A Party of Broken Promises

The Democratic administration has
eonspired with the Democratic congress
to make the economy pledge of the
Democratic national platform a laugh
ing stock. Witness the efforts which
have been put forth in behalf of the
ship purchase bill and the manufac-
ture of armour plate and extraction of
nitrogen by the government. The
pork" in the river and harbor bill
aroused honest protests from few
members of the Democratic side, and
notably one southern senator, Tillman
of South Carolina; but viewing the sit
uation as a whole there is ample JUS
tifcation for the following summing
up:
The record of congress since the
Democratic administration entered in
to power has been an undisguised cam
paign to loot the United States treas
ury, principally for the benefit of the
South, although the overwhelming
proportion of the taxes are collected
elsewhere. There is not even a rudi-
mentary sense of decencey. Congress
Tribble, for instance, introduces house
bill No. 15461 TO pay to confederate
soldiers and to the widows of confed-
crate soldiers $50 per month during
their lives, and proposes to appropri-
ate S75, 900, 600 for THE conscieneless
steal. And why not? Other appro-
priations of many millions are as rot
ten, in principle. as this attempt to
subsidize rebellion at the expense of
those whose fathers had the expense
of suppressing it. If congressional ex-
travagancs had not become a matter
so serious, and one involving all man
ner of unsound expedients for the col
lection of taxes from those who do
not benefit by these expenditures, the
situation would be almost comic. The
Democratic party has talent for cut
ting it's own throat. 1t takes four
years to achieve this result, but it
would take less if the term of Office
were shorter.
Protests like the above are going up
from all parts of the North, and the
work happily accomplished at Chicago
last week warrants confidence that
they will not be unavaililg- that the
desire of the majority of the voters will
not be thwarted as it was four years
ago by division nullifying their po-
litical power. The outlook now is that
the minority party will be regulated
TO the background by the result of the
election next November-that Hughes
and Fairbanks will be put in place of
Wilson and, Marshall, and that Re-
publican congress will undo much of
the mischief of its predecessor.-Ev Even
ing Wisconsin.

Boost, and Boost, and Boost Again

The Booster Club, with the band,
started to go to Lakewood, in three
autos, Thursday evening, to boost the
Fourth of July celebration here. Ii
was booster club, /" all right. The
roads were in such a condition that it
was a case of "Get out and boost the
car and get in and get out and boost
again" They reached Townsend, re-
naming about an hour, and then came
back, with the same performance over
again, with walking as diversion.
Huettl, with his trombone, played, for
encouragement, Don't Get Weary.
One car was left alongside the road,
and it was a wet, muddy and sorry
looking bunch when they got home
about midnight.

Some Game

It was the last half of the ninth IN
ming The score was to in favor Of
the What-Nots. With Lips pitching
and Cuspidor catching, things looked
dubious for the home team. Milk was
up first and went to the pan with con-
fidence. He splashed slippery one
over Salt at short. Milk stole second
and picked up lots of dirt in sliding.
Ham sent scorcher to Salt at short.
Pepper was hot because he fumbled it.
Pepper and Salt mixed, and were with
great difficulty separated. Cucumber,
the umpire, was cool through it ALL
Butter wa up next. He hit high
one to Mucilage in the left field, who
failed to stick. Bases full. Eggs got
smashed on three strikes. One down.
Soda sent a cracker to Lips who COB
bled it up, but shot 10 past Molasses;
Milk running in. Sugar sent a sweet
one down to first, but it was too. hot
for Molasses to stick to. Ham scored,
sliding into the pan safely on hot fire
from Molasses to Cuspidor. Sawdust
covered lots of ground on his bunt, but
Moiasses stuck high throw to first.
Two down. Ginger made it hot for
Butter when be caught him off third,
but Butter melted and slid home. Lips
began using his "spit-ball," shooting
it with great speed at Cuspidor. Pea
nuts made smashing crack to center
field, but Board stuck too close to the
fenoe, and missed it. Peanuts was held
at the first bag Onions sent smart
fly to right field, but Potatoes eyes
watered so much that he muffed it.
Peanuts was out when he slid away
I from the bag ab third. Three down;
three runs. Score tied. Game called
to give players time 90 get ready for
supper.

Enter, the Woman Congressman

IhOmaS F. Logan, III 6ehllS B.
 If woman's sphere is the home, why not the house? Miss Jeanette Rankin, the newly elected "congressman" at large from Montana, will have an opportunity to answer Miss Rankin is the first woman ever elected to Congress. The problems that confront her are as noth- ing to those that face her colleagues. Shall the speaker address her as 'The Lady From Montana?' Her maiden" speech, of course, will be that but what will be her cloakroom privilege? Miss Rankin, apparently, is not worrying. The daughter of a Montana banker, she stud led in New York, graduating from the Now York School of Philanthropy in 1908.
 As an expert sociologst, Miss Rankin began by finding homes for homeless children in Seattle. She then turned to woman suffrage and stumped the state of Washington for the cause. Return ing to Montana she took up the same work there and within three months con- verted the state legislature her views. A feature of her campaign was dance hall speeches, followed by dances on the floor with the hardy miners for part ners. She is 34. red-haired, good cook and makes her own gowns. It looks like an enormous stride, but history in this as in other respects. is more blase than is generally conceded. The Amazons were known to ancient and medieval writers. Athenian politicians took their cues from shining female lights. Cath crime the Great, Catherine de Medici Ma ria Theresa and the dowager Empress of China were no meaningless figureheads. The maid of Orleans led France to vic- tory. There is at least a mythical Pope Joan. If women ruled intrigue in the salons of Paris, so did women breed revo- lution beneath the pavements. Suffragists still living can remember when women medical students were hooted in the lec- ture rooms. Yet the woman physician has come to stay. Why not the woman congressman?

Chicago's Millionaire Philanthropist

B. C. Forbes, in Leslie s.
 Mir Julius Rosenwald of Chicago cele- brated his fiftieth birthday on August F, 1912, by making gifts totaling $7O0,00o to various worthy organizations includ- ing $250,000 to the Unis ersity of Chicago, $250, 900 for a Jewish charity building on the West Side of Chicago, S5I000 for a Social Workers Country club near Chi cago and $25,000 to Tuskegee institute off, sSoots, including rural schools for negro children. In 1911 he offered to contribute $25 900 for a colored Y M. c. A. building to every community in the United States which within five years would raise by popular subscription an additional sum of $75000. More than dozen cities qualI- fled.
 Within the last two or three years he has assisted in building about POO schools in colored rural communities, princl- pally in very poor districts of the south The late Booker T. Washington found in MT Rosenwald Ga trustee of Tuskegee in- stitute) one of his stanchest supporters. Mir. Rosenwald more than once hired sps- cial trains and took large parties to see Tuskegee.
 President Wilson recently appointed MT. Rosenwald to the advisory commission of the new council of national defense
 'I believe" he said, "a fund of S10o,- O0OoQO should be subscribed now, to be available as soon as the war ends, as Americas s contribution toward the cost of reha bilitating all the countries ravagad by the conflict; fund not for the care of dependents, but to be applied for con- struction where required.
 I asked MT. Rosenwald with whom among the warning nations his sympa- thies lay.
 with all who are suffering" he re- piled.
 But he did not tell me what I learned elsewhere that his contributions to war sufferers have averaged considerably more than $1O,oO0 month Scr the last two years
 A beautiful incident occurred while l was in MT. Rosenwalds office. The tele- phone rang and his face broke into smiles. Turning to me, he said excitedly: That was my mother She is coming to see me. She hasn't been here in four years" From this on he kept glancing out of the window, and the moment she appeared he rushed to meet her. After that he ceased to act as president of Sears, Roebuck & Co., He became just Julius and all business. so far as he was concerned, was off.
 ''Every morning m his life,' one of his associates confided to me. MT. Ro- senwald visits his mother before coming to work. And when he returns from out-of-town trips, no matter how we may be clamoring for him at the office, he first visits his mother, who is in her eighty-fourth year and actice in mind and body. MT. Rosenwald once remarked to me. I regard as fresh gift from God every day He spares her to me-

The most popular of all American breeds of poultry is the Plymouth Rock. This breed as first originated was of the Barred variety, which is yet the most popular of all the colors. Early in the breeding of Barred Plymouth Rocks fanciers reported the appearance of white chicks. They were sports" and some were bred together, producing the present variety of White Plymouth Rocks They have attained great popu- larity widely bred both for utility and fancy, and have proven perfectly satis- factory in either capacity.
 They are hardy and especially adapted t. farms. The hens lay large dark brown eggs of grade much sought in certain localities.

and three in the chest cavity. Those in the abdominal cavity lie by the side of the mass of intestines. The three in the an terior chest cavity send prolongations into these delicately walled sacs which extend into the bones. Even the bones of the skull have air spaces. The fowl is indeed a wonderful mechanism, and diff fers radically from cattle, horses or dogs
 Chicken, duck, goose and turkey feath- CTS are salable if properly saved and sorted. In the course of a year they rep resent an appreciable sum, which Is ire quently thrown away. All that is needed to take advantage of this valuable by- product is a few pointers on sorting and marketing, which will be discussed in next weeks article.

The chicks are vigorous. strong and active, and grow exceptionally fast or range, reaching maturity at from 51a to 61A months old. They are readily salable for the highest grade of market poultry at all ages from broiler size to full ma turity, and are very popular in some sections for the production of capons
 Males weigh from to Il pounds, fe. males to 10 pounds, and are probably the largest of all the Plymouth Rock family. Their plumage should be pure white, legs and beak deep rich yellow combs small, single and fine. Such a fowl not only dresses to the best advan- tage, and commands best prices, but is also very attractive in large flocks.

HOW FOLWS BREED

About 50 years ago Frenchman made study of the breathing apparatus Of the domestic fowl and in many respects he found it to be more nearly reptilian than mammalian. That is, in the fowls de- velopment it may have come from the reptilian line and not the mammalian. To illustrate one point the bird takes in air through it's mouth or nasal passage this passes through it's windpipe, the wndpipe divides at the upper and anterior part Of the lungs into two tubes. At this point there is a flattened part which is the true organ of sound, so that the bird does not make it's sound at the upper part of the neck. but in the anterior part of the chest Again, the lungs are small and located at the upper part of the chest
 Through each lung there are three tubes and large number of smaller ones given off at right angles like the tubes of pipe organ. This is not all for some of these tubes communicate with bladder-like sacs. Thus we find two in the abdominal cavity
