DORPAT THRESHOLD

SETTING OF THE TOWN is PIC
TURESQUE; HAS ANCIENT
UNIVERSITY.

Washington, d. c., Nov. q Dor
pat is the threshold to Holy Russia in
| the north,'' says a war primer issued
today by the National Geographic So
ciety. The character of the town was
for long time thoroughly German
but determined efforts at justification
have worked considerable change in
tn eancient city, which has been re-
named Yurief, and it now marks the
outpost line of Great Russia toward
the Baltic Provinces. 1t is situated
on the River Embach, $40 miles north
east of Riga. Yurief is famed for its
university, which has remained among
the best in the Tsar's government.
THE setting of the town is most
picturesque. 1t stands upon the billy
banks of its river, which aOws from
Lake Woertz-Jaerw to Lake Piepus, a
great inland sea 25 miles to the east
of Yurief. The principal buildings are
grouped around castle and cathedral
hills, though nothing remains of the
buildings which defined the eminences
but the ruins Of the old cathedral,
which was burned in 1898. This part
of the town lies south of the river.
"Yuriefs renowned university was
founded by the headlong warrior, Gus
tavus Adolphus, in 1852, the year of
his death. Attached to it are an OBJ
servatOry, an anatomical theatre, a
museum of natural history, and one of
the finest botanical gardens in Europe,
whose collection contains more than
10000 plants. Its library, 100000 vol
umes, is housed in a restored part of
the old cathedral The university re-
manned thoroughly German in spirit
and sentiment until the year 1895,
when it was thoroughly russifed. A

A UNIQUE CAMPAIGNER.

Jackson, Miss, Nov. % When it
comes to uniqueness in campaigning
you sometimes have to hand it to the
ladies. AS an example of the unique
method of attracting attention and
reminders those who have votes that
would help put one in some position
of trust, witness that of Mrs. Margaret
Kinkead Thompson, of Yazoo City,
who seeks the office of state librarian.
Mrs Thompson is a sister of Mrs.
Dent. president of the Mississippi
Women's Suffrage Association. She
has written a poem, in which is ex-
pertly combined a joyous wish for
happiness on Thanksgiving and the
hope that she Wal be chosen librarian
on the first ballot.
The poems of Mrs. Thompson are
being carried by Uncle Sam to every
nook and corner of the state, for every
man who was elected to the legislature
will surely receive one.
The experiment of campaigning with
original poetry is thus braved by Mrs.
Thompson. The poem is as follows:
The day of giving thanks is here,
The harvest year is at an end;
And as I breathe my thanks sincere,
A share goes to you, my friend.
thank you for what you have done,
For me, and all you yet may do,

If by efforts slight or great,
On first ballot you'll help elect
Me next librarian of our state.

interview by Mr.. Bryan, November 5.

Il have read the Presidents speech
at New York with sorrow and con-
Germ. He is doing what he believes
to be his duty and SO long as man
follows his conscience, and judgment,
We can not criticise his motives, but
we may be compelled to dissent from
his conclusions. feel it my duty to dis
sent, and as he has given his views
with clearness and emphasis those
who differ from him are under like
obligation to express themselves with
equal clearness. He says that his
position is different from that of the
private individual in that the individ-
ual is free to speak his own thoughts
and risk his own opinion. This SEN
tence is a little obscure. Insofar as
he expresses his own opinion he does
not differ from the private citizen, ex-
cept that he speaks under a sense OF
official responsibility, but where a ma
TONS fate is involved in a policy
every private citizen who loves his
country and tries to serve it, is con
scious of responsibility The Presi
dent will not assume that he is more
deeply interested in the welfare of his
country than the millions who elected
him to be for the time being their
spokesman. And if, as he evidently
believes, he is giving voice to the
opinion of his countrymen, he is, OF
course, anxious TO have them as frank
with him as he has been with them
how otherwise can he know whether
he represents or misrepresents their
views?
"He has announced a policy which
has never before been adopted in this
country. and never endorsed by any
party in the country. And he has no
way of knowing, until he hears from
the people, whether he has correctly
interpreted the will of the public His
appeal IS not TO any party put as ne
says to men of all shades of opinion.
He asks for tbs hearty support of the
country, meaning Of course, that he
wants the support, provided the peo-
pie favor the policy which he has out
lined He could not, of course, ask
them to support policy which they
did not endorse, especially if they
considered the policy dangerous to
the country.
From my, Jew of the subject, the
plan which he proposes is not only
departure from our traditions but a
revival of our national policy. 1t is
not only a menace to our peace and
own citizens and rights s

safety but a challenge to the spirit of
Christianity which teaches us to in
fiuence others by example rather than
by exciting fear.
THE president says that we should
prepare not for aggression but for
defense That is the ground upon
which all preparation for war is made.
What nation has ever prepared for
war on the theory that it was pre-
pairing for aggression.
1T is only fair to assume that the
European rulers who are involved in
the present war thought that they
were making elaborate preparations
for defense.
1T is a false philosophy and, being
false, it inevitably leads into Difficult
ties The spirit that makes the in
dividual carry a revolver-and who
ever carries a revolver except for de
fense?- leads him not only to use it
on slight provocation but to use
language which provokes trouble.
Speak softly but carry big stick is
one of the delusive maXims employed
by those who put their faith in force.
There are two answers to it-first, the
man who speaks softly has not the
disposition to carry a club, and if
man with soft voice is persuaded to
carry club his voice changes as soon
as he begins to rely upon the club.
"If there is any truth in our re-
ligion, a nation must win respect not
by carrying arms but by an upright,
honorable course that invites conf
dence and insures good will. This
nation has won its position in the
world without resOrting to the habit
Of toting a pistol or carrying a club.
Why reverse our policy at this time?
The President himself admits that
there is no reason for change. He
says THE county is not threatened
friendly relation with all the world.
Her resources are well known and her
self-respect capacity to care for her
phatic, he adds, there is no fear
among u.s.
IF we're not threatened by any ma
ton. if our relations with all nations
are friendly, if everybody knows that
we're able to defend ourselves if nee
essary, and if there is no fear among
us, why is this time chosen to revo-
lutionize our national theories and to
exchange our policy Tor the policy of
Europe? Why abandon the hope that
we have so long entertained Of setting
an example to Europe? Why encour-
age the nations of Europe in their
fatal folly by initiating them? Why i'm

The fifty cases, more or less, of evap-
grated apples were seized in Gulfport
by United States Deputy Marshal
Money. The federal authorities, in
their allegations, claim that Hartman

in lieu of apples, they being adulter-
ated in water, packed so as to reduce
and lower and injuriously affect the
quality and strength of the apples. The
case will be heard at the February

Are We Better?

The simple things, the plain virtues,
the characteristics that make the most
humble character blossom like a rose
in the simplest hOme-these are the
things that make woman success
full wife and mother.
Unselfishness-for one thing.
You never saw vain girl turn into
a good mother in your life-you never
knew selfish woman who was any
thing but a selfish wife
You don't have to send a girl away
from home to a high-priced teacher to
show her how to be gentle, how to be
loving and how to be generous.
I wonder if it wouldn't be a good
idea for some of us who are so ad-
vanced to stand still just a minute
and look backward-for a change.
Later-Day Ideas.
Are we so much better than our
mothers, after alive self-conscious,
self-willed, self-central modern wom-
en-?
Are we even much happier?
And do we make those who love
us more content?
We ought to-we talk such a lot
about tive certainly ought to.
But, do We-really?
Look around you in your own circle
of acquaintance and see.
Honestly now-are we so very much
better, so very much wiser or so very
much more contented than they?
Sometimes. in spite of all the con-
crosses and conventions find myself
wondering about it.

Encampment Record.

Here's how, Brother Little, and may your arm be long and
strong and your pen everlasting. We need all the help that you can
give, as well as the Almighty God, that we may bring this great val
ley into it's own. 1t has been a long, hard struggle, meeting with adj
versities of every sort in it's development. The mining litigation and
wild eating of by gone years has done it's damage sure and swiftly
to our great mining industry, the irrigation possibilities have been
set on and hammered in many ways, but probably by the most damn
able thing in the line of deliberate lying about the waters OF this
valley. Our mineral springs has been lying undeveloped on the &C.
count of being controlled by outside capital that cares naught about
this locality. Last, but not least, Jim Hill don't own the U. z,
hence no help from railroad circles. May your arm be long and
strong and your pen everlasting that we may work together for the
good of this great valley, and again we wish you we'll. All the pos
sible aid that you may need that is in our power just call and we
will answer.
