ands of cheering spectators lining tle
banks of the Lake Washington cana
locks, the United States snag steamer
SwinOmish, with 100 government, city

Latest advices from Washington
state that this case has been regular
ly placed on the docket as No. 1913
of the October term, 1915. This
class of cases involving the construc-
ton of criminal statutes of state,
usually take precedence of all ex-
cept United States cases. But there
are large number of United States
cases ahead of this, it was learned
from the attorneys recently, and it
is difficult to say when the matter
will be heard.
a motion to advance this case, it's
learned, will doubtless be made be-
fore long, but when it will be set will
depend on the condition of the cal
endar, together with the temper of
the court. However, all advance
ments in this class if cases must be
made by consent and stipulation of
counsel for both the plaintiff in error
and the defendant in error.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 16.-The
department of agriculture has been
able to secure a quantity of sudan
grass, Dakota alfalfa seed, and an
improved variety of field peas, a
portion of which has been allotted
to Congressman Addison T. Smith
for distribution. A package will be
sent on application to Mr.. Smith if
the request is received before the
first of March, as long as the sup
ply lasts. The department is anx-
ious to place the seed in the hands
of farmers who will be sufficiently
interested to give them careful at
tention, and who will report to the
department the results obtained with
their tests. In arranging for this
distribution a most promising and
new variety of crops has been given
first consideration.

the name Of George G. Brooks, OF

many craftsmanship records be-

As to which set of residents in

those who did not, we will not
speculate, lacking knowledge. But
this can be said without much lik-
lihood of contradiction, that the
group that habitually pays its bills
promptly was not sorry to have
the issue arise in just the form it
has come up. The honest, thrifty,

pays for what he gets and also for
what the man gets whose accounts
finally have to be charged off.
The extent to which this unfair
condition of affairs exists in rural
and suburban communities of the
country is not always realized by
the urban dweller and merchant.

A TOWN PAID ITS BILLS
New Jersey Coal Dealers Adver.
tisement Reformed q Com
munity.

A New Jersey dealer in coal and
lumber recently startled his vii
lage and country neighbors and
customers by bold use of printers
ink. In the local weekly, on the
first page in large type, he made
known the amount of Indebtedness
which his firm was carrying in an
effort to meet the trading de-
mands of customers and at the
same time not ruffle their feelings
or challenge their ethics of trade.
Accompanying the quite explicit
statistics of debt was a statement
intimating that the dealer thought
he was not getting quite the
Square deal" from people who
were presuming on his leniency
and who were assuming that he
had unlimited credit and social
good will.
AS soon as the issue Of honor
and fair play became a community
one, the bills began to be paid.
When A realized that B and G and
D, and indeed NJ, not to mention
T, had all agreed with him in pre-
Stunning that X, the dealer, could
and would "carry the account a
little longer without inconven.
ience," why A saw what he, in
combination with the others, had
really been doing.
If he did not pay Immediately
he at least named time when he
would pay. He admitted his care
lessness and thoughtlessness and
his indifference to the rights of
the middleman. He conceded the
power of the press to do what
dunning letters had not done. In
short, he learned a lesson, as did
his neighbors. And so, while the
$685. debt account diminished,
the community good will account
grew. Town life was toned up by
