Ever since the defeat of the Hobson .resolu-
ton last session, the officers of the Anti-Saloon
League of America have been busy in an effort
to line up sufficient votes to put that measure
through the house at this session.
They are now confident that they have the
votes. From sources close to the League it
was recently learned that it will concentrate
its efforts at the coming session wholly upon
two projects. One is the Hobson amendment
and the other is the measure TO make the Dis
trict of Columbia dry The League believes

Mr.. Fenwick states that those who
are familiar With the situation in the
Far East, feel that Japan is making
the same move in China that she made
in Korea, The steps were taken grad

hopes the Koreans will reach the point
where they can see the situation as
it really is.
Mr.. Fenwick speaks Korean fluent

lament into Korean. In the last three
years he made house to house cam

He has organized and established sew

MARK TWAIN DAY.

Many eminent critics at home; and abroad
have called Mark Twain the greatest American
writer. His claims to the title are abundant.
His prose is not as faultIess English as that of
Nathaniel Hawthorne; he built no novels of
sweeping conception. and imagination; his
short stories lacked the well knit form of Poe's
But Mark Twain surpassed all of his predeces-
sors, contemporaries and successors in portray
ing with fidelity phases of American life. He
wrote with such remarkable faithfulness that
he appears to the reader not as an observer of
events but as one of the participants. In his
treatment Of themes he is more Of an individ-
ualist than either Poe or Hawthorne, both of
whom respected and initiated the art of others
to such an extent that their work remains to
as as the polished improvement Of what others
attemptedy instead ssof pioneer. ventures into

Mark Twain il pSobably the bestowed Of
all American writers. His humor, tenderness,
lightning 4plsylof wit his flashing eloquence,
his breadth Of observation, his scorn of pre-
tense and hatred of hypocrisy; his genuine
hnmbleness a whole galaxy of admirable and
Iovable traits are evident in his writings, and
the writiig} were typical Of the man. He
wrote as ne talked, as he spoke, as he felt as
he lived His own character is revealed in the
Characters he created in that great brain, and
50 many sided was his imagination that these
Characters never lost their consistency He
made "Hnckleberry Finn preach a whole

Hawaii owes a special debt of love and re-
spect to this great American, not only because
he has painted in few phrases an imperisha-
bic picture Of these islands, but because in
many other references he showed an apprecia-
ton Of island life and longing to return. And
as q consequence Hawaii has always had a
tpecial regard for this loyal brave-hearted
American citizen.
Mark Twain Day is happy medium for
roicing Hawaii's love of Samuel L. Clemens

the provinces. They have the power
to stamp the documents that the Japa-
Enese tell them to sstaimb, and 1t has
become such a standing joke In that
country. that the governors OF the
provinces are now called tStampers'
by the Japanese. This power amounts
to as much as the third assistant dog
catcher in a country Village
Korean Downtr6ddef.
The second Japanese official in
Korea said recently : that the Japa.
nese had the foreigners where he
wanted them and stated that every
thing was fixed for those who did not
favor the Japanese policies. The Ko-
rean is downtrodden to q greater ex.
tent than ever before and when the
Japanese Improve something they Inn
prove it for the Japanese alone.
"One of the noticeable features OF
the present regime" continued Mr.,
Fenwick, Ifs that wherever there is
a railroad station you will find 10
Japanese as officials, where one would
be plenty. You not only find this in
the railroad system, but also IN all
branches of the government. The Ko-
rean is sometimes given position as
stamper or second stamper of public
documents, but that is for effect.
Japan has organized loan system
that is also an interesting thing. The
Japanese who loans money to the Ko-
rean has document like. q promis-
sorry note, and in the center OF this
document, which is filed in the rec
ords, is a phrase saying: If the Dor

that it viii be able to put both measures
through It's officers feel that the real fight
lies in the house, where the margin is close. In
the senate they claim to have more than two
thirds majority.
Just what form the two measures will take
has not been determined as yet The draft of
the resolution proposing constitutional
amendment probably will be made at a con-
ference between the Democratic leaders of the
house and the officials of the Anti-Saloon
League.
The fight, it is now declared, will be aided
greatly by political conditions and the APP
proach of another presidential campaign Adj
mi1istration leaders, who might otherwise be
against the proposed resolution, are now de-
clared to be in favor of it as means of elimin-
ating the liquor question from national politics
next year.
y 1t is also asserted that the whisky interests
will not oppose the resolution as stubbornly
as heretofore, because they believe il it passes
they can prevent the ratification, of the pro-
posed amendment by a sufficient number Of
states for many years at least.

Sweet Potatoes and Their
Food Value for Hogs

Sweet potatoes grow well in all por-
tionS of the State, and in all soils ex-
cept occasional areas that are Excess
Siyely rich in heterogeneous matter.
Sandy soils in the alluvial lands are
generally better suited to potatoes
than stiff lands. In the hill lands. the
loans and mixed sandy soils are the
best. In some localities, distinctly
clay soils produce the best potatoes.
This crop requires only moderate
amount of moisture. Plants may be
put out from early spring until the
early part of August. When planted
early in the spring, they do not pro-
duce large roots much in advance of
paintings made later. For this reason
they are especially adapted for plant
ing after spring crops have been har-
vested. Oats and cloverS harvested in
May and June may be followed by
sweet potatoes to advantage. II early
paintings are made in small areas they
will afford vines for planting in June
for extensive areas. The large vans
or some of the large white varieties
are to be preferred, The Southern
Queen produces large yields. A bush
ell Of seed potatoes put in hot bed
early in the spring will give slips
enough to plant sufficient acreage to
afford vines for two acres of planting
soon after oat harvest, or two or three
times this area for late planting,
| Planted in June and early July, they
will be ready for feeding about the
middle of October. An acre of potatoes
should feed eight to ten hogs, one
year-old, for sixty days, if one uses
some supplemental food in the form o.
rice bran. We have uniformly secured
good results from feeding hogs il
this way.
The writer considers sweet potatoes
the best root crop for hogs for fall ant
early winter grazing. The Cut-ovel
pine hill lands will likely have theil
agricultural, development as a hog
raising country from the fact tina
these soils are pre- eminenty suited tc
the production of sweet potatoes, pea
nuts and cowpeas, and they produce
| fair winter oats for winter growing

son of Mr.. Arceneaux, and Travis La

Mr.. E. C. Barnett and son Frank
were drying towards the depot from

away and stopped with the intention of
catching the horse and thereby saving
the youngsters from an uncertain fate.
The horse, not observing Mr.. BaInett's

only thing that saved it from total de
