LOCATIONS FOR PYTAIAN HOME
Looked Over by Secretary Of Home Board
[. Y. G. Morris.

Mr.. L. " G.. Morris. Secretary of the
Home Board knights of Pythias and
Representative of the Grand Lodge Of the
United States paid Belington visit Feb
rurary 2lst and was met by committee
from the local lodge and was shown the
different sites that Belington has TO offer
for the location OF the Pythian Home
Mr.. Morris seemed well pleased with
Belington as possible site. He visited
the lodge in their new room in the Rohr
bough Building After making quite a
talk on matters of relating to the Home
and its location and about the interest
that is being taken in the matter over the
state put the boys thru a course OF sprouts
that was very much needed and did g
lodge great deal Of good.
Now is an opportunity for the Beling-
ton people to show whether they really
are awakeiand always on the lookout for
the city's best interests or are they going
to let this Home, thing OF beauty
and lasting benfit to the town and county
be located somewhere else just because
other towns had something on us in the
way OF members and citizens that had
real red blood in them and went after
everything with determination that If
they did not land the desired object they
need never be ashamed to say they
were in the tfalso rans.r Belington has
every thing that nature could provide and
if she can stir up some wish bones and
get them to allow back bones at least a
temporary chance che can land the
Pythan Home. But this does not mean
to stand around commenting on this and
letting the other fellow do the hust ing.
Everything counts Let every resident
of Barbour County take a hold. The
lodge will welcome with welcome arms,
any suggestions, any help, any advice on
this subject, and invites everybody to
join them in this fight for something that
not only means an immediate expendi-
ture Of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
$500 900 O0) but auannual expenditure
in this town and County of at least $l5,-
100000 Wake up, take a hand in this
and with "HEALTH' the slogan Beling-
ton will win.

sc SAILORS DROWN

HAMBURG, March 5.--During maneu-
vers in the darkness in the North Sea
early today the German torpedo boat
destroyer 17S was run down and sunk
by the German cruiser Yorck with
heavy loss Of life.
In the confusing and darkness attend
ing the disaster numerous conflicting
reports as to the number OF victims were
circulated. 1t was first announced by the
commander of the fleet that SO men and
officers were drowed, but later an official
statement from the marine ministry re-
duced this number to 81 and finally this
afternoon to 66.
Lieutenant Pies, commander of the
S 17S, was among the victims, Another
OF the victims was lieutenant. Accord
ing to official reports Is men and two
officers were saved.
The Yorck Immediately dashed signals
that terrible accident had happened
and turned her search light upon the
damaged destroyer, which was all but
submerged. Light sprang up all over
the fleet and wireless messages were sent
to Cuxhayen giving notice of the disaster.
Boats were lowerered from the nearby
warships, but before they could reach
the scene OF the disaster the riven tor
pedo boat had disappeared and only bits
Of floating wreckage remained.

TO INCREASE FARMERs'
INCOMES.

So long as the farmer leaves CO
operative activities, with their
profit sharing, to the city man Of
business, SO long will the foun-
dations Of wealth be undermined
and the comforts of enlighten-
ment be impossible in the coun-
try communities. In every re-
spect this nation has to learn the
lessons Of efficiency In produc-
ton and distribution and Of
avoidance Of waste and destruc-
ton. We must develop and i'm
prove instead of exhausting our
resources. 1t Is entirely possible
by improvements In production,
in the avoidance Of waste and in
business methods on the part Of
the farmer to give him an in
creased income from his farm,
while at the same time reduc-
ing to the consumer the price of
the articles raised on the farm

HEALTH HINT FOR TODAY.
TO obviate BreathIessness.

DR.. Manquat of Paris has a
method Of obyiating the breath
lessness that ensues from rapid
or uphill walking. 1t consists
In maintaining the rhythm and
speed rate Of respiration within
physiological limits, by utilizing
the natural powers of control
over the respiratory and expira-
tory muscles. The rhythm and
physiological speed rate maintain
the circulation in proper condi-
ton. The respiration can be
rhythmically adjusted to the pace
by prolonging the expiration
over about twice as many PAGES
as the inspiration and making
not more than from eighteen to
twenty complete respiratory cy-
cles in a minute. This treatment
may also prove useful in heart
and lung troubles, but 1t should
only be taken under medical adj
vice.

Will Ask Not to Lease to Aliens

The Grain Growers League, at the
Idaho Washington convention OF the
farmers Union in Spokane last week,
unanimously adopted resolution ask
ing the Secretary Of the Interior to use
care in leasing Indian lands on the
Yakima reservation to aliens. The
resolution follows: Whereas many
Of the tracts opened to cultivation by
the government on the Yakima reser-
walton have been leased to aliens, and
these are being farmed by aliens with
alien labor, coming in direct competi-
ton with the white race, and by lowering
standards of living this competition is
making it impossible for white men to
farm proftably these lands; therefore,
be it resolved, that the Farmers Union
asks the Secretary of the Interior not
to exceed the bare treaty rights in
leasing these lands to aliens"

frye & Co. Fighting Beef Trust

The so-called beef trust of the east
received an indirect blow during the
past week in the courts of King coun-
ty where Frye & Co., the beef packers
of Seattle who are fighting the trust,
won suit brought against them by a
California railroad. In the spring OF
1909 Frye & Co. shipped large num-
Der of sheep from lower California.
After paying the freight, the railroad
came along and put in additional
claim for freight charges, declaring
that their original charge was not cor
rect. Frye & Co. refused to pay this
second claim and the railroad sued for
the balance. The court decided the
case in favor of Frye & Co. The de-
PENDANTS brought out at the trial that
the railroad had two separate and dis
tinct freight tariffs; the one was made
in the interest Of the big beef packers
of the east and was much lower than
that made to other packers. The
court held that this discriminating
rate was not legal and gave judgment
for Frye & Co.

Seeks to Change the Order of Things

When George Washington was
President, and it didn't matter very
much Just how or when things were
done, all went well with the date Of
Inauguration, the time for the meeting
of Congress, and the holding Of cleo
tions on the first Tuesday after the
first Monday Of November. But now
nearly hundred million people have
a finger in some part of the scheme OF
things, and there is crying need for
many changes; nevertheless our young
government is so @edded to its own
customs that it is almost impossible to
break away from the old-time order.
Senator Works OF California, evidently
feeling encouraged by the fact that
the constitution has been amended
twice within the past few weeks, has
tackled the problem of terms and
elections" Through two bills he has
introduced he would change election
day from November to August, and
provide for annual sessions OF Congress
from the first Monday in October to
the first Monday in June. Congress
men would assume Office in October,
Immediately after election, and the
President and vice president would
take Office in November.

CLAW Husband Law" Now in Effect

County officials throughout the
state are preparing their Jail and other
detention facilities in anticipation of
the working of the Lazy Husband
Law" which becomes effective this
week. 1t is expected that this will
increase the number Of prisoners
greatly throughout the state. In many
counties, especially those containing
the larger cities, the prosecuting at
torneys have been bombarded with
inquiries of wives concerning how to
make complaints under the law. I'm
der the terms of this law the husband
or father who fails to support his wife
or children, or who deserts them in a
destitute condition, is guilty of mis-
demeanor and may be sentenced to
work on public undertakings, roads or
in other ways. The pay he gets, $3.50
per day, goes to the family OF the
prisoner.

1t is expected that before the end
of the week the United States Senate
committee on territories will have rec
commended bill for government con-
struction OF an Alaskan railroad from
tidewater to the interior. In line with
and following this action it is prob
able that Senator Chamberlain bill

general belief is that if these bills pass
Congress there will Immediately begin
the greatest rush for Alaska that the
