The bill of the canary is built for

1T is difficult to say how much birds

THERE ARE OTHERS, HE SAYS
All Anti-Semites Don't Live in Russia
He Lays Down the Law.

De Witte thinks the Russian Jews
who are acting in this manner are
blind, for if they are defeated they will
be more oppressed than before. where
as if successful the remainder of the
population, which is more anti-Semitic
than in other countries, will oblige
them to fly the country. Russian aver
sion to Jewish preponderance, the eX-
premier thinks. should not occasion
surprise because the same feeling ex-
lists to a greater or less degree in all
countries. including the United States.
where some of the rules regarding inn
migration have been designed chiefly
to exclude Russian Jews. whose num-
bers, especially in New York. United
States citizens feel are becoming threat
ening.
The Jews Of Russia had only one
proper course to pursue. and that was
to Insist that all rights granted other
races be also granted 10 them-noth-
ing more and nothing less. Having re-
sorted to violence they provoked re
prisals and reaction, especially from
the conservative element known as
the BLACK Hundreds" which element
from conservatism has become as ievo-
lutionary as that which it fights Count
de White explains that the conserved
tiyes originally were called the "Rlack
Hundreds in deriSiOn. Their rising
has shown what large forces they CON
troll and how easily n struggle between
two parties may degenerate into civil
war and anarchy.
The troubles of the past week at
BialyStok are the best illustration OF
the situation. as they We're caused by
Jews killing Chief of Police Derkat-

ti0nally conservative official, whose en-

Among the midshipmen recently
graduated from the United States
naval academy at Annapolis, Mary
land, was Robert l.. Ghormley, of
Moscow, Idaho. Ghormley was APP
pointed to the academy four years
ago by ex-senator Heitfeld, and
made most enviable record. In
a class of over hundred he gradu-
ated near the head and there were
many among his classmates, who
before being appointed to the acad-
envy attended some notable col
leges and universities in the coun-
try. During his four year course,
he stood very high in his studies,
and aside from this he was during
the last year lieutenant colonel of
the battalion Of midshipmen, and
was the highest cadet officer dur
ing the inaugural ceremonies last
March. Mr.. Ghormley probably
has the best record Of any midship-
man from the northwest for several
years. He has also made quite
record in athletics at the academy,
being a member of the football
team for two years. He has been
ordered to sail from New York on
the first Of March and report to
the cruiser West Virginia, which is
now in Cuban waters, where his
real work in the navy will begin.

4 Hint 10 Teachers.

BY Ex-Governor Hoard,
We have long felt that teachers make
a serious mistake in their teaching in
not first explaining the meaning of the
terms they use. For instance, when it
comes to the teaching of arithmetic
they go ahead using the words multi
plier," ''multiplicand," "quotient,
"divisor," dividend" etc, without
thinking that to the new beginner all
this is as Greek. The same difficulty
arises in the study of grammar and
other studies. There are host of
term words which block the way to
clear understanding or even to the es-
tablishing of the spirit or desire for UNI
derstanding, until their meaning and
use are seen.
Without a clear understanding of the
meaning of terms, there can come to
no mind a clear knowledge of that
which is taught
We remember well when a child how
we baked and stumbled for long time
in all of our youthful studies because
our teachers could not see that we
could go no faster than we could under
stand the meaning of the terms that
enveloped the thing we were studying.
Here is the key to success even in
after life. In reading, if we run over
words without knowing the meaning
they convey, we have gained nothing.
We might as well have read some for
eign language.
The time is well spent by the teacher
in taking thorough pains all the way
along to explain the meaning of the
technical terms used. This done, the
scholar will grow up with an accurate
power of expression, which is certainly
a desirable thing.

In Time of Peace.

In the first months of the Russia ia
pan war we had striking example of
the necessity for preparation end the
early advantage of those who, so to
speak, ''have shingled their roofs in dry
weather" The virtue of preparation
has made history and given to us our
greatest men. The individual as well as
the nation should be prepared for any
emergency. Are you prepared to sue

A cold can be cured mach more quickly

is There 10 be u Railroad Rate War

The Milwaukee Journal contained an
article recently which, if true, would
indicate that the Wisconsin Central, UNI
der its new management, is to take a
hand in a little rate slashing in which
the public will be the beneficiary. 1t is
generally believed that before the be-
ginning of the new year, or before the
next legislature has chance to act,
railroads in Wisconsin of their own ac-
cord will institute two cent fare. The
item says:
"The recent announcement of the
possibility of a rate war in Wisconsin
with the Wisconsin Central road as the
aggressor seems to be borne out by
word from the east that the Chicago,
CINCINNATI & Louisville road will insti-
tute fare of two cents a mile between
all important points Nov. /.
There is probably no other action
open to the road that would have at
tracted more attention the country over
to its affairs and management. Friends
of the line and of the Wisconsin Cen
trail say that the new men at the helm
are going to show that they are fully
alive to the railroad situation and the
needs Of the roads they are operating.
The announcement of the reduced fare
on the Chicago, CINCINNATI & Louisville
is an important one, for the reason that
practically the same interests in that
system are at the head of the Wscon-
sin Central road The only regular fast
rrains in the west are being maintained
between Milwaukee and Chicago, some
Of them being a part of the schedule
to st, Paul and Minneapolis. This ser
vice would undoubtedly be affected by
the announcement of two cent fare
on the Wisconsin Central. and that such
an announcement is coming is said to
be extremely likely"

BabCOCk Is Defeated.

Mr.. J. w. Babcock who has repre-
scented this, the third district, in con-
gress for seven terms, was defeated on
Tuesday for reelection by from 800 to
900. The counties of Iowa, Grant, Rich
land, Crawford and Sank go against
him, while the counties of Vernon and
Juneau return majortes in his favor.
Mr.. Babcock has for several years
been one of the most prominent mem

defeat will be more or less of surprise
all over the country.
