EYES OP ITALY ON TRIPOLI. Wall the greater part of Europe Is suffering from disturbances 'due to economic causes, and Italy herself Is scourged with cholera, the land of the Caesarm, taking advantage of the dis pute between France and Germany OTer Morocco has again begun to think of realization of her old ambition for the possession of Tripoli. Italy has not fared so well as other European nations when she has ven tured on land-grabbing ventures. She occupied a portion of the Red Sea a few years ago and the result was an encounter with Abyssinia that event uated in a humiliating and disastrous defeat for the Italian arms. Italy has ever had her eyes upon Tripoli, end every time the other Eu ropean land-grabbers have got busy Italy has concentrated her thoughts upon Tripoli. It lies directly across te Mediterranean from Italy and Is rich In traditions of the days when Rome was great Along its coast are many Roman ruins. Tripoli Is a nominal possession of Turkey, as is Eirypt, but It Is left very much to Itself. While the greater part of the country is a desert, there are still some rich oases and the coastal plains support a fairly numerous pop ulation. a Champ Clark and his fool annexa tion speech must not be forgotten in summing up the contributing causes. M Premier Laurler was made a Knight by King George. Wonder what In the name of goodness he'll make Mr. Bor don, hero of tb landslide? Much abuse and criticism have been hurled at Governor West retarding his policy of dealing with state con victs. While the onward march of I civilisation has changed our methods ! of handling prisoners at state peniten tiaries, yet w cannot be in full accord with the policy of our present state I executive. The state owes to Its citi zens a certain amount of prYrtectlou. a protection which will Instill Into their minds the fact that their Uvea, the Uvea of their children and their property are safe from harm. When the state does something which des troys this feeling of safety, the state does wrong. When the Governor sends out hardened criminals Into certain districts and the presence of these convicts destroys the peac of mind of the citizen nhar" community." then the Governor does wrong. While w admit the value of convict labor on the public highways, yet this work should be done In such a manner that will not cause people to become alarmed for the safety ot themselves, their children or their property In terests. While we know that we have no right to criticize Governor West unless we have some other plan to suggest that we think Is better, yet we can point to the way convicts are treated at the penitentiary In Cali fornia. tlon have received country-wide com ment on their prison policy, their latest achievement having been the production of a four-act drama, by the convicts themselves. The production was appropriately staged, the music furnished by a convict orchestra of twenty-two pieces, the audience be ing composed of the full number of prisoners at San Quenten. a a How much money do you spend every day on things that you do not need? If you are a man and only amok one cigar a day at a coia-f ten cents, do you realize that this habit will smokeap over $36-00 a year or enough ur buy a good suit or over coat, tn better, yet, this ten cents a day will more than pay the premiums on a $1,000 life Insurance policy. No, we don't practice what we preach in this instance, but facts are facts. a a a The fact that a large number of married womea and some of our single ones who hope to be married soon, are so anxious to take up the course of domestic science at the high school ought to give all the girls who are at present attending the high school the "hunch'' that this Is really the moat Important thing that Is in the course of study. Of course we realize that opinions differ, but speaking from a somewhat selfish standpoint it Is cer tainly better to learn how to cook 'before" than ' after." This will save many a heartless Joke about the "bis cuits that mother used to make" and "things were never like this even at the boarding house," and "who told you that this is cake." Don't pass up domestic science, girls. a We predicts that before very long the state will furnish all grammar grade pupils with free text books. A large number of states have adopted this policy and in no Instance where the plan has been tried has there been a return to the old system of the par ents of the children buying books. Of course this matter has two sides to It, but the ''school book" question is a very serious one. Already we have a provision made for the furnish Ing of free books to destitute children, but fathers and mothers will go (o extremes before they will admit to their neighbors ofcr the proper officials that they cannot afford to buy books for their children. The books for the eighth grade cost SG.45; for the seventh grade, 15.65; for the sixth grade, $4.50 and so on down the list. So when a man has two or three chil dren to provide for and Is working for J2 a day It Is really a serious matter. Washington provides books for her school children and we venture to say that it mill not be long before we follow her example. a a Speaking of school books, things are not the way tbey used to be. In the days of "readln", wrltin' 'an 'rlth metlc," which was not so very long ago, three or four books were all that were necessary for a grade. But now the story is different. The little ones just starting must have their water colors and two kinds of readers, those up a grade or two must have their music books, and sewing books. Then comes the call for an agriculture book and so on. Ta rapky ot the paper mill who are a (fact ad hy the aew bonus araem got busy the first day tat tha plaa was la effect and earned a bonus of 1 par cent by producing 195 tons of paper ta a day of twenty-four hours. Tha man declare that they are going to eara the 1 par cent boaa every day this week. By tb way. t local mill ha tb second largest output ot paper a day of all tb mills la ta country. a a a It Is predicted that the U Wires will have their hand full this win tar. This matter ot the locks Is at the present time "at the bat." tb commission plan ot city government "on deck." Other thtng to he taten np by tats organisation are tb county support ot the county fair, the dredg ing of the rapids, the public dock, and aa armory. Then there are several other things ta mind that will be sprung at the proper time. a .. a Hardly a day goes by that new ac counts are started at the local post office savings bank. The success of these banks all over the country In bringing Into circulation money thai has ben hidden away for years has proved the wisdom of the move.
