Anyway, Miss Willard took her
grievance to the Prohibition party.
The Prohibition party offered the
nomination for president to st. John,
with William Daniel of Maryland for
vice president. st. John accepted the
nomination. He was an effective
speaker and campaigner and he went
out after blood-and especially Re
publican blood. He. carried the war
into New York, considered doubt
full" state in the exciting struggle of
that campaign between james G..
Blaine and Grover Cleveland.
st. John jumped the Prohibition vote
from 1896 votes to 150,626 votes.
What is more, he polled enough votes
in New York to defeat the "Plumed
knight" in that state and, as it
turned out. in the nation. The feel
ing of the time is indicated by the
fact that st. John was burned In
efiigy in more than 100 cities.

NOBODY TO BLAME
FOR Boys Death
DR.. BOND THINKS

Harry Castator, IA years old. died
Thursday night at Reid hospital, the
victim of an automobile accident The
boy, playing at Sixteenth and Main
streets, was struck by an automobile.
The machine, an electric, driven by
Houston Marlatt, of the Chenoweth
Auto company, passed over his body,
crushing his chest and fracturing his
skull.
Intent upon his play, the boy did
not hear the approaching car until too
late, say spectators. He was rushed
to the hospital, but died soon after
reaching there. Marlatt reported to
the police, but was exonerated by
Chief Gormon and the prosecuting at
torney.
Coroner S. Edgar Bond said Friday
morning that in his report no blame
would attach to Marlatt as far as he
could tell now.
1t is evident that he was driving
very slowly, and that he could hardly
have avoided striking the boy.
Coroner Bond said the cause of the
boys death was internal bleeding fol
lowing the crushing of his chest.
Castator is the only son of Mrs. Cas-
tator, 10 South Twenty-first street.
His father died last winter during the
| influenza epidemic. One sister, Susan
| Castator is the only other member of

Where Works Awaits Him.

prosperity prevail among them"

lessness" was found. Negro workers
in the sawmill districts were reported
happy and contented.
Many of the far laborers were
found to be working on the share
system. Negroes having no capital,
teams or implements are equipped by
the land owner, receiving usually, a
half Of the crop they produce, while
those with teams and implements are
given twO-thtrd8.

Parents With Daughters
are Lucky in Spite of
Supposed to be Proverb
CLOS Angeles Times)

There is a supposed-to-be proverb in
some language or other to the effect
taht no man who was the father Of
family Of girls was ever a great man.
We don't see what that has got to
do with it. The main thing Is that
man be a father, whether 1t be boys
Of girls that compose his family. But,
leaving the father out Of 1t altogether,
it is certain that she is lucky moth
er whose children are all girls. And
we will tell you why
When the children Of family grow
up they naturally marry, and if these
children are boys then the mother Of
the boys is due TO have daughters-in-
law. So, nine times out Of ten. trouble
is ahead. For, it is proverbial that
women fail to get along pleasantly
with their husbands mothers.
We suppose it is all based on the
theory that there was never yet a
house big enough for two women.
But when mother acquires a SON.
in law, the husband of her daughter,
| then she may, as a rule, congratulate
herself. For its is also proverbial that
men are fond of the mothers of their
wives.
You see, woman can always agree

daughter has been trained to her own
ways. She can boss her own daughter
around, but she can't boss another
woman's daughter. And that's the
point to the whole thing.
We can't think of any woman so
much to be envied as the woman who
! has. say, six son-in-law, all fighting
| to have her come and make her home

1KAXE
Community Laundry
as Practical as a
Creamery
Rv p G. HOLDEN.

TT is hard to imagine what would
be the effect on dairy farming II
every creamery should suddenly
cease operations. Certainly ono or
the results would be a rapid and
serious reduction In the number OF
dairy cattle on our farms.
The day when every farmer
churned all his cream is past. We
have found it much more economical
and profitable to operate q cream
separator instead of a Churn and sell
our cream to the neighboring cream
cry. To go back to the old method
would be decidedly inconvenient. 1t
would be decidedly expensive. 1t
would entirely demoralize oil our
present and efficient methods of con-
Quoting dairy farms. 1t would make
the successful operation of large
dairy farm impossible unless we
were willing to build and operate our
own creamery at an expense which
would prove too heavy for many OF
US.
Community Laundry Essential.
A community laundry is almost as
essential as a community creamery.
Why should Blue Monday" have
a place on the calendar of the farm
er's wife2 Why should mother be
compelled to suffer all the hardships
and Inconvenience Of doing the
family washing? A community
laundry can do it better than she can
do it. If we take into account her
time and the danger to her health, a
community laundry can do 1t
cheaper.
A community laundry is as prac-
teal as community creamery. For
seven years such a laundry has been
in successful operation at Chattield,
MINI.
An addition was built to the
creamery at Chatfeld and a COM
munity laundry association organ
lied with capital stock of $4,000,
The stock sold at s. a share. The
equipment cost $4,000. The only adj
ditional help needed was a superin
tendeut, q foreman, five or six girls
and a deliveryman.
Send Washing With Cream.
Farmers wives send in their fam
lily washings along with their cream.
1t is returned along with the empty
cream cans. Town work is collected
and delivered in the usual way.
Farmers have their family wash
ing done for cents pound. Town
people pay 10 per cent more for de-
livery. About 200 families patron
lie the laundry each month. Fully
half are farmers. The average cost
of each family washing is S1.37.
The plan has worked most succesc
fully. 1t has made house work light
er for the farmers wife. 1t has
made farm life more pleasant. il
has done much to keep girls on the
farm.
What the Chatfeld community has
done other communities can do.
