BALD REPUBLICANS

pubicans averted war by promptly
agreeing that Ashford was right, ana
Link was right and so was Mccarthy.
A quick change was ordered in the
programme for the mass meeting, and
even while Democrats were limiting
darkly at a rival mass meeting,-there
are plenty of Democratic Congressman
in the delegation and being Democrats
they were of course ready to scrap in
Hawaii just as easy as at home,-just
as there opened the gleeful prospect OF
two rival meetings of visiting Con-
gressmen and real talkfest that would
have put the first legislature of Ha-
wall in the shade, announcements went
forth that the meeting tomorrow night
at Aala park was to be strictly nom
partisan. Under the craftsmanship OF
Hon. John G. Lane, the Unterrified and
those who have no need to be terrified
will sit ON the same platform. And
| both sides will speak 1t isn't the
fault of the committee of arrangements
that there happens to be more Republic
cans than Democrats in the Congress
sional party, just as there are in Con-
gress. Anyhow, all will speak, if will
ing.
Hon. Richard Bartholdt is down for
the first speech and is surely good for
crowd alone. Rodenberg, Miller,
Barchfeld, Thomas, Ellis, Young, Scott,
Prince, Taylor, Houston, Gambler Pad
gett and Watkins, have all also been
asked to address the crowd, and prob
ably most of them will.
All members of the Territorial Sc
rate and House, of the city govern
ment and leading members of both
parties are invited to be on the plat
| form.
1t is to be a non-partisan meeting
and Ashford may be heard to mourn
like Bryan, that the Republicans have
stolen his issue.

STOOD PAT ON THE THREE RS
A Former superintendent of Dawson
Schools Has Friction With the
Ouitman School Board.

A Quitman dispatch says the prin-
cipal of the graded school of that
town has been having his share of
trouble lately. He is Prof. Homer
Wright, a former superintendent of
the Dawson public schools. Last
year the school board introduced a
new course in the curriculum, that
of singing and free hand drawing in
water color Miss Fackler was en-
ployed as teacher, and made the
course very popular with the chill
dren.
Recently Mr.. Wright, in the in
terest of discipline, sent some of the
children home because they went to
school without drawing materials.
Several patrons of the school cir
culated a petition asking the school
board to make the taking of this
course elective instead of cOmpul-
sorry. The board held meeting and
there were those present who con-
tended that singing and painting
were new tangled, and that the old
fashioned three RS were all that is
essential. The three RS seemed to
win out, when the board, after much
discussion, decided to eliminate the
new course at the end Of this term.

COOKING AT SEA FOR ARMY

York June goth, are or enormous di-
mansions. The kitchens of the first
and second cabins are near the din
ing rooms of their respective class
es. In them are great steaming,
stock pots, ranges, steam tables, and
all modern machinery which can in
any way aid the chefs in their work.
Many of these devices, such as egg
heaters, potato parers, mincing ma
chimes, automatic egg boiler, coffee
mills and dishwashing machines, are
worked by electricity.
In addition to the kitchens there
are on board ice houses for meats,
bakeries, a confectionery room and
scullery rooms. In all, the kitchen
and provision rooms occupy a space
of $4,000 cubic feet.
The cold storage and provision
rooms are so arranged that their con-

THE GREAT NORTHWEST.
Women Are Among the Homestead
ers Out There.

Much of the romantic and historic
in cOnquering a new country has it's
locale in the Spokane district, en-
bracing eastern Washington, north
ern Idaho, northwestern Oregon,
western Montana and southeastern
British Columbia, where the home
steaders are building a veritable en-
pire in that section. The lure of
the unknown, which has sent thou
sands to the Pacific northwest, has
been productive of the fighting spirit,
and those who have vim and energy
and red blood in their veins are maxi
ing successes.
Most of them are from the con-
gested Centers in the east. They
went west to improve their condi-
tion-to win, and by persistency, per-
severance and application they are
gaining homes and independence.
Some have had battles in the west,
which, while the settlers are open
hearted and hospitable, is no place
for drOnes nor for the easy-going,
who look to the winds to blow sue
cess in their pathway.
Probably the most ambitious and
plucky settlers in the district, called
the inland empire of the northwest,
are fifteen young women who are
demonstrating on tracts of land near
Moses lake, west Of Spokane, where
they are gradually bringing under
cultivation what was the stamping
ground of the hardy buckaroos with
their big herds of cattle less than a
dozen years ago.
1t required a lot of nerve to get
down to grubbing the sage brush.
1t isn't a game for a gutter, this
pursuit of fortune in the wide ex-
panse where the coyotes flirt with
the jack rabbits. 1t is a job for
strong men. But hundreds have
made successes and as many more
are working with the same goal in
view. Thousands more will have
come into the Pacific northwest be-
fore all the land available for set

SHIPS ONE MILLION RABBITS.
Maine Consumes as Many More Her.
self. A Big Industry.

Maine is shipping 100000 hares
every year and eating 100000
more, and yet the supply is said to
be increasing every year. These
hares are shipped in barrels to the
Boston, New York and other markets.
The season for sharing begins with
the fall of the leaves in October, and
the number caught constantly in
creases until the snow gets soft I'M
der the sun of March.
Half the quantity sent out of the
state go to western cities, where they
are a popular Wand in stews or pot
ted in rabbit pies. But the strange
part of the hare-catching industry
is that the average price the hunters
receive is five cents a head for every
hare caught, packed and delivered at
the railroad station.

BIGGEST FARM ON EARTH
is THAT OF DAVID RANKIN IN
MISSOURI. HE GUESSES
1T is TRUE.

ST. JOSEPH, MO.-Nearly forty
years ago an Illinois farmer discov-
cred that land on one side of state
line was selling for 500 an acre,
while he might buy any amount on
the other side of the imaginary di-
Vldlng mark for less than a third
that amount. Real estate men told
the farmer that no railroad would
ever go near the Missouri lands, but
he sold his farm in Illinois and
bought all he could of the land at
Sc an acre.
Not long ago David Rankin, who
is the man that bought the cheap
acreage, took an inventory of his
possessions in the neighbOrhood of
Iarkio, Mo. The inventory showed
25,64O acres, 10000 fattening hogs,
5000 cattle, 500 horses, more than
100 cottages, in which the employees
.of the big farm were housed, great
quantities of farm machinery and the
like.
The total figures up to something
like $4,000,000 in value. That didn't
include the 100000 bushels of corn
produced annually or the $50 miles
of thing and bitches, some of which
had been draining the marsh lands
of forty years ago.
''They say I'm the biggest farmer
in the world" Rankin says, land

more land than l, but they use it for
cattle ranges only. Mine is a farm"

steers from the plains and fattens

lie never sells corn, because by feed
ing it to cattle, according to

ment factory, municipal water sys-
tenn, a telephone company, a bank
and other enterprises in addition to
his farm. When the notion takes
him he adds $4,000 or so to the
endowment of Tarkio College, a Pres
byterian school in his home town
which has known his generosity to
the extent of $250,00O.

A NEW RELIGION.

One of Its Tenets Is That Bathing
Is "a Foolish Waste of Energy.
In the town of Burt, Ia, there is
a man who gives promise of achiev-
ing fame for both himself and the
town. He is going to found new
religion. One of the leading tenets
of his faith is that bathing is all
foolishness and a waste of energy
He says he hasn't taken a bath in
ten years, is as hard as nails and
feels fine. He smokes and chews
tobacco, but draws the line against
whisky. 1t has been suggested that
he might go into the truck raising
business, but he says he is convinced
that he has a mission in the world,
and that it is to discourage too
prolific use of soap and water. He
will, of course, have following If
he promises a faith cure.

 TOM WILLS ON THE RANGERS
 
 and supervisor of Pinal county. is vis- iting in Phoenix, and has lately re turned from attending the stockmens convention in Los Angeles. Yesterday afternoon MT. Wills said that almost all of the residents on the San Pedro river were in favor of having a ranger force. and also a public examiner. He also said that although he was a dem ocrat, he was a firm believer in the ability of the rangers to run down and bring to justice horse thieves and oth- CTS whom the regular authorities were unable to get track of. Having been a sheriff. MT. Wills is naturally in a position to know something of these matters and in his own section of the country is considered quite an au- thority on the ability of the ranger force He thinks that if the rangers are abolished the old gang of horse thieves, which has been scattered by the vigilance of this body, will again organize and continue to help them selves to the valley live stock In his opinion the citizens do not realize the amount of good that has been done by these men and the amount of distance covered in order to bring to justice criminals whom the regular police and sheriffs would never attempt to fol low. The greatest work of the rangers seldom comes to light, or at least they are not very often given credit for what they do. MT. Wills further states that the people all along the river, as well as he himself, think that the public examiner and the rangers are not only useful, but an absolute necessity.
 VALENTINES FOR THE POLICE The members of the police force each received handsome valentines yesterday that must have cost the donors at least a penny each besides the postage.

 A SUSPECTED HoeO-Jack Req gan was arrested Saturday night for vagrancy but had in his possession a quantity of jewelry that leads the police to suspect that he is not as honest as he ought to be. He claims to have arrived here Friday night from Maricopa, having then about $25 in cash, though he slept on his blan- ket under the trees to save expenses. He had a couple of good looking gold nuggets that failed to stand up under the acid test, and some other jewelry that needed no test to prove it's in trinsic valuelessness. But there is one ring that gives him away. for it looks like a real s15 heavy. plain gold ring of 14 karats. It has the letters E. B. engraved inside and looks like fine piece of jewelry. though Req gan insists that he paid a dollar for it to a man at Maricopa, who said he got it for $25O, and that it is a filled ring The inference is that Reagan is telling a crooked story or that if he came by the ring honestly he is too good a natural pawn broker to be running at large and ought to settle down and go into business.
