the almost unanimous choice of Frank
]. Tracy.
But the state organization would not
accept this verdict, and put the matter
up to Postmaster General Burleson and
President Wilson to decide. The case
Of Ipswich was to be the test.
Pomaster General Burleson on April
$ in a letter to Representative Dillon
stated the position of the department.
1t was to the effect that the depart
ment did not recognize any obligation
to observe these primaries.
Monster petitions were sent to the
White House and to Secretary of State
Bryan, and the Wilson administration
was told that now was the time foi ii
to stand by its colors in regard to its
declarations in favor of primaries.
The state organization stood pat on its
recommendation of EDgler. So did
the postmaster general. The presi-
dent did not withdraw the nomins-
ton.
There has been opposition in the
senate led by senator Sterling, but
the end came, and the outcome is a
victory for the state machine and a
defeat for the South Dakota law which
gives the patrons of a ~postofice a voice
in the selection of their postmaster.

GENIUS AND VANITY.
Sehopenhauer Was Not Bit Afraid to
Praise Himself Out Loud.

Sehopenhauer Was Not Bit Afraid to
Praise Himself Out Loud.
Schopenhauer, the great German phi
losopher. afforded one Of the most re-
markable examples of self cOmplacency
that has ever been known. His naive
eulogisms on his own productions are
almost beyond belief In writing to
his publishers of his work he says:
''Its worth and Importance are so
great that do not venture to express
1t even toward you because you could
not believe me-" and he proceeds to
quote a review (which speaks of me
with the highest praise as the greatest
philosopher Of the age, which is really
saying much less than the good man
thinks"
Sir" he said to an unoffending
stranger who watched him across a
table d'hote where he acted the part of
the local lion" habitually-"sir. you
are evidently astonished at my appe
tite. True, | eat three times as much
as you, but then 1 have three times as
much mind"
Auerbach, the German novelist, also
had great appreciation of his own
powers and work, and many stories
are told Of the obtrusive way in which
he displayed his vanity. A German
writer says of him: Every year Auer
bach visits three or four fashionable
watering places, at each of which the
following episode occurs at least thirty
times. The novelist INDUCES in small
talk with the little children of the ma
tives and invariably ends the CONVEX
sation thus: 'Knowest thou who has
been talking with thee? Behold Auer-
bach! Tell that at homer"
Smyrna times., 1913-02-12

1t is unfortunate for the farmers of
Smyrna-Clayton and vlcinities that
they did not take better advantage of
the Farmers Institute held here last
week under the auspices of the State
Board of Agriculture. Secretary
Webb never brought better talent to
Smyrna. The lecturers and instruc
tors were men of practical ability
whose experience had taught them
much, that thy might impart their
knowledge for the benefit of agricul-
ture. The meetings in Smyrna, out
side of the attendance, were a
decided success. The few who attend
ed regularly were given much food
for thought. Cne of the best speak
ers among the corps of instructors
this year was j. Harry Wolsiefer,
poultry editor of the PHILADELPHIA
Record. The latter gave several lee
lures, and, being a man of much prac
tical experience having one of the
largest and best poultry farms at
Vineland, N. j., he was piled with
many questions. with the result that
the poultry and egg business as a
side line to farming promises to take
afresh impetus in this vicinity. And
so with all the speakers, there was
much to encourage farmers to better
effort and the Institute in this re-
spect lost none of its force by the
small attendance, especially at even
ings. When our farmers become
more eager in their search for knowl-
edge, they will break away from the
old-time custom and methods of our
foreathers and seek the more practi
cal and scientific farming, which will
become the method of the
future. Maybe then these free
courses offered by the State will be |
better understood and appreciated |
