KIPLlNG ATTACKS HOME RULE.
Bitter Poem Against the Irish Bill by
tho EnaIish Writer.

Rudyard Kipling's slashing denuncia-
tory poem on the Irish home rule bill
Is entitled 'Ulster." 1t follows:
The dark eleventh hour
Draws on and sees US sold
To every evil power
We fought against of old
Rebellion, rapine hate,
Oppression, wrong and greed
Are loosed to rule our fate.
BY England's act and deed
The faith in which we stand,
The laws we make and guard,
Our honor, lives and land
Are given for reward
To murder done by night
To treason taught by day,
To folly, sloth and spite,
And we are thrust away.
The next two stanZas of ulster" de-
clare the home rulers to be England's
foes. The poem concludes:
We know war is prepared
On every peaceful home;
We knnw hell Is declared
For s@ch as serve no Rome;
The terror, threats and dread
In market, hearth and field
We know when all Is said.
We perish If We yield.

the beginning of new era in the poll

leadership of Governor johnson the
Progressives have maintained their
ascendancy to the present day.
While Eugene V. Debs has been a
candidate for president on the Socialist
ticket ever since 1900, his running mate
is making his first race. 1t was Emil
Seidel's victory as a candidate for may
or Of Milwaukee that first awakened
the country to the growth of socialism
While Seidel was not reelected, it re-
quired combination Of both old par
ties to defeat him. He was born in
Ashland, Pa, went to Germany as a
boy and learned woodcarving and then
settled in Milwaukee. He was once a
candidate for governor and was an al
derman before his election as mayor.
Aaron Sherman Watkins, Prohibition
candidate for vice president, was the
nominee for the same office in 1908. He
also ran twice for governor Of Ohio.
He was born in Ohio in 1868, was edu-
Gated at the Northern university at
Ada, admitted to the bar, became a
teacher in the public schools, entered
the ministry, was professor of litera-
ture and philosophy at Ada, president
Of Asbury college and is now a lee
turer. That is certainly wide enough
experience to fit man for almost any

DEVELOP LONG MILK PERIODS
Much Depends on Breed, Individual
Character of Cow and Feed
One Good Plan Given.

The length Of the milking period
OF a COW depends largely on the breed,
the individual characteristics of the
COW and her feed. It is generally be-
neved by dairymen, however, that the
length Of the first milking period of
heifer will influence the milking peri.
ods Of her life, and to this end the
first milking period is prolonged as
long as possible.
! In developing mixer the plan is to
keep up the milk flow clear up to with
in two or three weeks OF calving the
second time in order to fix the habit
of long milking periods. The milk
drawn will often be in too small
amounts to pay for the time and trou-
BILE spent in getting it. II the heifer
comes Of good stock it is well to
give the plan trial at any rate.

Here is another circumstance that
illustrates Governor Johnson's mod
esty. who's Who" has not a line
about him except that he Is governor
Of California, and that he could not
well conceal. If we do not know
when he was born, however, we know
where. That occurred In Sacramento.
His father Is Grove L. Johnson. a
lawyer and for years member of the
legislature, where he stood close to
the Southern Pacific. 1t was on this
point that father and son broke, but
we are getting ahead of the story.
After having a part in a reform ad-
ministration in Sacramento the future
governor went to San Francisco, where
he first became prominent In helping
Francis ]. Heney prosecute the graft
cases. At one time he withdrew from
the case. Friends urged him to return.

pleading with him when word came

The doctor learns that strippings in
a quarry near Jansen, Utah, have re

fossil dinosauria of huge size, which
appear to be lying undisturbed. Up to
the present time the work of excavat-
ing has disclosed nearly dozen skele-
tons, one-half of which are practically
perfect, all the bones lying in place.
DR.. Holland says it is the greatest col
lection of Sauropod dinosauria which
has ever been found in the history of
paleontology.
The quarry, which is under the su
pervision of DR.. Holland, is nine miles
north of Jansen. The bone level now
reached is in the bed Of an old river.

Since the foundation Of this govern

Mr.. Sherman was born in Utica in
