His speech was the bitterest denun-

Wilson and il included the declaration
that had he been president he would

"Oh. If Mr. Wilson only had the cour-
age and resolution of Old Hickory"
Roosevelt declared in sarcastic falsetto,
he'd have made good his fine words
that have been meaningless.
You folks all know that the sheriff,
the marshal, the police chief are peace

cratic economic proposals, and the
recognition and influence of these
men-all these things indicate the
progress of Democracy, nor merely
the progress, but actual achievement
far beyond all the possible accom-
plishments or influence of those who
merely rave bitterly, or of the good
souls who are struggling with half
digested, not to say wholly undigest-
able and contradictory ideas which
only confuse and confound.
Democracy, whether spelled with
capital or with a little d, is march
ing forward and marching rapidly
toward the goal of the specialization
of that which is social, the individ-
ualization of that which is individ-
ual, wrestling unfair privilege from
the few, restoring purloined rights
to the many, and the establishing OF
society upon the firm basis of justice,
equity, and equal opportunity. There
are yet few Bourbons and special
privilege seekers and apologists in
the Democratic ranks, but they are
as out of place as - we'll, as that
splendid man Congressman Kent, of
California, is in the Republican party.

WHAT OUR Fathers READ ABOUT
IN THIS PAPER Fifty YEARS AGO

From The Washington Standard for
February 10, 1886. Vol. vi. No. II.
No historian has ever given us a
true epoch of the use of metallic can
non; it is certain, however, that they
were in use about the middle of the
fourteenth century. The first can
non was made of wood, wrapped in
numerous folds of linen and we'll Sc
cured by iron hoops.
The most cheering intelligence is
received from the East in respect to
the great project of the North Pacific
railroad. Its commencement at an
early day and the completion of it
within five years from Puget Sound
to Boston has been determined upon,
backed by the wealth and, most of
all, the energy of the capitalists of
Boston.
There have been more thieves and
desperadoes prowling around the
Sound this winter than ever before.
Many bad characters who have been
driven out Of other places and fugi-
tives from justice have taken refuge
here and been forced to desperate
means of obtaining a livelihood. A
few nights ago a number of suspi-
cious characters were seen lodging
about. Our citizens should be pre-
pared to give them warm reception.
1t has been ascertained by the use
of spirit level that the spring from
which it is contemplated to bring
water into town is on level with
the top of the windows of the first
story of the capitol. 1t will furnish
stream large enough to supply a
city of 5000 inhabitants.
The terrific winds of wednesday
knocked the telegraph wires in this
section galley west" and the rains
came down in torrents unequaled
since Noah's time. We shall, nc
doubt, hear of many casualties re-
sulting from the storm.

HOMECOMING CLUBS ARE
BIG SUCCESS IN SOUTH
1000 Girls Help Their Families by
Gardening and Preserving Prod.
ucts for Home Use or Sale.

Southern states were enrolled in
1915 in the girls canning clubs car
ried on comparatively by the state
agricultural colleges and the depart
ment, says the Weekly News Letter
of the United States department of
agriculture. The purpose of these
clubs is to encourage girls from 10 to
Is years to grow tomatoes and other
vegetables in tenth-acre gardens and
to can their products for home use
or for sale. These clubs are under
the supervision of nearly 400 women
agents. who represent jointly the
Office of extension work, South, of the
states relation service, and the ex-
tension departments of the several
state colleges.
During the first year of member
ship, those in charge find that caring
for one crop, preferably tomatoes. in
a tenth-acre garden and selling or
canning the product, gives even a
very ambitious girl all the work she
can do. In the second and later
years, however, the girls are encour-
aged to raise two or three different
kinds of vegetables in their plotA and
to extend their canning operations. as
their skill grows, to other surplus
products of the farm, and especially
to the putting up of small fruits. or
chard fruits, and native wild fruits,
which make a palatable or market
able product when processed.
Clubs Principal Object.
The principal object of the club is
to teach the girls how to keep sur
plus fruits and vegetables from going
to waste, and by canning, to make
them valuable addition to the food
supply OF the farm home, especially
during the winter. Many ambitious
girls, however, not only put up
enough canned goods and jars of
fruit for home consumption, but
make tidy monetary profit besides.

1915 are not yet compiled, it is
known that in 1914, 1913 canning
club girls who rendered full reports
of their work put up 1,918,O24 cans,
Jars, and other containers of fruits
and vegetables, which were worth,
according to conservative estimates,
$2S4,S8O, of which nearly 100000
could be credited to profit. 1t is esti-
mated that the average profit per
member was $3.50. These figures,
of course, do not include the prod
ucts of many thousands Of other chill
dren who failed to send In accurate
reports but who. it is known, raised
and canned thousands Of dollars
worth Of products from their own
gardens and from their fathers
truck patches.
The girls who have been In the
club work since it's organization in
the South in 1910, or who have COM
pleted the work Of more than one
wear, have also made choice pre-
serves, jelly, marmalades, and
pickles, and in many cases have de-
veloped special products best adapt
, ed to their sections of the Southern
states. For example, much special
work has been done with peaches
berries, grapes, figs, scuppernongs
mayhaws, ajeritas, oranges, KUN

The Republicans are sore distressed
about what the Democrats have done,
are doing, are going to do to the
sugar interests of the country. The
answer is that the beet sugar people
last year exceeded their previous an

least one small crimp was put in the
sugar refineries combination to the
end that they had to stop edging up
the price of sugar to the consumers.

 Admits City Utility Plant a Fail ure.-Lighting Commissioner Davis of Cleveland, O., has made frank con- fession admitting that the city's mu- nicipal lighting system has proven a white elephant. The plant has never paid dollar toward the bonded debt created to pay for it and has been mak- ing monthly deficits of from $10.0OO to $16,000.
 "Commissioner Davis asserts that there has been great waste and over expenditures, and slipshod methods of bookkeeping have so muddled the ac- counts as to leave the situation in a hopeless snarl. He said he had asked the sinking fund to let him know how the bond issue on the East Fifty third street plant stood The so-called White way lighting system was not completed although $200,000 appropriated for it had been expended and there was no hope of bond issue to complete it this year. The overexpenditures on that feature of the plant had been fully $100.00O.
