CIRCUIT COURT BEGINS

The fall term Of the Montgomery
Circuit Court began Monday, and
good many cases are on the
docket. The most important, and
the only murder case, is the case of
Cleveland PeAgram, charged with
the murder of James Harris at
Olympia, and transferred here on a
change of venue from the Bath Cir
cult Court. The trial of this case
was entered into at the last term Of
the Montgomery Circuit Court but
continued by agreement before fin
ished. The suits of Jack Hollearn
against the c. & o. railroad and of
Mrs. Matt Kelly against the c. & o.
will also come up at this term.
The local court several months ago
awarded Mrs. Kelly a verdict but
the case was carried TO the Su-
preme Court of the United States
which ordered a new trial. Mr..
Holearn was injured some time ago
when the fast c. & o. train struck
the ice wagon he was driving for
the Kentuckv Utilities COMPANY
near their local plant in this city,
killing Ray McCarty. In all there
are fifty-two appearance cases and
ninety-two continued. This is the
first term of court under the
recent act changing the time of
holding court in this district. This
term formerly began on the third
Monday in September.

President Wilson said at Omaha
that America is as ready to fight

be just. That's the thing. We must
not be thrown into all the horrors

make speculation become remuner-

PROFIT IN RAISING TURKEYS
Farmers Are Cautioned to Give Mar
ketino Problems More Attention
Best Birds for Breeding.

For those who conduct the business
carefully turkey raising is likely to
be very profitable. The demand in
this country continues to increase, ap-
parently, faster than the supply. Farm
ers who go into the business. however,
are cautioned to give the marketing
problem considerable attention In ad
vance.
In the turkey publications of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, which is Farmers Bulletin No.
200, the following rules for selecting
turkeys for breeding are given:
First-Always use as breeders
turkey hens over one year old. Be
sure they are strong, healthy. and
vigorous, and of good medium size. In
no instance select the smaller ones.
Do not strive to have them unnatu-
rally large.
Second-The male may be q year
ling or older. Do not imagine that
large, overgrown males are best.
Strength, health, and vigor, with we'll
proportional, medium size, are the
main points of excellence.
Third-Avoid close breeding New
blood is Of vital importance to turkeys.

BETTER ATTENTION TO EGGS
They Should Be Uniform in Color and
Shape, and Regular in Size a.
Far az Possible.

More attention should be paid to
eggs at all times and under all cir
cumstances. This means that they
should be uniform in color and shape
and regular in size as far as possible.
II they had more attention paid to
them at our fairs and were brought
to the notice of the public and the
farmers in particular, much good
would come from 1t. Let US offer
good prizes for display of eggs, say
not less than three dozen, and have it
stipulated that they be strictly fresh;
that no cold storage stock need apply
for the sake of selecting for size. II
such a plan were carried out at a
number of our fairs for few years
the selection of good eggs would get
to be science and would interest the
poultry public to a great degree. and
be of untold benefit to all of US,
whether as producers or consumers of
eggs.

HE REALLY DOESN'T KNOW
cit may be very important that, here

Candidate Hughes.
Mr.. Hughes ignorance on this sub
ject was to be expected. For years
he has been wholly out of touch with
wage-earners. He knows not wheth-
er they are starving or being Overfed.
He knows nothing about the effects
of the high cost of living upon work
ingmen's homes and lives. He isn't
quite sure that, here and there, there
should be better pay. He sees fell
lows like PenrOse, Smoot, Perkins
and Crane eating cake, and, very
likely, concludes therefrom that all
workingmen easily get bread. Fact
is, that it is only since he became
awfugyE hungry for the presidency
that Mr.. Hughes was particularly in
terested in what the Wage-earner is
getting.

We believe him. He's human. When
a fellow has had his bread buttered
on both sides, for years, he doesn't
usually make a careful study of
what the other fellow isn't getting;
he usually goes to studying on how
to get two inches of butter, where
there was only one before; he usually
acquires the obsessiOn that every
body else must be feeling well, and
let's it go at that.
We believe that Mr.. Hughes does
not know that anybody else needs
higher wages. And he wouldn't be
about it, if he were not
about the election, either

President Has a Record
Amount of Patronage
in His Hands.
SALARIES TOTAL
$250,000 A YEAR
Enough $4,000 Places to Give
Each Doubtful State at
Least Two.
From The Tribune Bureau ]

Washington. July 90. - Democratic
politicians are counting as big asset
of the coming campaign the fact that,
including the many new Offices created
by Congress. the President now has in
his hands the largest amount of patron
age ever known in the last year of an
Administration. There are at least two
places with pay of $4,000 year or
better, for every state that is in the
slightest degree doubtful. and if the
distribution should be narrowed down
to the pivotal states a Federal place
could be found for one man in virtually
every district. The salaries will total
more than s25O,0OO a year
The pressure on the White House by
anxious Senators and Representatives
is already terrific.
Three important commissions are to
be appointed by the President: The
rural credits ,or farm loan board; the
tariff commission, which will be pro-
vided in the revenue bill, and the ship
ping board, which will be provided in
the ship purchase bill.
From the point of view of patronage
sad mistake was made by the Demo
Gratis in authorizing the Federal Trade
Commission. No appropriations were
made for the minor places and an
amendment limited the salaries
of assistants who might be engaged
No such mistake" was made in
creating the Farm Loan Board. II will
not only have five members at $4,000
year each and secretary at $4,000,
but there are many other places to be
filed. while the words civil service"
appear nowhere in the enabling act
Moreover. the compensation of those
appointed is to be fixed by the com
mission.
Then there is the Tariff Commission.
It will have six members, to be paid
from $500 a year each to $4,000 a
year. according to whether the House
or the Senate wins in conference. This
commission will also have a secretary
at $1,000 or $4,000. Then there are TO
be many attorneys, clerks. experts and
employees galore.
The Shipping Board will have five
members at $4,000 year each. sec
retary at $4,000 and a host of minor
places.
