In cultlvating1 use a twelve-tooth
cultivator between the rows and hoe

plants start, l carefully place the run

about six inches apart. allow the
rows to get about one foot wide.

Lay the ears Of corn in a re W on the

It would be a sin for the new town

Hearne and Bowers both declared

FIFTY-THIRD SESSION OF THE IN
TERNATIoNAL TYPOGRAPHY
CAL UNION WAS OPENED
THIS MORNING.
Many Delegates Attend
President Lynch and Secretary Bran
wood Submit Reports, Showing
Progress Made - Immense
Sum Collected and Ex-
pended Recently.

Hot Springs, Ark, Aug. l2.-The
fifty-third convention of the Interna
tional Typographical Union was called
TO order this morning in the spacious
dining room of the Eastman Hotel
which mas been temporarily converted
into a convention hall. Addresses OF
welcome were made by the mayor Of
the city, the officers of the local UNION
and others, and were respondedQ1 ~
| Presida-a jams NJ ni-iiS6i1s
ports of officers were then HTtsekted
to the convention. About 1,500 dele
gates and visitors are in attendance.
The report of President Lynch is
comprehensive document, and covers
the progress made by the Internation-
al Typographical Union for the period
elapsing since the Colorado Springs
convention. and also outlines new pol
icies and touches upon those that
have become a part of the work and
history of the organization. Among
other things an aggressive campaign
for the union label is recommended.
and It is quite likely that this subject
will occupy considerable of the con-
vention's time. The campaign for an
eight-hOur day. which has been vigor-
ously prosecuted by the international
Typographical Union for nearly two
years. is touched upon extensively,
and Il is shown that this movement
has been attended with a very large
degree Of success. about $4,000 men,
bers OF the union now working not
more than eight-hours per day.
In the presidents report the propo-
sition to pension the superannuated
and incapacitated members of the
union is given considerable space.
This feature, If adopted. will be a new
venture for the union. but it is looked
on with much favor by the delegates,
and undoubtedly a proposition en-
bracing the pension feature will be
submitted 10 a membership vote of the
International Typographical Union.
This union, on the introduction Of
the typesetting machines, avoided the
error committed by other trade unions
in fighting the machine, and encour-

MORE FACTS IN THE CASE.

The question of the bond issue fol-
paving streets has been fully present
ed to the voters until am sure every
intelligent man understands that such
Improvement will not incur an addi'
tional tax. 1t is only a proposition to
take a part of the money heretofore
collected for permanent improve
ments. in paving interest and sinking
fund on school house bonds which
have been retired. and applying it to
other needed improvements of the
city. There would be no excuse to
vote against the bond issue on ac-
count of an increase in city taxes.
There is absolutely no grounds TO fear
such an event.
But, there are citizens who are as
much interested in civic improve
ments as / am and who look to the
welfare and prosperity of the city;
extending their view 10 q more gen.
eral distribution of the city money
where 1t would reach and benefit d.
rectly every man, woman and child.
They argue it would be best for the
city to use a sufficient amount of this
surplus permanent improvement
fund" to aid the school board in pay
ing for a full nine months free
school, and avoid for at least this
term the necessity of organizing pay
school for two months, which is an
indirect tax on the citizen.
Now, as a school trustee, and a citi-
zen who has always taken deep in
terest in our public schools | would
gladly hail and sanction this relief
But here comes in the law and estops
the city council from collecting one
dollar for public improvements, and
diverting 1t to any other purpose. In
other words, it can't be done. And
while the suggestion manifests a gen
erous patriotic spirit it is not permits
sible.
Let us unite and vote to pave the
two streets, and when the state rail
road depot is located, and the Yank-
ton, South Dakota and Gulf trunk line
(which is sure to pass through our
city,, has established its depot and
shops, then let us pave some more
streets and have a big sign in gilt
letters, on each of the three depots.
