Wilson to Free Islands.

Washington, D. c., Sept. L.
Whatever is done by the United
States with respect to the Philippine
Islands is to be guaged by the best
interests of the the people of the
Archipelago and not by what might
be construed as selfish purposes OF
the American Government.
That is the view President Wilson
and Francis Burton Harrison, newly
appointed Governor General, take of
the question of Philippine indepen-
dence, according to information to-
day at the White House.
The President, believes that the
United States in the profoundest
sense, is the trustee of the Philip
pines and to carry out its trusteeship
wisely is the keynote of the policy of
the administration.
It was indicated at the White House
that, while no proposal for immediate
independence was being considered
now. a policy Of active preparation
for granting the independence within
few years will be pursued by the
United States.

Farmers are Best Citizens

Jefferson City, NO., Sept. 3.-The
relative influence of country and city
life upon the production of crime are
discussed in book shortly to be is
sued by Thomas Speed Mosby of this
city, on @"Causes and Curses of
Crime" Mr.. Mosby cites statistics
to prove that the majority of GRIMM
ais in proportion to population, both
in this country and in Europe, come
from the cities and not from the coun-
try districts; and he shows that the
"honest farmer" is indeed reality
and not an imaginary parsonage who
is simply referred to in political cam
paigns for the purpose of catching
the country vote. Mr.. Mosby was
formerly Pardon Attorney of Mis-
souri,, and is the author of the law
creating the Missouri State Board of
Pardons and Paroles. He believes
that the best citizenship of every ma
ton is produced cd the farm.

In Two Crowded Wooden Pullman

New Haven, Conn.,, Sept. g.
Twenty-six persons were killed and
nearly fifty injured, some Of whom
may die, in rear-end collision this
morning on the New York, New
Haven & Hartford Railroad, six miles
north of here.

miles an hour in thick fog, rushed
by danger signal, it is said, and
crashed into the rear of the second
section of the Bar Harbor Express,

nal.
The White Mountain engine cleav-
ed through the two rear Pullman
cars, both of wood, splitting them in
two, and tossing their wreckage and
three score of mangled human beings
some alive, some dead, on either
side of the track.
The third car, also of wood, and
occupied by forty boys on their way
from a summer camp at Monmouth,
Me. was lifted into the air and almost
completely off the track. The car
fell on its side crumpled up, crushed
two of the boys to death and injured
several others.
Some of the victims of the two rear
Pullmans were hurled from their
belths over fence paralleling the
track fifty feet distant; mattresses,
bedding and clothing found lodg-
ment in the telegraph wires.

A FARMERS EDITORIAL

The farmer in certain sections OF
the Middle West feels that in this
summer of uninterrupted sunshine
he has suffered the extreme penalty.
From the wash bench on the back
porch he has seen the cloudless
dawn, and from the meadow gate he
has looked across the barren pasture
at the glory of the summer sunset
day after day, stunned by the merci-
less REPETITION, bound hand and foot
on the stationary wheel of things.
The pigs out on the east forty eat
ing dollar-a-bushel corn are dropping
in value to the point of absolute un-
stability. Cattle which the suns
habitual smile has forced to the mar
ket at half their value are lowing out
in the country road where men on
horses look down at the dried up
stream and then drive the herd on in
the dust.
Corn must be cut to save the fodder
which later will probably rot at the
joints because cut before maturity,
and fruit ripens iuiceless and stunted
or falls shriveled from the stem. Ma
fure has sent seedtime but forgotten
the harvest. -======--=
Years ago people merely hoped
such years would be few. To-day
such conditions must be met and con-
quered. And the final remedy must
be the storage battery Of individual
conservation. The only way to travel
the road during halted seasons is with
the stored energy Of former years
and with modern equipment to save
endangered crops.
The natural inclination to feed all
the crop Of good year because it is
cheap must give way to the provid-
ing Of additional grain cribs. They
arc cheap insurance.
Silos viii take green corn about to
Be ruined and deliver most valuable
rations during the winter to cattle
which will bring the top price IN the
spring. A farmer needs apiow while
the season advances, but he also

about 1t. Eventually he decided to

Pegloe to boast of that Judge Slocum

Feeling that he had already conferred
wealth and distinction on the fortu-
nate Pegloe the judge thrust his fat
legs over the side of his bed and stood
erect. STOPPING he reached for his
clothes. He confidently expected to
find them on the floor, but his hand
merely swept an uncarpeted waste.
The judge was profoundly astonished.

call taking them off," he thought
hopefully. He moved uncertainty in

the light showed him his own bare ex-
tremities He reverted to his orig

went to his ear, shoulders, and MS
whole body. It seemed to come out
thick and sticky on his head, while

full nights sleep restless all night
"The sores were horrid to look at.
It lasted until he was about two and
half years old. Then we saw an &C.
zema advertisement in the paper to
use , but it did no good. Then
we used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment. We put the Cuticura Oint-

Some twenty minutes later Boggs'
came in sight. He experienced a mo-

groaned. Then at the other end of the

guished several men, Fentress and his
friends beyond question: The judge
laughed aloud. In spite or everything
he was keeping his engagement, he
was plucking his triumph ont OF the
