amendment, put into the bill by the
senate, but added the Smith-Lever-
Underwood plan as another amend
ment.
Unless the senate accepts this
change, which has the endorsement
of President Wilson, the whole cot
ton futures plan must again be con-
sidered in the joint conference com
mittee and again Ieported to both
houses for action.
The conference report will be call
ed up in the senate early today by
Chairman Simmons of the finance
committee unless there are unlocked
for developments. Several democrat
ic senators are dissatisfied with GER
tain features of the bill began de-
lnand for democratic caucus to con-
slider the conference report before it
is taken up in the senate.
The cotton futures tax dominated
the days fight in the house, although
but little time was actually given to
its consideration a.'>t -
The tariff bill itself came in for
warm praise from all the democrats.
Underwood declared in the perfect
ed form it's averages were lower than
either the house or the senate orig
inally contemplated and insisted that
business conditions in the United
States had SO carefully prepared
themselves for tariff revision that
there would he little halt to business
progress or prosperity.

"a Colombian Canal PROPOSAL

London newspaper is putting forth q specu

by British capital, may construct rival transcont

to the Colombian Pacific coast into the Gulf Of Da-

Baudo range, at a distance Of about fifteen miles,
flows south into the Pacific at Chico Cor Chaco. The
total distance from the mouth Of the Atrato to the

The Cordillera Baudo is a comparatively low eleva-

Pacific slopes are all very precipitous.
The Panama canal is about 81 miles in length, or
one fifth of the AtratoChico route, the Culebra cut

Ttv0 Declarations on Vocational Schools

In report made by a committee to the conven
ton of the Illinois Bankers association the socaed
Cooley educational bill attacked and condemned
as embodying foreign and rndemocratc" principle.
This refers to the idea of separate administration
of the proposed vocational and continuation schools
A few days ago, at the meeting of the institute
and conference for continuation schools Of Wisconsin
"A meeting attended by officers, superintendent and
teachers from all the cities of that state which main
tain vocational schools-a resolution, unanimously
adopted by standing vote, declared that:
eve find on the whole that the duplex system, or
two.board system, is advantageous to the admnisra
ton of both lines of school workgenerazed school
work and specialized school work.
At the session of the legislature the question
of vocational prevocatona training will inevitably
be brought up again. The experience of Wisconsin
has already figured in the discussion of the merits
of the Cooley bill, and will figure again. The edu-
Gators of Wisconsin not liberal undemocratic,
and fair.mnded friends of vocational training should
candidly study that experience. There is more profit
in it than in thousand generaties or preconceived
notions. @lI@&H

CORN PALACE week
BEGINS At Mitchell

Mitchell, S. D., Sept. 3o.-Today be-
gins Mitches annual corn festival, when
King Corn reigns supreme for the entire
week. Practically every section of the
state is represented, from Yankton coun-
ty on the north border, and this wide
range will give a representative idea Of
the value Of the crop situation in southt
Dakota this year.
There were some few sections Of the
state in the dry belt this year, but the
exhibits in the corn palace show that it
did no cover very wide secon. The corn
display in every country in the Palace
building indicates splendid quality, and
it is ranging from 80 to so bushels per
acre, according to the locality.
1t is the special duty and privilege Of
the corn palace exposition to set forth
each year to the outside world what has
been accomplished in an agricultural way
and the exhibits OF 1913 convey very
successful year.

The WrOn0 Side Out

Alexander Pope in this Essay Man. express
ed a theory that vice is finally embraced by those
that have grown accustomed to it, although hated at
first glimpse of its frightul mien. Much of education
is based the power OF suggestion. Pedagogues
declare that child should be permitted to
misspelled wcrd, ungrammatical sentence or
any other error likely to leave impression on the
memory. The contemplation Of the pure, the good
and the beautiful the other hand, according to
all philosophers and psychologists ennobes the soul
and expands the character
In view of this, why should there be any discus
sion the baneful effects of the immoral play the
indecent book and the sensational periodical? Some
plays books and periodicals are fashioned apparently
on the theory that the only things of human interest
concern crime vice. And despite precepts of con-
yentional morality with which their nude nastness
is draped feel that the authors are clean
Of mind or lofty Of purpose.
1t IS true as sometimes argued, that the Bible de-
scrbes sin and snnerss thai Victor Hugo deals with
vice and that JuyenaI saarizes the voluptuousness
Of Rome. But they do not make vice attractive to
any person, strong or weak Somehow there is
genuineness cleanliness of mind and purpose, that

CHICAGO Thedters and Fire Protection

After the Iroquois fire, structural changes were
made in Chicagos theaters that did away with many
possible sources of danger. They were Of perman
nature, leaving nothing to the chances of nspec

the months following the fire, of the most solemn
episodes in the history of the city, there has been

bureau has been making investigation to satisfy
himself on other points In gratifying report which
he makes concerning it he says:
"Al of the theater owners have complied strictly
with the fire ordinances. Some of them evidently are
of the opinion that they not drastic enough Tor
they have installed more fire appliances than are re-

And In Volcanic Regions Gray Hail Is
Relatively Common
In certain parts of Spain during last
winter red and black snow fell. The
phenomenon is explained as being due
to the presence in the atmosphere in
unusual quantities of certain mineral
salts. History mentions a day when
'sthe heavens rained blood In the mid
die ages such an occurrence was ac-
copied as predicting war or famine, or,
at any rate. shedding Of blood.
The presence of a micro-organism
seems always to accompany red rain
In volcanic regions gray hail is rela-
lively common. In Sicily this has been
observed very often. because the high
er layers Of the atmosphere are filed
with ashes from Mount Etna- During
the past century there have been black
rains in England twice, and on both oc-
casions the color was due to the pres
ence OF micro-organisms.
A curious fall of red snow is observed
sometimes in the Alps in spring. but
black snow is a rarity. Last spring In
the mountains that surround the valley
of Emmen snow Of a dirty grayish
black has been noticed. 1t formed a
crust of some centimeters in thickness
and extended over the white snow
which had fallen on previous days.
This strange occurrence has not been
satisfactorily explained, but it is sup
posed that the volcanic ashes from
Etna were carried by the winds and
precipitated by the dampness OF the
air.-Harper's Weekly.
