Sensible Suggestion.

The more the subject Is discussed
the more nearly unanimous Is becom'
ing the sentiment of South Oak ota peo.
pie in favor of creditable exhibit at
St. Louis. The state business mems
league at its meeting in Huron next
week will unquestionably formulate
some plan for raising money and secur.
ing the appointment of the proper
committees at once. There is not
great deal of time 10 waste. While it
will not be necessary to begin erecting
a building before fall, it will be better
to start gathering the exhibit early in
the spring. We should not be caught
short at St. Louis as we were at Chi
cago and have no exhibit before the
middle of the exposition. We should
have everything in shape when the
gates are first opened. To do this the
display must be selected this year.
Then, too, if the state erects a corn
palace, the plan which seems most
popular, it will take much time to pre-
pare the grain pictures, arabesques and
other ornamentation and all of this
should be taken in hand at the first
opportunity. The general design Of
the building, the arrangement Of the
exhibits, the location and design of the
ornamentation, should be carefully
considered by the most competent ar
lists. Hurried work is never the most
snccessfull. We are to make an exhi-
bition at st. Louis. That is practical
ly settled. Now let US have one that
will stand out unique, which will COM
mand universal attention, which will
not only give to all visitors thorough
exemplifcation of the resources, pro-
gress and wealth of this state, but will
do so in thoroughly artistic manner.
We can have display which will be
one of the most conspicuous on the
grounds and which will live in the
memory of the people who frequent the
fair. But it all takes time and careful
planning. Argus Leader.

The Iowa Homestead says: Will corn
reach dollar per bushel? think not.
1t is now very near its limit. Even
now many are finding all kinds of sub
stitutes.
Gel plows and cultivators sharpened
and put in good condition for spring
work and when the time comes for u.s.
ing them there will he no delay. OF
course this is meant for the man who
failed to get that done before putting
the tools away in the fall.
Feeding an improbable COW or an
old plug horse is worse than a mort
gage to the extent of the food con-
sumed. One seems to be as hard to eradi.
cate as the other. They will steal the
farmers labor and his hope. Some
times they work in such manner as to
drive the boys from the barn and make
the girls shy Of farmers sons who are
matriomonially inclined. Don't feed
forty dollar plug fifty dollars worth
of feed.

WHEN KING EDWARD WAS
HERE.
A Newspaper Scoop That Was
Original But Expensive.

When the present king of England
was in the United States and touring
the country as Baron Renfrew," the
leading papers of New York were just
as anxious to SCOOP their rivals then
as now. The writer who was connect
ed with the editorial rooms of the New
York Herald, and had knowledge of
the determination of Mr.. Bennett to
outdo his rivals in reporting the re-
ceptions rendered the Prince of Wales.
The dramatic editor of the Herald at
that time was Stephen R. Fiske, and
he was both a brilliant writer and
original. Fredric Hudson was the
editor in chief. and in hunting for
the right man to send to Niagara Falls,
decided MIR. Fiske was q match for all
competition, and he was sent accom-
panied by a corps of assistants. The
Prince landed at St. Johns and was
heading for the states at Detroit which
gave him chance to see Can ada from
one end to the other. The Princes
reception and entertainment at Niaga-
ra was to escape everything in the
Canadian side, and it did. OF course,
in 1860, the United States was small
compared with the present. The 1ele'
graphic service then was crude and
simple. There was only one wire from
Niagara Falls to New York and only one
operator. Mr.. Fiske determined to
scoop" the other fellow and he did
and his method under the rule. was
perfectly justifiable. The first man to
get the wire was entitled to hold it
until he got all his matter off. The
only way Fiske could be absolutely
safe was to get the wire in advance of
reception reports and hold it until his
staff brought in the details of the
Princes reception. Mr.. Fiske went in
to the little telegraph Office and sized
things up carefully. He knew that the
Herald cared nothing about expense if
a genuine scoop" was secured. Mr..
Fiske opened the bible and gave the
operator Genesis and told him to pile
Genesis into the Herald Office until he
received further information. The
writer happened to sit where he could
see Mr.. Hudson when the telegraph
boy brought in a great bunch of tape
message, printed, at that time, on a
continuous paper tape. Mr.. Hudson
unrolled about 30 or 40 feet and threw
it down. 1t was not long until another
big bunch was brought in and handed
the Editor. Then he got mad, didn't
swear any, paced up and down his
office for a while and sat down just as
another batch of Genesis was handed
him. He couldn't account for it, hav-
ing no knowledge of Fiske's game and
determination to scoop the other
papers. The New York Herald had a
full report and published an extra,
and had the extra all over the city
before any of the other papers had got
a complete report. 1t was a great
scoop" and held the record in New
York for many years.

"GOd Give us Men,"

Inter Ocean: The Fifty.seventh
Congress has been long enough in
session to reveal its tendencies and to
outline its record.
Looking at the situation as it is in
Washington today, thoughtful Ameri-
cans see the House attempting to dis
criminate against our Filipino wards
as we never Disseminated against them
when they were utterly foreign to US.
They see Cuba, whose bonds to Spain
we Dissolved, menaced with complete
commercial separation from, us, and
with a commercial isolation which
even the Madrid government did not
impose upon he1. They see the aspir-
alton of the American people for an
isthmian canal that will at the same
time facilitate their commerce and
strengthen their national defense,
paltered with, and tossed about as if 1t
were merest trifle OF the day.
And all this they have seen done at
the behest of three or four special in
terests whose part in the nation is but
a tiny fraction Of the whole.
On tho other hand, what what do the
people see as the only constructive
piece of legislation likely to be accom-
plished by this Congress? The ship.
subsidy bill-a measure designed and
promoted chiefly 10 take the peoples
money and put it in the pockets of
special interests which are we'll able to
take care of themselves and to add to
the profits of the two most powerful
industrial combinations of the age.
This is the record Of the majority
the Republican majority-in the Fifty
Seventh Congress up to The present.
This is the record which, if not speed
lily altered, the Republican party must
carry into the congressional elections a
few month hence, and which President
Roosevelt and his party must defend,
if they can, in the general election two
years hence.
God give us men, prayed great
American poet in a dark hoar of the
nations life. The republican party
and the nation, as they contemplate
the record now making by the Fifty
Seventh Congress, may we'll re-echc
that prayer.

SCHOOL BOARD WILL ISSUE
BONDS WORTH $4,000
A Small Meeting Held At the Central
School House Last WedneS-
day Evening.

The meeting of the taxpayers which
was called by the school directors of dis
trict number Z, was very lightly attended
last Wednesday evening, only few men
being present.
Business was at once entered into and
after some argument it was decided to
make an issue of bonds amounting to
$4,000. Discussion was had over the
advisability of building temporary
wooden structures for the accommoda-
ton of the pupils, but as funds can only
be raised for cheap buildings there was
really only one side to the question.
The bond issue of $1,000 is thought suf-
ficient to cover all contingencies which
will necessarily accumulate in the fitting
up of new school houses.
superintendent Jolley was present at
the meeting and reported on the num-
Der of school children now on the rolls
and the prospects of more to come.
There are now enrolled in the city
schools 1854 pupils with only 11O9 desks
to accommodate them. OF course this
state OF affairs at once proves the neces-
sity of quick action on the part of the
school directors and the taxpayers in
the city to take some step to alleviate
the congested situation. During the
m Getting Director Nichols read some sta
tistics compiled from the federal census
report which pertained to the average
cost of maintaining schools per capita
for children, and he then said that the
cost in North Yakima at the present
time was below those figures. Professor
Jolley also stated that forty pupils is all
that any one teacher should be in charge
of in order for the teacher to do Justice
to the work, and he cited instances
" here many Of the teachers had more
than this number TO take care of. As a
matter of fact when the new school
houses are finished, it will be necessary
to employ more teachers for the city
schools, and the sooner the present sit
uation is relieved, the better satisfied
will every one be.

Money In a Dairy Herd.

To one who has known and watched
the growth and development of the dairy
and creamery business in the Yakima
valley for the last eight years, the
growth and expansion of the industry
is matter for pride and encouragement
to Yakima county, with it's dairy de-
velopment, its hocks and herds and its
varied industries, is destined to be one
of the wealthest counties in the State.
Where in 1894 there were 20 cows, there
are now 100 or more and the prices of all
dairying products were never better /;
and high as butter is, at this writing, re-
liable information at hand leads to the
belief that at no distant day it will go
still higher, an added benefit to the up
to-date dairyman.
To Mrs. Carmichael, owner of the
Yakima City creamery, belongs the hon.
or of writing the largest creamery checks
written for the month of October in the
county and for the benefit of our readers
we give few of the largest. The owner
of one dairy herd received the nice sum
of $293.61 for cream delivered during
October, for another owner of a dairy
herd Mrs. Carmichael wrote check for
$lS3.S0 for milk and cream delivered
during October, another owner of q
dairy herd received for two-thirds of the
month of October $lO7.64; and so on
down the list, owners of 10 and II cows
getting $45 to $50 for cream. This
creamery paying out for cream and milk
received in the month of October about
$1,000. Surely for an enterprise running
only about six weeks this is remark
able showing. The Yakima City cream
cry in the past found warm spot in the
hearts of its patrons and is still held
under the present ownership in high re-
gard with the people. No surer and
better income is offered to any rancher
in the state than the income from a
herd of good cows well handled, and it
is an income that comes every month in
the year. Mr.. Stevens near Ellensburg
reports his cows bringing each ST. for
10 months cash received at the creamery
with the calves and skim milk as an adj
dition. The dairy industry in Wisconsin
and Iowa and other states brought pros
perity and money in the bank to the
dairy farmers of those states, and the
dairy farmers here can ride on the top
wave of prosperity by proper care and
management of their dairy herds.
