Overwhelming.

Woodrow Wilson is a brilliant
and convincing political speaker,
but never did candidate for
President have less need to reply
upon the arts of ora tory.
No speeches made by Cover
nor Wilson in his own behalf
could possibly he so strong as
the speeches that Col. Roose-
welt is making for him. No ar
gument advanced by Governor
Wilson in favor of his own cleo
ton could be so strong as the
record of the Taft administra-
ton in his behalf.
Here is a candidate for Presi.
dent who has nothing to fear
and nothing to explain. No
Congressional investigation can
cause him a moment of anxiety.
He is not called upon to appear
before any committee that may
be inquiring into the use of cor
poration money in politics.
So far as he is concerned all
the trusts in the country can
open their books and make
public their contributions to
campaign funds. No Standard
Oil revelations no Hartman
revelations, no Beef Trust reve-
lations, no Penr0se threats
and no Hearst threasts dis
turb the even tenor of his way
No CONTIGUOUS and no Loebs are
required to Substantiate his
statements. No bosses stole
his nomination for him and 0
Wall street plutocrats are fl
nancing his candidacy. He
owes favors neither to the Muir
ray Cranes and the Barneses and
and the Brother Charles nor to
the Perkinses and the Grays.
Nobody suspects him of any al
lance with crooked political ma
chimes or with crooked corpora
tons. No partnerships with
Privileges are lettering by his
door. His is the one untainted
candidacy-the one candidacy
that measures to the truest
political ideals of the Republic.
There are two overwhelming
reasons in support of Woodrow
Wilson'S election to the office of
President of the United States.
One of these reasons is Theodore
Roosevelt. The other is William
Howard Taft.-The New York
World.

Prejudice is a hard thing to overcome,
but where health is at stake and the
opinion of thousands of reliable people
differs from yours, prejudice then be-
comes your menace and you ought to
lay il aside This is said in the inter-
est of people suffering from chronic
constipation, and it is worthy of their
attention.
In the opinion of legions of reliable
constipation imaginable can he cured
by a brief use of DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup
Pepsin. You may not have heard of it
before, but do not doubt its merits on
that account, or because it has not been
blatantly advertised. 1t has sold very
successfully on word of mouth recon-
Tnendation. Parents are giving it to
their children today who were given it

down soils produce again as well as
ever. The trouble is not with the
land, but with the people farming IL,
and their methods, stoutly declares
DR.. whitney.
The Bureau OF Soils is trying to
find out all about the changes in
soils that are wrought as a result Of
cultivation. IL declares that the min
eral and metal basis changes very,
very little. The products of vegetable
and animal growth, on the other
hand, change greatly and modify
soil qualities very much. One will
be useful and benevolent. another
vicious and harmful.
"A certain soil, once producing ex-
cellent crops of wheat. had become
exhausted" Cow-peas ground very
fine were applied and Il was found
they had restored the soil; It produ-
ced a good crop, and did the thing
three times in succession: then the
soil lapsed back into its first condi-
tion Of non-productivity.
why did the cow-peas have that
effect? The Bureau took like proper
tons of potash, phosphoric acid and
nitrates-the plant food elements Of
cow-peas-and put them into the
soil; and It didn't produce the effect
Of restoring its fertility. The point
seemed to be that these various ele-
ments, mixed together and applied 10
the ground. didn't have the genuine
'cow-pea effect.
Doctor Whitney In a recent adj
dress gave this explanation of the
operations within the soil of various
agents introduced through rotation Of
crops. He seems to have a consid r
able backing of authority and ex-
perience in favor of his theory that
fertilization is. at least, much less
necessary. II scientific rotation IS
followed, His bureaus problem is. to
develop the correct scientific rota-
ton for various soils and climates.

Editor of The Citizen,
Dear Sir:

Rogers is still living but l want to
pay her this tribute-she was a kind.

There is no place dearer to my
heart than Berca, the spot where ]
was born and raised. Not even Cali
fornia with her snow-peaked noun
tains In summer and her geraniums
blooming in mid-winter can surpass,
In my estimation, the dark green
mountains that slope off to the blue
grass regions of Kentucky. Memory
brings back now those sweet scenes
Of the days Of my childhood.
The Principals Of Berea College
that | can remember were, John G..
Fee, J. A. r. Rogers, John Hanson,
+. Lincoln and John f. Brighten.
l remember that Father Fees mot
to was God hath made all nations
OF men of one blood" How wish
he could have lived in San Diego dur

I shall never cease to thank the
northern people, and especially Presi-

has been done for the mountain peo-
pie of Kentucky thru Berea College.

GET READY FOR WINTER TERM

The Winter Term of Berea College
opens on Wednesday, Jan. /. Stu
dents should be on hand If possible
on Monday or Tuesday. but 1t is not
advisable for them tc come before
that time.
Che attendance in all departments
has been growing very rapidly, and
last winter a good many students had
to be turned away for lack of ac-
commodations. This year some new
buildings are under construction, and
several dwelling houses will be
equipped for use of students. 1t IS
very important, however, for all that
are intending to be here to engage
rooms in advance. A moments thought
will show that 1t is impossible to
provide accommodations for an I'M
limited number of students on short
notice. All who intend to be here
for the Winter Term should write
Immediately, and send One Dollar for
deposit for reservation Of room so
that we shall be sure they are really
coming. ! shall be glad to correspond
and answer questions.
Cordially yours,

RECORD SILK CARGO
HURRIED EASTWARD


Silk valued at 100000 was rushed
through North Yakima Saturday
morning on Northern Pacific special
train eastbound. There were seven ex.
press cars loaded with the material
which was the largest shipment OF
raw silk ever to enter the port OF
Tacoma. There were 1909 bales in the
lot. The Northern Pacific railway had
a special train In waiting at the Orr.
entail docks at Tacoma and the work
of transferring the cargo upon arri-
val OF the steamship, Antiloehus was
begun at once. Shortly after midnight
the train started for New York and
it passed through North Yakima Satur-
day morning just before o'clock A,
that time various of the local peo-
pie who are connected with the hand
ling of fruit were going to their work
and their curiosity was aroused by
the train of express cars. Naturally
they asked what fruit was coming
from the west in such quantities and
learned that the cars contained near
to a million in value of silk.
