COOPERATING FOR GOOD.


We have occasionally had something
to say about abuse of our old fat Irish
friends, the Catholics. On this topic
there is always sure evidence of I'M
due excitement. What the Catholics
had to say in their church sessions in
New York has been flung back at us
and we were especially warned that
the Catholics had made the threat to
vote as body.
The Catholics did such thing, but
he threat was not quite the proper
step for a church organization to take.
When this was cited as a terrible Cath
Ollie evil, we started out to find if we
are not guilty of the same kind Of con-
duct. We know it is true that Pro-
testant denominations control wherev-
er it is possible. Nobody should toll
name of the church or Christian or
ganization, no matter where nor when.
We are as guilty as are the Catholics
in our efforts to dominate politics with
our church influence and among all of
it is wrong.
But we have found utterances that
show abundant proof of it. We did not
expect, however, such a plain mani
festation in the territory covered so
we'll by Tom Watson in his anti-Cath-
tern portion of the state where the
word Catholic" has been made the
signal for the voter to hunt blood, the
HARRISON Sentinel prints the follow
ing:
"There are 2S0OO,O00 profess
ing Christians in the United States
Working together, they would hold
the balance of power in any good
movement.
"The ratio Of protesting Christ
ians in Tallopoosa is much higher
than in the nation as a whole, be-
cause the millions of non-Christ-
ians in the big cities lower the
percentage of Christians from a
nation wide aspect
'If the Christians in Tallapoosa
held together, worked together,
co-operated, their influence would
carry the town in every good
cause.
$50 many of them are busy in
worldly things however that they
have no time to cooperate"
We have no love for the Catholics
as a religious order. Nothing they do
as religious service conforms to our
idea of worship, but we have never
been quite willing to take a club and
knock them because they have a re-
ligious service or belief that isn't like
ours. And to drag out the candidates
for common dog fight in every pri-
mary by yelling, "The Catholics" is
the lowest order of procedure.
We boast of our Protestant power
and influence. Here is a poor, ig-
norant example of a suggestion that
the Christians might run the govern
ment There is only one way through
which it would be abundantly proper
for the Christians to run the govern
ment, and that is through such a pow
erful example of goodness in the life
of the Protestant as to cause Christi
anity to circumscribe all of us. That
way, and that alone, is opened by
Christianity.
When we start out as church or
ganization to run the affairs of gov
eminent because of sheer number and
voting power. we leave the Christian
atmosphere and destroy all usefulness
as an agency for good.

SINKS TO DEATH IN MIRE
AS SNAKES STRIKE AT HIM

DENVER Colo. Oct. 30.-A hor-
rible death, atone at night in a vast,
tracliless swamp where he gradually
sank from sight into the foul green
miro, while venomous snakes snapped
at his face, was the fate OF Samuel
D. Barry, former resident of Cold
en-, who escaped from n Colorado
sheriH when being brought back from
New Orleans to stand trial in Golden
on charges OF horse stealing.
Barry. 25 years old, leaped
through the open window OF a Santa
Fe train near Guthrie. Okla, when
the express was making nifty miles an
hour and passing a swamp forty miles
square. 1t was nearly 9 o'clock al
night and dark.
The train was stopped and search
begun. Traces OF blood were fol-
lowed from where Barry landed to
the edge OF the swamp, a few yards
ngay. Out In the dismal, murky
swamp means and cries could be
family heard, but these suddenly
ceased. BY the aid OF their lanterns
the searchers could see hundreds OF
the writing, wriggling venomous
reptiles which infest tho morass,
Residents of the region say that
there is no doubt Barry plunged
headlong into tho black swamp to
escape and gradually sank below the
surface of the treacherous bog with
in few minutes. They also state
that the reptiles would have caused
his death In a few minutes.

which knocked one Of the front
wheels off. The car slid about
thirty feet and the wheel came
rolling along after. II looked
for a while like the car would
turn over but providence kept
the remaining three wheels on
the ground. The accident did
not damage the car to any great
extent and it was hauled Ia with
out any further trouble.

growth.
Wheat may, be sowed later IN
rich soil and we'll prepared ground
than in soil that Is poor or poorly
prepared. Early and thorough
preparation not only destroys
many of the flies in the stubble
but enables the wheat to make a
more rapid and vigorous growth.
Strong wheat plants are damaged
less by Hessiau fly and stand
more severe winters than plants
which are small and weak
Wheat should be sowed somewhat
thicker when planted late. Late
planted wheat often terminates
less, and usually tillers less,
than wheat sowed earlier.

certain to be injured BY Hessiau
Az II these insects are present In
the neiRhborhood. In dry seasons
very early seeding is often detri-
mental because the heavy growth
uses all the moisture stored In
the soil and leaves the crop en-
tirely dependent on seasonal
rains. This happens frequently
in western Kansas The best
time to seed varies with different
sections of the state, with different
seasons, and different conditions.
For these reasons no definite date
for planting can be given.
In central and eastern Kansas
wheat may be sowed late enough
TO avoid most of the injury from
Hessian fly and yet early enough
on we'll prepared ground to secure
a good growth before winter.
The best date OF seeding in north
eastern Kansas varies from about
September IS to October 8; in
south central Kansas from about
September rs to October 2; and
in north central Kansas from
September 20 to October 1.
The time for seeding In western
Kansas depends on the rainfall
It is usually not advisable to
seed in dry ground. The land
should be prepared early and
