OATH OF UNIONS
 AGAINST CHURCH
DIR. BART SAYS CATHOLICS CAN NOT CONSISTENTLY TAKE OR KEEP THE OATH OF THE TYPO GRAPHICAL UNION.

Marshall, Mich. August 3o.-The Rev. Dr. P. A. Baart, rector of St. Mary's church of this city, today. in sermon on education, said that no Catholic could consistently take or keep the oath Of some labor unions, and he mentioned particularly the Typographical Union. part of whose oath he quotes as follows:
 q hereby solemnly and sincerely swear that my fidelity to the Typographical Union and my duty to the members there of shall in no sense be interfered with by any allegiance that l may now or hereafter owe to any other organization, social political or religious"
 Father Baart said this oath places union before the church and before the state and distinctly impeached the loyalty and Catholicity of those who take such an oath. Possibly, the leaders may not have realized the full force of the words used in their oath, he said. but whether they did or not, every patriotic citizen and every sincere, consistent Catholic should demand that such oath be modified and that the objectionable clause be cut out.

 My plan is the independence of Ala bania under Italian protection, with an understanding with Greece, while con- temporaneously Saraffof would appeal to Europe for Macedonian independence, re- nouncing all idea of Austro-R Russian in- tervention.

Details Of Peppers Death.

Further details of the accidental
death of A. N. Peppers. the engine
foreman who was killed in the Santa

inquest held over the remains, says
the San Bernardino Sun. An automat.

was being switched had refused to
work, and Peppers had dartei in be-

pulling the coupling pin by hand. AS

M ne was knocked to the ground
and under the wheels by the moving
train. As he fell he uttered a cry
for help, and Switchman Costler i'm

stop. Peppers was then taken to the
depot, where DR.. Baylis was summon.
ed to attend him. The injured man
died a few minutes later, the result Of
internal injuries from a terrible blow

in railroad circles which provides that
in all cases Of coupling or uncoupling
switchmen shall first have the cars
brought to a s%tandstill. As Peppers
disregarded this rule, he alone was
responsible for the fatality. The

SOL wEEuIL CAMP afcN.

The campaign against the cotton boil
weevil is more vital to Texas just now
than any political military campaign
in its history. The Post has improved
every opportunity to call attention to
this calamity to tile States chief staple
and has published everything it could
obtain in the way ofintelligent sugges-
ton for combating the evil.
As far as experiments and experience
have demonstrated, there is no sure
remedy OF safe preventive. The insect
has defed all efforts at determination
and its ravages are spreading to all cot
ton counties of the State. Indeed, it
is apparently only matter of time
when it will extend across the Aissis-
sippi and infect the entire cotton belt.
From all The Post can gather there
is nothing to do but to fight continue
ously from fall to spring and spring to
fall with a reasonable expectation of
reducing the damage to the minimum,
until such time as the entomologists
may discover a remedy or until the in
sect may pass the cycle of its activity.
Prof. Mally, the former entomologist,
and Prof. Sanderson, his successor, to-
gether with experts of the Federal de-
partment of agriculture, can recon-
mend nothing better than perpetual
warfare by blowing in the fall, burning
in the winter, spraying and plucking
in the spring and culture in the sum
mer. But these methods to be effec-
tual must be based upon a knowledge
of the insects habits, growth and char
acteristics which can be learned only
by reading and observation. These
recommendations are not mere scien-
tific theories. They are reinforced by
demonstration in the field and by the
experience Of intelligent farmers
throughout the infected area.
A meeting has been called at Dallas
by the Commercial club Of that city fol
January II to discuss the boil weevil
in all its bearings, and it is to be hoped
that representative men of all eallings
will lend the announcements of their
presence, for the cotton industry
touches directly or indirectly every
material interest.
Texas cannot abandon cotton 1t is
the source of her chief wealth and must
not be surrendered to an insect. Els
pecially is South Texas, and peculiarly
this city, concerned in this matter, and
should be foremost in the campaign Of
resistance. = Houston Post.

The time was when the prosperity OF
a farmer was judged by the number OF
acres he cultivated-or made pretense
of cultiyating. When this was true
land was the cheapest sort of property.
In these day it is otherwise. Many
of our poorest farmers have more land
than they can properly handle, and
many of our best aud most successful
farmers cultivate small farms, fertilized
with brains as well as stable composts.
A large farm well cultivated and well
stocked is better than small one treat
ed the same way. But the resources
of soil, industry and intelligence are
almost inexhaustible, so that all so
acre farm requires is proper applica-
tion of these factors and success is as
sured.
