HON. CHARLES SCOTS SPEECH
MONDAY NIGHT.

The speech delivered by the Hon.
ChaS. Scott at the court house here
Monday night clearly demonstrated
that he is a man of fine literary at
tainmentS and that he uses the Eng
liSh language with a highly credita-
BILE skill and force. His wealth,
which has enabled him to travel ex-
tensiyely, has gretly strengthened
his literary researches and added to
his effectiveness as a platform enter
tainer. He quotes from various
authors with ease and frequently in
ject sentences from a foreign Ian
guage into his discourse.
Notwithstanding all this. he shows
a lamentable lameneSs in dealing
with affairs that touch the welfare
and interest of the masses. This is a
day of practical politics as we'll as
practical affairs. Fourth of July
Orations, where g%eneralities are dealt
with, do not meet the needs Of the
laboriDg mar who must toll day by
day to maintain himself and family
nor do they point to the pathway
whereby the man with a mortgaged
home or farm may find relief and the
rich may be made to bear more
equitably their share of the burden
of government. The thought forces
itself upon the mind after hearing
Mr.. Scott, that, Notwithstanding he
is now past sixty years of age, he has
been absorbed exclusively in his own
affairs and that he is unqueStionably
better posted in national politics than
he. is on the tax problems and the
other issues that confront the PEG
pie of Mississippi.
And we repeat, Notwithstanding
his age, up to this good day, the time
he wanted Office, has his heart not
80 warmed to the needs of the people

silent on the various issues that ha We
confronted the people, The logical
conclusion must be then, that he has
been too much wrapped up with his
| legal business and with making him.

world to give his time and talents to

His real estate is worth perhaps

claims that he owns 3 $1,000 acres Of

qualify him for the governorship.
| The people will remember that the
reason that it il so difficult to get
anti-cOrpOratiOn legislation through
the United States senate today, is
because there are too many million

There was little or nothing con-
Structive in his speech or what he
promised in the event Of his electi on.
He sought to magnify himself and
minify all OF his competitors by
claiming that he, and he alone, was
the target for all of them, while anyone
that has heard the other eentlmen

His speech vas remarkable for
what he did not say on the questions
vital now to the people rather than
for what he did say. He failed to
state how he stood on a child labor
law which would prevent poor child

He failed to say whether or not he
favored separating young boys who
are so unfortunate as to be sent to |
the penetentiary from old and har-
dencd criminals. In reference to his
being criticised for being a railroad
attorney, he stated he had recently re-
He failed to state why he

the race for governor and why he
waited until he saw the people would
not tolerate corporate connection in

to state that a Stenographer'S re-
port OF Mr.. Brewers speech, taken
down at the time and sworn to by the
stenographer as well as by a large
number of citizens who heard what
passed, did not tally with what he
aid. He failed to state also that
dr. Brewer had gone back to Green

would not meet him (Brewer).

the public mind for many days, the
proposition of the county S~uperintend-

SElF-LiGHTlNG BUOY.
A Novelty on the Lusitania That At.
tracted Attention.

One feature of the big Lusitania
which attracted crowds when she was
open for inspection was the automatic
life buoy which is fastened between
decks on slanting frame in such a
way that it can be released by the
pressure of a button on the bridge.
On each end of the four arms of a
large cross-shaped framework is a
copper ball. These balls are so
weighted that when the buoy strikes
the water 1t will float upright To the
crossarms are fastened long brass cyl
inders. These cylinders are calcium
carbide lights so arranged that they
fare up by contact with the water.
Should a cry of Man overheard" be
raised at night the officer on the
bridge presses the button, the buoy
hits the water and the lights fare up.
If the man overheard is swimmer he
can reach the buoy, to the arms of
which loops are attached to aid him
in keeping above water. The ship
also has mark to guide 1t.

Butter in Roas.

From time to time Jumps of butter
are dug out Of the Irish boys, and
specimens Of 1t may be seen in various
museums. A chemical examination
has recently been made Of sample
of such butter, which was found four
feet below the surface of a bog at
Maghery, County Tyrone. The original
lump, which weighed about 20 pounds,
is probably some centuries old, and 1t
is suggested that 1t had been put into
peat water to preserve 1t or to give
It flavor and had been forgotten. Yet
SO effectually had the fat been pre-
served by the peat water that 1t still
retained many Of the chemical char
acterisitcs Of butter fat. though Its
appearance had greatly changed. The
exterior was white and granular, and
the whole mass had been converted
during the passage of years into a
waxlike material.

Cat Killed by Hail.

In the hailstorm of the other day
Pail Hill, manager of the Omaha cat
terry, 3017 Charles street, lost White
Faun, one of his most valuable pussies.
In the Omaha cattery are kept some
20 pedigreed cats, all of which are
worth great deal of money. The cat
house itself is made of tar paper, being
a temporary structure, and when the
hail fell it beat through the roof, caus.
ing the death Of White Faun, the big
white pussy Of them all.
White Faun was lying in box d.
rectly under the center of the roof
The other aristocratic cats were play
ing about The yard. When the hail
began Mr.. and Mrs. Hill ran to their
rescue, but poor White Faun lay ex
posed to the death-dealing blows Of
the immense hailstones. When the
proprietors of the cattery came back
they found White Faun lying dead
She was valued at $3.50.
