The Farmers Fight.

The farmers have the sympathy and
support of every right thinking mar
in their fight to get a living price
for their cotton. Whatever affects
the welfare Of the farmer affects the
entire country, and every individual
in it.
Farming is the foundation Of all ma
tioual prosperity, just exactly as the
land under your house is the founda-
tion of that house. The wealth Of
the United States in the long run cen
sists of those things that we get out
of the earth, plus the human intelli-
gence devoted to their use prepara-
tion or manufacture.
When the farmer is prosperous the
nation is prosperous. Dwellers in cit
les forget the farmer very often, but
they wouldn't forget him for second
if he suddenly ceased to exist or gave
up his difficult work. The farmer is
the most important man in the coun-
try to US all. Whatever interferes
with him interf rs W ,th US all.
Then let U sta I'd shoulder to shoul-
der W tn him in his fight against the
speculators.

How to Hear Noursclf Snorc.

Most people who snore have ar
idea that they don't, and many q man
has kept awake half the night trying
to catch himself in the act and then
triumphantly conclude that he wasn't
addicted to the pernicious habit. To
find out whether you snorc or wheth-
er you don't tits no longer necessary
to lose sleep over it, and the finding
is likely to be accurate. Get a phon-
ograph and sleep with your nose pok-
ed close into the horn. The next day
start the machine running. If you
have snored during the night the
machine will reproduce the noise
with a monotony that will appall you
and you will no longer wonder why
your wife can t sleep at night.

Immigrants Brides.

Those American cities where the
big passenger steamers land thous-
ands of immigrants each year wit
ness many romantic marriages be-
tween long parted lovers. Years be-
fore, the men have left their sweet
hearts to build a home in the land of
promise across the sea. There is a
long period of druid gerry, and there
are aching hearts on both sides Of the
great body of water. But in no other
land is industry so quickly and sure
" rewarded. In time there is enough
Of money to bring over the promised
bride. The meeting at the landing
is one of joy. After satisfying the
official at the landing that the bride
has come to America expressly to
marry the man who claims her there
is hasty marriage, with friends of
their own nationality as witnesses,
and the ha::py couple proceed on
their way to Ike better and broader
lives than was possible in their ma

ARRIVED AT SEATTLE.
Two Hundred and Forty-Twc Sur
vivorS from Wrecked Ship.

The revenue cutter Thetis, Capt
a. J. Henderson, arrived at Seattle
on last Thursday night bringing 242
survivors of the wrecked American
ship John Currier,, which, in a fog
went aground at Eristol Bay, Alaska
on Augusts 8. The work Of rescue
constitutes the greatest saving OF
lives with a single exception in the
history Of Pacific shipping.
The Thetis took over the survi-
vors at Unalaska, where they were
brought by the cutter McCulloch af-
ter they had spent thirty-four days on
a barren beach. Had not assistance
arrived an attempt would nave been
made the following day 70 reach a
settlement feat considered so I'M
possible as to have been a failure and
caused the death of many OF the par
ty.
Among the rescued are 130 Orien-
tai cannery hands and 10 Caucasian
fishermen. Capt. Murchison's wife
and five young children endured the
privations of the adventure.

Wants an Editor.

Professor Asher E.. Gluck of Chicago
wants an editor for his monthly peri.
odical, the Simple Life. He says there
are a number Of people ready to joir
him in his colony, but he needs a
newspaper to make known bis views
He has great mass Of matter ready
for print, but he is so busy with other
simple life work that he cannot at
tend to it himself. Therefore he wants
! an editor. PERHAPS it will be better
10 let Mr.. Gluck himself tell just what
he wants. Here it is:
Il wnnt man to come in with US
on the simple life system. No man can
properly edit sinp life publication
if he is not living the simple life. He
may think he can. but it stands to
reason that if he lives the life he will
be better editor.
Il want such a man to live like US,
dress like US and acl like US. Every
body must work eight hours day. His
eight hours of editing Will be cQliva-
lent to eight hours of floor scru5bing
or any other task Of the simple life
colony.
you see, l wear no socks I go
arcund barefcoted. I wear no under
clothes My street suit is of linen and
costs 81 50 complete. I'm a vegetar-
ian.
My wife and l live or s. a week in
summer and 81 in winter. and We have
the hest. The editor employ must
get into our way Of living. ard then
he'll MAKE a grand success. I have
told those who want wages that I'm
after another kind Of man.
:. think a man editing a paper in
MS bare feet will be more comfortable
IN body and thus keener in mind than
an editor in tight shoes. I'm af, ,er the
simple life editor"
Here is a golden opportunity for
some fellow who feels that he has a
call to the editorial chair. Some of the i
are somewhat eyacting,
but Prof. Gluck claims that the sim
pie life will more than compensate for
ali the hardships
