drsn In Snohorish, Wash.
About a year ago Mrs. n. 8. Nc
Cready. president Of the Cosmopolitan
club Of Snohomish, Wash, appointed
Mrs. L. d. Stokes superintendent TO or
ganiZe the Junior Civic league In the
Emerson school. The pupils in the four
rooms In that building did some very
efficient work In destroying noxious
weeds. such as the Canadian thistle.
Mrs. X. \. Small, principal of the
Central school. was made superintend-
ent OF the league in her building. Talks
were made to the pupils on sanitation
and neatness. and they We're urged to
begin the good work in their own
homes. The pupils were required to
give written reports OF the work done.
Out of a number of 500 children in the
building 80 reported work done. This
work appealed 10 the city council, and
Mayor Wood set aside one week In
April as cleanup week The children
from both buildings were Of much help
during this week. Rubbish was put in
convenient shape TO be carted away at
the city's expense.
To Judge from the large number of
barrels. boxes and heaps Of useless
stuff in sight the first day of the haul
ing away. SnohOmish was much In
need of this cleanup.
No work was attempted during the
summer when school was not in SEES

McCready came in person and talked
TO all the children, and urged them t.
continue the good work. She gave eacl

Brief Suggestions.

Go over the orchard and see that all
the wounds are well painted.
The golden wax bean is a favorite
with many garden makers. 1t is
tender. of good quality and strlngless.
II small pig is chilled it can be re-
viSed by dipping it in water as hot as
you can bear your hand in, then wrap.
ping it in warm flannel.
Don't keep your horse in an over
heated stable and then stand him for
hours in n freezing atmosphere and
wonder how he became paralyzed.
The durability of the mule Is a
strong point In his favor. He lives and
works to a good old age. His sense
Of self protection is strong, and he
avoids many injuries.
Never get the idea in your head that
drugs and health are inseparable, for
in most cases 1t will be found that
what we keep out of the pigs stom
nch has more to do with its health
than what we put in.
BlacHberries are very prOliGc and
ripen at the time they can be econOm
ically gathered and marketed They
are seldom injured by late frosts and
for this reason are surer than som,
other berries that ripen earlier.
The wheel hoes are great lato
savers. A pillow attachment is yer.
convenient for opening burrows and t
cover the larger seeds, as peas, bean
and sweet corn. Some Of the con-
binatioD wheel tools with drills. cult
waiting tSeth, nlows and rakes are yer
satisfactory.

THE VALUABLE TURNIP.
Worth Growing IL Only For Its Effect
on Dairy Cows


on Dairy Cows
While the real food value OF turnIpS
is considered somewhat low. they are
wonderful appetizers. especially for
dairy cows. not only toning up their
systems, but increasing the flow Of
milk.
Then there are several tempting
dishes for the table that can be formed
from turnips. and by storing n goodly
supply of them for winter their use
will save considerable of the higher
priced products, both around the feed
stalls and table
TurnipS for winter storage should
not be sown till in July, from the 10th
to che 10th, or even n few days later
will not be TOO late. Where they are
sown earlier than this the hot weather
causes them to become strong and
pithy, but if sown as above stated
they mature when the weather is cool
er. which greatly enhances their flavor,
gives them n firm, solid flesh and adds
to their keeping qualities.

Mr.. Editor was talking with an
old public school teacher, a good
man, a few days ago about this text
book question, and he told me that
the personnel of the committee was
all wrong, that the most of them had
been educated too far from the free
school and knew nothing of the
practical workings of them. He said
some Of the books heretofore chosen
were good, as good as we'll could be,
but some of them We're about as bad
as it was possible for them to be. His
idea was that this committee to
choose the books should be comprised
of the State Superintendent and then
the best and most successful free
school teachers that could be found
men who had gotten their education,
or at least their primary education,
in the public schools and men ac-
quainted with the necessities of the
children and with the difficulties the
public school teachers have to over
come. | believe this to be a good
idea and when adopted will result in
much good to the schools.-Justice,

TEXTBOOK RCMBIISGs.

There has been much dissatisiac-
ton over the manner in which the
textbooks for the public schools OF
the State were selected as well as
over some Of the books selected. Not
withstanding the fact that the books
are for use only in the public schools
not a single public school teacher was
piaced on the committee that select
ed the books Many OF the BOOKS
were not selected by series but are
by different authors, which is obliged
to be harder for the children to learn
than IL the books ran by series. AS
one writer has said, the school books
should be selected by the Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction and COM
petent corps of public school teach
ers. There were members on the
Commission who never taught scnooi
and haven't been in public school
house in twenty years.

LIVERPOOL MOB RUNS REAL.
Three Thousand Of Toughest Class
Attack Prison Vans and Hussars
Are Forced to Fire and Charge
With Drawn Sabers.

Liverpool, Aug. ia reign OF
terror exists here tonight and troops
are pouring into the city to put down
disorder. A special guard has been
detailed to protect the landing stage
of the transatlantic steamers, which
il is asserted the rioters have plan
ned to destroy by fire.
Five prison vans, escorted by fifty
Hussars, which were carrying riot
prisoners from the police court TO
Waltham jail, were attacked tonight
by 5000 members of the toughest
class in Vaulx Hall Street, in an at
tempt to rescue the prisoners. The
mob attacked the soldiers with mis-
siles of every description, and in de-
Tending themselves, the Hussars
fired.
In this ARRAY one man was killed
and many persons were severely hurt.
The troops then charged the mob
with drawn sabres and cleared the
streets. So daring were the rioters
that one of them tried to unhorse an
officer, who was obliged to use his re-
volver, killing the man.

SHOULD READ UP on TARIFF
QUESTION.

A correspondent of the Charlotte
News thinks the papers or the couh-
try should give their readers more
information on the tariff question.
After reading that gentleman's aru-
Gle on free trade, we are convinced
that he especially needs to be inform
ed on the tariff. The man who ar
CUES for free ttade also argues 1or
manner labor, soup houses and star
walton prices to the farmer for MS
products. Free trade can only bene-
fit the man with money to lend and
give more work to the pauper labor
or in foreign countries that manu-
features the goods to be sold on our
markets. Aside from the great bene-
fits our industries laborers and farm
ers receive from a protective tariff,
how does the free trader propose to
raise the revenue with which to run
this great government?
We agree that many people should
become better informed on the tariff
question. We do not know all that
is to be known about the tariff, but
we do know that the country is more
prosperous under a protective tariff
than under free trade. That is argu-
ment sufficient to a man who wishes
to see his country prosper.

MIR. GLIDEWELL REPLIES.

In this issue we are publishing Mr..
P. W. Glidewell's reply to ex-Judge
Manning's article on Governor Kitch-
ms record on antitrust legislation
in North Carolina.
Mr. Glidewell reiterates his former
statements He declares that Cover
nor Kitchin was not in favor of a
stringent antitrust law, but on the
other hand, endorsed the Blow-Basset
subterfuge, which has never interfer-
red with the operation of a single
trust in North Carolina, and appar-
emily was not framed for that pur-
pose. Evidently Mr.. Giidewell read
The Caucasian during the last cam
paign and has at last become con-
vinced that the charges then made by
this paper are true, for he says if
Governor Kitchin had been as active
and aggressive after his election as
he was during the campaign that
"he would have denounced this tooth
less, spineless fraud and joker of
1909, The Governor will never be
able satisfactorily to explain his rec
ord on the trust question.

While in this state the party is not

orrhage was SO severe that the chief
sank very rapidly and breathed his
last at 1880 p. N.
He was fully conscious until just
before the end. and said that the
man who shot him was only about
ten feet away when the shot was
fired. and that he recognized the man
as negro by the name OF Brad Bag
ley. The sheriff. his deputy and a
force OF six men went TO the house
of Bagley about twenty minutes after
the shooting. They found him un-
dressed, arrested him, and he Is now
safely lodged in all.
I The only cause attributed for this
dostardly act on the part OF Bagley
is that he has for some time been en-
gagged in the liquor traffic and Chief
White recently caught him in the act
of selling a pint OF whiskey. For that
offense Bagley was placed under a
bond for his appearance at the Sep

SIMMONS GETS "COLD FEET"
AGAIN.

Senator Simmons refusal to vote
on the cotton tariff schedule shows
that the Senator either doesn't know
what he stands for or that he is
afraid for the voters in North Caro-
lima to find out where he stands. A
correspondent of the News and OBJ
server stated a few days ago that
Simmons and Overman were not OPP
posed to the cotton schedule, while
yesterdays Charlotte Observer stated
that Simmons and Overman will fight:
against consideration of the bill. Sim
mons attitude in that matter is sim
liar to his white feather proceedings
in regard to the high cost of living.
It will be remembered that he had
great deal to say about the high cost
of living until he was placed on a
committee to investigate the real
cause. He then showed the white
feather, got sick, resigned from the
committee and had to take a rest
AS soon as the investigation was over
he rallied very rapidly and was able
to enter actively into a political cam
paign to discuss matters, which he
had refused to investigate.

How Can the Prohibition Democrats
Support Wilson for President?

Birmingham Age-Herald.
Woodrow Wilson, like all broad
minded statesman of Presidential as
pirations, Is against prohibition as a
political ISSUE" said a Democrat Il
happen to know Wilson; knew his
father before him-the venerable DR..
Wilson, Presbyterian minister-and
both were strong advocates of per-
sonal liberty in thought and ethical
practice. The father was a local OPP
zionist and so is Woodrow. When a
committe OF antitrust leaguers wait
ers on him the other day seeking his
sympathy and support in a State
wide prohibition movement, they got
poor comfort. This is the account a
Trenton correspondent gave of the
conference: Governor Wilson made
it clear to his visitors that he be-
lieved in local self-government and
said that he thought prohibition
should have no place in politics. He
looked upon it as a moral and social
question to be dealt with separately
from the political issues of the day.
So long as he had his way, the Gov
