YET UNEXPLAINED

The published "reminiscences of
Carl Schurz and the memoirs of
0. O. Howard revive something
of the criticism of the battle of
Charlottesville. For all this,
however, we fail to see that any
new facts have been adduced
upon which we may re-arrange
and modify our criticism of that
historic battle.
Howard had been placed in
command of the Eleventh corps.
This was the smallest corps in
the army. 1t was but 10000
strong, and probably did not carry
into that battle more than 5000
men. 1t was composed, for the
greater part, of Germans and
had been in command of Siegel,
in whom the men reposed great
confidence. How much a change

NEW POSTAL LAW.

The United States Postal De
! partment has made new regula.
tions in regard to carrying sec.
ond-class mail matter (such as
newspapers, magazines, period.
Gals, etc. the same going into
effect January 1, 1908, and allow
ing publishers to April 1, 1908,
to prepare their subscription lists
in accordance with the new order
of things. The effect of the
change practically compels the
establishment of new relations
between the publisher and SUBJ
scriber of county papers,.
The departmentruling requires
that subscriptions entitled to the
second class postage rate shall
not be delinquent longer than the
following periods of time: =
Dailies within three months.
Tri-weeklies, within 6 months.
Semi-weeklies, within nine
months. .s
Weeklies, within one year.
The mails are not forbidden to
subscribers who are in arrears
longer than the time provided in
the new ruling, but these sub
scribers are placed in a separate
classification, requiring a higher
rate of postage, the rate being so
high that publishers could not
afford to send papers at the price
of subscription.
The reason given by the gov
ernment for making this order is

Mrs. Clara H. Waldo, in he,
afternoon talk before the Short
Course students at the OAC, very
pointedly stated the advantages
of more cooperation among the
women of the farm. Many ways
were mentioned in which the lot
of the farmers wife might be
made happier by little co opera
ton. J. At one home the sewing
for the neighbsrhood could be
done; at another the baking and
at another the laundering. This
plan would, greatly ecoromize
labor and give the farmers wife
a little time. for recreation or read
ing, for gardening or Horticulture.
If the bread didn't happen to be
baked just as mother baked it,
there would be the compensation
that the neighbors would get to-
gether more and come to feel
that there are other duties as we'll
as pleasures than the baking and
eating of bread. j.

i In Mr.. Shepard's talk at the
Short Course he made a strong
plea for the growing of Canada
field peas tor swine, He said
there was no better grain for feed
ing hogs, not excepting corn. In
the province of Ontario some
700, 900 acres of peas are grown,
largely for hogs, and the Canada
bacon is of high quality. Peas
will produce stronger, healthier
hogs than corn, and leaner meat.
The writer has seen 500 hogs sue
cesstully pastured On field of
ripe peas. Peas are known as
nitrogen gatherers, and if hogs
were allowed to harvest them the
land would very quickly be
brought under high state of fer
tility. Why not take Mr.. Shep-
ards hint and grow a better ar
ticle of bacon than is produced
in the corn states, and with
large enough supply packing
houses would be in order.

of commanders may have af-
fected the morale of the corps is
not known, but the boast of the
men, eve fights NIT Siegel, y
brought the stinging retort-
"and runs NIT Howard" f"
Howard was an abler and bet
ter approved soldier than either
Siegel who had commanded the
little corps or Schurz who evil
IDENTITY thought he was best fitted
to command it.
Howard was warned to be on
guard against a flank movement
by the Confederates. When the
movement was in progress and
he was advised of it he refused
to believe it true, and ever since
the battle he has sought refuge
behind Hooker's orders. We
cannot conceive Grant, Sherman,
Sheridan, Thomas, Logan nor.
even Fighting Joe Hooker"
failing to exercise their own dis
cretion in such a juncture. But
these were military geniuses.
Had Sedgwick with the magnifi-
cent Sixth corps; and other troops
under his command, promptly
and energeticallypushed forward,
after capturing Fredericksburg.
and joined the main army at
Charlottesville, Jackson's flank
ing movement would have been
too dangerous a piece of tactics
for that indefatigable commander
to have undertaken. But Sedg-
wick did not do so though it was
an important part of the plan Of
battle.
Military criticism has not yet
given satisfactory explanation
for the loss of this battle. 1t
possibly can not do 80 because it
cannot explain just why the
things which, made for failure
should have happened.
No other battle of the war was
SO skilfully and scientifically
planned. 1t was closely modelled
On one of Napoleon's victorious
battles. The number of troops
engaged, the movements, the
distances to be covered in march
es, the whole strategy and even
the battle tactics were in very
close accord with Napoleon's un-
der similar conditions.
When Hooker had perfected his
plan it was laid before President
Lincoln and his cabinet and
number of our best military men.
Hooker explained it in detail.
The military men examined it
carefully and critically. All
united in approving the plan and
it was adopted. At the closing
of the conference, Hooker said
Eyes, gentlemen ; God Almighty
himself cannot prevent me from
winning a victory.
There is little or no doubt that
this statement publicly made
years ago and never denied is
true. If so have we not found
why Charlottesville was a disas--
ter ? But this is not in the do
main of military criticism.

Dr.. Withycombe made an ar
gument in favor of the dairv
farmer keeping his own feed store.
He should produce all the food
necessary on the farm. The
speaker stated that the s lbs. of
vetch hay and 40 lbs of kale is
practically a balanced ration for
the COW and more profitable re-
suits can be secured on such
ration than to patronize the feed
stores.

A B4SELESS ASSUMPTION.

A BASELESS ASSU4HFI
2 An often repeated and alleged
objection to the tariff is that it
enables our manufacturers of ag-
ricultural implements to "hold
up" the American agriculturalist
for excessive prices.
This is intended to influence
American farmers to oppose pro-
lection, but, since it is merely a
baseless assumption, it fails to do
much more than to display their
ignorance or the demagogism of
him who makes the appeal.
y The facts are we manufacture
the greatest variety, the best
. made and the greatest labor-sav-
ing agricultural implements made
anywhere in the world. They
are the products of American in
ventive genius. No field for the
application Of new discoveries,
new inventions has received
greater attention by, and been so
alluring to inventive genius.
This is why we!surpass the rest
of the world in the manufacture
of agricultural machinery. We
have the field, we have the ge-
MUS and it would be strange if
we have not excelled.
But almost every labor-saving
and desirable agricultural ma
chine involves, in it's construction,
the use of many of the devices of
the American inventor, and he is
protected in the use of these by
letters patent. The manufac-
turer must control the use of
these either by outright purchase
or by paying a handsome royalty
to the inventor for the use of his
invention.
Examine our Combined Har-
vester and Threshers. They are
marvels of ingenuity, perfection
and simplicity. We wonder why
a machine of such apparent sim
picity of device and construction
should be so expensive. 1t is be-
cause it is the product of many
inventions for which the manu-
facturer must pay large sums. 1t
is true that having gained con-
troll of these he becomes mo-
nopolist, not because of our tar
iff laws.
Our copyright and patent laws
are our only monopoly creating
laws. The manufacturers of
agricultural implements have no
need for much, if any, protection
by tariff and as matter of fact
they practically have none. If a
better Harvester than we make
were imported it would only pay
20 per cent ad valorem duty.
But none are imported for none
are made.
Binding twine and the mate
rials of which it is made are on
the free list. If there is Bind
ing Twine Trust" it probably
proves that trade is not a
panacea for the evil of trusts.
1t is probable our manufactur.
ers sell mowers, reapers and
threshers which, by reason of re-
cent inventions have become un-
salable at home. to foreign buy
ers very cheap. He must be rid
of them, and Americans buy only
the latest improved.

WINGS PHILOSOPHY.
Farmers Get Most Out of Life
Other Interesting Items
From OAC.

Joseph E. Wing. one of the
best agricultural writer's in the
world, in an address at the Ore
gen Agricultural College recently
said:' 1'3
81 am proud of several things
that l can do. 1 can pack mule };
I can cut a tree so it will fall
where 1 want it to-mostly. I
can hew a plank straight; can
strike a drill all day without strik-
ing the other fellow; 1 can rig a
plow so you can hold it with the
thumb and first finger; 1 can walk
FIVE miles an hour; aud some other
things 1 can do I am proud of.
am p1ouder of the thingsI have
done than the things 1 have said.
1t takes more brains to rig plow
right than to do a problem in al
zebra. When you learn a thing
you want to do it, and the man
who gets the most out of life uses
his arm as we'll as his BRAIN"
If Mr.. Wings philosophy is
right, and it undoubtedly is, then
it is possible for the farmer to get
more out of life than any other
class, for brains and muscle are a
necessary part of the equipment
OF every good farm, and there is
abundant opportunity there for
the employment of both.

1000 LIVES LOST.
The TerrOrs OF Typhoon And Flood
In China.

Victoria, B. C. (By Cable) The
steamer Shinono, of the Japanese
line, which just arrived here, brought
news of another disaster through a
typhoon at Hankow following on
the disastrous freshet which involves
the loss of more than 1000 lives,
with the wrecking of 900 junks and
stranding of many steamers, includ-
ing several of the foreign river craft.
The typhoon came suddenly and
in a few hours reduced hundreds of
boats in the Kan River to splinters.
Steamers broke away from their
moorings and only those which could
get up steam quickly escaped. The
steamer Wu Saig was driven ashore.
The Kiang Foo, a paddle steamer,
and several other steamers were dam
aged.
The shores were thick with corpses
of river people Hundreds were re-
covered before the steamer left
Shanghai
News was also brought of a great
coal mining disaster in Kwang ST,
where 1000 lives were lost when
the mine took fire.

10 minutes, officially, before the
hands of the big, round clock in

In the House the closing hours
were characterized by singing OF

The excitement, which was great at
times, finally subsidized, and the ses-

The Senate was extremely quiet
during the closing hours, held to-

DEAD AT THE THROTTLE.
Overland Limited Sped 90 Miles An
Hour Past Danger Signals.

Chicago Especially The Overland
Limited, fastest train of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and st. Paul Rail-
road system, ran at full speed of
nearly 60 miles an hour over inter-
locking switches and past signals
near Byron, ILL.,, with Engineer AL
bert Gauvins lying dead on the cab
floor and no controlling hand on the
throttle, the train with a hundred
passengers abroad narrowly missing
a smashup.
Officials of the railroad heard the
story, as told by Fireman Michael
Nash. 1t proved frightful tragedy
had been averted as ny a miracle. The
train left Chicago on the journey to
San Francisco with Gauvins at the
throttle in apparently good health
Near Davis Junction, at Byron,
where the train slows down to cross
the right of way of another road
Fireman Nash noticed that the train
was flying across switches and
tracks at top speed, unmindful of
adverse set signals. Just as the
limited cleared the tracks of the 9TH
er road a heavy train thundered
across in the rear. Nash leaped back
into the engine cab and discovered
Gauvins' body lying on the floor.
The train was stopped and help
called.
An examination showed the en-
gineer was dead as the result of a
hemorrhage of the brain After
some delay another engineer was OBJ
tanned and the train proceeded. Gau-
wins had been in the service of the
road about % years.
