PRESIDENT FAv0RS
 PURE FOOD WILEY
Turns Down Recommendation of Department of Agricul-
 ture and Atty. General
SHAKEUP IS INDICATED SOON
President Believes pr. Wiley Acted for Best Interests of People
 and Sustains Him.

Beverly. Mass. - President Taft made public his decision not to ask for the resignation of Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, chief of the bureau of chem istry Of tine department of agrieul- ture.
 The president now stands by pr. Wiley, despite recommendation by the personnel board of the department of agriculture that his resignation be re- quested The recommendation was endorsed by Attorney General Wick ersham, whose findings Mr. Taft re- verses. Further, the president utters many words Of praise of the bureau chief, instead of blame or criticism.
 There is no indication in Presi- dent Taft's announcement, however, that he feels that he has turned down Mr Wickersham by not accept ing his recommendation. He explains that the attorney generals findings in the case were made with less con- plete data than was before himself when he took it up.
 In the announcement the president admits what has been well known to many persons close 10 the admins tration. that there is trouble in the department Of agriculture.
 That this indicates q serious shake. up in the department next winter was freely predicted here There have never been any intimations that Sec retary Wilson was disposed to retire, and 1t is not believed the president would request him to do so. gen. eral cleanup of the affairs of the de partment, however, could easily be re- quired by the president and carried through when he returns to Washing ton in November
 The Wiley case" arose over the employment by the bureau of chem istry of Dr. H. H. Rushy Of New York, pharmaesnosist of the bureau. In effect, Br. Wiley. Dr L. Y. Kobler, chief of the drug laboratory, and Dr. W. D. Bigelow, assistant ca;ef of the bureau Were charged with having eonsplred to pay Dr. Rasby a salary of $1 ,669 a year. with the tacit under standing that he was to do only i enough work to obtain this amount at the rate of so day. This was held to violate the act of congress of March i, 1907, which declared that no classified scientific investigator should receive more than $9 day.

HCLY ROLLERS WHIPPED.
Citizens of Judsonia Aroused Over
 Death of Woman Member.


 Death of Woman Member.
 uas0nia,-Following the circulation of report that a woman member of the Holy Roller" sect had died with out medical attention, and that several other members of the same family were seriously ill, band of about 20 men entered the hall where the meetings are being conducted. seized the two men who were leading the services and horsewhippcd them. This was followed by a warning that they leave the county immediately.
 It is stated that a woman member of the religious order died at her home, two miles west of Judsonia. without having had medical attention. An investigation disclosed the fact that several children of the family also We're seriously ill The feeling against the Holy Rollers" was further augmented by the circulation Of an unconfirmed rumor that another mem- Der of the family had died. The hqs- band Of the dead woman was arrested
 When the attack was made on the Clttler hall, where the meeting was in progress, tie TWO women who were aiding the leaders of the service were not moslested. but the men. despite their pleadings and threats of the in. vocation of divine aid, were carried from the room and soundly whipped. Members of the audience fled the hall panic stricken. and the greatest ex. citement prevails in the ranks Of tho Rollers"
 The meetings began in Judsonia about two weeks ago. and at first We're held at-the homes of the mcm. bers Of the strange religious sect. Later the hall Was secured, and large crowds were attracted to the meeting mainly out Of curiosity to watch the strange antics of the believers in their religious dalirium.
 The man who was arrested here is being closely guarded in the fatl. as threats of violence have been nu. merous' It is alleged that his reljg. ious fanadcism is responsible for his not summoning a physician to care for his wife and children.

keep Volumes have been written regarding the remarkable intelligence and judgment displayed by the shepherd dogs of this and other countries in minding focks of sheep and thousands of dogs are today doing mens work in this field Similar ly efficient service is performed very frequently by dogs in assisting to drive cattle to market or to the railroad yards and in the deli cate work of rounding up poultry. Finally there are hundred minor services as. for example, that performed by the numerous farm dogs that have been taught by their masters to meet the rural free delivery carrier each day and to bring to the farm house the mail and the daily paper. This is big ume.saver for the farmer when as Is so often the case, the k F. n. box Is located con siderable distance from the dwelling
 Some persons have even predicted that the time will come in America when some of our farmers will employ degs as they do in Holland and other foreign countries to draw the carts of milk 10 the creameries and do other work that W e now entrust to horses but this prediction Is not generally accepted because of the great distances involved in this country. However, there Is no reason why the usefulness Of intelligent canines should not be still further developed and certain ly as the "automobe habit" spreads in the rural communities the farmers are going to find dogs in dlspensable in one more irecton. for it has been proven that there Is no deterrent like dog that looks as though he meant business for warning off the joy riders who are won't to appropriate auto mobiles that they find standing uEguarded in the treets or in a market space at a picnic
 
 value as helpers the farm, but this by no means eXhausts the possibilities of the subject On an increasing number of farms il has been found that degs can be made source of actual revenue This is accomplished by breeding blooded dogs for the market. It is of necessity a side line to be sure. but il can he made most profitable one, for fine dogs bring big prices and the farmer has the facilities for breeding dogs under the best conditions without fraction Of the investment that would ee required ot man who established kennel on a tract of land used for no other pur- pose Moreover the farmers wife and children can co most of the work Of caring for the dogs. just as they dc in so many instances in the case qf the poultry. There Is not much danger that 1t Will prove rksome either. for there is nothing more amusing than the average puppy, and he dces not as rule require that extreme solictous care that must be bestowed upon some other classes of ret stock
 The species of dogs which may most advau- tageously be selected as farm helpers is. Of course matter of individual opinion and there are al. most as many different opinions on the subject as with the regard to the age at which people should marry, Naturally, personal preferences on the part Of the farmer end the members Of his family oftttfres have much to do with a choice and then again the sort os assistance that is desired from

Ministers to Interview President

Ottawa, kan.-Nhen President Taft visits this city several pastors of Ot- tawa churches will make a personal appeal to him regarding the positions or Secretary of Agriculture Wilson and Secretary of State Knox on the international brewers congress, to be held in Chicago next month. The pastors charge that he had allowed Secretary Wilson to become honorary president of the brewers congress and had allowed Secretary Knox to write letters to foreign countries giE- ing official endorsement to the con gress.

Fleet Will Not Sail

Nasaington,-After having declined 10 postpone the cruise of the Pacific Fleet to the Hawaiian islands on the ground that it would interfere with efficiency, the navy department as samed an about face" and ordered tt.e vessels detained until after Presi- dent Taft's visit to San Francisco, October l4. to attend the ground breaking ceremonies for the Panama. Pacific international exposition This action, il is understood, was taken on instructions from the president he fleet was scheduled to sail for Honolulu October 1.
