Trtw TSanvtsmW* BARNESVILLE. CA. THURSDAY, AUGUST 23, 1899 EDITORIAL NOTES. It is reported that Secretary Root, of the War Department, alter about a month in office, has decided to re sign because of disagreements between himself and President McKinley and Secretary Hay. It is but another illustration of the fact that a man in jjolitics is a man in trouble. In urging the organization of a chautauqna in Marietta, the Marietta Journal, in its last issue says: “There are several of these institu lions in our state, at Barnesville, Cor dele, Gainesville and Albany; and ac cording to reports, they exercise a very salutary influence in the commu nities where they are located, not only to the attendants from a social, intellectual and religious point of! view, but to the towns from a finan-1 rial standpoint as well.” And yet there are people who op pose chautauquas. There are some somewhere to oppose everything un der the sun, and you never know what position a man will take until he opens his mouth and speaks. There are over 70,000,000 people in the United States who have different ideas. * * # Senator Benjamin K. Tillman is getting warmed up in the South Car olina campaign and he usually speaks just as he pleases. The people of the South will endorse this sentence from a recent speech made by the senator: “I believe in white supremacy at all hazards, the world, the flesh, the devil, and the Yankees to the contra ry notwithstanding.” ♦ * The appointment of Col. J. J. Rogers as solicitor of the county court of Pike by Judge E. F. Dupree will give general satisfaction and the interests of the state will not suffer in his hands. Asa lawyer he is faithful and honest, as he is as a man and citizen. He has been engaged this week in the court, discharging his first duties under the appointment. For years Col. Rogers was solicitor while Judge J. S. Pope was the judge. It is hot and dry and the crops are short and the prices low! It seems to be bad, but as it is impossible for anybody to help it, we must make the best of the situation. It will all come right after a while. • • * A man who does not advertise his business is like a man without a phy sician—he may live but the probabil ity is that he will die. N. W. Ayer & Son, who handle millions for ad vertising. say there's no advertising like newspaper advertising. * * * A delightful rain came Tuesday and did a great amount of good. It cooled and purified the atmosphere and refreshed man and beast and vegetation. Yonr Murk Solicited,.

Latterly nil the employees of th Hudson Bay company were caught young; only bids born in the solitude, of the highlands conld habituate them salvos to tilt* life of loneliness; only constitutions of iron, hardened under hereditary conditions, could endure sc tremendous a strain. It may ho assumed that the first ad- venturers consisted chiefly of English men, although Ihe Scottish invasion of England had set in with the accession of King James. But it is certain that afterward. l>oth with the Hudson Bay company and its great Canadian rival, the names of factors, traders and prom inent partisans, with scarcely an ex ception, were Scottish.

CarlouN fllrd Hfibltfi* It is a well known fact that if the young of almost any kind of bird are taken from the nest before they can fly the old ones will feed them most atten tively if the cage in which the little birds are inclosed is placed somewhere where the parents can reach it, and a popular but erroneous belief is current that they do this for n time, and end by poisoning the young ones. This, however, is a mistake, the fact being that at a certain stage of a young bird's existence, when it is naturally able to begin catering for itself, the parent birds, also quite naturally, cease to nttend it, and then, if the birdlings are shut up in the cage and their cus todian has not thought of placing soras food at their disposal they necessarily ! die, not from poison administered by I the parents, but from starvation. —St | Louis Post-Dispatch. | Petition for Charter.
