Bound to BE Polite Under All
Circumstances-PilI of
Burning Gas.

BERLIN, Dec. 10.-(special to The Bee)
"A League Of Politeness." and organiza-
ton which aims at intoxicating better man
ners among the people, has been founded
by q German woman, who has been in
spired by a similar society in Rome. In
Difference to the parent organization the
Berlin league has chosen the Italian motto.
Pro Gentilezza." These words will be
emblazoned upon a little medal worn
where Germans are accustomed to wear
the insignia or orders. The idea is that
glance at the "tansman" will annihilate
any inclination to indulge In bad temper
or discourteous language. Any polite
person. is eligible for membership. The
attempt TO supplant politeness for incivility
IS TO be directed especially at conductors,
railway ticket collectors, cab drivers. Gus
toms and other officials" including the
insolent swashbucklers who are officers OF
the German army.
The burning natural gas pillar at Neuen-
gamma Is still blazing. Thousands Of peo-
pie daily leave Hamburg to see the strange
spectacle. The gas Is burning in three i'm
msnss tets, which at times are visible
miles away and are accompanied by a
roar which Is audible for six miles. The
adjacent ground trembles with the rush Of
gas. The latter was discovered accidentally
while men were boring for water II is not
known whether the existence OF gas indl-
Gates the presence OF petroleum or coal
below the surface. II is calculated that
$4,000 worth OF natural gas has been
wasted
local theatrical manager has had his
managerial license revoked at the end OF
a law court trial on the ground that his
character units him to hold one. The
verdict recited that the evidence left nc
doubt that the honor OF actresses engaged
at the theater could not safely be intrusted
10 his keeping, He appealed from the YER
dict, alleging that although the prOsecu-
ton was instituted by the royal police ad
rninistration. its real instlgators were bus
mess rivals. His defense was that many
actresses who testified had rehashed ire
spOnsible gossip. To the accusations OF
well known actress to whom the accused
admitted that he had made advances, hii
retort was that he was sincerely In low,
with her. He has not only lost his license

MIR. warren's Compliments.

HARVARD, Neb, Dec. 9.-To the Editor
OF The Bee: AS my subscription for The
Bee has expired, please stop sending IT, 1
have had a tory paper in my house long
enough.
notice in your editorial this morn
ing the statement that toryism in
England dies hard. but 1t is bound ultl-
mately to go. That statement is likewise
true Of America. 1 think you are the
most inconsistent people ever saw. on the
same page you laud the liberals in Eng
land and condemn Representative Norris
and the insurgents for fighting for popular
government I'm America. You have defended
high protection, a tory policy, the liquor
traffic, a tory policy, government by the
vested interests as represented by Taft
and Ballinger, twin bfothers to the policy
of Balfour and Landsdowne, and oppose the
initiative and referendum because the
people would have a chance to vote the
saloons and brothels out of Omaha. 1
should think the last election would be
sufficient to show you that toryism cannot
flourish In America, for while tory repub-
licans I'm nearly every instance went down
to defeat the insurgents doubled their rep
presentation in both branches OF congress.
II your paper had mad its way we would
have had democrat elected as governor
of this state. But with a county option can
didate and platform we carried the state
by 1900. while II a tory republican like
Rosewater OF Webster had been nominated
he would have been defeated worse than
the tory Burkett
I suppose am wasting ink writing this,
as ] have noted that you never give space
| in your paper to anyone except tories like
Webster ct al, defending Taft and Bal
lingerism. or democrats like Bryan, oppos-
| ing county option. But that doesn't mat
ter. You cannot prevent the spread OF pop
ular government anywhere, in England MOI
| in America, and yO IT paper will not gain
/ in the long run for espousing toryism

Business Course in High school.


OMAHA. Dec. s.. 1siO-To the Editor OF
The Bee: II Mr. Boyles is quoted cor
rectly by your reporter. he corroborates
my idea that commercial course should
be installed in the first and second year in
our high school. He says. Although most
Of our pupils are Omaha people, they are
those who are not eligible for high school,
or they are those who have spent two or
three years there"
Now Of the approximate 600 pupils that
are entering our high school, only about
300 graduate, so that about 400 are dropping
ont during the four years and these are
probably the ones who are making up the
majority OF the matHculates in the com
merc4al colleges. They drop out from our
high school because they either can not
afford to continue their studies or they
have no inclination for the academic
courses but have a desire to take up COM
merciai branches in order to make live
hhoOd az the earliest possible opportunity.
For these students a thorough course In
commercial branches should be Installed

BIGGER PROFITS IN FARMING

adoption OF up-to-date methods. In
our humble estimation this ia the most
important Issue confronting tho peo-
pie of Vermont as well as of other
states Mt the present timo. The mnn-
nor In which many farms arc neglect
ed Is almost criminal. Tho man who
pronounced the man making two
blades or grass grow where ono grew
before bencfactor of the race, utter
ed truth which applies TO all crops.
particularly with reference TO ccroals
ana othcr products constituting human
tood. AS President J. j. Hill of the
Great Northern railroad has So woIl
STATED the time Will soon como when
the production of sufficient food for
the American people Will become a
serious problem. The present high
prices of all kinds of meat products
should serve to show us that the time
in question may he much nearer than
We dream.
Onr Vermont farmers rs we'll as our
whole population should be more i'm
mcdiatoly concerned over our present
conditions and needs. There Is no rea E
son why our farmers should not be
changing largely in tho production Of
poultry and mutton and pork, and to
n certain extent veal. although the
present demand for dairy products
prccludcs the latter to certain ex-
tcrt A good supply OF fertilizer is
tho great need of the farm. and this
with thorough ana up-to-date methods
OF cultivation viii. not only enable
Vermont to supply its own food prod
ucts moro and more, but il will also
moan bigger profits for our farmers
with practically the same Investment
and the retention within our borders
of large sum of money which now
goes to other States
Every town IN Vermont should be-
come aroused to the need Of starting n
new movement in this direction, and
the public spirited men in each com
munity should resolve to do this
promptly and thoroughly.

Went quickly TO the room wherein

In one wee baby hand, he placed
The grandest flag Ger seen;
Within the other gently put

Life has no better start.
And as you grow. their meaning will
Sink deeply in your heart
No true Ncrmonter loves so much.
In all the world | ween,
One thing above our dear flag,
sprig of evergreen.
The little Lad, when older grown,
Stood at his Erandsire's knee:
And heard the stirring tales of men
Who made our country free.
Then eagerly, with face aglow,
He cried what does It mean.
That second to our flag. you love

HIS erandsire proudly told him then,
How In the long ago.

Their hearts with hope serene;

From valley, farmland. hill and plain
