into the hands Of my friend. Not

The Usual Way,

A dispatch to the Sun gives a
delightful picture Of legislative
activity in Kansas. The session Is
now four weeks uld, but the sole re-
suit is the employment of 300 men to
look after the legislators. SergeantS-
alarms and assistant superlntend-
ents of ventilation" clog the aisles,
thirty doorkeeperS look after four
doors. At the present rate the seS-
sion Of fifty days will cost the state
more than 100000. The conditions
may or may not be exaggerated. But
they illustrate most admirably ten
dency everywhere found when a state,
or the federal government, seeks to
carry on a business enterprise. There
is little or no difference between the
problem Of policing a capital and a
large office building. No business
man would, however, think Of run
ming his affairs in such a manner
Speedy bankruptcy would be the in
eyitable outcome If he did. The ten
dency toward the employment Of I'M
necessary employees for short periods
Of labor is found in every navy yard
and every branch Of federal service
Does anyone really believe that gov
eminent control OF the anthracite
mines would have any other result
than the production Of coal at greater
cost by a much larger number Of en-

Human Century Plants.

Hardly day passes without the an.
nouncement Of the death or birthday
of a man or woman who had reached
the ripe old age of 100 years. How do
they do it? 1t is a fair question.
Most of us growl and grumble at the
things that happen to us In life, but
are mighty careful to hang on to it as
long as possible. Every would
like to know how to live century.
There is no royal road to the century
post. A good constitution comes first
and knowledge of ones own self is
next. Most persons are as we'll &C.
quainted with Sanscrlt as they are
with the structure Of their own
bodies. They insult their intricate
and delicate organisms through igno
rance rather than design. If they
knew more about the actual effect of
such abuses, and how they lop off hu-
man lives, there isn't a doubt that
there would be more sane living.
Most of our centenaranS have lived
simply. Few of them have made a
study of living. Most of them were
poor and outside the pale Of hlgh-liv-
ing temptations. Alice O'Connor Of
Jersey City, celebrated her l03rd
birthday last week. She has children
II, 10, and 63. She says she never
had a pain nor an ache that she can
remember. Mrs. Linus Alderman, of
Brookdale, N. j., has whooping cough
at 81. Refugio Pontolongon died in
Mexico City, aged 1913 years. He lived
in the same house for l13. Uncle"

The Post has a weakness for correct

have noticed that such papers as the

ed the distinguished gentleman about
the correct spelling we concluded that
the weight OF authority was on our
side and attempted to use 1t the same

is a better provision for employing the
more competent teachers. This can
only be secured by consolidation. In
union there is strength. Our public
school system as it works in this
county is extravangant and unfruit-
full. The same amount0f taxes levied
upon larger districts and judiciously
applied would easily double the adj
vantages offered the average country
scholar, and there are but few who
would fail to profit thereby.

A Communication from the Capital.

(Received too late for last weeks
issue.
Topeka, Kan, Feb, 8, 1908.
Mr.. EDITOR,
Dear Sir:-Of course you know In a
general way how the Legislature runs
here, but thought few lines from
a republican on the ground might be
of interest.
The present Legislature more than
is usual seems to be run by a certain
clique. Unfortunately the object of
the clique is not to devise and enact
the best laws possible for the state,
(such thoughts never enter their
heads but 1t is tOpunlSh anyone that
does not bow to the dictates of the
leader, and to reward those that have
sold their votes to the clique. The
results are men like Ed Hoch are
turned down. Laws for the benefit OF
the state are ignored, and the useless
employees Of the state house block the
passage ways.
or course seven men 1.-THE number
employed to ventilatc the state
house are very necessary, for 1t is
rumored that a blizzard was seen to
hold It's nose while flying over the
capitol lately.
or course one great beneficial law
which Is Of great value to all the in
habitants has been passed, and that
is you can't eat live snakes unless you
are out in the back field alone.
But the further and more serious
results are, | meet men every day who
say, | am and have always been a
republican and would vote that ticket
10 day on national issues, but II the
machine is TO run state politics as 1t
Is being run, you can't count me as a
republican ON state issues.
| firmly believe from the talk | hear
that il the election was to morrow,
Roosevelt would carry the state by
10000 and Bailey would lose 1t by 10000.

mechanics up to superintendent of rail-
roads and managers of great manufactur-
establishments.
But perhaps the best indication of the
success of the School is the number and
class of institutions which, from time to
time, have drawn upon it for teachers.
For many years it has been furnishing
teachers to schools in various parts Of the
country, SO that there is hardly an indus
trial school or college in the South that has
not at one time or another counted one or
more of its graduates in its corps OF instruc-
tors.
Tn addition to the industrial training Of
fered to the boys, there are also for the
girls excellent courses in cooking, sewing,
art work, business branches, etc., which
fit them for lives of usefulness either as
bread winners or as homemakers.
In conclusion, it may be said that in
this great school, with its $50 bright, hap
by young people and its thousand or more
alumni, the brightest dreams of Samuel
Miller have been more than realized, and
that the Miller School is today great
blessing to Albemarle county, to Virginia
and to the world.
