natrouage. In other words, they do
not expect Simon to begin the great
political game until the deal has been
completed and he finds out what cards
he holds in his hands.
Harmony is the last thing that any
one expects. That the crowd now on
top wants peace is generally re-
marked, but the Simon people say
that their leader never quits fighting
when he is whipped. Though there
has been talk of new alignment and
a wiping out of the old factional dir
ferences. there is no mention of any
leader of the anti-Mitchell people ex-
cent Simon and no one expects a new
leader to appear. In fact none other
is wanted. for II Simon takes no part
in the primary fight next spring his
followers will do nothing more than
look after local affairs in which they

is generally recognized that the solu-
tlon OF the problem is Of political sig

political campaign, yet, so far as diff

are concerned. Marion county Repub-
licans do not see that II is material

one man or another be at the head Of

other man. Is therefore considered OF
secondary Importance.
The same old battles will be
fought over again." said a prominent
Republican. who Is Identified with
that wing Of the party which bears
the name OF Simon. There Is no use
crying peace peace when there is
no peace. A state chairman cannot
be chosen who can promote harmony
in the party, There are men who
could promote harmony but none Of
them will be placed at the head OF

ILLITERACY OF IMMIGRANTS.
Portuguese and Southern italians
Rank Lower Than People of
Other Nations

An estimate has been made by the
immigration bureau of the illiteracv
OF our Immigrants according to their
various nationalities, says Gunton's
Magazine. So much is heard of the
strictness and efficiency of German
schools that most persons would
thlnk the German immigrant would
rank first; that newcomers from the
fatherland would have the smallest
percentage of adults who can neither
read nor write. In fact, the German
Immigrants rank neither first. second
nor third. The Scotch and the Sean
clnaYians come out far ahead of all
others in educational qualifications
for intelligent citizenship. only one
per cent. of their number being in
the illiterate class. The English
rims and Morayians come next with
two per cent of their number litter
ate; the Irish and Welsh three per
cent; Germans, Swiss and French.
four per cent; japanese five Der
cent; Dutch six per cent. Then the
percentage of poorly educated immi-
grants takes a sudden leap upward.
The Italians from the north part of
their country and the Magyars have
II per cent. of illiterates; the He
orews is per cent; Russians q per
cent; Greeks % per cent; Slovaks
70 per cent; Roumanians % per
cent; Polish 80 per cent; Dalmatian.
Bosnian and Servian 81 per cent:
Croatian and slavonian 81 per cent:
Lithuanian 40 per cent; Syrian "A
per cent; Ruthenian As per cent:
Portuguese and Italians from south
Italy 40 per cent. 1t may be re-
marked that number Of our states
could not make any better showing
than is made by immigrants from
several nationalities mentioned.

LARGEST CIRCULAR SAW.
One in Pennsylvania Intended TO Cut
Pine Stumps Into Single
Bolts

The largest circular saw in the
world has just been turned out of a
factory in Williamsport. Pa, for use
in the lumber section of Elk county.
The saw is seven feet four inches in
diameter and wears teeth each one
of which is four inches long. The
saw weighs 300 pounds.
The purpose for which the NAM
moth saw was made is of interest,
says the Philadelphia North Amer
lean. 1t viii be used TO cut pine
stumps into single bolts. thus open
ing to the market a vast quantity of
material which until recently was
considered useless. In Elk county.
where 80 years ago the forests of
white pine were hewn down and turn
ed into lumber, there are thousands
of acres of great pine stumps as solid
as they were the day that the trees
were cut. any of these stumps stand
from five to eight feet above the
ground, so that in the swampy re-
gions of the Elk county plateaus
there are millions of feet of choice
single wood. The big saw will be
installed in a mill near Straits, and
its particular business viii be TO eat
into blocks of the ponderous pine
stumps that are to be fed to it. and
it is expected TO make one bite of the
biggest morsel offered.

NOTHING POETIC.
How the Fond Dream of Devoted
Wife Was Rudely Dis
PEELED.

Some men are never poetic; others
lose their poetic sense with the en-
croachment of years. At least that
is the opinion OF a matron now past
middle life, says the Chicago Chron-
icle. The only trouble with man is
that he loses the poetic side of his
nature as the years roll by" she re-
marked. Now, only yesterday my
husband took on the far-away look
l must confess it recalled the delight
full days when he put all his ia ents
into telling me how charming / was
and how all his life was wrapped up
in me, saying it as constantly and
with as many enchanting variations
as even a woman could desire For
a long time l watched him in silence.
Then at last, unable longer TO bear
the suspense, softly asked: What
are you thinking about. Cear?' I
was wondering he answered. If
shouldn't be quite safe in leaving OFF
my winter underwear New, wasn't
that poetic. Yet that same iconoc-
lastic man is brave enough to COM
plain at times that have changed"
