o'clock "Wednesday night Ben Will
hams. chief counsel for the defend
ant in the case Of the state against
J. c. Lindsay, charged with killing
J. Y. Schench, editor of the Sui

upon everyone connected with tn"
trial by submitting a motion for a
change Of venue, which motion was

Cided that TO further proceed with
the trial in this county perhaps
would stir the town of sulphur and

are we to he aulazed at the rapid
strides made and progress by uru-
righteousness and combattyeness.
In our homes, which Is the cradle
Of thought. We talk too much OF
things unkind. and deal too much in
the frivolous and light, but the most
hurrful thing, Oh, the most hurtful
thing in the home life of today, is
the discussion around the fireside,
and the dinner table, Of the unpleaS-
ant occurrences and fistiye combats,
pistol duels, assassinatiOns and muir
ders. Our papers, our great daily
papers, give special space and
glowing headlines, thus giving spe-
cial advertisement and tremendous
prestige to acts of rape and seduc-
ton. This is not amazing, nor is
it hard to understand-our papers try
to meet the wants of their patrons
and readers, and it is the want OF
most readers that these things be
given special publicity. 1t is com
mon practice, and one that can only
be overcome by thoughtful, careful,
parental discipline. Things worth
while, and things that are really up
lifting in both scope thought and
matter, are passed by unnoticed, and
the criminal side of life is unfurled
in great ado and much comment in
the average home circle In con-
nection with this, there are often
time pictures brilliantly gilded of
marine battles and bloody conflicts
at the point of bayonet and sword
at the hands of the militia. Our
country will never be what it ought
to be, our children will never be
atuned as they ought to be atuned
till. these things give way to things
Of pleasantness and love. How much
better it would be, Oh, how r,uoh
better il would be fC- the present
generation, how much better for The
generations that will follow in the
wake of this generation, if the tur-
tie dove, the olive leaf, and the
child in its evening prayer fill con-
spicuous places over fire and around

and integral parts receives thought
full consideration at the minds OF
thoughtful men and women. 1t Is q
day when our public school system Is
so closely interviewer with the home
system until the one becomes u
part and a counterpart of the other.
The minds of children are easily i'm
pressed, but the mind of the aver
age child tends with much more
oasiness to the rough and uncouth,
than it does to the cultured and
refined. This is not to be wondered
at for it is nature. For years, and
years, and then some years, our
public schools have been run very
much as our eleemosynary instltu-
tions. Children have been sent to
school, but there was not that vital
fellowship, and close personal CO.
operation between parent and teach
er. that was so much needed, in or
der that the schools might meet,
and fulfill their well ordained pur-
pose. 1t is not necessary, nor Is
my purpose in this article to go
back over history and bring up the
practices of the past, but, it is my
purpose, and | have very keen de-
sire to express the very keen ap-
probation of the efforts of the
American women to get in closer
touch with the school system and
and greatly taxed teachers and edu-
ucational institutions. This need has
long been felt, and now that the
thoughtful American mothers are

happier conditions all along the lines.
But there is still a want-still a
great felt want-ani that in the city
of Ardmore-a want that is far
reaching, and of tremendous need
the want of more mothers to assist
in the workings of the MOTHERS
CLUB.
AS above said the mind of the
average child is easily impressed
for and towards the wrong. Now
this is not to be wondered at, nor

of blood and carnage be delegated
to the museums of disasters or the
trash pile and torch.
AS above referred to, the pressing
need is for cooperation between the
home and the school, and as the
mothers of this city have inaugural
ed what they choose to denominate
a Mothers Club, the purpose OF
which is to bring about complete
understanding and glorious unity
between the home and the school, ii
should, it appears to us, have the
unqualified endorsement of every cit
izen of the city, and the unbroken
attendance of the patrons of the
various schools.

The Mothers Club of the Fourth
Ward are, we are told, going to ell
tertain their teachers and friends in
the auditorium of the Fourth Ward
school building this evening, and if
the work done, and the efforts made
by these noble sacrificing women
was known, there would be a re-
sponse in attendance beyond the
capacity of the Fourth Ward school

May their efforts be crowned with
success, may their number grow
larger-may the blessings of God be
showered upon them.

Judge J. w. Lusk of St. Paul was
as an ideal candidate for
mayor of that city at the next spring
election. In a communication to the
Pioneer Press Judge Lusk declines
to permit the use of his name as a
candidate, and among other things
says:
No good business man would hire
a person past seventy years of age
with no experience whatever in
municipal government to be an
active manager and head of corpo-
ration of the size of St. Paul, for you
must not forget that the only claim
made for commission form of gov
eminent is that it will be more bust
ness-like. 1t is physically impossible
for me, at my age, with no practical
experience in that line, to serve the
city in that capacity as the city re-
quires and deserves.

unassuming gentleman that he is.

WATERLOGGED BONDS.

At the banquet of the Investment
Bankers Association of America at
Chicago on the evening of the 3lst
ult., James J.. Hill delivered one of
his characteristic talks. He said
the country is waterlogged with
bonds, and that if the true story of
all municipal Indebtedness, now con-
cealed behind various temporary
makeshifts, so as to maintain an
ostensible credit and help push out
the annual crop of new or refunding
bonds could be told, it would shock
the country and give pause even to
the advocates of unlimited expendi-
ture, for public purposes. "
Mr.. Hill must have had in mind
his own state of Minnesota when he
made this reference to Certificates
of Indebtedness:
Criticism, or even a proper under
standing of the situation, calls for
discrimination between the classes
into which bonds are divided. First
are those of public bodies, the gov
eminent, states, counties, cities and
sometimes villages. Here frightful
imitation is going on. An old
fashioned public aversion to debt
still holds the nation, and to some
extent, the state in check; though
many of the latter evade it by mar
keting certifcates.-@rof indebtedness
which differ from bonds only in the
shorter time they have to run and
the inferior weight of the sanction
behind them.
Occasionally it is necessary to
issue bonds for public improvements,
but ''pay as you go'' is a good policy
for individuals as well as~..municipal-
titles to pursue. We should leave
something to posterity besides a
legacy of bonded indebtedness.

So many people threw rocks at Bill
Bryan that he has announced his in
tention of keeping off the lecture
platform in 1914. This goes to show
that Bills backbone is not con-

that of Theodore I. Had Theodore
been secretary of state and decided
to 60 on the lecture circuit old Nick
himself could not have dissuaded
him from pursuing this purpose.

Il FOOLISH PROTEST.

G. M. King and w. R. Mackenzie,
president and secretary of the
Northern Minnesota Development
association, have filed a written pro-
test with the secretary of the
interior at Washington against
patenting any more swamp lands to
the state of Minnesota, claiming
that the grant of swamp lands by the
United States to the state has not
been diverted to the purpose for
which it was originally intended
the reclamation and improvement of
the lands in question.
We fail to see what good purpose
can be served by the filing of the
protest. What has northern Mime
sofa to gain by delaying the patent
ing of these lands to the state for
an Indefinite period? Absolutely
nothing. On the contrary the state
has much to lOse
The Union has always advocated

with an excuse for further delay in
patenting land that; rightfully be-
