ONE of the political sensations OF the
past week was the dismissal from office,
by order of President Taft, OF Clifford
Pinchot, chief of the Division Of Forestry.
For months past there have been serious
differences between Mr.. Pinchot and his
immediate superior, Secretary of the In
terio. Pallinger, on the question OF con-
servation of public lands and resources.
Mr.. Pinchot has followed the policy Of
former President Roosevelt in strictly
guarding from individuals and corpora
tons the public lands that have been
gobbled up so reckleSSly in times past,
the vast mineral wealth that has slipped
through Uncle Sans fingers, and now
the water rights and water powerthat are
so valuable. He thinks that these re-
sources should be retained and utilized
for the welfare Of the public instead of
being given away for the enrichment Of
individuals. On the other hand, Secre-
tary Ballinger has favored, apparently,
the development" of these resources by
turning them over to capitalists and cor
porations, and it is charged that he has
been suspiciously free in disposing of the
governments property. President Taft
seems to have sided with Secretary Bal
linger, but Forester Pinchot has stoutly
maintained his position. The friction has
been getting warmer and warmer, and
last week when Mr.. Pinchot wrote let
ter TO Senator Dolliver, which the, latter
read in the Senate, criticising at least by
inference the administration, the Presi-
dent Immediately ordered the dismissal
OF the Forester.
II is generally believed that the PreSi-
dent has made the mistake of his life in
this matter. The people of the country
have entire confidence in Mr.. Pinchot.
and know that ne has been doing them
splendid service. They are suspicious
of Secretary Ballinger. They do not like
the Presidents action in forcing out of
the public service so efficient and honest
a man.

I'm MemOriam.

In loving remembrance OF our much loved and es-
teemed friend and brother, Arthur l.. Moler, who
departed this life December 9. 1909. Mr. Moler was
a man OF strict integrity. honest and upright IN all
his dealings with his iellOw-man. He was Foreman
OF one OF the quarres at Bakerton for many years,
and he won the love and esteem OF all his employees
by his kind and genial disposition. The writer was
one OF his employees for a couple OF years, and al
ways found him the Same. His sudden death cast
a gloom over the community in which he lived. No
one thought the end was so near, as he walked out
that evening and told some OF the hands that he was
going ont TO work the next morning. But the one
that doeth all things well called him home to that
city beyond where there is no more work but where
there is happiness. Brother Moler was 4 consistent
member OF the BlkertoI N. E. Church. South He
was always found at his post ready TO discharge his
duty. He was man who had few enemies. The
writer attended the funeral on December 18th at
BakeTtOn Church. There was large attendance OF
sorrOwing friends and relatives. who followed his
remains TO his last resting place, Elmwood Gene
terry. His employees were so attached TO him that
even his cOlOred employees came TO the church TO
take the last look al his eleSS body. He leaves a
widow and four grown sons 10 mourn his loss. He
was member OF the independent Order OF Odd
Fellows, also OF Cliff City Lodge, Shield OF Honor.
loving one from us has gone
A voice we loved is Stilled,
A place made vacant in his home
That never can be filled.
The golden gates were opened wide.
A gentle voice said come,
An angel from the other side
Welcomed our loved one home

over the Pinchot trouble, he cannot con-

THEMlRR0R BABY WAS CRYING
And That Seemed to Have the Desir-
able Reforming Effect on the
Real Child.


"It cannot be new way to attempt
to quiet crying baby" said the
Young man, who couldn't be expected
to know a great deal about children,
ebnt It certainly was effective.
aThe child was sitting up in car
riage red faced and bawling, with it's
mouth wide open and tears streaming
ont OF the corners Of its eyes. The
nurse was making unavailing efforts
to miet the infant as she wheeled il
along.
AT 4 corner there was a store that
had square post in one corner Of
the show window The sides Of the
post we're covered with looking glass
"The nurse wheeled the carriage up
close ia the window and the baby
stin howling, got glimpse Of the
image 81 its angry faced wailing self
in the looking glass The effect was
marvellous The child stopped crying
al once and surveyed the glass with
an Air almost Of being ashamed Then
IT broke into a smile. and when the
looking glass child also laughed II
waved a tiny mitteEed fist and was
borne away. chuckling
This. Of course. can be explained
on scientific grounds as being only a
manifestation of curiosity on the part
81 the child but the suddenness Of the
reform instituted by he mirror was
impressive % those who saw it."

FOB GOOD PLAIN PIE CRUST
One Thing to Remember Is to Touch
II as Little as Possible with
the Hands.

Cut one cup (half pound Of but
ter into three cups Of -four; add one
teaspoonfuI Of salt and sufficient ice
water to moisten and roll A small
teaspoonful OF baking powder is an
addition; half teasponful salt The
secret Of making good pastry is to
touch it as little as possible with the
hand To make the pies nicer, one
quarter Of the shortening may be left
out and the pastry for the upper
crust can be rolled fiat. dotted with
butter and lard Sprinkle with -four,
fold together and roll again. repeating
this operation until the shortening is
used This will give fiazy upper
crust A little less shortening can be
used with the baking powder and the
results be as good. Some cooks prefer
lard to butter as making whittier
crust; others prefer the butter. AZ it
makes a more faky crust.
