Obituary.

The death angel visited our community on last Monday night, March IA, and claimed Earl Nor. gan as it's victim.
 Earl was born in 1893. He had finished his work on earth at the early age of 16
 Earl was not a member of any church, but he left a strong evi- dence behind.
 Only a short time before he died he repeated the Lord s Prayer and sang one of his favor ite songs. Although his suffer ing was intense, still he bore 1t with patience until the end.
 He will not only be missed by the family but by the neighbor- hood and his Sunday school teacher who never went to the class without seeing Earl's smil- ing face. He was one of the best pupils in our Sunday school and will be greatly missed by the whole school.
 He leaves two sisters Mrs N. M. Watkins of this place, Mrs. Speed of Heber and two brothers Messrs. Ira and Dozier Morgan and other relatives, and many frieds who mourn his death.
 We would say to the bereaved family weep not" but prepare to meet Earl in the great beyond where there are no more deaths and separations, but where all is peace and happiness.
 The funeral services were con ducted by Rev. Joe Johnson and Wade Phar at eleven o'clock Wed nesday morning. March 16, and the body was laid to rest in Wal ters Chapel cemetery to await the resurrection.

A Needed Reform

The common school system should be the very best that could be devised, instead of the poorest, as it is in many of the. Southern States. Few people know the true position of Arkan- sas in educational matters. Her school year averages 93.3 days, and is the shortest of any state in the Union; barely S4.97 is ,raa "a per capita of the school population, and in 1906 ', 220.621 out of 486, ,402 children of school age-less than half-were at tending school. The compulso- ry education law, passed by the last legislature, applies to only thirty four of the seventv-five counties, although 21 per cent of the white adult population can neither read nor write. County superintendents are elected in only four counties, and many rural school directors are Hitter ate. Fortunately, the boastful period of the states life is over. One no longer hears Arkansas has the grandest and best school system in the United States. " Instead it is seen that the sys- teIApust be improved, or our people will fall behind for the lack of knowledge. Thy aust learn the value fgIeir forests,l the value of the ground, and the rocks full of mineral wealth, and how to use these values for the improvement of their we'll Ling. This must come through the schools.
 The Conference for Education in the South, a body of almost S2.OOO volunteer workers, which meets in Little Rock on the 9th, 7th and 9th of April, has been helping in this work of school improvement, both with advice and money, for the past twelve years. The principal object be- fore the conference is the rural Dublic school of the Southern States. Within these states is to be found one-fourth of the -snhool population of the United States, and as 80 per cent ot their entire population is rural, the scope of the work is very great. At the meeting this year, the subjects discussed will con cern agricultural education, chiefly. And it is Eoped that the interest will be widespread over the state in this conference for the better education of the children, and the enlargement of rural life. The attendance is purely voluntary, and all who are interested and.

BRICKMAKERS MAY RAISE
PRICES OF PRODUCT
Men Who Will Meet in Pittsburg Ask
Why Their HandiWork Should
Decline While Lumber Rises

PITTSBURG, Feb. why is ~the
price of brick on the decline while that
of lumber increases? What may be
done to rescue the brick?
These conundrums suggesting de-
sired increase in the price in one OF
the necessities of the building trades
are but two of several questions which
some 800 brickmakers from all over the
country will puzzle their heads about
here this week at the tWenty-fourth
annual convention of the National
Brick Manufacturers association.
Preliminary meetings were held to-
day at the Fort Pitt hotel. 1t is said
that, while the association never under
takes to regulate prices to the extent
of fixing arbitrary rates, it is added
that the suggestions are put forward
whenever improvement is thought
necessary.
Since the brick is to the builder in
quite the same relation as beef to the
housekeeper, the trend of the brick
makers action will be watched with
considerable general interest.
The officers of the association are:
President, Lemon Parker st. Louis;
secretary, T. A. Randall, Indianapolis;

NEW LAND LAWS
HERMANN'S PLAN
REECE, ON STAND, ACCUSES
FORMER CONGRESSMAN
Attempt Made to Impeach Witness
Patterson-Gatherin Loose Ends
in Conspiracy Trial an Ex-
tended Process
[Associated Pressl

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. THE
gathering up of the loose ends of evil
dence today in the trial of former
Congressman Binger Hermann on a
charge of conspiring to defraud the
government of public land, proved an
extended process.
Col. Worthington of HERMANN s
counsel said new evidence had de-
veloped which he desired to introduce.
This testimony referred to Hermann S
efforts to have the lieu land law of
1897 amended or repealed. Also eff
fort was made to impeach the testi-
mony of H. l.. Pattedson, govern
ment witness who had testified to the
presence of Hermann and f. p. Mays,
an Oregon politician, in the office of
the surveyor general of Oregon in Sep
tember, 1901. The prosecution contends
that Hermann and Mays formed the
alleged conspiracy in connection with
which Hermann is on trial.
William M. Reeco a resident of Eu-
gene, Ore, who, according to his tes-
timony, was clerk of the committee on
public lands in the national house of
representatives from 1895 to 1907, tes-
tilted that Hermann appeared before
the public lands committee and urged
that the lieu land law of 1897 be re-
pealed or modified so that persons
owning land within government re-
serve could be compelled to take land
of no better charac- -er outside the re-
serve. Reece testified that Hermann
on several occasions made visits to
John f. Lacey of Iowa, chairman of
that committee, in his effort to get
this law changed.
On cross examination Reece declared
that E. A. Hitchcock, former secretary
of the interior, had also appeared be-
fore the land committee. Reece sald
Hitchcock's principal complaint was in
connection with the timber and stone
act which he desired to have repeated
because of frauds perpetrated under it.
w. c. Greeves of oregon City testl-
fed that Patterson had told him that
for watching former Surveyor Cen
eral Meldrum while Meldrum was IN
washington, whittier he had gone to
testify for the government in the Her.
mann case, Patterson had been prom
ised a job in the secret service IN ad-
dition to his regu'"~ nay.
Patterson under cross examination
again TODAY specifically denied that he
had been promised anything III adul-
ton to his regul.r per diem.
Recalled by the prosecution, eX-
Surveyor General Henry Meldrum tes-
tilted as to some of the details of the
alleged conference between Hermann
and Mays in the surveyor generaIs S
office in September, 1901
The development of new testimony
which the defense wished to lntroduce
ord a more extended examination of
the remaining witnesses whose testi-
mony the prosecution desired to Offer
nrevented counsel from finishing the
Introduction of evidence. Counsel stated
lust prior to adjournment of court that
Ihev would finish during the hrst rev
minutes of tomorrow's session.
should this occur, Prosecutor Heney
will probably begin his argument TO
the Jury directly after the noon recess.

RICH NON-WORKERS
FLAYED BY PASTOR
WEALTHY CLASS SCORED BY
FASHIONABLE PREACHER
Says 1t Is Up to Workingman to Wake
Up to Evils of the Ameri-
can House of
Lords

NEW YORK. Feb. 1.-THE American
working1nan has come in for a stirring
indictment at the hands of the Rev.
Alexander Irvine of this city
Preaching last night to the wealthy
congregation of the Church of the As
cension, on Fifth avenue, the Rev. DR..
Irvine said:
1.-THE American workingman is a
composite of superstition, stupidity and
cowardice. He refuses to see his
plight and refuses even to try to help
himself. He is even more Of dullard
than his English brother, who has be-
gun to realize the oppression and sub
servience under which the domination
Of the house of lords has placed him.
There is a house of lords in this
country-more dangerous and more
subtle than the English institution. 1t
is composed of those who live on that
which they have not earned, and who
pride themselves on the fact that they
do not and cannot work.
"In rare moments of lucidity the
American workingman realizes that the
wealthy leisure class is living by his
toil-like a parasite sucking his blood.
Yet once in four years, when it is in
his power to lodge active protest, he
casts his vote unthinkingly for the fat
jolly smiling, thinking, patronizing
politician, who is long on promises but
woefully short on performances"

INSURANCE FIRM MUST
PAY FOR CAPTIVE SHIP
Circuit Court of Appeals at San Fran.
cisco Decides in Favor
of Owners

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. IAN echo
of the exciting days of blockade run
ming during the Russo-Japanese war
was awakened today when the United
States circuit court of appeals con-
firmed a judgment of $4,000 against
the Maritime Insurance company, linn
tied, of London, one of the insurers of
the steamship NJ. S. Dollar, captured
and sold as a prize by the Japanese
while it was attempting to run into
Vladivostok with a contraband cargo.
The vessel was insured here by the
M. S. Dollar Steamship company to
make voyage to Vladivostok, and it
was stipulated that she was to have
the right to run blockade If necessary.
She carried false papers clearing her
for Moji, Japan, and it was because of
these papers that the Maritime Insur-
ance company refused to pay the YES
sell, when, after the vessel had fallen
into the hands of the japanese admir-
atty courts, she was abandoned by the
steamship company to the insurers.
The total insurance of $175,000 was di-
vided among several companies. The
court held that when the insurance
company consented to the insertion of
the blockade clause it tacitly consented
to the vessel adopting any means of
disguise necessary to accomplish her
purpose.
