WISE ACTION.

The local board of health is to be
commended for it's very wise seton in
raising the quarantine. AS the Gra-
phic contended the state quarantine
j.. strong enough to afford ample pro-
lection to the cities of the state, and il
is a pleasure to note that the board
has taken the same view of the mat
ter The local quarantine was unnec-
essarily working great hardship on
the business interests of the city. 1t
practically excluded people from the
nearby Arkansas points from coming
to the city, because they would not
come here when they were subjected
to so great annoyance and an unnec-
essary expense.
AS the Graphic has said heretofore,
it believes that the board acted in that
manner which it believed to be for the
better interests of the city, but their
action resulted in a bottling up Of the
city which the board did not contem-
plate, and that action was very wisely
Iescinded.

GOVERNOR DAVIS AND BOCDLE3s

In his speech at Cross Roads Bob
PAGERS candidate for governor, made
ae following not shot at Gov. Davis
as to boodlers:
"Governor Davis gives another re-
son why / should not be elected gov
ernor. He says NJ. D. J.. Cook is
nv friend, and does not want any
,.codlers parGoned My friends, | know
Mr. Cook, but never had a business
transaction with him. l am not here
to say any man is guilty until he Is
proven So All I know about bribery
is this: While I was prosecuting at
tcrney constable in Crawford county
arrested two 15-year-old boys. They
were drunk. He carried one to his
father and tcld him that he had taken
a pistol from the boy, and for 81? he
would turn him loose. The old father
raid him. He then took the other boy
to his parents and made the same de-
mand. This father replied that he had
nc money. I will take him to Jail
then said the constable. When the
boy's old mother said: My God, don't
take my boy to Jail. Here is 81, all
that | have; take that This old
mother had been to town that day on
a mule. carrying butter, eggs, potatoes
I'D dried apples, and brought back ST..
This constable took her money and
turned her boy loose. These people
were poor and were soon run cut Of
the country, but got after the consta-
Tie, indicted him, convicted him, and
sent him to the penitentiary. and Gov
ernGr Davis pardoned him within six
weeks. Why should he be afraid that
I would pardon bribe-givers or bribe-
takers?"

A GRATIFYING CONDITION.

Among the many grounds for felic.
itation that the south ENJOYS today
nCne is more gratifying than the re-
lease of this ST ction from it's former
necessity of going to the north and
cast for money to move its cotton crop
Until very recently. about the first
CT August every bank in the south
had TO make ARRANGEMENTS in New
York for money to handle the south's
staple. Today this work is practi-
cally accomplished out of home re-
sources and hundreds OF thousands are
thereby saved in interest Moreover
this abundance of home money H.
ter enables the grower to market his
lrodnct iudiciously, inst cad Of delus-
ing the market with it at inopportnne
times
The Graphic has frequently noted
tbe mHli iplication CT banks in this sec
lion during the past few years. Refer
ri3e 10 this growth the Baltimore
Manufacturers Record notes the addi-
tions to antional banks as follows:
Further evidence of the great
growth of banking facilities in the
south is furnished in a recent bullet in
issued by the comptroller Of the cur
rency. It shows that from the passage
of the act of March 14,1900, up to the
end of July this year there were or
sanized in the SOUTH including Mis-
souri, Oklahoma and Indian Territory.
942 national banks. with an aggregate
capital cf nearly $50,000,0OO, the exact
figures being $4S.94S, 800 Of this TO-
tai, GIG We're banks with less than
$4,000 capital, their total capitaliza-
tlon bein& slG,52S5 500, and BIG had
capital of $4,000 or more, their total
capitalization being $32 2,410,0OO. The
new country in the Indian T<rrit0ry
and Oklahoma is rapidly being sup
piled with banking facilities, as is
shown by the fact that 21S national
hanks alone were organized there dur
ing the period, with an aggregate cap
ital of $6.71O,000 OF these. 1877 were
of the smaller class with $4,SO5, 900
capital and 81 were Of the larger class
with $4,000 capital or more, their to-
al capitalization being s1.905, 900
This has reference to national banks
alone. The increase in the number of
state hanks is nc doubt quite as large;
fer although We have not at hand, the
tsures showing the growth in this
connection, it. IS generally known that
the smaller towns everywhere are
establishing banks of this character
and their multiplication has been very
rapid. The result is that the banks

hall. The convention meeting was
filled with the life and spice OF the
pageant just witnessed and many re-

a moment when there was moment

Tall, well formed and in the flush

cd far over the balcony in which he
was seated and caught the eye OF
Nasterworkman PoWderly. For a
moment his Voice was hardly heard
above the din of sound. Gradually
the noise about him became less and
soon his full round tones were heard
in the farthest recesses of the great
aal. At the conclusion of his address,
which was filled with rhetorical
bursts of oratory he stopped for a
moment. and with voice choked with
emotion and showing the depth of his
feelings, he said: 81 move you, Mr..
Chairman, that it be the unanimous
decision of this convention that here

aside and on that day labor shall but

He sat down and the cheering

THE CHRISTENING OF LABOR DAY

The recurrence of labOr's annual
holiday this year finds the organized
workingmen and workingwomen of
America stronger in numbers than
ever before. When it is considered
that the trades union movement on
this side of the Atlantic has extended
over only about century it's pro
gress is truly amazing. The earlies!
known trade union composed of jour
neymen was the New York Society of
Journeymen Shipwrights. which was
legally incorporated in 1903. In the
same city three years later unions of
tailors and carpenters were formed
and in 1919 a union of hatters was or
ganiZed
Thus the history of the trades union
movement goes back a century, but
the inception of Labor Day is of a
much more recent date. And among
the many hundreds of thousands of
workmen who, on the first Monday
III September each year, parade the
streets in labors cause il is safe 10

Robert Price once well-known
resident of I.onaconne. Md, is the
man to whom all honor of Labor Day
is due. And yet his name is well-nigh
forgotten in labor circles, his verv
whereabouts beng uncertain. He was

But quarter of a century ago
Price was sturdy miner, bringing
forth by the sweat of his brow and

treasures of Mother Earth. At that
time the Knight of Labor was ap-
preaching the zenith of it's power
which continued to increase until 1886
when the American Federation of
Labor gained the ascendancy One
o. the strongest workers for the
Knights of Labor in his own district
was Price. Early and late he labored

4. w. Lewelling, the practical
farmer and institute orator, is not
only instructive III what he tells
the farmer to do, but cq us llv so
in what he tells them to avoid.
He says: Instead Of buying
ground oyster shells at eXtrava-
giant prices for your poultry, use
natures common sense article,
which the bird prefers TO all
others, viz. common sand, have il
abundantly convenient to your
birds and you will not grumble
because your hens do not lay.
Provide "A dust both of ashes or
Mother Earth" instead of buy
ing poultry powder of some fakir;
scald and salt your poultry house
and toosts instead of buying
Liza James" lice killer.
Instead of feeding expensive
powders and stock feed TO your
hogs provide for them, in the
summer time, a good clover or al
falfa pasture and hay from the
same in winter.
Mr.. Lewelling emphasized the
Importance Of these things to the
farmer and insisted that the bull
dog should be turned loose when
these fellows which before long
would be coming around with
their spurious and expensive
wares.
He said also that, "any farmer
can write to the State Expert
ment Station, making his re-
quest known ana the officers
there will gratuitously send him
a formula from which he can
compound his own stock powders
much better in quality, and at
less than one fourth the cost"

gradients and many were seen in
the audience writing it down.

now see Nemaha county torn

thing for Nemaha County to do

it there is to fight shy of the old
