This plan is an ideal conception in
tended for the man or woman who
wants to live outdoors. In fact, it is
compromise between the outdoors
and the indoors. The side of the porch,
for instance, adjacent to the kitch-
en-, can be utilized as an outdoor din
ing room, and If all the remaining
porch space is not needed for bed
rooms it can be set aside for other
purposes. The building itself is "a

q Humble Invention.

To forget the inventions of the hour
ia an impossibility. They are before
one at every turn, and many Of them
contain possibilities vast and much
discussed. For that reason it Is well
occasionally to contemplate some in
ycntion of the past which works un-
remittingIy and spicucusly for
the welfare of mankind. Consider the
air brake How many, when they take
a Journey by rail, ever take thought
of the device which stands ready to
insure safety from possible accidents?
All are so used to the sibilant noise
below the cars that they never consid-
er it's portentousness. Yet by this ap-
plication of the power Of compressed
air. tens of thousands of lives have
been preserved, and railroad travel has
been made more expeditions. All this
is arrant truism; not word Of it but
what has been said scores of times
before. But we like to dwell upon
the air brake as one Of those typical
inventions which are doing their work
faithfully and humbly while recent
creations get the glory and applause

One of the most unusual romances

of Fig Tree Court, 83 years old. His

than thirty-seven years he was welded
to Hannah Cullwick, servant, and
though the world did not know of the
union, he was devoted to her and she
had as her highest ambition to serve
him and cook for him. He spent many

Portable exertion of breathing the pure

The Center of Population.

When the first census was taken the
center of population of the United States
was twenty-three miles east of Balti-
more. 1t has been travelling slowly
westward almost on the same parallel Of
latitude and in 1900 it was near Column
bus, Ind, about forty miles south of
Indianapolis 1t is believed that it will
have advanced but little farther to the
west when the present census is COM
pleted. But it may be drawn southwark
by the rapid development of Oklahoma
and Texas.
1t seems surprising that the westward
movement has been so slow and that
the present center of population has
marched only about one-fourth OF the
distance from the Atlantic to the Pacific
Coast The population of the Great
West between Kansas and California,
however, remains sparse and shows no
signs OF rapid increase. 1t has been
more than matched in recent years by
the great development of urban COM
munities in the North and Northeast.
Eight Of the twelve largest cities, ac-
cording to the last census, were east OF
the center of population. Probably the
tenth census will make no change in
favor of Western cities. But it is prob
able that the present and the next fol-
lowing census will show a surprising
OF the Southwest over
the Northwest, The only parts of the
United States that are growing in popu-
lation to compare with Oklahoma and
Texas are the city communities of New
York and New Jersey. The admission
of Arizona and New Mexico to State
hood will undoubtedly start these terri |
tories on similar, though not quite so
rapid, road to settlement. Meantime

The Amended Primary.

The action of the Democratic State
Committee in changing its primary cleo.
ton plan will not appreciably affect the
situation as it relates to the factionaI
tee amended its plan so as to make il
entirely unobjectionable as a plan, its
too long delay, and the evident con-
straint OF forced expediency which
moved it to action, would have made
its action ineffective in changing the
attitude Of the opposition, which had
become fixed in its purpose, and which
for more than month had been busy
arranging its campaign.
Besides, the changes made in the pri-
mary plan, and the spirit in which those
changes were made, were not of char
acter to promote the harmony ostensibly
invited by the committee. For instance,
the condition imposed by the commit
tee as a precedent TO a separate judicial
primary discounts the character and in
genuousness of the proposed amend
ment. In the first place, it shows that
the separation was not proposed upon
the ground of the right principle in
volved, but solely for party expediency's
sake. The committee did not assert or
recognize the propriety and duty of
separating judicial nominations as far
as possible from the purely political
nominations and the influence of parti-
san politics, but on the other hand, it
takes pains to assert that the primary
plan as it was originally adopted is both
fair and proper, and that the conces-
sion of a separate primary for judicial
candidates is made for the purpose of
drawing the independent candidate I'M
der the party method.
Again, the separate primary as pro-
posed, would not be free-for-all DEM
ocratic primary in the sense of having
every candidate stand upon his indi-
vidual character and claims before the
voters in the primary election. The
plan as amended contemplates contest
between Democratic factions. 1t pro-
vides, for instance, that the election Off
GERS and clerks shall be selected by a
method of alienation of counties, so
as to give equal representation to the
independent candidates who have an
inounced themselves and the candidates
who have announced themselves under
the original primary plaza fair meth
cd in itself, but a method which en-
phasizes factional contest in the pri-
mary, as distinguished from primary
in which every candidate can invite the
favor Of voters upon his own record
and capabiliB without prejudice OF fac
ton. The fact that some such arrange
ment was necessary emphasizes the
party division and the difficulty OF

An ideal Judiciary would be one en-
tirely separated from party politics. !
would be best * the people could selec
their judges free from political inhuenc,
and without the agency Of party ma
chinery, and it is a pity that in Tennes
see this year it seems the selection o
Judges Of the higher courts must b
inevitably connected wifh political in
Movements and preiudices, despite al
efforts to associate such influences from
the judicial election. For this eondi
ton Of affairs, the Democratic Commit
tee is mainly responsible in its failu r.
at the outset to take scrupulous pains
to remove the judicial nominations as
far as possible from political agitation
and acrimonies.
The committee, by its tardy effort to
amend its primary plan, notwithstand-
ing the prolonged protest against it, lost
its opportunity 1t might have accom-
plished something in allaying the OPP
posing sentiment if it had acted prompt
ly by resembling the whole plan and
adopting new and thoroughly Demo-
cratic plan but by obstinately adhering
to its original action until it was con-
strained by circumstances to attempt a
revision, its effort to restore harmony
is Intellectual. Indeed there was enough
of factionalism in the party before the
committee adopted the first plan. 1t
then had an exceptional opportunity to
promote harmony by thoroughly fair
and open-handed course. The tendency
throughout the State was towards ces-
sation of rancorous contention and strife
within the party and il the State Com
mittee had adopted a wise and just
policy, Democratic factionalism would
have waned But it did the most fool
ish thing that was possible. 1t under
took to perfect machine control, by
machine primary method, and in do
ing so it brought party confusion worse
COMPOUNDED.
And when the committee met to amend
its obnoxious primary plan, it not only
manifested no heartiness OF purpose to
promote the true welfare of Democracy
for the real good of the party and State,
but made changes in its plan grudg-
ingly, simply for the purpose of stem
ming an opposing tide, and with re-
fusal to concede that it had made mis-
take in the first instance. And so, its
changes in the general primary plan,
such as the concession for a judicial
primary and the concession in the man
ner Of selecting delegates to the guber-
Material convention are conditioned and
hampered by the very difficulties, sus-
picions and antagionisms which the
has itself engendered and
encouraged by its determined purpose
md course, backed by the Governor, to
