Mere weaving schools would give
our manufacturers good loom fixers
and overseers, but would leave the ac-
tual products in the same unattractive
condition.
Millions upon millions are annually
expended by munificent donors on uni
versities and colleges. The golden rain
never reaches the parched ground
which most needs it. We cannot well
appeal to the state for so necessary an
aid to our Industrial development. We
should be speaking to deaf ears. Our
manufacturers are only beginning to
understand how the industries to which
they owe their fortunes would profit
from the higher training of the work
ers. They prefer to exploit in their own
mills the highly educated talent of Eu
ropean countries rather than to create
schols at home. Those who are able to
avail themselves of this advantage
would rather see the utilization Of this
talent confined to the few than have
schools at home distribute this knowl-
edge over the whole industrial sphere.

and the Holy Synod Democracy is
the most complicated and the most
burdensome system of government re-
corded in the history of humanity, cries
the procurator. He denounces the
modern craving after mammon, the
mania for money; he sees luxury ana

the inevitable accompaniments most
abhorred of M. Pobiedonostseff. M.
Witte in word, is inoculating Rus
STA with this poisonous virus of western
industrialism, from which all western
symptoms must ultimately follow. But
we can go much further than this and
say that there is no part of the world
where the development of factory pro-
duction is so perilous from the political
point of view as in Russia, where the
national temperament flies, in all

has been already suggested that the
Russian mind, dreamy, inexperienced
and idealistic, and saturated with the
commercial feeling takes to Socialist

promote a revolution than any which
have ever prevailed in other countries.
