From Lamar Sparks.

A circular severely attacking
Senator Guggenheim was mailet
broadcast over the state last week.
The circular told good many
unwelcome truths about the sme.-
ter trust senator and the party
from which he purchased his po-
sition. Its effect was greatly
weakened, however, by the fact
that the circular was anonymous
and that it attacked Guggenheims
nationality and religion.,An anon
ymous assault of this kind is the
essence of cowardice, and tends
to defeat its aim by making
friends for the attacked party
among all who believe in decency
and fair play.

esejsty Of School Children Organized

To instill the principles Of good citi-
zenship among children Junior civics
league made up OF boys and girls who
are students at the Foster street school
has been formed in Evanston. Ill.
The youngsters. all of whom are un-.

on themselves the task Of assisting In
the Identification of the Fifth ward. In
which the school is located. They.
have assisted in the cleaning up Of
streets. alleys, back lots and yards and
have rescued 4 large part Of the ward
from the typical spring time dirt and
disorder.
Committees from the leagpe have
visited Street Commissioner Housed
and been directed by him against some
Of the places in the ward which were.
most in need Of attention. One of the
plans Of the league for the spring Is
the planting of flowers and vines along
unsightly fences and walls. and the
ward as a result promises to be one OF
the most attractive in Evanston.
The league was organized under the
direction of Miss Ellen E. Foster.
principal of the school. 1t not only in
terests itself in such purely civic mat
tiers AZ cleaning up the ward. but has
debates. lectures and outdoor meets
and games. 70 that not only the mind
but the bsdy is developed.
Practically every boy and girl In the
Foster street school is a member. The
roll IL thus large enough to enable the
organization to take hold Of large
tasks and accomplish them. Miss Fos-
ter believes that all the children who
come under the right sort Of in6sence

cHILDRENs HIRING FAIR.
Boys and Girls for Farm Labor at the
Friedrichshafen Market.


Some 800 children in the care Of a
country priest passed through here last
week on their way to the annual chill
dren's hiring market at Friedriehshafen
in Wurtemburg. At this market, which
is held at the end of March every year,
whole troops of boys and girls from II
to IA years of age, coming from the
Tyrol and NOrarlberg, are hired by the
farmers and peasants.
They stand in rows in the market
place in the early morning for the in
spection of their prospective masters.
The term of service is seven months and
the wages paid for that period range
from r los to IA. The feast of st.
Jude, October %, marks the end of their
service, and they are sent back TO their
homes.
Their employment is of varied char
acter, minding the cattle. homework, and
work in the stables and on the land.
1t is to be feared that in toe many in
stances these half grown children are
very badly treated, and abuses and scan
dals are not infrequently reported. Pos
sibly in this, the Emperor's jubilee year,
which his majesty has. so to speak,
dedicated to the cause Of children, some
thing may be done to save these little
country boys and girls from being sent
to this market at Friedrichshafen.--

APPLE BLOSSOMS.

Apples blossoms budding, blowing
In the soft May air;
Cups with sunshine overtiowipg-
Flashes of fragrance, drifting, showing,
ShOwering everywherel
Fairy promises, outgushing
From the happy treesi
White souls into loye-light blusbing-
Heavenly thoughts to utterance rushing
Are We not like these2
Such an overflow of sweetness
Needs the heart of spring:
In her wealth of bloom is meeIness
Though to the ripe fruits completeness
All she may not bring.
Words are more than idle seeming;
blossoms of good Will;
What she would do, love Is dreaming;
What she can. ashamed of schemipg,
Cramped and stinted still.
Apple blossoms, hillowy brightness
On the tide OF May,
oh. TO wear your rose-touched Wilderness
Flushing into bloom with lightness,
To give life away.

Canada,s GroundIess Fears.

The expeditions of Capt. Bernier. the
Canadian who for several sea sons has
been pushing little steamer northward
through Hudson's bay for the purpose
of hosting the Canadian flag on barren
islands capped with ice and snow, seem
to have been inspired by something far
more serious than spreadeagle patriotism.
A statement by Premier Laurier in the
Canadian Parliament indicates that the
Canadian government has shared Ber-
nier'S fears that American whalers who
have been hosting Old Glory on the icy
outposts of discovery are menacing Do
minion sovereignty in that region.
Sir Wilfred admitted this when in ex-
planning an appropriation of $4,000 for
the Canadian mounted police he said
stationed in far northern portions OF the
Dominion, in the vicinity of Hudson bay,
for the purpose of maintaining Canadian
jurisdiction against the Yenturesome
American whalers. Remarking upon the
wisdom of the appropriation for such
outpost duty, the Premier declared that
recent maps issued at Washington show
that Americans are taking possession
of everything in sight" and giving names
to various islands which convey the
| impression that they belong to the
| United States. incidentally, Sir Wilfred
remarked that if Canada had sent a
| force of mounted police into the Yukon
regions twenty years ago she would
have more territory there than she has
now.
| The fear entertained at Ottawa that
/ the United States is coyertly sanction
ing territorial exploitation along the Arc
| tic sea is wothout foundation in anything
more serious than the privilege of ex
| plorers TO name new islands and head
lands. Commander Peary has planted
the American flag all along the west and
north coast of Greenland, leaving pieces
| of the flag in cairns, with records of his
| achievements, but the United States
| lays no claim to an inch of Greenland
soil. The whalers along the Arctic coast
| have been doing something of the same
kind. They have claimed no territory
and have had no intention Of doing so.
| The remark that Canada lost ground
| by not having had mounted POI
| lice in the Yukon region twenty years
| ago is an implication that the Americans
have possessed themselves of territory
beyond the original boundaries of Alaska
when it was a Russian possession. AS
| the Americans have stood for the recog-
milton of the maps which were in ex-
istenee when Alaska was purchased, the
remarks that Canada could have had
| more territory in the Far Northwest had
she sent in police to claim it may be
interpreted to imply that British terri
| tory might have been extended on the
principle that possession is nine points
of the law. Evening Wisconsin, Mil
