Daniel Boone's Country Today
Just Like It Was Over One
Hundred Years Ago.

The December American Ma
gazine contains an extraordinary
article entitled Burns Of the
Mountains,' which is the story
OF southern mountaineer wht
through almost unprecedented
courage has built college which
ne hopes is to go long way to,
ward remaking his own people
An interesting extract from the
article follows, showing how Dan
lei Boone S trail through the
Cumberland mountains still ex
lists:
- You can go back into the
Cumberland country and the trai
whele Boone crossed, following
the waters, and see that region
pretty much as he found it and
) he left it, country with 4
history arrested, unwritten, wait
ing. The log cabin is the univer-
sal form of the home. You can
lind today the loom, the spinning
wheel, the lard-kettle, the can
dle-mould, and the squirrel rifle,
unc Hanged in a hundred years.
The women there still wear sun
bonnets and they still ride behind
horseback, with their lords and
still stand waiting at a
table while their lords and mas
tcls eat. Strange Elizabethan
phrases of speech still linger Hot
bread still prevails, three meals
a day, and pork when they can
get it. The men do not go west
and pick up prairie-lands, but
toll laboriously with the ak on
steep mountains to open the
land, plow it precariously with
single shovel-plows, or till it la
boriously with hoes-men, wo-
men and children, with hoes. Far
machinery is unknown.
You cannot believe, and sure
iy cannot understand, these thing
without seeing them--cannot be-
lieve that this backward country
is in America as you know it.
But, having seen them, you un-
derstand why these side-tracked
lost for more than
century, do not send their chill
dren to school. There are no
schools, because there are no
roads, because there are no taxes
because there is no money; and,
coming around again in circle,
no possible interchange of COM
mOdities because there are no
roads. There lies the wilder
ness of the old crossing g-place Of
the Alleghanies as Boone saw
it and left it.

 It is unlikely that a majority oi the members of the legislature would ba swayed by any such false notion ef economy. for if such a meager sal arv should be fixed. it would thsn be better to abolish the office of justice of the peace altogether. No man Wi'h any qualifications for the discharge oi

DOWN TO THE GROCERY STORE
Copyright 1911. c. N. Mather)


 Environments runnin' wild these days down to the gruc'ry store. The patriots ain't got no time to do single chore. They cant pay no attention to the farmwork any more, Bekuz they've got to make a choice 'TwiXt Taft and Theodore. The fate of this here nation rest upon what they may do: They're goin' to set the thing to rights before they have got through. Theyre runnin' down each rumor and they're follerin each clew, And not day goes by but what they dig up something new. Look like the farms around these parts will raise a crop of weeds, Bekuz our men have got to tend to this here country's needs; They keep on finding out new things and strickin' brand new leads, And servin' Of ones country is the grandest Of all deeds. The wimmin round these parts al think it is doggone bore; They've heard so much of politics they don't want any more. But politics is pilin' up and arguments galore. It makes good excuse to loaf down 10 the grocery store.

the important duties Of the office could be found to ill it.
 A $1OO salary would be a violent swing of the pendulum in the other direction, a thing to be guarded against when We set about making reforms. It cannot be denied that un- der the fee system many Of the jus. greater compensation than they should have received, say, from s3.OOO to s6.0O0 a year The worst of it was that they and their constables were stimulated 10 the handling of cases which should not have been brought into court at all. This was an abuse which for years efforts had been made in vain to correct.
 The constitution. however, wiped out the fee system and in no circum- stances would we return to it. But we must not err in the other direction. If the precinct officers salaries are made ridiculously small it is but nat ural that such men as would be will. ing to i'll the offices would neglect much business that ought to be trans acted, as, under the fee system. busi- ness that ought not to have been transacted was cooked up"
 The average office expenses of jus tices or the peace in the larger towns, including rent are not less than $50 a month. Thus. under tine proposed bill the compensation of justices would be reduced. at least to 50 month, less than is paid for the lowest grade Of unskilIed labor in these times Of high cost of living.
 Where county boards of supervisors have taken any action in ;he matter of salaries Of justices Of the peace they have been fixed at slo0 a year which seems to be a rather to mod est sum.

WHEN THIEVES FALL OUT.

FALL OUT.
 When thieves fall out honest men set their dues" or else, some inside facts. The Taft headquarters, the oth. CT day, alluded to tn. circumstance that the Roosevelt headquarters had been established, probably rent free. in a building belonging to Publisher Munsey, intimate friend of George Perkins, supposed fnancier of the Roosevelt excitement and right hand man of J. P. Morgan. who is deeply indebted to MT. Roosevelt for favors to the steel trust in giving it permis- sion to absorb the Tennessee Coal and Iron company in direct violation af the Sherman law.
 To this suggestion thrown out from the big top of the Taft circus, Man ager Dixon. in charge of the Roose- welt epidemic, makes replication, not denying the allegations as to free rent. or contradicting any statement made, but he ayers that to his own knowledge this is not the first time that such things have been done Fo: instance. four years ago the republi can national lair consisted of an en- tire floor of a building owned by the harvester trust. And, continues MT Dixon, the republican party was an unremunerative tenant. That is per haps so if we were to judge by the rent paid month by month, though the tenant had probably paid it long in advance and was expected to keep on paying it indefinitely, long in the flu. ture by keeping hands of of the trust.
 We are glad to get this information rom NIT. Dixon. The people need it.. It enables us to classify more accur. ately the regular republicans and 1t equally accurately classifies the Roose welt republicans. The people are there by informed that they can hope for no relief against the great trusts from either the Taftistas or the Roose- veltistas.
 Whatever odium the exposure of the relation of the Taft headquarters to the harvester trust four years ago must raise, will attach in a still great CT degree to NIT. Roosevelt who was the head and front of the Taft cam paign. It was not unnatural that the building of the harvester trust should have been placed at the disposal of the republicans. The intimate rela- tions between the harvester trust and the Steel Corporation have been dis closed by the Stanley investigation The Steel Corporation, as has been well established, was deeply indebted to the republican party under MT Roosevelt. The harvester trust build . .,.,,. tboroforo ff mi tbp logical the natural rendezvous of the repub licans.
 Manager Dixon further warns the Taft promoters that if they want to hang out any more of the family wash ing they will find him on the other side of the fence ready to decorate the Roosevelt clothes line with garments extracted from the soiled linen closet

Basket Picnic for Little Tots.

An enjoyable basket picnic was
given at the Knights of Columbus

participated in the recent plio and
dramatic entertainment for the bene-
lit of the Catholic church. It had
been proposed to give the picnic at
Green Gables, the pretty suburban
home Of Mr.. and Mrs. Camille Ale
man, on Bayou Lafourche, but owing
to the threatening weather this plan
was abandoned and the K. of G.
HAL was selected as the scene of
the pleasant affair The children
assembled at the hall at 8 o'clock a.
m, each carrying a basket filled with
all sorts Of nice things to eat, and
from that hour until o'clock in
the afternoon, when the frolic ter
minated, they romped and made
merry to their hearts content. Mr..
and Mrs. w. D. Park. under whose
direction the benefit entertainment
was staged, We're in charge of the
happy throng Of little folk, and saw
70 it that each and every one had q
good time. Besides attending to the
wants and looking after the comfort
and convenience Of their charges,
Mr.. and Mrs. Park contributed a
generous supply of ice cream and
cake which constituted a particularly
popular item IN the array Of good
things served the pickni ckers through
out the day.
