BUREAU AIDS ALIENS
Registration Bill Aimed to Pro-
tect Immigrant.
Legislation Urged by Secretary Davis
Is for Purpose of Protecting and
s Guiding Foreigners.

Washington, Aug. 3.-Registration
of aliens, provided for in legislation
urged by Secretary Davis, is for the
purpose of protecting and guiding the
aliens themselves, and is not designed
as a police system, says a statement
issued by the Department of Labor.
Expenditure Of the money, taken in
as fees for registration, for instruct-
ors for such foreigners as new school,
ing, is planned.
''The alien," the statement said,
docs not want anything for nothing"
and would be willing to pay the $40
fee in case of adults and So for wage
earners who are minors.
Under the proposed law the bureau
of naturalization would become the
bureau Of citizenship, and take on
vastly broadened scope of activity
1t would see that aliens We're prop
erly distributed over the country,
avoiding congestion in the cities.
Those with long experience in farm
ing would be needed in getting on the
land.
Among its other duties the new bu-
reau Of citizenship should spread
knowledge of our American institu-
tions," the statement said.
at would begin a national campaign
for lettering the physical and moral
well being of our foreign-born popula-
tion. To this end, the new bureau
would undertake to protect the for
eigner from fraud and imposition.
'srhe act before congress gives the
new bureau authority to appoint Off
GERS who shall have semijudicial
power in preliminary naturalization
hearings. This will cut much red
tape, and save time on the part Of
judges. Under the new plan, the
alien will not have to lose time from
work to await his return In court, but
may apply at any time to a federal
naturalization officer for the purpose"

GOVERNOR SMALL'S REFUSAL TO
SUBMIT TO ARREST

A grand jury in Illinois has indicted
Governor Len Small of that State fol-
an alleged ENLIGHTENMENT of hundreds
of thousands of dollars, and the Gov
ernor refuses to permit the Sheriff to
arrest him. He says as commander OF
the State Militia he will call out troops
for his protection, if a resort to force
is attempted to secure his sarrest.
The Governors position is generally
regarded as high-handed and contrary
to law, and an Illinois court has so de-
cided, but the Governor is probably
within his rights in resisting the ar
rest.
A state government consists of three
branches or divisions, the executive,
the legislative and the judicial. Each
is independent of the other, and it is
probably the duty of each to main
tain its independence.
The law provides for the impeach-
ment of governor by the legislature
and that may be the only legal way
to remove Governor Small from office.
When removed he can, OF course, be
proceeded against criminally.
The point is made that SmalPs al
legged embezzlement was committed
while he was treasurer of the State of
Illinois and before he was elected gov
ernor and that he can not be impeached
for such a crime. If that be true he
would be subject to arrest and punish
ment the same as any other wrong
doer. But the precedents seem to be
contrary to that view of the case.
Governor Sulzer of New York was
impeached for offenses committed be-
fore he took office and less closely re-
lated to his election thereto than Gov.
Small's alleged offenses appear to have
been in his case.

Material for vivisectionists.

A writer In the Baltimore American
says: ut is a rare part of mans life
which is not touched by the friendship
of dogs. Books of experience in the
World war are coming from the
presses by scores, and it is interesting
to note that practically every one Of
them has dog stories, and the theme
OF these stories is faithfulness unto
death. There is fine intelligence, too,
and the whole happy history of dog
character is enriched by new instances

Thus, this average for North Car.

$269.20, as compared with S1S3.27 fol
Ohio. For Louisiana it was $24373
as against $235.41 for Illinois, $237.3f

bama the average was $114.45 and in
Arkansas $126.29, which compare with

Altogether the tax.appears to find
the income, from whatever section OF
the country derived, and to operate
equitably. Where wealth is concen-
trated a larger aggregate will be taken
by the tax-collector, this being an in
escapable condition of the levy. But
the fallacy is pretty well disproyed
that there is any degree of sectionalism
in the income tax.

# thought in competition in business,

L II d 4 /. y y /. i ~ ! +, q 40.
Of thought in competition in business,
and the management Of vast enter
prises in these days of steam and cleo
| tricity increases the apparent demand
| for speed and mental strain. Regular,
calm systematic work does not injure,
but continuous worry and hurry de-
stroys. We need not the Bible to prove
this. Science teaches it, history tells
| it and experience and observation con-
firm it.
"The command bears evidence with
in itself that the rest enjoined is a
| physical necessity. 1t includes within
| its terms that neither thou nor thy cat
tie must do any work on that day. AS
no moral responsibility is laid upon
| the cattle it follows that the physical
law requires this rest for them. All
inanimate nature, in emphatic tones,
demands rest-their Sabbath. The
fields must have rest. The strung bow
loses it's elasticity. The stirring, push
| ing railroad men, who deny themselves
any rest, all insist that their engines
and cars shall run only certain num-
Der of miles without rest. They say,
and say truly, that continuous revolu-
ton of the axle disintegrates the iron,
causing accident, delay and loss OF
property.
Nations recognize the Importance OF
the Sabbath. Constantine, in the
fourth century, enacted law requir-
ing the observance Of the Sabbath. Our
people, who are so sensitive that each
one should be free to worship God, or
not worship him, according to the die
tates of his conscience, have placed in
our laws this requirement. And laws
nre the conclusions of people drawn
from the experience and wisdom Of
the preceding ages
IF we would read carefully and keep
the whole commandment, most OF us
would have no excuse for working on
the Sabbath. 1t reads six days shalt
thou labor and do all thy work." not
six days Of idleness with work undone,
but six days of work with work all
done. The idleness Of the first six
is as much forbidden as the labor OF
the seventh. Then the seventh is for
well earned rest, welcome rest, rest for
the hammer and the anvil, rest for
the engine and the cars, rest for the
horse and the OK, rest for the body and
the mind, rest and calm review OF
our life and its fruits.
"The laws which control the physical
world and the eternal principles OF
right which rule the moral forces
intertwine so closely and work in such
perfect harmony that we cannot sep
arate them. God in nature and God
in revelation do not, cannot be in
conflict.
"If you do not recognize the right
and authority of the Great Ruler, give
heed to the teachings of science, the
laws of nature and the lessons Of ex-
perience and from these know that
you must remember the Sabbath day
to keep it holy. And those Of us who
know in some faint degree the glo-
rious character, the matchless love and
infinite mercy of our Heavenly Father,
whose every command is given in love,
who afflicts us only for our own good,
shall not we so walk in the future that
our example may not be stumbling
block in the way of others?"

There was IN interesting session il
the district c,urt room Friday after.
noon, when County Superintendent
Jewett held The meeting with refer
ence to the ptition for dissolution Of
the district. There were fifty or more
men and women from Lamont and vi.
cinity in abundance. Attorneys Al
fred Longley, Of Waterloo, and Hu-
bert Carr O Manchester, appeared
for the dissol-ers and Attorney R. w
Hasner for the district. The county
superintendent had five days in which
to render his decision. There was
much interest manifested in the pro-
ceedings. Frilay's meeting was held
in accordance with notice published
by the county superintendent in the
Lamont Leade.
The Original petition filed few
weeks ago, asking dissolution OF tbs
consolidated district, contained 359
names. The district has $50 electors
it is said, so tlat 346 would be ma.
jority, which is required in such, cases
The dissolution petition was headed
by F. D. Macheak. This petition was
filed with the county superintendent
by Attorney Hubert Carr, OF Man
chester The consolidated district adj
herents then got busy and circulated
a remonstrance petition. Upon this
were placed .O7 names of district
electors, or Withdrawals from the orr
ginal, dissolution petition. That didn't
end it, for the dissolutioners circu-
lated a third petition, a sort OF re
monstrance to the remonstrance." Up
on this they had seventy-six names,
claimed to be names of parties who
had signed the second, remonstrance
petition and who also had signed the
original, dissolving petition. Twenty
two of these names could not be found
on the remonsrance petition, how
ever, It addition to this, this side of
the controversy filed petition sup
Elemental to their original petition
with list of thirty names of electors,
who, it was claimed, had not had OPP
portunity before to annex their names
to the original petition for dissolution
of the district. And that was not all
Friday morning at 1880 there was fl
ed with Mr.. Jewett a fourth petition.
It contained AL names, remon-
STRANGE to the original, dissolving Pc
tition, of which number 100 were said
to have signed the original petition.
This was the final petition which had
been secured for the occasion. Evil
IDENTIFY it was one continuous round Of
petition signing over there in the vi
cinity of Lamont. Some people sigh
ed all four petitions, others signed
three of them.
AS has been stated, the Lamont con-
solidated district has been in existence
for over year, the past years school
being conducted as consolidated dis
trict, the Lamont school and tenn
porary building being used. There are
forty-three sections Of land in the dis
trict. #5

petitioners and DIRECTORS having been
heard and careful review and in
yestigation of the merits and objec-
lions having been made with due re-

BAPTIST CASH FOR r. c. COLLEGE.

The Rockefeilers, father and son.
are Baptist laymen of large infiu-
ence in their denomination. And
what the Rockefeller foundation does
never can be divorced from the spirit
and purposes Of the Rockefellers so

Bearing these suggestions in mind,
the allotment OF 100000 by the foun-
dalton to Columbia college, Dubuque,
Iowa, a Roman Catholic institution in
charge Of priests under the archdio-
cese of Dubuque, becomes an epochal
incident in the gradual development of
religious tolerance, in the gradual
elimination of the centuries old dis
trust of Protestants by Catholics and
of Catholics by Professionals.

WHY 1T RAINED NEARLY "a HOURS
LAST MONDAY

Early last Monday morning it com
menced to rain and rained contin
uously for upwards of twenty-foul
hours. 1t was rainfall that extend
. ed over several states and was of in
estimable value
Why did it rain last Monday?
What kept it from raining during
the greater part OF last month?
There are bright prospects for the
young boys and girls who are asking
these and similar questions, because
they are children of observing men
tally, children possessed of curiosity
and desire to learn the mysteries
connected with the things they see and
feel and sense in any way.
Briefly stated this is the mystery OF
rain:
One-fifth of the air we breath and
one-third by volume but not by weight
of the water we drink is oxygen. From
this it can be readily understood that
there is a reasonably close relation
ship between air and water, rela-
tionship which is increased or dimin-
ished by temperature. Cold air will
not carry or contain anything like as
much water as warm air. A cubic
yard of air at the freezing point con-
tains only So grains of water, but
when heated to the temperature OF
boiling water, it contains more than
II pounds Of water.
The rays of the sun vaporize the
moisture on the surface Of the earth
and it mixes with the air, and as
long as the air remains warm it holds
this moisture and keeps it from fall
ing. When the temperature reaches
Sc degrees, Fahrenheit scale, a cubic
yard of air contains 1862 grains OF
water, or more than six times as much
as it does at 80 degrees, the, freezing
point.
It rained last Monday because there
was fall in the temperature of about
20 degrees. At the temperature which
prevailed last Sunday night and Mon
day the air could not hold the load Of
moisture it was carrying and it fell
to the earth in bountiful quantities.
That is why it rained last Monday. 1t
sometimes rains when there is no
change of temperature at the earth's
surface, but a breeze of cool air up
in the blue sky brings down a shower
of rain drops And the heat waves
rising from a body Of timber are
cool lin comparison with those which
rise from bare fields and that some
times produces rain.
It did not rain much during the last
long month OF July, because the air
was so abnornally hot that it easily.
carried all the moisture that the sun
drew up from the earth.
