Vandalism That
Is Not ExCuSable

Carson City, New. Sept. 20. 1910.
Editor Carson City Daily Appeal:
For two weeks past, St. Peters par
ish has maintained on Carson stree.
a bulletin board holding a poster Civ
ing scientific facts regarding the cf-
iects Of drinking alcoholic liquors
This board was placed in front OF the
store of one Of our merchants, with
his consent. This was merely mat
ter Of courtesy on his part, as the
board is owned Dy ST. Peters parish.
and the posters are paid for out OF
the parish funds. The posters are
published by the Scientific Temper
ance Federation OF Boston. Mass. on
the basis of the researches Of prom.
inent scientists.
On Monday night. September 18th
or carly Tuesday morning, Septem-
Der 10Th. the glass of this bulletin
board was smashed, the poster was
removed and another poster was sub
stituted apparently in the interest OF
dealers in malt liquors. it asks the
question: "Why should beer * #
be excluded, when patent medicines
* containing alcohol
are alloWed"
This Is a debatablc question, and
one which may fairly be presented
to the public. But as the rector Of
St. Peters parish. protest that no
one has the right to use bulletin
board belonging to the parish for
| This purpose, Furthermore, the
breaking of the glass and the removal
of the poster for which the parish
paid. is an act OF vandalism which
ought to excite the INDIGNATION of all
Americans who believe in "law and
order," regardless of their views on
the temperance qpcstion.
! This question is to be settled on
the basis of facts presented to tho
public
Upholdcrs Of the use of alcOhOli>
liquors ,have the right to present
their facts. on their own bulletin
board. SO have those who oppose
the use of alcoholic liquors. Eal;
play in a just cause need have n1
! :ear. But disregard for law and the
rights OF others can win no victories
St. Peters parish will continue tc
maintain the bulletin board. and t'
display its posters. If the facts made
public can be refuted by opposing
facts, let them be presented in a fail
and open manner, and not by the un
dcrhanded and destructive methCt

What the New Federal Loan Act
Means to the Farming Interests

meet interest charges on the unpaid
balance, and $76.5O to discharge that
balance
1t will be found that in the course
OF twenty years the borrowing farm
cr will have paid a total OF 81 ,004 80
Had he borrowed 81 600 in the usual
way at per cent, at the end OF twen-
ty years he would have paid $1,000
III interest and would still owe $1,000
Under the new law, no farmer who
bOrrows from the Federal Land
banks will have to pay more than 6
per cent-any reduction in that rate
will depend upon the success OF the
banks in selling bonds based on the
farm mortgages at a price to yield
the buyer under ) per cent. The
banks are allowed per cent to pay
their expenses of operation.
10 make the bonds attractive to
investors, they are issued in denom-
nations as low as $50. Other de
nominations are $50, $500 and 1000
They are exempt from all federal
state, municipal and local taxation,
and are made legal investments, for
trust funds. Experience has shown
that such bonds may be sold in nor
NAL times to yield not over AZ per
cent and 4 per cent is common
1t is fair to assume, then, that after
the banks are in operation the aver
age farmer may borrow at not to ex-
coed per cent, and in many sections
the per cent rate will prevail.

KILLING NEAR EDGEFIELD.
Two Men Get in 8 Row During Drill
Preparatory for the Fourth.

Edgefield, June 28.-Monday af-
ternoon Archie Mayson was killed by
Wallace Waldo, the homicide occur
ring ON the plantation of Dr.. Frank
Jones, a mile from town. The parties
are negroes. From the evidence TAX
en- at the coroner's inquest it appears
that a crowd of negroes were drilling
preparing for a celebration to be held
on the fourth of next month, wooden
guns being used. After drilling for
some time, some one fired a pistol
and Waldo accused the deceased of
having fired the shot, whereupon
Archie is said to have called him a
liar, and threatened to shoot his
head off accompanying his words by
drawing a~pistol and pointing it Oh
Waldo and. swapping it at him. At
this time Waldo is said to have struck
the deceased over the head with a
gun, ffacturing the skull, causing
death in a few hours. The defend
ant was admitted to bail by Judge
DeVore in the sum of thousand dol
lars. Immediately after the killing
Sheriff Swearingen went to the scene
and arrested Waldo.

Making Pure Iron.

The variable impurities of the best
iron and iron carbon alloys available
have made unsatisfactory certain
work of the United States bureau of
standards. The working investiga-
tors, therefore, have sought to pro-
duce materials of great purity, and
for this have adopted the plan of
melting electrolytic iron with sugar
carbon in magnesia crucibles. The
electrolytic iron was prepared from
ingot iron anodes in a chloride bath.
Blowholes and impurities in the ingot
iron gave trouble in the beginning,
but the difficulty was overcome by
melting in a vacuum furnace in spec
tally made crucibles of very pure
magnesia. Iron and a series of iron
carbon alloys were eventually pro-
duced in which the impurities did not
exceed four hundredths of 1 per
cent.

authorities if they desired to remove
the bodies of the American troopers

tory for burial.
The correspondence between Gen.
Obregon and Gen. Trevino arose from
a request of Gen. George Bell, Jr.,
commander of American troops at Ell
Paso, that the Mexican government
deliver the bodies for burial. Gen.
Obregon Informed Gen. Trevino that
the expense for the transfer Of the
bodies to the United States must be
borne by the American government.

PIN IN BABY,S STOMACH.
Doctor Rushes Infant to Columbia
Hospital.

Bowman, June 2S.-A very dis
tressing and probably serious acc1-
dent occurred here yesterday morn
ing, in which an infant son of Mr..
and Mrs. O. P. Evans swallowed a
safety pin of medium size. The moth
er saw the child with the pin in its
mouth, but before she could secure
it the child swallowed it. The
pin was open, the point be-
ing up instead of down. DR..
A. L. Black took the child and
mother to Columbia, catching the
regular morning train yesterday. AS
soon as practicable after arrival at
Columbia an examination revealed
the pin in the child's stomach. Fur
ther treatment of the case was post
poned until decision is reached as
td the treatment of the case. The
child is about year old and is very
hearty and active for it's age.

EASEMENT SENTENCED TO DIE.
Irish Knight Declared by British Jury
Guilty of High Treason.

London, June 29.-Viscount Read
ing, lord chief justice of England,
with the black cloth by tradition
called a cap, spread over his head,
and his two associates in scarlet
gowns likewise black-capped, pro-
nounced the sentence of death for
high treason on the Irishman, Sir
Roger Easement, shortly before
o'clock this afternoon, half an hour
after the foreman of the jury, in a
shaking voice, gave the verdict Of
guilty.
After the verdict had been return.
ed Sir Roger began to read a very
long statement.
i Sir Roger received the sentence
with the utmost composure, smiling
at his friends in the court room. His
statement was a plea for the right to
be tried by Irishmen and for Irish
nationality.
After Sir Roger mad been sem
fenced, Daniel J. Bailey, a private
soldier, who had been held as his
accomplice, was placed in the dock.
The chief justice directed the jury
to return verdict of not guilty and
Bailey was discharged.
The attorney general announced
Bailey had affirmed he joined the
Irish brigade with the object of re-
turning to his country and rejoining
the army. Under the circumstances
no evidence would be produced
against him.
Michael Francis Doyle, Of Philadel-
phia, of counsel for Sir Roger, gave
the following statement tonight to
the Associated Press:
"The verdict, though regrettable
to us, was not surprise. We will
take an immediate appeal to the
criminal court of appeals and then to
the house of lords, if necessary, be-
cause we feel that the point of law
involving statute 500 years old un-
der which Sir Roger was tried never
has been legally tested"

BUYING FOR MILITIA.
Funston Laying in Big Store of Sup
plies.

San Antonio, Texas, June 29.-Any
delay incident to new negotiations
with Gen. Carranza will be of ines
timable benefit to the United States
should the course of events cause
general clash between the United
States and the forces of the de facto
government, according to army Of
ficers here. No similar advantage
would accrue to the Mexican forces,
according to those in close touch
with the department of the army.
The advantage would consist not
only of permitting the release for ae-
tive service of the $4,000 regulars
guarding the border by substitution
of National Guardsmen, but in the
concentration of supplies for big
campaign, the mobilization of trans
port facilities and the rehabilitation
of the flying arm of the service. g.
The activities of the quartermas-
ter's department of the southern de
vision have been diminished in no
way since the report was received
that the American prisoners taken at
Carrizal would be surrendered to the
American authorities. The depart
ment has continued to arrange for
camp sites for the numerous National
Guard units not yet started for the
border. Bids will be opened here
July 1 for tremendous quantities Of
provisions. Included will be requisi-
tions for 10000 pounds of beans,
$4,000 pounds of rye, 100000 cans
of tomatoes, 10000 pounds OF. cof--
fee, 10000 pounds Of sugar, $4,000
pounds of prunes, 10000 pounds Of
evaporated peaches, $4,000 cans Of
jam, 100000 pounds of salt and Co.
900 pounds Of tobacco.
It is estimated that the forage for
horses and mules used by the army
will cost the United States nearly
$s5o,ooo a month, while approxi-
mately $4,000 will be used for gaso-
line.
The pay of officers and men on the
border now approximates $1,800,000
month, but this will be greatly in
creased by the addition Of National
Guardsmen. 4
