OBSERVATIONS OF
DITOI'S
In a dinner speech before the Thomas Jefferson Memorial Association at
Washington, April 13th, Mr. William Jennings Bryan said some pleasing
Jefferson for Newspapers concernin Jefferson and the press! He
reoi ted Jefferson's high regard for the press and
his confidence in the press to give the truth. Mr. Bryan said : "So great
was Lis (Jefferson's) faith in the triumph of truth, and so willing was he to
have error presented if truth could only be left free to combat it, that he was
opposed to censorship of the press, and I believe he. gave expression to the
strongest eulogy of the press that any statesman has ever ottered, when he
said that If he must choose between a government without newspapers and
newspapers without a government, he would prefer to risk the newspapers
' without a goyernment. He said that public opinion would measurably
correct things if public opinion was left free ; but that a government with
out the free expression of public opinion would soon become a despotism.''
The bank official Sims, who stole $94,000 from an Atlanta bank with
which to keep up his fine dairy farm has beer sentenced to six yers in
Only Six Years. the P8nitentiarv- Here's a httle spat about the
matter between the Raleigh Times and the
Greenville Reflector : The Times says : "The State of Georgia, like the
State of Worth Carolina, has a governor, with a good heart, as well as a big
brain. He is capable of making just discrimination in the matter of par
dons, as well as in other things, and go we leel sure this young man will
receive just treatment on the part of Governor Terrell and. the pardoning
board of Georgia." Tbe Greenville Reflector replies to the Times as fol
lows : "Just treatment in this case can be nothing else than a full sentence
being served by this young criminal. The people he robbed may not be
'well bred,' as the Times says Sims is, but they didu't steal their savings.
To suggest that Sims be pardoned, even after serving all but one hour, of
bis sentence, is maudlin sentiment, and nothing else."
Seldom does one read of a more appalling disaster than that which oc
curred a week ago at Turtle Mountain, near Frank in British Columbia.

Tons of rock were hurled down upon houses which were crashed like egg
shells. The debris dammed Old Man riyer which runs through the town

work. Th Cfcarlotto Obeer-ror psmti-apkscl ou tlto 'fiicootc - ma luiiOWt) I"'"
"Was there ever In the past history of horrors such an accident as that at
the little village of Frank in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies? At a
midnight hour thousands of tons of rock caused by a fissure in an over
hanging mountain are hurled upon the town, crushing houses like egg
shells and grinding to powder their sleeping inmates. Not content with
this havoc, the accident is intensified by the damming up of the river that
flowed through the town, thus placed in jeopardy of a Johnstown disaster.
And yet again, part of the mass of earth from the mountain top fell upon
the mouth of the shaft of a mine, entombing a number of miners who had
to dig their way out, which they were fortunately able to do, for aid could
not reach them from the surface. Rock-slide, flood, mine-entombment
all in one ! A triple disaster that breaks the record."
The Commoner gives a sketch of Chief Justice Waiter Clark and of his
literary work it says : "Judge Clark has written or edited over six volumes,
most of them

larged. Also 'Laws for Business Men 'Clark's Overruled Cases, and an ar
ticle of 1,100 pages 'Appeal and " Error' in the Cyclopedia of Law which
Northern law journals have pronounced the most complete treatise ever
written on that subject. Besides he has annotated 32 volumes of the Su
preme Court reports, which have been issued by the State, thus bringing
each case down to date. This has been an invaluable work, especially to
the young lawyers who otherwise could not have obtained these reports
which were out of print. He also compiled the legal history of the two
railroads of which he was counsel and director. His share in the Supreme
Court reports since he has been on the bench would fill seven or eight vol
umes alone. He. has translated out of the French 'Constant's Private
Memoirs of Napoleon,' three volumes (illustrated). As is well known be
has edited without compensation of any kind five volumes 'Regimental
Histories of North Carolina,' and eleven volumes of 'State Records,' and
has two more volumes of the latter in press or preparation. He has been a
contributor to Harper's, North American Review, Arena and other leading
magazines.' His magazine articles and published speeches would fill two or
three large volumes. He has addressed the State Bar Association of Tenn
essee, the National Association of Railroad Commissioners at Denver, Col.,
and the State Bar Association at Topeka, Kan.

Advantage of Ccontry Training for
"'Boys.
President Eliot. ;"
When a child grows up in the coun
try, it gets a natural training in ac
curate observation. It wants to find a
four leaf clover ; it runs to see where
the green snake went to ; tracks the
wood-chuck to its hole and gets it out ;
it learna the sqrjgs of the birds, and
when the smelts run up the brooks and
when the twilight is just right for find
ing the 'partridges. In short, the
country child geia naturally a broad
training In observation. It also has
the farm as an admirable training in 1
manual labor. From an early "age it
can actually eon tbute to the care oi
animals, the successful conduct of the
household, and the general welfare of
the family. In the city all this natur
al training is lacking, and substitutes
for it have to be artificially provided.
This necessity has brought into our
schools natural-study and manual train
ing, to teach the child to use its eyes
and its hands, and to develop its senses
and its muscular powers; and these
new beneficent agencies in education,
j already well in play, are in the near
(future to co far bevond anv sta&re at
present reached.? Wa do not yet tee
how to replace in urban education the
training which too farmer's boy or the
seacoast boy gets from his habitual
contest with the adverse forces of na
ture. The Gotta Island boy, on the
coa3t of Maineoes out with his father
in the early winter morning in a half
open sailboat to visat their lobster traps
and bring home the entrapped lobsters.
They start with a gentle breeze and a
quiet sea, though tthe temperature is
low. The boy knrs bow to steer the
boat five or six ! to 3ea, where the
traps are sunk Oii some rocky spot
wh ich the lobsters love. The father is
busy pulling the traps. The boy
watches the weattu, and suddenly he
says, "ather, them is a northwester
coming. See the, elouds driving this
way over the hills," The boy knows
just as well as tl.-3 father what that
means. It mean a fearful beat of

freezing to the sails and ropes and
loading down the bow with ice. It
means a me-and-death struggle for
hours, the question being, shall we get
into harbor or not before we sink ?
Now, that is a magnificent training
for a boy, and the sheltered city offers
nothing like it. The adverse forces of
nature, if not so formidable that men
cannot cope with them, are strenuous
teachers; but in modern cities we
hardly know that the wind blows, or
that the flood is coming, or that bitter
cold is imperiling all animal life.
The Position or a College President.
From "Milking a Choice of a Profession," in the
May Cosmopolitan.
A successful college president to-day
occupies one of the most enviable posi
tions in American society. A trusted
specialist id an American college is not
only assured of a respectful hearing
when he writes or speaks, bnt he is
frequently called to the seat of the
state and national government for ad
vice by governor, legislative of con
gressional committee, and also by the
President of the United States. Dur
ing the past twenty-five years, the sal
ary of superior teachers in the service
of the state has been nearly doubled.
In the case of the higher positions in
many of our municipalities, practically
a lire-tenure nas been estabiisnea.
The salaries of not a few secondary
school masters now equal, and in many
cases exceed, those oi the judges of our
state and federal courts. The supreme
ly desirable college professorships catry
incomes equal to, and exceeding those
of, a large proportion of the members
of the medical and legal professions.
Presidential salaries in our colleges
and universities have been advanced
to as much as fitteen thousand dollars
a year.. Looking at the remaining con
sideration, it may be said that the social
standing and influence of members of
the teaching-profession have advanced
more rapidly than has been the case in
any of the other careers to which edu
cated men devote themselves.- Reflec
tion and observation along this line
present facts suggestive of a revolution
not only in our social life but also in
our religions life.

THE SMELL OF FLOWERS
JUST WHAT SHE NEEDED
. ' M
In the Nick of Time.
Youth's Companion. -
Mary Searle was, as she would have
said, "at the end of the rope." It was
May on the Western ranch. It had
been a long, bard winter. Mary's three
babies had been happy and well, but
what active fset and bands and tongues
they had, and how "mother" was called
on every waking minute, no one bat
"mother" knew.
Now, with the coming of spring, she
had been seized with that desperate
homesickness which comes to the New
Eugland girl on tbe vast prairies,
She loathed the flat expanse of treeless
plain. She hated the thought of the
great droves of cattle. She .dreaded
the faces of the rough ranchmen who
must be fed and housed for the work
of the great farm. With a hungry
longing she longed for the sight of
mountain j, of pines, of flowing water
and of the little village street ; for the
sound of women's voices, and for all
tbe pleasant social interests in life in
the home of her childhood.
She had ceased to sleep well. Eyery
bit of her will-power was needed to re
strain her from some wild and desper
ate deed she scarcely knew what. Of
course a good cry would do her good,
but she seemed to have forgotten how
to cry. Then Tom was too busy even
to know that anything was tbe matter.
Would he care, if he did know? Was
he . not all wrapped up in the spring
work and tbe prospect of making "big
money" this year?
This was the situation on Saturday,
the first day of May and it was full ol
peril, as any doctor would have known
if he had looked at Mary Searle's tense
face, and the dilated pupils of her eyes,
and heard tbe strained tones of her
voice.
When Tom came home that night
be brought a packet of mail. He be
lieved in keeping up with the times,
and there were papers and magazines,
and there were sure to b. lettm iram
the old home.' Mary took up the
bundle indifferently. Her mother's
letter lay on. top, and she opened it.
She glanced over the pages oi family
news, hardly knowing what she read.
Sbe came to the last leaf.
"I 2m sending you," sbe read, "by
this mail a little box of arbutus. I
hope it will do you good, dear. I'm
sure it will. How I wished you were
with me as I picked tbe blossoms this
afternoon ! Not a glimmer of sun
shine had they ever seen till I lifted
them out of the.r gloomy, chilly
caverns of snow and dead leaves. I
never gather them without wondering
if tbe Pilgrims found them at Plymouth
in the spring after that terrible winter,
and if they plucked heart and courage
with tbe fragrant blossoms.
- "They are tbe very flowers for the
pioneer; and I am sending them to
you, my daughter, with a prayer that
you may not falter, as you do in your
own place the same pioneer work to
which the early settlers in New Eng
land were called."
As Mary read, her aching heart
eemed to rise into her throat. She
snatched the box, broke the ' string
and raised the cover. The poignant,
delicious fragrance of tbe Mayflowers
met her. She buried her face in the
delicate bloom, and in another instant
soL'3 shook her and the welcome tears
poured down her face.
Tom found her fo ten minutes later,
aud his "Why, little woman 1" was
very tender, as be gathered her into
his arms. He bad the whole story
then, and he blamed birr self, and he
praised her, and he petted her, and he
laid plans lor tbe future ab in one
breath. Was it the familiar fragrance
ot tbe Mayflowers that brought tbe
tears to bis eyes?
At all events, the crisis was past at
the rancb, and Mary told tbe exact truth
when she wrote her mother, "The
lovely Mayflowers came safely on the
first of May in the nick of tipn !"

A Tribute to "Dai"
Kansas City Journal.
The editor of tbe Stevens County
Reveille has eot tired of hearing moth
er praued and dad neglected, and has
scratched off a few lines of glowing
tribute to dad. "We happened in a
home tbe other night," he says, "and
saw tbe legend worked in letters of
red, 'What is home without a mothei ?'
Across tne room was another brief,
'God bless our home.'
-iiuit, nusn.iuo uiawei wait UUU
bless our. dad?' He gets up early,
lights the fire, boils an egg, grabs his
dinner pail and wipes off tLe dew of
the dawn with his boots while many a
mother is sleeping. He makes the
weekly hand-out for the butcher, the
grocer, the milkman and baker, and
his little pile is badly worn before he
has Leen home an hour. He stands
off the baiMff and keeps tbe rent
paid up.
"If there is a noise during tbe night
dad is kicked in the back ai d made to
go down stairs to find the burglar and
kill bim. Mother darns the socks, but
dad bought tbe socks in tbe first place
and the needles and tho yarn after
ward. Mother does up tbe fruit ; well,
dad bought it all, and jars and mar
cost like the mischief. Dad buys
chickens for Sunday dinner, caives
them himself and draws tbe neck from
the ruins after everyone el-e is served.
'What is home without a mother?'
Yes, that is all right, but what is home
without a father? Ten chances to one
it is a boarding bouse, father is under
the slab and tbe landlady is the widow.
Dad, here's to you ; jou've got your
faulte you may have lota of 'em
but you're all right, and we n ill miss
you when you're gone."
