Editor Plain Talk:
In your issue of last week
you called attention to two mat
tiers about which | desire to speak
briefly.
/. You said, 1T is reported the
next legislature will investigate
the present book contracts and
let the public know all about their
making"
fell that this is an important
matter to the tax payers of the
state. There has been so much
said-the books are inferior and
cut in size, and are inferior in
material, etc. The welfare of the
state will be served by a full in
vestigation of this matter and no
pains should be spared in fully
laying before the people the whole
facts about it.
2. You said, there in consola-
ton to be found in the fact that
the next state superintendent will
not burden the teachers by re-
curing them to tell the beneficent
accomplishments of Hooper's
third administration"
This is consoling to every one
who believes in keeping politics
out of our school system. The
! way Hooper in person was
brought in for praise at the hands
of every student who wanted a
good grade was a public scandal
and nothing more. The way poll
itics has been worked in the
schools of this county is enough
TO make every lover of fairness
blush with shame. Keep the

schools out of politics. Let the
administration of Gov. Rye work
to that end and a great blot will
be removed from our state civil
ization. Our people have borne
burdens along this line now toe
long and relief should come.

The Death Of Uncle Marsh
Wilson.

On Sunday morning, November
Is, 1914. just before the dawn of
day, Marshall Wilson's spirit took
its everlasting flight and went to
God who gave it. His mortal re-
mains have gone down to the
tongueless silence of the dream
less dust. This is all we know of
the future. Uncle Marsh. as he
was affectionately called, was
seventy-two years old. In his
young manhood he was married
to Sarah Gray and to them were
born three sons, Howard, Sam
and Lem; and one daughter, Lena,
all of whom survive him except
Howard who died some four years
ago. His wife died about two
years ago. Uncle Marsh was a
member of G. A. R. Post II, of
Newport. He was our @. M. for
many years and was loyal to his
trust. He never held any politi-
cal office of trust or profit except
as deputy sheriff under D..
Sprouse, which position he faith
fully discharged. He joined the
Union army on the 18th day of
September, 1862, Co. B. End Ten
nessee Cavalry, and served as
seargent until July 6, 1865, when
his company was mustered out at
Nashville. He then came home

mot only the business and profes

also the young men, the clerks in

the children in the schools. 1t is the
duty Of the commercial organization
to so spread its propaganda of devel
opment as to obtain the efficient aid
of all these forces. Many organiza

power from their womens auxiliar

beauty their help is incalculable.
"The commercial organization has

The state supreme court here today
While the jury was out Justice Page
sent instructions that the jury must
bring I'm a verdict for the whole
amount or nothing.
Justice Page has been informed
that some of the Jurors desired to
bring in a verdict Of $4,000 repre-.
senting sos on each of the 5000 shares
involved in the transaction and an
appeal was made to the court to
learn II such verdict could be made.
The jury was out about two hours.
At the request Of Edgar T. Brack
EFT, counsel for Heinze, thirty-day
stay of execution was granted.
The sale of Mercantile National
bank stock by Gould to Heinze was
made In 1907. Heinze paid $S5O,OOo
in cash and gave notes for the re-
mainder. His defense in the suit de-
cided today was that he was de-
frauded, Heinze declaring the stock
was not worth the price Gould set.

 1t is usual to make two or three pairs of pants to one blouse and to provide a generous hem on the blouse in case of shrinkage. A belt made of two thicknesses of the material in the blouse and strengthened by machine stitching is best fastened with button and buttonhole. Wash fabrics should be shrunk before the suit is made.
 Plain fabrics make the most attrac- tive clothes for little boys On linens or other material suited to embroid- ering, small patterns appear on tho cuffs and collars.

 The Creditors, Audit and Adjust. ment Association, credit mems pro- tective organization composed of these international houses and ind- viduals, the statement announced, have engaged as counsel Frederick w. Lehman to conduct the investi- gation.
 They have prepared in other ways to fight any attempt to deny them voice in the make up of the committee" the statement says. MT. Lehman was one of the United Statets commissioners to the Mexi- can mediation conference in Niagara Falls, Ont. He was in New York today comforting with Claflin cred. itors who will be present or repre- scented at tomorrows meeting at which George c.

IN THAT happy day when the baby V boy discards dresses and proudly disdains them forever afterward he dons a distinctly masculine outfit like that pictured in tho pleasing illustra- tion given here. Laces and thin fab rics are a thing of the past with him, and he is hereafter to be clothed in substantial stuffs to fit the rough-and- tumble experiences of his boyhood which lie before him.
 All the world over mothers might follow this manner of dressing the small man, and find it in every way the most satisfactory of styles. It al easily kept clean and is smart in ap- pearance. 1t is so simple in construc- tion that the most ordinary of needle women can undertake the making.
 All the strongly-woyen cotton, lin- en and plain wooden fabrics, and espe- cially those that will stand tubbing are used for the tiny boy. Serges cheviots, velveteens (for dressy wear) i, ginghams, coarse, unbleached linens, cotton or wool corduroy pique and white linens (the last two for dress up occasions in summer time) and other desirable fabrics make it easy to choose something for him.

 The civil suit begun today against the New Haven charges that it is an unlawful monopoly in restraint of trade and asks the court to diyest the New Haven of its holdings in the Boston and Maine railroad, the Old England railroad. it's sound and out side steamship lines, it's wharyes and docks in New England and other properties which the brief says were acquired to make paramount its grasp on New England's transporta- ton. The bill is sweeping in char acter.
 The New Haven directors refused today to discuss the suit They have 20 days in which to file an answer but officials have been of the opin- ion that the road may not attempt to make prolonged fight against the government They may decide to admit the truth of the allegations set forth in the governments bill and merely try to test the legal points involved Such decision probably would expedite the case and bring it before the supreme court within comparatively short time.
