Simplified System Gets In
dorsement of the
Association.
DEMAND HIGHER SALARIES
Advocate Teaching of Morals and
Respect for Elders and Abolition
of Fraternities Child Labor
and Rural High Schools.
LOS ANGELES. Cal., July 12. The Na
tional Educational Association concluded
Its labors today with the adoption of a
series of resolutions, principal among
which was one recommending that the
teachers of America at once enter upon
a systematic course of instruction with
regard to inculcating a stronger sense of
patriotism and morality.
Second In Importance was one upon the
subject of simplified spelling. Indorsing
the work of the Simplified Spelling Board
and directing the secretary of the asso
ciation to adopt the shorter style of all
of 300 selected words in the publications
of the association. It carried by a vote
of 209 to 22, although it was said that
many other than active members voted
In the affirmative.
Better Salaries, Better Manners.
The resolutions further indorsed the ef
forts being made to increase the salaries
of teachers, favored harmonizing of the
child labor and truancy laws and urged
the state to provide for the education of
every child; impressed upon educators
that the building of character was the
real aim of the schools and deplored the
tendency among children toward a disre
gard for constituted authority and lack
of respect for age and superior wisdom;
urged abolition of secret societies, frater
nities and sororities In schools,- denounc
ing them as Inimical to the Interests of
schools and pupils: declared for the merit
system for the promotion of teachers and
against political intrigue; and resolved
strongly In favor of world peace and In
ternational arbitration.
The resolution referring to the indus
trial situation was introduced by Colonel
Alexander Hogg, ex-Superintendent of
Schools of Fort Worth, Tex., and read
as follows:
Resolved. That it is the sense of this as
sociation that it Is the duty of the teach
ers of this Republic at once to enter upon
a systematic course of instruction, which
shall embrace not only a broader patri
otism, but a more extended course of
moral Instruction, especially in regard to
the rights and duties of citizenship, the
right of property, the security and sa
credness of human life.
Following the rendition of several
musical numbers this afternoon. Profes
sor John Adams, of University College,
London, England, addressed the conven
tion upon "A Significant Lack of Educa
tional Terminology." Following this,
Benjamin Ids Wheeler, president of the
University of California, Berkeley, Cal.,
spoke upon the subject of "Call Nothing
Common." His address was received
with expressions of approbation by
'arge audience that filled the auditorium.
Living Wage for Teachers.
The National Educational Association
notes with approval that the qualifications
. demanded of teachers in public schools,
especially in city schools, are Increasing
annually and particularly that In many lo
calities special preparation Is demanded of
teachers. We regret the attempt that la
being made in soma quarters to evade the
consequence of low aalaries. The salaries
and often the conditions under which teach
ers In the public schools teach do not offer
sufficient inducement to offset the more
promising positions in the commercial life
of a large city. Recourse la had, therefore,
to selecting students with incompetent high
school or normal school training to nil these
yearly increasing vacancies. Hence we be
lieve that constant effort should be made
by all persons In educational works to se
cure for teachera auch adequate compensa
tion for their work that both teacher and
public will realize teaching as a profession
We wish heartily to indorse the action of
those legislatures that have fixed a mini
mum aalarv at a living wage.
The -rapid establishment of township or
rural high schools la one of the moat grat-
Ifvlnar evidences of the progress of educa
tion. We believe that thia movement ahould
be encouraged. It Is the duty of the atate
to provide for the education of every child

dren obtain the rudiments of an education.
The legislative provision that all taxpay
ers must contribute to the support of the
public achoola logically carries with It the
Implied provision that no person should be
Dermitted to defeat the purpose or tne puo
lie school law by forcing their children at
an early age to become breaa-wlnners.
The National Educational Assoclatlo
wishes to record lta approval of the Increas
ing aDDrectatlon among educators or tn
fact that the building of character ia the
real aim of the schools and the ultimate
reason of the expenditure of millions for
their maintenance. There la In the mtnda
of the children and youth of today a tend
ency toward a disregard for constituted au
thority, a lack of respect for age and an
perior wisdom, a weak appreciation of the
demands of duty, a aisposuion 10 iomuw
Pleasure and interest rather than omiga
tion and order. This condition demands
the earliest thought and aotron of our lead
ers of opinion and placea important oou
gatlons upon school authorities.
Stand by Simple Spelling.
The National Educational Association ap
proves the efforts of the simplified apelllng
board and other bodies to promote thi sim
plification of English spelling by the Judi
cious omission of useless silent letters and
the substitution of a more regular and in
telligible spelling in place of forma that
are grossly irregular or anomalous, aucn
additions to be made accoraing to me ex
isting rulee and analogies of English spell

be organized and operated in the interest
of peace and not of war. We believe that

upon the atrength of their armies and
navies.
On Doth Sides oC Fence.
nafnrai tViA Hour of the, convening ar
rived, considerable discussion and some
dissension arose among the educators as
to the attitude to be taken in the matter
of simplified spelling. Yesterday the
hoard of directors voted to discontinue
the tree of simplified spelling of the words
"through." "though. ana luumuju,
.u... i,.ino- a rilatlnct setback to the pro
r.r hii reform. This action was
taken' because, in the language of the
resolution, the attitude of the association
w not sustained by tne American yroaa
which continued to use the old standard
form.
Today, however, In the report of the
committee on resolutions, there appeared
a paragraph endorsfns; the efforts of the
simplified spelling board, approving the
new spelling of the list or art words ana
directing the secretary of the associa
tion to use the simpler forms in the pub
lications of the association. It was pointed
out that. If this resolution were adopted,
the association would be committed, ap
parently, on both sides of the question.
For fear, however, of causing serious
dissension in the closing session, it was
argued that no effort should be made to
amend the committee's report, leaving
with Secretary Shepard of the association
the option of following or disregarding
the mandate of the convention, as he
saw fit.

KIDNAPED MAN IS FREE
MEXICANS RETURN S ARABIA
WITH APOIiOGIES.
Prisoner Writes Graphic Story of
Illegal Capture and Deportation
to Mexico by Rangers.
DOUGLAS, Ariz.. July 13. Manuel
fcSarabia, the Mexican who waa kid
naped from the Douglas Jail on the
night of June 30, for "which Mexican
Consul Maza and three American of
ficers have been held for trial by the
grand jury, is tonight a free man with
out the vestige of a charge against him.
He arrived at Naco, a border town near
here, accompanied by Hanger Captain
Harry Wheeler. . Governor Torres at
Hermosillo to Captain . Wheeler ex
pressed great regret at the manner In
which Sarabla had been tret ted by of
ficers in his department. He will be
here tomorrow.
The International American today re
ceived a remarkable letter from
Sarabla, dated July 9, while Sarabla
was In the penitentiary at Hermoslllt.
The letter is as follows:
I do this letter with a little pencil and
write on my knees, 'so It is bard to do a
good one. I am Manuel Sarabla, the man
who worked In your office as Sam Moret
and who was kidnaped by the Mexican
Consul and some American officers. The
80th of June was walking toward the depot
to drop a letter in a train going to 1 Paso.
A ranger turned on me and said:
"Hands up."
I certainly was surprised, but did not o&re
for the revolver he put on my breast.
"Hands up, said he again, "you are ar
rested."
I answered: "Show me the warrant."
"Don't need any warrant for you." said
the ranger.
'Well," said I, "then I don't go with
you," but he asked for help to a man who.
was near us and both took me to the City
Hall. Was placed In a Cell and guards
heavily armed were watching me. Near 11
o"clock at night two officers went over my
cell and one said to me:
Put on your clothes." After they put
heavy rings on my hands, they said.
Come on. I immediately guessed all, and
more when I saw an automobile on the
front. I started to cry out:
'Laong live liberty. Don't take me down
to Mexico, I am a political offender, Manuel
Sarabla, an honest man."
They put me in an automobile and sailed
away, a handkerchief in my mouth, an
other on my eyes, and choked me Into
quietude. Oh, It was a crime. I never
thought that the American officers would do
that kind of work. Talk In your paper
something about my case in name of civil
isation. The American Government must
ask for my return and give me an open
trial.
My case Is a clear one. X am victim of
the law. Four years ago I went to the
United States as did I know it was th?
country of liberty. So ask for justice; ask
for my return to American soil.
After the American officers delivered me
to the rural es. 10 that were waiting for me.
they put me on horse as a sack of potatoes
and we were riding all night. In the morn
ing arrived at Naco. I was badly Injured.
Twelve or fifteen officers took me to
Cananea and put me in a cell. The Fourth
of July, the ru rales took me on a horse
and with rings on my hands to Sonora.
After riding 18 hours we arrived at the
town. I was in a very bad condition. The
5th they took me to Hermosillo, where I
am now. The Mexican law says that any
Incommunicado prisoner who is not asked
any questions between 72 hours must be put
free. I have nine days, they don t ask mo
anything yet, and am incommunicado.
Waiting you will do something for me.

Yamamoto Entertained by Roosevelt.
He Says apanese Are Only An
gry With California, Not
With the Whole Nation.
NEW YORK, July 12. Admiral Baron
Yamamoto, one of Japan's naval experts,
today met for the first time President
Roosevelt, the man who more than any
other man was responsible for the con
clusion of peace between Russia and Jap
an after a prolonged war, during which
Admiral Yamamoto was Japan's Minister
of Marine. In a private conversation the
representatives of the two countries dis
cussed the warcloud which has been
hovering over the long lasting friendship
between Japan and America and each ex
pressed the opinion that It was merely a
passing shadow.
Although Admiral Yamamoto Is In
America In a purely personal capacity
and In no way as a representative of his
government. President Roosevelt made
special arrangement today to entertain
him and the party of naval officers who
accompanied him and took occasion to
discuss In a purely Informal manner the
sensational stories which have for some
time been printed In the newspapers of
both countries.
Only Angry With Coast.
Admiral Yamamoto in the conversation
repeated the statements he has made be
fore, that any feeling that there might be
In Japan because of occurrences on the
Pacific Coast was directed solely against
the people of that section of the country
and that there was no possible chance of
these feelings reaching a point where
trouble between the governments would
be possible.
As an Incident of today's meeting.
Captain Kano, who is Admiral
Yamamoto's aide, presented to Mr.
Roosevelt a small box of Imperial Jap-,
anese red lacquer from the Emperor.
The party left New York in a special
ear shortly after 11,. o'clock this morn
ing. Following the luncheon. Admiral
Yamamoto and his suite returned to
New York. Other guests at the lunch
con were Ambassador Aokl, Assistant
Secretary of State Bacon, Representa
tive Herbert Parsons of New York and
Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Morgan, also of
New York.
Nations Are Still Friendly.
The following statement regarding
the visit to Oyster Bay was later given
out there by Secretary Loeb:
"The President had a long interview
with Admiral Baron Yamamoto and it
was most satisfactory in every way.
It simply confirms (what already has
been made clear by Ambassador Aoki)
the thoroughly good understanding be
tween the two governments and the
friendliness between the two nations."
Tomorrow morning Admiral Yam
amoto and his party will leave for
Philadelphia, where they will Inspect
the Cramps' shipbuilding yards and
the Camden -yards, returning to New
York in the evening, when they will
attend the theater. Sunday the party
will lunch with General Grant at Gov
ernors Island and spend the rest of
the day slght-seelr.g. Monday will be
spent In Boston, and Monday night
the Admiral and his suite will leave
via Montreal for Seattle, whence the
party will sail for Japan, July 23.

PRISONER IN JAPANESE HANDS
Corean Emperor Not Allowed to See
Visitors or Tell Wrongs.
PHILADELPHIA, July 12. The des
patch frm Seoul in which Marquis Ito
declares that Corea's King Is not a
prisoner Is denied by William T. Ellis,
of this city. Just returned from a pro
tracted Investigation of conditions In
the Far East. Mr. Ellis says:
"Everybody in Corea, native or for
eigner, knows that the Emperor is ab
solutely a prisoner in Japanese hands.
I have investigated this point partic
ularly. C. D. Stevens, the foreign ad
viser to Marquis Ito, told me that the
King could not be seen because they
had to keep htm in 'leading strings.'
Not content with this, I got a state
ment from Marquis Ito's own lips that
the King is Involuntarily In their
hands and conflrmed Mr. Stevens' re
fusal to let a foreigner see the King.
From Coreans close to the throne I
learned that the Emperor would be
very glad to meet any one who could
tell his wrongs to the public
"The King has been a prisoner ever
since he refused to sign a treaty ac
cepting a Japanese protectorate and he
is not permitted to see even bis phy
sician or most Intimate friends without
a pass from the Japanese. He Is con
fined to his palace and exercises no
authority whatever."
JAPANESE" SPIES CAUGHT
Engineers Found in Act of Sketch

SAN DIEGO. Cal., July 12. It is
learned . tonight from a trustworthy
source that, in addltlbn to the Japanese
detected in making sketches at . Fort
P.osecrans a few days ago, another was
ejected, from the fort today for having
a blueprint of the works in his posses
sion. This latter Japanese was employed as a
servant at the fort. He is a man of su
perior attainments. In his room was
found a standard work on engineering.
The blue print was well drawn and
showed much technical skill, but was not
quite completed.
Major Getchell still positively refuses
either to admit or deny that Japanese
have been detected In spying at the fort,
but from others in a position to know
the facts the report is confirmed.
The orders of the War Department are
very strict regarding the visits of per
sons to the coast and lake defenses and
it Is ' provided that neither written nor
pictorial descriptions of these works are
to be made for publication without the
authority of the Secretary of War, nor

Death of Peter Larson, Builder
of Railroads.
HOW HE MADE BIG FORTUNE
Second Richest Man In Northwest
Came From Denmark Penniless.
Helped to Build Northern Pa
cific and Great Northern.
HELENA. Mont.. July 12. Peter Lar
son, one of the richest men in the North
west, died at his home tonight after an
Illness of two years.
Never was there a more striking ex
ample of helping one's self than the ca
reer of Peter Larson, who less than 40
years ago landed on American shores
penniless, unacquainted with the language
or customs of the country, but died the
wealthiest man In the Northwest with the
possible exception of ex-Senator Clark.
Of Mr. Larson's vast wealth, variously
estimated at from $25,000,000 to $00,000,000,
all came through legitimate buslnessyln-
vestments. He was possessed oi a most
wonderful foresight, and his only poor
Investment was his first one.
Came to America Penniless.
Born in the Island of Fuyen, in 1819,
of peasant parentage, Mr. - Larson emi
grated to America when only 20 years old.
Practically penniless, he was compelled
to seek employment In the building of the
Bads' Jetties near New Orleans, and saved
about $300.
Hearing of railroad construction work
In Arkansas, Mr. Larson went thither,
where. In making an alleged investment,
he was buncoed out of his small fortune.
This, however, proved a valuable lesson,
for thereafter he was duly cautious and
never made a "bad loan." He borrowed
a watch in order that he might accept a
position as timekeeper on the Arkansas
Railroad. . This road completed, Mr. Lar
son went to the Black Hills and engaged
In freighting. This proved very remun
erative. . t Builder of Railroads.
About this time the building of the
Northern Pacific was begun westward
from Bismarck. Mr.-Larson secured sev
eral sub-contracts, and upon the comple
t'on of the road had built more than any
other man. It was while thus engaged
that he entered the banking business, his
bank being at the "front" for the pur
pose of paying men and subcontractors
with greater convenience. He built the
Noihart branch of the Great Northern;
the Montana Central, Including the
Wickes tunnel, between Helena and
Butte. Mr. Larson under the firm name
of Woods, Larson & Co., In 1689. con
structed the Coeur d'Alene branch of the
Northern Pacific, and the Spokane Falls
& Northern and Washington Central
roads. He also had large contracts on
the Canadian Pacific and In Alaska. He
was one of the chief contractors for the
construction of the Pacific extension of
the Great Northern from Havre to Seattle
and has built many branch lines In the
Northwest.
Mines, Banks, Timber.
About 1891. with Thomas Greenough, of
Missoula, he bought the Morning group
of mines, at Mullan, Idaho, for about
$350,000. This proved to be one of the
biggest silver-lead mines in America. It
is estimated to have paid a profit of
$25,000 a month. In October, 1905, it was
sold, with the As You Like It, for
$3,000,000, to the Federal Mining & Smelt
ing Company.
Mr. Larson had heavy interests In the
National Bank of Montana, in Helena,
the Yellowstone National Bank, of Bil
lings, .the Cascade National bank, of
Great Falls, In Montana, and the Old
National Bank, of Spokane, Wash.
About nine years ago he bought from
the late Senator Alger a large tract of
timber land near Whatcom, Wash., for
$500,000, and Increased his wealth $2,000,
000 by sales of stumpage and enhanced
value of land. He owned a sawmill at
Whatcom, practically owned the Belling
ham Bay & British Columbia Railroad,
was largely Interested In the Centennial
flour mills, at Spokane and Seattle, and
controlled the Spokane Brewing & Malt
ing Company.

IN ONE WEEK ALL

"Our little girl, one year and a halt
old, was taken with eczema or that was
what the doctor said it was.- We called
In the family doctor and he gave some
tablets and said she would be all right
in a few days. The eczema grew worse
and we called in doctor No. 3. Ha
said she was teething, as soon as the
teeth were through she would be ail
right. But she still grew worse. Doc
tor No. 3 said it was eczema. By this
time she was nothing but a yellow,
greenish sore. Well, he said he could
help her, so we let him try it about
a week. One morning we discovered
a little yellow pimple on one of her
eyes. Of course we phoned for doctor
No. 3. He came over and looked her
over and said that he could not do any
thing more for her, that we had better
take her to some eye specialist, since it
was an ulcer. So we went to Oswego
to doctor No. 4, and he said the eye
sight was gone, but that he could help it.
We thought we would try doctor No. 5.
Well, that proved the same, only he
charged $10 more than doctor No. 4.
We were nearly discouraged. I saw
one of the Cuticura advertisements in
the paper and thought we would try
the Cuticura Treatment, so I went and
purchased a set of Cuticura Remedies,
which cost me SI, and in three days
our daughter, who had been sick about
eight months, showed great improve
ment, and in one week all sores had dis
appeared. Of course it could not re
store the eyesight, but if we had used
Cuticura in time I am confident that
it would have saved the eye. We think
