BESCHER, Candidate for Clerk, subject to the Progressive nomination. CLEANING DAY BULLETIN The committee of the Commercial Club on "Cleaning Week" named Prof. T. A. Mott and Charles W. Jordan as a committee on school work. These men realize the importance of instruction in childhood along the lines of good citizenship. They know that what you would have appear in the nation's life must be introduced Into the public schools. They see with President Eliott that the main object in teaching should not be to provide children with the means of earning a livelihood but to Bhow them how to live happy and worthy lives. To see beauty and to love it is to possess large securities for such lives. Efficiency comes by a cultivation of a critical discernment of beauty. City life can be rendered less detrimental to the wellfare of the masses. The future must witness a more lovable city and the boys and girls must figure in the making The school committee well understands the multitude of duties devolving upon the city teachers. The board Is not unmindful of their faithfulness along the well worn paths of customary instruction. For reasons, now fairly familiar to the public, they are freely falling in line with the plans for "Cleaning Week" observance. The school authorities of our city are in reality introducing into the course of study the department recently recommended and adopted by the National Educational Asociation of America, namely: "Regard for Civic Beauty." They are asking the Btudents in the grades to enroll in Junior Civic Leagues. In these, officers are to be named who may feel responsible for their leagues. Signing the following pledge by any student in any school in the city constitutes membership in the League: Junior Civic League Pledge. "I wish Richmond to be a clean and beautiful city and I will work to make it so: 1. By keeping its yards, streets and alleys clean. 2. By planting flowers, vines and trees and protecting them. 3. By not defacing any fence or public property." These pledge cards also contain 6pace for a prize report. Work for prizes begins May first and must end Wednesday, May seventh. Members of leagues are to be awarded with plants, one for every three hours of work. They may engage in any or all of the following activities, receiving credit for time spent. 1. Clean your own yard, back and front. 2. Clean your own sidewalks. 3. Collect trash anywhere about your premises and place on your own side of the alley, weighting down the paper, etc. 4. Secure signatures to citizens' pledges. - 6. Count the clean yards in your block. 6. Count the children you see keeping their pledges. 7. Pick up every scrap of paper anywhere in sight. Those organizing leagues will ask for real work from the members. They will be advised to honestly keep their pledges, to "play fair" as honorable citizens in their efforts to win prizes; they will be encouraged to develop a sense of city ownership and enthusiastic civic pride. The various school? are to compete for a flag which shall be presented to the building making the best record in "cleaning week" work. The flag will be a credit to the school, worth the winning in this and future contests. Citizen's pledges read: "I will assist the children by cleaning my own premises and encouraging others to do the same." Uniform blanks will be furnished the children for daily reports of work done and these must be properly sign-
Good News For Husbands. For the benefit of oppressed husbands to arm them for defense when they utter their feeble protest against the devastation wrought by the annual house-cleaning orgy and receive that scathing reply from their better and dominant halves, "the other members of the family are not content to live in dirt as you are," it is a pleasure to advise them that the national secretary of the Housewives' League has just come to their rescue with the following declaration : "GOOD HOUSEWIVES NEVER CLEAN HOUSE" This good friend of the Amalgamated Society of Suffering Husbands remarks that the housewife who cleans her domicile annually or semi-annually admits by these domestic upheavals that her home does not receive the proper attention each day in the year. "Do a little cleaning every day," wives are admonished by the husbands' champion, Mrs. Charles Griffin, "and there will be no cause for spring and fall desperations on your part." Let all husbands who have been forced to eat their meals off of mantels, who bear honorable wounds from falls off of stepladders or from hammers while driving nails in the wall, rise en masse and proclaim Mrs. Griffin their one best friend. A vote of thanks by congress might also be in order.
Amusing Hypocrisy. This sudden advocacy of the tariff commission plan by the Republican leaders in the house of representatives adds to the gaiety of the nation, for it is so audaciously hypocritical that it can cause nothing more than amusement to the patient public. A press dispatch describing the opening of the tariff debate in the house yesterday reads: The Republicans, led by Representative Mann, of Illinois, began their attacks on the various provisions of the first schedule of the bill, the chemical schedule, by declaring that the "weaknesses" in the rates showed the need of the investigations of a Tariff Board. Representative Underwood in reply declared that the Democrats had provided the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce, and that the failure of the Taft Administration to vitalize that bureau with sufficient appropriations had prevented its doing the work of tariff investigation. Representative Gardner, of Massachusetts, said Representative Underwood and other Democrats had voted for the Tariff Commission in the Sixtyfirst Congress, when the Republicans were in power, and urged that they support the Republican proposition now. To see this vitally important reform, consistently advocated by the Progressive party and by the Progressive Republicans prior to the organization of the Progressive party, deliberately appror priated by the reactionary Republican congressmen, who killed the plan when there was a chance for its adoption, was cause enough for Victor Murdock, the Progressive floor leader, to turn loose such a bombardment as to silence all the Republican guns in the house yesterday. Mr. Murdock accomplished this result by recalling the closing day of the Sixty-first congress when with Joe Cannon in the speaker's chair, the Republican leaders, fearing that the tariff commission bill might be passed, withdrew it. "The Republicans in this chamber then, like the Republicans in this, chamber now, were only pretending to be for a tariff commission," was the blunt but absolutely accurate statement made by Murdock. And this statement was substantiated by Speaker Clark and another Democratic leader, Rep. Sherley, both of whom had been wildly called upon to denounce the Murdock charge by Rep. Gardner, an ultra reactionary Republican.
Another amusing feature connected with yesterday's tariff debate was the statement made by Speaker Clark that he regarded a non-partisan tariff commission plan an impossibility. This cannot be properly appreciated unless one recalls what an enthusiastic advocate of the tariff commission system the Democratic party was just a few years ago when the Republicans controlled the house. At that time the Democratic party was insincere in its attitude on this question and supported it only because the rules of the political game require the minority party to advocate what the majority opposes, or vice versa. The truth of the matter is that both old bourbon parties are opposed to a scientific regulation of the tariff. They want this question, which supplies so much good campaign material, to remain in politics notwithstanding the hardships the continuation of such a policy works on the business interests of this country, and the only sincere champion the commission plan has is the Progressive party, and the American people have begun to realize thij fact ; also the necessity of safeguarding the tariff from meddling politicians.
ed by their parents before the teachers will accept them. Final reports of total work done must bear the signature of the principal of the school together with that of the president of the league. The school committee call for a strong united effort on the part of all concerned to make "Cleaning Week" a time of sincere benefit to the children and of true value to the city. MRS. F. W.

STATISTICS SHOW BIG IMPROVEMENT Death Rate Throughout the Country Lower in 1911 Than For Some Years.

The death rate for the total area for
that year is 14.2 per thousand, the lowest ever recorded. The highest ever recorded for the same area was 19.8 in 1880. Scientists will doubtless assert that education of the masses and the advancement of science are responsible for this change in the deathrate. Los Angeles has a death rate for 1911 of 14.5 per thousand San Francisco is apparently tolerably healthy, for it has a death rate of only 15.2 while New. Orleans, which is below the level of the Mississippi river has a death rate of 20.4. Death rates of other cities follow: Denver, 15.5; Chicago, 14.5: St. Louis, 15.4; Albany, 20.4; New York! City, 15.2; Rochester, N. Y., 14.4; Columbus, O., 14.3; Philadelphia, KS.6; Boston, 17.1; Milwaukee, 11.9 and Spokane, Wash., 11.6. Regarding the difference in stata death rates, the director of the census says: "In all the states for which comparisons can be made, except, California, the death rate for 1911 was lower than those for the preceding year, and for the period 1906 to 1910, and in all but two (Maine and New Hampshire) it was lower than that for the period 1901 to 1905. "It should be remembered that these are crude rates, which make no allowance for differences in the sex and age distribution of the population, and that variations in the proportion of colored population and possible deficiencies of registration in certain states may also affect comparisons between the states. For North Carolina the rates are based on figures derived from municipalities of 1,000 population and represent a high proposition of colored population. It is posslThe World's Oil

WELL - DRESSED NOT OVER DRESSED A friend writes: "You say a good deal about the style of your Wooltex coats and suits and what you say is true, but why don't you say something about the good taste in them? Some stylish women are terribly overdressed" One of the many differences between Wooltex garments and other less expertly designed productions is in just that factor of tastefulness. Wooltex styles are stylish they lead the styles. But they are the embodiment of the restrained, refined fashion-sense that marks the woman of cultivated taste. They are meant for women who know how to dress. And that is why the best-dressed women in this locality buy their clothes here.
