IT PAYS TO BREED THE BEST.
Why Farmers Should Raise ctandard
Poultry.

Notwithstanding the great advance
mept made In the breeding OF stand
ard poultry throughout the United
States, the farmer Is but small per
cent OF the class OF persons which has
taken mp this work. Why this Is l
cannot say. but records show that the
largest proportion Of the prize win
ming birds exhibited In the majority OF
poultry shows are raised In cities and
villages. The farmer, rs a rule. con-
tributes a very small number OF the
high-class birds that are now being
raised in this country.
The growth OF tina industry is large
ly due to persons residing in the cit
les. Professional men, business men
and wage earners seem to form the
poultry associations that hold the ex-
hibitions and 1t is the birds raised on
the small lots that occupy the coops
in the show room, with an occasional
exhibitor from the farm. Now II al.
ways seems strange to me. says the
editor OF the American Poultry Jour-
nal, that the American farmer is so
slow to grasp the opportunity that
confronts him in the raising OF stand.
ard poultry. He has long been con.
verted to the idea that a razor-back
hog is Improbable; that nothing but
standard bred sheep and cattle are
worth devoting much time to- but still
he insists that common barnyard fowls
are good enough and that there is no
money in chickens. anyway" I won

largest industries in the country. I
wonder II he knows that in dollars
and cents the poultry business ex.
Oeeds that Of wheat. Still he is con-
tent and takes no interest In q branch
OF farming that would pay him the
best OF anything on his farm.

PROPER CARE OF THE HAIR.
1riIliantine Restores Oils That Have
Been Dried Out by Dye.

Why will women continue to have
their hair dyed? The result Is In

Let dyes alone. Many recommend
the use of brilliantine. for 1t is only
by the application Of oils that a wom-
an can hope to make up those natural
ones dried out by the dye.
A mixture made Of one ounce OF
pure olive oil. half an ounce of cologne,
4 quarter of an ounce Of gum benzoin
and four ounces Of alcohol is good.
Dissolve the gum in the alcohol and
add the oil. Strain and add two
ounces of castor oil and half a dram

SCHMIIz' BAIL
Will FOOT Up
OVER 100000.

San Francisco, CAL, Jan. 11.-An
application for the release on bail
of Eugene e. Schmitz, who has been
c.'nfined in the county Jail for eight
II onths, was made to Superior Judge
Dunno today by Attorney Frank G.
Ilew of counsel for the former
mayor. At the request of Assistant
district Attorney VIM. Hoffcook, who
declared that he had not been adj
vlsed of the intention of the defend.
ant to ask for bail until late last
night, and on account of the absence
from the city of District Attorney
Langdon, Judge Dunno postponed
the matter until Monday morning.
On Monday the application for bail
will not only be refused, But the
court will also be asked to reduce
the aggregate bail on the forty in
dictments against Schmitz which is
i'll the neighborhood of $5OOuOU. The
counsel for Schmitz was informed
the latter's right to bail would be
vigorously contested.
After the matter of the bail for
the former mayor had been disposed
of before Judge Dunno, Schmitz,
James w. Coffroth, manager of the
Athletic club, Eddie M. Graney, a
well-known referee, and Willis Britt,
the manager for James Britt, were
arraigned on nine indictments in
connection with granting Of fight per
mits exclusively to the so-called
fight trust"
Abraham Ruef, who is also named
in the indictments, was not present
in court. Attorneys for the respec-
tive clients asked that they be giver
one week in which to answer the in
dictments, the obvious intention be-
ing to attack their legality. The mo-
tion was granted.

Spirited Fight Over. COnspir.
acy Clause Of Proposed
Penal Code

Washington, D. c., Jan. 11.7A vi
gorous fight was waged in the house
today over the bill to codify and
revise the penal laws of the United
States, with particular reference to
section nineteen, affecting conspir-
acy against the civil rights of citi-
zens. Smith of Missouri, and
Hughes of New Jersey, offered
amendments having for their object
the exemption of labor unions from

ever such unions declare strikes or

whole section was made by Mr.. Bart
lett of Georgia.
The brunt of the debate was borne
by Mr.. Sherley of Kentucy, member
of the committee on revision, but
he was supported by a number of
republicans. These amendments were

RIVAL FACTIONS
II CLASH in Ohio
Taft and Foraker Men Have
Warm Time Over Con-
troll Of Committee

Cleveland, Ohio, Jan. 1.-THE first
stroke of the Forakers followers here
was made today when in mass
meeting a committee was selected to
displace the regular republican
county executive committee.
A question of the legality of the
committee selected as against the
regular" committee, said by Forak-
critics to be Taft organization, will
now be placed in the hands of the
county board of elections. The
claims of a so-called Roosevelt com
mittee, a third element in the local
situation, also rests in the same situ-
alton.
1t will be the duty of the board to
determine which committee has au-
thority to act for the party in this
county. To place the issue squarely
before the board each committee has
issued a call for republican primaries
all on the same date, Feb. Ii.
The regular committee, held by
the Foraker element to be without
authority, precipitated crisis by fill
ing a call for primaries with the
board of elections yesterday.
Immediately the Foraker faction
protested the rights of the committee
and issued call for convention to
select the committee. Last. evening
the Roosevelt organization named a
committee, and today the Foraker
committee was named. The board
has until next Wednesday to decide
upon the merits of each of the three
claimants.

There seems to be some misunder-
standing regarding the nature of the
decision of the supreme court in the
matter of the law granting reward
of $50 for the conviction of blind
piggers. The supreme court did not
by any means decide whether this
law had been repealed, whether it
was unconstitutional, or any other
matter affecting the status of the
law. The supreme court merely re-
fused to take jurisdiction of the case,
in the manner it was brought before
it, which was an application to com.
pei State Auditor Holmes to pay the
reward through mandamus The
court held that it was not a matter in
which the state was a party in in.
terest, and that actions for the re.
ward should be brought by a. suit
against the state auditor in the regu.
lar way. Under the decision of the
supreme court, any person who has
a claim for this reward may bring
an action for the payment of the sum
claimed to be due him, and the state
courts, in the regular way will pass
upon the validity of his claim.

no tuberculosis in the milk at all
if a clean healthful supply of milk
could be assured to all cities through
the cleaning up of diaries by the con-
domination of infected animals.
There is little question but the
sources of supply of milk for many cit
les is contaminated with tuberculosis
and frequent and stubborn stomach and
intestinal diseases of children, where
treatment gives little in the way OF
satisfactory results, are the result of
infection from tubercular germs, to
result in ultimate disease and death.
There are those, unfortunately, who
oppose the work of the department,
because of the pecuniary loss that
might be involved, or because of an
unbelief in the theory of the trans
mission of this disease. Nevertheless
rapid strides are being made in the
sane and sensible fight upon the tu-
berculosis germ, and within genera
ton we should see substantial results
accomplished and the steady progress
of this dreaded disease checked
through scientific methods of proven.
ton of contagion or infection. Milk
{; from smallpox hospital would hard
ly be permitted to be sold, and yet
milk from tubercular surroundings
where the chances of recovery if the
disease is contracted are far less than
those in smallpox sold and will
continue to be until public sentiment
lends support to the government work
All of this shows how important it
is to have inspection of dairy herds
and in fact all dairy cows where the
product is distributed broadcast.

ELIMINATING THE PEOPLE AND
SUBSTITUTING THE BOSS

When the primary election law was
passed, it was argued by some of it's
supporters, who are among the most
active of the insurgents in the state,
that it was time to take the selec-
ton of candidates for office out Of
the hands of the few and put it into
the hands of the people where it be-
longed.
Strange enough, the insurgent
leaders of the state have chosen ut
terly to disregard either the form or
the spirit of the primary law, and
theirs is a gradual process of elimin-
alton, by which the people are shut
out and the selection and Endorsement
by few self-constituted leaders.
At the insurgent convention at
Grand Forks, there was a pretense of
popular representation, although as a
matter of fact subsequent develop
ments have shown that there was in
reality no popular representation
worthy of the name. the delegates
i 81
being for the most part chosen by one
or two men, their expenses paid or
offered to be paid by one or two men,
and their selection being altogether in
the interest of one candidate for the
United States senate.
But at the Fargo meeting recently
held. we find a smaller, very much
smaller presentation. and yet the
few persons who gathered took it up
on themselves again to nominate can
didates for Office, under the insurgent
republican banner.
A logical evolution of the methods
of the insurgents will be the selection
of candidates by a committee of nine
and then by a committee of five and
finally by, perhaps, one man, who
will be empowered to say who shall
run and who shall not.
This is the spirit of the insurgent
movement and the manner in which it
has degenerated into boss ruled or.
ganization, more arrogant and more
distatorial than ever was the ole
guard in this state, of which the in.
surgents are fond of making com
plants.
