I am a Springfield avenue merchant.

of stores, realize hat before we
can accomplish our purpose we must
have the cooperation of the public. I
wish to call the attention of the union
men to the state of affairs existing in
the "Hilr' section. We open our stores
every morning at 8 o'clock. and at 9
In the evening are ready to close. but
Just as we are ready to put out the
lights customers will come in. and be-
cause the store is small and the cus
toner comes in contact with the pro-
prietor we cannot refuse to serve the
late shopper.
Now, the ridiculous Lart Of the whole
business is that many of these tardy
customers are union men or wives of
union men, the very ones who are so
determined in their efforts to put
through the eight-hour law for all
trades. / know that this state of af-
fairs exists only because or the
thoughtlessness of the people, not be-
cause of n Intentional
Now, why can't all of the union men
instruct their wives to do their shop
ping earlier in the day and to dis
courage their children from visiting
stores after 9 O'Clock in the evening?
We are here to make money and to
please the public at the same time, but
we ask In return that we and u EN-
ployeee be helped in our efforts to
regulate the closing of stores.

"Unhappily forces for evil, for un-
known but sinister purposes, constantly
are en~deavoring by false reports or
other methods to create conditions of
ill-wi1l between two n~eighboring peo-
PIES" said Foreign Minister Count Ko-
mura, in toasting Secretly of War
Dickinson in Toxic. The prospect is
hardly as desperate as the count sees
it. If the practise of holding up the
Yellow Peril as a menace to the United
States results in an adequate navy the
purpose animating those who indulge in
it hardly can be called sinister"
That citizen of South Orange who is
80 years old and thinks p~resent-day
conditions are better than when he
was a boy richly deserves a medal or
"a more substantial recognition of his
optimism. THE good old days were
all right. but I must say 1 like the
+ II, live, up-to-date ones better" this
enthusiast exclaims. With such a
spirit animating him, this man has
been, doubtless. amply rewarded
through the interest he has taken in
the panorama Of human activities dur
ing a long life.
After being permitted to see a dress
rehearsal of the Ohio Republican plat
form for the fall campaign, President
Taft is said to have expressed his ap-
prevail of 1t. Which is equivalent to
GO ,rf1o +hot a. urtlt not r,aa+ tba opprova1
of an active wing of the party in Ohio.
Indeed. there are few States In the
Union where 1T will not be exceedingly
difficult to frame q Republican plat
form which will win the approval OF
the warning factions in the party.
True to the single purpose which
animated him for the seven years
which nave elapsed since the murder
Of his son, a wealthy New Yorker set
aside 500 0 in his will to be used in
bringing about the capture and pun
ishment Of the mlrderers. If this
most desirable end is ever accomplished
he should be regarded as an instrument
of justice and not as one who sought
for vengeance.
The sham battle of Gettysburg is
taking place today. Occurring as they
do on the site of the great decisive
battle of the Civil War, the
must be wonderfully interesting for
those OF the spectators who particle
pated in the original engagement. 1t
should be possible for them to deter
mine exactly what has been the evo-
luton in the art of war since Lee met
Meade in '63.

Roossvelt's rsauencs.


To the Editor of the Evening Star:
We hear daily of the different men
who, go to Sycamore Hill for a chat
with Colonel Roosevelt. We also hear
that most Of the visitors are Of the in
surgent OF near-insurgent variety, but
as yet we have not discovered where
the colonel stands. Is he or is he not
against the present administration?
Before Roosevelt returned the public
expected that the minute he set foot on
his native land he would declare him
self; how disappointing 1t must be to
many to be kept in suspense!
But. after all, what difference does 1t
make whether the colonel shows his
hand or not? His opinion would not
change present conditions. and his
views on the subject will not be Of
greater Importance than the views Of
any other intelligent citizen.
Let US not wait for q pre-digested
opinion, but figure things out for our
selves. If we study city, state and
national politics; IL we make It our
business to find out why the cost Of
living is higher and how It could be
made lower. 1t would make US vote the
right way with or without knowing
what Roosevelt has to say about It.
Roosevelt is an intelligent man, a
man who knows the political situation.
but, for all that, stifl human, n not
II a position to save the country.
The country will be saved when the
rank and file become Intelligent and
active. and then the intervention OF
Roosevelt or one like him in their be-
half will not be necessary.

man, even though he stood well in
his profession of applied robbery,
who would take advantage of, and a
watch from, a night-watchman who
was busily watching a building to
see that it did not stray away or
was stolen, should lose his union
card. He should forfeit the respect

it does not signify that a Waterman
is any less a Waterman merely be-
cause he has lost his watch. He
may, perhaps, work a few minutes

it, but the mere possession of a

per cent termination, and a good
many tests show various percentages
varying from Is to 70. There are so
many of these low tests that all the

suspicion until every farmer makes
his own test and knows exactly what
his seed will do. Farmers having 80

find ready sale for their surplus.
The Minnesota experiment station
recommends the following method of
testing seed corn: Take a box SO
inches square, and from 4 to inches
deep Fill it with sawdust, sand or
dirt. Moisten it WELL Take a piece of
sheeting large enough to cover the
top of the box. Mark it off into two
inch squares with lead pencil and
number the squares. This makes
324 squares, or spaces enough to test
the seed ears needed for twenty acres.
Next, get three or four six-inch
boards. Divide them into ~ inch
spaces by driving ten penny nails

seed cannot be secured. In that case
use the 80 per cent seed, but plant
one more kernel to each hill than is
the custom. Much better results will
come from using 100 per cent seed.
The temperature for testing should be
between so and 80 degrees.
If it is not possible to make single
ear test. test of the bulk should be
made. For this testing two plates will
suffice. Partly fill one plate with sand
or dirt; count out 100 kernels just as
they come. Stick these points down
ward in the sand. Moisten the sand
thoroughly and turn the other plate
over the whole. Set the "germinator"
(the two plates) in warm room and
keep the sand or dirt moist. In five or
six days the amount of termination can
be noted. A low or weak termination
now means a much lower or weaker
one, or a total failure, at planting
time. Observe closely the terminated
seed when counting, and reject all
seeds as not terminated which do
not have both roots and stem, and a
strong, vigorous growth. If seed tests

to make the individual ear test, but

journalism loses it's brightest
light and the state one of it's
ablest citizens. Mr.. Heatwole
served several terms in congress
from the old third district and
did credit to himself and his
state. He Was one of the ablest
and shrewdest politicians the
Northwest ever knew. He made
few promises but kept them, and
was always true to his friends,
traits that contributed more than
any other one thing to his sue
cess in the political arena. Joel
was a good fighter but he always
fought fair. He was a power in
Minnesota politics, and during
the past few years of his life did
much good in turning the
searchlight upon the dark places.
His was a strong personality.
He was a prince among men, a
courteous gentleman loved by
his friends and admired by his
enemies. There is widespread
mourning among the newspaper
boys of the state, now that he
has laid down his work and gone
to his eternal rest. Peace to
his ashes.

President Taft seems to have
heard something. He made a
speech in New England lauding
the tariff and the next day that
Massachusetts Democrat was
elected to congress by $4,000
majority in strong Republican
district. When big Bill" got
back to Washington he hustled
to urge congress to do something
to help along the proposed tariff
commission. It's not a half bad
idea to listen to what the people
say occasionally, and then to try
to give them something they
want. Give Taft time and he
may make good, but just now he
is not the most popular man in
the country, not by good deal.
