INDEPENDENCE DAY.

Political independence is an old
story to the United States. When it
was new, and glowing still with the
heat in which it was forged, OF course
our fathers exulted in it; of course
they made an annual holiday Of the
Forth OF July, and glorified it with
bands, and orators, and salutes, and
fireworks, and procession. And still
we keep their holiday much as they
did, and read their Declaration, and
sometimes hear such speeches as
those they listened to, except that our
orators nowadays deal much more
gently than theirs did with the British
tyrant.
But we do not really e1ult in inde-
pendence any more. We do not
have to, and indeed, this generation
Of us would hardly know how--so

Earl Price, of the firm Of Price &
Lutz, who has been out in Colorado
visiting for the past month, returned
home Sunday, and reports a most
glorious time. He was with his
cousin, l.. G.. Price, and family, OF
Grand Junction, most OF the time.
He was considerably surprised at
the great yield Of fruit, and to con-
vince the unbelieving he brought a
box OF cherries, gooseberries and
currants on the stalk to prove his
story. They certainly looked good
enough to eat, and were crowded on
so close the space was all taken up
with fruit. l.. G.'s orchard was val
ued at $500 per acre, some other
orchards were held at $500 per acre,
but then a crop would come near
paying for it. The section he visited
was in the irrigation district, and
crop failures were unknown. Besides
frui, the next best crop was alfalfa.
Mr.. Price was so captivated with the
fine climate and crops we suppose it
will mean the loss of another Price,
bu, that is the price we have to pay
for letting the boys 60 away from
home and see how other people live.
1t may mean the loss of another pop
ular Missouri girl, and after a few
years they will be home to see the
old folks, with family Of three to
thirteen, and may conclude to stay
with the old folks, for after all Old
Morgan is splendid place to wind
up life's affairs. Earl says the eli
mate out there is so fine a fellow, no
difference how lazy (you know EarD
will work if he has an opportunity,
and as evidence says he helped har-
vest alfalfa right along. OF course
he didn't have any proof on that.

Sometimes odd how some things
work out. The Missouri legislature
added Offices and salaries for 1.-The
Boys" of Jackson county amounting
to $4,000 per year. The present
county court of Jackson county has
begun to do business in a business
way, and so saved S25, 900 on two
road contracts, and it is thought that
by the practice of economy and busi-
ness management the entire S73, 900
may be saved, and what one part OF
"the gang" gets in graft and Doodle
the other part loses. The county
court OF Jackson county sets an ex-
ample that might be profitably follow

powerful is the nation to which It be-
longs, and so entirely secure is it
from even a shadow of compulsion
from without. From the political inde-
prudence that was already a mature
tradition when this generation began
has gradually grown a mental inde-
pendence. Our country nowadays
thinks its own thoughts and makes its
own experiments; it, indeed, gathers
all it can from human wisdom wher-
ever accessible, but it governs itself.
not defantly but easily and OF neces-
sity, by its own experience, its own
needs, its own intelligence, and its
own conscience.
And SO the Fourth Of July has come
to be modified and broadened I in
spirit. We no longer give our sole
attention on our political birthday to
the glory of our political birth, but
give most OF our thought TO what has
happened since, and much to what is
going to happen, and what we may
hope to do about it. Patriotism is
our topic on this day, and that has
come to be British drum-beat kind
Of topic on which the sun never sets.
Fer we are not a country apart.
Europe has come to live with US, and
Africa has come, aud Asia is not un-
willing to share in what we have and
our birthday concern is how to make
all our various family live together;
the light with the dark, the poor with
the rich, the new with the old, the un-
easy with the easy. Where our
Fourth of July orators once spoke of
independence, now they are likely to
speak Of solidarity; the interdepen-
dence OF our great mass Of people.
That is our great problem to-day
how we can all live together, individ-
ually free, collectively harmonious,
active and progressive. 1t is a prob
lem OF our own resources, to be
worked out at home, and ye, so
closely related to experiments with
the same problem in all other coun.
tries that patriotism to-day has come
to be sort of world religion; and ne
who would greatly serve his own state
finds himself enlisted in the service OF
all humanity.-I'he Youths Com
panion.

Being a federated club, we are
located and five members OF our club
attended the district meeting at
Nevada, in October, and three OF
members will be in attendance at
this Home Makers Conference.
Another feature Of our work which
is proving quite a popular social
event is the Husbands reception"
which is given during one of the
moonlight nights in October to the
husbands or sweethearts of all mem
bers. This reception is held at one
of the most convenient homes and
after few hours spent in varied and
amusing entertainments provided by
an entertainment committee refresh
ments, previously prepared, are
served by members.
Early in December, a talented i'm
personator was secured an entertain
ment given under the auspices of the
Country Culture Club, and we have
made arrangements for another SINH
lar entertainment to be given next
week. Living in the country as we
do, tits worth something to US to
have first class entertainment at our
door, as it we're.
As club, we sent a small con-
tribution to the General Federation
work.
Some of the members made some
special effort at Christmas time to
make presents for some poor people,
and few who can are helping lit
tie sick girl to get medical aid and
other things necessary for her COM
fort. Once month we lay aside our
home duties for little while and at
tend our club meeting. This we do
because we enjoy it, then we learn
something, and we feel that it pro-
notes sociability and kindly feeling
among neighbors. Then we 20 back
to our homes, rested and refreshed,
with new ideas and higher aspirations.
With deft hands the delayed work is
quickly done, and we feel that in
many ways our lives are brighter
and the work lighter for having at
tended the club.
We think that the women of every
country neighborhood should organ
ize some kind of club. 1t helps
solve the problem, "back to the
farm Then, too, we women in
the country, with but little leisure,
like to feel that we are banded to-
gether with the noblest and best of
Missouri's fair women, and are there
by helping put our grand Old Mis-
souri, in the front rank for all things
great and good, and that are worth
while.
So with this slogan, "More clubs
for country women in Grand Old
Missouri" thank YOU.

MAY EXPOSE TAKERS
Judge Holds Newspapers Have Riqht
 to Protect Their Readers
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1

NEW YORK, July IA newspaper has a legal right to expose a business fIrmS methods of doing business provided the motives of the publishers are "open to the belief that they are in good faith exposing those who are over-reaching or simply abusing the confidence Of the over-credulous." 7"
 This in substance is the opinion handed down today by Judge Hand in the federal court. denying a motion made by F.. A. Strout, of a farm agency, for an injunction restraining the Rural Publishing Go. from print ing threats to expose the plaintiff s business methods
 While editors are not exempt from the common motives of other men, wrote Judge Hand, they may in this case entertain a general desire to help their readers and expose such as may practice upon their credulity. That is very admirably a purpose of a newspaper. The refusal of the plaint- iffs advertising long before the con troversy became acute is a corrObora- tion of that motive"

With About Fifteen More Strikebreakcrs, Manager Mitchell Would Be Able to Install Complete Scl'- vice if Cnmolcstcd

There were few developments in the carmen's strike situation yeSter- day. Beyond the report that new force of strikebreakers was on it's way here from Los Angeles. which il i- expected will arrive here today. and the operation of cars on Wash mgton street and on the Indian School line with few people riding, nothing occurred during the day which would indicate that there was any unusual condition present.

To Keep Cool Is An Easy MatteY
 Says Dy. Ruckey

WASHINGTON, July Its easy to keep cool and not mind the heat if you know how. Here are some of ficial hints from Dr. W. C. Fucker. assistant surgeon general of the pub lie health service:
 Being cool is largely a condition of mind. Keep still. watch what -ou eat and drink. avoid meat. ventIlate your clothes as well as your home. bathe freely and avoid extreme of heat and cold in the water. Swat the fIy and don't get chilled at night.
 If you are a blonde avoid the bright lights. because they are rich in chemical ether waves. In persons that have considerable pigment in their skin-in brunette-these short. rapid. actinic waves are transformed into long and slow heat waves. These have a determined effect on the ner- vous system of those whose skin cannot reduce their potency. Blondes should avoid sunlight much as possible and when they do go out should wear colored glasses; hats with orange lining and their clothes outside should be white. to reflect the heat rays Their underwear should be colored preferably orange or blue This is to protect the skin"

STUDY RAILROAD ACCIDENTS
ASSOCIATED PRESS nIsPArcHl

WASHINGTON, July 1.-Secretary Redfield today instructed the com merce department and the bureau of standards to make a study of railroad accidents resulting from broken car wheels and aXles. He expressed an opinion that such an investigation would have a great effect on the ac- tiOn of those responsible for such accidents. The secretary dreaded to make an investigation, as the result of data gathered by the interstate commerce commission showed that during the eleven years from 1902 to 1912 the increase of about four times as many Wrecks was caused by broll- en car wheels or by broken rails and the wrecks from broken aXles were half again as numerous as those caused by broken rails.

LOS ANGELES, July 1.-The United States government will be asked to indemnify for all financial loss the eleven Korean fruit packers who were expelled from Hemet, Cal, by residents of that town last week. This an nouncement was made here today by Y. Wakabayashi. secretary of the Ja- panese Association of Southern Ca}i- fornia.

Newspaper re- ports say that Servia captured twen- ty Bulgarian officers. fifty-eight non commissioned officers and seven hun dred men during the fighting on Monday.
 A sensational story was published today that the Bulgarians at Guey- gheH treacherously killed Servian Major Vasitch this morning after he had been their guest in camp to celebrate the supposed acceptance of arbitration by both governments.

 LONDON, July The Balkan situation is extremely puzzling. The Servian government announces in almost the same breath the accep-
 
 existence of a state of war. Dispatches which arrived tonight | from Belgrade are of q most con flicting character. Some announce that fighting has ceased since Mon day; others that serious fighting con tinues and the Servians have cap tured Istrip and Krupischte with heavy losses to both sides. These reports must be regarded i with suspicion.

 The true spirit of the remarks of Judge Thomas was revealed when
 that official asked Corrigan if he
 would make a promise to refrain from further disorder and to counsel his fellow union men to do likewise if he agreed to suspend sentence. Corrigan admitted that there was strong provocation but said that he would advise all union men in the future as he had in the past to re- frain from violent acts and that he himself would do all in his power not to be found creating disturbances i i1i connection with the present strike. ] Upon that promise he was allowed to i go.
