Sunshine wants to know
what is the matter with the bees as
they all take to the woods when
they swarm. The same condition
prevails here, and suppose we will
have TO ask the bees
Possibly 81 they could talk they
would tell as that there Is more
honey to be found in the timber
than on the prairie. and that there
are more bees ON the prairie for the
amount OF honey 10 be found than
Is good for them, and that to equal
lac matters they cmigratc
We have lost but one Of our own
swarms and would not have had
them leave had II not swnrmed on a
very windy day and settled or
clustered on some low bushes IN the
garden which let them down on the
ground where they could not be seen
They remained there until about .
p. m, where they left for the timber.
We have ten acres ot good white
clover pasture and our becs are con-
tented and stay with u.s.
our neighbore report several de-
sertions. one OF them losing every
colony that has swarmed so far
this year.
We are well pleased with our new
patent hives. They are the Lang
stroth pattern, and think that with
a little more experience and mauip-
ulntion, we can control the swarm
ing TO "A great extent ana get enough
more honey 10 pay for the cost ot
the new hives.

Washington Letter.

We hear that the Presidents
''quiet time" at Oyster Bay is but
duplicate of his every day life in
Washington. When he reached
his Long Island home last Saturday
he found the town illuminated, can
non roaring aud all the inhabitants
cheering. Sunday morning, IN an
open wagon. he took his wife and
five Of his children and drove to
church, where there was a crowd in
side and outside ofthe structure and
much hand-shaking. In the after
noon flock of relatives came to
pay a visit and stay to supper,
Monday. with the help of the little
Rooseyelts, the President celebrated
after the regulation fashion, wind
ing up with a fireworks party in
evening. During the afternoon be
assisted in extinguishing a small
prairie fire. Visitors have begun to
pour into Oyster Bay from all points
of the compass. Senators Fair
banks and Beveudge OF Indiana are
already on hand there, and Civil
/ Service Commissioner Cooley Is
sweating playing lawn tennis with
the Roosevelt boys. Ex-Mayor
Seth Low Of New York recently
dined with tie President, and those
who have kept tab on the after re-
suits OF such dinner doings have al
ready slated Mr. Low for the Italian
mission when the time is ripe. IL
is remembered how the Naval port
folio was rendered 10 Paul Morton
at White House dinner. Extra
rooms have been secured for the Ex-
eeulive offices at Oyster Bay; extra
telegraph wires have been put up /;
and extra clerk and operators have
been brought on from the White
House. Thus the 'quiet summer
vacation" promises to be the mosl
active and strenuous in history.

ldent and his politicians, are out oi

In view of the fact that they yol-

THt FEDERAL OFFICE HOLDER.

tlees anu We alC NSiNdlhil tiVt ih l
favor ofpreserbing an honest, faith
tul leader simply because he holds
a federal Office, for we realize that
it will take their votes and that OF
all their friends as well as all the
rest OF us to carry the state of MIS-
souri. We can't afford to aleinate
the good will of any considerable
portion of our votes, we will need
them all in our business. We can
only succeed by a united effort all
along the line. And yet we
think that when any man arro-
gantly assumes to carry ward,
city. township. county, district OF
state around in his vest pocket it
is time to drop Kim whether he
holdf an office or not. But if the
people of the party puts man in
the lead and he proves himself
good, safe and trustworthy leader
we see no reason why they should
not keep him in the lead and follow
his suggestion and with him reap
the rewards of party success. We
believe thoroughly in following our
file leaders and in keeping step with
the hosts that lead us to victory and
always acting in harmony with the
powers that be.
The cry against Federal office
holders as far as Missouri IS con-
cerned is bug-a-boo that has its
origin from Democratic sources and
is always started from our larger
cities. Its purpose is to create d.
vision in the rank and file of the
Republican party throughout the
state. so the Democratic ring -organ.
ization can continue in power.
1t has largely contributed to that
end and also to the interests of q
class OF city Republicans and to tn,
injury of country Republicans.
This ought to be plain as a pix,
staff. For thirty years the Repub
licans have been defeated in thi

preme Lodge, which Is the business de-
partment OF the knights OF Pythias, open =
ed its sessions to-day at the Masonic
Theatre. The attendance was large and
much interest was shown, 1t being re-
ported that many matters Of interest to
the knights would be taken up. Perhaps
the most important matter tho lodge will
be called upon to settle Is the relation
OF the endowment rank to the regular
lodge. Many enthusiastic knights feel
that the K OF p, Is a "fraternal. order.
rather than n beneficiary institution"
or an insurance organization and that all
Insurance features should be completely
eliminated from the organization proper.
After welcoming addresses and re-
sponses the general meeting OF the lodge
adjourned until night, and the accredited
delegates went into executive session to
hear the reports Of officers.
The spectacular side OF the 5 biennial

In the packing house strike were far

sent committee to Mayor Harrison and
informed him 1t would do no good to arr
range joint conference with the strike
leaders, The committee contended that
the packers had already won the strike,
and had no reason to meet the strikers.
The pnckers told the Mayor that he
should consider that they controlled Chi
cago's greatest industry, and had such
vast interests at stake that they could
not be dominated by their employees; that
they wanted to- BIO fair; that the prices
OF meat had not been raised and would
not be raised because OF the strike. They
could not accept an ybody's intervention.

Offices were useless. Is 8S "a

Two Centuries OF the American
presa.

t~ISSSs
IN addition to It's other distinctions TIE
year 1904 marks thea complexion OF two
centuries since the first American news
paper was started. That paper was the
Boston News Letter, whose publisher and
editor was the postmaster OF that town.
Although the News Letter consisted of Ia
sheet OF only seven inches BY ten and
half, printed on both sides, 1t was the only
paper that England's colonies IN the New
World had for over a decade and d half.
Philadelphia got the second paper ca
tablished In America, and New York got
the third.
All these were technically weekiies. but
often in the early days there were 5lnter-
ivals OF two or three weeks between their
successive appearances. The first daily
paper In the New World was the Ameri-
can Daily Advertiser, printed In lPhila-l
deiphia. After nearly a century had
elapsed since the first newspaper ap.
speared on this continent--or In $500
there were only fifteen dallles and 100
Eweeklles In the United States. II
The contrast between those days and.
to-day Is striking. There are "a, 900 news
papers and periodicals Of all sorts-week-
lies, semi weeklies, tri-weeklies months
lies, and terlies--published In the Uni
ted States In 1904 OF which about 2.400 arc
suallles ana lo,VOt iWceklles.lfA oIte "
two or three Of New Y ork' g daily papers
OF 1904 has larger circulation did
al! tho daily and weekly papers published
in the United States in 1904. &
Many newspapers are In the country to-
day which have scored more than a CEN
fury OF years. The Hartford Courant
dates back to 1864, the Philadelphia North
American made Its first appearance in
It'll. while the Baltimbre American was
established in ITS, the Pittsburg Gazette
i (the5 oldest newspaper west OF the 3Allegha-
nies) in 1855, the New York Gil ODE and
Commercial Advertiser In 1797, the New.
York Evening Post in j So1. the Charleston
News and Courier (the Oldest OF the
soutf,'s Snewspapers) 4 In lao3. and others
which have passed the U-yea r m ark es-
cape our memory at the moment. The
Oldest & illustrated paper in 81 the United
States is Leslies Weekly, Itch was Ges-
tablished in 1855. a weekly paper In Phll+-
adelphia, the Saturday & Evening u st
claims to date back from 172S.

has expanded into ono Bo6 the countrySs
