TilIman ON the Nomination.

In speaking of the action of the
National Democratic Convention
Senator Tillman says if the Republi-
cans nominate Secretary Taft for
President, the Democrats will and
probably should nominate Bryan,
who, he believes, would beat the
Secretary at the polls. If, on the
other hand, the Republicans should
get into a tangle, out of which
should come the nomination OF
Roosevelt then the Democrats
would do well to put Mr.. Bryan aside
and select some other candidate who
could offer opposition to the Presi-
dent in his policies. This view is
based on the argument that Mr..
Bryan has so fully endorsed the
Roosevelt program that he is inhib-
tied from joining issue with MIR.
Roosevelt as a candidate.
The Charleston Post thinks there
is a good deal in this view, and says
eff Mr. Roosevelt should be the nom
inee of the Republicans the Demo
Gratis will have to get away from
Bryan and Organism and they would
do best, IN all likelihood, with a con-
servative candidate, of the type of
Judge Gray, Of Delaware, or of Jud-
son Harmon, Ohio. Mr.. Harmon,
by the way, with his record of the
recommendation of the prosecution
of Paul Marion and other officials OF
the Santa Fe road, as rebaters,
which recommendation was rejected
by the President, who had appoint
ed Mr.. Harmon to follow the trail
of the railroad offenders, would
make a very good anti-Roosevelt
candidate.
The Post says "the probabilities
are very strong that the Republi'
cans will nominate Mr. Taft ano
the chance of Mr.. Roosevelt
again heading the ticket is growing
less each day. Senator Tillman'
view that Mr.. Bryan would be the
most available candidate against the
present Secretary of war is, there
fore, the most practical estimate Of
the situation. 1t will likely come
out that way, and we believe thai
he is right in his belief that Mr.
Bryan would, in that contest win al
the polls.

Monument to Gen. Lee.

Representative Scott Ferris, one
of the youngest men in the house
and representing the youngest state
in the union, Oklahoma, has intro
duced a joint resolution providing
for the erection of a monument to
the memory of Gen. Robert E. Lee
in Washington.
The capital city as is we'll known,
is so arranged that numerous parks
are formed by the intesection OF
streets and avenues, and in many in
stances, where as many as three or
four thoroughfares intersect circu-
lar parks are formed, adding mater
tally to the beauty and the conven-
ience of the city.
Seats are provided in almost all OF
the parks, for the convenience OF
the public. From the earliest
spring days till late in the fall, from
early morning till late in the evening
the parks are filled to overf1owlng
with nurses and children, the latter
forming probably the happiest ele-
ement of the capital city's popula-
ton.
In the center of almost every palk
is the statue of some eminent Amer
lean, or of a foreigner who was a
friend of America. such as La Fay
ette and Rochambeau. The resolu-
ton of Mr.. Ferris proposes the erec-
ton of such a statue to the memory
of Lee, who is now regarded north,
south, east and west as one of the
greatest of Americans,
While it is not at all likely that
anything will be done about it at
the present session of congress, which
unfortunately happens to be before
the election" F" the sentiment set In
motion by this resolution will in all
probability result in the erection,
sooner or later, of such monument
to the memory of the Confederacy's
great chieftain

Will Obey the Bosses.

News comes from Washington
that William Dulaney, the Presl-
dents colored messenger, whose
daily duty it is also to shave the Pres
ident has been transferred from
these lowly duties to,the navy de-
partment and placed in the office OF
the auditor of that department at a
salary of $1,4O0 year. President
Roosevelt expects to go to Oyster
Bay for the summer about June Is,
and when he leaves the city, Delaney
will Law aside his razor and will take
up his pen as clerk in the auditors
office. He succeeds a white clerk
who was reduced from $1,000 to $500
a year to make room for him. The
President is doing all he can to line
up the negroes for Taft, and no
doubt he will succeed. We even ex-
pect to see Capers' "heinous ba-
boon" line up for the Roosevelt can
didate. The average Republican
negro can be kicked and cuffed
about by the bosses between elec-
tions, but when it comes to electlng
delegates to conventions he does

How to Cook Rice.

Few housewives understand how to
cook rice so that it puffs into snowy
mass, each kernel distinct. have
found a way, says writer In Har-
per's Bazar First wash it thorough
" through several cold waters. rub
bing the kernels between the hands.
This is to remove all the loose -four
on the outside of the grains. After
the water runs clear turn the rice into
a colander and drain; then put 1t into
a deep stewpan, allowing one quart Of
boiling water to cup of washed rice.
Add a teaspoonful of salt and allow 1t
to come to good boil. Cook steadily
for twenty minutes, lifting the rice
occasionally with fork to prevent its
sticking. Shake the kettle also for
the same purpose, but never stir or
mash with a spoon. Take 1t from the
fire, pour off the water if any is left
and place it on the back of the stove
in the oven or even over a pot Of hot
water until it finishes swelling. Cook
ed in this way you will find the rice
plump, light and white, each grain
distinct and separate.

How to Take Bran Baths.

Bran baths are said to be good for
nervous people. They have an ex-
tremely softening effect upon the skin.
Ordinary bran may be bought at a
feed store and used as desired. A
Gheesecloth bag containing about
quart and q half or two quarts should
be filled mediumly full with bran.
This bag will do for two baths The
water should be quite warm, and the
bag should be put into it and thor
oughly soaked and squeezed until the
water is brown and Gull Of bubbles
One should stay in the bath for few
minutes only. Massage of the entire
body after the bath is beneficial, but
one should rest for at least ten min
utes between the massage and bath.

A Monster Trust.

Zone of the hydra-headed mon
sters that have been tightening
their hold upon the people" j" was the
way Representative Watkins, of
Louisiana, referred to the paper
trust, during a speech in the house.
when he advocated tbe removal Of
the duty on wood pulp.
The newspaper. he argued, was
one of the main civilizing agencies
of the world, and in this country,
"sheds light in 100000 homes, "
while to-day, he said, the newspaper
industry was working in harmony
with organized labor 'its operating
expenses are higher, because union
labor is more expensive than
unor ganized labor was few
years ago.
There was, he charged. a tariff on
everything that went to make a
newspaper. "This," he said, lis
purely and simply donation to the
paper trust and a tax on the news
papers and other printing interest
of the country" The newspapers,
he declared, had been patient and
long-suffering. "As the moulders
of public opinion" he said, "they
could almost cause a revolution if
they would
If the government continued to
perpetuate monopolies, he said, we
will bid farewell to state rights, to
individual liberty, to the equality OF
all men before the law, and humble
ourselves in sack cloth and ashes
before the plutocracy of the coun-
try, and, as supplicants, bow down
defore the throngc of our rulers. "

How to Clean Wall Paper.

Wall paper that has a smoky or
grimy look can be frightened with a
powder preparation which frequently
removes even very Objectionable
marks. Make mixture Of equal parts
of cornstarch, whiting and fuller's
earth and with q soft cheesecloth or
any cotton rag dip it into the powder
and carefully 60 over the paper, ruD-
bing vigorously, but not enough to In
lure the print. Change the cloth as 1t
gets badly soiled. after which wipe the
walls with large pieces Of cotton rags
or cheesecloth. An old worn table
cloth torn into pieces will do for dust
cloths. For very delicate tints put the
powder in a gauze bag-an old piece OF
yelling will do-and carefully wipe
down the walls with the powder bag
Put newspapers on the floor to catch
the dust which falls. A thin paste OF
fullers earth and ammonia will often
remove bad grease marks. Cover the
SPOT. but do not rub it. When dry
carefully brush off the dust.

How to Paper Calcimined Walls.

Rooms whose walls have been white
washed or calcimined present a dit1'
cult problem when one wishes to paper
them. The usual method is to size the
walls with a sticky preparation Of mo-
lasses, vinegar, milk or glue to "kilp'
the lime so that the paper will stick.
A much better way that has proved
perfectly satisfactory is to simply wet
up the usual paste with vinegar In
stead Of water and add 5 cents worth
Of glue for each ordinary sized room.
Brush the walls well with dry broom
to remove any dust or loose particles
put on the paper in the usual way and
he assured that it will stay there.

Living at Home.

Under the above caption the JEFF
ferson Citizen says suppose every
farmer in the entire South should
make up his mind to live at home?
That is to say suppose he should de-
termine to raise all that his family
required as food, all the corn, fod-
der, peas, hay, cotton seed, and
OF ,er supplies and produce necces-
sary to carry on his business as a
farmer. What would be the result?
Try it one year and we venture the
assertion that you will try it again.
Raise what you need to eat, plant a
small cotton crop, and let your cot
ton as far as possible represent what
you will spend for clothes and those
things that you cannot make or
raise on your farm. If you will do
this you will soon see way in which
YOU may become independent. Far
mers who have tried this plan have
succeeded and you can do the same
Think of the successful farmers
around you and you will find they
have already adopted this plan
Every word of the above Is as true
as preaching, and should the sug-
eestion of The Citizel be carried
out we would in a few years have
the richest country Oh TIE face
Of the earth. Our farmers could
then sell or hold their cottcl az it
suited them.

How to Test Potatoes.

To test potatoes cut the raw vege-
table in two and rub the halves to-
gether. If the moisture on rubbing is
great enough to drop the potato Will be
soggy and set when cooked. A potato
that will be dry and mealy when
cooked will give a good rich froth'
while poor one will show only wa
terry froth by the same rubbing action
Moreover, the two pieces or halves will
stick together if the potato is good
one. OF course the whole process is to
test the amount of starch in the pota
to, and the more starch the better the
potato.
