Colonial is Like a Magnet.

The Colonial theatre was packed
again last night and the large crowds
were more than pleased with the great
program being shown. Jim Foley
sang the Oceana Roll and made big
hit. receiving numerous encores. Clyde
Martin surely plays the pictures. al.

sound effects. He is assisted by Fred

The Tent Meetings.

To the Editor of The Gate City:
Last evening l CHANGED to be in the
neighborhood of the tent meeting a.
the corner of Eleventh and Palean,
and hearing the singing stepped il
and took my seat at the rear of the
tent and was more than pleased with
the service. The new songs which
they sang were some of the best
have heard. The people Sang as If they
enjoyed what they we're singing. The
speaker used for his subject What
shall 1t profit man if he gain the
whole world and lose his own soul.

EYE NOT PATRIOTIC ENOUGH
ocuIist's Second Attempt Procures fol
Him Decoration From Haitien
Emperor.

During the reign of Emperor Sou
lougue in Haiti one of his generals
wrote to an eminent oculist in Paris
X ordering a glass eye. The oculist fiat
tered himself that successfully con-
structed artificial optic would secure
for him decoration of honor by the
Haitian government; accordingly, he
devoted his entire skill to the produc-
tion of a work of art.
Six months after the shipment OF
the eye to Haiti, the oculist received a
small box from Haiti. In his imagina-
tion he pictured the golden testimonial
to his skill, SO it was with horror that,
when he had unwound the folds OF cot
ton In the box, he saw returned bis
work Of art. A letter accompanied the
box. Among other things it said:
y THE eve you have forwarded me is
Z Of tint that resembles that Of the
Spanish flag, and am too patriotic to
wear any but the color Of my coun
try"
Whereupon the oculist proceeded al
once to the admiralty, where he ascer
tanned the colors of the Haitian flag
He then Immediately manufactured Q
scarlet and green eye, Of the approved
shades, and forwarded it to the em
peror, who was much pleased with the
effort and who duly decorated the ocu
list.

Curious Marriage Custom.

The Kurds have a very curious and
somewhat dangerous marriage custom
which one would think would be more
honored in the breach than in the OBJ
servance. The husband, surrounded
by bodyguard of twenty or thirty
young men, carries his wife home on
his back in a scarlet cloth and is des-
perately assaulted the whole way by a
humber of girls. Sticks and stones
are hurled at the bridegroom, who in
the coming home with his bride can
hardly be considered very happy
man, for the irate amazons often in
hict on him marks which he carries
to the grave 1t may be that among
the lady pursuers are some of the
oridegroom's former ''fiames,' who
turn the mock attack into downright
earnest to avenge sighted love.

Ship Subsidies.

President Taft has not yet ex-
planned why all the benefits of a
ship subsidy would not be as well
accomplished if the government
built the subsidized ships and
owned them, as if it gave the
money away to private owners.
The greater advantage of the latter
plan to subsidize ship owners is
obvious enough; but what about
the government? Socialism for
the government to own merchant
vessels? Possibly, but we think
that private ownership of mer-
chant vessels built with public
money might worthily bear even
harsher name.
Senator Newlands seems to have
the right idea of subsidy if subsidy
there is to be. 1t relates to pro-
posed subsidy Of thirty millions
for steamship lines to Central and
South American ports. Senator
Newlands," says the San Diego
Sun, proposes this plan: Instead
Of giving thirty millions to private
enterprise, let US build thirty ships
costing one million dollars each.
Let us lease these ships to organ
ICED commercial bodies in various
seaport cities, SO that they may
develop foreign trade for both To-
cal and national benefit, paying q
rental which shall cover deprecia-
ton and reasonable interest on
the Investment. Let US enroll the
'seamen employed on these leased
steamships AZ members Of the
auxiliary navy, paying them d
monthly bonus out Of the national

Decay Gives Radium Power.

Uranium appears to have a decadent
life history, breaking into other ele-
ments--of which radium is one-which,
In its turn, yield the emanation, and
other elements designated as radium
A, B, etc.
The theory has been propounded
that uranium, thorium and radium are
undergoing atomic disintegration, and
the heat that radium evolves Is the
direct outcome of explosions of the
atomic structure. Elements of lower
atomic weight thus result, and hence

The County Paper.


The Publishers AaIriIiary of recent
date makes note of an address de-
livered by Mr.. @. Pearson before
the School of journalism. The
speakers subject was the editorial
columns OF the country weekly.
He took the ground that it were
well for the publisher of the coun-
try weekly to dispense with the ed
itorial column in his paper and
leave the matter of editorial writ
ings to the editors of the metro
pol1tan dailies. This piece of adj
vice to the young and sprouting
journalists of the School of Jour
nalism is little short of pernicious.
About the only independence of
thought we find in the editorial
columns of the newspapers of to-
day is to be found in the columns
of the country press. The country
editor alone now speaks for the
people at large on questions of
politics, morals and other matters
of public concern. The metropol-
itan daily is nothing but money
making machine without soul or
conscience, owned by corporate
wealth and run for the money that
is in it. The country would soon
be at the mercy and the people at
the feet of the plutocIats if the
thoughts and the opinions of the
masses were to be moulded by the
editorial writer's of the big daily
papers. A good illustration of
the influences back of the editorial
columns of the metropolitan dali
lies of the country was given in
the political campaign of 1896,
when the money-lords of the land
united to prevent the people TAX
ing from them the control of the
money system of the country. Ev-
cry metropolitan daily paper in
the country, East, West, North
and South, irrespective Of past po-
litical affiliations, joined IN an ef-
fort to prevent the election of VIM.
j. Bryan to the Presidency. On
every important question in poli-
tics, or in religion and morals also,
if the financial interests of corpor-
ate wealth are at stake, the large
daily papers of the country invari-
ably voice the opinion of the
financial lords who own and con-
troll them. The country ed itor,
less able and less posted, perhaps.
on big affairs, speaks neverthe- =
less in behalf of the common peo.
pie, of whom ne is one; their in
terests are his interests, their vel
| fare his welfare. And the editori-
al lecturer who advises the coun-
try brother to keep still and let the
