\ HUMANE ACT

The Salem Humane Society owes
Frank Ford a debt of thanks for his
kindness in looking after a starving
horse that was reported to the socie-
ty from North Salem The animal
was turned out by some one. without
the fear of punishment due to those
who neglect or abuse mans best
friend The animal during the hot
spell of last week was left without
food or water-especially water, and
tried the gates of many places in
hunting for a drink, only to be
driven away. When Frank heard of
II he ordered the men to hitch the
animal behind one of his teams and
take it. TO the farm, where there is
plenty of feed and running water
The old horse drank nearly barrel
OF water, and had to be choked of
to keep him from injuring himself
by drinking too much. He is comfort
able now an dwil be kept there until
some one calls for him. In the mean
time the Humane Society has war
rant out for the man who turned the
animal out without care to die.

There is a musical act uncommon
ly good at the Bligh-Bingham and

remarkably skillful, playing on cor
nets, trombOnes, cello, mandolins.
etc The playing of two cornets, two
different parts, simultaneously by
Bingham is pronounced hit, while
the duet by the man and woman is
delightful. All lovers of instrument
tai music will be pleased with this
act
Dave Gardner, in song, is direct

JOY good singing will prove trefJ.

FADDISTS
DESIRE TO
MAKE MORE
IT is HIGH TIME TO DRAW THE
LINE ON EDUCATION AND GO,
TO TEACHING "READIN', WRIT
IN AND SPELLIN'."

Realizing that the success Of their
work in the various state depart
ments is dependent to a great ex-
tent upon familiarizing students Of
the schools in the state with the
principles carried out in the depart
ments, one state official after the
other is appealing to State Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction Alder
man to put course of study relat-
ing to the departments in the couse
of study for the state schools.
Yesterday Deputy Dairy and Food
Inspector Judd held conference
with the state superintendent rela-
tive to the advisability of putting in
a course of study dealing with the
care of milk after It reaches the con-
sumer. He is of the opinion that as
many diseases can be traced to the
use of milk. which has been contain
mated by being placed in an unsan-
itary place by the consumer as to
that produced under favorable con-
ditions The dairy department is
working hard to compel the dairies
to maintain a sanitary condition, but
finds his work hampered because the
consumer fails to observe sanitary
rules in caring for the milk, and it
is believed that this can be corrected
by inserting a course of study in the
state schools.
Others Also Want Space.
The insurance and forestry depart
ment and many other departments
are clamoring for space in the book
The first wants a short course of
study on the prevention of fires in
serted, and the latter course of
study on forestry in general, and es-
pecially with relation to forest fires.
While the state superintendent be-
lleyes that much good can be accom-
plished by the insertion in the book
Of courses Of study OF that kind, he
is confronted with the proposition of
keeping the book down to a size
smaller than an encyclopedia and
also in avoiding burdening the teach
ers with so much work that they will
be unable to handle 1T all in an in
telligent and efficient manner.
He is considering all the requests
made upon him for space, and many
Of them will no doubt be granted
and the subjects be dealt with in a
concise and brief manner

LEGISLATORS
BRIBED, DID
LORIMER DO IT?
UNITED PRESS LEASED wIEE.I


Washington, July 27-Testifying
before the senate Lorimer inyesti-
eating committee here today, II. d.
HOltslaw, son OF State Senator d. w.
Holtslaw, OF Illinois, who confessed
TO having been bribed TO vote for
LOrimer, presented evidence that his
fathers confession was correct.
The younger Holtslaw, who is
cashier Of the State Bank at Iuka,
ILL.,, produced the original deposit
slip, dated June 10. 1909, showing
that his father on that date deposited
S250O I'm the State Bank at Chicago.
This was the date on which the eld-
or Holtslaw declared he received the
Ilorimer bribe.
BY the records OF the Iuka bank,
young Holtslaw showed that HIS faith
er had deposited the s25OO there to
his own credit on June 49, 1909,
and that II had been charged against
the State Bank at Chicago. &"
ID. W. HoltsIaw, the confessed re-
ceiver Of Lorimer cash, had been
summoned to appear before the COM
mlttee but he was unable to do so
on account Of Illness. Young Holt
sIaw declared. that he had discussed
the Lorimer affair with his father
several times after the latter con-
fessed and his father said he thought
II his duty 10 tell the truth.
Young Holtslaw said his father
was worth S25OOOO when he was
elected to the legislature and had
never before been accused Of wrong
doing. He denied positively that his
father ever said before his election
that he would vote for Lorimer.
