What Simplicity Portends.

This is period OF studied simple
lty in dress which does not imply
that dress is any the less costly mere
ly that we see no beauty in elabora'
ton or superfiuity. and display a pref
ty tendency TO wear wreaths OF Wild
flowers on our hats instead OF plumes
and roses.
Incidentally. no more striking proof
can be furnished OF an artificial age
than a love of simplicity. In Charles
lis day, the fair ladies posed as shep-
herdesses. and tried to be the hero
ines OF pastorals. though never taken
as whole. was society less near to
nature. The Roman nobility believed
In a return to the primitive life. while
indulging in the greatest luxury. The
people who are really poor cherish no
happy illusions about plain attire and
palmer fare. To them they are mere
ly accomplishments OF poverty OF
which they are ashamed since they
cannot help.

Every one likes to see smiling
face and to smile becomingly one
must cultivate a cheerful and sympa-
thetic condition OF mind. The face
wreathed In smiles is like a perpetual
sunshine In a house. II is Irresistible
and conquers all hearts. A smiling
mouth loses half It's charms II the
eyes do not correspond: for the eyes
are the windows OF the soul. and the
smile that lies only about the lips
soon dies away. leaving an Indifferent
spirit to survey and chill the world.
Cultivate the art OF smiling not with
your lips. but with your eyes. Every
one can have laughing eyes. They
are not matter OF Inheritance, nor
can they be acquired with the aid OF
the masseuse and the professional
beauty specialist. Love is a great
transformer. The sternest features
may be softened. the hardest natures
humanized by love.

cent. of grain to the cob Briefly II
should be stated that the rows of ker-
nels should be straight, running from
butt TO tip; the kernels wedge-shaped.
thus insuring a large per cent. of the
corn on the cob. The burrows. or
the space between the kernels, should
be narrow; the grains deep, the cob
comparatively small. The color OF the
Kernels should be uniform. having no
indication of mixed variety. All ears
that show immaturity or rotted ker-
nels should be eliminated. and espe-
cial care should be taken to select
ears with large germs. The fact should
be borne in mind that a large yield
requires ears that are we'll filled and
as few nubbins and barren stalks as
possible. 1t costs as much to produce
nubbfns as 1t does good ears. and or
20 bushels to the acre will
cost as much work and other expense
as 40, hence the economy of increas-
Ing the yield.

The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1912-07-20

A progressive republican hands
in the following account of the
Chicago convention, taken from
the Appeal to Reason:
"A hundred yards from where
Lincoln was nominated, the re-
publican party has just auctioned
off the presidency. If the cam
paign of 1860 took the negro off
theIauction block, that of 1912
put the president in his place.
The process has torn the repub-
lican party to fragments. Such
scene has never before been
presented to the American peo-
pie. Three millions of dollars
poured out in buying presiden-
tial playthings for the trusts of
America. Roosevelt, the mouth
piece of the harvester trust, rail-
road and steel trust, screaming
his bids at the auctioneer, trying
to drown out the shouts of Taft
speaking for the Standard Oil
trust, the tobacco trust and the
banking trust. Twelve hundred
sergeants at arms controlled by
Taft, eight hundred policemen

lent by the democratic mayor of
Chicago to the republican Roose-
velt, fire companies in each end
of the hall ready to play the hose
upon opponents, chairs chained
down lest they be used as weap-
ons, and the first regiment arm
ory across the street kept vacant
for the possible use of militia
men if they be needed; this is a
picture of the republican con-
vention selling out to the high
est bidder"

HiaCter now important Cne state
business matters awaiting his
action. he will neglect them any,
time to get into the limelight at
a public gathering. No other
executive spent less time in
Olympia on the job. His trips
away are not on state business;
they are primarily to keep him in
the limelight. to give him oppor-
tunity to shine by the light of
his office. And he plays the
game always to get with the
Swell" crowd, stops always at
the best hotel and is generally
inaccessible to the ordinary tax
payer. Of course with the sys-
tenn of invitations he has estab-
lished, dates conflict frequently.
Then he selects the one where he
thinks the more important people
will be present and sends word
to the others unable to accept
because of the pressure of state
business" Which message
sounds fine to those that do not
know the facts. If Hay loses his
state job he has sense enough to
realize that he loses his limelight
social position. That has become
the great desideratum to him.
He will not quit until he is de-
feated at the polls. j. H. Brown
in State Capitol Record.
The spectacle of William How
ard Taft. rebuked by the Ameri-
can people for betrayal of his
word, is not a pleasing one. Yet
it is a lesson-example which is
well to impress upon the young
man and the young woman who
will this year cast the first vote.
The lesson is that honesty and
integrity are worth more than
any office in this land.
President Taft's situation is
the most melancholy spectacle in
in all our national life. He had
served barely two years
in the office given him by the
American people, when they re-
pudiated him by the election of
a democratic house. He had
served but little more than three
years when his own party de-
nounced him, and wherever pri-
mary elections were held the
people voted to down him by an
overwhelming vote. During his
partial term of office he had used
every effort to thwart the COM
mon people who elected him yet
before his election he promised
his efforts in their behalf. He
had promised a revision of the
tariff downward-yet after elec-
tion he went over body and soul
to the corporate interests which
are fattening themselves off the
labors of the workers. He vetoed
every bill which promised relief
to the consumers, and counseled
delay in progressive measures.
The American people are not
so slow to anger as some would
claim. Injustice and prevarica-
ton do not rest well in public
office any longer. The people
turned against President Taft,
and all the wheels of his crooked
Wall street machinery were nee
essary to turn his denoument in
to denomination.
Now he has prepared another
platform for another campaign.
Will one man in the nation be-
lieve him again? One mistake
would have been overlooked
but dozens Of deliberate acts are
not forgotten.
The young voter and the young
politician have an example of
what will hereafter befall a dis
honest Office seeker. Let them
mark it well.
IOrimer has at last been
The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1912-07-20

The Spokesman Review, form
erly for Taft, next for Roosevelt
and progressive" policies, now
comes out for Taft's brand of
high tariff, and opposes the dem
ocratic platform of tariff reduc-
ton.
The Review has ever been on
the side of the "big interests"
and during the coming impor-
tant campaign will again stand
with the money ed classes against
the masses. ''Progressivism"
was just a joke.
Why?
The owner of the Review is
reputed to be worth a million.
Millionaires like protection.
But who is going to protect
the common working man, or
the farmer, or the producer?
The Colville examiner. [volume] (Colville, Wash.) 1907-1948, 1912-07-20

The doubtful season for wealth
er and politics evidently having
passed, we may now expect sew
eral months of heat accompanied
by growing season for candi-
dates. What the harvest will be, I
the Lord only knows, but it is to
be hoped that most of the dry
rot can be exterminated by cleo
tion time. Two years ago the
voters harvested most of it in
this section, and have had it
with them ever since.
The non-partisan quality Of
President Taft's tariff board is
not exactly emphasized by the
fact that one member is a good
enough standpat republican to
be made secretary of the nation
al republican committee.
The Roosevelt boosters who
honestly wanted a progressive
party are now finding it in the
Wilson and Marshal party. The
Wisconsin LaFollette papers are
now for Wilson. Some of the
seven governors" who called
for Roosevelt are now for Wilson.
The republican governor, of
Michigan is now for Wilson.
Many former republican papers
throughout the north are now
for Wilson.
The Roosevelt people who have
gone back to the old party with
Taft as their leader show them
selves not at all sincere in claim
ing to be progressive, and the
voters will watch them carefully.
Honesty in politics is now being
demanded by the voters who
have been fooled so long.
1t would be amusing, were it
not so disgusting, to note the
way in which the county's So
called progressive" Office hold
ers rush into print with an
nouncements that they will run
for Office again on the good old
republican ticket. If they were
"progressives" a month ago,
how are they republicans again?
Were they wrong then, or are
they wrong now, or is it simply
a case of getting on the band
wagon and whoopin' 'er up for
the successful republican faction,
right or wrong?
