VIRTUE OF ASPARAGUS.
Not Appreciated TO the Degree II
Should Be When Well Prepared
with Good Dressing.

Asparagus is not 80 generally grown
in the family garden as It's merits de-
serve. Properly grown and prepared
for the table, there are few people who
do net esteem 1t a delicacy. The
stalks should be grown in a rich bed,
and when about four or five inches out
of the ground, II their growth Is thrifty,
they should be cut-not deep enough to
bring UP the white, tough part, but use
only the green, tender lengths. Grown
thus it will not require any trimming
but all parts Of 1t will be very tender.
Throw into boiling water aud cook until
tender; salt when nearly done, and drain
off the water. For dressing, beat one
heaping teaspoonful Of -four with two
tablespoonful Of cream until smooth;
add one cupful of rich milk and lump
Of butter the size Of an egg; pour this
over the asparagus and let boil minute
but do not letit scorch, or, the asparagus
may be laid in hot dish and the hot
sauce poured over them, II desired.
When the season for the asparagus is
nearly over, and green peas are still
scarce, nice dish may be prepared by
boiling the two together In this case,
the asparagus should be cut up fine and
boiled about Is minutes before adding
the peas.-The Commoner.

NEEDLEWoRK NOTES.

The lowered chiffons, made simply
with wide tucks and high girdles of lib
erty satin, are girlish and charming.
With all hand-washed frocks, lingerie
petticoats are worn. These are so COW
cred with hand-work lace and ribbon
knots as to add to the beauty of gown.
Lingerie hats appear in different lines
this year, the frou-frou effect being set
into smaller and prettier lines of smart
ness. The lingerie or eyelet parasol is
the seasons creation, necessary ad-
junct to the daintiest toilette.
Embroidered eyelet blouses far sur
pass silk or satin ones in expense. An
entire gown Of eyelet is the desire Of
every summer girl who pays great at
tention to dainty toilette. Some mer-
cerlzed chambrays In eolors show en-
broidered effects in white, even ex-
plotting padded roses.
Black lace gowns should be made up
over black-and no bright color should
be added, although dull shaded and
flower gauze ribbon makes a good CIR
die with black lace or chiffon. Wheth-
er black or white, lace dress should
not be- too long, for trains are certain
ly not fashionable this year and when
one can follow so sensible fad 1t is
by all means a good plan to do so.
Smart little box coats and bolero
Jackets of linen are entirely covered
with all-over embroidery. The skirts
to DO worn with these are usually
short-plaited models, absolutely plain,
or with bands Of embroidery above
hem at the bottom. Washable belts
and hand-embroidered girdles are rap
idly taking the place of silk or satin
girdles. It is oDGy with very dressy
afternoon frocks silk belts are worn.
Instead of waning in popularity, the
stamped and stained linen pillow and
table covers have taken a new popu-
larity and added charm. The newest
ones and the most attractive ones that
were ever shown are OF course linen
in white, cream or unbleached tones
stamped and stained In Bulgarian pat
terms. They are worked in long and
short stitch and outline. A narrow,
thick braid put on with French knots
Is also used in tracing outlines. The
braid comes In various colors. Rich
mahogany brown and green are very
5Srominent In the pieces prepared for
this season. Pillow tops with linen
crash Innings matching the prevail
ing tone are quite inexpensive. Ia
BILE scarfs, just now. are liked better
than sQuares.-Chicago Daily News.

the laundry with the summer gown
and other accessories. For wear with
shirt waist suits there will be all. sorts
Of dainty creations to suit even the
most fastidious. One Of the prettiest
shown is made of cut-out embroidery
on jaunty shaped wire sailor founda-
ton. This frame Is covered with soft,
white MULE to disguise the fact that
frame is a necessity. Upon this the
circular embroidered crown Is lightly
tackled, and the embroidery brim ad-
justed, after which the folds of rib
bon with bow at one side are tackled
into position. Two 18-inch squares OF
cut-out embroidery will make the hat.
Fold the squares and make the corners
round; then cut circular piece from
the center for the crown; edge this
piece with embroidery, and edge the
brim with embroidery slightly shirred.
One piece is, Of course, tackled over the
other underneath between the top Of
the crown and the joining Of the brim.
These tub-hats are made Of embroid-

lend themselves to such uses, and are
variously trimmed with embroidery,
laces. ribbons, flowers, silks and vel
vets, which, II unwashable, may be re-
moved before the hat is sent to the

The Newest Colors.

Pervenche, a delicate lilac tinted
with blue, snuff brown and raspberry,
are some of the smart new shades of
the moment. 1t would appear that the
kitchen garden had been closely OBJ
served by the dyers of the day, for
gooseberry and Ivy, two good shades OF
green, are the favorite ones of the mo-
ment. There are still some exquisite

The Editor.

Milwaukee Journal.
What is the relation of the newspa-
per editor to his readers?
Certainly the relation is a vital one.
In these days of large calculations the
press becomes a tremendous enginry OF
civilization. And it's greatest power
resides in its ability to unite public SEN
timent into a moral force.
The editor, therefore, is the represen-
tative of the people. He is as much
their representative as if he had been
elected to the office of editor by the
votes of the people.
Any conception of his Office less than
this is too low.
And yet
There are newspaper editors-happily
they are rare-who will tell you (pri-
vately) that a newspaper has as much
right, morally, to champion the cause
of some special and selfish interest for
pay as a lawyer has to plead the cause
of his client for fee.
The editor who makes such claim
has no righteous conception of his rela-
ton to his constituency.
Newspapers are purveyors Of news
for a price. But they are infinitely
more than that. And their power is
not of themselves. They get it from
the people. Without the people they
would have no power. Therefore, they
owe duty to the people.
The editor of great modern news
paper is bound by every consideration
of duty to stand for the best interests
of the people. He must print the truth
for their enlightenment. He must pro-
tect them from abuses and usurpations
of power. He must make his appeal to
the best that is in the people and be
true to the best that is in himself.
His is high calling-no less sacred
than that of the pulpit.
If for bride he betrays the public
that trusts him he is the meanest of all
traitors.
He is the peoples tribune. If he is
treacherous to the people he makes
himself a prostitute. And he becomes
the most dangerous man in the COM
munity.

WHEN DID 1T GET sO9

The Democrats down in Richmond
have been accused Of cheating each
other at their recent primary. Some
complaints were made and an investiga-
ton was ordered before grand jury of
that city. Mr.. w. L. Royal, who has
become very great enemy to elections
frauds since the supposed necessity for
cheating Republicans has ceased to ex-
ist, has been the chief mover in the in
vestigation.
Judge Witt, the presiding judge at
the investigation, in the course of his
charge to the grand jury said: "The
purity of the ballot is the safety of the
State" Naturally, Republicans will
ask, when did this important truth force
itself upon the Democratic judiciary, as
well as upon Mr.. Royal and so many
other Virginia Democrats who are now
so eager for honest elections? Accord
ing to Mr.. Royals own testimony it
was the rule for twenty years prior to
the proclamation of the new constitu-
ton for the Virginia Democrats to pad
registration books, stuff ballot boxes
and falsify returns to defeat the Re-
publicans. Even in Richmond, the
Capital City of the State, fair elections
were unknown for many years. But
then Republicans were the sufferers
and no Investigations were ordered by
the judiciary or asked for by any hon
estly inclined Democratic citizen. The
impurity of the ballot was then claimed
to be the safety of the State. That
meant that the safety and success of
the Democratic party in Virginia de-
pended upon dishonest ballot. Upon
this idea a training school for fraud
was opened, from which teachers were
sent out to instruct registrars and cleo
lions officers how they were to do their
work in the interest of Democratic
candidates. The instructions then
given are still bearing fruit.
All good citizens will agree with Judge
Witt in his declared truth that: 'The
purity of the ballot is the safety of the
State" We will never have a pure
ballot in Virginia until the election ma
chinery is taken from the hands of the
men who have been running it for
nearly twenty-five years.

ALTERNATING,

The Petersburg-Index Appeal re-
marks that Junge Crump should "fer-
vently pray to be delivered from some
of his over jealous friends.
That may possibly be true. We are
decidedly inclined to believe that it is
in view of the character of defense
they have made of his admitted ''indis-
erection" in taking stock in the Virginia
Corporation Company, Inc. But there
are other things that Judge Crump
might judiciously include in his prayer
for deliverance-pubEc sentiment and
the next General Assembly.
Conceding all that Judge Crump's
friends have said of his high character,
the fact remains that we have good
grounds for the belief that the rock
bottom facts, the really essential fea-
lures of the whole affair are not known
to the public. But even in view of
what is known and admitted we do not
see how a legislative investigation of
the whole affair can be avoided.
The fact is that the incident has in a
large measure destroyed public conf
dence in the commission, and to that
extent has impaired its usefulness to
the public. That confidence can be re-
stored only by thorough investigation
or a change of personnel.-Norfolk
Virginian-Pilot.
Perhaps our Norfolk contemporary is
wise in suggesting that Judge Crump
should be praying for deliverance from
the next General Assembly; but the
wisdom of such a prayer may depend
on circumstances. If the rock bottom
facts in the scandal connected with
the Corporation Commission have not
been reached and the whole affair
should be made known to the pub
lie, Judge Crump could pray for
no more lenient tribunal Of investiga-
ton than a Democratic General As
sembly. Investigations heretofore
made by Democratic Legislatures have
been so conducted as to conceal the
rock bottom facts. That is what
prominent Democrats declare, and the
record seems to bear them out in their
claim. If the people want to know the
facts about the Corporation Commits
sion and the Education Department
scandals, they had better select some
other body to try it than a Democratic
General Assembly. If coat of white
wash is necessary Democratic Legis-
lature can be relied upon to apply it.

Saving Her Face.
Washington Times.

Washington Times.
Russia's bureau Of publicity is work
ing overtime in preparation for the
meeting of the peace ENJOYS. With
the utmost abondon of frankness her
most distinguished statesmen are TAX
ing the newspapers into their conf
dence and exposing the ihmost recesses
of their official consciences.
Russia seems perturbed with regard
to Japan's demands. She is firmly re-
solved never to pay an indemnity, not
to part with an acre Of Russian soil, in
fact, she has determined to preserve in
violate her prestige, her amour propre,
her saivoire faire, and all that sort OF
thing. In plain words, she is trying
very hard to save her face-and it is
such large face.
Some time ago the world was serious
ly informed that Russia is too poor to
pay a large indemnity, etc., ETC., ETC.;
now we are assured by M. Witte him
self that all parties will combine to
continue the war al'outrance if Japan
will not be good. The island of Sakha-
lin was suggested formerly as substi-
tute for an indemnity; now that Japan
has the island Russia threatens to re-
take it unless the japanese behave
properly in the peace congress. Rus
STA went into the war as the doughty
champion of western civilization, phi
lanthropic assimilation, and moral ex-
pansion; now she calls for help in these
inspired" words Of the NOvOe Vre-
mya:
even in England and America the
voices of moral instigators can be
heard in favor of indirect interference
of the powers to moderate Japan's de-
mands. Our plenipotetiaries must re-
member that they must defend the in
terests not only Of Russia, but also of
the other Caucasian powers, and they
will find moral support in Berlin, Paris,
Washington, and, perhaps, even in
London. Our army in the field is much
stronger than it was fifteen months
ago."
