A MODERN INCIDENT.

& 1t was good enough for my
father and it's good enough for me. "
How often we have heard that from
our old moss-back citizens when
some improvement of old methods
was suggested, whether in private
business or public affairs, and what
a hold-back it has been to industrial
progress and to economic conserva-
ton The thought just now arises
in reading of a recent incident in
Virginia. A lumberman bought
fifty million feet of standing yellow
pine; before he was ready to cut it.;
a sag in the market made the
operation by ordinary methods a
losing venture. To hold the timber
land for a higher market, meant
tied up capital, interest and taxes.
He solved the problem by simply
equipping his saw mills with thin
band-saws. The saws that had
been used sliced out of the log
a pathway-called kerr -fve-six-
teenths Of an inch wide, each time
they cut a one-inch board. In
producing four planks a fifth was
destroyed in saw-dust. The saws
saws he substituted bit out a kerr
three-sixteenth of an inch wide.
The result was the saving of one
plank to every nine sawed, and
that one plank not only overcame the
loss that would have been incurred
had the old saws been used, but
gave him a profit of $4,000, from
his whole operations.

WOMAN'S VOTE.

Does the normal woman really
want to vote? That is the first
question awaiting answer before
serious thought can be given to the
cause of woman S suffrage by people
not identified with that movement.
Mrs. Humphrey Ward says "the
normal woman, and especially the
married woman, lives in irreparable
ignorance of politics because she is
so much engrossed in her own
business, to which Sir Henry
Pollock, a leading woman suffragist
of London says:
Does Mrs. Humphry Ward really
suppose the normal man has no
business of his own, or spends all
his time in meditating on the
principles of the Constitution? In
fact, he has so much business that
he Is shrewdly tempted to leave
politics to a professional class
which Is VIGOROUSLY the great
drawback and peril of modern
democracy. / think the enfran-
chisemen1 Of women would, like
proportional representation, tend

an educated man. Sumner had an
entirely different ,set of circum-
stances and tasks, and was an
educated man. The country school
must educate through country life
for life in the field, city or office. The
same result, a trained mind in
a sound body, may be reached by
different roads. We have used the
Latin and Greek roads with other
paths as remote; and many men
have found life through these anci-
ent roadways; but the knowledge of
our own language and its mastery,
the knowledge of our own history
and its Inspirations, the knowledge
of Physics, Chemistry and Botany
as they find illustration at our own
doors, can lead to life-for some Of
us a better life than by roads
remote. The country must solve
its own problems. The country
school is especially under obliga-

a farm school, such as we understand
is now being established at Lyndon

THEN AND NOW.

Chairman De Boer, in his adj
mirable address to the Republican
State Convention, called attention
to the fact that many of the So
called progressive measures of to-
day are not original with either the
Republican or Democratic parties.
but had their birth with dissatis-
fed members of both parties, and
as long as eighteen years ago the
National Peoples Party, which is
now a myth, demanded direct
primaries, graduated income tax,
postal savings banks, the initiation
and referendum, governmental con-
troll of railroads, conservation of
public resources and other govern
mental policies, in ill accord with
general public sentiment then, but
now advocated by the progressives
of both the old parties.
SO far have we gone along that
once considered revolutionary path
way that Ex-senator Allen of
Nebraska, the long distance talker,
once one of the leading lights of
Populism, says present day Demo-
crazy and Republicanism make him
feel old-fashioned. However, fiat

SHAKESPEARE.

Now comes Lewis F. Bostelman,
who has made literary history his
LIES work and is said to have the
most complete data referring to
Shakspearean biography ever
brought together under one roof.
He advances a strong argument,
backed by abundant historical re-
ferences to prove that the author
of many of Shakspeare's plays was
Roger, the fifth Earl of Rutland,
part of whose estates lies along the
river Avon, higher up than STRAIT
ford. Ben Jonson S ambiguous
poem, printed in the first folio,
mentions the "Swan of Avon,
meaning Rutland, instead of Shaks-
peare. tempest is Rutland's bio
graphy, and for that reason was
put in the front of the first folio,
the customary place for the bio
graphies of authors in those days.
"Much Adoo About Nothing" is
the story of incidents leading to the
marriage of Rutland and Lady
Elizabeth, only daughter of the
celebrated Sir Philip Sidney. The
play Of Hamlet rests upon incidents
attending Rutland's visit to Den
mark as a special representative of
King James l, to invest the Danish
King Christian ", with the Order
of the Garter.

Here's common sense, as few will
care to investigate for themselves
to find out whether the book is as
pronounced or not, but had the
charge been demoralizing or wicked,
it would probably lead to large
extra sales of the book. Such is
the perversity of human nature!

does not necessarily mean that
he can be nominated or elected

Jack Nelson viii Show His Speed
Against Other Entries in Spokcs-

JACK" Nelson, the w. S. c. sprin-
ter, who has covered the lOO-yard
course in the worlds record time of
3 3-5 on several different occasions,
is after one of the prizes offered by
the Spokesman-Reyiew in the contest
now being conducted by that paper.
Jack is one of the most popular
students who ever attended the State
College and is the idol of the college
students and toWnspeople as we'll, and
when his friends get warmed up to
the contest the vote counters will be
obliged to work overtime to count the
votes cast for the popular athlete.
Nelson is a married man and is put
ting himself through college, having
to rely entirely on his own resources
to make both ends meet, and one of
the prizes offered by the Spokane
newspaper would not come amiss He
has done more toward bringing his
school into athletic prominence than
any other individual, and it is safe to
say that many people who would
otherwise never have heard of Pull
man and the Washington State Col
lege have become acquainted with the
fact that such a town and institution
exist through the feats of Jack Mel
son. Last spring he attended the
conference track meet in the east and
took first place in both the 100 and
220-yard dashes, beating out the
fastest men in the United States.
Nelson's friends will work hard for
their candidate and it is up to every
business man, college student and
school boy in the city to get in and
dig, and reciprocate, in a measure, for
the valuable services he has rendered
his college and town. If you have not
the time to attend to it youself you
will find a ballot box at Thorpe's
Smoke House, where you can leave
your votes, and they will be sent in
without any further trouble to you
