It saems nothing but right that the
railroads should be allowed to regu-
late the matter of mileage exchange
to suit their own convenience. While
it is a little trouble to exchange
mileage for tickets, it is no great
hardship .on, any one, and in consid-
Grafton Of the fact that mileage is
sold at a reduced rate by the rail-
roads they should be given the right
to handle it in the most expeditions
and economical manner.

Superintendents of Education, the
Trustees OF each school district in
all the counties and all the teachers
in all the counties and all the teach

would have a political pull that no
man has ever had in this State. But
that is exactly what the new school
law would give the State Superin-
tendent of Education if it is passed.
It would make him the master in
stead Of the servant of the people.

Because fellow boarders tainted
him that he was stuck up because he
washed up in his room instead of in
the Kitchen of the boarding house at
| Mount Carmel, Pa, Alex Kaulic, aged
twenty-five years, went out, got two re-
vOlvers and came back and fired at
the boarders
One bullet struck William Mafeski
in the stomach, infiicting a wound that
may prove fatal. He then ran to his
room and barricaded the doors. The
police came, but he fred on them and
drove them away. He held his position
against all comers for five hours. BY
this time the entire town was in a
state of great excitement.
Kaulic fired on everybody who at
tempted to dislodge him. Finally Ser.
geant Walter Snyder and Private
Hyde, Of the state police, stationed al
Shamokin, were summoned. When
they arrived on the scene Kaulic had
just driven back a constable who at.
tempted to fire upon him from an ad
joining house.
The two policemen managed to get
into the house and were going up the
steps to the room, when they heard a
shot. Snyder burst open the door of |
the room, to find Kaulic lying on a
couch with a bullet hole in his tenn
pie. He had buckled an old sword |
that he used while in the Hungarian
army around his waist and had an
extra revolver stuck in the belt.

Every woman inherits certain ways of
doing housework from her mother as the
mother did from her grandmother. One
of these ideas from ancient times concerns
the washing of clothes "Boil EN-, Boil
EN- good, - is the old tradition. Until the
invention of Fels-Naptha soap that was the
only way to wash. Now, isn't it foolish
to keep on boiling clothes, and rubbing
them hard, when way to wash better in
cold or lukewarm water with no hard rub
bing has been found2
Clothes last longer with no boiling to
weaken their fibre Every progressive
woman Is glad to get rid of the hot fire,
steam and suds, as well as the back-break-
ing work Of hard rubbing.
But there's right way and wrong
way to use Fels-Naptha. Start right. Fol-
low the directions on the wrapper and
you 1 have a better, easier, cleaner way of
washing. For other reasons which are ex-
planned on the red and green wrapper,
Fels-Naptha IS just as superior for all kitch-
en- purposes as it is for washing.

BANKERS COMPANY IS
NOW IN MORE TROUBLE

The American Bankers S Assurance
Company, chartered in Delaware
with authorized capitalization of
S10,O 900 and which has its head
quarters at Dover, is in further
trouble. In addition to the fact that
the concern will appear before Chan
cellor Curtis in Wilmington on Sep
tember 26 for the purpose of showing
cause why its charter should not be
revoked, it was learned that it has
lust been called upon to pay 1902,
900 in losses as a result of the failure
of two banks in Idaho. The com
pany insured the deposits in the
bank, this being its principal busi-
ness.
The institutions that failed are /
the First National Bank of Salmon,
Idaho, with losses of 1925, 900, and
the Blackfoot State Bank, of Black
foot, Idaho, with losses of $4,000.
These claims cannot be paid now for
the reason that the Chancellor has
enjOined all the officers of the
company from paying out any
money pending the outcome of the
litigation.
Not only is the Assurance Com
pany confronted with these difficult
ties, but the Postofiice Department
is also making an examination of its
affairs for the purpose of determining
whether the mails were used by it
for fraudulent purposes. 1t devel-
oped that the Governments probe
has been transferred to st. Louis for
a further investigation. The COM
pany was incorporated by St. Louis
interests.
When the concern began business
It bought the Hotel Richardson
rom DR.. j. G. Sharpe and installed
handsome suite of offices on the
Ourth floor. Recently internal
developed. As an out.
'ome Vice-President John B. Chris
enson, who Is IN charge of the
headquarters, gave Insurance Com
missioner Maull information upon
which this official revoked the IL
ense. The information was to the
fleet that l. B. Jones, of St. Louis,
1ho said he was assistant secretary
/ the company, took the books
urlng the absence from Dover of
hrstenson. The latter was in In
annapolis at the time.
The Insurance Commissioner
lned the case over to Attorney
eneTal Gray with the result that
the twenty-sixth instant the
hancellor will hear argument on a
otlon to have the charter revoked.

BIRD LEAVES WEST
TO WINTER IN EAST

WASHINGTON. ID. c., Nov. "a
The North American continent has
the distinction of possessing a unique
member of the bird family which
migrates from west 10 east. instead
OF north to south, flying away in the
fall and returning in the spring.
The particular member of the
feathered tribe which confers this
particular honor. on the northern half
OF the western hemisphere is the
evening grosbeak, a little smaller
than the catbird, with brown back
and breast, black tips on it's head and
tail and beak that enables 1t to
crush almost anything, from a wild
blackberry 10 the tough shell OF a
hazel nut
Prof. w w. Cooke. a government
scientist, told the Biological society
of the evening grosbeaks habit and
peculiar migration.
Another peculiar fact about this
bird" said Prof Cooke "is that not
more than ten OF its nests have been
found, although it is by no means un-
common during the winter in Mich
igan, Wisconsin. Minnesota, Iowa, Ne
braska and neighboring states"

STANDPATTERS NOT
ABREAST OF THE TIMES
Senator LaFollette Says They
Have Refused To Recognize
Changing Conditions.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-Unlted
States Senator LaFollette shps far
ahead in his biography in the current
number of the American Magazine
and describes in detail, his idea or the
difference between a Progressive
and "A stahdpat," on the tarin ques-
| ton.
Quoting from Blaine's Twenty
wears in congress-" Senator LaFol-
lette writes:
Protection does not in
vite competition from abroad, but Is
based on the contrary principle that
competition at home will always pre-
vent monopoly on the part OF capi-
talists. assure good wages to the Ia
boring man, and defend customers
against the evils OF extortion.
But the trouble" says LaFollette'
has been that domestic competition
did not prove the strong regulator OF
commerce that the early protection
| lists believed Ii would. Money inter-
ests began to form monopolies behind
the tariff wall and both consumers
and wage earners began TO suHer
from extortion
'"rhe difference on the tarin be-
tween the progressive Republicans
and the so-called Stand pat Republi-
cans lies exactly here. The progress
siyes have seen this vast revolution
in economic conditions and have
recognized the need of radical
changes in our tariff system, whlle
the standpat Republicans. led Dy
Aldrich, Penrose, Lodge, Smoot and
others have refused to recognize the
changed conditions They believe In
keeping the tariff wall as high as pos
sible notwithstanding the extortion'
ate growth of the combinations.
"They believe II is more important
TO keep up the profits OF the com
bined manufacturers than TO keep
down the prices for the people. The
massage of the Payne-Aldrich tarifi
bill OF 1903 was the most outrageous
assault OF private interests upon the
people recorded in history.
Senator LaFollette enters a plea Tor
scientific tariff commission TO de-
termine the proper tariff rates In
future, but says the present commits
sion is utterly useless for the pur-
declares the tariff commission should
be at the service OF congress instead
of the semi-confdential advisers OF
the president.
For IL is congress" he says,
which Is charged with the duty OF
framing tariff laws. Congress must
determine whether a given industry
must be protected at all We do not
want to protect a raw material, like
lumber and phosphates where pro-
lection merely adds to the exhaustion
of our natural resources. We ought
to work toward a condition In which
American enterprise, good manage
ment, clever and powerful machinery,
intelligence and skill OF the workers
will enable us TO have low cost OF Ia
Dor along with high wages to the la
borer."
