We find it necessary once more
to call the attention Of those who
patronize our "Question and
Answer" to the instructions
printed at the head of that de-
partment. We have received many
questions signed Subscriber, "

ing Of attention; but our invari-
able rule is not to recognize
anonymous letters. All questions
intended for this department must
be signed with the name of the
inquirer, not for publication, but
as an evidence of good faith
otherwise they find their way to
the waste basket. The questions,
also, must be Of general interest
and appertain to religious mat
tiers, and not to purely secular
affairs. IL those rules are observed
questions will be answered in the
order in which they are received.
The number of questions sent in is
evidence Of the popularity of the

LINCOLN ON SALOON SMASHING.

In or about the year 1889, while
Abraham Lincoln was practicing law
at Springfield, fifteen women of Clin-
ton, Illinois, after having repeatedly
pleaded with a liquor dealer to re-
frain from selling to their husbands,
raided his saloon, smashed in the
heads of his barrels with axes and
broke his demijohns and bottles. The
women were arraigned under indict-
ment for the mischief done. They
were without counsel for defense
when, on the day of the trial, Mr..
Lincoln entered the court room, and
was asked by them to address the
court in their behalf. Mr.. Lincoln
said: ..
MAY it please the court, will say
a few words in behalf of the women
who are arraigned before your honor
and the jury. I would suggest, first,
that there be change in the indict-
ment so as to have it read, the State
against Mr.. Whisky instead of the
State against the women It would
be far more appropriate.
Touching this question, there are
three laws: First, the law of self-pro-
lection; second, the law of statute;
third, the law of God. The law OF self
protection is the law Of necessity, as
shown when our fathers threw the tea
into the Boston harbor, and in assert
ing their right to life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness. This ia the de-
tense OF these women. The man who
has persisted in selling whisky has
had no regard for their well-being or
the welfare of their husbands and
sons. He has had no fear of God or
regard for man; neither has he had
any regard for the laws Of the statute.
No jury can fix any damages or infiict
punishment for any violation of the
moral law. The course pursued by
this liquor dealer has been for the
decentralization of society. His grog-
gerry has been a nuisance These
women, finding all moral suasion of no
avail with this fellow, oblivious to all
tender appeal alike regardless Of their
prayers and tears, i'm order to protect
their households and promote the well
fare Of the community, united to sup
press the nuisance. The good OF so
ciety demanded its suppression. They
accomplished what otherwise could
not have been DONE"
As result of the speech the ladies
were released by the court upon their
own recognizance, and 80 far as can
be learned, no further action was
taken. The facts may be found I'm

CATHOLIC ORIGIN OF THE
JUVENILE COURT.

There is an impression existing
in many quarters that the Juven-
lie Court is an American institu-
ton. The Pittsburg Observer says
that this erroneous impression has
arisen probably from the fact that
little if anything was known of
the existence of such an excellent
reformatory institution before the
work of Judge Lindsey Of Denver
and Judge DeLacy of Washington
began to bulk large in the public
view. But the idea of segregating
youthful transgressors, of keeping
them from contact with ordinary
criminals, and of subjecting them,
when found guilty, to a system OF
discipline and supervision calcu-
lated to reform rather than to har-
den them, is by no means new.
The St. Philip Neri House of Cor
rection was established in Flor
ence, Italy, in 1877 by the Orator
ian priest, Father Franco, for the
purpose Of caring for, retaining
and educating youthful wrong
doors who would otherwise be
jailed in the company of malefac-
tors Of every description, associa-
ton with whom could only have
the effect of stimulating their pro-
pensities to evil-doing. Mention
may also be made of st. Michael 3
House Of Refuge, Rome, which
was founded in 1703 by Pope Gle
ment XI, of which a Protestant
writer named Smith, in book
published in Philadelphia in 1888,
said: "The first reform Of peni-
Tertiary discipline is due to Catho-
lie Rome. The prison there in
which it was introduced for the
first time has remained for more
than century a striking example
of what Christian benefcence can
do. The scope Of this noble insti-
tuition is reform, not the infection
of punishment" In November,
1903, the Pope named established
a special prison for boys, regu-
lated by a form Of discipline suit
able for them. He also founded a
special court in connection with
st. Michael's House Of Refuge, in
which all offenders under twenty
years were to be tried; and ap-
pointed priests to give religious
instruction to these juvenile Of
tenders and master mechanics to
teach them handicrafts and to
keep the youths employed at them.
Pope Plus TX founded the colony
of st. Balbina for the reclamation
and reform of youthful law-break-
ers. Credit, therefore should be
given where it is due.

DOMAIN OF TEMPERANCE.
CURE or iNEBRIATEs.

Thoughtful people everywhere,
recognize that the inebriate is sick and
wants help. His repeated failures
show that he is incapable of helping
himself. His sickness is not one thing
alone. 1t is combination of condi-
tions, and his use of alcohol Is very
often only symptom and craving for
relief.
Nothing gives him such a perfect
change as some form of alcohol, writes
DIR. Crothers, of Hartford, Conn.,, in
The Temperance Educational Quarter
ly. 1t brings forgetfulness of misery,
of trouble and fears. Once more he
seems to be at his best. 1t is this de-
fusion of the tonic and stimulant quail
tiles of spirits, that causes him to re-
peat it's use over and over again.
The cure is to build up some condi-
ton of the brain and body that will
not require spirits for relief There
are many drugs that will break up,
for the time being, the demand for
spirits, but none of them are per-
manent. They are like giving opium
for pain. The pain is diminished, but
the causes remain and continue.
The treatment consists in finding
out what these causes are and remov-
ing them. Then the cure is very GER
tain. If the man is starved from bad
foods, bad air, too much exercise or
not enough and too much excitement,
absence of sleep, and quiet rest, there
will be exhaustion and for this he will
call for spirits.
Remove these conditions Then he
is on the road to recovery. Bad COM
pany, bad surroundings, bad thoughts
all help on the exhaustion for which
spirits is the only remedy.
The inebriate needs the doctor first,
to determine what his conditions are.
Then every help that can be found and
every moral influence from church and
society and family is needed Very
often the cure of drink comes from
surroundings.
Institutions for the cure of inebri-
ates bring this change. They correct
bad habits and physical conditions.
They train the patient to degree of
health and then, the church, the So
ciety and the influence of good men
and women is needed to keep up the
vigor which has been started.
There are no drugs alone that will
do this, but there are a great many
drugs that are valuable, but they must
be supplemented with other things.
The mind must be trained as well as
the body. The best statistics show that
fully one-third of all inebriates can be
permanently restored by the exact use
of means and measures.
| This is along the line of the scien-
tific application of measures and
means that are not mysterious or new,
but can be understood by everybody.
If the inebriate will combine with the
efforts of his friends, faith and works,
and follow them steadily, his cure is
certain. There must be no mistakes.
He must work himself, and his friends
with him, and the results can be pre-
dicted with great certainty in all cases.
There are no patent drugs that
should be depended upon, but good
physician; a good physicians advice
and counsel is needed. It is sick
ness that requires help from physical
and mental remedies. Then the poor
victim can escape.

passed by sane and patriotic
Ecitizens on these facts. Tt will
endeavor to be as accurate as pos
sible in it's presentation Of the
case whether for or against So
cialism SO that every reader may
be able to judge for himself
whether or not this magazine
with a mission" is worthy of his
support. 1t is non-political as
regards the various parties, and
non-sectarian as regards religion.
A glance at the table of con-
tents shows the scope of the first
issue which may be taken as a
criterion of what future issues
will present to it's readers. Among
the topics discussed are 1The
Basic Principles of Socialism by
Jefferson Lee; "The Dangers That
Threaten our Schools" by Bird s..
Coler; would Socialism Destroy
the Family?" by Thomas S. Loner-
gan; "The Menace of Radical
Education" by John R. Meader;
'sThe Issues That Confront The
Unions" by David Goldstein; and
many other topics Of interest at
the present time. Besides these
there is an editorial department,
review of events connected with
social work, a question box for the
solution Of problems dealing
with Socialism, a review of books
bearing ON social topics and var
ious selections from socialists and
public men in regard to the
problems that are agitating the
world of socialistic thought at the
present time.
This magazine will undoubtedly
be welcomed by all who are in
terested in the study of Socialism
and the presentation and discus
sion of it's principles from an i'm
partial standpoint. While 'The
Common Cause is not avowedly
Catholic it has a number Of Cath
Ole writer's among it's contribut-
ors who will present the teachings
of Socialism from the Catholic
viewpoint. We bespeak for it a
welcome from all who are inter
ested in the study Of the problems
with which it proposes to deal.
There can be no doubt that So
cialism is one of the great prob
lens that clamor for a solution
1t will not be thrust aside. Its
doctrines are preached from
housetop and street corner. They
are the shibboleth of those who
are dissatisfied with the present
social order and for one reason OF
another cherish a grudge against
their fellowmen. It's principles
! are subversive of the foundation
OF society as at present con.
bstituted; and it's foremost ex-
j ponents leave no room in their
| systems for God or religion. Cath.
olics especially should be prepared
to discuss the questions involved
In socialistic theories with an in.
telligent appreciation of the situa.
ton, and any source Of reliable
information in regard to Socialism
should be taken advantage of by
them. If "The Common Cause
lives up to the promise made in
tits first issue it will, no doubt, ad.
vance the interests Of religion and
citizenship and do much to expose
the false principles upon which
the socialistic propaganda is
based.

TWO WAYS WITH HOGS.

Care Taken With Animals Repaid
Owner In Amount Of Pork Yielded.
The results of different treatments
of hogs came to my notice last spring,
when a neighbor sold two average pigs
eight weeks old to man who did not
have any other hogs, says west VIZ
ginia correspondent of the American
Agriculturist He bought the two hogs
to make pork the next fall and, OF
course. wanted to give them a good
chance to do their best They were fed
wheat middlings, milk and scraps from
the table in addition to the pasture
they gathered. They were grade
Chester Whites. farrowed in April.
These two pigs dressed between loO
and 175 pounds each when about seven
months old.
The pigs that had not been sold and
out of the same litter were allowed to
run on pasture, and when corn was
ready to feed they were fed enough
corn to put them in pork condition.
but when slaughtered at about the
same time as the other two they only
weighed sixty-tive to seventy pounds
each. There was a difference of nearly
1 100 pounds between these well fed
hogs and their mates not so fed, and
it was wholly due to different treat
ments. 1t is easy to see which was the
more economical pork producer-the
we'll cared for hog or the one which
got enough feed to barely live until
fattening time The difference in value
was almost $40 as pork sold at 1C
cents a pound here last fall. The two
we'll cared for hogs did not eat neal
$40 worth Of feed from the time they
were separated from their mates unit
they were slaughtered.

has also been reared from the black
knot of plum and from gals on oak
and elm.
Its life history and habits probably
parallel those of the codling moth. 1t
is known to be present quite generally
in orchards from Canada south to
Georgia and west to the Rocky noun
tains. 1t has been found ab,lndantly in
apples in the Puget sound district in
Washington and Is known also from
British Columbia.
The schedule Of treatments recon-
mended for the codling moth will be
effective in the control of this species.
The treatment for the codling moth
is limited almost entirely to spraying
the trees with arsenicals. such as paris
green or arsenate of lead. The latter is
now principally used. In the east the
poison is usually combined with
fungicide. In some sections banding OF
trees is also employed and under spe-
cial conditions is valuable adjunct to
spraying. From two to five spray ap-
plications are given. according to the
section of the country and the season.
OF all treatments the first Is much
the most important. This Is given as
soon as the blossoms have fallen and
has for it's object the placing of poison
in the calyx cup of each little apple
This treatment may be successfully
given during the eight or ten days be-
tween the dropping of the petals and
the closing of the calyx lobes.

were not available. Her grain ration
from the first was gradually increased
to twenty-five pounds or little more.
but later reduced to as low as nine
pounds per day.
As near as can be estimated, the av-
erage amount of grain fed was twelve
or fourteen pounds daily. She also re-
ceived. when it was available, green
corn with the stalks and also green
clover and any other green feed that
might be available. including feed
from the pasture.
A cow of fair qualities produces four
gallons of milk daily. She is not worth
keeping for a dairy unless she will do
this. and remember 1t takes no more
feed, room or labor for one giving five
gallons than for one giving three or
four.
This reasoning applies with equal
force to other kinds Of stock, but more
particularly horses and swine. 1t re-
auires only a little intelligent care in
selection to raise a horse that will bring
$3.50 to $500, whereas $50 to $500 Is
the price of an ordinary animal. The
feed bill Is not dollar more.
In raising cows breeding and selec-
ton will produce animals that will
earn 500 to $50 a year or that will
sell for 500 to $500, while the indif'
ferent kind are worth next to nothing
There is the same difference in breed
ing hogs. The gain comes chiefly after
the owner has produced something 9
little better than ordinary. This truisn
applies to poultry. fruit and farming
generally.

ITO grasp the idea Of money making
through selecting the better types
of live stock farmers need to
learn the story Of Banostine Belle de
Kol, queen of the dairy world. This
Holstein COW, now five years old and
owned by Dimmick & Bro. Ohio breed
ers, produced last year 27.4O4.4 pounds
of milk testing 3.S6 per cent fat This
means over nine gallons Of milk per
day, or enough to supply thirty-six fam
lilies each with a quart of milk daily.
II made into butter her fat production
would equal 1922 pounds of butter. or
over three and one-half pounds per
day for 365 days.
This Is all the more remarkable be
cause it was made without her being
dry at all before freshening. No other
COW has ever produced such an enor-
nous amount Of butter fat In yearly
test, and only one has exceeded BanOs-
tines milk record.
Banostine Belle De Kol Is strong,
vigorous COW of wonderful capacity
and weighs in the neighborhood OF
1000 pounds She is the daughter OF
Banostine Belle. who was grand
daughter of Euphrasia A.. one Of the

TONOPAH'S REGU-
Lar MONTHLY
PAY DAY TODAY

Today is the regular monthly pay
day of all the mining and milling
companies in Tonopah. A sum in
the neighborhood of s2SS,OOO is
being paid to employees today. Ii
is figured that the pay has been
increased nearly SIS, 5,0O0 over that
of February, larger number of
men being employed. This amount
of coin being distributed monthly
speaks well for population of
5000. Most of this money will be
invested in Tonopah stocks, as the
miners and mill men know whats
what" in the stock game. There
are hundreds of thousands of shares
of Tonopah and Goldfield mining
stocks held and owned by Tonopah's
laboring class.
