Body OF Drowned Man Identified

MIS-. PeLeT MllIOH OIulIu VI VIZ
mington, Del, has identified the
body washed ashore at Haines Is
land, near Peach Bottom, recently,
as that of her husband, who winter
before last attempted to cross the
Susauehanna at Pequea to York Fur
mace, broke through the ice and was
drowned. Identification was possible
by the clothing found on the skele-
ton. A year ago, however, Mrs.
Smith identified the body of for
eigner, also drowned, as that of her
husband. other relatives doubted
it and the body was exhumed, when
the error was established.

REPORT OF THE HAGUE TEACH
ERS' ASSOCIATION.

The association had it's fourth meet
ing Saturday, January 18th. The
prcrram was especially conspicuous
for its many absent numbers. Every
member of the association had num-
Der assigned, but either the members
were absent or came unprepared.
The following teachers were pres
ent: The Misses Esther Edmonds and
S. Cecilia Hem; the Messrs. John
Croasdaile, Russell Gooding, W. d.
Hollopeter, G. j. Kundert, Gust
Feichtinger, j. Gaylord, II. B. Kiefcr
and G. Potter.
The teachers that came prepared
were: Miss s. Cecilia HEM who gave
us the start of an interesting story.
Mr.. Croasdaile concluded his in
structive paper on Factors in Study"
Some of the points might have been
radical to many of our book educators
but every practical teacher would en-
dorsc the words of Mr. Croasdailc.
Miss Esther Edmunds delighted ali
present with touching life story
which was the more enjoyed for its
able rendition.
Mr.. Feichtinger gave US the "Con-
stitution's Last Fight" with the same
spirit as the animated poem portrayg.
MIR. Potter had short but well
chosen selection. Short as it was it
was to the point as it was an encour-
-agement for the teachers to learn
from these few words what they real
ly are in their realm of work.
Mr.. Gaylord 1et us first compli-
mcnt him for the interest he takes in
our association in walking distance
of over six miles to take part in our
mectingsl had well written paper
on Fruit Growing" in the Yakima
Valley, Wash. The teachers appre-
ciate such instruction.
H. B. Kiefcr gave us some "Ran-
dom Shots on School Management
and Discipline" culled from his many
years of work in the rural country
schools.
All said, the teachers that had their
subjects had them well. We will re-
frain from any comment regarding
those teachers that do not think it
worth the while to present themselves
at these meetings
teachers present promised to do their
part again. The other teachers will
be informed through the secretary
what their work will be as outlined
by the program committee.

for the most prosperous conditions
possible in his business. He is not
narrow-minded, however, and above
all refuses to sign any Of Townley's
pledges. Tho league tried everything
possible to defeat him, and failed.
He reports that twice before election
League representatives came to his
home and attempted to secure his sig
nature to their pledge, and failed. In
their league legislative convention a
sign proclaimed "Cary is against the
farmers; Hanson is for the farmers. I"
And Hanson received the league en-
dorsement by bare majority. In
the election it was all Cary.
Owing to the fact that the league
bosses do not know just how strong
they dare so, little has been done rs
yet in the way of introduction of bills.
In fact, the session is far behind what
is usually the case. League mem-
bers, generally, arc not introducing
bills for themselves. Rather, they
are leaving pretty much everything up
to the organization.
Townley is proving himself q mas
ter artist at pulling of the right wires
at the right time. His organization
is exhorting league members to write
their legislators demanding they sup
port the new constitution plan. In
addition, monster mass meetings are
to be arranged for the moral infiu-
ence it will have on the opposition.
The fact that the people at these
meetings will BIZ taking Townley's
word Tor pretty much everything ow-
ing to their not being in position
to get the inside facts for themselves,
makes no difference.
If we were to hazard guess, from
what we saw in Bismarck, we would
say that the present session of the leg
islature will fail to do very much Of
anything, and after it is all over con-
siderable time will be spent by the va
rious forces in determining just why.

their work. They did up the business
at the annual meeting last week all
shipshape in very short space Of
time. Besides the regular routine
business, which included allowing II
big batch of bills, they appointed the
official county papers for this year.
They are the Emmons County Rcpub-
lican, Emmons County Record and the
Braddock News Road supervisors
were appointed in the various road
districts and much other special bus
mess attended to.

tions are to be found standing % firm
ly rs rock against some Of the more
rabid Of the league demands. They
prefer to 60 down to political suicide
il needs be rather than surrender to
some Of the unheard-of demands Of the
league. Many Of them firmly be-
lieve that the time will come when
the substantial citizens Of the state,
both farmers and other classes, will
join in thanking these men for pro-
tecting the state government in the
face Of the big storm.
I In the house there is little or no
excitement. League machinery rules
entirely. Bowen, chief clerk Of the
house, is one Of the league bosses and
fills in as sort Of stage-director.
All Official league information, SO far
as the house is concerned, is sought
from Bowen. When the leagues
constitutional revision scheme had
been read in the house, the newspaper
men attempted to secure copy of
the changes for publication. This
was refused them. Later, fight
was made on the floor of the house
over this matter, the law requiring
three copies of all bills 80 that, the
newspapers may have access to one.
When it was found how matters stood,
the house allowed the newspaper men
the privilege Of copying what they
saw fit. The author of the bill de-
MED any intent to use star.chamber
methods. House employees, however,
had not felt that way. Shortly after
adjournment, when the bill had been
read, the writer happened to be on
the street-car with one Smith, from
Ward county, house employe. He
referred to the attempt of the news
paper men to get access to the bill,
and commented upon the fact that
they were a lazy bunch and that they
could wait until copies of the bill were
printed for distribution.
House committees are sort of q
necessary formality, as all bills are
either passed or killed at the league
caucuses down town at the Northwest
hotel.
In the senate things are a little diff
ferent. The league appears to con-
troll eighteen members out Of forty
nine. In addition, the president Of
the senate, Lieutenant Governor Kraa-
bel, has the league endorsement. How
ever, there is deep rumblings of dis
content over the senate organization
and the presidents committee ap-
pointments. Two league members
and two independents were designated
10 committee to assist the presiding
Office, in appointment Of committees
lind 1pendents are in control of mos,
q the committees, the reason given
being that senators ,of legislative ex.
perience were given preference or
committees. One league senator
Pendray, of Stutsman county, ap'
pears very much disgruntled because
Of his assignments.
One of the independent farmer
members of the senate who was elect
ed at the last general election is Cary
Of Richland county. Mr.. Cary is 9
bona fide farmer and Of course wishes

The dawn Of the Fourth-the Old annual story
The nervous man dread and the small boys glory.
The east is yet gray when all the land rumbles,
And the small cannon pops and the big cannon grurnbes'
And the torrid sun creeps through a blue haze of powder.
And the torpedoes snap and the Cannons boom louder
On the Fourth OF July
The old fashioned Fourth Of July.
