LITTLE PROGRESS
ON TRUST PROGRAM
Democratic Leaders Not Cooperating
in Legislative Work.

Washington, July 13.-Senate Dem
ocratic leaders appeared to be work
ing at cross purposes with regard to
trust legislation. The judiciary COM
mitteee, which has charge of the
Clayton omnibus trust bill, has de
clined the suggestion of the interstate
commerce committee to sit jointly
and consider all trust questions now
pending before the two committees.
In debate today, Senator Reed of
Missouri, strongly urged that the two
committees get together and work out
a joint plan. He and Senator Hoke
Smith favored the idea but other MEM
bers of the judiciary committee re-
fused to consider it. The Missouri
senator today continued his attack
on the unfair competition" section of
the trade commission bill. He said it
was becoming a serious problem how
to properly deal with officers and di-
rectors Of corporations who violate
the antitrust law.
Zone way to deal with them,' said
Senator Nelson, els not to appoint
them to responsible positions under

READING ADVERTISEMENTS

II used to be an old time joke That
come Deople were so fond OF news
papers that they even read the ad-
vertisements.
That might have been humorous
remark years ago. At that period
some merchants would run an adver-
tisement for whole year unchang-
ed. Clothing dealers would start IN
advertising January first with
notice of overcoats for sale, and
would still keep it running in July.
Today people read the advertising
as a matter of business. The women
read it just as farmer reads his
price current or banker reads the
financial news. They thereby get
ideas as to how they can save on
household OR personal expenses.
Probably a majority of the women
tuH6 first to the advertising OF their
K4vorite merchants, and then read the
news later. -
The men also read the advertising
carefully. Even if they have no bust
ness enterprises Of their own, they
are interested in the advertising as
a reflection of the business life tof the
town.
Hence it is perhaps unnecessary to
suggest to the readers of this news
paper that it's advertising columns are
worthy Of the most careful attention.
They are. giving that attention to
these notices now.
Still it is worth while to say that
there is no time when advertising is
worth such careful attention as in
midsummer. All kinds of merchants
have the proposition before them OF
cleaning out their stocks before cool
weather comes on. That takes good
deal of publicity The goods won't
move of themselves. The public must
be told about them and in some de-
tail.
The story of what is happening in
the stores will be found in the ad-
vertising columns of this newspaper.
Most of the newspaper readers are
seeing it, and it will repay their
closest scrutiny

THE SEASON FOR PLCNlCS.

PiCnics are simple and primitive
form of enjoyment. But these are
elaborate and costly times. 1t might
be thought therefore that picnics
would go Out of style, in an age that
likes lot of show and display.
Such, however. does not seem to be
the case. The use of the automobile
seems to give a certain social sane
ton to informal out of doors eating
Motorists may be able to borrow
money for the car, but hotel bills cal
for cash, and lot of it, Automobile
owners have to economize, and very
frequently the saving takes the form
of the picnic lunch.
To the men it sometimes seems as
if the greater the Inconvenience of q
spot, the farther the luncheon baskets
have to be toted, the more it appeals
to the women of the party. To the
latter, 10 tramp is 100 arduous to -;
at spots of scenic romance. To then
the plainest fare is eaten with SHARP
relish under the stimulus of out dOol
beauty.

5. Then went out to him Jerusa-

We cleaned up the Panama zone be-
cause the mosquito there meant
death. The pest-ridNen territory was
made as clean as the polar region in
winter. If an American wishes tc
escape the pest he must go where
ten years ago it was most abundant
where nature is most kindly to it
where every condition favors it's pros
perity. In that region there are nc
mosquitoes.
So why have the mosquito? Why
submit to it's control Of such a natural
resource as a summer night? Why
be chased indoors and out of the
beauty of the night? Why be domi-
mated, terrorized, and sacrificed? Why
itch and scratch and burn?
Why raise the MOSQUITO as pet anC
be helpless before it as a pest? What
is the mosquito, anyway, that it Should
be master OF men and controller OF
his hours?
If folk can be rid of it in Panama
we can be rid of it here.

PRESS OPINIONS
WHY THE MOSQUITO!
Chicago Tribune.)


Our liking for the mosquito is a
strange foible. We not only toler-
ate it. We raise it. We provide
hatcheries. With care or careless
ness we leave large or small pools of
stagnant water for the birth, COM
fort and sustenance of the wrigglers
A few pieces of tile or gallon of
kerosene would drain the pool or kill
the wrigglers. Both tile and oil are
easy to be had. We do not use them.
The conclusion is irresistible. We
must like the mosquito. That's a
curious foible.
Ia return the mosquito depriveS us
of the greatest charm of summer. 1t
denies the garden to us in the sweet
of the evening. When the sun comes
down hot and commanding on lawn
and flower bed, on young green corn
and ripening melon, the mosquito will
give you leave to be out. But when
Venus shows in the evening crimson,
when the night breeze comes through
the aisles of the woods, when tho
Great Bear walks overhead, and
Arcturus is incandescent in mid sky,
the mosquito chases you, his indulg-
ent prey, indoors and puts you under
a hot roof.
The summer day has wrought the
perfection of the summer night. You
may have the heat of the day. but
not the beauty of the night, unless
your skin be rhinocerous thick and
your blood virus proof Silent or
singing, the autocrat of the summer
evening arises out of the tangled
green, out of the rose bush. out OF
the viburnum, out of the bgacken, up
from beside the milkweed aand the
clover, by the wild sunflower and
the aster, and asserts it's dominance
1t comes from the close cropped
lawn and the poppy beds, from the
dahlia and the gladiolus, out OF the
mignonette and alyssum, and makes
| evident it's feudal supremacy. 1t is
the night rider, the poison pest, the
pirate of lawn and woods.

Former President Taft May
Be Disappointed Because
of Rule.
WAS TAFT APPOINTEE
Jurist Who Died mt Atlantic City Sun
day, Entered Army When Boy
Was Fourth Confederate on
Bench.

Washington, July 13-Discusslon
as to whom President Wilson will ap-
point to fill the vacancy in the su-
preme court caused by the ideath yes
terday Of Associate Justice Lurton,
continued here today. In selecting
Justice Iurtons successor the presl-
dent will make his first appointment
to the supreme court bench.
In addition to former President
Tat those mentioned include Attorn-
ey General McReynolds, Secretaries
Lane and Garrison, Senator Shields
of Tennessee, former justice Of the
supreme court of that state, Fred
erick w. Lehman, former SOLICITOR
general, and one of the American
delegates to the peace conference at
Niagara Falls, and John w. Davis OF
West Virginia, the present solicitor
general of the United States.
Mr.. Taft is known to have had an
ambition to round out his career as
Justice on the highest court of the
land. When it was reported last
winter that Justice Lurton was about
to retire it was suggested that Mr..
Taft might be offered for the place,
but it was stated at the white house
| that his name had not been mention
ed.
Before Justice Lurton's death the
supreme court was made up Of six
| republicans and three Democrats. by
his death the Dmocratic representa-
| ton on the bench is reduced to two,
| who are Chief Justice White and AS
sociate Justice Lamar. 1t is thought
the president will name a Democrat
| for the vacancy. There has been an
unwritten rule in the senate which
must confirm the nomination that
| the minority representation shall not
| fall below three.

Associate Justice Horace Harmon
Lurton, who died suddenly at Allan

years, was born at Newport, Ky. He

tured but was paroled by President
Lincoln upon the appeal of Mrs.

land university in 1867, and began
prac ticng law in Tennessee.
After serving four years as Tell
nessee division chancellor, Judge
Lurton returned to the practice OF
law in 1873 and eight years later was
elected judge OF the Tennessee su-
preme court of which he became
chief justice in 1893. The came year
President Cleveland appointed him
judge of the Sixth judicial circuit OF
the United States.
AS a federal jurist Judge Lurton
was closely associated VIII former
President Taft, then circuit judge,
and when the vacancy on the su-
preme court occurred in 1909 Presi-
dent Taft appointed him to the post.
