School Closes

Friday night closed the com mencement exercise in Carlisle. It was the last night but not the least, as pr. Brough's address was by far the most instructive feature Of the whole week.
 In his discourse he discussed the initial facts in the beginning of a young man or woman's life in the world. He plead for a de velopment of our natural re sources and better schools. He compared the state of Arkansas with the state of New York and upon comparison proved to the audience that we have within the bounds of our state more differ ent resources than the whole of the union combined.
 pr. Brough is indeed an ora tor and deep thinker, for he held the audience spellbound from the time he uttered the first word until the very last.

The Great Missionary Movement

By Mrs. NJ. J. Hansbrough.
 To those who are praying for and hastening the days when righteousness shall reign through out the world; the recent series of laymens meetings have been an inspiration. The final round up in Chicago overwhelms us with wonder, love and praise.
 The auxiliary societi e s through out the land take cogni- zance of this grand evidence of the final triumph of truth against error, light against darkness, of power of the gospel over the kingdom of darkness.
 It has been recognized and ad- mitted that Womans work in founding missions and sending out missionaries through these many years has been the real incentive aid the power behind the throne of this grand move ment Consecrated brethren have taken notice of the earnest endeavor and self sacrificing
 
 spirit of the little band of faith fHl workers, here and there throughout the country and the wonderful results obtained by their heroic efforts.
 It suddenly dawned upon them like cloudburst from a darken- ed sky. why may We not go and do likewise. Being Gods stew ards proper with the wealth of the world in their hands, they began to unload Gods store house of good things for the tOt1 DiCbC OfC1 bili ON Ol odOdl1 . kingdom on earth and to estab- fish on it the kingdom of our Lord and to his son, Jesus Christ.
 We would call attention of our citizens to the Carlisle auxiliary  of the Women's Foreign Mis- sionary Society. We would be glad to have the hearty co-opera- tion of every christian woman in Carlisle.
 The Carlisle auxiliary meets regularly every two weeks in some one of it's members home. Hoping We may have an increas- ed attendance and increased ill., terest we are praying the Lord may send more lah0rers into His harvest.

lay down on pile of lumber near the
shore and watched the light. Soon
he missed it, and almost at once heard
cries for help. He gave the alarm
although others near heard the cries.
A boat near was showed out and he
got in but it leaked so that he was
obliged to give up the effort. Then

finish the raft and it was finally
launched. But the waves had drifted
the boat to within few rods of the

water splashed up into his face.
Neither his head nor shoulders were

body was still warm. he was uncoM-

to revive him were fruitless, though
long continued.

perhaps had some heart shock and
so was unable to raise his head to
keep the dashing waves from reach

MARK centennial
Highlanders to Observe Hun
dredth Anniversary of the
Lady of the Lake"
STILL BLESS THE AUTHOR
Great Poem of Sir Walter Scott
Brings $1,OOO,OOO Season to
Favored Spot.

This year. 1910, is the centennial of
Sir Walter Scott's third great poem,
1.-The Lady of the Lake. which is still
widely read. Today all Scotland rises
up and calls its author blessed, for the
canny Scot calculates that during each
season tourists spend at least $1,000
600 in seeing the spots made historical
by the great master of the English Ian
guage.
The bard of Abbotsford didn't lose
by the poem either. He wouldn't sell
his rights for a mess of pottage, as did
John Milton with his Paradise Lost
or Goldsmith for some Of his classics.
Scott got $4,000 for the copyright and
received more in after life.
Poem Created Sensation.
None of SCOTS former works was
ever looked for with half the anxiety
as was the case with 1.-The Lady of the
Lake" The cantos as they were sent
to the press were read to select circles
by James Ballantyne, and popular
opinion greatly favored them. Every
where it was anticipated that a great
poem would appear, and when it was
published it excited an extraordinary
sensation.
The first edition Of 1850 was soon
sold out, and then followed in quick
succession four editions. so that in a
few months 10000 copies were sold.
All the criticisms of the poem were in
its favor.
In his introduction to the 1880 edi-
ton Scott tells how the poem came to
be written. The Highlanders, with
their ancient manners, habits and Gus
toms, seemed to him to be particularly
adapted to poetry. He was also ia
miliar with the. country, where he was
in the habit of spending the autumn,
while the custom of James Wand
more especially James V.-of walking
in disguise through Scotland afforded
him a hint of which he made the most.
Verified Kings Ride.
Scott took great pains to verify the
accuracy of the local circumstances Of
the poem, one day going into Perth
shire to ascertain If King James could
actually have ridden from Loeb Ven
nachar to Stirling castle within the
time supposed in the poem, and found
that it was quite practicable. And,
Notwithstanding the great success OF
the poem, Scott never grew conceited
over it.
Never was he partisan Of his own
poetry" Ballantyne relates, recitlng an
anecdote. Being one day in SCOTS
library shortly after the poem was
published, he asked Miss Sophia Scott
how she liked it. She replied with
perfect simplicity:
"Oh, have not read it! Papa says
there's nothing so bad for young peo'
pie as reading bad poetry"

Nail Him on the Spot.

When a republican tells you that the
rcfber tariff protects the American Ia
borer from competition with European
pauper labor, call HIM on the spot Take
him to Rhode Island, the home of AL
drich, the high priest of protection.
Show him by the 22nd annual report
trial statistics these facts:
Wages of operative in wooden and
worsted mills, 81 to 50 a week, so per
cent of operatives foreign born.
Wages in silk mills, 81 to So a
week; 80 per cent of employs foreign
born
wages in cotton mills, 81 to So a
week; so per cent of operatives foreign
bern.
Wages in rubber factories, So to SO
per week, 70 per cent of employees for
eign born"
Where does the American laborer
come in at in Rhode Island? Princely
~ salary paid, and largely TO ''for-
eign born pauper labor too. The bold,
naked truth about a high protective
tariff is that it protects nobody but the
millionaire manufacturers and trust
mPgnates. All this talk about it keep
ing the American laborer from coming
into competition with European pauper
labor is a sham, a deceit, a delusion.
Almost every day in the year coach
load of 'dagos" cross the Mississippi
into Missouri. Who sent for them
Corporation. Who is paying their way
over here? Corporation. What do the
corporations want with them? To take
the place of American 1aDorers at one
half the salary.
And yet these same corporations, the
beneficiaries of the high tariff laws.
pirate about protecting the American
/ laborer. Don't let any republican with
his feet under the pie counter, make
that argument to you and get away
without hearing from Rhode Island.

Kansas, made the issue squarely be-
tween himself and Stubs, and Stubs
won by an overwhelming majority.
1t was Curtis who dragged Taft into
it. 1t was Curtis who Said that vote
for Stubs was a vote against Taft,
and the people accepted that issue
and nearly doubled Stubs majority
of two years ago. But Taft was not
the issue in this fight. The rebuke
for him was merely political-not
fundamental. The issue was the
tariff-the moral side of the tariff.
The newspapers more than any
other one agency won this fight for
free state. And now Kansas joins
the ranks of the free states that have
repudiated Cannonism and the DOM
ination of Aldrich. In the whole
west not republican state conven-
ton has Endorsed the Payne-Aldrich
bill. Kansas will not. Kansas is
free. The republican party is free.
We are now free men in Kansas,
ready with the old Kansas spirit to
serve a free, progressive country.

Now a Free Kansas,

William Allen White in Emporia
Gazette: The fight to free the re-
publican party of Kansas from the
domination of the great business
interests of the east is won. The
fgnt was won on the moral side of
the tariff issue.
Little else was discussed. Little
else interested the people. When
Bristow, Murdoch, Stubs and Cum
Minis talked to the people of Kansas
they turned out by the acre. When
Senator Curtis and the standpat con-
gressr.en tried to make Taft the issue
the people turned away. Taft was
dragged into this fight as a shield for
his friends. He was battered down
unnecessarily in order to rebuke
those who sought to hide behind him.
: His share in the defeat is nons the
less humiliating because his friends
those whom he consulted and favored
in Kansas matters, selhshly brought
( his name into the contest. The men
who are making the fight for free
state ignored Taft. His name was
not mentioned in any way by those
who were making the insurgent fight
But the standpatters, from governor
down to congressman, said: "a vote
against us is a vote against Taft
So the people voted against the stand
patters and let the inference go where
it would. This is unfortunate, but
Taft has his cowardlyi friends, who
hoped to conjure with his name to
thank for the result Of the issue.
