"A Plea For The Dog"

At the last meeting OF Council steps
were taken to rid the town of 'the dog
nuisance" Other councils knew how
unpopular it was and rather than have
the i'll will of the masses the matter
was dropped, but there seems to be
more OF a desire to press the good
work than ever before
This locality has always been the
haven for dogs, and it is traditional
that the hardy Welshman brought
with him number OF fine dogs, and
one OF the first fox kennels in America
was located near Cooch's Bridge, on
the Welsh Tract
He is mans companion in every
cline and is the only animal that can
be found from "Greenland's icy noun
tain to lndia's coral strand Nature
made them for each other. as he did
the negro and the mule.
He is ever ready to lick the hand
that would strike him, and humbly fol-
low his master even to his grave. His
pitiful howl over the grave of his mas
ter at the dead and solemn hour Of
midnight, has often made him enemies,
who cared little for the hove that
bound them together.

CORN IS KING
EVERYWHERE we see ii

= EVERYWHERE we see the laborer
Shoulder his blade to begin on a siege
sof cutting and we know the first step
in the harvest OF Americas golden
grain is begun.
Not the least valuable among Colum-
bus early discoveries was the maize
or Indian corn.
The Indians imagination, out OF the
significance which all nature possessed
for him, produced the story OF Mon
DAMN, to explain the beginning of
this grain. AS the mighty wrestler
appeared day after day for the contest,
with his waving r'umes and silken
tresses, only to be overcome at last by
the triumphant Hiawatha, we recog-
nize the personihcation OF the corn.
To follow the old legend. his con
queror kept the ground soft and light,
around the buried trophy, in spot
where the sun shone and the rain fell
upon him. Soon the Great Spirit re-
cognized the fast OF Hiawatha and
gave new food to his people.
In white mans language we merely
say corn is native to America prob
ably the special part-Mexico.
Year by year this crop has become
more and more important one. At
present it equals two-thrds OF the
combined crops OF all the other grains.
1t is the farmers favorite every
where. In spite OF the cultivation
which is required and the extra labor
compared with that hecessary for the
other grains, we find it in every direc-
tion. The waving fields in the hot
midsummer Moons, the rustling stalks
laden with the golden grain of autumn,
attract us with fascinating power.
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson says
that the most striking thing in the
worlds agriculture is the value of the
corn crop of 1000 in the United States.
He sets $I72o,ooo,ooo as the figure rep
resenting the returns and notes that
it nearly equals the amount expended
for the clothing OF 100000 people
according to the census of 1000
Quoting the Secretary corn
came up from the soil and ont OF the
air in one hundred and twenty days
$I4,ooo,ooo day for one crop"
He certainly can afford to enthuse
over the bountiful return that Nature
yields for the efforts put forth by man.
''Let other lands, exuting CLEAN
The appe from the pine,
The orange from its glossy green,
The cluster from the vine;
We better love the hardy gift
Our rugged va.es bestow,
So let the good old crop adon,
The hills Our fathers trod;
Still let us, for the golden corn,
Send up our thanks to God!'

The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-07-22
BY Sidney Brooks.


England is looking for the man
behind George v, but she has yet
to find him. 1t has come upon
Engiishmen with almost a shock
to realize how little they know OF
the sovereign who has been called
to reign over them.
When 1t came to dealing with
King George as a man, the Lon
don journals presented to the
world a sort of paragon in wax,
a monster of humdrum respecta-
bility, desiccated effigy of the
conventional qualities, talents and
graces, dehumanized dummy of
decorous commonplace, a consti-
tutionaI automaton, rigid pat
template of the proprieties.
Such picture bears no more
resemblance to King George as /
have heard him described by those
who really know him than it
bears to Mr.. Roosevelt.
Let me recall the outward as
poets and incidents of his life.
Prince George was doubly for
tunate. Not only was he young
er son, and SO with comparative
liberty to follow his own tastes,
but his tastes led him to the most
wholesome and bracing vocation
that an English prince could pos

'tious men living.
There simply is not an ounce
of wickedness in him." remarked
to me enc who observed the new
sovereign at close range.
The king is thoroughly hui
man man, with pronounced traits
and plenty of opinions of his
own. King George has no more
hesitation than Mr.. Roosevelt in
saying out precisely what he
thiaks. He is straightforward,
downright style of man, rather
naiveS and immature, bluff and
voluble of speech, with an ele-
ment of emotionalism that, unlike
most Englishmen, he is at no
pains to conceal.
England does not know the
king. Does the king know Eng
sand? Has he that instinct for
the silent thoughts and
wishes of the nation that King
Edward showed to perfection?
Has he inherited his fathers royal
gift for doing the right thing at
the right moment in the right
way? / do not know; 1 doubt
whether anybody knows.
But, if he relies upon his own
sound instincts and goes straight
ahead, all will be we'll. He may
never BIO as popular as King Ed
ward, but he will be assured of
the respect, confidence and devo-
tion that are never likely to be
withheld by Englishmen from
king who means so thoroughly
we'll as this one does, whose sense
of responsibility is so static, and
who will gladly wear himself to
the bone in doing his duty.

HEbb PLANT
WON'T AFFECT
CITY DOCK

Messrs. Rodgers, Harmon, Day,
Love, Younglove and Grinnell of
the business mems committee call
ed on Mayor Fawcett and Commits
sioners Lawson and Woods this
morning to urge the municipal
dock proposition and to insist
that the Hebb power plant project
should not interfere. They were
shown that the power plant prof.
ect had no bearing on the case,
and it was agreed that telegram
should be sent to Thomas Cooper
at st. Paul urging speedy consid-
Grafton, as the city wants to get
busy on the dock yet this summer,
to have 1t operating by next year
at least.
The committee was afraid If
the city sold bonds for the power
plant that there would not be
enough to get the docks without
Exceeding the bond limit. 1t was
pointed out by Commissioners
Woods and Lawson that the Hebb
power plant proposition will not
affect the bonded debt of the
city. If this is gone into 1t will
be simply like private corpora
ton would do it. The city will
own the plant, but all the money
lput in will be simply on bonds on
the plant itself, and the plant will
have TO take care of it's own cost.
Not dollar is. to be paid out of
the city taxes on the project.
The city is simply going to play
the game of modern finance and
have the bondholders build it a
plant which will pay for itself and
then be the property of the city
without costing the people any
thing.
This will leave all the taxing
power available to build munich
pal docks and care for the other
cit yexpenses.

.CR|PPEN SAFE.
IN A TINY
REPUBLIC
,(By United Press Leased Wire.


LONDON, July 22.-Dr. Haw-
ley H. Crippen, the American
dentist whom the police charge
with having murdered his wife at
their Islington home, is today hid
ing in the Andorra republic, in the
Pyrennes, according to disptach
received here.
IL these reports are true, the
police say, their chances for ar
resting Crippen are greatly re-
duced. The Andorra republic OBJ
serves practically no rules of ex-
tradition, and criminals who have
fled to its Businesses seldom have
been captured, so long as they
remained within the confines of
the republic.
The whole republic covers an
area of only It's miles, but prac-
tically every foot of the territory
is suited for hiding. The repub-
lie has been Independent since the
regime of Charlemagne. Commu-
nication with the outside world
has been limited, and the inhabi-
tants always have shown an un-
willingness to surrender foreign
criminals.

King Edward was a believer in
the virtues of cockpit education"
He was determined, If his sons
showed any liking for the sea, to
place them on board the Britain
mia. The two princes Joined her
at the same moment. No indul-
gences were allowed them except
separate cabins. Prince George
took to the life readily and easily
The two years he spent on board
ship confirmed his liking for q
sailors life.
A catalogue of journeys and
places is hardly sketch of a
mans personality. Still 1t is
worth noting that before he was
twenty years old Prince George
had seen more of the outside
world than most men see in life
time.
After making due allowances
for the note of exaggeration that
Englishmen rarely escape In talk
ing of princes, there remains a
consensus of opinion that this
particular prince was not only a
Woodworking. willing, and really
capable sailor, but kindly, un-
affected, good-hearted gentle
man.
A constant, at times perhaps,
almost morbid, sense of duty is
one of the qualities King George
owes to, or that was at any rate
confirmed by, his naval training.
He is one of the most conscien-
