Pine NUTS ARE PLENTIFUL

1t has been several years since
the pine nut crop was as heavy as
this season and the Washoe
Indians are making the best of
their good fortunes. The bucks
have forsaken their favorite gamb.
ling games. while the mahalas
fail to show up on wash morning.
The major portion of the tribe is
harvesting pine nuts. They will
have mighty little use for flour
through the winter because the
nuts furnish an inexpensive sub
stitute for the staff of life. Ante
dating the memory of the oldest
inhabitant, the. Indians have fore
casted the approaching winter by
natures endowment of pine nuts.
A plenitude Of nuts indicate q
hard winter, while a light crop
means light winter, last winter
the forecast failed and how it will
work out the winter coming is q
problem for much speculation -.

COUNTRY ALL RIGHT

American Review, for September.
is written in q view of such hope
fulness for theAmerican future that
it has attracted wide attention.
The article is entitled, "A Plea for
the Conservation of Common
Sense" and it is meeting with the
cordial approval of business men
of all shades of political opinion
throughout the entire country In
part Colonel Harvey says:
"Unquestionably a spirit of
unrest dominates the land. But,
if it be true that fundamentally
the condition of the country is
sound, must we necessarily sue
cumb to dependency, abandon
effort looking to retrieval and
cringe like cravens before clouds
that only threaten? Rather ought
we not to analyze conditions, search
for causes. find the root of the dis
tress, which even now exists only
in mems minds, and then. after the
American fashion, apply such
remedies as seems most likely to
produce beneficent results?
"The Link that connects labor
with capital is not broken but we
may not deny that it is less cohesive
than it should be ..r than conditions
warrant. Financially, the country
is stronger than ever before in its
history. Recovery fl ON a panic 80
severe as that of three years ago
was never before SO prompt and
comparatively complete. The
masses are practically free from
debt. Money is held by the banks
in abundance and rates are low.
why, then. does capital pause
upon the threshold of investment?
The answer, we believe, to be
plain. 1t awaits adjustment of
the relations of government to
business. The sole problem
consists of determining kow govern
nent between aggreations of
intersest, on the one hand, and the
whole people, on the otner, pro-
tecting the latter against extortion
and saving the former from mad
assaults.
"The solution is not easy to find
for the simple reason that the
situation is without precedent.
But is not progress being made
along sane and cautious lines?
us not the present, al we have
seen, exceptionally secure? What,
then of preparations for the
future? Patriotism is the basis
Of our institutions.
And patriotism in the minds of
our youth Is no longer linked
solely with fireworks and deeds of
daring. 1t is taught in our schools.
A new course has been added
course in loyalty. Methodically,
our children learn how to vote,
how to conduct primaries, con-
ventions and elections, how to dis
criminate between qualifications Of
candidates and, finally, how to
govern as we'll as serve. They are
taught to despise bribery and all
forms Of corruption and fraud as
treason. Their creed, which they
are made to know by heart, is not
complex. 1t is simple, but COM
prehensive, no less beautiful in
diction than lofty in aspiration
These are the pledges which are
craven upon their memories:
"As it is cowardly for a soldier
to run away from battle so 1t is
cowardly for any citizen not to
contribute his share to the we'll
being of his country. America is

louisville Evening Post.)
When any person, lawyer, banker,
college president or business man,
wants to attract attention to himself,
he tries to say something offensive to
Roosevelt, lowering not Roosevelt.
but himself, in the opinion of the pub
lie.
Patrick Calhoun, Pulitzer, Stryker.
Earle, and now Ballinger's attorney,
Mr.. VeTtTeeS, of Tennessee, assail Mr.
Roosevelt without reading what thew
attack or trying to quote what he has
said.
Mr.. Nertrees wrote a pamphlet on
the. Negro question some years ago,
which no one would discuss with him,
and he evidently suffered a great dis
appointment
Just now he has issued another
pamphlet on the political situation in
Tennessee, but he digresses to indulge
IN tlt Of vulgar denunciation of Mr..
Roosevelt, adding, "He has recently
spent year IN the heart of Africa, the
Negroes home, yet he is 81
lent, absolutely silent, as to the Negro
| problem and the Negro race"
Silent as to the Negro problem" ."
because in Africa there is no Negro
| problem, but not silent as to the Ne
gro race. By referring to Chapter I,
page 8, in Mr.. Roosevelt's AFRICAN
! Game Trails" Mr., Vertrees will find
written:
One Of the government farms was
being run by an educated colored man
from Jamaica; and we were shown
much courtesy by colored man from
our own country, who was practicing
as doctor No one could fail to be
impressed with the immense advance
I these men represented, as compared
with the native Negro; and, indeed, to
an American, who must necessarily
| think much of the race problem at
home, 1t IS pleasant to be made to
realize, in vivid fashion, the progress
the American Negro has made by
comparing him with the Negro who
dwells in Africa, untouched, or lightly
touched, by white influence"
Mr.. Vertrees should take a day or a
year off and study social or political
questions before he invites attention
to himself.

he was born about thirty years ago.
Though DR.. Seabrook was a very young
man, and had engaged actively in his
profession only a short time before his
Illness, he gave every promise of the
most eminent success as a physician and
business man. His jovial disposition,
his cOurtly but pleasant bearing, his
splendid equipment in education and
special training, his ambition to ex-

qualities of his that impressed
themselves vividly upon all who
had the privilege of his acquaintance.
He received his education in the schools
of Columbia, S. c., and at Howard Uni

graduated both from the School of
Pharmacy and the School of Medicine,
taking high rank in his classes. He was
member of the Corinthian Lodge of
Odd Fellows, Washington, D. c., and of
several other organizations of that city.
The budding forth of a noble young
manhood was in him so pronounced that

for a shining mark, and deprived his
