It is said that in m my of the hea.
then countries the Christian nations
are referred to as those that ''bring
beer and Bibles" Receatly when the
Japanese were blossoming out into q
newer civilization, all of the leading
religions were investigated and the
report was made that the Christian re-
ligion presented by far the best code
OF ethics, but that Christian people
seemed uniformly to fall victims to
peculiarly revolving immoralities, es-
pecfally drunkenness. The result was
the selection of Shintoism as the reli-
gion Of Japan.

President Roosevelt made q speech
before the national gathering of the
Catholic Total Abstinence Society held
recently. He recommended mostheart-
lily the total abstinence teaching of the
society and expressed himself as be
lieving In total abstinence as the cor.
rect rule of life. In the language oil
the poet, why don't you speak for
yourself, John?" His worst enemies
believe Roosevelt to: be . man of rug
ged honesty and that in most things,
at least, he practices what he breaches.

Prohibition Press Bulletin.
Issued by w. G. CALDERWOOD,
Minneapolis,


Minneapolis saloon keepers are
showing symptoms Of nervous pros
tratiou. No, the mayor is not enfor-
cling the law, nor the chief of police
giving any serious attention to his
duty, but half dozen business men
have been swearing out warrants
against the saloons for violating the
law.
There is a class of people who op-
pose prohibitory laws ostensibly be-
cause they cannot be enforced. There
are ten violations of regulatory laws
in license states for every. violation
OF prohibitory laws in prohibitory
states. And the violation of them
both, for the most part, ia not more
because of the viciousness of the ga
loon than the anarchy of perjured Off
Gals.

Better with the lid on in St Louis"
is the head line over an Associated
Press item showing the general i'm
provement of social and neral condi-
tions in St. Louis since the law has
been enforced under Governor Folk
Whoever would have suspected that
the humble homes would be happier
with the husband and father at home
and with the larder literally supplied
with the money that had previously
been wasted in the saloon? Whoever
could have guessed that, with tempta
ton removed from the slave to appe
tite, that brawls and disorders should
be reduced AID the police court be all
but out of q job on Monday morning?
What unexpected results sometimes
follow the results of unexpected

A Washington dispatch states that
the outbreaks against Secretary Will
son are inspired by the whiskey trust.
The cause of the billigerency of the
booze interests is found in the fact
that Secretary Wilson has been push
ing the pure food law vigorously,
which law, strangely enough, has to
do with the purity of the alcoholic
beverages which are in no wise foods.
The agricultural department chemist
some time ago, after examining al
most every brand of whiskey gave

SECRETARY HAY DEAD

Secretary Hay died at his sum-
mer home in New Hampshire at
Ia:a5, last Saturday morning, July
Ist.
Mr.. Hay has long been in the
public service and has made re
cord second to no man as secretary
of state. He was rated by the
world as one of the foremost di
plomats of the age. His demise is
a great national loss.
He has been in poor health for
some time past and had but recent
ly returned from trip abroad for
rest and recuperation. Though
considered seriously sick, his death
was not expected as he seemed to
be improving the last few days.
President Roosevelt feels deeply
the loss of Mr.. Hay. Besides be-
Ing a man of rare wisdom, Lis
clear understanding of the affairs OF
nations made his services invaluable
to the President and the country.

HOW ARE WE FIXED?

We mean for gas supply. The
city council for long time has
been "going to do something.
They see the gas territory tribute
to this town gradually growing less.
They see the gas in the territory
owned by the city constantly grow
ing less and still take no means to
secure other territory while it can
be had.
In few short years we will be al
the mercy of the pipe line, and
then we will pay well for the whistle
Does any one know any good rea
son why this council should not
proceed at once to buy some good
gas territory near the city while it
can be gota There are several
tracts that might be secured yet.
Some time ago the announce
ment was made that a committee
was looking the matter up. Are
they still looking it up1 We would
be glad to know that they have Sc
cured options on few hundred
acres of good gas land.

A Successful Surprise

Last Saturday night while Mrs
Zeb Rush was milking, she saw i
buggy or two drive into the yard
She supposed it to be some of the
neighbers on an errand and called tt
Zeb to see what was wanted. Zeb, the
guilty wretch, was into the plot and
he did not move fast enough to suit
Mrs. Rush, so she started to the
house and found the yard full OF
conveyances and was Immediately
surrounded by a throng of her neigh
bors and friends and Informed that
this being her 10th birthday they haii
concluded to come over and take
supper with her.
Mrs. Rush was completely surprised
and her surprise continued until 81
guests had arrived, representing %
families. Baskets and buckets wert
speedy unpacked and a table i'm
provised In the grove where Zeb had
secretly piped the gas and arranged
jet that lighted the whole scene
Soon the whole crowd sat down to a
meal that only Kansas farmers wives
know how to prepare. The evening
was spent In merry making and at
late hour the crowd left wishing Mrs
Rush many happy returns of her
natal day.

gang of workmen will drop down
on the site and the actual work be
begun. 1t has seemed a long time
to wait for active operations since
this plant was first talked, but there
is a great deal of preliminary work
necessary to get such an immense
enterprise as this thoroughly organ
lied. This will be, when completed i,
the largest cement plant in the
world and with the kindred enter
prises will give employment to many
hundred men.
Tne lola cement plant is big
concern and a great thing for lola
but this will be much larger and
employ many more men. g
Though several miles from the
city some kind of facilities will be
provided for transporting the men
back and forth and this city will gel
the full benefit.

MUTINY AND REBELLION

Not only the seamen and sailors
of the Russian empire but the army
seems to be demoralized by the
spirit of insubordinotion and re-.
bellion. When the crew of the
battle ship XMAS Potemkine mu-
timed, the whole Russian fleet of
the Black sea was sent against it
but the commander of the fleet soon
discovered that he could not trust
his crews in an engagement with
the rebel ship and so sailed away.
The Cossacks seem to be the only
branch of the army that can be
fully trusted. Mutinies are every
where both among the sailors and
the soldiers.
The Car, amidst the plots and
intrlgues of the anarchists and the
fawning treachery, knows not which
way to turn. There seems to be
no one to whom he can turn for
advise or counsel in full confidence
of meeting sincerity and truth.
Surely the Czarshlp is not very
enviable place at the present time,
If he were only a man of force Of
character and positive strength he
might say to his people we will
close the war on the most favorable
terms possible and then reorganize
our government on the lines q
equal justice to all, and he would
find himself at once the most popu
lor man in the empire and woulC
immediately have at his back the
whole patriotic citizenship of thai
vast empire. But in his weak and
vacilating policy no one can see
any brightness in the future fol
Russia. L is to be hoped that the
Emperor will yet get his ear close
to the ground and hear the guiding
signal which alone can lead him ou,
of his many perplexities and save
his country from dissolution ant
uin.

MORE ADVICE TO THE FAR
MER

The time for the dry season in
Kansas ls about here. This month
determines the corn crop. With a
couple more good rams this month;
properly distributed, and a reason
able amount of moisture during
August we will have record break
ing corn crop this year. 1t is to be
hoped that we will have the rains,
and the indications now are that
we will have a plenty. However,
should the rains cease to come. as
they frequently do, this should be a
busy month in the corn field. TIE
ground has been beaten together
by the heavy rains and the hot sun
of July will bake it and form a hard
crust. This crust must be broken
up If you wish best results. Corn
never gets too big to be cultivated
if it needs the cultivation, and all
corn needs cultivation in July if a
crust forms. Should these condi
tions arise, money and time will be
we'll spent if five tooth cultivators
are bought and run through it.
Don't cultivate deep. Break the
crust and pulverize it all you can.
Don't run too close to the hill.
Better leave an occasional weed
than cut the corn roots too close.
Should July prove to be dry, try
this plan on the biggest corn you
have. Leave few rows unculti
waited and notice the difference in
the fall. Don't leave many of them
or you will be sorry when husking
time comes.

THE RIGHTS OF THE WIFE

The RlGHTS Or IHE WIFE
Gradually but most certainly the
emancipation Of women is becoming
complete. The processes of justice
have been working in her behalf
ever since the human family eemrged
from barbarism and began to
grow in grace. With the exaltation
of the marriage relation as a con-
tract carrying with it certain fixed
obligations, privileges and immuni-
ties, the place of women in society
has had a firm and unalterable
basis. 81
Plato was ne centuries ahead
of his time .en no advocated the
teaching of women to read and
and write. Indeed, Christianity,
while it has softened and idealized
the position of woman, has alway
recognized her as the sufferer for
Ewes sins and 4 dependent IN the
household of cher lord and mas.
ter" In law there has alwas been
q curious intermlngling Of privileges
and disabilities thrown about women
with the dual the theory of protec
ton aud subjugation. Equality be
fore the law is an incomplete, al
though an inevitable, concomitant
of higher civilization.
1t remained for the Kansas City
court of appeals to make another
advance in progress for the benefit
of women. This court has held that
a husband cannot claim fixed dam
ages for the loss of his wlfe's ser
vices in case Of her injury or death,
provided at the time of her disa bill.
ity she was engaged in 4 wage-ea
ing occupatin. To this extent is
shattered the ancient master and
servanttenet when the wife occupied
the same place in the domestic
economy as the oxen and the cattle.
Then the wifs's value was measured
in her earning power and the hus
band was entitled to this value.
In the case just considered, the
wife was running a boarding house.
She was hurt by q street car and
the husband sued the street car COM
pany for the amount of wages paid
to extra servants because of his
wife's disability. The lower court
had allowed the claim. but the
court of appeals took the ground
that the woman was tho only one
entitled TO recover as she was the
breadwinner in a vocation of her
ewn which was not q part of he,
wifely duties. A wife owes her
husband the care of the househo old,
says the opinion, but when she
takes up1her husbands burden and
becomes a wage Garner she alone il
entitled to her earnings. Kansas

BANK FAILED

The First National bank of To
peka closed its doors, Monday
morning. c. J. Devlin the big
coal dealer and speculator gener
ally owned about two thirds of the
stock and seemed to have all the
money. He owes the bank mil
lion dollars,
Mr.. Delvin is chief owner in
about twenty-five big concerns and
had the management of the whole
complex business manly on his
shoulders. AS long as he kept well
and was able to look after his i'm
mense business, he kept things
moving but when he was prostrated
by sickness things did not even up
right.
The First National paid out
money all the time in protecting his
many enterprises, until it had no
more to pay out and had to quit.
Mr.. Devlins debts are numerous
and large. He owes several mil
lion dollars. Without the most
careful management and len
iency of his creditors, his vast es
tate will not pay off his indebted
ness.
He has large sums borrowed from
all the leading financial centers and
it will take the closest hnanc iering
to keep the business running in a
shape to pay out.
