May Suaoest His Successor.

f'ecause Of he warm personal
friendship existing between President
Taft and Judge GoG it is possible that
the semtorelect may visit Washing

person. also suggesting a successor.
If he arrives, the West Virginia Re-
publicans win give the new senator
reception
The G. A. r commanders, both
Republicans and Democrats, in Wash
ington were yesterday approving The
selection of Judge Golf as senator
from West Virginia They admit that
he is probably the last soldier of the
civil war to achieve senatorial hon
ors. There is a special interest in
his war record, as he went in very
young and won his way rapidly 20 q
majority His military career, was
checked. however, by capture, and ne
was a prisoner in Libby for several
months When finally exchanged he
hastened to Washington and detailed
to the War Department officials and
members of Congress the starvation
methods OF Libby prison. President
Lincoln and his War Secretary. Ed
win NJ Stanton, sent for young Maj.
Goff and he gave them both the story
OF distress, which has since become
a part of civil war history.
GoH's story Impressed Lincoln.
President Lincoln was much i'm
pressed. and insisted that Stanton
should find some way to exact from
the foe a more humane treatment of
captured soldiers, or else reprisals
would be in order by the Union side
Secretary Stanton was no less i'm
pressed than Lincoln, perhaps, but
he did not at first suggest a remedy,
and took pains to remark that war
had conditions all else than pleasant
The Golf portrayal had weight finally
with both Lincoln and Stanton, ana
they took steps at least for exchaug-
ing prisoners, and lessening the death
rate in the southern prison camps
like Libby.
Judge Golf completed his legal edu-
cation in New York city and was in
politics two years later, when, at the
age of "a, he went to the West Nir
eina Legislature , lie was but little
over 25 years old when appointed
United States attorney for West Viz
ginia by President Johnson and had
three reappointments before going to
the Hayes cabinet as Secretary of
the Navy. He went back to the Unit
ed States attorney job under Garfield,
and a year later came to Congress.
The new senator has had a good
deal of official life, but he has had his
share of hard knocks. He was twice
defeated for governor and twice bea-
ten for congress in his younger days,
with a general freezing out when he
had reason to expect senatorial re.
ward years ago. Four years ago,
when the Republicans Of West Nir-
ginia had two candidates for COVER
nor. and the prospect of losing the
state, Judge Golf was begged TO leave
the bench and save the party as the
cOmprOmise candidate for governor
The appeal was from every section of
the state, but he declined, and indi-
Gated that he was through with poll
tics,

items Of Interest From the Expert

The history of agriculture is Of
interest 10 all citizens OF the state
Much Of that history is to be found
in the diaries. records and account
books Of the pioneers. in order TO
preserve this information, Prof O.
NJ. Johnson, of the department Of

See that the garden and farm tools
are in good repair and sharpened.
Repair the sash and frames for
hot beds. They may be stirred up

Now is a good time to fix up the

handy for use. Perhaps few
should be made or purchased.
Bring rhubarb roots into the eel

dirt. Water thoroughly and you will
soon have plenty Of young tender

Some cabbage and lettuce growers
purchase their seed q year in ad-

to give a chance for harvesting some
of the plants before the main lot is

The lowest priced seeds are often
the most expensive in the long run.

Eduoation and Farmers.
A complete agricultural survey Of
Thompson county, New York, showed
that the owners of farms who had
had an opportunity to attend dis
trict school only made an average
?.Ynual income from their labor of
s3lS.O0: those who had the adyant-
ages Of a high school training, made
$4,000; and the farmers who had
received more than a high school
education, made an avtrage labor in
come of SS47.0O. The average
farmer receives no more for his la
bor than does the average hired man,
according to this report. About one
third of the farmers received less
than the hired man; another one
third received about the same; while
the remainder received much more,
From this report, we can readily
see that any one who expects to be-
come a farmer should first receive
all the educational training possible
for him tn secure. The college OF
agriculture of West Virginia uniyer'
sfty has courses of study to suit
every man and boy and thus will in
future years be a great aid in ad-
vnncing the income Of the West Vir-
gina farmers,

WELCOME ADDRESS
Delivered by Mrs. n. o. Boatwright
Before Woman's Missionary
Meeting Last Week.

| When the Woman's District Mission
airy Convention met in this city last
week Mrs. H. o. Boatwright deliv'
cred the welcome address, and spoke
as follows:
Madame President-My views as to
the doctrine OF evolution have recent
ly been revised and am now led to
believe that, after all, perhaps there
may be some truth in the doctrine
This is what brought about the re
versal OF opinion: When baby my
picture was taken, as all babies are
and at intervals of about FIVE years
thereafter others were taken. In look
ing over these pictures recently and
noting the changes that occurred In
my looks and apparel from time to
time, am led to believe in the doc
trine OF evolution; and when | view
myself on this occasion attempting to
make a speech | am confirmed in my
views.
| am reminded just at this point OF
an incident that occurred in Baylor
College In 1879, when located at Inde-
pendence. Two of the senior class,
one quiet, meek and timid girl, the
daughter of Baptist preacher, and
the other a bouyant spirit, so differ.
emit yet congenial, roommates, class
mates, were the subjects Of a class
poem on the graduation occasion.
The quiet girl was named Violet" so
modest did she seem, OF whom it was
predicted that she would marry and
be sheltered from life's storm by some
hero and whose home she would make
happy. The other. so dashing and so
fair, was named the gorgeous Lilly"
indicative Of purity and nobility, shed
ding light and cheer to those around
her.
Little then did / dream that this
prophecy would come so near fulfill
ment, and that the doctrine Of evolu-
ton would be so verified in the lives
of the two girls who are with you to-
day, one of whom, the Lilly" Mrs.
liz. G. Townsend, is our honored guest
whom we all love.
Woman is just beginning to come
into her own the letters that have
so long bound her are being thrown
off and the world is beginning to see
her worth and to recognize that while
home is one of her spheres, where
her worth is displayed, it is by no
means her only sphere Of activity and
usefulness. In other words, the fact
is looming up large that she can do
something else than rock the cradle.
Recently in several States the fran
chise has been granted woman, and
even in our own beloved State prop
erty rights have been vouchsafed her,

STARS "A, DIXIE 3

The baseball game yesterday after
noon between picked team of former
Bryan Stars and the Dixie team re-
suited in a walkover for the Stars.
Only seven innings were played, and
the score at that time was "a to 8.
The kids" played gamely, but were
completely outclassed. The battery for
the Stars was Griffin and Hamilton;
for the Dixies, Braswell and Johnson.

enabling her to manage her feparate
estate as she deems best These con-
ditions have been brought about as a
result of woman's work in the moral
and religious realms.
1t used to be considered crime
for a woman to speak in religious
meeting, and while do not advocate
women speaking in public. / do be-
lieve that woman has an important
part in the coming of the kingdom OF
our Lord, and that she can do much
and is doing much to hasten its COM
ing.
This meeting this morning has that
object in view; 1t has in mind the fur
therance OF Christian education and
missionary endeavor, and the individ-
uals engaged in 1t are worthy OF the
highest praise. for indeed it was upon
woman the great Master bestowed
the highest praise when He said, "She
hath done what she could"
Madame President, 1t affords me
pleasure unfeigned to welcome these
distinguished visitors to our city, to
our homes, and to our hearts. Ladies.
your coming to Bryan attests your
wisdom, for Bryan is proverbially the
best city in Texas of twenty-five thou
sand inhabitants and under. In fact,
there are only two classes of people
/ in Texas-those who live in Bryan
and those who want to live here.
With her splendid and progressive cit
izenship; with her splendid system Of
public schools; with her splendid
training schools for boys and girls;
with the Agricultural and Mechanical
College at her door, and the building
of the new railroad to the Brazos
bottom, penetrating the richest agri-
cultural country in the world, Bryan's
commercial supremacy is assured.
While the material side is being
stressed 1t by no means signifies that
we are neglecting the spiritual side
OF life. This fact is emphasized by
the magnificent temples Of worship
we have erected to the worship Of
God, and further evidenced by the
results of the protracted meetings
through which we have just passed,
resulting in the ingathering of many
into the fold.
Visiting ladies, we rejoice that you
are with US this morning and trust
that our coming together will be mu-
tually helpful and that a new impetus
will be given to the Masters work.
Everything is open to you; all things
are yours, and If you do not see what
you want. call for it.
