Public Press Criticised for Its Attitude on
Orthodoxy to the Neglect OF Science
and Truth.
(By Warren s. Dean.

1.-The main consideration with the state
and nation should be the raising up and ed
ucating Of body OF farmers who can farm
without destroying the fertility OF their
farms. That is the fundamental question.
But little can be done with the old farmer.
He has never made study OF the three
elements of soil fertility nitrogen, potash
and sulphate. His practice shows all over
the Union, that he hardly knows how To
care for barnyard manure
"But we can reach the boy, the farmer
that is to be- He has no prejudice against
the knowledge that comes in books and
papers. His mind is open to the impress
sions of scientific truth, if he can be put
under the press. The hope OF the future
of American agriculture lies IN the Ameri-
can farm boy. Old eyes look longingly on
the grand things he will be able to do i'll
the next quarter of a century, when knowl-
edge shall have increased thousand fold"
The above clipping goes to show us that
there are editors of publications willing to
admit there is no hope for improvement in
callings in producing the necessaries and
comforts Of life, until there is gain IN
knowledge, power to think, skill of action,

that sure sign of ungodliness 2"
And those same editors that go on and
hand out such mental dope, based on old
ignorance, will blandly tell their readers
i'll the other hand that the main considera-
ton i'll the state and nation is in educating
a body of people in useful work, in study
ing the three elements of soil fertility.
Perhaps the old farmers practice shows
all over the Union that he hardly knows
how to care for barnyard manure, but the
'facts remain clear to u.s. that the old
farmers crude form is based on an honest
foundation, working with the light they
have, in harmony with nature ; laws, trying
to produce the necessaries of life, and pay
ing their full share to the support of the
government. But on the other hand, what
are editors, as a rule, doing TO retain the
fertility of truth, reason and courage, and
stand for them9 Pandering to the "great-
est humbug ON earth" by giving space to
"we, us and the holy ghost to help en-
courage that system of mental slavery on
the people in every community, with no eff
fort made to show the contrast between
that system which evades payment on
their wealth for government protection,
and the old farmer who works hard for
what he gets.
The ''main consideration" ought to be
for an honest state and nation to raise up
and educate a body of editors who are not
in fear of truth and reason, and who will
try to reach the boys and girls who are
striving to be upright and honest, to think
for themselves, and investigate for the
truth which pertains to happiness and the
well-being of all in this life.

Picking, Sept 8.-Under instruc-
lions from st. Petersburg, NJ Koro-
tOvitz. the Russian minister to China,
will tomorrow for the second time
urge the foreign board to recognize
Russia's claim for representation in
+ the allotment of the loan of 100000
000for the construction of the Han
kow-Sze Chuen railroad. France is
said to be supporting Russian in this
course. st. Petersburg does not ac-
cept the Chinese contention that the
loan has been concluded
The Russian claims will have the
effect in principle of opening competi-
ton for the German share of the loan,
as the Germans are the only partici-
pants whose position is most protect
ed by the existing convention. 1t is
understood here that the Germans
constitute the strongest obstacle to
the signing of a loan agreement by
China and the United States, an es-
sential to the American equality in
participation. and the completion of
such an agreement is the present
bone of contention.
The influence of Grand Chancellor
Chang Chi Tung with the German
bankers shows no signs of abate-
ment and the British and French
bankers declare it is impossible for
them to alter the German attitude
1t is believed that French interests
are now seeking a degree of partici-
patton in Chinese financial affairs
equal to that for which American
interests are striving.

TO UNvE|[ SEWARD
STATUE

Seattle, Sept S-Two generations
of the family of William H. Seward
The famous secretary of state under
President Lincoln. to whom the chief
credit is given for the Alaska pur-
chase, will witness the unwilling of
the Seward bronze statue in front OF
the New York building at the Alaska
Yukon-Pacific exposition. September
10th. They are General William n.
Seward, son of the secretary of state,
and his son. William II. Seward, Jr.,
who arrived at the exposition recent
ly from the Seward home in Albany,
n. Y
The statue Of Seward which will be
unveiled is said to be the best like
ness of the secretary ever made. In
order to secure this, the sculptor,
Richard E. Brooks of New York,
spent several months in studying the
life and character of Seward and he
was aided in this work by Frederick
w. Seward and General William H.
Seward, who as Stewards sons, were
members of his household at the time
of the Alaska purchase. The statue
was cast in France and brought back
to the United States recently. While
in Paris it created much favorable
comment on account of its artistic
beauty and lifelike appearance.
1t is an interesting coincidence
that the New York building at the
exposition is an exact reproduction OF
the Seward mansion at Albany, n. Y.
and it is in front of this structure that
the statue will be unveiled and To-
Gated.

ployed as newspaper reported and a
few years later was married to a
cousin of Miss Hatfield. The latter

sagement was soon announced. After
