ANIMAL LEAGUE TORN
BY INTERNAL STRIFE
Four Directors Withdraw and Issue
Indignant Letter-Miss Matthew
sons Supporters Stubbornly

The Humane Animal league has add
ed another volcanic outburst to its Of
fetal record Not content with oustlng
George Lawson as assistant secretary
and poundmaster of the league, dlrec-
tors who have been opposing him Vot-
ed this week to declare him no longer
a member of the organization. The ac-
ton has precipitated another outpreak'
and four members of the board OF oil
rectors have resigned the other direc-
tors accepting their designations.
The four directors who withdrew
Mrs. George Rudy, DR.. W. A. Lamp,
Fred F. Wheeler and Mrs. Lulu p. Lit
tle-Wrote jointly letter to that sec
ton of the directorate adverse to Mr.
Lawson denouncing the action in de-
claring Lawson not a member as ty-
rannicaI and unjust. The letter reads
like one of President RooseVelt's mes
saees on the order of business for the
st. Ananas club and ascribes the
trouble to Miss Helen MattheWson,
president of the league.
It is claimed by the retiring directors
that the presidents attitude has made
their further continuance in office i'm
possible. The directors who did not re-
sign, but who met and accepted the
RESERVATIONS of the other four, are Miss
MattheWson's friends and they take
her view of the case.
So far the four directors who
marched out have taken no other ac-
ton than to write the letter of indig-
nation. Matters at the leagues office
in the Laughlin building are expected
to remain comparatively quiet unit
the annual meeting in May. Meantime
both sides-Or rather all five or siN
sides involved from the first scrap
are preparing their ammunition for
furious conflict on the regulation Of
the city's dog catching.

the case of S. p. Clark, formerly pro-
prietor of the lamented Old Heidelberg

tered objection to the claim of the
Maier Brewing company which
amounts to more than $4,000. The
ground of the objection is that the
contract between the brewing COM
pany and the bankrupt, whereby he
was to sell the company's beer ex-
clusively, was illegal as being in re-
straint of trade and tending toward
the suppression of free competition

SPERRY PRAISED
FOR HIS VOYAGE
ROOSEVELT WRITES ADMIRAL
APPRECIATlVE LETTER
President Declares Warshps Were
Returned from World Cruise
Without Scratch
on Them

WASHINGTON, March 3.-"Not
ship has had a scratch says President
Roosevelt in approving Admiral
Sperry's command of the Atlantic fleet
on its cruise.
Secretary Newberry adds that the
trip reflected great credit on the entire
navy, and Admiral Sperry, in acknowl-
edgement, pays tribute to his officers
and men.
The correspondence was made public
today.
President Roosevelt's letter to Ad-
miral Sperry follows:
"Sir-I desire to express my earnest
and hearty approval of the manner IN
which you have exercised the command
of the Atlantic fleet. You have brought
it from your home coast on the Pacific
westward around the world to our home
coast on the Atlantic. Not ship has
had a scratch. The whole fleet is more
efficient than when it started. You have
kept the ships, separately and together,
so well exercised that they have in
creased their efficiency in gunnery and
in technical maneuvering.
Moreover, you have shown real abll-
ity of an unusual kind in the way IN
which in Australia and Japan you have
represented this nation, in what was
in effect on our side a great diplomatic
mission.
Praises Work on Board
"In addition, I want heartily to COM
mend what you did on the national
coast defense board in 1905, where the
work was of the very greatest impor-
lance.
Il also congratulate you upon the
distinguished part you played, and es-
pecially in connection with the work
done in the discussion of maritime law,
in the second peace congress at The
Hague in 1907.
I'm short, your career during my ad-
ministration has been such as to re-
fleet honor on the entire naval service
Sincerely yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"
ITO Rear Admiral c. S. Sperry, U. s
N, through the secretary of the navy.
In transmitting the letter. Secretary
Newberry said the navy department
desired to add thereto its unqualified
approval of the manner in which the
admiral had administered the affairs
of the fleet.
Secretary Newberry's letter contin-
ues: 1.-THE fact that the cruise OF the
battleship fleet from San Francisco tt
Hampton Roads was complete sue
cess reflects not only great credit upor
| you but upon the navy"
Admiral Sperry acknowledged Score
tary Newberrys letter with gratlf1ca'
ton, and said:
! mo officer could desire higher rec
ord than such commentator and GER
| tainlv such results would have beer
| impossible except for the unhesitatine
and constant support of the department
and the loyal vigilance in the perform
ance of duty of the officers and mer
of the fleet"

and the ugliest disregard for beneti-
cent government.
Destroys Hostile Forces
1.-THE recall splits wide apart this
evil confederacy. 1t destroys the
agency of exchange between the two
forces. For their purposes they re-
quire the political imbecile. the plant
hireling. who would carry out their
bargains in the peoples offices. Inc
recall knocks over this political I'M
beetle and replaces him with a man
of power and character, who, from the
manner of his selection and his own
sense of individual strength, is unWlll-
ing to be a mere tool.
'Thus the medium of exchange is
lost to the coalition, and without the
means of carrying out its trades 1T dis
solves of necessity, and once more the
train of popular government moves on
its course under the motive force OF
true democracy"

citizen of that town:
HE impressed all with whom he had

political affairs. He served the city

with credit.

him have a good word for Mr.. Alex

with his father in an early day, locat-

after. If elected he will give Los An
geles a clean administration and one

His SalutatOrY.

An Arkansas editor published the
following salutatory in the first issue
of his paper: "Our aim. to tell the
truth though the heavens take a
tumble; our paper. of the people,
for the people, and to be paid for
by the people; our religion, ortho-
dox, with a firm belief in hell for
delinquent subscribers; our motto,
take all in sight and rustic for more; ;
our policy, to love our friends and
birthstone our enemies. If thine
enemy smite thee on the cheek,
smite him with haste and dexterity
at the butt of his most convenient
ear. What we advocate, one coun-
try, one flag and one wife-at a
time. Our object to live in pomp
and oriental splendor."

Nightly Costly Economy.

A man who was too economical to
subscribe for his paper, sent his lit
tie boy to borrow the copy taken by
his neighbor. In his haste the boy
ran over 81 stand of bees and In
ten minutes looked like warty sum-
mer squash. His cries reached his
father who ran to his assistance, fail
ing to notice barbed wire fence,
breaking 1t down, cutting hand
full of flesh from his anatomy, and
running SIS pair of pants. The old
COW took advantage of the gap in the
fence and got out in the cornfield
and killed herself eating green corn.
Hearing the racket, the wife ran,
upsetting four-gallon churn OF rich
cream into basket of kittens,
drowning the whole flock In her
hurry she dropped a S25 set of false
teeth. The baby. let alone, crawled
through the spilled cream and into
the parlor. running a $40 carpet

FARM BURROWS.

Hauling manure in hot weather is
rather stiff work, but if you are
hauling to the back field you get
quite a little rest going to and from
the source of supply
This is the season of the year
when the average road boss gets a
hump on himself and he humps all
the dirt and weeds in large humps
in the center of the road to be
smoothered down by profanity and
automobile drivers.
Science is doing great deal for
farmers, but in their anxiety to do
things, the scientists sometimes
overdo it. The tuberculin test is a
great discovery, but must be used
with care or it will be rated with the
trichina scare of few years ago.
The wind stacker on a threshing
machine gives good satisfaction, as
fas as the saving of labor is con-
cerned, but it does not stack the
straw to suit the careful farmer OF
today. This is especially true where
a small or medium sized stack is
built.
Some people are afraid to move
very far south for fear that they
will not. be able to stand the hot
sunshine in the summer time. How
ever, one should remember the spark
ling moonshine that is said to exist
there and some get more of that
than they can stand.
Generally it is considered advisa-
BILE to cap grain shocks, but for me
1 am almost done with that practice.
We had some grain we'll capped this
year and shortly after cutting we
had a soaking rain. We did not re-
move the caps and as a result quite
a little of the grain was spoiled.
Why men prefer to join the wheel
barrow parade in the cities where
slavishly they wheel rock, earth and
clnderS In preference TO work on the
farm is a mystery to me. A good
deal of the work on the farm is a
lark or a picinc compared with most
of the labor in the city.
One of our big hog troughs from
which we water our hogs is giving
us a good deal of trouble this year.
We used an eight-inch and ten-inch
plank in making it and it was put
together with 2O-penny spikes. The
cracks all look as though they were
tight enough to hold water, but they
have leaked a little all summer
What do you do to your leaking
troughs?

Marshfield, Wisconsin News: What
is good for man is good for beast
and it's a poor rule that won't work
both ways. Not far from Marsh
field lives contented couple on a
farm. They think great deal Of
each other and last March when the
husband began to refuse his rations
and kind of got sick like, it worried
his wife. Nothing seemed to suit
his taste and he went about doing
his chores as if he was trying to
save funeral expenses. Out in the
barn his wife came across pack
age of condition powders like they
feed horses and after reading it's
good qualities printed on the wrap
per, she vowed to try some on her
husband. The next morning for
breakfast she mixed a tablespoonful
with his oatmetl. He ate it with a
relish. The next day she repeated
the dose and before the end of the
week he jumped five-rail fence
and turned hand spring. Before
he had eaten one-pOund package
he threw the hired man three times
during the noon hour and cut up
several capers like a 16-year-old
do. Then the good wife. tickled all
over at her wonderful discovery, got
another package, but before a half
of it was fed up, her husband got so
frisky she could not keep him on the
farm or home nights. He just wants
to prance around and make goo-goo
eyes at all the women, and now his
wife is in tears and talks about get

Why the Auto Stopped.

An Allison automobile driver was
out in the country the other day. He
met an old lady and gentleman driv-
ing what seemed to be a staid, trust
worthy old horse, and so was some
what surprised when the old gentle
man gave him the high sign to stop.
But he pulled to one side of the road,
stopped the machine and engine and
the old gentleman led his horse by
the machine. The horse didn't even
prick up his ears or look toward the
shiny snortwagon. which caused the
driver to remark: your horse
didn't seem to be the least bit afraid
of an automobile" NO" replied
