it is easy with mechanical toys to de.

TURNER TOLD you so.

Says Republicans Never Intended to Keep
Their Promises.
In an interview At Spokane lately
ex-senator Turner, leader Of the State
Democracy, said:
"There is little necessity for COM
menting on the record of the Repub-
lican Legislature. That record speaks
for itself. It is afulfillment Of the
Democratic prophecy made in the
last campaign, namely. that the Re.
publican party never had the slight
est intention Of keeping its promise.
"A more solemn compact with the
people was never made than the one
contained in the last Republican State
platform, which pledged the party to
the creation OF Railroad Commission.
Notwithstanding the earnest exorta-
ton OF Governor Mcbride that the
promises therein be kept and his
solemn warning that to break them
would be to dishonor the Republican
party, the Republican majority in the
Legislature scorned the platform,
broke their pledges and Aouted the
Governor. The Legislature has dem.
onstrated the utter incapaci,y of the
Republican party to govern the State.
1t has demonstrated that the Repub.
lican leaders have no regard for party
pledges. In my judgment the result
will be political revolution in this
State, now. that the people are tired of
broken faith and of the control OF
politics and legislation by powerful
corporations"

LEMON JUICE AND TYPHOID.
New York Physician Says Many Medical Men
Have Used Il In Treatment.

DR.. Erbest G. Lederle, President of
the Health Department of New York,
referring to the discovery said to have
been made recently in England that
lemon juice would kill typhoid germs
in water and to have been proved by
experiments in Chicago, says he knows
these experiments have been tried
often before, and that many physicians
treat their typhoid patients with
lemon juice.
DIR. w. II. Billings, a bacteriologist
of the department, said:
"I have not made any experiments Is
myself, but l am sure that lemon
juice in water will kill germs, if
enough is used. Orange juice will do
the same thing, and in fact we have
been feeding patients that right
along. There is nothing new in the
discovery of lemon juice. It takes
more orange juice than lemon juice
because the former has not so much
citric acid in it, and acts as a power
full neutralizer. There is no doubt
that acid will destroy typhoid germs.

An Old Silverware Plant Closed.
New York Press

A big surprise was sprung on the
thousands OF employees of the silver
plated ware manufacturing company
of G. Rogers & Brothers. OF Meriden,
Conn.,, Saturday, when, upon receiv-
ing their pay envelopes they found in
closed notice Of their dismissal. The
sweeping edict included every employe
of the big factory, from the former
President. Cephas Rogers. down to the
least-paid person on the roll.
Hundreds of families are without
source of income, and much suffering
may result. The notices were issued
by the International Silver Company
that recently absorbed the Rogers
Company. The factory will be closed
until such time as the present owners
SEE fit to reopen.
1t is said another line of goods en-
tirely different from those formerly
manufactured at the plant will be
turned out there.

two have reached the SOS. They have
worked for years in this department,
and are wonderfully expert in their
duties. Their salaries overlap the 800
per month mark. 1t is doubtful If
any man could be found to do the
work at any salary.
In cases where exactitude to the
verge of Thickness is required, women
are better clerks than men. The tab
ulating machines, requiring unending
patience and the most skillful exact
ness Of touch, are all run by women.

AMERICAN, THE IDEAL
OUR GIRLS LEAD IN BEAUTY,
STRENGTH AND GRACE.

rs IarOline T. wallace. VINO mas mad Much
Opportunity for Forming a Correct Juds-
ment Says. That the Young Wome Of This
Country Excel all Others Mentally and Phys
ically.
"The American girl is the most
beautiful on earth. Her fullness Of
health and vigor and spirit command
the admiration of both sexes all over
the world, while Indian girls are
shriveled, wrinkeled, and ready to die
at 1S."
In these words Mrs. Caroline P.
Wallace, who has made study of the
women of every quarter of the globe,
crowned the American girl as queen
OF her kind, and pleaded for help in
the effort being made to restore child
hood to the Indian children who are
forced into wifehood at ages at which
the American girl is playing with her
china doll.
Mrs. Wallace was speaking at
meeting OF the Chicago section Of the
Indo.American Woman's Restoration
League, lately held at the Palmer
House.
"These splendid girls are the
mothers of the nation, and their in
fuence on affairs is immeasurable,"
continued the speaker. "The type of
the American girls beauty is the re-
suit of her wonderful endowments.
In other countries as women advance
in years they lose their good looks. In
America handsome old age is a com.
mon sight. This is the result OF their
life and their heredity.
"Now think of the beautiful Ameri-
can girl having been wife for ten
years at Is, just as she is on the
threshold OF young womanhood. Just
think OF this and you will have a pic
ture of the Indian woman at 18. But
many of the Indian child wives do not
live to be even Is. Many more are
wrinkled old grandmothers at 20. At
25 those who have survived their long
years of agonized wiiehood have not
even remnant of beauty or symmetry
of figure left.
CAT Is the Indian is deformed
physical wreck. They speak OF the
evils of child labor here in Chicago,
but the children OF India, the little
wives and widows, labor as no child in
America, or even in the cotton mills
of the south, was ever made to work.
Little girls of 10. IL and IL years OF
age are made TO carry rough hewn
stones in sacks strapped to their weak
backs to where walls are being built;
sometimes they carry these burdens
for half mile.
"The Indian widow is q social out
cast. She is blamed for the death
of her husband. She is everybody's
slave. To marry her would be to lose
your caste. They think mothers-in-
law are bad enough over here, but in
India the child wife is the servant,
the slave of the mother.in.law. The
Indian wife is her husbands slave |;
the American wife 10 her husbands
peer in most things, his superior in
other things. The Indian husband is
worshiped by his wife as her god; the
American wife is often called divine
by her devoted husband"

WOMEN IN FEDERAL SERVICE.

About one-third OF all the employees
in the government departments at
Washington are women. Their salar.
les range from $500 to over $500 per
annum. Last year, Of the 3,083 ap-
plicants for government positions, g.
476 passed the examination, and AL
were appointed. The most popular
for women is that for
stenographers and typewriters. The
men applicants for these positions
predominate; yet the average passing
was larger on the women's side. Many
Of the lower officials refuse to have
mate stenographers in their Offices.
Although the records show that the
women applicants have much greater
ability than the men, yet men are in
the majority appointed. A thousand
reasons are urged Why men should
have the preference. although hardly
one woman in fifty but is either the
sole support Of family or one OF it's
main props.
The government employee works
just As hard as her sister outside, and,
once having obtained q position, she
has to work to keep it. A young wo.
man was last year made chief of one
of the divisions in the Postoffice De.
partment because she knew more
about the work of that particular
division than any other employee.
Miss Thora Stejneger, a Norwegian
woman, has charge of the classifica
ton of all the animals received by the
Smithsonian Institute, and she ex-
amines and labels them with unerring

The way of obtaining government

civil service commission, is open to all.

TWENTY YEARS AGO."
Death Of the Man Who Became Famous by
Writing One Poem.

WfthS OhS TOSHi.
The man who wrote I've Wandered
to the Village, Tom," or "Twenty
Years Ago." died last week at his
home in Clinton, Iowa. A. ]. Gault
was the author of but one poem that
has lived. But, said the lioness in
answer to the sneer because of her
lack of fecundity, "Only one, but a
lion."
There is very pretty story about
the writing OF the poem. Years ago
Gault had brother who was wayward.
His whereabouts were unknown. He
had neglected to answer his brothers
letters. Finally, as last resort, the
poem was written as letter. To
make an orthodox ending to the Incl
dent one would need to tell of the
restoration of the prodigal, but this
contamination so devoutly to be
wished, is not of record. But those
who have loved the simple poem be-
cause of the memories it brings will be
pleased to know there was a real Tom
and that the "bell" which swung to
and fro. the "desk" defaced by the
jack. and the brook" all had a
local habitation.
Have you gone back to the village
where you were born and reared, after
q long wandering away from the famil-
lar places? Have you "sat beneath
the tree" upon which a scar shows
where "her" initials and yours were
cut together? Have you watched an
other generation playing on the village
-" green" where you played with yonr
fellows "just twenty years ago?"
Then you know all the feeling, that
throbs in the lines of Gault's poem.
Then has come back to you "the ten
der grace OF a day that is dead"
Peace to the ashes of the man who
wrote one poem of the heart. He was
not great poet. But he filled Tol-
stoi's definition of art. He had a
message. That message, written ou,
of blended emotions. intended as a
telegram to brothers heart, went to
the heart universal. It touched all
the poets brother's-all who have
played and studied and loved and lost
and won-all who hold the memories
of halcyon childhood. It is a melan.
choly yet sweet message and not en-
tirely sad. Laughter still echoes down
the corridors OF recollection. Smiles
chase the sadness away. Humor,
which is next door to tears, peeps from
behind the blinds OF twenty years ago

of Louisiana, though the creole popu.
lation of that State is but a small frac.
tion OF its inhabitants and limited to
the Southern counties.
Some Of the State names date back
to times remote and recall conditions
which have ceased to exist. Thus, the
inhabitants of Michigan are called
Wolverines, of Maine Foxes, and o
