CLASS VISITS WHITE BIRD.
''The HoOdoo," Senior Glass Play, At
tracts Large Audience.

Last Saturday the cast of "The
Hoodoo," the Senior class play, ac-
companied by the High school base
ball team and the band, journeyed
down to Whitebird, where they play
ed to a packed house that evening
The trip was made In five rigs, the
party returning home Sunday after
noon. Weather conditions were ideal,
In fact the party found real summer
weather In the valley, which accounts
for the large turn out.
On the way down the party stopped
at the foot Of the grade and had lunch
in picnic style, and arrived In the
Salmon river metropolis about one
o'clock. The ball team Immediately
got busy and succeeded In defeating
the Whitebird school team, the score
being given below.
BY eight o'clock In the evening the
Cone hall was completely filled and
when the curtain rose ON the first act
of "The Hoodoo" there was not even
standing room left.
The play held its audiences closest
attention until the final scene which
was followed by very generous ap-
plause. 1t Is needless to say that each
and every member of the cast was
at his best and the Whitebird people
were more than generous with their
praise.
AS the story Of the play has been
previously published in this paper
along with comments by a well known
critic it will only be necessary to
state that the students lived up to
their reputation.
The proceeds of the evening came
to Silt and after paying all expenses
goodly sum was left for both the
local and Whitebird schools.
Following the play an orchestra,
composed of band boys, gave dance
which was well attended.
1t might be well to state here that
the services of G. II. Krakau went far
toward the success of the trip. Mr.
Krakau painted all the scenery for the
three acts, made the trip and put 1t
, up. He has the most sincere thanks
of the school.
! On Sunday incoming the boys played
/ baseball with Freedom team and ow-
ing to the superior class of the latter
the boys were defeated but the stu
dents made the river fellows hustle.
On both days the High school band,
under the leadership of Harris Hill
bourne, played before and after the
ball game and also gave concert
before the play. They were compli-
mented time and again and asked tc
return in the next month.
The trip was a grand success In
every way, there being talk of making
it an annual affair. Such things &c
long way towards cementing the
two towns closer together, and the
Grangeville people will have to gel
up and hustle If they expect to equa
the Whitebird people when it comes
to hospitality and perfect treatment
Every member of the cast was made
to feel at home by them and not only
were our people well cared for -
were shown every little courtesy.

FARMERS BE CAREFUL.

Several states have been quaran'
tined against cattle coming from the
Kansas City section of the country
because of the reported prevalence OF
foot and mouth disease. While the
government officials have not DEFINITE
ly pronounced the outbreak as loot
and mouth disease mere suspicion
that it is should be sufficient to cause
the most severe precautions to be
taken. It would be the part of wisdom
IL the officials of Tennessee were on
their guard against cattle from the
territory supposed to be infected. NO
chances whatever should be taken.
One case of foot and mouth deisease in
the state would be a tremendously
expensive thing. The farmers like
wise should refuse at this time to buy
or import any cattle from the sus-
picious territory. 1t Is too late after
the horse is gone to lock the stable
door. In dealing with foe like foot
and mouth an ounce Of prevention is
worth ton Of cure.

interest of economy of both time ana

more courts and more judges than any
state in the South in proportion 10

of the courts the dockets are congest-
ed and the work far behind. Every
legislature Greatest additional courts
There should also be a reformation IN
the interest of justice, especially III
our criminal procedure. The defen-
dant has altogether too much the ad-
vantage. 1t should be at least no
more difficult to convict murderer
than it is to secure verdict OF guilty
against a bootlegger. That is not the
case now. A man who deliberately
shoots down his fellow man for some
fancied or real private injury has a
very much greater chance to escape
the consequences Of his deed than
does the individual who haunts the
hack alleys with little red liquor.

A DRY DEMOCRACY.

In his speech at the big democratic
Jubilee here, Senator Lea expressed
the hope that four years from now the
prohibition South and the prohibition
West would unite In the democratic
party and demand declaration Tor
national wide prohibition. William J..
Bryan has announced that he would
make a fight for a prohibition plank
at the next democratic convention
MIR. Bryan's state recently went dry
an. with two or three exceptions
every state that has prohibition was
carried by Wilson. Unquestionably II
the prohibition democrats make the
effort they can control the next ma
tional convention A straightout light
for nationwide prohibition might not
succeed the first time, but in the end
II is coming. With twenty-three OF the
forty.eight states already dry or in
the process of going dry, it is almost
safe to predict that within the four
years to intervene between now and
the next presidential contest a half
dozen more states will join the col
umn, Voting solidly these states can
easily dominate the democratic con-
Vention.
The republican party enjoys the
distinction of having freed the slaves
in this republic and saved the Union
If the democratic party shall free the
nation of the curse of the liquor traf
fic it will achieve a greater blessing
even for humanity than did the repuD
iican party when it kept this Union
an Undesirable Union of indestructl
BILE states" 1t is at least worthy OF
the effort. The United States OF
America free from the curse OF the
liquor evil, not as war necessity, but
because of the enlightened Christian
sentiment of the people would be one
of the noblest achievements in the his
tory of civilization. It would be an
inspiration to other people. Its benin
cent results would be felt all around
fhe world. There is not people who
would not receive some benefit from
a dry nation, nation like the great
Western republic.

A GOOD MAN GONE.

When w. w. Ogilvie died one Oh the
hest men and most useful citizens IN

He served his state, his county and
his community we'll. He was honest
sincere, upright in his walk in lie ana
the very soul of honor. He was gen
tie and clean as woman. TO really
know the man was to love him. he
held his friends by hoops of steel. NO
more loval heart ever beat in mortal
breast than that of Wave Ogilvie. lie
would never sacrifice a principle OF
compromise a conviction.
For four years he served with credlt
"a tho state as commissioner Of agr1-
culture. The office was ably admins
tered. He was recognized as one OF
the most efficient and enthusiastic
agricultural heads in the country. HIS
heart was in the work. He was nat
ural born farmer. He loved the coun-
try and had a keen appreciation OF
4he beauties and mysteries OF nature.
He was a successful farmer because
he was energetic and systematic and
thoroughly attached to the soil. He
was in every sense of the word good
man. The world is richer, infinitely
richer for the lives of such men; 1t Is
made poor when they cease this earth

NO FOOD EMBARGO.

For nearly twenty years. uuIlh6 Ih0
late eighties, the nineties and early
In this century, the farmers of Ameri'
ca were in the slough Of despond
Year after year their products were
bringing less and less in the markets
of the world; the fertility of their
lands was being depleted; their mort
cages were growing larger and all the
time they were being taxed upon all
their machinery and clothing and 9TH
er necessities that the protected indus
tries of the East might fatten and be
able to supply the republican party
with colossal campaign funds with
which to buy the presidency.
During the past decade, and espe-
cially within the last five years, the
situation has changed. Farm products
are bringing more than ever before;
the farm mortgage is no longer a bur-
den: farmers are enjoying some OF the
! Injuries as we'll as all of the necessi-
ties of life; prosperity abounds in the
cities and towns located in agricul-
tural sections. Farmers are restor-
| ing fertility to their lands and raising
larger and better crops. They are en-
Toying the markets of the world, the
good old democratic doctrine that one
may buy in the cheapest and sell in
the best markets without any artifi-
cial restrictions.
Comes now a member OF congress,
protesting to be democrat, from the
East and proposes that an embargo be
placed upon the expectation of all
food products, thereby placing the
farmers of this country at the mercy
Of the stock manipulators of the Amer
lean cities. He would end this stream
Of gold that is making the farmer
richer, the towns more prosperous and
the people happier because food is
costing the people in the East more
than it did when farmers could not get
enough to pay their taxes and interest
from the most bounteous crops ever
produced. The prosperity that the
farmers are enjoying is not confined
to them, it is general. When the
farmers received starvation prices,
when cattle sold at two cents and hogs
at two and half cents and corn at
a dollar barrel, it was actually hard
err for the people in the towns and
cities to pay the price than it is now
to pay four or five times as much.
The farmers are having an inning
now after twenty years of famine.
Assuredly they are entitled to it. Not
only would an embargo be unjust, but
1t would be wholly undemocratic. The
time-honored doctrine of the demo
cratic party would be ruthlessly set
aside. From the very organization Of
the party it has Numbered against
artificial and legal restrictions upon
trade and markets. Upon its record
of Justice to the farmers it has re-
elected Wilson president His major
tiles came almost wholly from the
agricultural states of the Union. Will
the democratic party now betray the
farmers who have given it vote of
confidence: prove false to its past
tenets and unworthy of its traditions,
at the behest Of those sections that
knew it not in the recent great con-
test?

CRIMINAL PROCEDURE.

In criminal cases in Alabama they
do things much better than we do in
this state. In fact, Tennessee has
about the most antiquated and I'M
wieldy criminal procedure Of any state
of the Union. There have recently
been two trials in the two states that
illustrate very clearly the difference,
which is all against Tennessee. In
Alabama one of the most important
murder trials ever held in the state,
the defendant prominent official, the
murdered man another equally as
prominent official, was over in SIX
DAYS. In Tennessee'a month was re-
uuired, although the case had less OF
mystery than that in Alabama. 1t
took many many hours longer to select
a Jury in this state than it did in our
neighboring state. The lawyers were
given much more latitude in the exam
ination of witnesses in Nashville than
they were allowed in Alabama. Grim,
inal trials are seemingly conducted in
this state with the view to concealing
the real facts in mass of detail that
really should have no bearing on the
issue. Long and involved examina-
fions are permitted here and facts are
brought into the record that have no
other object save to divert the atten'
ton Of the jury from the real issue.
Tennessee needs nothing more than
1t does reformation of its criminal
procedure. 1t should be done in the

Time is Always Well Spent in the
Ready-To-Wear Section
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1916-01-17

The final touch to fame in Philadelphia
is to have a tugboat named after you.
Such an honor has come to the lot of
former mayors, governors and Just or
dinary statesmen, and IL was learned to-
day that no less person than Congress-
man William S. Ware is to receive such
tribute In fairness to the Congressman
It must be said that this glory has come
unsolicited.
The desire to have tug named William
S. Ware has been expressed by the Peter
Hagan Company At present the firm
has tug called the John J. Hasan and
has applied to the Bureau of Navigation
for permission TO change the cognomen.
Faithful followers OF the CONGRESSMAN
believe that he Is entitled to the honor
of namesake tug as much as other
prominent Philadelphians. 1t Is pointed
out that Senator Penrose has both
ferry and n bridge named after him, so II
is very fitting. argue the Varieties that
the downtown leader should have some
recognition. In view of the aggressive
methods of the Congressman they believe
that tugboat typifies. his policies. He
pulls his constituents over troubled
waters, they declare, and manages TO get
the best end of all collisions. 1ncident-
ally, they point out that his craft is man
aged by an Industrious crew.

BILL WARES FAME is SECURE;
TUGBOAT WILL BE NAMED FOR HIM
Other Politico-Statesmen Have Seen to 1t That Their
Names Will Live Forever but the South Philadelphia
Congressman Gets His Honor Without Solicitation

The names OF many c. :. and state off,
cials have been perpetuated by tugboats.
For instance, there are the police boats
Ashbridge, King. Stockley and the fireboat
Reyburn. Ex-Governor Pennypacker. II
Is said. has also been honored by an off,
cial craft of some sort which sails the
Delaware
In honor of the late M. S. Quay, boat
bearing this name Is used by the Com
missioner of Navigation. AS the depart
ed leader frequently piloted the Organiza-
tlon safely through many storms, this
seems n Just memorial.
The frIgidty which accompanied the
last days of former Mayor Weaver's ad-
mlnistration inspired the Organization to
name an iceboat in his honor Mr.
Weaver, incidentally. cut lots of ice dur
ing his storm-tossed reign by firing the
heads of his departments and defying
temporarily those who sought to direct
his course
II Is expected that the tugboat Ware
will soon be a familiar sight on the
Schuylkill. and in this position the crew
can keep weather eye on the West
Philadelphia vote.
Several politicians pointed out that DR..
Moses Stearn has something on all of
them as far as boat fame is concerned.
