LET'S KEEP IN THE LEAD

LET'S KEEP IN THE LEAD
Cottonwood has a reputation
al! over the country as being one
of the richest rural communities
in the entire Inland Empire and
the principal reasons for this are
that our farm holdings are still
reasonably small and our farmers
are following diversified farming
to a larger extent than their
neighbors. Lack of transporta-
ton for many years is largely re-
sponsible for this condition as 1t |
forced the farmers to feed their
grain to cattle and hogs and
drive the animals to market, and
this proved so advantageous that
even after the railroad came
most of our farmers stuck to the
old method and continued to
] raise large numbers of cattle and
hogs instead of going grain
crazy, as have many in other
sections. AS a result Cotton
wood, and the country tributary
to this town, ships more hogs
] annually than any other produc-
ing station west of the Rocky
| Mountains, besides shipping
| large numbers of cattle, hund
| reds of cars of grain and large
| quantities of cream every year.
| These various articles of produce
Z are turned off at all times of the

 Sun Yat-sen is known in China as Sun Wen, and Huang Hsing was known in China during the revolu- tionary days as Gnu Ming Tang. The latter was a members of the eXecu- tive committee of the Revolutionary society and later became generalissi- mo of the revolutionary army at Wu Chang. Upon the formation of Sun Yat-sen's first cabinet at Ranking, he was made minister of war. When Yuan Shi-kai became president. he made Huang Hsing resident general at Ranking in command of the south ern army, but be gradually undermin- cd the generals military authority. and in 1913 it was Huang Hsing who organized the second rebellion. Fie took command of the rebels at Nan king, but fled to Japan upon hearing Of the approach of the northen troops.

 "Huang Hsing Is reported to be nl the United States, supposedly in con- ference with number of enemies Of the Chinese government. Last year he was expelled from Sun Yat-sen's party, but the movement to restore q; monarchical government in China is reported to have brought the two revolutionary leaders together, and Hsing is believed here to be co-oper- ating with Sun Yat-sen. who is in Japan"

SCHOOL QUESTION
 PROBLEM IN LODE
Hopelessly Inadequate Facilities
 Found in Town By Germans

Correspondence of The Associated Press)
 Lodz, Poland, Dec. 26-By no means the least of the problems which the Germans have to solve in Lodz is the school question. On their occupation of the city last December, the Germans found hopelessly inade- quate school facilities, and, a short age of teachers so great that it was out of the question to supply entire 1y the deficiency from Germany.
 The city has youthful population of some so.O00 and facilities for only 25,000 pupils. Some 10000 of these atterl the Polish folk or common schools, where they are instructed by men who themselves have nothing more than high school education and practically no pedagogical train ing. The remaining 5000 attend private schools and come. of course from the peter classes of the popu- lation.
 Only 45O Teachers.
 Tn all the Polish folk schools. which are terribly overcrowded, there are in all but 45O underpaid, illy- prepared teachers. Aside from the number of children who attend the
 
 uncounted hundreds whose only edu- Cational opportunities lie in the 300 odd Jewish "cheders"
 In company with the educational chief of the city. an Associated Press correspondent recently made a tour through Lodz. specially bent on see- ing the 'rhcders' and their hordes of pupils There was revealed a con- dition of things almost unbelievable. The first school visited was typical of all tho rest. It was in the second story of a building overlook ing stable. and was large enough to accommodate 30 children at out side. Sixty-seven youngsters, how ever. were damned into the little apartment, and sat in each others laps to avoid standing.
 Dirt Covers Floor.
 Dirt scraps of bread and pieces of vegetables remnants of bygone lunches by the children-covered the floor. Such of the clothing as was not ragged was monstrously dirty.
 The teacher was a middle-aged Jew, whose wife teaches on alternate days a class of. girls in her bed room un- der conditions that appear no more favorable than in the boys school. Each child pays 60 kopeks (S0 cents) month for the instruction he re- ceives consisting principally of smatterins of religion.
 The school inspector had never visited this particular "cheder'' be- fore, but from long experience he lighted cigarette before entering the room to combat the sickening odor Of the overcrowded place. The teach CT. used to visits from Russian off, cials, began at once to protest that he had no money with which to pav tribute, and showed obvious relief when he was assured that no money was desired.
 Surprised at Order.
 His expression changed to wonder, when he was sternly ordered to re-

 Murdered the Good.
 Ut will be remembered that after the revolution of Hsin Hai, Kuatung, Human, Kiangsi, Anhua, Kiangsu and Fukien were all under the influence of the rebels, who practiced violence under the name of the republic. They devoted their whole efforts to ex- torting money from the gentry and merchants, and murdered the good and innocent ones They gave a false definition to the doctrine and wife
 with others. They called right wrong.
 and vice versa. They tried to de- celve the people. In short their ob-
 ject was to destroy the sense of mcr-
 ality. customs and practices, and con-
 Verted this celestial country into q
 nest of bandits and violent characters.
 When the government tried to check their influences they at once
 made an alliance of the six provinces
 to defy the central authorities. When
 generals were sent from the central
 government for their suppression they
 issued enormous quantities of cur
 rency notes With the object of col
 lectlng all the silver and gold in the
 market and then they fled abroad to
 foreign countries. Consequently all
 the ringleaders escaped with large fortunes, leaving their unfortunate followers to suffer for their misdeeds. It has been the principle, even of or dinary robbers, to help their asso- ciates and protect their common in terests at the risk of their own lives. But even this principle is disregard ed among the rebel-chiefs who heart l lessly pursue their selfish ends at the l expense of their accomplices Hence 1 they are worse than ordinary robbers Later on they allied themselves with White Wolf, molesting several pro vinces, which were devastated by l ravishing the women, incendiarism
 and footing. Their cruel actions

 ''The Chinese merchants abroad in l foreign lands have been industrious

 them of their hard-earned money in
 order to squander the same as they 1 like. Sometimes a few tufei (band-
