HOLD CONFERENCE
Appeal Made for Earnest and
Vigorous Action
NOTE OF FESSIMISM HEARD
Brooks Lawrence Says About $1,000
Has Been Spent In Jefferson
and More Money Is
Urgently Needed.

dinner was given last night at the
Chamber of Commerce cafe under the
auspices OF Walter L. Sessions, which
was attended by number of amendment
leaders, at which plans were discussed for
carrying on a more vigorous campaign
for the amendment to the constitution.
There appeared to be little concealment
OF the pessimism In the minds of the
speakers about the outlook, and each one
urged vigorous and united work in order
to carry the day. Amang those present
were B. A. Thompson, who acted as
chairman, Rev. Brooks Lawrence. F. M.
Jackson, w. L. Sessions, c. P. Beddow,
Senator N. L. Miller, DR. F. l. Tarrant
and P. C. Ratcliff.
Mr. Lawrence, in his remarks, stated
that there was urgent need of more
funds to carry on the work in Jefferson
county. Up to the present time, he said
only about $1,000 has been spent in this
county. He said that two years ago
when the campaign for prohibition in the
county under the local option plan was
under way about $1,000 had been con-
tributed up to the present stage of the
campaign, but that in this fight. which
he regarded as much more important.
only about one-third of that amount had
been contributed.
/ Senator Miller said that the time had
come for urgent action; that the poison
had been sent forth by the anti amend
ment men to work in the minds of the
voters, and that what was now neces-
! sary to carry the amendment wis per
sonal appeal to every man to do bis part
Mr.. Beddow said that many good men
were being misled in the fight Others
spoke along similar lines. but the key
note of the conference appeared to be the
necessity for immediate action by the
| amendment leaders.

Provide for Your Children.

As you watch the children in
your home, creeping today, walk
ing tomorrow, and just learning
you realize that in a few short
years they must be prepared to
enter upon the serious work and
duties of life?
The proper home training
means a great deal to the childs
future. Good habits formed In
youth make the man stronger.
The value, use and l care OF
money Is one over which habit
has great control in every per-
son. A growing child who pos
sesses a growing bank account
is forming habits of thrift. The
ability to save, to spend less than
one earns, Is one of the first re-
quirements in the makeup of the
successful business man.
We would urge you to see that
your children have a savings &C
count with this bank. Start with

LIGHT GUARD

About fifty members OF the company
turned out for drill Tuesday, and af-
ter roll call marched down to the
school yard for the regular drill.
After drill the company orders were
read notifying the company to assem-
HE at the Armory at $50 o'clock sharp
Sunday afternoon in dress uniform to
march to the Congregational church
for Memorial day services; and at $50
sharp Monday morning to march to the
school grounds and then 80 the ceme-
terry for the regular outdoor services.
In the business meeting it was de-
cided that the company would go to
Cedar Lake for camp instead of Pike
Lake. The company has had three en-
campments at Little Cedar, and as the
majority of the boys are acquainted
with the people there, they will no
doubt enjoy this camp as much as they
did the last one. Hurrah for the calf
with it's Jersey Cream!

1t will probably be an item of news
to most of our readers that our genial
postmaster is not compelled to make
change for you when you makes pur-
chases at Uncle Sans office. This is
a queer rule that not one in thousand
persons know. Buyers of stamps OF
any purchasers at postoffice must
furnish their own change: !. e., the
postmaster could insist on the buyer
furnishing his own change if he sees
fit to do it; but usually the postmaster
is glad enough to get rid of his small
change, and he is always ready and
willing to accommodate the public by
making all the change it asks for. If
man wishes to buy fifty cents worth
of stamps and has but silver dollar,
he would be compelled to buy dollars
worth of stamps or go and get his sill
yer dollar changed or do without his
stamps If the postmaster was stubborn
and refused to make change for him
This is the law and a queer one accord
ing to our way of thinking. And post
masters are not compelled to take more
than twenty-five pennies at one time,
if they do not want them.

we're captivated by the pretty musical

the book have been pruned away, new
numbers lave been introduced and the
fetching little story gallops brishly

scenic and costume effects which have
made this production famous, will all
be seen next week, as will the original

ever visited Milwaukee, and who has
Iablished in this musical comedy the

There are times when purse strings
are frightened, when there is a PROPOSE
tion of public nature calling for con-
tributions. Men will talk of their past
contributions, of the failure of this and
the other project, and will refuse to
pay money for further plans which
they say will not bring money to their
pockets. There are some of these men
to be found in every community, just
as there are small potatoes in every
hill But when this condition becomes
general, when men whom the commun-
ity has right to look for a slight re-
turn for the benefit and the prosperity
which they enjoyed, refuse thus to dis
charge one of their plainest duties and
when the number of men becomes so
great as to threaten the success of
movements in the public interest, that
condition is an evidence of species of
dry rot, which if not speedily removed
will land the community in the com
mercial graveyard,

made by the postal authorities at
Washington for which they are entitled
to the united thanks of the mail car
riers. 1t has been ruled that where a
man keeps vicious dog about his
premises that makes it dangerous for
carrier to deliver mail, such delivery
may be omitted. Unless the carrier is
willing to risk danger of the dog, the
owner of the vicious brute win have to
depend upon himself in getting his

The man who pays his debts and his
taxes may be blessing or curse to
the community. 1t depends on what
else he does. In making this statement
it is to be understood that by the word
debt" is meant the ordinary cash OBJ
legation which a man incurs in the
transaction of his business There are
men who appear to believe that so long
as they are not indebted to their neigh
bors for goods purchased, or the muni-
cipality or the state for the last tax
levy they have discharged their whole
duty and nothing more can be ask ed
of them. But in reality mans duty
to his neighbour is limited only by his
power to do his neighbor good. and
his duty to the community by his abili-
ty to be of service to it. The commu-
ity in which the prevailing statement
is What DO l get out of it?' is one
which does not and cannot prosper

"Cush" Sells Us Out Again

Congressman F. w. Cushman sold out the
people to get a stand-in with the machine by
voting Tor Joe Cannon and all he represents in
obstruction to needed legislation. Now he has
sold out his home city to get life job for his
brother on the federal bench in Alaska.
In the meantime the people of his home
city are strenuously signing petitions to Presi-
dent Taft demanding in the name of justice to
Tacoma that Tacoma man be elevated to the
Federal bench here But "Cush" has forestalled
the game, according to dispatches from Wash
ington, by getting his brother job on the bench
In Alaska which gives Tacoma a mighty cheap
notoriety and shuts the door of possible APP
pointment for Tacoma man to the federal bench
here. And then "Cush'' agrees to have Seat
