BEST OF THE THREE.
The Illinois was promoted at a time
when Rock Island was experiencing
a dearth OF first-class attractions. Har-
per's theatre. once among the leading
playhouses of the middle west, had
fallen in the 10, 20 and 30 ranks, and
the patrons of the better grade of
amusements refused to patronize it.
The Illinois was built by the people in
the full assurance that it would be
the permanent home of the standard
theatrical entertainment. Following
the opening of the Illinois the best at
fractions on tour were booked here,
and they failed only in rare instances
to draw capacity audiences, Rock Is
land, coming back as it were. and
again demonstrating that it is the best
theatrical city of the three.
Since the adoption of the open
door" policy by the owners of western
theatres, which include the Chamber
lin. Kindt & Co, circuit, of course the
Illinois has suffered in the matter of
bookings, those controlled by KIaw

LaFolIette Talks Too Much.

In his effort to talk against time
in opposing the reciprocity measure
Sen. LaFollette of Wisconsin has in
iured himself with all thoughtful
people and some strong arguments
against reciprocity itself have been
weakened by their unfortunate asso-
citation with talk of such radical
nature. Of course Senator LaFollette
knew that his argument was useless
as repeated votes had shown that
the senate would not allow amend
ments to the bill, but that was no
excuse for such bitter TRADE as the
senator made.
He was not content with criticism
of the presidents reciprocity policy
but charged the president with dis
LOYALTY to the Roosevelt policies,
to the tariff policy of the people who
elected him and to the protection OF
the public against ''the interests" He
said
''In all the records of this admin
istration no more glaring example
is presented of the complete sur
render 10 special interests and the
complete reversal of Roosevelt's pro-
gressive policies than that shown In
dealing with the amendments of the
interstate commerce act. 1t would
have been difficult to have framed a
piece of legislation affecting inter
state commerce more harmfully or
the public interests than the bill
drafted by the Encouragement and
recommended to Congress by Presi-
dent Taft"
No one acquainted with the Pres
ident's course can honestly make
such charges against him. More vio-
lators of the Sherman antitrust law
\ have been brought to justice during
the Taft administration than ever be-
fore. Not only have the cases COM
menced before he assumed office been
pushed to a final settlement but new
cases have been started, against the
alleged lumber combines for example
In no case has it been charged that
the president has attempted to evade
his duty. The talk of LaFollette has
not shown any vicious purpose on the
part of Pres. Taft but has shown
what an unfair and unreasonable
man he himself is.

insane it is manifestly unfair, if not
inhumane, to subject him or her to a
trial for life. If it is determined that
insanity does not exist that question
should be eliminated from the trial,
thus insuring justice as well as saw
ing the state thousands of dollars for
a long trial and the enormous fees
of insanity experts who testify for
and against prisoner. Under the
present conditions a shrewd lawyer
is usually able to instill enough doubt
into the minds of a jury through
expert" evidence to at least save
his client from the full penalty of his
crime. no matter how conclusive the
other evidence. 1t may be of advant-
age to the practice of the criminal
lawyer to retain the present form of
procedure, but in every other way
it is detriment to society and to the
state.-E Mortified News.

Farmers Who Advertise.

The value of intelligent advertis-
ing has come to be so generally recQg-
nized that the progressive farmers
are making use of it to help them
in their business. The Wicomico
News, published at Salisbury, Md,
tells of farmer who speaks of the
value he has found in the advertising
columns of that paper. He wanted
to sell some horses, and an adver-
tisement of the fact which cost him
ST led to the sale of $3.50 worth of
his stock, with prospect for further
sales. To have personally hunted
up customers would have cost him a
great deal of time and money, and
then perhaps have left him with
some of it unsold. Another of it's
farmer friends told the News that
whenever he wished to either buy
or sell stock he advertised, and then
he had those with stock to sell or
those who wished to buy come to
him, either personally or by letter,
saving great expense in time ano
money. Still another instance is CIV
en- of man who advertised fresh
eggs and shortly had a line OF Gus
toners who took all his eggs at a
price slightly in advance of the mar
ket. because of the absolute assur-
ance that they were fresh.
Some time ago the newspapers
throughout the country had the story
of young woman of the northwest
ern apple country who advertised
apples of particularly fine size and
variety to be sent out by mail, in
dividually wrapped. Soon she had
more business than she could attend
to.
The fact is that advertising is the
medium through which the business
of the world is coming more and
more to be done-the clearing house
of knowledge and ideas in traffic of
all kinds, and the man who gets the
largest profits from it is the man
who takes the earliest and most in
| telligent advantage of it. In no other
way can the knowledge of one mans
desire to sell or willingness to buy
be SO economically and effectively
conveyed to another man who wants
what the advertiser has or has what
the advertiser wants. Publisher

Despite the fact that it pays other
farmers to advertise Caledonia coun-
| ty farmers do not take advantag e of
the low rates offered in our Farm
ers' Exchange. Fifty cents spent
there will bring customer for a
horse or COW that would consume SIS
worth of feed while waiting for some
one to find out that you wanted to
sell. Venture a little and see how
much more business you can do.

The value of a forestry service il

The value of forestry service in
Vermont was forcib1y demonstrated
in the subduing of several dangerous
forest fires during the past week.
Raging under the most dangerous
conditions, with one exception, they
were extinguished before they had
devastated much territory. With
out the present organization it would
have been impossible to have rallied
enough men from the hay fields to
subdue such large fires but they have
saved property of much more value
than their compensation for the work
will amount to.

A Mountain Trail.

DO recent undertaking in Vermont
has attracted more attention or more
favorable comment than the plan
of The Green Mountain Club to con-
struct a trail from one end of the
state of Vermont to the other along
the prominent mountain peaks.
Massachusetts and New Hampshire
papers take notice of the plan and
cite the effective work of The APP
palachian Club of Boston in marking
trails in the White Mountains and
elsewhere. Incidentally they men
ton the scenery that the mountains
and lakes of Vermont afford. New
York papers also comment favorably
on the scheme. So the plan has al
ready advertised the state attrac-
tions.
The plan is to construct trail
about 15S miles in length that will
cost about five dollars per mile and
the club expects to have about
thirty miles of 1t completed this sea-
son. The value of such trail is
that it will lead to the most beau
tiful and grand scenes of Vermont
that can be reached only by trail
The trail for the most part will lead
through the woods where the cool
ness and freshness of the forest viii
ever lure the pedestrian. 1t win give
seclusion and at the same time. g
definite aim for those who seek the
seclusion. The most important in
fiuence with the exception of the
scenery will be its challenge to the
love of difficulty that will tempt
thousands to the healthful and ex.
nilarating exercise of following il
the whole winding course. Stronger
men and women. freedom from the
rush and dust OF train and automo-
bile, a better understanding and
keener appreciation of the attractions
of Vermont viii be sure to follow the
completion of the Green Mountain
Trail.

Congress Has Adopted Program.

The most definite news about Con-
gress was given out late last week
when an agreement was reached in
the Senate to vote on the Canadian
reciprocity bill on Saturday, July %,
to vote on revision of the wool tariff
July %, on the farmers free list
bill, August 1, the reapportio nment

but that will constitute all the work

Suicide and Murder.

The bodies of Mrs. Bert Kelsey
and her five year old daughter of
Glover were found floating in Crystal
Lake, Barton, on July IL. The fam
lily lived few miles from the lake on
the Davis farm. Mr.. Kelsey was at
Barton the day before and when he
returned home found his wife and
child missing. AS the two were seen
near the lake search was made
around it until late the next after
noon when the bodies were seen.
Mrs. Kelsey had had several attacks.
of insanity. This was the first
drowning in Crystal Lake for nearly
half century.
