The Farmers Union of North Caro-
lima has decided to take a hand in the
American Tobacco Company's propos-
ed plan of disintegration under the de-
cree of the United States Supreme
court. The Union has employed for
mer Speaker E. ]. Justice, of Green's
boro, and Ex-Congressman F. A.
Woodward, of Wilson, to represent its
members at the hearing in New York
which was begun on Monday. The
farmers of tobacco growing counties
have put themselves on record as OPP
posed to the reorganization plan pro-
posed by the trust and will fight it to
the finish. Alley are in hearty &C
cord with the position taken by the
Attorney General of North Carolina,
South Carolina and Virginia in the mat
ter. So the fight is on in earnest.

among other things Mr.. Little stated
that "he was firmly convinced that

a rare battle was in prospect in that
state. He added that Illinois was de-
termined to have a house-cleaning

be relegated to the real for once and
all time.
No doubt Mr.. Little is right in all
his conclusions, though as to North
Carolina Republicanism delivering
any divided vote in the National con
venticn we fear that will never be
carried to a conclusion. The deliv-
cry to Mr.. Taft will be made just like

ahce. There are the pale complexion.
the dark hair, the small dark eyes,
twinkling with fun. Small in stature,
but alert and active In body and mind.
DR.. Kin wisely retains her Chinese
dress.
1t is more than twenty years since
DR.. Yamei Kin took her degree at the
Women's Medical college. New York,
now merged into Cornell university.
The years spent in the west have
taught her much besides a wonderful
command Of the English language and
a knowledge of medicine and surgery.
She does not approve Of all she has
heard and seen, but she recognizes
that modern science is the greatest
gift of the west to the east today. In
method there must be adaptation rather
than adoption.
She is now intrusted by the Chinese
government with the organization of
a medical department for women in
northern China. a huge task which
calls forth her splendid abilities. A
start has been made at Tientsin. A
hospital. d~ispensary ana medical school
are in existence. How they came in
to being is Enthusiastically Chinese.
Land, on which were some very an
Gent buildings, was allotted TO DR..
Kin for her new organization, with ap
assured revenue. That was the gov.
ernment's part: she was to do all the
rest. you must make your own
plans and carry your scheme to sue
cess"
This meant that she had to be her
own architect and engineer and carry
out the work with the aid Of a-few
ordinary workmen. There were the
water supply tt be planned and sani-
tary- work to be done. as well as de
molishing. some of the old buildings,
replacing them with new ones and
adapting others to her purpose.
The Transformation was worked.
The architect and engineer are now
sunk in the doctor and director. DR..
Kin's aim is TO make sure progress and
lift the people step by step to better
sanitation and hygiene. In her estab.
lishment. she maintains Chinese Gus
toms so far as possible and introduces
only such western methods OF santa
ton as are indispensable. Her stu
dents enter for a two or three years
course; their method of life is Chinese
also their food, which DR.. Kin shares
with them in order that she may be
the first to complain If anything should
be wrong.
