letter of the secretary follows:
TEMPLE, Texas, Feb. q. ,9ll.
Mrs. F. F. Everett, Columbia, Tenn.
Dear Madam: Answering Jour
inquiry concerning the operation OF
the Kings Daughters Hospital at this
place, will say: list, our people con
slider the institution as absolutely IN
dispensible. There is no limit to the
good it works for the poor and those
of moderate means While we nave
two other moderate sanitariums II
this city, they do not attempt to Ill
the mission of the Kings Daughters.
Along with the charity features OF this
hospital it is equipped for the care o.
those who are able to pay well for &C
commodations. All physicians o. th'
city are privileged to practice IN the
institution, who send their remunera
tive AS well as their charity cases
there to be taken care OF.
In the second place, the institu
ton is a systematic as well as econom
zeal manner in which the affiicte'
poor are properly provided for, max
ing it unnecessary for waste 0
charity.
"A pity it is that all cities and Town
do not have such like institutions, an
when they are properly understood
the charitably inclined and patfioti
people unhesitatingly contribute
them.
The Association has a property
which ] Judge would represent some
thing in the neighborhood OF s5o,oo'
which is equipped with all mocer
appliances incident to first-class no.
pital Yours very truly,

Do not forget the corn contest.
hope that some farmers and as many
boys as possible in each precinct will
begin to prepare, or have already pre-
pared an acre of ground. The prize

yield of corn on one acre of ground,
grown by any farmer, using his own
selection of seed. And prize of One
Hundred ($1OO.OO) Dollars for the

amount and kind of fertilizer used,
and the mode of application, also a
record of the cultivation in perfect de-

measure establish some record as to
what can be produced on an acre with
intelligent preparation and cultivation.
And in an humble way do something as
a betterment for our great country.
Yours respectfully.

The MlscoNcEPTIoN or MEN

Mr.. Macaulay tells US how bitterly
our English ancestors fought the fly
ing diligencies" fast stage coach
lines) for fear that they would destroy
the inns, then so popular in England,
and put them out of commission.
Those inns were patronized chiefly by
horseback travellers, and occasionally
by few in private carriages.
So later on the same bitter fight was
made against the introduction of la
bor-saving devices in manufacturing
establishments. 1t was feared that it
would throw most of the workingmen
and workingwomen out of employ
ment. Great riots were precipitated
and very frequently the government
had to put in an interference. When
the London Times first installed the
first steam cylinder press, it had to do
so behind closed doors, and the under
taking was kept a profound secret for
fear that the office would be mobbed.
The same thing was repeated in this
country.
When the sewing machine was in
vented cry went up that all the poor
needle-women would be thrown out of
employment, and be thrown upon the
cold charity of the world.
So, again, when the Mergenthaler
linotype was patented and was begin
ming to be installed in the printing Of
fees the printers babe farewell to
their occupations, but how obscured-
were their visions and short their cal
culations.
The flying diligencies," and their
successor, the railway train, made
the modern hotel; the application of
steam to our manufacturing plants
gave employment to tens of thousands
more workmen; the sewing machine
came as blessing to the needle-wo-
men, and printers find more employ
ment now than ever before; indeed, it
is almost impossible to supply the de-
mand.
So, when the automobile was invent
ed, no less a person than Mr.. Edison
babe farewell to the horse. 1t is true
that the trolley car, the automobile
and the auto truck have driven tens of
thousands of horses out of employ
ment in the last few years yet what
do we see? The fact must be appar-
ent to all that the horse is in greater
demand than ever before in his his
tory In January of this year lila
more horses were sold in the east ST.
Louis market than in January, 1910.
We know how it has been in Ocala
There have been more horses and
mules sold here than the most san
guine dealers could have hoped for.
1t has been a record-breaking year.
And so current statistics show that
throughout the United States there
are twice as many horses and mules
sold today for pleasure and profit than
there were ten years ago. The value,
too, has increased enormously-as
much as three hundred per cent.
So we never know.
When the primary was introduced
it was done primarily to give the
poor man chance" but instead its
tremendous cost has eliminated him
from politics. except to do the voting
and the shouting.

the distinctions between the north
and the south:

the distinctions between the north
and the south:
"The one nature magnified labor,
the other nature deprecated and de-
spised it. The one honored the labor
er, the other scorned him. The one
was simple and direct, the other COM
! pick, full of sophistries and self-ex-
cuses. The one was free TO look all
that claimed to be truth in the face,
the other did not dare to investigate.
The one was ready to state broad prin-
ciples of the brotherhood of man, the
universal fatherhood and justice of
God: the other denied even the prin-
ciples, and so dug deep and laid below
its special sins the broad foundation
lof a consistent, acknowledged sinful
mess. The same spirit which
was blind to breaking sacred ties, of
separating man and wife, of beating
women until they dropped down dead,
of organizing RIGHTEOUSNESS and sin
into commercial systems,
1t has hewed and burned the bodies
of the dead. 1t has starved and mutt
lated its helpless prisoners. 1t has
dealt by truth, not as men will in d
| time of excitement, lightly and with
| frequent violations, but with a cool
and deliberate and systematic con-
tempt. 1t has sent its agents into
northern towns to fire peaceful hotels
where hundreds of peaceful men ana
women slept. 1t has undermined the
lprisons where its victims starved, and
made all ready to blow with one blast
their wretched life away 1t has de-
lighted in the lowest and basest sour
rility, even on the highest and most
honorable lips. 1t has corrupted the
graciousness of women and killed out
the truth of men"
