FATHER OF MODERN SPINNING
iishman, of Immense Importance to the Western World.

At one timee muslins were imported from India for the reason that English spinners were unable to produce yarn fine enough for the manufacture of such delicate fabrics.
 The invention of Arkwright, by which spinning with rollers was used and Hargreaves, with his spinning jenny, led the way for Crompton to combine both of those inventions in his mule, thereby enabling spinners to draw out long threads in large numbers to more tenuity than had ever been done by the East Indians.
 This invention enabled Lancashire to assume the first place as cotton spinner to the world. Samuel Cromp- ton was born December 8, 1753 at Fir wood. He came of the farming class and had rather a good education On the death of his father his mother carried on the farm and set Samuel to spinning at home. Five years after his majority he completed his mule, "his mind during that time being in continual endeavor to realize a more perfect principle of spinning"
 This he did at the expense of every shilling he had; and he gave his in- vention to the world but in such a way that he gained no credit. Years afterward his statue was erected in Bolton.--Chicago Journal.

Make Your Mind Your kIondike.

Every man has a rich mine of precious ores if he wants to work it. The other day the news went out that great oil fields had been discovered in Klondike, the land famous for gold, The papers say men are rushing to stake claims as they did in the palmy days of the gold craze, and there will be many who will part with all they have and make their way to what promises to be a quick fortune. In the last rush the way to Dawson City had many a ghastly group of bleach ing bones when the snOws of winter melted away. The chances are this present craze will duplicate the scene. Only few of the many make money. It will ever be thus as long as men try to win by chance the riches that usually come by toil.-Grit.

Fever Present in Mental Disease.

Doctor Bond in the Boston Medical Journal adds new item to medical knowledge of mental disease. In n mental patients, levers, slight or se- were, transitOry or chronic, occurred in over 50 per cent, a surprising re- suit for consecutive cases. The di- agnoses varied and show that fever occurred in imbecility, epilepsy, ar terosclerotic dementia, general par alysis, dementia praecoX and maniac depressive psychoses. Of 19 maniac depressive insanity patients, 13 had fever and 6 did not. Of 19 de- mentia praecox patients, 8 had fe- yer and II did not, this being the only disease in which normal temper atures were found more often than the reverse.

Is Little River County to be second Fl Dorado? This is the question that is being Whispered about. It is in the atmosphere that before very long wells will be going down in all sections of : the county. The real test will at least be made from all surface indications. For many years the belief has been growing that oil was here waiting de- velopment Various attempts at tests have been made which for financial and other reasons have never been made thorough. Four rigs are set up in the county today. For the past year oil men have been busy blocking out leases, Then came the showing of oil near Foreman and activity increas- ed Last week the big gusher at FL Dorado came in with rush. Since that time the state has filled up with oil men as fast as special trains and regular trains could bring them. The fever has spread. Oil men are ap- bearing more regularly in AshdoWn. The whispers increase. We hear hints of a we'll here and there. The News has run out of blank form leases and must print more Whence comes this demand? Our mail brings us inquiries almost every day from men at a dis tance asking for copies Of the News about oil and what is doing in oil here. A we'll known man in Tulsa, Oklahoma, writes his brother here saying. Little River county will be the next Fl Dor ado is the opinion here They are talking about us for some reason. An Oklahoma oil man told the editor that this would be an oil field and showed us the report of five geologists, He said, "Your structure is right" To these men dry hole is but an incident A showing of oil part of the days work. They are after the main chance and the big gamble. While a rush is on to new field and the struggle for foothold there, your true oil man keeps his eye out for the next oil field. Itfis his rainbow of promise. It means that we are going to get development if we give them the right opportunity. Giving a lease does not mean in all cases that you will get test. The lease broker will retard development. What we should demand is a real test
 It can be had by doing business with people that mean business,

A PRAYER.
Published by requesO

uUiloHSu Uy lSQuSoD Dear Lord, I am weary sure I know
 in heaven, My trials would be over, my sorrows
 would flee, But ask in your mercy to list to my
 prayer And spare this poor mortal, until Ire
 land be free! I have knelt many years, with love you beseeching, An exile from home and friends dear
 to me, My soul filled with anguish, for Ire
 land in fetters, Oh, grant I may live until Ireland is
 free. I heard your grave call, Oh, martyrs
 of Erin, And hasten to list to your pitiful plea; Aroused with the spirit of those gone
 before me, I'll fight the just battle until Ireland
 is free I've passed through the vision of hsav-
 ems enchantment, Where choirs of angels were beckon-
 ing to me, But I shrank back with fear. lest the
 scythe of the reaper Would claim my poor life ere Ireland
 is free. Oh, arise in your might, your sons and
 daughters; To reclaim our last haven across the blue sea, In our great alliance till our cries reach the heavens For I cannot go home until Ireland is free

H ' < i. .
 as gathered from every avail
 so1rce gives the Individual an 4gle from which to work out his plans for the coming year. No better slogan than Safety First" could read fly be suggested. The average Little River farmer will tell you that regard less of what others may do he is going to raise his own living and feed for his stock this year at home, and that he twill get more for 3 little cotton than a lot of 1t. Nothing new about that. It is repetitionsof history. It has been found to be safe plan in the past, and will be in tfss future if we will only follow it, to the conclusion. This plan is not goingsto iquidate the debts in one year, Far sighted farmers, bank CTS and business men generally are not expecting that it. will. They do know however, that if this. crop is made cheaply that what cotton that is grown will greatly liquidate the country next fall, and that with barns full of feed and smoke houses supplied with meat the crops of the, following year will be largely profit and the county will again be on it's feet and going strong. This is the solution without any trimmings. Our bankers inform us that the man in our midst who has in the past been content to follow that plan, who has lived largely at home, is out of debt and able to make crop unassisted. He ! was not playing for the large stakes, but was content with the sure thing.

 A statement by Chairman Fordney Sf the house ways and means committee making definite the intention of repubii- can leaders to press legislation revising the permanent tariff through the extra session before attempting consideration ef taxation questions.
 The Fordney bill was pulled out of It's pigeon hole for several hours of debate late in the day. Nothing came of 1t, 1 however, for when the session ended no definite progress had been made Senator Underwood was reticeht about his assurances of presidential veto. Hc declined 10 say whether 1t came from ths l president direct and refused to answer questions relative to the form in which l the information came.
 The statement of the minority leader | however. was the cause of speculation among senators on both sides of the emergency tAtiff question. It was gen. orally accepted that as a result of the White house attitude the democrats were more than willing to let the measure gu to a vote where all senators records could be preserved.
