Right difficult to get by without some little irritation. But the wise ones, if left, will forget it, and take up the burdens of the day again. It is not every man that can show selfmastery in defeat. But it pays so to do. The Times editor, since a member of his family has been sick in the hospitr.l here, ha3 had opportunity to see at first hand, the operation of this institution. We do not bel'.eve there a more carefully conducted institution r 1 the kind anywhere, and the treatment tccorded the petients is all that could he asked for. We do not see how tho 'ommunity managed to do without the hospital before it came. It is a great blessing to this town and ounty. HOW MAYFIELl) WAS ELECTEO Be one's opinion of the new Ku Klux Klan what it may, the Elan's preference for Earle Mayfield to James Fergusan, in the contest for United States senator in Texas, is undeniably to its credit. Ferguson was governor of Texas, but was not allowed to complete his term of office. Despite the exceeding difficulty of impeaching a governor, once he "<s elected, Ferguson's behavior was .-o offensive to decent public opinion in Texas that the legislature did impeach him. Tf the Ku Klux Klan wrs to be opposed, it was most unfortunate that Ferguson was projected < s the foremost champion of those 10 whom its principles and policies are repugnant. Mr. Mayfield's candidacy had the indorsement of the Anti-Saloon League and it is highly probable that the influence of that organization ir. his behalf was more effective than was that of the Ku Klux. Ferguson advocated amendment of the prohibition laws to permit the manufacture ana sale or light wir.e and beer. Perhaps, to most of the better people of Texas, that meant a light covering for bootlegging. A light vine and bee: platform will not command respect in a political contest in a Southern state unless its defender shall be a man above suspicion of sympathy for an J affiliation with bootleggers and moonshine distillers. Seriously as many .i good citizen might believe in modifj irg the prohibition statutes, not onewould espouse the cause with Ferguson at the head of a movement in its favor. In Texas both the Anti-Saloon League and the Ku Klux Klan hav* been in luck. Opposition to them could hardly hope for-success so long as it was connected with the candidacy of "Jim" Ferguson?nor could deserve it.?The State.

Tjte pay-m^nt of taxes h.us he*n the burden of complaints since ages before Caesars exacted their tribute and there is nothing ne*v in the query made by a negro who appealed to Judge C. C. Featherstone yesterday for advice and guidance. "Boss," he said, "I owes my taxes, and 1 knows I owes my taxes but I ain't got no money to pay my taxes. What kin I do?" Judge Featherstone could not draw on any fund of knowledge or experience for a satisfactory reply so he referred his interrogator to the county treasurer. "Whut kin I do?" is the query that disturbs many, County Treasurer R. A. Ellison declares.? Index-Journal. "Scalpers" Numerous in Japan Tokio, July 22.?There are brokers for practicaly everything in Japan, who operate as did the old "Ticket Scalpers" in America. Telephone and steamship passage brokerage are well recognized industries, and owing to the difficulty in getting telephones i istalled by the government and frequent delays in securing passages, these brokers generally do well. A new form of brokerage however, has appeared at Kobe. During an enquiring into the forging of bank oooks with which the forgers secured 160,000 yen from money lenders, it was discovered that brokers were dealing in these books. Householders Preparing to Burn Wood Instead of Coal Reading. Pa., Aug. 23-?The Berks County Conservation Association's campaign, urging throughout the county the use of timber of little marketable value to avert a possible fuel famine, has been endorsed "fc/tlTd" state department of forestry at Harrisburg. The plea of the association to Berks land owners has already borne fruit, and many householders have laid in a supply of wood. The association is posting placards throughout the county urging householders to use cord wood cut from such timber, in order to save coal for hospitals, schools, churches and industries. Harvey F. Heinly, president of the association, has received the following letter from Major R. Y. Stuart, State Commissioner of Forestry: "I think the Berks County Conservation association's plan of calling the attention of the public to the availability of suitable woods, particularly blighted chestnut, for fuel as a means of averting distress this winter, is an excellent one. The department in turn is encouraging the use of chestnut on the state forests for this purpose. I believe the cam paign will do much good, particular ly in those sections of the state wherein it is feasible to use wood a-, fuel without a change of equipment. Further, to the extent to which blighted chesirut can be utilized, the owner and forests are benefited." England Argues Against Destructive Power Of Airplanes Ixmdon, Aug. 28.?Great Britain's faith in the capital ship is unshaken. Tn the House of Commons Colonel Charles Amery, Financial Secretary of the Admiralty, declared that so far as the British Admiralty was aware, there was not in the Royal Navy nor in the navy of any other tour try, an airplane capable of sinking one of England's dreadnaughts by either bomb or torpedo.

The new premier is an expert agriculturist and never has taken an active part hi politics or attended a session of par liamsnt. Mr. Bracken is one of a company of distinguished farmers who in the last few years have risen tcr-poiitifeal prominence in Canada. Premier Dncry of Ontariq, Premier Greenfield pf A^l hertn and Premier OUrer of ftrltoebj Columbia all are farmers. Hi the l*dt Dominion election, 6t> farm am were elected out of total membership- of 285 in the federal house of commons Mr. Bracken, 39, is the youngest premier ever elected in Canada, with the exception of the late Sir Hfcbard McBride of British Columbia. He was bom on n farm in Leeds county, Ontario, and was warden of Ms county while still in his teens. He graduated from the Ontario. Agricultural College at Guelph, taking three scholarships and one efficiency medal. He was a member of the first Hvertock judging teams which won the championship at the International Livestock show in Chicago. Having supplemented his college course with post-gTaduate work ;n universities in the United States, he came to Manitoba as representative of the Dominion Seed Branch and on the formation of the province of Saskatchewan in 1905, was made superintendent of institutes and fairs and livestock commissioner. When the University of Saskatchewan was opened at Saskatoon, he was made professor of field husbandry and won international fame as an authority on dry farming. Mr. Brneken wwit from the University of Saskatchewan to the University of Manitoba as president on 1920. From this position, he was elected premier. Gas Systems Would Save Waste Tokio, July 15.?The people of Tokio, according to Baron Goto, the progressive mayor of the city, waste approximately 15,000,000 yen yearly ir fuel which mieht he saved bv the es tablishment of an up-to-date pas sys tem. This was explained by tlic mayor at the inauguration meeting of the Tokio Municipal research bureau which has been organized with a view of securing an improvement in mu. nicipal utilities., and, in the words ol the mayor, "make Tckio the mode! city of Japan.' The presont gas plants, accordinc to the mayor, are nor giving the service which the people have a right t< .demand and ho proposed that all oi them be taken over by the city. "11 anyone," said Mayor Goto, "discusser the adjustment of high prices withoul studying the volume and cost of fuo1 consumed by the people of Tokio, h< would be making the mistake of putting the cart before the horse. "According to the ' estimate nov available the people of Tokio annually consume at their homes: 17,420,00( sacks of charcoal valued a 42,600,0(K yen; 31,000,000 kwan of wood, valuec at 5,850,000 yen and producing 350,300,000,000 calories of heat; 400,00C tons of coal and 40,000 tons of coke."' This, he claimed, could be replacec by gas at a cost of 33,750,000 yer while the forests of the country woult also be saved from the charcoal burn era.
