Something for the "AlI-Home Prints

is simply foolishness for the publisher.
outside of large cities to try to print
his paper all at home as his forefathers
used to do, when no other way was open
to them.
The principal and legitimate field of the
country weekly is first its town, county
and state, and then the outside world.
1t is now possible for the country pub
Usher to secure in some Of the large cities
paper partly printed. which contains the
news of the day from all over the world.
as well as the state news of his own
state. Owing to superior facilities and
machinery this central Office can supply
these partly printed sheets made up of the
very latest and up to date matter, in
GLIDING telegraphic news of all important
events, illustrated articles on topics which
are engaging the worlds attention, popu-
lar sermons and letters, and in fact
every attraction that Is calculated to
make the country publisher a strong COM
petitor of the city paper which becomes
his opponent to an extent when IL reaches
out to the country towns for subscribers.
This ready printed paper, while it does
all the above also gives the publisher
more time to attend to other matters
from which money can be made, and TO
neglect which causes a loss. We refer, for
instance, to job printing, collection of
bills securing new subscribers and adj
vertisers, and a number of other import
ant and profitable occupations.
Any publisher who adVertises that he
prints his paper all at home is making
very shallow boast, If he really does so,
since he cannot give his readers nearly az
good service as otherwise. If he is making
the claim while using plates to fill out
with, he is misrepresenting the facts,
because the setting up of the type to make
the plates which be uses is a part OF
the printing of his paper, and the matter
is edited, set in type and stereotyped
away from home.
There are few. If any. country week
lies in this state, or any other state,
which do not use either ready prints or
plates-consequently the really all-home-
print paper is. out of date-almost OBJ
solete-a thing of the past-and surely
nothing to boast of!
Oven ten thousand publications In the
United States are at present being partly
printed away from home, and we are
pleased to say that ours is one of this
number We have found the plan ma
terial help in many ways. Our work is
half done for US every week when we re-
ceive our paper; and the rapid growth of
our subscription list and our advertising
columns since we adopted it form the
best proof of its popularity with both
readers and advertisers

the Booker Washington Normal insti-

Tuskegee on the evening train. and
about 8 O'Clock. in carriages. with
Congressman Thompson. Rev. Mr..
Trawick and other gentlemen. / drove
out 10 the chapel or auditorium OF
the school and we walked in and took
our seats on the platform. There
were tweuty-four hundred students
sitting before me and a choir OF two
hundred behind US. IL was a marvel
Gus sight % look upon. They gave Us
three songs. two OF classical music
and one alon- the line OF the old-fash-
toned negro melodies. and with this
one they well night lifted the roof
from the great building. I was then
introduced 20 the audience and spoke
for an hour and a half. I am sure
] never spoke 10 a more respectful. at
tentive. appreciative audience. After
the lecture we had other songs. and
the entertainment. not including my
lecture. was immense.
/ talked vita several OF the leading
citizens OF Tuskegee and questioned
them closely as 70 the nature. infiu-
once and efficiency OF that school. They
spoke uniformly in the highest terms
OF Booker Washington and the great
work he was going. The institute is a
city IN itself. with its electric lights,
its many buildings. and the auditorium
IN which I spoke is one OF the finest
IN America This school not only has
its literary features. but Il is a bee

the school nodded the brick in each

now. and / learned that there were
so additional applicants who had 20
be turned away. Rev. Mr.. Trawick
told me that on some occasion at the
college some weeks ago. Congressman
Thompson made a few remarks on the
platform. and Booker Washington got
up and IN his remarks said that he had
kept close record OF all his students
and graduates OF the normal institute
OF TuskeEee. and not a single student
or graduate had ever broken into the
congress. 7 asked Booker Washing

He said: Those are the facts"

you educate a negro he is headed for

people right. / heard that he said TO
his students some weeks ago: Now,
don't any Of you cherish the idea of
social equality. 1t viii be a thousand
years" he said, before you can think
and talk along that line You have got
70 put a thousand years Of industry, Of
history, OF poetry, Of science, OF
achievements behind you before you
can dare think of social equality, much
less talk about IL, and" said he, IF you
get an idea like that into your head 1
can discover IL very soon. and you will
have to emigrate from here" He said
You do not need to think Of how so
cial equality can be brought about, but
you need 10 think, How can make an
honest living and provide meat and
bread and clothes and homer" Booker
Washington is a general He is more
than that. he is a king. He rules with
absolute authority the thousands who
attend his school; his word is law. The
discipline of the school is magnificent,
and IL ta-.es great generalship to put
twelve hundred girls and twelve hun
dred boys in the same great buildings
as pupils and run them with so little
friction.

From the Autobiography of Thief, in Leslie's

The pull of the professional thieves with out

respect and consideration of the keepers. One
day a convict named Ed Whit Ginning
with an Irish keeper Jokes in stir lead to
friendship, and when the screw told Ed that he
wanted a job for his daughter, Ed said that
he thought he could place her in good posi-
ton. The old screw laughed and said, You
loafer, IL you were made to carry a bod you
wouldn't be splitting matches" But Ed meant
what he had said and wrote to a famous New
York politician. Mr.. Wet Coin, I will call him,
and Mr.. Wet Coin gave her position type
writer and stenographer at S14 week. The
old screw took his daughter to New York and
when he returned he began to Mister Ed.

Jack cade's Castle.
New York Times.

A historical monument in the form of
Jack Cade's Castle in the Sussex was
offered for sale at TOkenhouse yard, Lon
don, the other day, but the eloquence OF
the auctioneer failed to draw a larger bid
than $500, at which price the property
was withdrawn. The 18th century rising
instigated by Cade was at one time OF
sufficient dimensions to threaten the
throne of Henry VI, but his followers
gradually dropped away. and eventually.
after being refused an asylum at Queens
borough castle. the notorious rebel fed
into Sussex in disguise. and took refuge
at "Cade's Castle" or Newick. as its
proper name is. In the garden of the
house tradition says Cade was killed by
the sheriff of Kent.

The Unouardcd Gates.

has been most marked in the past
generation and must make deep i'm
preston upon every thoughtful Ameri-
can. The better class of immigrants
the thrifty and intelligent class which
quickly catches the American spirit
and furnishes us loyal and active
citizens. the immigrants from Eng
land, Ireland, France, Germany and
Scandinavia-has been steadily grow
ing smaller in recent years, while the
increase has been rapid in the number
of those coming from the eastern and
southern parts of Europe. This is
much to be regretted. Those who I'M
derstand national characteristics see in
it a great menace The situation makes
louder the demand for immigration re-
strictions which will not leave our
gates unguarded.
The extent of the change which is
taking place and the impressive totals
are well shown in a circular issued by
the immigration Restriction League.
This organization proposes that all
immigrants be subjected to an educa-
tional test, as was provided for i'll the
Lodge bill which failed to become a
law. The circular has some immiSra-

The Old Home week idea has gone
beyond New England borders, as was
to be expected. 1t is Maryland that
is now discussing it, and the Balti-
more American, the leading paper of
the state, is actively urging Governor
Smith to follow the example of the New
England governors and designate a
week to be observed by the return and
reunion of former residents. While
Maryland. like all states in the East,
has sent many of it's sons to New
York and to the West, the exodus has
not been so large as from the New
England section. Still it ought to
have a successful Old Home week and
we hope the plan will be carried Out

A War Cloud Over the Alps.

The European war cloud which has
been having a rest for some time is
now trotted out to do duty again. The
occasion Of it's appearance on the
horizon is the quarrel between Switzer-
land and Italy. The details of the
rupture are meager, but whatever the
cause, unless Switzerland is obviously
in the wrong, American sympathy will
be with the little mountain republic as
against the more powerful monarchy.
But though Italy is larger and stronger
the odds will not be wholly with it in
case a war actually follows this quar-
rel. most unlikely contingency. The
Swiss people for centuries have been
great fighters and the nature of their
country makes it almost impossible to
wage successful war against them. On
the offensive they would not be likely
to wipe Venice, Naples and Rome from
the map. but on the defensive it is a
safe wager they would hold their OVID
against overwhelming numbers.
Italy has a strong navy, but not be-
ing equipped with a mountain climb
ing attachment it would not readily
shell Geneva or drive the sons of Will
liam Tell from their native crags.
Italy also has large army, but before
it could conquer Switzerland it would
have experiences that would make the
story of Hannibal and his army cross
ing the Alps seem very tame and I'M
interesting. The hardy Swiss have
always breathcd the spirit of freedom.
1t thrives where the air is fresh aid
pure. "Montani Semper Liberi' is no
more applicable to the West Virginians
than to Swiss mountaineers. But let
us hope that diplomacy will step in
and act as oil on the troubled waters.
The world needs peace more than ii
needs even such a picturesque war as
one between Switzerland and Italy
would be.
