A New York yachtsman has just
launched an auxiliary schooner with a
waterline length of $50 feet He will
have the largest sailing yacht in this
country, and by providing her with en-
gines will have also a power yacht that
an take him about without regard for
the winds. This is compromise that
ought to appeal favorably to old-time
yachtsmen. If generally adopted it
would retain the real spirit of yachting
while at the same time yachtsmen en-
joy the advantage of steam yachting.

And now comes a Chicago policeman,
Sergt McCrotty, after a six weeks visit
to the old country, with the unsettling
story that the real Irish blackthorn has
become SO scarce in Ireland that sup
ply sufficient for the manufacture of
walking sticks and shiIlelahs cannot be
procured at home, and that therefore
blackthorn sticks grown in the United
States are imported by the shipload and
sold to tourists for the real thing. What
seems to be needed in Ireland under the
circumstances is an adaptation of the
principles of pure food legislation 10

The Patent Office has issued state
ment that 100000 patents have been
recorded since the office was opened in
January, 1886. This is a tremendous
record of ingenuity which in some in
stances brought riches and in many 9TH
er instances in which the patented device
seemed to be equally practical and valu-
able brought only ruined hopes. II
would be interesting to know how many
of the originators of the 100000 patents
taken out in the seventy-two years of
the patent system brought wealth TO the

Georgia has at least practically abol-
ished her convict system. The special
session of the Legislature called for the
consideration of the matter has adj
journed after agreement to abolish the
present leasing system. Conyicts may
hereafter be used for the construction of
state roads, and by municipalities under
certain considerations They may also be
used by the counties and in public insti-
tutions. All eonvicts not so used may
be disposed of by the State Prison Com
mission and the Governor, who will be
responsible if any evils develop in con
nection with the employment chosen.
This is compromise system but it will
probably work out all the evils of the
old plan Of employing convicts.

CONSERVATION OF

Far Reaching Policy for the Good

ing Easier Each Year.

An extremely important feature of
the constructive Republican policy is
the national movement for the conser-
Walton of the natural resources of the
country. This measure has been orig
mated by the present Republican ad-
ministration and. like the homestead
law, the national irrigation act and
other measures for the benefit of the
whole people, its influence is destined
to be far reaching and productive of
great good to the home builders of the
country
The National Conservation Commits
sion as it exists to-day is an outgrowth
of the Inland Waterways Commission
this Commission was appointed by
President Roosevelt in March, 1907. In
his letter creating the Waterways Com
mission the President uses this lam
guage: That the Inland Waterways
Commission shall.consider the relations
Of the streams to the use of all the

tenance of prosperous homes"
Home Building for the People.
The inquiries of the commission along
the lines indicated led to the proposal
to the President on Oct. that he call
conference on the general subject of
the conservation of the national re-
sources of the nation. Among other
reasons mentioned for this movement
their letter to the President stated !:
Hitherto our national policy has been
one of almost unrestricted disposal of
natural resources, and this in more Law
ish measure than by any other nation
III the worlds history; and this policy
of the federal government has been
shared by the constituent States Three
consequences have ensued First, un-
precedented consumption of natural re-
sources; second, exhaustion of these
resources to the extent that a large
part of our available public lands have
passed into great estates or corporate
interests, our forests are so far depict
ed as to multiply the cost of forest
products, and our supplies of coal and
iron ore are so far reduced as to en-
nance prices; and third unequalled OPP
portunity for private monopoly, to the
extent that both the federal and State
sovereignties have been compelled to
enact laws for the protection of the
people.
Eve are of opinion that the time has
come for considering the policy of con
serving these material resources on
which the permanent prosperity of our
country and the equal opportunity of
all our people must depend we are also
of opinion that the policy of conserva-
ton has so marked an advance on that
policy adopted at the outset of our ma

Bryan Does Not Answer Questions.
"A number of the most direct and
important questions on his attitude to-
ward labor's real interest have been
submitted to Bryan and so far he has
not condescended from his pedestal to
offer definite reply. He has been
asked: Are you aware of the fact that
since your nomination, and your in
dorSement by the executive officers of
the American Federation of Labor, the
governor of Alabama, one of your
friends and allies, has used his power
to crush the labor organizations in
that State, placing troops at the dis

been submitted to him:

members of the unions concerned with
the river shipping are on strike and
that the Democratic administration of
that city is trying to break the strike
by sending honest. law-abiding strik-
ers who refuse to 'scab' to the chain
gang?
Assuming that you are ignorant of
these facts at present, will you not, as
leader of the Democratic party, make
immediate inquiries upon the matter,
and if you find the facts to be as
stated, will you openly and unequivo-
cally condemn the Democrats of Mis-
sisslppi who are responsible for those
conditions and repudiate them?

suffering from distressing indigestion
that they can surely be relieved.
Since nobody knows when, people
have suffered from Indigestion, sick
headaches, bloating, dizzy spells, dis
tress after eating, sleeplessness, and
many other symptoms of stomach
trouble, and have found the usual
remedies powerless.
At last a prescription called Mi-o-

medical profession and general pub
lie as a final solution of curing stom-
ach and intestinal troubles. Its sue
cess everywhere has made it, in the
last few years, the acknowledged
specific it is today.
Strengthen the whole digestive
system with Mi-o-na, and you will
soon find that the stomach and bowels
do their work as they should. There
will be no distress after eating, and
no need Of physic.
Tallman & Co. have so much faith
in the power of Mi-o-na to cure stom-
ach ills that they give a guarantee
with every 50-cent box to refund the
money If the remedy fails to cure.
