From The TrSbunes Washington Bureov
WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-Two speak
ers at to-da US session of the Interna-
tional Congress Against Alcoholism at
tackled the National Prohibition party
as futile and an invitation to drys to
waste their votes. The attacks were
made by DR.. Harvey W. Wiley, chemist
and pure, food expert, and Dr.. p. A.
Baker, general superintendent Of the
Anti-Saloon League of America.
DR.. Aaron S. Watkins, the Prohibi-
ton candidate for President, went to
the defense Of the action of the party
i'll putting national ticket in the field.
10 meet the objections, he offered to
withdraw from the race for the Presi-
dency if the other candidates would
give emphatic dry pledges
DR.. WiIey's Views
DR.. Wiley described what he termed
the futility Of voting the straight Re-
publican ticket in the United States.
Or. Wiley's subject was "The Proposal
for Beer and Light Wines in the United
States from the Economic and Political
Viewpoints" His idea of continuing
prohibition in the United States YVES to

major parties who were known to he

own conscience" Dr. Wiley responded.
Obliteration Of the National Prohi-
bitIon party al so was favored by DR..
Baker, who spoke of the political AS
pect Of the Prohibition Movement in
America" Dr.. Bakers argument was
devoted almost wholly to the thought
that unless the voters Of the country
elected dry mer and women to public
office, prohibition would not continue.
He frankly urged the abandonment of
the National Prohibition party and
asked support for members of both
major parties who are known to be
dry.
Then came the offer by DR.. Watkins.
IF the other six candidates will
pledge themselves emphatically dry,
will withdraw" he said. "If proper
pledges are made before this congress
comes to an end, shall gladly with
draw from the race"
Michael ]. Tanning. Of Philadelphia,
made an appeal for a continuation of
the Prohibition party, if for no other
purpose than to require pledges from
other candidates. THAT man who re-
fuses to declare against the saloon be-
fore election" Tanning said, will be

Point Out Beer and Wine Dangers

The danger Of beer and wine drink
ing was pointed out in most of the
scientific papers read at to-day's meet
ing. A paper prepared by DR.. A. Ho-
FISCHER, of Germany, said it would be
an error to charge that strong spirits
were the sole cause of criminality.
Bavaria, he said, "a beer country, if
there ever was a beer country" had

 In 1774 he was busted from office by the king for his very much pro nouneed rebel" sympathies. but he was not jobless long. The continental congress knew, perhaps from past ob- servation, that the services of a pos tai chief were necessary, and he was appointed by them in that capacity the next July.
 It was not until July, 1851, that the first of the higher value stamps came out.
 In the early days of the postage stamp fewer letters were written than today. In those days one stamp rep resented the postal requirements of twenty people, and today (taking into consideration the jump in populationl 454 stamps are required for every man, woman and child in this country, according to the most recent Post office department statistics.

Autograph Hunters Coup.

Autograph hunting sometimes proves a most profitable pursuit. Lud- ovic Picard, a French Bohemian of the '50s, made steady income out of it for several years.
 One of his most successful coups was accomplished with letter in which he posed as "a member of the unhappy race of the unappreciated who is meditating suicide and seeks for counsel and aid in this hour of sore distress"
 This drew number of celebrities, including Beranger and Heine. Lacor- daire sent him ten closely written pages, which were promptly converted into cash.
 Dickens also fell a victim of his wiles and took the trouble to answer him in French. Eventually Picard was shown up in the press by Jules San deau and had to seek another occupa- ton.

 She read it and had difficulty to re main wholly composed. She arose and went to her husband, taking one of his hands and putting an arm about his shoulders. Then she kissed him and stood moment before the fire before she trusted herself to come back to the table.
 When the dinner was done and the covers were removed, more wine was brought in. A large Christmas tree was lighted and all the servants were called. Each found valuable present in the tree; each had punch from the great bowl, and each coming to shake Mir. Sidney's hand, was given by Jed m envelope which, I learned after ward, contained a hundred-dollar bill.
 There was no constraint and no awkwardness such as might mark such proceedings; the people of the house knew MT. Sidney too we'll One of the maids kissed him, and then we had them all doing it.
 I was fearful that the excitement would injure him, but he was placid, smiling and happy. When we were alone, We sat an hour by the fire, and then dismissed every one peremptor- fly.
 Jed, who had been about his. duties, returned. The fire was tended. An other bottle of wine was ordered. I had my last look at Mr. Sidney alive as I stood by the door giving Jed his final instructions for the night.
 Jed sat in the armchair. All the lights except one by Jed's chair had been extinguished The Persian cat was stretched by Mir. Sidney's side The canaries were asleep perehed on the head of his bed The fire was glowing.
 "Good night, Mir. Sidney" I said. Good night, Jed. A pleasant eve hing"
 "Good night doctor" said MT. Sid ney. Just minute, boy. Come here"

CHAPTER XVI.

I shall not pretend to give more than an idea of the manuscript 1 read there by the fire that night. It was narrative and reflection and contained the story of the life of Arthur Dobson, known to me heretofore as Mir. Sid ney. shall give extracts from it:
 "A family IS an odious imposition of cruel conyentionalities upon indi- viduals who, accepting conventions, however odious and cruel, are helpless. The bond of blood is one no animal (animals being rationalistic) tOlerates, even recognizes, but it is imposed up- on human beings, who find that the most antagonistic natures must rec oncile themselves to an arbitrary rule of life which can come only to hide ousness.
 ''There were in our family two chill dren, my brother Richard and myself. Our parents were the ordinary folk who marry and have a family. My father was an uncommunicative man, whether from a habit of silence or a lack of anything to say, I do net know.
 My mother, as I recall her, was gentle but imagine, futile. I think if she had had a chance of establish ing a personality my silent, glum fa- ther had destroyed it.
 Richard was my elder by two years. My father was wealthy, very wealthy, and Richard and I were not disciplined as to money. My father was not pc nurious but I never knew a man who obtained so little good of his money. He had no social instincts; he had no joviality.
 "He fixed occasional ostentation-a petty form of vanity and egotism. I regarded him. or my memory of him, as wholly detestable "a sentiment which will offend the sentimentally conventional, or the eonventionally sen timental. I know he was the last man I would have chosen as a father.

a shock. Something's the matttr with my world It is not so bold or conh- dent
 What I'm getting at is this" He held up the manuscript. This is Mir. Sidney's diary. I have talked to Mrs. Sidney. She thinks, as I think, that you should read it. You'll probably want to confirm what l say. You'll have to ask Mrs. Sidney. I know you are itching to read it. I also know that if one of your scrupes inter- vened, you'd let your itch go unscratch- ed. But this is what l came in for, and here's the manuscript.
 You understand that in giving it to you I surrender unconditionally. I know 1t. but I want friends. The only one had is dead; I must make other ones"
 T,ie extraordinary fellow shook my hand, left the manuscript in my lap and went out, a more pathetic figure of sorrow than I ever expected to see in Jed.
 I went at once to Mrs. Sidney. Jed, said, had left the diary with me.

Farm Tenantry Increases in Middle West

E INCREASE in farm tenantry which \ has become an issue In Kansas does not appear uniform throughout the Central West, according to reports re- ceived in Washington from a number of agricultural authorities. While the majority of the several states heard from report an advance, Wisconsin notes no change and Oklahoma de- clares a decrease. Illinois, Minnesota, Nebraska and Ohio show increases The situation in the various states named is thus indicated
 Farm tenantry in Oklahoma has shown a decrease of T per cent during the ten years since 1910 according to figures from each county compiled by H. H. Shutz, federal statistician for the state. In 1910, farm owners made up 45 per cent of the tillers of the soil, and renters 55 per cent
 "The percentage of rented farms has increased somewhat in the south ern half of Wisconsin," Josepb A Becker, agricultural statistician at Madison, Wis, writes. However tba large number of new farms being opened up in the northern part of the state practically all of which are on- erated by owners, has more than kent up the percentage of owned farms"

First Postage Stamps in the United State,

CEVENTY- THREE years ago this O year the first United States postage stamp was placed on sale for the benefit and convenience of the letter. writing public of New York city. In these three score and thirteen years the postofice has issued 475 types of postage stamps, ranging in value from 1 cent to $5. The first postage stamp, a 5-cent one. was authorized by act of congress March 8, 1847, and is known to have been issued in five col ors-dark and light sable, red, brown and orange red We are told, too, that 3,712,00O were issued in three years. They were recalled June 30 1851. The design shows a three-qUar- ter-to-the-left portrait of Benjamin Franklin, over which are the words Postofftce and the letters U. S. in the upper corners, one in each Below, 5 cents 5.
 It seems fitting that our first post master general should have first place on the stamps of this country. That he was father of American postal serv- ice is agreed In 1737 Franklin was made postmaster of Philadelphia, and 16 years later, from the hands of the then king of England, received the commission of deputy postmaster general for the American colonies with the yearly salary of $3,000 Sew en years later, 176O, he startled our quiet forefathers by announcing and putting into operation a weekly mail between Philadelnhia and his native
