Mexico Missouri message. (Mexico, Audrain County, Mo.) 1899-1918, 1908-03-12

r HE motto I'm God We Trust" will
be restored to the gold coins from
which II was removed by President
Rooseyelts orders. The house com.
mittee on coinage. weights and meas.
ures has reported n bill providing for
restoration OF the motto and its per
mancnt retention. Indications are that
Il will pass both houses. President
Roosevelt will not veto any measure
OF this kind. and has so told several
OF his callers.
Representative James, who intro.
duced one Of the bills to restore the
motto, said hundreds of letters were
still coming in protesting against the
adjustment OF the motto.
Immediately after the new gold
pieces Of the Saint Gaudens design
were received from the Philadelphia
mint early in November last year, the
discovery was made that the motto
"In God We Trust had been omitted.

God to Be Restored to Nations Coins

The responsibility for the omission
was placed at the door OF President
Roosevelt. for only through an execn.
tive order can a change be made In
designs for coins. This responsibility
the president readily assumed, but,
when adverse criticism began TO come
from all quarters of the country and
religious and patriotic societies took
up the matter, he decided 10 issue a
statement setting forth his reasons
for the action.
In this statement the president said
there was no warrant OF law for the
inscription. Also he said that his own
feeling In the matter was due TO his
very firm conviction that to put such
motto on coins, or to use II in any
kindred manner, not only does no
good. but does positive harm, and is In
effect irreverence which comes dan
gerously close to sacrilege"
The president was firm that he
would not order the motto to be re-
placed unless directed to do so by
congress.
The presidents statement failed to
stem the tide OF adverse criticism, and
when congress convened numerous
bills and resolutions we're introduced
aud proposed to make II unlawful to
Issue coins without the inscription.

Rsrrlss a Iran for Game

Black hawberries are now furnish.
ing delicious meals for hunters in the
mountains. They are also being de-
voured by bears. and they are being
picked on the branches by coons and
opposums. Indeed the black hawber.
~ is one of the real food products OF
the woods, and there Is no danger
OF a lost person starving. You can.
not convince a mountaineer that the
haw is not a food. The only trouble
about II is that II takes a great many
berries to make n banquet. II Is the
thick. mealy flesh surrounding the
seed that Is eaten, and in some sec
lions housewives make them into a
sort of Jelly. Experienced hunters
make It a practice to look to- bears
and grouse in the vicinity of a elump
Of haw bushes. and generally succeed
in finding the game there. The DER.
ries grow In large clusters like elder
berries. and a quart can be picked In q
fsw minutes. --MinneapollS TribunA

the game and fish law provides no

u REPRESENTATIVE SCOTT Of Kan.
N sas. chairman of the house
committee on agriculture, has con-,
celved a novel plan which. he believes.
would enable the farmers Of the coun.
try to produce better and far larger
crops than heretofore.
Mr.. Scott's proposition involves the
establishment of 100 experimental
farms. OF one acre each. in every
county in a group of four western az.
riculturai states for the purpose of
giving the farmers a practical demon.
stration Of the best methods OF grow
ing different crops. II is proposed that
the lands for this purpose shall be
provided by the farmers themselves
and that they shall do the work of cul-
tivation under the direction of the
experts OF the department OF agri.
culture. No additional appropriation
from congress will be required TO test
Mr. SCOTS plan, Il Is explained, as the
agricultural department has the reQui'
