CAPT. 7 S. S. SMITH s. Ut t !.
Is the New Commander Of Com.
pany F, Second Regiment,
N. n. G.
Election Held tuesday Evening;
c. B. Ward is First
Lieutenant

At the close of the regular drill of
Company F on Tuesday evening oc.
CURED the election of captain to
succeed CAPITA. Schaefer, who has
been appointed on field staff with the
rank of major. First Lieut.. S. S.
Smith was chosen unanimously to
fill the vacancy, and second Lieut.. G..
B. Ward was advanced to first lieuten-
ant, and First Sargent O. F. Blood
was elected second lieutenant. This
causes vacancy in the ranks of the
non-commissioned officers, which
will be filled by appointment, and
will probably cause an: advancement
all along the line.
Maj. W. T. Mollison, of Faribault,
was present at the drill and made an
unofficial inspection of the company
and found the organization in such
excellent condition that he stated he
would recommend that his report be
accepted as the official inspection
which was scheduled for some time
later.
After the election at the armory the
company repaired to the Western
house, wher banquet was held ,
which proved a very enjoyable affair.
About fifty covers were laid. Maj.
B. F. Thurber of this city and Maj.
W. T. Mollison, of Faribault, were
ests of honor. Speeches we're made
by several of those present. Major
Mollison complimented the company
very highly on high standard of eff
cienc y attained, and spoke an encour-
aging word for the future.
Company F is a little more than
two years old, and during it's short
career has made a record that has
been the envy of many an Older organ
ization. The credit Tor bringing it to
its present high standard belongs
mainly to Capt. Smith, who as first
lieutenant has practically had full
charge of the company sinceits organi-
zation, and his elevation to the cap
taincy is fitting recognition of faith
full and efficient service. First Lieut.
Ward aud Second Lieut.. Blood are
both veterans Of the Spanish war, and
have both done good service in the
company. Company F is an organi-
zation in which every one in Worth
ington takes pride, and We hope ii
will have along and honorable ca
reef. ~.

Sabbath day to keep it holy; Owe no
man anything but to love one an

the sanctity of the family circle, re-
spect for the rights of others, honesty
and integrity in dealing, sobriety,
and in fact every thing that tends to
build up society and insure the hap
piness and prosperity of the people, is

precept and by example, sto follow in
the footsteps of the Master, and they
are urged to avoid evil thoughts and
purposes as they would pestilsnce.
In just so far as the teaching Of the
Sunday Sunday is observed and fol-
lowed, does the quality of citizenship
Improve. In a mind filed with the.
gospel teaching there is little room
for strife, war, theft. murder, drunk
eness, gambling,- divorce, swindling,
and such like, any more than there is
room for weeds in a field we'll seeded
to wheat Sabbath School scholars
too often fail to appreciate their op-
portunities, too eften fail to respond
to effort in their behalf, and turn out
badly in spite of these efforts, never
theless in the great majority of cases
they are the better citizens because
OF the trend given to their lives by
Sunday School influences. The
logical deduction from all this is that
as business proposition, money,
time, effort, spent in Sunday School
work is a paying investment, if you
consider only the life which now is.
AS a matter Of right then, as a matter
OF business expediencv, every citizen
ought tc encourage this work in every
way. If you desire security, safety,
comfort, con venience and general we'll
being, at home and while travelling
about the country. then as one means
of accomplishing your desires encour-
age the Sunday School. One who is
brought up in the Sunday School will
because of it, if he becomes an en-
ployer of labor b. more considerate,
kind and generous in dealing with
his employe. If a laborer-- he will be
more faithful and moro considerate
Of the interests Of his employer. If
a merchant he will be more likely to
give honest weight measure. IF a.
county, state orsnational employe he
will be more likely TO give faithful
and disinterested service. In fact,
while the Sunday School by no means
furnishes insurance Eagainst moral
detection and wrong doing, yet it is.
true that whatever is taught there is.

ldiscernment between right and wrong

the benefit of the:little ones. Surely,
you say, there is no need tor them to
go astray in the face of all these
agencies for good. Unfortunately
however, other agencies are constant
ly operating in the opposite objection
Satan is active and tireless, evil exam
pies are multiplied on every hand,
making sin appear attractive and evil
to appear good. Temptations beset
the young on every hand. They are
persuaded that what they see others
do is allowable and proper. NUM-
cipal corruption, grating so called,
gambling of various kinds from a
church lottery down, bribery, and
other vices have become fashionable;
yellow covered literature is sown
broadcast over the land until by
many Of our boys. Cole Younger and
Wild Bill are looked up to and more
highly appreciated than our wisest
and most respectable and law abid-
ing citizens. Wear constantly being
told by men and women who ought
to know better, that right and exped-
iency are not synonymous terms, that
there are times when it is impolite,
not to say impossible, to be honest
and truthful; that the idea of ssdoing
right though the heavens fall" may
do very we'll as pulpit maxim, but
is impractical and Incompatible with
every day living. Now because of
these adverse influences, and because
of the impressibitlity of the child
nature and the readiness with which
the child mind appropriates whatever
| is brought before it, we should in
justice to the country and to the
children, arouse ourselves to see to it,
that the mind food is healthful and
constructive, and not debillitating
and destructive. As to the different
sources of this food supply, the home

fective teaching, and would do SO
were it not that parents are too busy
to devote the necessary time to the
children. The material wants of the
family demand SO much time and
thought that the mental and spiritu
al necessities are to a large extent lost

not realize how rapidly the child
mind develops, how quickly it takes

the child, being to a considerable de-

Special to Daily Leader

Special to Daily Leader.
St Louis, Mo-. April 13.-The pro
hibition question is worrying st. Louis
to such an extent that the interests
connected with the brewrries are
circulating monster petitions
The Willingness Of the brewers to be
good is always expressed when they
are in trouble, but the minute the trou-
Bile ends they are as active as ever.
They htve established bureaus to fight
prohibition and restriction in every
form aud other bureaus 10 propose
restrictions as a substitute Tor prohi-
bition.
simultaneously there has been or
ganizcd hi ST. Louis an association for
Istricter regulation of the liquor traffic
as an offset to prOnibibion.
The Cause Of the Excitement.
The excitement now is probably due
to the fact that there is to be a dem
ocratic state convention In jefferson
City May 90 The convention really is
! to select delegates TO the democratic
national convention and ordinarily
would deal with the national ques-
tions. but there is nothing in the call
10 prevent a declaration on the prohi-
bition question. The republicans only
kept it out of their platform by making
fight and compelling their candidates
for delegates who were identified with
! the liquor interests to withdraw. Il is
the democrats to a large extent, who
are taking the lead for prohibition in
the country and the liquor men are
lafraid they will insist ON taking a vote
Ion the question.
Published as Advertising.
The petitions, with hundreds of
names are published in st. Louis
newspapers apparently as advertising.
They continue this argument in behalf
! of the breweries
We are heartily i'm favor of regu-
latng the saloon. Orderly proprietors
welcome that course; no one else
should be heard. We have no pet
Theory to advance, but we insist that
the state must exercise general control
for the protection of the public In
view OF the confesedly unsatisfactory
state of the law we are prepared to en-
icourage any intelligent legislation that
is based upon actual experience at
home or abroad. We will support any
lplan that is calculated TO cut down
a dispr0portionate number OF saloons

the responsibility of the proprietor.
| The saloon keeper must be out of poll
tics, and any saloon keeper that can
mot preserve good order must be put

Special to Daily Leader.
Washington. d. c.. April 13.--In Ok
lahoma generally there is consider
able misunderstanding about the hab-
its of the boil weevil. the ravager Of
the cotton crop. and many fallaoious
suggestions are proposed from time to
time to control the spread of the pest.
This is true pretty generally in the
South whore the weevil has made his
presence felt The supposition exists
that the weeHl is attracted TO lights,
A number of machines based on this
idea have been constructed. The pos
sibility of attracting the boll weevil to
lights was one of the first matters TO
be investigated by entomologists on
ore night il is said trap lanterns cap
tured 2l.i92 insects. but Of this mum
Der not a single boil weevil could be
found The lanterns had been placed
in the midst of the field where weev-
lis were abundant yet none of the
pesky creatures were inquisitive
enough 10 take look at Mr. Lantern
Since that time other investigators
have looked into the matter carefully
Lights have been burning in cotton
fields. In no single instance has \
specimen of a boil weevil been cap
tured although thousands of insects
F, have been taken. The public misap-
lprehension about the possibility Of
capturing the boil wosvil with lights
is due that a somewhat similar insect

| Sulphur Not Remedy.
The old idea, the fallacy OF which
has been explained repeatedly by en-
tomologists for the past fifty years.
| that sulphur can be forced into the
plants to make them immune from i'm
sect attack, sometimes creeps out with
reference to the boil weevil The
method il is said by people who
should know is entirely useless Sui
I phur Is not soluble i'm either water or
acids II is consequently impossible
for 1t to be taken up by the plants.
In chemical combinations in which
forms only could be assimilated by the
plants, there is nothing TO Indicate
that it would have special insecticidal
! properties. The usual form In which
lsulphur has been recommended IN
Texas is that the seed should be
soaked before planting in water con
tanning II. Money used in this mat
tier, according TO government experts,
lis entirely wasted.
Undoubtedly the most important
lfallaeious remedy that has ever been
proposed for the boil weeul is Paris
green which has received a great deal
of attention in louisiana Mississippi
and Texas in late years. The urgent
ldemand for a specific remedy on the
lpart of the planters was evidenced by
1.-THE extensive use Of this substances. At
lleast twenty-five carloads were used IN
Texas in three months. A portion Of
the great attention Paris green at-
itracted was due 10 the fact that early

Lon v. Smith, now in school at ST.
Marys, Kansas, has received word from
Senator Thomas T. Gore that he has
been made the alternate appointee for
the naval school, at Annapolis. The
lad, but sixteen years OF age, was a
page in the territorial legislature when
Senator Gore was a member of that
body and the Lawton man assured the
boy that he would, if ever sent to
Washington, appoint him to some
place and the letter apprising him of
the selection was the FIRST intimation
