For Rural tIplift.

At the annual dinner of the internf- . tional committee of the Young Men $ Christian Association, In the Astoria, last Thursday night, ] as. k. Garfield , son of President Garfield, member of the Roosevelt Country i.ife Gommis- on the farm.
 "Ouf country life has been neglected in more senses than one, he said. siWhile the movements for social bet terment have been working for uplift and improvement In the cities, in the country there has been stagnation and decline. I have reached my conclu. sions after long and careful inyestiga- ton of the subject. Those who have been born and reared in the country know too well that the life there is q dishesrtening life. mot an inspiring one.
 Those of us who have lived in the country, those who have been there If only for weeks at n time, have been enough in touch with the spirit of ru- ral life to know it's lack of opportuni- ty. We can sec why boys leave the farm. The farm Is place of drudgery, when 1t should be n place of beauty. It has lost it's hold on the boys because of :.hsi desdening drndgery,a a < He continued
 "rhe country school, with its de- l...r h,. hn n nj ' fa- tion of the city schools, with their efii- cient instructors and their up-to- date methods, nor has IL the healthy tone IL had in the days of these lads fathers, when the schools were crowded. There Is no more vicious association than k often found in the country school.
 Our problem, then, in this Christian Association work for the country boys, Is to give to the country boy the adNan- tages which the city boy has. Our sug- gestion k to organize associations by counties. The secretary of the county association should be n man who knows how to lire the heart of the country boy to know more and to be more than he k today. The country boy needs physical education as well as the city boy, Following the piow is work, not play, and II will not give him an all- around development.
 There Is need, too, for the religious work of the Association. Unfortunate. ly the churches have not been able to gel hold of the boys, II should be our aim to get hold of the boys and arouse their religious natures, mol through Sunday meetings, but as part of their daily life.
 Senator Eliha Root spoke with ap. proval of the work of The Association. al must confess that 1 had no idea that the Young Men's Christian Asso. citation had grown to he such an enor- nous institution. IL k surely won. derful work =

The basis of the defense made by
the Gingles girl, who was on trial for
stealing lace from Miss Barrette, was
that Miss Barrette and others had

HARD FIGHT ON QUESTION

Friends Of Concerns Involved Sought
to Prevent Action on Point Of Or
der, but the Committee on Rules
Gets Busy and Brings in a Resolu-
ton, Which Is Adopted, Making the
Prohibition in Order.
Washington, July 21.-Bonding COM
panies must return to rates of 1908 If
they hope to get any business from
officers of the government occupying
positions of trust. The urgent de.
f1ciency bill contains an express pro.
hibition against the payment of the
higher premiums determined upon
last year by the companies. 49,.
The friends of the bonding com.
panies, however, sought in the house
to have the prohibition removed on a
point of order. Their efforts were
fruitless, for the committee on rules
got busy and brought in a resolution
making the prohibition in order. The
resolution was adopted by goodly
majority. -....
Bitter denunciation was heaped by
Mr.. Smith Qa.) upon the bonding com
panies, which, he said, had entered
into combination to raise their pre-
miums 500 per cent.
Opposing the provision A. M.

was one simply to legalize boycott

the country and compel officers of the
government to go back to the weaker
surety companies or else the notori.

Mr.. Gill (Md.) attacked the para.

MANY SCHEDULES
I Still ! IN DI;S''|'Pu1E
Tariff Conferees Far Apart
on Important Sections.
OUTLOOK NOT so HOPEFUL

Stubborn Fight Expected on Wood
Pulp, Print Paper, Lumber, Hides,
Iron Ore and Other So Called Raw
MateriaIs-Many Provisions Of the
Cotton and Metal Schedules Remain
Unsettled. :"
Washington, July 21.-Heretofore
the conferees on the tariff have been
putting aside the hard problems, but
now they have started with the inten-
ton of settling disputes promptly in
so far as such course is possible.
Some of the conferees, however, are
In far from hopeful mood. :
No votes have yet been taken, but
It is understood that that stage must
soon be reached. Most of the differ
ences left to be arranged are funda-
mental in character and it is believed
can only be settled by the ballot.
Only the Republican members Of
the two houses are sitting and the
representatives of each of the branch
ss vote separately. AS there are five
senators and six representatives on
the conference the votes Of three SEN
ators and four members of the house
will be necessary to carry any propo-
sition. The disposition on the part Of
the conferees of each house Is to al
low the majority to rule and it is ap-
pretended that there may not be so
much diffculty in reaching a conclu-
sion In either branch as there may be
in bringing the two branches together.
Wood pulp, print paper and lumber,
to say nothing of hides, iron ore and
other so called raw materials, are re-
ceiving the most serious attention
from the conferees. The paper and
pulp fight bids fair to be especially
stubborn.
Differences on Cotton Schedule.
Considerable progress has been
made on the cotton schedule, but hos
iery and a number of other leading
items Of cotton manufacture are caus-
ing the tariff arbitrators concern. The
drawback provision is practically the
| only important administrative feature
that remains unsettled.
Although the rates of duty have
been fixed on practically all of the
steel products there has been a pro,
test against the increased rate on
structural steel punched for use. 1t
| was thought that compromise on
lead and its products was In view, but
this schedule has also proven difficult
of adjustment The duties on zinc in
blocks and pigs, which we're increased
by the senate over the house rates. is
another matter which is delaying the
settlement of the metal schedule.
An agreement as to whether there
should be reciprocity provision for
the free entry of agricultural machin-
cry does not seem to be near at hand
and the same may be said with regard
to the differences existing between
the house and senate regarding the
rates on window glass, the increased
rates en- gloves made by the house
bill and the rates on barley and bar
ley malt ..
Wide differences of opinion were en-
countered in the days deliberations
and little progress was made, although
several minor paragraphs we're dis

Atlanta, Ca, July 21.-If a bill in.

Representative Vinson of Baldwin
county is passed the public schools
maintained for the education Of the
negro in Georgia will be practically
abolished. The measure provides that
all appropriations for school purposes
shall be divided between the white
and negro schools in proportion to the
taxes paid by each. Inasmuch as there
is little revenue derived from negro
taxpayers this would cut the negro
school funds to little or nothing.
