in discussions of this character. The
closing day with the Berkley SEX
tette as entertainers and Thomas F.
Paris as lecturer made a splendid
finale to the four days program.
Paris, in the afternoon gave most
helpful talk on community life, and
indicated how much could be done
by united effort in improving mat
erial moral, and social conditions in
the smaller towns. In the evening
the lecture was stirring one the
kind of America Americans want,
and he pointed out some of the
dangers which threaten the country,
and which were so clearly indicated
during the war. The large amounts
that were spent by the German gov
ernment in its endeavor to subsidize

denounced, as it is through the free

should be guarded with fidelity, was

Walter Thomas Mills, Noted Socialist
Lecturer, Speaks for Nonpdrtisan
LEAGUE.

Walter Thomas Mills, the well
known socialist speaker and writ
er. gave lecture at the Bentley
Grand Tuesday afternoon IN sup
port of the nonpartisan league
The speaker contended that some
five great monopolies have absol-
ute control Of all the business or
the country, and that we as a
people are paying tribute to
these monopol!es, and that the
nonpartisan league is the only
force organized to combat these
monopolies and bring them into
the hands of the people. Mr..
Mills, who with Mr.. Townley and
one or two other socialist friends
have been instrumental in the en-
actment of recent North Dakota
legislation, drew very beautiful
picture of what North Dakota is
to be under the new regime. and
urged his hearers to stand by the
league, so that our own state
might share with North Dakota
the benefits to be derived from
similar legislation.
We have no doubt that Mr..
Mills is honest in his belief that
they have found remedy Tor the
social and financial ills OF life IN
the laws they have enacted IN
North Dakota. All we ask IN
South Dakota is that time be CIV
sen for this legislation to bear
fruit. If the fruit is OF a benetl-
cent character, we Of South Da-
kota will be glad to adopt similar
legislation, but if the results are
ruinous, it will be we'll for our
state that we have had no part in
it. The fact that several OF the
North Dakota state officials who
were elected on the nonpartlsan
ticket last year have already be
come frightened at the load OF
debt that is being folsted upon
the state, have come out IL open
rebellion against the system OF
legislation that was being enact
ed. However the recent referen-
DUN vote indicates that the
people of North Dakota wish to
see the thing through on the line
in which they have started, and
we are glad that this is SO. North
Dakota 5 plunge may help to save
South Dakota, if the returns
come quickly enough.
Mr.. Mills is a pleasing speaker
and he presented the socialist
side of the economic question IN
4 very attractive manner.

REMAINS OF ROMAN SHELTER
Intensely Interesting Discovery Said
to Have Been Made In the
North of England.

lady member of the Cumberland
and Westmoreland Antiquarian So
ciety of England has had the good for
tune to discover what is believed to be
a Roman bloomery, or ancient smelt-
ing furnace. Her attention was drawn
TO the place by the work Of moles,
which recently exposed some of the
remains, and again later by the burn
ing of the whins formerly concealing
the hearth and other features of the
bloomery, near Forest How.
BY some exploration with a spade,
she traced the foundations of large
hearth, twelve yards in diameter, and
a number of heaps of cinders, Stag
and ore; and she also turned up spec
linens of Roman tiles, with pottery,
Stag and hematite. The size Of the
hearth of the Forest How bloomery
marks 1t as quite different from the
ordinary north-country medieval iron
furnaces, which run from seven to
nine or ten feet In diameter, for the
1ne just found is twelve yards across.
This appears to be worth further ex-
Dloration and probably money for that
purpose will be found.

Hadn't Seemed to Work.

An oldish man in rusty-brown clothes
and with rusty-brown beard met up
with a pin. 1t was shining sharply
bright on tagging, and he stopped
to pick it up.
He had stiff joints and his fingers
were in that state informally known
as bungly. So he had trouble picking
up the pin.
young man paused to offer his
services. but the old one refused. He
just grunted and grumbled until at last
victory came his way. Then he
Strengthened up his rickety joints and
put hand on his back.
"Im not MS young as I used to be-"
he admitted, as genially as his joints
would allow. "But you know the old
saying:
See pin and let 1t lay, you'll
have bad luck all the day. See a pin
and pick 1t up and you are sure to have
good luck
so never pass one by"
And yet he didn't look as lucky as
q man ought to be who had made a
life habit of picking up pins.-Wash-

Flax In the War.

With the restoration of industry on
a peace-time basis, cotton once again,
according to recent authoritative state
ments, FORCES ahead of linen In the
worlds favor. The exigencles Of the
recent conflict raised fax to the posi-
ton as leader among fabrics, a rank
which 1t had held for centuries but had
lost almost simultaneously with the
advent OF the cotton gin. With real
ization Of the Importance of cotton in
the making of munitions, there came a
speedy reversion to linen for the
more commonplace usages--waistcoat
sails for ships, even wings" for air
planes having lately consisted of ma
terial woven from the sun-hued fiber.
But flax has reached the end of its
days Of monopoly. King Cotton now
rises to the fore In ordinary pursuits.
and linen once again becomes the
aristocrat In this field of supply.

FIND STEAMER LONG BURIED
Dredging Operations in the Mersey
Disclose Remains of Vessel That
Had Been Forgotten.

For some time past the Mersey
docks and harbor board has been con-
Quoting dredging operations in the
neighborhood OF the Burbo bank, one
of the huge accumulations of sand
which impede the navigation Of the
Mersey entrance, and these have re-
suited In a find" of remarkable In
| terest.
| II Is the remains of a steamer which
have evidently been embedded for
generations. Her date is long ante
rior to that of iron shipbuilding. OF
sound English oak were her timbers
and framing, to which circumstances
doubtless Is due the fact that they
still retain cohesion and shape, and
have so wonderfully resisted the forces
of decay as to supply an abundant
quantity of material for the souvenir
manufacturer. Her beams, In point
of fact. are described as being as
fhard as IRON"
The machinery has practically per-
ished, but the engine bed-plates and
the funnel remain, and relics of pot
terry and other articles are plentiful.
The vessel, cleared of superabundant
sand Is not only visible. but accessible
at low water, and has been visited and
examined by many interested people.
The prevailing opinion Is that she !
is the William Huskisson, paddle |
steamer belonging to the City Of Dub
lin company. and trading between Liv-
erpool and the Irish capital, which on |
the 10Th of January, 1910, was wreck
ed on her passage to the Mersey. She
had 100 passengers on board, of whom
% were rescued by the ship Hudders-
field, and the remainder persisted.
Captain Clegg of the Huddersfeld
