We believe that the settlers who go
upon the public domain and cultivate
and improve their land in good faith
and resided upon it for three years
have given sufficient evidence of their
good faith as hcme builders and we
therefore favor the shortening Of the
residence period for homesteaders to
the term of three years.
Holding that it is the states duty to
aid bringing about the most favorable
conditions for successful farming we
favor the passage by the next legisla-
ture of effective pure seed laws, and
laws guaranteeing to purchasers that
fruit trees shall be true to name.
We favor such amendments to the
grain commission law and such ade-
quate appropriations for the use of the
gram commission of the state as will
make effective the work of such in
spection and control Of public scales
and the inspection and grading of grain,
that thereby market for Idaho grain

established.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1910-12-25

CT lodged complaint against his son for breaking and entering. The young man was paroled in due time to suit able position. About a month later his mother wrote that she had taken John away from his work and was going to keep him home and pay him s3 a week to be good boy. l found other em- ployment for this young man and in structed him that If he did not keep this position he would be returned for violating his parole. He kept this place four months and then left. He was re- turned to the institution. Today, after a second parole, he is married and has settled down. He has a pleasant home, three children and a good trade. He has had his full release for two years.
 Another case will illustrate what I mean by too bad a home. A boy who was sent to the reformatory for high way robbery in time was paroled. I visited his home, which was not fit for a paroled inmate to enter. The father and mother were both smoking clay pipes and three or four men were drink Ing. It was one of the most filthy houses I have ever entered. I saw at orce the cause of the boys downfall He admitted to me that many a time he had gone home after days work and found his father and mother drink ing and nothing for him to eat. He would then go out on the corner and shoot craps with the boys.
 Experience has shown that for the real work of the reformatory to be sat- isfactorily done the maximum term for

the development of the business war ranted, but these obligations were more than offset by the increased commission, for now he was to get 9 per cent. He told how he managed to make good head way despite the handieaps he encountered and he asked for a modest amount of credit from the bank while he. was get ting established. tr ss'
 The banker made inquiries and decided to risk $500 on Caldwell.
 Corporations with big capitalization are started sometimes with little in the way of funds behind them. The s10O, 900 corpo- ration of Caldwells didn't have much to begin with, but it never was necessary for Caldwell to ask for further credit. He put such an amount of energy into his work that results came fast. Within a week of incorporating his new company he made one sale to the Canadian Pacific railway that meant thousands of dollars to him. He had to establish offices and salesrooms in Quebec, Montreal, Kings ton and various other cities. It no longer was possible for him to go out and sell. His business now was to get statesmen and utilize them to the best advantage He instiled into his men a little of his own great energy and he bred in them the firm belief that no typewriter ever made was worthy to be considered se- riously as having the merits of his ma chine.
 Canada has no record of commercial success brighter or freer from stain than that of John Caldwell. It did not matter that his machine did not rank first in the states. It ranked first in Canada Not only that, but in sales it aggregated more than all other typewriters combined. All Canada knows the machine that Caldwell pushed The business that started in a little office in Toronto spread and spread until all the vast territory from Nova Scotia to the Pacific was covered by the Caldwell salesmen.i .s'' + For ten years John Caldwell led the

writers practically had the Canadian ter ritory to themselves. Caldwell was the only person in Canada selling the machine that should be represented in every city. He proposed, as the New York people were so busy developing their selling or ganization in the states. that he organ ize on his own account a selling company for the Canadian territory. He suggested s100,o00 corporation and offered s20,0Oo of the stock to the president for the ex
 elusive right to the Canadian territory.
 The man in New York read the propo- sition and was impressed favorably. He had no chance to lose and had a good chance to gain, so he promptly sent formal letter of acceptance. His hands were full with the work of handling the business in the United States and he was glad to enter into an arrangement that would relieve s'him of the burden and

bother of Canada.
 Caldwell, in his earnestness and enthu- siasm, not only had made headway in selling, but had won friends and admirers. He no longer was the stolid, plodding man who had hoisted baggage into cars or had hood the little garden patch. He was brisk, sharp-eyed, alert, business like. Even in speech he had changed greatly. He was not slow any longer, but spoke readily and with fervor. At 40 he was new man.
 The small measure of success that had come to him so inspirited him that he had no hestitation in going to one of the To- ronto bankers and putting his whole scheme before him. He explained that in taking the whole Canadian territory he assumed considerable. obligations. in way of displaying the machine properly, ad vertising it and establishing offices as

 trade. Then one day he wrote to the president in New York that he proposed to retire. To Canada went the president in agitation, if not alarm. No typewriter concern in the world ever had salesman such as Caldwell and he must not be per nitted to retire. If his health was break ing down he must have the care of the greatest of specialists to fit him to return, to his work. If he was dissatisfied a new contract. more liberal than the old one would be drawn.
 But John Caldwell was not in waning health and he was not dissatisfied with the contract. His health never was bet ter
 The president asked him what was the reason for his announcement

which the first time criminal may be sentenced is very often insufficient. This sentence should be made actually inde- terminate While the reformatory in a legal sense is penal institution, the young men are not sent solely for pun ishment but rather to give time to con- slider, with helpful surroundings, the certain results of evil deeds. While in the reformatory a mans conduct is rated according to industry, skill, study and behavior. They are taught to work, they are given the advantages of T school and required to make reasonable progress.
 The idea of a three months reward for scholarship, industry and skill origi- mated with Dr. Frank Moore. the pres ent superintendent, and, as far as is known, is in. use only in this institution. It has been given a thorough trial and is an incentive to every inmate wno earnestly desires parole and release to live up to the full privileges thereby offered
 A great many sof our inmates are of the lower class. a large number being foreigners, who get into trouble simply through ignorance, others come from middle class families and some from the best of homes After dismissal they secure places in all lines or work, as motormen and conductors. as engineers, as stenographers, firemen. iron workers, electricians, farmers, chauffeurs, and in many other kinds of work. Almost all are anxious to let us know of their sue cess. Only the other day I received a letter which is fair sample of many that l get:
 "Mr Charles Moore-Dear- Sir: I am steadily employed as chauffeur and earn from sS5 to s1O0 per month. I have not earned less than 50 a month since my release, and I am putting the eggs away for future use.
 "I am now married and would like to pay you a visit. I wish I. could only see the day when all the boys were free like myself. I suffered very much during the f1fty-three weeks I was there and as long as have any common sense I shall do right"
 We have every reason from our ex- perience at this reformatory for believ- ing that in every life there is better

LovabIeness of William James

From Chronicle and Comment in the
 December Bookman.
 Throughout the abundant social life of William James he was so frank and so obviously friendly that it was impos- sible to take offense at anything he said and this made it easier for him than for most men to strike the person. al note In human intercourse. He could get at once upon a footing which made basis for intimacy, if occasion called for this; footing, which, in any case, left each new acquaintance feeling tho gates of his own mind unlocked for him. He said jokingly, one day, that when he met a new person he asked him first his age and then his income and rhis was almost literally true. Further more, these friendly relationships that he was so ready to establish did not all ways end with social courtesies. Gen erous in deed as he was in word and thought, he gave without stint, now. perhaps, a contribution of money to . friend in need. now a book from his library, now time and friendly counsel, offered to show appreciation and sym pathy or to meet distress. This sense of kindliness was thorough going. He had made it a principle, so he told me, to abstain from unfavorable personal criticism unless called for by some need. It was a rare event to hear him pass an nnfriendly judgment, and he disliked to hear it done by others. He appreciated keenly the peculiarities of his acquaintances, and could. character ,ize them with accuracy and wit. But such comments were always kindly or marked by light and playful touch, devoid of sting.
