Richard Buchanan of Fisher, Mimi.

week visiting with H. B. Haney. The
change in climate and surroundings
WIRE quite astonishing to him and
seemed almost impossible that condi-
tons could be so reversed in practical
ly the same latitude.

long-handled shovel, club and a
number of rocks his snakeship was put

overtime trying to figure out how such
small reptile was able to make such a
big noise.

Last week Mr.. Groom presented to
the high school the pennant won by the
high school basket ball team last
season. The Kennewick Athletic Asso-
citation determined to have a basket
ball tournament in which four teams
were entered, viz: Kennewick Clothing
Company, The Toggery, Fruit & Pro-
duce Company and the High School.
The Florsheim Shoe company was re-
quested to offer pennant as prize to
the champion team. Several good
games were played, in which the High
School five showed the stuff they were
made of, by carrying off the honors.
The pennant is red with the letters K.
A. A. CHAMPIONS in white.
The teacher and pupils of the Domes-
tic Art Department will be at home to
the ladies of Kennewick and vicinity

thirty to thirty, in their room on
the first floor of the high school build
ing.
Mr.. Twitmire, Inspector of the
schools of the state of Washington,
visited Kennewick the first of this
week. He seemed pleased with the
improvements of the schools and hoped
to return next year to see greater adj
vancement. In addressing the high
school students he warned them not to
make the mistake of so many young
people, to believe that there are more
privileges of education in the larger
cities. There the large classes do not
permit individual instruction, while in
school the size of Kennewick's, a
pupil may obtain daily help from the
teachers. Three sentences stand out
clearly in his talk: "All boy or girl
knows" ''It is not so much what you
study in school as how you study"
Ninety per cent of the education of
youth today comes from his reading.
English, he says, is the most important
subject taught in school at the present
time. Latin is the drill and foundation
for the study of English. A lad, asked
what languages were taught in school
replied, 1.-The dead and wounded Ian
guages." We should be careful, in our
everyday speech, not to abuse the
greatest language in the world. The
purpose of English as study is not
only TO teach one to read f1uently but
to be able to express oneself in good,
everyday English. When one is read
ing he should be able to Gull the un-
desirable and worthless material from
the good and worthy thoughts; and not
read the newspapers from cover to
cover, column after column, as one old
farmer did, marking the places where
he left off when he was called to some
work. In closing Mr.. Twitmore quoted
a poem from Sanskrit language, en-
titled 1.-The Salutation of the Dawn"
and whose keynote was, Look Well
to this Day.

CAMP HUNT IS
Continued from Page One)

There was a glow of happiness upon the faces of each recipient of medal from the hands of the governor Col. Tuthin, upon whom the first badge was pinned attempted to make a response but his voice failed him and his throat seemed full.
 Last evening the Prescott chamber of commerce rendered to the commis stoned officers of the regiment what proved to be the happiest social event of the week. President w. A. Drake presided. Upon the right of Mir. Drake sat Governor Hunt and upon his left Col. A. M. Tuthill, commander of the regiment. Mayor Timmerhoff came next and Lieutenant La Garde was second to the left.
 After the course dinner had been dis posed of there were brief speeches from more than a dozen of those assembled, a song Brown October Ale, by Sec retary Malcolm Fraser and story telling by two or three others. It was nearly midnight before the gathering broke up. Governor Hunt, Colonel Tuthil1 and Adjutant General Harris took oc casion to tell the people of Prescott just what they considered to be at the bot tom of the failure of the Mile High City to have a company of the National Guard. Each of the speakers referred to the promises that had been made that crack company would be organ iZed and each in the words of the gov ernor indicated that they were from Missouri"

New England made within the hour? New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad has been guilty of wanton waste; that it paid in one instance, in the purchase of the Rhode Island troll leys. $13,OO0,O0O for nothing; that it paid in another instance, in the West chester road case. $12,OOO,OOO more than the roads value.
 Who will pay for the waste? Who will make good this sort of thing in railroad speculation? Why, the people make it good, and with them these railway trainmen who threaten to strike.
 "I say to the gentlemen that mem- Der of congress, with his $7500 a year, is apt to get rather far away from the real problems of life. These men who threaten to strike are regarded by many as we'll paid. The trainmen are superior in skill and in intellect. They do regard their pay as adequate. And when the matter of their bread and butter came up before them-and this ought to challenge the thought of every man within the sound of my voice the vote for the strike was almost un- animOus.
 T say to you as fellow legislators that I believe that the day of paltering and of postponement is passing in this country. I believe the day of compro- mise is almost gone. I believe that this body and the executive branch of this government have got to get down to business and reach into the heart of this thing and correct the Fundamental wrongs and find the real remedy, and when that is done, there will be preci- ous little use for this act"

practical business man and an eX- perienced politician, with consider able following in eastern Maine.
 It will be the progressive party's first appearance in a congress election in Maine and that is what the demo- crats count upon to win. They be- lieve that as the vote was close when the republicans were united it will be easy for them to beat the republicans divided.
 The choice of the republicans for the seat in congress is John A. Peters, an Ellsworth lawyer, who was speaker of the Maine house last winter. The count of the promary returns is expected to show the nomination of William R. Pattangall as the democratic candidate. MT. Pattangall is mayor of Waterville, a former attorney general of the state a lawyer and editor, member of sev- eral legislature and generally recog- nized as one of the ablest leaders of the democratic party in Maine.

The Daily Missoulian. [volume] (Missoula, Mont.) 1904-1961, 1913-01-06
IN THE MONTANA SENATE

The Missoulians Helena correspondence which yesterday
morning provided some interesting ante-session facts for
Sunday consideration, called attention to a proposition to
take from the senate membership the appointment of com
mittees and to restore this function to the lieutenant gov
ernor. The Missouian S correspondent does not consider
it likely that such a plan will meet with success, even it it
receives the support of the democrats who represent re-
dictionary sentiment. We believe the correspondent is cor
rect-certainly, we hope he is.
The lieutenant governor has a record as a committee
manner. Two wears ago, Mr. Mcdowell was speaker of
the house. In the appointment of the house committees,
he did more to defeat progressive legislation and fair play
than did any other single man in the whole assembly. he
committees of the last house, as Mr.. mcdowell named then
were able-to hold up a lot of legislation which would have
been for the good Of the state. And they did it-they did
it like the puppets Of corporate control which they we're.
So excellent a corporation service record as this, makes
if natural that the Invisible Government would like to see
this years senate committees appointed by the lieutenant
governor. 1t would be fine business tor the Invisible Gov
eminent if this years senate committees could be named 0y
this same man. 1t would save a good deal OF worry, all
Mr.. Mcdowell is a pleasant gentleman; he is endowed
with unusual ability; he is a handsome presiding officer
But he has a record OF orporation-serVlce IN the leglsla-
ture which renders it exceedingly dangerous to place IN MS
hands the selection of the committees Of the senate. He
was successful in thwarting much desirable legislation TWO
years ago; he might repeat the performance this year were
he given the opportunity. =,
We do not believe all of the democrats in the senate will
consent to this proposition, even if it reaches the floor OF
the senate. Not all of the republicans would give it their
support. The progressives would be against it, !,
This would make it's fate uncertain, even II 1t is proposed
formally. The alignment in the senate is close this year.
On a strict party count, there are sixteen democrats, thircc
teen republicans and two progressives. lhere are some OF
the listed democrats who are progressive IN thel1 Sentlmehts
and inclinations; there are some OF the republicans VINO
hold state above party. The progressiVes are definitely
pledged to defined principles.
This alignment makes the senate situation very interest
ing. There is every prospect that the upper branch OF the
eois1ature. this wear, will not be under the control OF the
Invisible Government. It will be a departure from recent
precedent, but it will be a good thing tor the state.
