Senator Borah Gives Out a
Statement of Fact in Re-
gard to Cabin and Paint
Creek Troubles.
NO ATTENTION PAID
TO STATUTE BOOKS
Strikers Hailed Before a Mill
tary Tribunal and Sent to
Prison in Violation of
All Laws.

WASHINGTON, Jan, A severe ar.
rsignment of authorities who admins
tered martial law in West Virginia from
September. 1912, TO June, 1913, when
the Cabin Greek and Paint Creek coal
mine strike troubles were in progress,
is contained in A subcommittee report
made public tonight by Senator Borah,
a member of the senate committee that
investigated the West Virginia dis
turbances.
The report was given out as the
" "statement of fact, prepared by Sen
ator Borah as the member of the senate
committee charged with preparing that
section of the report bearing on court
martial trials, and alleged violations of
law by the military courts.
Senator Borah s statement holds that
tho military authorities, acting under
the direction of the governor. super
seded all constitutional courts in West
Virginia, imposed sentences not author
lied by standing laws, aud took over
all the duties of the civil courts of the
district and that at the time such mar
tial law was being enforced, there was
no evidence that the civil courts had
been intimidated or that they would
have failed TO perform their duties
faithfully.

The finn q Jacobs & CO.. OF Clin-

editor OF tho Wall street journal
with tho intention o. correcting some
Of the wrong Impressions formed in
the north OF southern conditions. as
a result OF the manner in which the
buy-a- bale movement was played up
in northern cities. This Clinton firm
hands out the truth in pointed style
when it says that Tor the last ten
pears the South has been immensely
paid for raising cotton, and there has
been a large accumulation Of money,
putting the farmers into excellent po-
sition, SO that a large percentage Of
them can hold their crops through
till next season. if they desire to do
so. A very large percentage Of them
will not sell at l-2 cents pound
nor even at 10 cents pound. Not a
few OF them will refuse to sell their
crops at - cents pound" Ltera-
turc OF this sort is calculated to re-
lieye the people up north Of the i'm
preston that the people OF the south

Acreage Reduction Law.

| Editor Of The Advertiser:
AS there Is being so much said and
written about the present condition,
hope you will give me space to express
my views.
For the last twenty-five years the
| people and the agricultural papers of
| the south have been advocating rota-
! ton and divcrsiiication of crops. We
have had alliances" and Farmers
Unions" and all other kinds Of organ
izations in the way OF pledges which
have never yet amounted to much
Who're a few would comply with the
pledge. there would be several break
| aud try to make up the Shortage Of
the few. :.
Now what l want to get at is this:
In our last called session OF our gen
cral assembly our law makers passed
, Il Law just the very thing that our
, farmers have been trying to get these
many years, and Just as soon as We get
what we have been working for all
this time, here comes certain fac
ton or element that wants this law
abolished.
/ | haven't Il doubt but that some Of
our newly elected legislators have al
ready had requests from many to work
III the next session to repeal this law.
Now as for myself, | am in favor Of
the new law. and will be against any
man or body of men who oppose it.
Our government. for the last five
years has had its investigations trying
to find the cause Of high living.
Now to my mind there would have
been no need Of this if the South had
been raising her food supplies.
Take for instance the large land
owner; you find him to large extent
against this new law. Why is this? Is
it because he really thinks it against
the average farmer, or Is it because
there is not SO much labor In growing
grain az In growing cotton? To some
extent the latter is true. He wants his
tenants to plant the crop that will re-
quire as nearly as possible all his time
to cultivate.
His excuse is that he can't afford
to run the hand on the one-third acre
age system. IF every farmer would
have his tenants SOW three acres OF
wheat on good land we'll prepared
, give him his garden and see that he
planted plenty Of corn. the people OF
this country would live after all

"lS 1t the Duty of tho Teacher

tBy Miss Clara Woods, Gray

tion, is it the duty Of the teacher to
discover defects in sight, hearing, and
the likc?" it is not our intention to
view il from Il standpoint OF the chlds
being able TO do better work in school;
10 enjoy the pleasures of life more
fully: nor from Il standpoint Of his
being Il more useful citizen, We pre-
sumo that everyone admits that the
duty Of seeing after these things falls
upon someone or some institution. The
discussion. then, can easily be mar
rowcd down TO this duty being either
for the parents Of the children. or for
the teacher in the school. TO our
mind. The duty should be both that o.
the parents and the teacher. But il
this short discussion we shall deal on
ly With why such is the duty of the
teacher.
In general statements. there tarc
ihr,r principal reasons why teacher
ought to be deeply Interested in the
physical defects Of his or her pupils.
First the teacher has a better op-
porunity for detecting such defects;
second. many parents underestimate
the seriousness Of these defects: and
third. it is the fundamental duty OF
The schoo ltodo for its pupils whatcv-
or will give to them healthful, hap

In the first place, then, let us see
No. u
for viewing such defects. During the
day from nine until three, for period
OF : or 9 months. the child is placed
under tho teachers care. During this
time the teacher has good chance,
while in classes, to detect the child's
bearing, speech, and eye-sight. The
teacher comes in much closer relation
for such a purpose than do many par
ents. When the boy or girl goes home
in the afternoon he finds his mother
doing her household work, shopping, or
visiting; his father. On his farm, In
his store. or at his profession. The
child IS left to do his studying, un-
noticed perhaps, by his parents. Very
seldom, therefore, is there a real op-
portunity, in many cases, for parents
10 discover the defects that arc very
acute in their children. Thus. be-
