A PRACTICAL
ORGANIZATION
The International Typographical I'm.
ion Has Thousands of Students
in Its Printing Course.

Schemes and theories concerning
trade education appear with great
regularity in magazines and daily
papers. A booklet issued by the edu-
cational commission of the Interna-
tlonal Typographical Union proves
that that organization Is doing prac-
tial work. The publication contains
proof In the way of specimens of
work done by students before and
after taking the Unions course in
instruction In printing and grateful
expressions of others who tell what
this couse has done for them. One
apprentice says his wages have al
most doubled, while a journeyman
declares the lessons teach the prin-
ter how to think and create. There
is a handsome frontispiece, which
demonstrates that the creative fac
ulty Is being developed among COM
positors.
These lessons are given by the cor
respondence method, and in three
years more than twenty-three hun
dred students have been enrolled
1t has won worldwide fame, as the
government of New South Wales has
asked permission to adopt a por-
tlon Of these lessons in a printing
course provided by that State. The
American lessons are also being talk
en- by some of the teachers Of typo
graphy in France and other coun-
tries.
The l. T. U. course, as these les
sons are popularity known among
printers, is sold for less than actual
cost This is possible because the
International Typographical Union
defrays all promotional expenses
and returns twenty-five per cent of
the fee to each student who finishes
the lessons with ordinary inteli-
gence. The unions purpose is to
improve the efficiency of the craft,
for in the skill of its members II
finds its greatest weapon OF offense
and defense.

TO SELECT
PRODUCTS
FOR SHOW
GREAT NORTHERN WILL SEND
MAN TO STATE FAIR TO SELECT
PRODUCTS FOR EXHIBIT IN
THE EASTERN STATES.

L. w. Hill, president of the Great
Northern Railway company has ad-
vised Frank Meredith, secretary OF
the Salem State fair that he has as
signed Fred w. Graham, industrial
agent of the Great Northern Railway
company, to visit the Oregon State
fair on or before the opening day,
September II, and stay until the close
to make selections of produce to be
exhibited in the display cars of the
transportation company to be sent
this winter.
Mr. Graham is to take the pick of
what he needs 10 exploit Oregon, and
those who exhibit at the Oregon State
fair from September II to 16 will
receive a visit from the industrial
agent. Then, without expense to any
of the counties the selected articles
will be sent to the various exhibit
cars and toured through the eastern
shtes to aid in inducing people to
settle in Oregon.
William McMurray of the Hartman
lines has also planned to send a rep
resentative to the fair to make selec-
tions Of the things exhibited for use
in the display cars of the Hartman
lines which are also to be sent east
Between the two of these transporta-
tion companies 1t is expected that
everything of value will be taken from
Salem to begin a trans-continental
tour never to return but to spread the
fame of Oregon's wonderful soil and
the opportunities here for raising
good crops at a profit in a climate
that is without equal.

The government weather factory at Washington prom
ises decided change in weather conditions
1t has been long, dry ideal in Western Oregon
and there is change overdue in way.
Now there danger forest res and there great need
of week of rain before hop picking
The picking could wait little and the rest of this week be
given over to a good general soaking up
1t would be pleasaner camping and peasanter working in
the hop yards and the orchards for the and children
1t is simply impossible stop forest fires everything being
dry as tinder in the mountains
On pinch The Capital Journal might help the government

DINNER.

Last evening Mr.. and Mrs. H. H.
Reeves gave a birthday, football, G.
o'clock dinner surprise for their son,
Ed. The members of the high school
football team and the manager and
coach succeeded in getting within the
Reeves house without making any
noise (Which was probably the big
surprise of the evening", and sur
prised young Reeves completely when
he came down stairs to answer a sup
posed telephone call. Each member of
the team administered the rite of lay
ing on of hands in a plentiful degree.
The dinner which followed and the
way the boys partook, We're eloquent
testimony of Mrs. Reeves ability as a
preparer of good things to eat. Per
course, which consisted of ice cream
footballs, came from the workshop of
the Dragon.
At the close of dinner, John New
conner, catpain-elect of the team, arose
and on behalf of the boys presented
Captain Reeves with a handsome gold
ring, engraved with his initials and
the appreciation of the team.
Ed Reeves was easily the all-inter-
scholastic quarter this year, and his
absence will be a big loss to next
years team.

ton.
The Dillon civil service law, passed
by the last session of 1909, has come
in for considerable discussion. 1t
provided that there should be ten
elective offices for each of the houses
and that all other clerks should be
expert s~tenographers, and be appoint
ed by the presiding officers of both
houses after a civil service examina-
ton. The position of assistant SER
geant-at-arms was not provided for in
the statute and the house violated the
law by electing one. After discussion
the senate decided that a law-mak-
ing body should be the last to violate
it's own laws and refused to elect any
officers not provided for in the stat
ute.
A constitutional amendment has
been introduced by Senator Wright of

amendment (income tax of the Unit

duced in the senate for the ratification
of the South Dakota legislature. Last
May about fifteen state legislatures
had given their assent TO the amend
ment.
The only real excitement of the
week has come over the contest be-
tween Wagner, Democrat, and the
present incumbent, and Wakes, Re
publican, for a seal in the house from
Bon Homme. The matter vent before
committee, where the interests of the
two contestants We're looked after by
Judge Dillon of Yankton, and Judge
F. II. Wicks of Scotland. The COM
mittee reported to the house four to
three in favor of the Republican. The
attorneys were permitted to argue
their cases before the house Saturday
and final settlement of the contest de-
ferred till next week. Sentiment of
those acquainted with the facts seems
to be in favor of the democrat with a
belief that the legal right to the seat
belongs to the Republican.
Representative Kerr of Brookings,
has introduced a bill providing a
standard for pure seeds, and inspec-
tion of seed. Senator Cone of Mime
haha, has a proposition to permit
school boards to convert sinking funds
into warrants on the general fund.
Senator Perley OF Moody, has a plan
to conserve the state land by pro-
hibiting the planting of flax on leased
land. He will also introduce a meas
ure to limit the fishing to the summer
months. Representative Millet of
Stanley wants the absolute protection
of deer, antelope and elk. The latter
will introduce a bill to legalize the
creation of irrigation districts.
All in all the first week has been
a good beginning for more strenuous
ones to come. The organization of
both houses has been completed, a
few bills have been introduced, har-
mOny has prevailed in all quarters,
and everything points to a session to
be remembered for it's good works.

During the year just closed Clerk of
Courts Hanson has issued 1876 mar
riage licenses. Last yea l24 were is
sued and for several years the number
has been between 1870 and 1870. Octo-
Der was the banner month with 10,
June second with II and November
third with l6. June is usually the big
month for the marriage bureau, with
November secord, but last year an
unusually large number of Brookings
county young people selected the
month of October. The fewest num-

During 1910 the population of the
county was increased 346 by births.
This is about the same number as the
previous year. June was the big
month for new arrivals with A, with
January second with 40, and December
third with 3S. May was the lowest

July was the banner month by a large
majority, there not being a single

This is a remarkable occurrence and is
the first time it has happened since
a record of the deaths has been kept.

FATAL ACCIDENT AT AURORA.

NJ. E. Johnson, a pioneer resident
of Trenton township, but who had
been living at Aurora for some years,
was kicked by a horse and fatally in
jured last week. The Aurora Times
says OF the accident:
This community was greatly
shocked Sunday by the sudden and
unexpected death of Morris E. John
son, which occurred sometime be-
tween II and u New Years morn
ing.
"Mr. Johnson had gone out to the
barn to water and feed the horses,
using a wheel-barrel to convey the
water into the barn. Thinking that
he was gone longer than necessary,
his wife went out shortly afterward,
and was terrified at finding her hus-
band lying dead at the feet Of a
span of colts at the entrance of the
barn. Her screams for help quickly
brought some of the neishbors and
DR.. Rhodes was at once summoned,
but he was beyond medical assistance.
ut looked as though he had started
70 take a pail of water to the colts
when one of them kicked, striking him
senseless and probably causing in
slant death, though he was badly
bruised about the face and body when
found"
