Dr. Booker T. Washington was recently dis
cussing the temperance movement and expressed him
self as follows: There is great moral revolution
sweeping the entire South that has not yet at

enormous influence in the solution of the problem of
uplifting my 1t is revolution which think has
no parallel either in this country any other. The

place hunters and cheap grafters The city of Tacoma
has taken the lead in this reform in the Northwest by
adopting charter fashioned after the Des Mones and
Galveston charters which places the city in
the hands of five commissioners elected by the people.
The voters of Tacoma adopted this charter by an
overwhelming majority last Friday and now Spokane is
seeking to get similar charter adopted for that city
and it will be but matter of short time when both
Seattle and Portland will follow in their wake and this
form of municipal government become common to every
municipality in the Northwest and perhaps all over the
country The taxpayers robbed by first one lot OF
politicians and then another so much that they are
anxious to be relieved and that accounts for them cast

Joseph M. Snow, late higway commissioner for
the state of Washington, who retired from the office
last August and whose books and financial accounts
Gov Hay ordered exported owing to apparant irregu
arites is to the front with the statement that he still
has 900 of the states money which he stands ready
to turn over as the proper for the
same. How remarkably strange that Mr.. Snow did
not make that known the day after he retired from the
office Even stranger still, why he ever took the
money from the office at ALL If Mr.. Snow had taken
the precaution to have made a full accounting of his
official acts to Gov Hay before retiring from office 1T is
barely possible that he would have been spared the hu
initiation of having his office accounts exported and he
himself looked upon for time as is Ortis Hamilton
awaiting trial for misappropriatng the state funds.
Snow may be as white as snow but rather shady
spots have been cast upon his snowy whiteness.

will be grimy to the end of their days,
no matter what Is done afterward to
bleach and clear them.
Change the cold W alter once or twice
during the soaking process, working

The first food of the day.

Every man, woman and child begins
he day with more or less vigor of mind
and strength of body according to the
drst food supplied to the stomach. The
best first dish of the day is a bowl of
Quaker Oats. The stomach can assimi-
bate it more quickly and with less effort
than other foods. There is little or no
waste and every ounce of food is con-
verted into muscle, vigor and brain
activity. The strongest people in the
world are the regular eaters of Quaker
Oats. You should eat it for breakfast
every day.
If you are convenient to the store
you'll probably buy the regular size
package. For those who live in the
country the large size family package
is more satisfactory.

LOOK OUT FOR MACK |

His Managerial Ability.
WILL HE LAND ANOTHER FLAG?
Recent Good Playing Of Philadelphia
Americans Making Rival Sit Up and
Take Notice-Team Made Sensa
tional Squirt on Western Trip.
BY TOMMY CLARK.

By TOMMY CLARK.
Can Manager Connie Mack OF the
Philadelphia Americans keep his
youngsters keyed up to such pitch
during the entire season and then bring
them through the terrific struggle
which invariably takes place during
the last few weeks Of the race in Ban
.Johnson's league? This is the ques-
ton that the seven other managers in
the big league are asking. The first
few weeks Of the present season the
Athletics looked like the cheapest kind
Of second division team. Then came
the first western trip. What Connie
Mack's band of ball tossers did to the
westerners Is now baseball history.
The Athletics record to date is an
instance Of what competent manage
ment will do for combination Of ball
players that is not up to championship
caliber. Manager Mack knows that on
the surface his team Is not considered
first place material. but there have
been many pennants won by inferior
teams guided by master managers
In the two years that the Athletics
honored Philadelphia by bringing cham
pionships to the Quaker City 1t was
freely admitted by critics that these
pennants were more the result of
Mack's Napoleouic strategy than the
inherent superiority Of his teams over
one or two other contenders for the
championship. At the beginning Of
the present season Manager Mack stat
ed that he had great task ahead Of
him to mold his material into win
ming combination, that his material
was promising, but not exceptional in
character. but that he was confident
that he could pick from it winning
aggregation.
In sizing up Mack's team one finds
no Wagners. I.ajoies or Crawfords Oh
It. Still. the ginger and team work that

PEACH CROP VERY SHORT.
Fifteen Per Cent All that Will be Saved

Say Experts of Peninsula.

Fifteen per centum is now the pre-
diction as to the peach crop of the
peninsula, while thirty per centum of
the crop of the Western Maryland
counties Will be saved and delivered.
The June ''drop" which is natures
cutting off of the weak and emaciated
peaches, and leaving the good ones to
absorb the vitality and growing ele-
ments from the tree is over. 1t was

and its "hurry up" growing weather.
Professor 7. B. Symons, State Ento-
mologist of Maryland, has made tour
of Delaware and the Peninsula and
makes the statement that the farmers
will not realize more than fifteen per
centum, according to and based on the
present acreage of peach trees old
enough to bear. Western Maryland
will harvest thirty per centum. In
the face of a belief that live enemies to
the peaches, like San Jose scale, have
killed the 1909 crop. Professor SymOns
does not think so. Nor do any of the
experts in Delaware. The falling of
is due largely to the heavy frosts dur
ing the early spring, and also to cit

far more prevalent this year than last
Under the direction of the State Hor
