Wholly Wrong in His Judgment.

Recently the name Of man who
lives not many miles from here ap-
peared in the columns Of the Cour-
ier in connection with news item
that was not very agreeable.
There was not single untruth in
the item-the truth was what he
objected to- and he went about
town abusing the editor behind
his back. Among other things he
said if he had done something that
would have made posterity proud
of him it would have never been
published.
This man was wholly wrong in
his. judgment Of editors. The fact
is, one of the keenest pleasures that
comes to newspaper men one of
the principal compensations Of their
lives, one of their greatest mis-
sions in life-is the opportunity in
dealing out and encouraging words
and chronicling good wherever it
occurs, no matter by whom. An
editor fully sensible of his duty is
no respector of persons. No news
paper worthy of its great name
ever allowed its columns to reflect
personal preferences. Often times
nice obituaries appear of persons
who have done the editor who wrote
them many wrongs. If there is a
profession on earth that returns
good for evil and gives every man
a fair deal, it is the newspaper
profession. When any one does a
good deed, no matter whether
friend or foe, the newspaper pro-
claims it and gives the author full
credit without coloring, the account
one particle. This is the unwritten
law of~all true newspapers. Oppor-
tunities appear almost daily to
newspaper men to vent their spleen
on some foes whom they might sin
gle out, but they seldom take ad.
vantage of the opportunities and
instead throw the mantle of charity
around their enemies. thereby
sparing the guilty and softening
the force of censure or criticism.
/, Very few people live in a COM
munity where newspaper is pub
lished who are not indebted to the
paper for something in this respect
in their person or in be-
half of some relative or friend.
In the future think of this and
see if we are not correct. Halle
hurst Courier.

The PeripateticS.

The hospitabIe doors of the home
of Mrs. M. Priebatsch were thrown
wide Saturday afternoon, at which
time the Peripatetics were enter
tanned by Mrs. M. Greenwood, as
hostess.
The Priebatsch home lends itself
readily to decoration and was con-
verted into perfect fairyland with
"a wealth of palms and flowers.
In point of attendance, it was
the most successful in the history
Of the club.
The feature of the afternoon was
the music from our Beach depart
ment.
A delightful musical programme
was rendered by several of the tai
|ented members of the club, and
was the very highest artistic sue
cess.
Being in the region of the super
lative, one would logically include
Mrs. H. Fl. A. Beach, the foremost
woman composer of America, and
perhaps, of the living world.
Program for the evening:
Piano Op. 6-Mrs. Brown.
Voice-Dark is the night, Mrs.
Greenwood.
Study-Bayard Taylor, Miss Pie
fer.
Voice-June: Shena Van, Mrs.
johnson.
Walt Whitman, Mrs. Bowen.
Piano Cadenza to 1st movement
of Bethoven's G Min Concerto
Mrs. Greenwood.
Mrs. Bowen's paper on Whitman
is deserving of more than passing
notice.

fer and Mrs. Bowen was very inter-
esting. A social half hour follow

Editor Leader Numerous re.
quests are continually coming to mt
for fertilizer formulas, SO | ask yor
to publish the following for those
most interested:
HOW TO USE COMMERCIAL
FERTILIZER.
On rich lands use mainly acid
phosphate, gradually increasing
the nitrogen or cotton seed meal
and decreasing the acid phosphate
as the land gets poorer. Corn re.
quires more cotton seed meal than
is needed on cotton. Hence the
following general rules:
FOR COTTON.
/. On good land mix three
fourths acid to one-fourth meal.
2. On medium lands, two parts
acid phosphate to one part meal.
8. On thin, impoverished soils,
one part acid to one part meal.
HOW TO APPLY.
1. On light, sandy soil or light
chocolate land in fair condition
apply 200 pounds to 300 pounds OF
No. 2.
On rich, sandy or heavy bottom
lands, use 200 pounds to 300 pounds
of No. l.
On poor lands, use $50 to 25O
pounds Of No. 8.
FOR CORN.
1t pays to use commercial fer
tilizer on corn.
On rich, heavy lands, 200 pounds
acid phosphate to 100 pounds cotton
seed meal.
On medium lands, 100 meal to
100 acid.
On light lands, 200 pounds acid
to 300 of meal.
On poor lands, 100 pounds acid
to 200 meal.
Apply from 200 to 400 pounds
per acre in water furrow, run
something through, to mix with
soil, bed out and harrow down un-
til the drill is only about three
inches higher than the middle.
Deep preparation, shallow cultiva-
tion is the rule. Any one interest,"
ed will find me at the court house

TO INSIST ON the "OpEN DOOR"
AMERICAS ATTITUDE REGARD
ING CHINESE RAILWAY LOAN.
Position Is Also Based Upon the
Promise Made to Minister
Conger in 1904.

/, Whatever may be the attitude Of this
government regarding any rightTof par
ticipatior in the HankUwCanton rail
way loan. the fact is that it has from
the first claimed the right to full quar-
ter portion of that on the Hupeh sec
tion of the Hankow-Sze-Chuen line This
observation Is called forth by the dis
patches printed this morning from Pc
king indicating the disposition of the
English bankers to permit American
participation in the HankowCanton loan
IL it did not come in on the Sze-Chuen
line. The privilege Of participa ting on
the latter road is claimed to be inher-
ent. in view of the promise to Mr.. Con-
ger in 1904, and this country is simply
undeniabe right. 1t wants also original
participation in the Sze-Chuen loan, or
dinately with the other powers, both for
political prestige and for the material
benefit that would accrue. After all, it
is pointed out, the question reverts to
the old one of an "open door" for
China, chance for all nations to par
ticipate in the opportunities for trade
and commerce offered by the vast fields
in the orient.
Battling for the establishment Of the
principle Of the open door has cost life
and money. and the United States is de-
termined that, SO far as 1t lies in its
power, this principle shall have full
sway, alike for the benefit of the China
men we'll as for the nations seeking
an opening in their country.

THAWS SANITY MADE AN ISSUE
OBJECTION TO HIS DISCHARGE
IN BANKRUPTCY FILED.
Claimed That He Was Not Men,
tally Sound When Petition Was
Submitted and Is Not Now.

. PITTSBURG. July lfl.--Obiection to the
,diseharse in bankruptcy of Harry Ken
daA Thaw was filed in the United States
district court today by J. G. Graham oi
Newburg, N. Y, who claims to be a
creditor of the bankrupt. For the first
time during the bankruptcy proceedings.
the objection raises the question of the
sanity OF Thaw. it being alleged that he
was insane at the time of the filing Of
the petition and that he is insane now.
For this reason, II is averred, the petition
should never have been considered by the
court.
Hitherto the United States courts had
not had the question of the validity of the
bankruptcy proceedings under considera-
tion.
The question of sanity will probably
now come up before Judge Charles p. Orr
for his decision.
The time i'm which to object to Thaw S
discharge expires today and the objection
filed came as a surprise.
BY a recent order of court. Thaw was
granted leave to file his petition of dis
charge without having personally ap-
peared before meeting of his creditors
Had not the objection been filed ThaW
would, in all probability, have been re-
leased from bankruptcy today. In the
event that the objection is sustained the
entire matter will again go back to the
referee in bankruptcy, w. r. Blair.
