A writer in a scientific journal pre-
diets that gasoline will be supplanted
by the use of alcohol denatured with
10 per cent of benzol. This will be
safer, more pleasant to use and sweet
er in exhaust than the gasoline of to-
day. Though the calorihc value Of
this mixture is only six-tenths that Of
petrol or gasoline, the higher com
preston possible and increased ex-
plosive range will make it the ideal
motor spirit. Bsnsol itself is being
seriously considered as substitute.
1t is IL per cent more powerful IN
running than gasoline, and English
coke oven plants yield 100000 gal
Ions as by-product. The CONNER
cial product containing. as it does,
$50 grains Of sulphur per gallon needs
careful publication for motor use.

THE BLACK popGER.

| A citizen of Brooklyn, N. Y, writes
to the New York Times, protesting
against the common country fair
and summer resort feature known
as the African Dodger. AS all know
this consists CT pitching baseballs at
the woolly head of negro extended
though curtain.
The Times correspondent calls 1T
a "barbarous practice that would not
be tolerated in other civilized coun-
tries"
Yet authorities on anthropology
state that the negro has very heavy
and massive Uranium, constituting a
bony arch of great resisting power.
One scientist refers to the common
habit of negroes Of both sexes in but
ting like rams This, he contends, in
dicates that a negro's head bones
have defensive strength unknown
in the Caucasian race.
The popular impression is that the
Dodger does not And this occupation
distressing. He seems cheerful about
It, With a mirthful derision he pro-
trudes his flaming tongue. He CHATS
his would be tormenters for inexpert
delivery. Perhaps 1t is much less
painful to him than hoeing corn would
be. He gets hit comparatively few
times. The distance is alwaps de-
ceptive, and most of the balls drop
low.
So long established diversion is
not easily done away Every popular
assemblage contains great number
of men who play or have played
baseball. The desire to establish or
renew reputation for accurate aim
and swift delivery.
Plotting that shiny black pate looks
easy, often the presence of women
friends stimulates mans desire to
display his powers. The thing APP
peals to the American feeling Tor
humor and for competition.
Until evidence is presented show
ing fractured skulls or brain concus-
sion, the Black Dodger seems likely
to continue a characteristic county
fair feature. Perhaps the first to take
issue with such protests as have been
mentioned would be the Dodger him
self. He might regret to lose daily
wage that comes with less effort
than through manual labor.

LIVESTOCK ON NATIONAL FOR.
EST RANGES.

A marked increase in the quantity
of livestock grazed on national forest
ranges during the past fiscal year lis
reported by the forest service. Nine
and half million domestic animals
have been occupied during the sum-
mer In converting one Of the by-pro-
ducts of the forests into meat, hides,
and wool. In addition, there were in
round numbers three hundred thou
sand calves and colts and FIVE mil
Hon lambs and kids exempt from per
nit and therefore not enumerated.
According to the figures gathered
the amount of stock grazed under per
nit during the year is over four per
cent greater than for the previous
year, while the number of pernlittees
using the forests for pasturage pur
poses was increased from 26,501 to
1855. The total receipts by the gov.
eminent from grazing fees Tor the
twelve months ending June 30, 1913,
where s1,o07, 739, and the portion OF
this applied to schools and roads in
the states in which the national for.
ests are situated Is about $352,70S.
Grazing is second only to lumber.
ing as principal use of the national
forests. Practically all Of the national
forests used extensively for grazing
purposes are within the eleven states
extending east from the Pacific coast
known az the far western group
These states contain, according to
latest reports, 8,546,oo0 cattle, $780,.
600 horses and mules, and 28,366,00O
sheep. The national forests support
in these states II per cent of the
total number of cattle grazed, 3.48 pei
cent of horses and mules, and 275
per cent Of sheep.
/ 1t is estimated that the annual pro
! duct of these animals is 100000 head
4 Of beef cattle of various ages and
grades and 100000 head of lambs
and mutton sheep.
Since the average net meat weight
eff beef animal is 515 pounds, of a
lamb 81 pounds, and OF sheen 81
pounds, the stock grazed on nationa
forests in the eleven far-westerr
states produce annually about Is;
million pounds of beef and 312 mil
lion pounds OF mutton. In addition
it is said the wool grown totals So,

The Late Daniel r. Miller.

George F. Smith in Keosauqua Dem.
ocrat: For forty years or more tho
politics OF Lee county were dominat-
ed almost absolutely by the Miller
family father and sons--the elder
Miller not only having been q mem
her OF congress but member of the
general assembly as well, as was
also the older brother, Harry c. Mil
Ter. However, D. 3. Jr., not only new
er sought, but would not accept polit-
ical preferment. We have personal
knowledge of his being solicited to be
a candidate for congress not longer
ago than last year, but he declined
even to consider It.
Mr.. Miller was first and last a
lawyer. He was however, man Of
perfectly honest and Just impulses
something not always foA..i In mem
bers of that profession He scorned
to take case to aid a man to escape
when he believed to be guilty or In
civil cases to advocate the cause OF
"a party whom he believed to be In
the wrong.
Being splendidly endowed by inner
itance both mentally and physically,
D. F. Miller was great lawyer, he
having for many years held the fore
most place at the Keokuk bar and in
his profession In this part OF the
state. Personally he was one of the
most genial, unselflsh and lovable
Of men The writer had known him
during the whole period of his profess
sional life, and in his death expert.

Republicans who split off into the

from an editorial in the Star-Herald:
Every Aroostoock Republican

and feels that the victory OF the Re-
publican candidate was a righteous

I'VE, up here In Maine, were most

II Any Church Could Rule.

Cedar Rapids Republican: One dis
tracted paper says that Rome has
whipped the whole national
government at Washington" We
trust that this does not include the
stiff-necked Presbyterian who sits in
the Presidents chair. But the paper
that makes the charge seems to think
that Secretary Tumulty. who Is a
Catholic is stronger than the Presi-
dent and that he is there by decree
OF the pope in Rome, instead of by
his merits as stenographer, to begin
with, and his discretion as an Official.
But they said the same thing about
Mr.. Taft, when he was President, how
he was under Roman influences, and
how he was going to poll the Catho-
lie votes, until the votes were counted,
and then every one saw that Catho-
lies voted very much as Presbyterians,
just as they pleased. We have an
idea that Catholics will continue to
vote as they please, as the rest Of us
do. 1t will be better for them, for
their church. and for their country,
for the worst thing that can befall
any nation is solidif1ed church vote
of any kind. we care not whether 1t
would be Catholic or Methodist
We would as soon trust one church
as another when 1t comes to secular
government. The one thing to. pray
for In this. or any country, is that no
one church will ever be numerically
strong enough to control at the ballot
boxes. We would hate to be COM
PEELED to live in country governed
by Methodists, or by Presbyterians, or
by Catholics, or even by mild-souled
Christian Scientists. Whenever and
wherever we have had a government
controlled by a sect or great church
even we have had tyranny and mis-
rule through undue interfercnces with
the liberties and even the consciences
OF the people. One has to study no
farther than Geneva under the rule OF
Calvin or the Scotch nation under the
dictation of the Covenanters, to say
nothing of Rome under rule Of the
states Of the church.
The churches themselves also are
best entirely separated from the secu-
lar power, the men OF all the churches
voting in the ballot boxes not their
church beliefs, but their beliefs on
purely secular issues, determined by
thinking along secular rather than
church lines.
