The language used is exceedingly
severe. but before Tillman should be
acquitted of murder the jury should
know whether the charges made in
language are true If Tillman is the
character Gonzales paints him, the
editor was :ally warranted in warning
the people against him. In fact. it
was his duty to do so, as Tillman
needed to be shown up in his true col

murder to his various accomplish

WHYNEc The Fort Smith Eleva-
OF THE tor. in casting about for
THUSNESo.a reason for the action OF
the Cotton Buyers asso-
citation in boycotting the round bale
cotton people, finds one. which it ex-
presses in the following:
1.-THE cotton dealers of the state met
at Little Rock last week and perfected
an organization, excluding round-bale
people from, membership. The assocl-
alton will fight the round-bale people,
and its officers lave no hesltancy IN
announcing that fact claiming it to be
a monopoly bent upon securing entire
control Of the tatton market. 1t is
lnt natural that the buyers and hand
lers of cotton should object to any
thing that interferes with their opera
tions and it will be noticed that the
reasons they give for their opposition
are the same always advanced under
similar circumstances. 1t is not their
welfare. they contend that is endan-
gere by the round bale, but that OF
the cotton grower, Their real reason
for antagonism to the round bale is
that it leaves them entirely in the cold.
It brings the farmer and the spinner
almost together and leaves in the
poc',et of the farmer the profit which,
under the plantation or fat-bale sys-
tenn would go to the buyer and COM
press man."

bundle of smoked herring. In a

shriveled fish out of this bundle,
held a lighted match to its head,
and it began to burn with a clear
flame like a candle. He used it
as a candle, indeed, in leading his
visitor in the dusk through his
house, exhibiting his bibelots and
treasures.
"But this tish-this fish that
burns like a candle-what is it,
anyway ?" the stranger asked.

Knitting For the Nerves.

A curious story of the late Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson is related by
Mr.. David Graham Phillips.
Mr.. Phillips tells how Stevenson
was found at his hotel, in New
York, one day sitting up in bed,
swiftly and assiduously knitting.
Stevenson at the time of the story
told by Mr.. Phillips was in the hab-
it of smoking a great number of
cigarettes daily. Frequently, in
deed, he smoked as many as a hun
dred, and then would come times
when he would try to cut down the
amount. 1t was at one of these
times of cutting down that the Incl
dent mentioned took place.
AS his visitor entered the room
Stevenson looked up, and a bright
smile lightened his gaunt face. But
he did not cease from his knitting.
81 must do something in between
cigarettes" he said. "It keeps my
nerves quiet" And he added, with
another smile, at would surprise

A MAP OF WOOD.

A map Of Oklahoma and Indian
Territory, showing all political
divisions and the principal water
courses, made entirely in mar
quetry of forty-three kinds of the
various woods indigenous to the
two Territories, is a standing at.
traction on the floor of the Lower
House of the Oklahoma Legisla-
ture. 1t is handiwork of S. o.
Moreland, of Shawnee, a stone
mason with no technical knowl-
edge of cabinet work, and in the
making occupied the spare time
of the past nine months. In size
it is about three by four feet
The border, representing the
white paper upon which maps are
printed, is cottonwood, the most
widely and evenly distributed of
Western trees. 1t is framed in
black walnut, with heavily turned
pilasters at the end, and is under
glass. The various bits of wood
composing it are sawed to show
the grain to the best advantage,
highly polished and shaped to
conform exactly to the territorial
subdivisions shown on the latest
published maps. The map will
be given a prominent place in the
Oklahoma exhibit at the Louisi-
ana Purchase Exposition.
The woods used for the several
counties and reservations are {:
Beaver, red cedar; Woodward,
willow; Wood, red elm; Grant,

told how the insects were usually

fly up and are caught in the can

providing that the State pay half
instead of all the bounty. This
was lost, and then the bill was put

6RASSHoPPERS IN UTAH.

One cent pound will be paid
for grass-hoppers if the Senate
concurs in the House amendment
TO Senator c. p. Larsen's Grass
hopper bill, and if the Governor
gives his approval. The House,
after considerable debate, passed
the bill with one amendment, re.
ducing the bounty from l. to /
cent a pound, which makes the
rate GO cents a bushel. The de-
bate brought out considerable in
formation about grasshoppers,
the lairs, haunts, ravages and
modes of capture. No sooner had
the bill come up when Child of
Weber county, rose to oppose it.
"It's time TO draw the line on this
giving of bounties," he said. "We
have grasshoppers in our county
but we don't ask the State TO come
to our rescue. | believe we ough'
to leave this to the county com
missioners. If this thing goe,
on Wen have grasshopper hatch

told of the experience in Utal
county, where 80 cents a bushe
of sixty pounds was paid, the to
tai amount expended last seasol
being $4,000. Austin moved al
amendment cutting the bount,
rate from II to / cent pound
Child broughtout the information
that eight or ten bushels of hoI
pers could be caught in a day, an,
suggested that at this rate
would be more profitable to rails

IN A DYNAMITE FACTORY.

Dynamite factories are in full
swing near Dover and Farming
dale, N. j. and the men who work
in them seem well content with
their dangerous occupation
They wear rubber soled shoes,
and their tools are covered with
rubber or are made Of wood, so
as to avoid the possibility of fric-
tion and consequent accident.
AS further safeguard the va.
rious utensils in which the deadly
explosive is mixed or manipula.
ted are lined with lead, and mis-.
hap is of rare occurrence. New
ertheless, these men know that
the fabrication of dynamite con.
stitutes a work of danger, and
many of them develop "nerves'
when they are new at the bust
ness. This trouble wears of
quickly, or, as in some instances
not at all, and the victim is seized
with nervous chills and tremors
whenever a loud noise is heard in
the factory. Finally he is obliged
to give up his position and seek
work of a more congenial nature
The men are paid from 50 tc
1925 per day, and the labor is not
papticularly heavy, nor are the
hours as long as those of other
workmen. No smoking is allow
ed from the moment they entei
the factory until they leave, ant
only men of quiet, steady habit,
are engaged. A spirit of goot
comradeship seems TO exist bs
tween the workers, and when op

Our Dividing Lines.

The subdivisions of the states Of
the Union used by the census bu-
reau may well supersede the older
dividing lines now in use, which
place Ohio in the middle west and
Minnesota in the northwest. For
census purposes the states are di-
vided primarily into Atlantic, CEN
tral and western, the Atlantic being
separated into north and south at
Mason and Dixon's line. The north
central states cover the irregular
triangle formed by Ohio, Kansas
and North Dakota, while the south
central includes those states from
Kentucky to Texas. The western
division includes all the states west
of Colorado's eastern boundary.
