Putting Arnold s.an His Place..

Lawrence Gilman in North American
Review: Matthew Arnold had asked
Frank Harris to advise him about his
projected American lecture tour. Should
he 20 or not? Mr.. Harris was discour-
aging: IF your delivery is hating and
slow, and your elocution faulty, they
will probably go away to make lewd
jests about, you; in matters of art they
are barbarians."
Arnold was SO disturbed that he ex-
claimed, Goodness mel" and confessed
that he read even his own verses very
badly: II remember my wife used to
say to me, I cannot bear to hear you
read your verses. Matthew, you do
mouth them So"
Unhappy Arnold! He lives for us in
Mr.. Harris Illuminating book as, poet
ically. "a graceful singer of common
places. AS for the truth about Mat
thew Arnold and his critical faculty"
Mr. Harris gives 1t to US. ruthlessly:
Puritan prejudice and English pro-
priety debase and degrade all Arnold'S
critical work" And, as IL this were
not enough. we find mixed with these
things "the essential oil. so to speak, of
British snobbery". Mr.. Harris is con-
WINGED that Arnold could never have
been a great critic: but he might
surely have reached somewhat the same
level as Swinburne. had not English
Puritanism debased his judgment"

STRIKE SETTLEMENT
BOON TO STOCKMEN
Hay Supply About Exhausted and
Shipments From Other Places Would
Have Been Delayed by Strike.

"Now that the strike is off, we shall
have hay from Ogden and Denver in
a short time," said John Finke, propri-
etor of the Anchor Hay, Grain and
Feed company yesterday" but in the
meantime conditions are rapidly be-
coming desperate and had the strike
proceeded and heavy rain come, the
loss of stock would have been large
owing to feed shortage.
"Many farmers are short and de-
manding hay and the supply is prac-
tically used u, as everybody has been
feeding from hand to mouth. The Utoh
Construction company, anticipating q
shortage, went around and tied UP
what hay they could and many sold
thinking that they could get hay
enough at lower prices later to tide
them over The long winter caused
them to miss on their calculations, sc
that a number of farmers are now

SAM DJRFEE FAILED
TO FURNISH SUPPORT
Gets Thirty Days From Probate
Court Current Rum0rs Seemed To
Have Slandered Sam.

On complaint sworn to by Proba-
ton Officer V. H. Ormsby a thirty day
sentence was imposed Saturday on
Sam Durfee by Probate Judge o. ?.
Duvall on the charge of failure to
support his wife and family. Accord
ing to current rumor which investi-
cation tended to minimize Sam has
been an undesirable citizen affirma-
lively as we'll as negatively. It was
reported that his wife was in dan
gerous condition as a result of his at
tempting to enforce implied powers
supposed to be vested in a husband
in consequence of the "obey" promise
in the wedding ceremony and that he
had used what he considered reason
able force in the way of -chastisemen'
to secure obedience. This report
seems to have been unfounded, and
Sans trouble seems. to have been the
outgrowth of sins of omission, in the
way of failure to apply any system
of physical exertion, accumulation
and distribution, rather than the re
suit of any covert act"

The official lineup of the justices,

was said to have conceded that con-

in view of the courts decision, and
his name did not appear on the court
record as dissenting.
Maher's version, which is official,
however, made the division five t.

Justices McKenna, Holmes, Brandeis
and Clark constituting the majority
in favor of the law. Thus, the three
senior justices (White, McKenna and

justices dissenting.

GLEASON GLEANINGS
A Good Man Gone.

Mr.. Ben Oliver, about 75 years of
age, died Sunday at his home, near
New Hope, where he had resided for
a long number Of years. Mr.. Oliver
had suffered from severe attack
of la grippe, and this, together with
his advanced age and consequent
weak condition was the cause of his
death.
He is survived by his aged COM
panion, one son and two daughters,
the latter being Mrs. French and
Mrs. Lizzie Matheral. Mr.. Oliver
had long been leading citizen of
his community. He was upright,
honorable and conscientious in all
his dealings with his fellowman, and
his death is deeply regretted by his
friends. The body was laid to rest
on Monday at New Hope, services
by Rev. Webb Jackson.

A Royal Reception.

Please allow us space to express
our appreciation Of the very cordial
reception rendered us by the excel
lent people Of Gleason and vicinity.
On Thanksgiving morning we re-
ceived a generous donation. 1t came
in carload lot" buggy load, and
then some, and represented not only
many Methodists, but some kind
hearts Of other churches. Today the
first Christmas gift came, borne by
loving hands. So, of course, the ex-
clamation of the Psalmist seems a
fitting one for the new preacher and
his family: "Surely the lines have
fallen unto us in pleasant places;
ours is a goodly heritage"
And now, as these friends indeed,
have ministered to us in a material
way, our supreme desire is to break
to each hungering, affectionate heart
the bread Of heaven-the bread of
life.-J. C. Cason, Pastor Gleason

miles east of Gleason, received a tel
egram on Tuesday notifying him of
the death at Ell Paso, Tex, of his
son, Elkins Higgins The cause of
the young mans death is not stated.
1t is expected that the remains will
reach Gleason to day friday or

noble, upright, industrious young
man. He joined the army four years
ago, and by close application had
risen to the place of corporal of his
company. He was bright young
man, with bright future before
him, and his untimely doath is the
source of universal regret. He was
81 years of age. Another younger
brother is a member of the same
company at FL Paso. Mr.. and Mrs.
Higgins have the profound sympa-
thy of their friends.
