home Of Mrs. w. L. Nichols on Fifth
stree north. Each lady present show
ed the greatest interest in the work.
The afternoon was spent in prepar-

is being well and effectively done. In
fact the ladies are delighted at the
showing that has been made and they
hope to be able to begin the finishing
touches on the new home by the middle
of the coming week. 1t is hoped that
the next meeting of the association can
be held in the home.
1t was a pleasure for some Of the
members to be able to state that sew
raj organizations and firms had al
ready planned to furnish the rooms
throughout, and some OF them with
new furniture. These gifts came I'M

EFFECT OF The
PRESENT COUNT
CENSUS MAY SHIFT POLITICAL
POWER OF THE couNTRY-IN-
CREASE IN POPULATION MEANS
MORE CONGRESSMAN FOR THE
NORTHWESTERN STATES.

| What the new census will bring
forth relative to state congressional
delegations is causing considerable con-
Germ to party leadres, as it may result
in a shifting Of political power i'm the
sixty third congress. The congress to
be lected this fall will be chosen under
the present apportionment. The far
northwest and some portions of the
south have been filling up fast since
the twelfth census, much faster than
the older portions Of the union.
The states of the miGdle west and
New York and Pennsylvania also have
gained, but not in the same proper
ton, and while it is possible no state
has actually lost in population, yet
some of them have remained so nearly
stationary that if the basis of repre-
sentation is increased they must neces-
sarily lose some of their present num-
Der.
Each of the twelve previous appor-
tionments have made some shifting Of
the delegations in all the states, with
the single exception of Rhode Island
Little Rhody" has chung to her two
members for 100 years.
In most OF the states there have
been periodical losses, but in nine all
changes have been by increases. For
instance, Arkansas began with one and
has increased to seven; California be-
gan with and hes grown to eight:
Illinois with one has increased to
twenty-five; Indiana from one to thir-
teen; Louisiana from one to seven;
Mississippi from one to seven; Mis-
souri, from one to sixteen; Texas from
two to sixteen and Wisconsin from one
to eleven.

TO BEAUTiFY COLUMBIA

Street improvement is the greatest
need of Columbia A person may go
several blocks on a splendid brick
street, and suddenly find himself at a
iumping-off place, as it were, where
the smooth pavement suddenly ends,
and a rough and rocky street begins.
The need of this work is consistency.
A block of good streets here and there
is altogether inadequate, and the value
of the paved streets is greatly de-
creased by the much greater area of
unpaved streets.
Columbia is in the midst of an IN
parallel era Of growth. Many addi-
tons have been made to the city with
in the last five years, but most Of
these additions detract from the en-
tire beauty OF the city because of
the cramped manner in which they
are laid out Narrow streets ara the
chief fault of these additions. While
land may seem to be at the pinnacle
of price, it is not so valuable as 70
warrant the streets being laid out so
narrow as they have been recently.
The beauty of Columbia and the ulti-
mate value of the land adjoining these
streets will be materially affected by
these narrow streets. Then, too.
houses deserving of a considerable
yard and beautiful lawn are being
erected on lots as small as those en-
ployed for this purpose in the crampei
position of 4 crowded city.
To remedy these conditions it would
seem advisable that the municipal au,
thorities appoint a board to supervi Sc
the laying out of additions to the city
and see that they are properly plotted
with a view to the ultimate beauty and
welfare of Columbia, and to obtain the
much needed street improvements as
soon as possible.

BUSINESS AND THE FARMER

1t is usually admitted that farming
is the greatest business of today. II
ought to be, certainly, since it is upon
the farmer that every human beins
has to depend for his living. That
is the reason, great many persons
believe, that business activity depends
on the activity of the farmer.
While farming has been done more
extensively in the last decade, the
acreage has not so greatly increased
Not so much valuable new land has
been given over to farmers the last
ten years as was done the preceedin.
ten years. 1t might be supposed then
that the number of farmers has not in,
creased so much, but that the wealth
of farmers has greatly increased.
They have been greatly benefited by
the high cost of living, because ii
great demand and little competition
The trusts and railroads have made
things more difficult, also, but if an
increase in farm lands could be made,
such as was made between 1890 AMI
1900, and new farmer could be
placed on every $50 acres Of the in,
creased land, there would be a much
greater production of the necessities
Of life and prices would fall.

Green hands will be the result for
those who drop letters in the mail
boxes without taking time to admire
the new coat of paint today. The
boxes are painted bright green, known
las government letter box paint. The
painting is government contract:
this makes the boxes allover the coun.
try uniform. They are painted about
once a year, this is decided, however
by the postmaster, who has them
painted whenever they need it. The
Columbia postmaster, E. A. Remley
decided that the boxes need a new
coat right now.

FOR GENTLER JUDGMENT

You've seen common drunk"
come down the street. His blearei
eyes and shaking frame make you
snudder and exclaim,' The brute!"
And the Pharisee prayed thus, say
ing Lord. l thank thee that | am not
ike unto this man, a publican and a
sinner
If the heart of every man and wom-
an were barred, there would be found
evil in greater or less degree. Good
and evil exist together. They grow
from a common root. This is human
nature. If man is known as evil,
why shun him and take occasion 10
pat ourselves on the backs and say,
o, 1 am much better than he"
1t is the fire that tests the metal.
and perhaps if we had his temptations
and misfortunes we would be great
deal worse than he is. Look into
your own heart and see what you dis
cover there. You will find tendencies,
temptation in the embryo, which you
must fight to overcome. Love is the
most powerful force in the world. 1t
brings evildoers to the path Of virtue
and keeps many millions pure.
And this is good old world after
al. You can't imagine how many are
inc citizens, helping one another over
the steep places Of life. Think it over
some time when you see or hear CT
someone who has erred. Reserve
judgment till you have examined your
self.

GOOD FIELD FOR INTERURBAN

What has become of the electric
road which was to run from Kansas
City to st. Louis? After all the n,
gotiations and proposals from the pro.
posed company, must central Missouri
wait longer for an electric line?
Missouri, which ranks seventh in
population, surely has ample opport;l,
mites for interurban development.
Such roads are cause of denser pop
ulated districts, and would make traf-
fic. No better field for an electric
line may be found in Missouri than
the proposed road between st. Louis
and Kansas City.
The interurban roads are bound to
come. They are eminently success
full, and offer a competition to the
steam roads which may solve our in
terstate commerce problem. Less cap
ital is required for maintenance, many
OF the disagreeable features of travel
are eliminated, and shorter time IS
obtained by such roads.
If large companies do not wish TO
try such an experiment. an excellent
opportunity awaits smaller groups of
promoters to build a ST Louis-Kan-

LARGEST CIRCULATION
IN BOONE COUNTY.
O'NIEL'S PHILOSOPHY.

In a recent issue of the Kansas City
Star is a story headed From news
boy to magnate." Ii is about Be"
nard Francis O'Niel, who thirty years
ago with seventy-siX other orphan
boys was sent out west by the Chi
drens' Aid Society. Recently he re-
turned a multi-millionaire. He says
that it does not make any difference
whether a boy is ragged news-boy
or high school graduate with money.
he will succeed if he is honest and
wants to; that he must not be afraid
of hard work; and that the boy who
can smile at hard luck is built Of
the material that succeeds.
Mr.. O'Niers philosophy of success
and failure applies outside as we'll as
in the business world. 1t is not the
philosophy of The Down and Our
Club" He does not say that success
is Just a matter of luck and that merit
no longer counts-that the bigges.
CRATER has the greatest success. His
message is that self and not fate de-
termines success. And he succeeded.

that accompany the game. The play
