SUFFRAGISTS ASK FOR
HELP OF CLERGYMEN

Seattle, Wash.-The convention Of
the American Woman Suffrage asso-
citation devoted the morning to the
reading and discussion of reports.
Mrs. Rachael Foster Avery, who has
directed the obtaining Of a million
signatures to a petition to congress
asking for submission of a 18th
amendment enabling women to vote,
reported her work nearly completed.
Mrs. Mary E. Cragie, Of New York,
in her report as chairman of the COM
mittee on church work, spoke of the
courtesy and kindness she had recev-
ed from clergymen. She said:
"There are two reasons why cler-
gymen should support the woman
suffrage movement. First, because
it is Just and right and in accordance
with the Golden Rule, and because it
would augment the power of the
churches to have an enfranchised
womanhood to aid in carrying on the
warfare against the liquor traffic, the
white slave traffic, child labor, i'm
pure food and many other existing
evils that depend upon legislative en-
actment that now is being waged
with only one-third the power of the
churches"
At the afternoon session the report
of the press committee showed
growing interest in suffrage by the
leading daily papers and magazines.
The report dwelt with satisfaction on
the surrender of the managing editor
of zone of the largest Ohio dailies,"
who, after vowing that he would never
print an editorial favorable to woman
suffrage, was doing that very thing,
explaining that while his own views
were unaltered, the public mind had
changed.
The split in the washington State
association gives the national officers
much distress. They are urging a
compromise. The state officers re-
fuse absolutely to accept the demand
Of the insurgents led by D. c. Coates,
formerly lieutenant-governor Of Colo

Minneapolis, July 7.-While the
Christian Endeavorers are gathering
in st. Paul, the capitals big sister
city is today entertaining the dele
gates to a smaller convention of a
similar character, that of the Young
Peoples Christian Union of the Uni
versalist church. The session opened
today marks the twenty-flrst birth
day of the national organization of
young folks who charitably believe
that everybody will be saved and
eventually land on the right side OF
the pearly gates.
A large delegation from New Eng
land arrived on special train from
Boston, the party including Secretary
Hill and Treasurer Pierce, both OF
Massachusetts, who will present their
annual reports tomorrow. The con-
vention will last seven days.

MEXICAN YUMA CONSUL
SLUGGED AND MAY DIE

Yuma, Ariz., July 7.-Because he
refused to interfere in the trial of
two Mexicans accused Of stabbing an
Indian policeman, Enrique Comacho'
Mexican consul here, is in a serious
condition following an attack made
on him yesterday. Comacho accuses
Frank Green, half Mexican, and a
Mexican of being his assailants.
According to Comacho, he was met
by the men, who berated him for not
taking the part of the accused Mexi-
can. When he retorted that he would
let justice take its course they are
said to have become enraged and one
of them struck him with a railroad
spike, inflicting injuries that may re-
suit fatally.

HOOSier Attorneys.

Indianapolis, Ind, July 7.-Hoosler
legal lights met in thirteenth annual
session here this morning and decid-
ed to put up the bars against fur
ther invasion of half-baked lawyers
into Indiana legal circles. A constl-
tutional amendment raising the quail
ifications Of applicants for admission
to the bar in this state already passed
upon favorably by the legislature, is
demanded by the attorneys. At pres
ent a good moral character and a
smatterlng of legal terms is about all
that is required.

they are conducted economically; they
know thow to train efficient teachers
for the public schools, and they should
be required by the several states to
devote much attention to this kind
Of special education. The students
who attend these teacher schools
would cheerfully go into this field of
labor if the opportunity to make a
creditable living were possible, and
only by state and national aid can
such an endeavor be accomplished
and the benefits fully realized"

Denver, Col.-"The greatest prob
lem in education today is the indus
trial training of the common people
SO as to enable them individually to
give more productive service" said
Homer H. Seerley, president of the
Iowa State normal school, Cedar
Falls Iowa, in his address before the
department of rural and agricultural
education which held a meeting here
in connection with the National Edu-
cation association. "All other edu-
cation can be conducted in groups,
but this must be personal and indi-
vidual.
All others are somewhat SIMILAR
but this must be adapted to each in
dividual and calls for a slightly diff
ferent solution. Improvement in me-
chanical lines of education is COM
paratively easy because it deals with
the populous and wealthy community
and does not call for extravagant ex-
penditure per capita; but agriculture
must be taught in a sparsely settled
community and at great expense per
capita. Agriculture is not one occu-
patton or branch, but many occupa-
tions and branches. 1t depends not
upon a single science, but many SCI
ences It represents in results not
single kind of skill, but many kinds
of capabilities.
Country Schools Important.
1.-THE nation and the state ought TO
be interested in this agricultural pro-
blem, because If these classes OF our
workers do not prosper, all other
classes fail. The country schools are
thus the most important of all schools
that are maintained, because those
educated therein become the founda-
ton of all business prosperity for all
other vocations. The work Of con-
Quoting such training is too expen-
sive TO rely upon the country school
districts alone, and hence the rest of
the state must help. Nothing Of large
importance will be able to be shown
in progress along these lines until
large amounts Of money are invested
in both state and nation so that
teachers can be trained, and salaries
sufficient for their support can be
paid. Then agricultural education
must depend upon men teachers and
not women teachers, and this situa-
ton will require one man teacher at
least for every twenty or thirty coun-
try schools, whose work will give
constant attention to the indus
trial part Of the instruction. For these
reasons. efforts have been put forth
for several years to interest both state
legislatures and the national congress
in this need, so that financial sup
port for such an edeavor may be CIV
en-. Progress has been made but thus
far but limited results have been OBJ
tanned
State Normals Necessary.
1.-THE state normal schools are the
proper state agency to use in this en-
deavor. They are numerous; they are
now popular teacher training schools;

no, and the grant was withdrawn.
The claim was made that the land Is
valuable for agricultural purposes and
that some of it is worth 800 an acre.
To combat the efforts of the resi-
dents of that district the Washing

experts on the land and has secured
affidavits from persons living near to
the effect that the land is marshy and
that its only product is marsh hay,
and that one crop in three years is

score of elderly men and women an.
swered to the same roll call in Austin
district school yesterday that was read
to them in 1866 by Eliza Morris, their
teacher. Miss Morris, or Mrs. Eliza
Norris Osborn, sat behind the old
desk and read the list. One by one
the boys and girls said present" but
there were some names to which there
were no responses.
The pupils" came when the bell
rang, carrying their frazzled books
and states under their arms. After
roll call they recited geography and
arithmetic, with more errors than the
teacher would have allowed in 1866.
Then they had recess and nearly ev-
cry one ate from a tin dinner pail

they played school games.
Many of the former pupils had come
from long distances to greet their
