A PLEASANT EVENING.
Miss Lurene Wolfe Entertains Sew
eral of Her Young Friends.

Jamison, Sept. special: On
last Friday evening at the home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. D. Boyce Wolfe, of the
Advance section, their oldest daugh-
ter, Miss Lurene Ethel, celebrated
her seventeenth birthday by inviting
a number of her friends to be with
her and enjoy the hospitalities of
the evening.
Immediately upon entering the
home it yecame evident to the guests
that a great deal of work had been
done to have everything at its best.
The house was in fine condition.
Lights almost in every corner made
the whole house almost bower of
light.
A few innocent games were played
but guessing contests seemed to take
the lead. The feature of the even
ing was what was called the "Kitch-
en- Shower" which was represented
by twenty-six definitions of kitchen
utensils being written on sheets of
paper and upon being distributed
to as many couples they were asked
to write the name of each utensil
described on the sheet. This contest
put the boys at decided disadvan-
tage for very few boys know any
thing about kitchen, once the fire
has been made and the water has
been drawn. Twenty minutes were
permitted to complete the list, after
which it was found, upon examina-
! ton, that Miss Mae Staley and Mr..
Daniel Wolfe had won first prize,
for they had correctly guessed twen-
ty-fve definitions. The prize was in
keeping with the contest and had
to do only with kitchen utensils,
was large spoon with very long
handle. Miss Pauline Zeigler and
Mr.. Lewis Myers received the con-
ISOLATION, which was a water cup.
AS the evening rapidly passed and
refreshments were served, if there
was single one among the many
who had not had his share of the
evenings pleasure, it was all his
fault.
Tables for two couples were plac-
ed on the long piazza and in a large
room nearby and in the bright light,
showering upon the many couples,
presented a splendid view. Here
cream with three fiavors and cake
was served.
Among the guests present were:
! Misses Essie Livingston, Ruth Red
mond, Lula and Minnie Murph,
Juriah Dash, Maggie, Belle, Essie,
Marie and Lurene Wolfe, Pauline
and Louise Zeigler, Emmie Oliver.
Florence Baton, Carrie Hunter and
Mae Staley; Messrs. John Murpn,
Clifton Redmond. Tom zeigler, Earle
Inabinet, Eldon Staley, Lewis Dash,
David and Daniel Wolfe, Lewis and
David Myers and Mr.. Haigler.
At 1880 all wended their way
to their respective homes, having
spent very pleasant evening.

Prohibition in Newherry.

The Newberry Herald and News
tells of a "big meeting" at Cedar
Grove, a negro Methodist church
about fifteen miles from the town of
Newberry. The Herald and News
says lit has large membership and
during these big meetings the
membership and those who attend
have the advantage of tents and
buildings in which to live during the
meeting. According to a report
from some of those who went to
Cedar Grove on Sunday, and very
large number of negroes from the
city went up there, the place was
more one Of carousal than place
at which they had assembled for
worship.
"The negro from Newberry who
talked to The Herald and News, said
that there were a number of persons
drunk and pistols were shot in the
air and in the ground, and that there
was a white man on the grounds
selling whiskey in pints and half
pints and quarts. He carried his
supply in a buggy and sold it openly
to those who were at Cedar Grove
on Sunday. There was one woman,
he said, who locked herself in one
of the houses in order to keep from
being killed by her husband, and
in the slash of knives one of Mr..
Bells mules was cut, but it seems
no one of the worshipers was in
iured either by being shot or cut"
A worse condition than this could
hardly have existed under the old
bar-room system, to say nothing OF
the dispensary. We hope and be-
lieve that the prohibition law will
be better enforced in Orangeburg
county than it seems to be in New
berry. if the above is fair sample
of the enforcement Of the law in
that county. The white man that
was selling that liquor to the ne
groes should be caught and locked
I'D. This ought to be an easy mat
ter, as he seems to have been SELL
ing it openely and above board to
any who would buy, and there seems
to have been several hundred there
who was that way inclined. We do
not need the Newherry brand of
prohibition down this way. We must
have something better.

If all work and no play is bad
for the children in the home, as 1t
certainly is, it is also true that all
play and no work is just as harm
fui. In many homes while the mother

tire household work the daughter IS
always we'll dressed and spends her
time in idleness. And while the

Stop 1t, Mr.. Taft.

The utterances of one or two gov
ernment officials anent the conserva-
ton of national resources creates a
feeling of uncertainty and even anXi-
ETY.. According to the statement of
Mr.. Pinchot the Interests seem to
to be in the saddle again, and will
be allowed to gobble up all the valu-
able public landb laying around
loose. In fact. it is stated that Mr..
Gallinger. secretary of the interior,
who use to be the attorney for the
land grabbers trust. is praying right
into the hands Of his old employer
and granted them the privilege to
take what they wanted in the shape
of public lands. 1t Is due to the
public, especially to all who live
m the so-called Irrigation States,
that that suspense be relieved.
For years it has been a constant
struggle between the people and the
great corporations which have grown
enormously rich because OF the prac-
tical monopoly they have enjoyed,
and the present public mood is not
tolerant of further monopolistic
usurpation Of public rights. The
progress Of the States in which ir-
rigation is largely followed will he
clicked and their prosperity Grip
pied if few men manage to get pos
session Of and control the water sup
ply. Mr.. Taft should stop this raid
at once, and kick his secretary of

ca .ngins social aud economic con-

F1nthods aud 4 recasting Of ones

Wien it does not involve sacrifice
of principle. Indeed the one domi-

conditions were such that individ-

the best way to promote that end.
'Today. owing TO the business and
social changes that have taken place,
tho trend is strongly away from in

great problem is. how to conserve

Eugsish political economists asser

English political economists assert
3bat the tax on unearned increment
is redly not tax on land but a
tax ON "wipdfalls," which is the
name, given to the increased value OF
Sand that has taken place not
through any Improvements made on
the iand but by reason of the growth
and prosperity of the community.
Calling the tax one on windfalls and
not ON land will not make the own
ers of such land pay the tax with
any better grace. but there is reason
in it and it is the right thing that
%bose. who amass. wealth not by their
own labor but by that of others
should be taxed accordingly.

The SPOKANE PRESS. THURSDAY, MAY 8

Ginners association, says in an ad-
dress to the cotton growers that
this years crop will bring them
$50, 100000 less than last year
(when the total product brought
$500, 000,000O although 2,099,66G
bales more will be marketed this
year than in 1908. President Tay-
lor urges that at least 10 per cent
less cotton should be raised the
coming year. His advice is being
followed with enthusiasm. Meet
ings by the hundreds are being
held in small towns and cross-rOad
school houses. Speakers are show
ing that when the unions instruc-
lions were followed cotton was
boosted from cents to 8 cents and
even IA cents a pound, and that
this year a loss willabe sustained
because the members did not obey
the unions decision.
The new idea that Is being put
into practice by the cotton grow
ers and will be copied by the wheat
raisers emanates from Mississippi
The members of the Farmers union
of that state decided to set aside
one acre of their crops for the
maintenance of the general distress
fund, to be used only for the pur,
pose of aiding those members re-
quiring assistance and enable them
to hold their cotton and beat the
gamblers and spectators to the
manufacturers. The plan is also be-
ing adopted in Georgia, Texas and
other states.
Soon you will hear the specula-
tors and gamblers in wheat and
cotton denouncing the labor mo-
nopoly" that exists on the farms OF
the west and south. They will de-
mand the enforcement of the Sher-
man antitrust law and the dissolu-
ton of the Farmers union on the
grpund that it is in restraint of
trade" and violating "the sacred
law of supply and demand"

| see the National league base
ball scandal has bobbed up again
despite the efforts of the moguls
to keep it down.
These wise guys of base ball
should have known better. 1t was
dead open-and-shut that their eff
forts to whitewash the crookedness
would result in the newspapers
making herculean efforts to learn
the truth, Now they appreciate it.
Dr. Cramer Tor Dreamer, as the
case may be-, physician to the
Giants, is said to be the man who
offered $4,000 to the umpires to
throw games to his patients.
John T. Brush, owner (osten-
sibly) of the New York team, but
really mouthpiece for Andy Freed
man, declares he has nothing to
say about the report that Cramer
attempted to bride the umpires.
I'd like to ask WHY Mr.. J. T.
Brush has nothing to say?
1t strikes me the people who
hand over their four bits to see the
Giants perform are entitled to
know WHY he has nothing to say.
The National league has a right
to know WHY he has nothing to
say.
The national commission, the so
called court of last resort, has the
right, and If he hasn't, it should as
sumo the right to know WHY he
has nothing to say.
This attitude of Brush compels
suspicion. 1t makes me think he
has nothing to say because he fears
that by opening his mouth he may
put his foot into it.
Id like to ask Mr.. Brush this
question, publicly:
Have you nothing to say be-
cause you KNOW who Cramer rep,
resented, and are you trying to pro-
tect the man higher up when you
refuse to discuss the scandal?"
1t is conceded Cramer is the goat
In the words of some citizens. he is
the fall guy" for the men whose
money he handled in the now cele.
brated episode.
AND SHOULD THIS BE PER
MITTED?
No one can be even reasonably
certain that any game played in the
National league is on the level
least of all the games in which the
Giants participate, as long as
Brush maintains his Il have moth
ing to say" attitude.
The strength of baseball lies in
its honesty. This is now assaulted,
and assaulted strongly. Nothing but
an open investigation will clarity
the situation and satisfy the public.
And the public is to be satisfied.
The public's cash makes the game
possible. If this policy of covering
up is permitted, it will not be long
before Mr., General Public will pass
up base ball, as he has fake foot
races and other professional sports,
by which time the thick-headed,
money-mad magnates will come out
of their trance and appreciate that
honesty Is the best policy even If
the phrase is worn threadbare.

If -four is as high next year as at
present, or even higher, give due
credit to Patten and the grain gam
blers for having educated the
wheat growers to an understanding
of the value" of their product. The
Farmers union, to which, have al
ready referred as an organization
with several million members, and
growing rapidly, is as intent on sus-
pending the so-called natural law
of supply and demand as was Pat
ten and his cohorts.
''If Patten can monopolize our
product and clean up millions Of
dollars, why cannot we. the raisers
and original owners of wheat?' is
the question the farmers are ask
ing. And what is the answer? Or
ganize and withhold wheat from
the market. And that is precisely
what the farm workers are now
preparing to do.
Throughout the west and south
west hundreds of elevators have
been or are being erected under the
direction of the Farmers union for
the purpose of storing their grain.
Efforts are also being made to limit
the acreage of wheat to make con-
troll more effective. But the farmers
will need cash to pay interest.
taxes, etc, you say. Some, but not
all. They claim that they can bor-
row all the money required, and by
forcing up prices 25 per cent pay

sides they have discovered a new
wrinkle, or rather will borrow 1t
from their cotton-growing brethren
in the south.
In the south the Farmers union
is becoming almost invulnerable.
The question of restricting produc-
ton of cotton is paramount. Presi-
dent j. A. Taylor of the National
