IT seems little curious to see the
Dardenele Post-Dispatch advocating
the round-bale press rs the coming
method of handling cotton. Two years
ago there was nothing too bad it could
not say about the round-bale and especi-
ally about Senator Jones connection
with the enterprise. y change seems to
have come over the spirit of its dreams,
Is possible that the fact that the princi-
pal business men Of Dardenelle have
become Interested in the round-0ale
press has anything to do with the P.-D 3
chance Of base2-Russellville Record.

Let the Negro Alone

From the Washington Post
Let him alone, Stop treating him as
if he were phenomenon To be sure he
has his leaders, who are for the most
part fools, when they are not selfish cal
culators upon his credulity and igno-
rance. But have not the low class Ital-
ians their padrones, and the inferior or
der of laborers their betrayers and false
prophets? If they choose to segregate
themselves and to set up as peculiar
and isolated element Of the population
are there not whites of different nation
alities who commit the same suicidal
folly2 The typical negro is not wise
but he is good-humored, faithful and
well-meaning At least, he Is never a
conspirator, an anarchist or an assassin
He has his quarrels, but they are private
ones. He has his passions, for he is hu-
man. But the most fatal burden under
which he staggers is that of bad advice
and evil example. If he could be freed
! from the incendiary leader and the
dreaming evangelist by a single stroke
of Providence, there would be little diff.
ference, in respect of present and future
possibilities, between him and his white
| equal.

GIANTS MADE TO ORDER
Chicago "U'' Professor Discovers a
New Food Which Will
Produce En-.

Chicago, Sept. 16.-The age Of the race
Of giants is about to be ushered In again.
Henceforth there will be no pigmies, for
q wonderful food substance has been dis
covered that makes men and animals
grow fast and large. The myths that
have come down from ancient days tell
of races Of giants which inhabited the
earth or dwelt in the islands Of the sea.
History as constructed from old records
and folklore is filed with stories Of Hec-
tors and Hercules and Goliaths and
Simpsons and Cyclops. Science has
proved that the animals Of the earth were
once far larger than at present. and in
museums may be seen the skeletons Of
mammoths and mastodons that lived on
the prehistoric earth and of the awful
leviathans which dweltE in the seas
thereof.
The giant men and the monstrous AMI
mails may all return again as the result
Of the newly discovered food substance
which, stimulates growth SO rapidly. The
new food is lecithin. It's wonderful quail

perimented with white rats and by feed

and this under conditions Of atmosphere
and general surroundings thatN were un-
favorable.

The president then sent word to the
club that he could not attend il such was
the intention. He did not say, nor did
he mean to insinuate, that Sir Thomas
presence was the stumbling block, but
merely that he did not care to be present
at a formal dinner. This, however, was
distorted until 1t was made to appear as
a slight to the Irish baronet.
Mr.. Roosevelt, unwilling to be discour-
teous, then instructed his secretary to
send the following note to officers Of the
club, and the note was sent last night:
My Dear Mr.. Hoyt: The president directs me
to say that 1t will be particular pleasure to
him If Sir Thomas Upton can come to the Sea-
wanhaka dinner. As you will recall, all that
the president said when the invitation was ex-
tended to him was that he did not feel like ac-
cepting any Invitations to formal functions;
that, If it was simply to be neighborhood din
ner among his own friends in the Seawanhaka
club he would gladly come. The president has
a particularly high record for Sir Thomas Lip
ton and q high appreciation Of the manly and
sportsmanlike; spirit he has shown turnout the
yacht contests The president earnestly desires
that Sir Thomas be present at the dinner.
Very truly yours,

THE HoMEsTEADER,s FAMILY
1t Need Not Necessarily Accompany
Him to tho
Claim.

From The Journal Bureau, Room 4s, Post Build
ing, Washington.
Washington, Sept. 15.-Law officers Of
the interior department whom asked
about the practice In regard to residence
on their claims by married homesteaders,
say that there is no hard and fast rule
requiring that a married man who makes
a homestead entry must take his family
on his claim. The inquiry was made be-
cause Of q recent report in Koochiching
paper that two claims that had been COM
muted were overthrown on this ground.
One official high in the legal division said:
while the law contemplates that
homesteader shall establish home on his
claim there is no absolute rule or interpre-
tation which requires a married man to
take his family with him when he estab-
fishes such home. The fact that he does
not take his wife and children, il he has
any, may be explained in several ways,
according to the individual cases. For in
stance, the wife may be in poor health and
not able to stand the rigors Of breaking
new land and other hardships incident to
making home on new land. One child
may be Ill, causing a separation during
the residence period on the claim by the
father. The law has always been con-
strued literally In this respect and, I'M
less there are other reasons for rejecting
