.MANN-UNDERWOOD
 ATTACKED BY BAKER
For Stand They Took on Prohibi.
 ton in Last Congress

4 II 8
 Atlantic City, July In a review of the work of the National Anti-Sa- loon league before the annual conver- ton of the organization here last night pr. F. A. Baker, national superintend- ent, attacked Representatives Mann and Underwood for the stand they took during the debate on national prohi bition, at the last session of con- gross.
 He charged that MT. Underwood had made a strained effort to deceive by misrepresentation and to furnish material for the liquor propaganda ' and said the H'liquor traf1ickers are now circulating his speech by the mill lion copies. :
 <. Dr. JeykH and Mir. Hyde.
 Of the minority house leader, Dr.. Baker said:
 MT. Mann, the alleged author of the law against the white slave traf- fic and MT. Mann, the sponsor for the liquor traffic, became the the Dr. Jekyll and MT. Hyde of the United States congress. * The liquor in- terests are already trying to reim- purse MT. Mann for his activity in their behalf by backing his candidacy for the presidency
 pr. Baker began by referring to
New Britain herald., 1915-07-07

what he termed the effort on the part of politicians to keep the liquor ques- ton from becoming an issue at the next presidential election and said:
 Admit Issue Is Paramount.
 Their reason is that if this ques- tion once gets into the campaign it will absorb everything and nothing else will receive consideration. This is but confessing that this issue is paramount in the thought of the peo- pie.
 "The way, however to keep this question from being an issue, and the all-absorbing issue in the congressioi1- al and presidential campaign is for the political leaders of both parties to get busy and see to it. that the ques- ton is submitted to the people by the next congress before. the political conventions are called. This is an easy, practical method of keeping it out of party conventions, and meth cd that will find favor with all public men who are not unduly influenced by the drink traffic. We are not asking any political party or candidate to declare for national prohibition. We do ask that the question be referred to the states for their approval or dis approval.
 ITO deny it on the ground that it is question for the states to settle locally is to assign it to-a position of less importance than is now accorded to the cattle-tick, the boil wevil, taint- ed meat. or the book worm.
 Will Not Stay Progress.
 "A movement which for a hundred years has rooted itself in the heart of the church and the conscience of the people, and which received a clear the first time it got hearing in the open forum of congress, does not lie down and die at the behest of it's enemies. To all such we wish to say you had as well try to stop the mouth of Vesucius with a wisp of straw, or turn back Niagara with a chiid's hand, as to stay the progress of this mighty movement.
 .'December 22, 1914, will always stand as a historical date in the calen- dar of the nations life. It was the day for the consideration of the Hob- son-Sheppard joint resolution on the question of national prohibition-for the two hours debate as to whether or not the rule granted by the com mittee. would be- accepted by the house. The two hours debate was utl- Hzed more for the discussion of prohi- bition and anti-prohibition than as to whether or not the rule should pre- vail. It was adopted. however, almost unanim ously by a viva voce vote. as everyone knew it would be- Then came eight hours debate on the main issue, four hours allotted to each side.

course, in fact-but as a co-worker
Canada and Australia have con-
tributed thousands of soldiers tc
the British force. Each has added
large sums to the war charity
funds. Each stands ready to do
more. up to May II, this year,
Canada had $4,000 troops in the
fighting lines These were made
up chiefly of ex-regulars. The
number, since then, has been
steadily increased 1t is said that
the total may shortly reach 100,-
600, if, indeed, it has not already
done so. Up to the middle of May.
this year, it was reported that Au-
stralia had 10000 volunteers, and
that $4,000 more were being as
sembled. New South Wales con-
tributed e1,O5O,00O to war chart
ties. The Australian troops have
borne the burden of fighting in the
Dardanelles. South Africa has
done its share, and the records of
General Botha has led man yto pre-
dict that the South African Dutch
man has a political career ahead
of him. 1t is not improbable that
the British cabinet will be enlarged.
The collaboration with Sir Robert
Bor1 en- is significant. Students of
British law declare that the English
constitution can be expended with
comparative ease to meet the ex-
traordinary demands of empire.
Furthermore, it is pointed out that
the cabinet, being mainly politi-
cal and not statutory establish
ment, can be remodeled.

The 100 per cent husband has
been discovered. If any woman
doubts that husbandry perfection
exists, let her scan catalogue of vir-
tues possessed by Edward K. Fisch-
er, a railway clerk of ST. Joseph,
Mo.
Fischer is SO industrious that iii
eight years of welded life he has
not, lost one hours work from the
office.
He is SO thrifty that before he
was married he saved 5000 on a
salary of $50 per month"; and he
has since bought home with the
savings from 500 salary.
AS for making himself useful
around the house: He always got
up at night to feed and take care
OF his four children in their in
fancy; he always undresses the
children and puts them to bed he
rises at 4 o'clock every Monday
morning and does the family wash
ing before he goes to the Office, he
works morning and evening in the
garden, and raises chickens; he
helps his wife do the dishes sever
al times week.
He requires for spending money
only rs cents every two weeks. He
gives his wife the rest, and walks
two miles to work to save carfare.
Speaking of domesticity, he has
been away from his family only
one evening year since his mar
rage.
He has sent his wife on trips to
Omaha, St. Louis, Chicago, Buffalo,
San Francisco and elsewhere.
Is he not perfect husband?
Well. that depends on the view
point. 1t happens that Fischer is
suing his wife for divorce. 1t
looks, on the face of it, as if he
spoiled her by over-indulgence.

THE BRITISH EMPIRE.

That the British empire will I'M
dergo political changes as a result
of the war has long been regarded
as certain. At recent dinner at
the United Empire club in London,
Lord Miner made the prediction
that the empire would soon have tc
eXpan~ its cabinet so as to include
+ representatives from the great de
tendencies, Canada, Australia,
South Africa and others. Shortly
before Lord Miner spoke Sir Ro-
bert Borden, prime minister of the
Dominion of Canada, had been in E.
sited to attend one of the meetings
of the British cabinet. 1t was
denied at the time that the occur
ance had any political significance.
but developments indicate. the con.
trary. Throughout England and
the colonies there is an evident de .
mand for closer imperial politi-
cal union.

Heavy farm horses help to solve the
labor problem.
Promiscrous experimental breeding
has been the bane of the horse breed
ing business.
A aforementioned draft colt, with
its early education largely completed,
is one of the most valuable finished
products of the farm.
The farm mare fills a most impor-
tant place in production.
Oats and bran in equal bulk, with
one-fourth corn added, make a good
ration for mare giving milk.
Foal shows should be made great

AS long as inferior horses are so
high in price there is no inducement
for the penurious breeder to patronize
the grade stallion.
If breeder desires to maintain size

Growing good horses to sell among
the better class of farmers is the SAT-
est branch of the business for most
farmers to practice.
Grooming instills vigor into the
horse, and the removal of dirt and the
stimulation of the skin go far toward
preventing harness sores.
Soundness should be the basis in
the selection of draft stallion
1t takes two or more crops of colts

The man who uses draft mares to
perform his farm work cannot afford
to put them in the hands of an incom-
