IF Two Be Three, What's Five?


paper is this question, emanating
SO said, from Atlanta:
IF a third of six were three
what would fourth of 20 be-"
This is said to be not a catch,
but a bona fide problem in math-
ematics, and that the answer is
71-2.
Its nota bona-fide problem,
nor yet can l say that it is of suf
ficient dignity to be called a
catch. The question is simply
absurd and there is no answer to
it. 1t is as absurd as if the ques,
ton were asked, IF a goose
were a brick house what would
a railroad be?"
A goose is not a brick house,
and a railroad has no relation to
either.
The question is asked, IF two
were three, what would five be?"
In the first place, two are not
three; in the second place, five
would be five, under any and all
circumstances. Two are two;
three are three; five are five;
they are of the prime immov-
ableS. Conditions cannot affect
them, or make them other than
they are.
If two were three, three would
be two. Then, if calculation be
made as the man makes it who
says 5 would be 7 IL, 5 would
be 5 IL as well as 7 IL. Through
absurdity, all of it.
This so-called problem was in
my arithmetic when l was a
boy; l did not know any better
then than to think it a genuine
one. Also there was this can
catenation of absurdities.
IF two be three, and four be
five, apd 6 1-2 be IL, what's the
lnlrd Of Ah. and the fourth of 27?'
GA darned loI n more rhyme
than ressnn.l --&lNsA .ansu,e4,
70 this riot of unseason / have |
forgotten; the maker of the arith-
metic had some answer which
was as absurd as the question.
We should be careful, when we
think, to be sure we think, and
not merely think we think. Two
are two; three are three; and five
are five; and all the suppositions
in the universe cannot make
them other than they are.
There IS a story of that funny
wise man, Abraham Lincoln,
which is not inapt. Some of the
big men came to him, proposing
certain actions, which involved
the consideration of a matter in
other than its true light.
But" said Lincoln, that is
not"
1--WE know it is not so, but just
call it so."
Said Lincoln, "You see that
cow of mine grazing on the
white house lawn: how many
legs has she?"
-Four answered the big men.
swell, suppose we call her
tail a leg, then how many legs
will she have?"
Five" said the big men.
"You are wrong" chuckled
Lincoln, "She would have but
four; calling her tail a leg doesn't
make it a leg"
Problem respectfully referred
back to Atlanta.)

buildings not to have wooden
floors, but scantlings may be
used on which to store cotton;
not less than six casks to each
warehouse to be kept filled with
water and to be served by two
buckets for each cask; not less
than two 5-foot doors three feet
apart at both ends of buildings,
and more doors if possible; cot
ton can be stored on end or
otherwise in discretion of ware
housemen."
1t will be seen from the above
that these requirements are at
once simple and inexpensive,
and the rate of insurance very
low. 1t is understood that this
rate applies only on the character
of building above described, and
for your information will say
that warehouse of 5000 square
feeet floor space will provide for
900 bales of cotton piled two
high. ald should cost about 81 90
per bale space or 100000.
The Wilmington Plan provides
for the establishment of these
small inexpensive warehouses at
numerous points with the double
view of more effectively keep.
ing cotton off the market and
protecting the trade of each
locality, for it must be obvious
that if the cotton is stored only
in large centers business would
be attarcted to these points at
the cost of local interests.
1t will be observed that the
6OO.bale warehouse is the unit
prescribed by the insurance com
panies, but where frame build.
ings already exist suitable fOr
storage purposes the same insur.
ance rate will prevail provided
not more than 800 bales of cot
ton are stored in one place.
The General Government ha.
done all in its power to provide
means for protecting the cottor
crop, and it is now squarely uI
to the South to avail itself of tho
means so provided. 1t is worse
than futile-it may be fatal-.fol

Johnstown, Pa, June 2.-In practi-

memory of the victims of the Johns
town flood. 1t was the twenty fifth
anniversary of the great disaster and
the graves of the dead were dec
Grated as n part of the regular Me-

The Johnstown flood was the most
disastrous to life that ever occurred In
the United States. 1t was caused by
the breaking of the dam of Conemaugt
lake. about is miles up the Conemaugt
river from Johnstown. The lake, which
had formerly been a reservoir, was two
and one-half miles long and one and q
half miles wide. It's level was about
275 feet higher than the town.
For several days before the disaster

WIPE OUT PARTY LINES.
Princal Issue in California Primaries
is GeoerarhicaI Question.

San Francisco, Cal, June 2.-Ths
principal issue before the August pri-
maries will not, ii appears, be so
much matter of political differences,
as it will be question of geography.
The southern section of the state is
protesting vigorously against the So
called northern dominance in office and
as a result of this feeling the state is
practically divided on the nominee for
governor.
This sectional feeling is so strong
that it is feared by the friends of Gov
ernor Johnson that loyalty to the
south may take from him many votes
that he might otherwise receive. Only
recently did Mayor Rose of Los An
geles and District Attorney Freder-
icSs of that county consent to enter
the contest for the gubernatorial nom
nation. OF the two candidates, both
of whom are Republicans, Rose is con-
sidered the strongest opponent of Gov
ernor Johnson, who will seek renom-
ination on the Progressive ticket.
Already there are fifteen candidates
in the field for nomination for gov
ernor. The Republicans and Demo-
Gratis have six each, and the Progress
i've Prohibition and Socialist parties
one each. AS the time for filing nom
nations papers does not close until
July 16, there will no doubt be other
names added to the list.
The political supporters Of Govern
or Johnson believe him to be the
strongest candidate in the field. 1t is
considered certain, however. that he
will have to draw a considerable Re-
publican vote i'm order to be elected.
