From Here and There

The colored voters of South Africa
are circulating widely petition for
the protection of their race from the
liquor traffic. The petition, which will
be presented to the senate and to the
house of the assembly of the union of
South Africa reads:
That, whereas the colored people Of
this Province are suffering from the
evils which Intoxicating liquor is in
ficting upon them, notwithstanding
the efforts of the more enlightened
and advanced among them to save

them from such evils; and, whereas
legislation is necessary for the protec-
ton of the people from the same evils,
and petitions are being sent to parlia-
ment to make such laws (whether
Europeans desire Prohibition or not),
as shall prevent Intoxicating liquor be-
ing sold or supplied, except medicinal
ly or sacramentally, to any colored
man, woman, or child within the union.
Therefore, in order that such laws
may be facilitated in the operation
thereof, we, the registered voters, do
specially petition your honorable
house to frame such laws without any
exemption of ourselves on account of
our status as registered voters as we

such laws as will protect our people
from further destruction which must
necessarily result from the continued
sale and supply of Intoxicating liquor.

and will give you ten dollars
weekly"
This seemed a fortune to Giuseppe.
And he would have worked for moth
ing to be within sight of his beloved
Minetta. He felt dimly that the day
might arrive when he could help
her.
Blanco had laughed quietly at his
triumph. He felt sure that his cum
ming act, showing Minetta how he
despised her former sweetheart,
would make her despise him too.
But Minetta did not despise Giuseppe.
Blanco, watching them, saw that
the old love was only dormant. He
knew that, though she would not
have dared let herself acknowledge
it, Minetta still loved Giuseppe. He
dared not send him away, for he
wanted to have him in his sight con-
stantly.
He had tried in various ways to
kill him. Once he teased Nero and
sent Giuseppe into his cage. But
Nero only crouched down at his feet.
Another time he rubbed Giuseppe's
clothes with catnip. Giuseppe
smelled nothing and wondered why
the big cats fawned around him and
rubbed against him. But here, too,
he escaped disaster.
Then Blanco began to beat Minetta
and accused her openly of loving
Giuseppe When she denied this in

Giuseppe saw the brUise.
''You have hurt yourself, Minettap'
he exclaimed. What have you done?

ing Blar with it. Then he waited,
as is the italian nature. No good, he
knew, ever came out of evil.
Blanco drank constantly. Nero
knew it. Nero was watching him as
quietly as he watched Giuseppe. The
climax was very near when Giuseppe
saw Blanco strike Mfnetta through
the open door of their tent.
He had been counting the receipts,
but now he dropped these and draw
ing his knife, rushed forward. But

Giuseppe fought the hardest battle
of his life that moment. At last he
conquered. Raising Minetta's hand
to his lips he walked slowly back to
the collection box. He would leave
that afternoon; he would never see
Minetta again.
Minetta went into the lion house
presently. Blanco, who seemed par
ticularly amiable, called her into the
cage. She was Ioath to go; she was
a better trainer than he.

TALKING ONE ROAD
FOR ROCKLAND TRAFFIC.

There is some agitation to devote
road Improvement between Ameri-
can Falls and Rockland to the
development of one good road.
though considerable objection is
taken to the plan because Of the
heavy traffic that one road would
have to stand This year fully 500
600 bushels of wheat will be hauled
over that road and necessarily will
cut it out pretty deep. and it Is
argued that Improvement should be
made on all the roads leading into
the valley, for freighters will natur-
ally use the best road anyway, and
a single road would soon be put out
Of commission.

Everything is progressing in very
satisfactory shape for the Big fair
in September, and it will be an
event OF greater interest than has
marked any previous endeayor along
that line, as there is a concerted
movement to make this fair the
starting point of permanent ex-
hibit
As has been stated all prize-win-
ming exhibits will be retained by
the association, for permanent ex-
hib'tion purposes. and there will be
plenty OF good ones this year,
and they are already coming in. In
addition to the purpose of the Fair
association to provide a permanent
exhibit the Panama mmissioner
has askde that the commercial and
other bodies assist in every manner
to provide a fine exhibit for the
big show in San Diego in 1915 and
this should be done. Coincident
with this it is well TO sound eau
lion at this time in turning over
exhibits to the state, or any depart
ment unless there is absolute guar
antee that they will be returned in
as good order as delivered to the
state. There has been much laxlty
heretofore on the part of the state
immigration department, and sew
eral valuable exhibits have been
totally destroyed, and we recall that

lature that the state was required
to pay for an exhibit of two that
