Breach Between the Machine Republicans
and Insurgents
GETS WIDER THAN EVER
Tito Insurgents Are Defiant, aiul It
Ik Believed That the First Contest
Will Coine With the Selection
of Committee to Probe Hallinger-Pi
nchot Kmbroglio.

already broad breach between the
"organization" of the house of rep
rescntatives and the Republican insurgents
was widened perceptibly
Monday. Monday night thero was
every evidence that mutually hostile
acts of the past few days would
continue with increasing bitterness.
All day the insurgents caucussed
in little groups of twos, threes and
fours on the house iloor, in the
cloak rooms and the members lobby,
discussing tlie situation and debating
the desirability of an early
meeting to form a battle front to
meet the onslaughts that are reported
to be coming from the organization.
Much secrecy was observed
among them. No one would say
when a formal meeting will be
held.
It became known Monday that
the party caucus will he invoked
against the insurgents, and on every
occasion when there are differencebetween
the Republican members
that insurgents will be made to follow
the program or bo forced out
side the pale of the party.
The announcement did not dis
concert the recalcitrant Representatives.
They were free in their
expressed opinions that no compulsory
measures would avail anything
to the organization. If the test of
regularity lies in following the "machine"
as several denominated it,
they said they preferred to be irregular.
The first battle will occur, it is
believed, over the selection of the
committee by the house to investigate
the Rallinger-IMnchot onibro
glio. which is several days in the
future. The house Republicans
doubtless will hold a caucus to
name a committee and map out a
program, and here the insurgents,
it is predicted, "fish or cut bait."
A dozen insurgents said privately
that they would not attend any canons
where they knew there was a
(pro-arranged plan to discredit them.
Representative Underwood, speaking
for the Democrats of the house,
said the minority would probably
hold a caucus also on the BallingerPinchot
inquisition. There is a
prospect of a joint Democratic-Republican
insurgent committee being
named to oppose the committee being
named to oppose the committee
of the regular Republicans, which
would bring a test battle on the
floor.
"We are like the outside nine,"
said Mr. Underwood, "waiting tc
3ee which way tho ball is going to
be batted. We can't play until they
hit something In our direction.' '
The letter issued by the Republican
congressional committee,
Which had the effect of throwing a
few bricks into the insurgent camp,
came from the "literary bureav,
maintained by that organization. It
was stated that tho congressional
committee did not exist as a body
at this time and therefore was not
responsible.
Representative McKinley, of Illinois,
chairman of the committee, admitted
there was virtually no committee
in existance now, hut he himself
assumed responsibility for the
letter. It was sent out, ho said
under his guidance from tho Repub
lican headquarters In Washington
as part of the regular "weekly news
letter."

WANTS TO QUIT

)ld Man Joe Cannon About Ready to
Surrender Speakership.
HAS BEEN WHIPPED OUT
Division iu His Party's Hanks and
the Ordeal to Which He is Daily
Sub joe ted Are Alleged to Have
<toused Hiiu to Prepare to Step
Down and Out.
The Washington correspondent of
The News and Courier says it is reported
that Speaker Cannon, no
longer aide to stand the division
in his own ranks, and the terrible
ordeal that he is daily forced to
moot, has resigned as speaker of tie*
national house of representatives.
Lint this he is denying to those who
make inquiry. it would surprise
no one were he to take such acion
at any moment.
The situation in the house, and as
t matter of fact, with Republicans
hroughout the entire country, is
nave. They may be able to pull
hemselves together, and do business,
but they will have to do it
luiekly. IS very day of wrangling
idds to their dilliculties, and to the
topo of the Democrats. A family l
ow, of the biggest dimensions, and
>f all possible varieites, is on among
lie Republicans in congress, both
lonse and senate.
The situation as it stands now in
he house is summed up by a Washngton
paper as follows: "As mat
er stands today, can it ho said that,
he Republicans are in control of
he house? It is not within the
tower of the Insurgents to defeat the
najority of their party at will .prodding
only thero is capital in their
larticular attitude for the Domo:rat.
Naturally, the Democrats are
eady to help. They will respond
or a conference any time, day or
ngnr, ami have goods to deliver,
heir only stipulation being that the
illiiinco shall carry something for
lvem. And, of course, every move
calculated to emharras and dlscred
t the speaker and his friends is. If
inccessful, so much to the good for
VIr. Clark and his friends. Tho in
mrgents are so many mill hoys delverlng
grist to the firm of ClarK
t Co. They are the later 'Mill
toys of the Slashes," slashing their
inrty at every turn."
If Mr. Cannon has not, in reality,
ilready placed his resignation In the
lands of the proper parties to h?
iccepted unless conditions materialy
change at once for the better, It
s almost certain, according to what
s being said In Washington, that
mch action will he taken before the
present dissension on the Republican
side of the house and in tho
ionato has gone much further.
The end of Cannonism appears to
lie in sight, unless the Republicans
get together.
MOUNTAIN MO VMS ON VILLAGE.
Terror Exists Among Uesuients of
Swiss Hamlet.
The Voirons Mountain, 4,875 feet
high, in the Savoy Alps, situated near
the Lake of Geneva, is threatening
the village of Machilly with destruction.
The northern foce of the
mountain is moving downward toward
the village, which lies at its
foot.
Great terror exists among the inhabitants
of Machilly, and those
occupying houses nearest the moving
mass have fled from their dwellings,
fearing that the avalanche vx ill
suddenly increase in force and overwhelm
them.
The French authorities are trying
to divert the course of the advancing
landslide from the village toward
a ravine, and all the villagers
are assisting a detachment of troops
to this end.
It is thought that a simil iake
has formed in the Voirons, an.I that
the water is forcing out Lh? side
of the mountain. A similar phenomenon
occurred in 1802 above St
Oorvais-les-Bains, when a largo portion
of that resort was destroyed bj
tho sudden advance of a porion o
a mountain. *

ONE GREAT NEED
Makes Strong Plea for the Establishment
Over the States of
SCHOOLS FOR FARMERS
Dr. Knnpp, of tho I'uited States !><
purtmont of Agriculture, Point*
out mo uriMU \ aiu ? '? mo naoi?
Country by tlio lv?tablLshmeiit of
Such Institutions.
In 1111 address at Greenville on
Wednesday Dr. Seaman A. Knapp.
of the department of agriculture
made u strong plea for the establishment
of farm training schools to
supplement the State agricultural
colleges. The resultant benefit to
the community and the country at
large would be immense, Dr. Knapp
pointed out, because of the Increased
production of food supplies and
the bettor condition of those who
produced the nation's food.
"At the last census," said Dr.
Knapp, "there were 2,000,000 rented
farms and 10,.">00,000 laborers on
all the farms of the United States.
What per cent of the rented farms
were well farmed and what per cent
of the 1 0,5 00,000 farmers were really
good farmers? Possibly 1 per
con t and 5 per cent were fairly
good; 9-1 per cent get from one-half
to one fourth of what they should
obtain from the soil. This los*
must not bo regarded as ndivldu?l;
it Is a loss to the State, to the community.
What does this Statu pro
poso to do about it?
The speaker declared the masses
must bo divided into two classes?
those who could afford to attend a
school of some kind and thoso who
could not leave homo to obtain an
uuucuiiou ami who, uuTciore, must
got their education In or near their
homes. For such as wore able to devoto
some time to study, Dr. Knapp
advocated their attendance fin a farm
training school, such as he outlin
ed.
"The farm training school must h*
both effective and 'economical,' he
said. "The training must tit men
to do the work on the farm necessary
for them to do and, inasmuch as
their funds are limited, it must be
economical, and even if their funds
wero not limited the farmer must
learn economy."
Such a school, in Dr. Knapp's opin
ion, should bo equipped with simple
apparauts; it should make a feature
of manual labor and it should strive
to teach by practical methods rather
than through the agency of books.
"Now, after some of these funda
mental things are acquired," continued
Dr. Knapp, "which of course must
be acquired along with the other
studies, what actual knowledge must
bo obtained? And among the actual
knowledge that he needs to acquire
for the farm?and I am now discussing
the man who proposes to live on
the farm?are the following:
"How to make a crop successfully,
which will Include the preparation
of seed bed, the seed and cultivation;
how to do his work the most
economically?which would include
the kind of teams, the feeding of
teams, the uso of the best farm tools,
etc.; the feeding of animals and the
value of the meadow and the pasture;
the uso of green crops and
the economic ration."
The improvement of tho farm
would follow immediately on the
adoption of modern methods and the
application of the above knowledge
to its administration, said I)r. Knapp.
He decleared, also, that the improve
ments on farms at the present time
were nearly all of a temporary nature
and, therefore, costly In the
long run. "The cost of repairs 's
too great," he said, "and the life
of the improvement is too short."
Dr. Knapp concluded his address
, with a glowing tribute to the farmer's
wife. lie dwelt upon her prac,
ticabllity and her love for her home.
Taking one such woman, whose
name ho did not mention, he said:
"She believed in housekeeping as
j a fine art and an art worthy of any
j. woman. Such a woman is a treasure
? in any household and worthy of all
honor by tho best man that evei
lived."
Dr. Knapp is delivering a seriei
of these addresses under tDo auspicei

A discovery of far-reachlug lmpcr- 1
tance to the farmers of the South 1?
the new fertilizer which has beon
perfected on one of the islands near
Charleston, S. C. It has long been ^
known that lime is an essential food
for plants of all kinds and that they
cannot live when it has been exhaust- '
ed from the soil. It has also been
known that old worn-out lands are
extremely deficient in lime, and that
pour, badly-drained lands have their
lime Is a for mthat is not iiHable by '
growing crops.
Farmers' Bulletin No. 124, U. R
Bopt. of Agriculture, says: "All
the applications of lime Increased the '
fields * The best yields were
obtained with the lime In the form
of carbonate, the finely ground oyster
shells standing first * Lime
with fertilizer wus more profitable '
than depending upon fertilizer *
alone."
This nvw fertilizer which presents
llmo in its most usable form Is mad*
by a new process of burning oyster
shells and using a burner that can '
supply potash. The result la a high
grade fertilizer costing the consumer
only $7.00 por ton. It reclaim*
worn-out lands In a marvelous manner
If applied broadcast two months
ahead of ammonlnted goods. It's J
sweetening effects on sour lands is
almost magical. Charleston freight
