FRIDAY, APRIL f, 1901.

THE Kentucky court of appeals seems to agree with the late James A. Mount that the men accused of killing Goebel could not get a fair trial in Kentucky.

THF. Klks should let Mrs. Nation slide as being a "dead one'! and turn their energies toward securing Aguinaldo as an attraction for the Fourth of .1 uly.'

THE Kentucky court of appeals did much to remove the odium that beclouds that commonwealth when it ordered new trials for the men so outrageously convicted of complicity in the Goebel killing.

THE Republicans of Nebraska are to be doubly congratulated. In the first place for breaking their senatorial deadlock and electing two good Republican senators, and in the second place for defeating Mr. llosewater, of Omaha.

IN the capture of Aguinaldo there is ono reason for regret. It would have been best for the world had the scamp resisted and sullered death. He has shown by a long record of broken compacts that he does not honor a parole, and as a prisoner he promises to be a white elephant. Doubtless in a year or so he will be touring this country with William Jennings Bryan lecturing or doing a team stunt in continuous vaudeville shows.

DFAVEY, Hobson, and all the rest are now eclipsed by Funston. If Funston doesn't go off on a kissing lark, marry a designing widow, or make some other bad break he will outlast them all. But then we can never tell what these soldier fellers will do when they come home to be lionized by the sons of peace. The naval heroes have all llunked under the ordeal, and it will soon be up to Funston to show how the army man can take it.

IT developes that several ollicers connected with the commissary department at Manila have been stealing supplies from the government. They will, of course, be convicted and punished,but in their case, as in the case of Neeley in Cuba, THE JOURNAL holds that the punishment prescribed by law is inadequate. If a soldier who sleeps on guard can be court martialed and shot, certainly an officer, who disgraces his government iu the eyes of a strange poople by the actions of a common criminal, merits an ignoble death. Corporal punishment should be meted out to all convicted and there should be no delay about it. The misdeeds of these men do the government untold harm at home and abroad, and while they are few in number they disgrace tho whole service and cast suspicion and distrust on honest men. Their crimes are far more harmful and fa reaching to society and civilization than those of common murderers. These oilicers are supposed to represent a government that is acting as the handmaid of civilization. A pretty idea, indeed, of civilization, must those who sit in darkness obtain from the felonious acts of such representatives.

A HAD IiULlNO.

An interesting but vicious decision as to what constitutes fraudulent representation by the publisher of an advertising medium, as to the extent of their circulation, was handed down by a New York circuit court the other day in the suit of the McCall Company, publishers of the Queen oj Fashion, a New York monthly, against J. M. Boyle, on an advertising contract. The reviewing court held the words printed in the letter head were no guarantee or warranty of the actual circulation of the journal, or that it amounted to a fraudulent representation, but that it was a mere "puffing" statement, on which Boyle was not authorized to relv. If he desired a guaranty of the circulation he should have secured it on the contract. The evidence did not show, as Boyle claimed, that the words on the bill head were a part of the contract.

THE JOURNAL does not attempt to refute the technical correctness of the ruling of the court but it has no hesitancy in saying that its tendency is ricious in that it is calculated to encourage and bolster up one of the most outrageous frauds in the country. When a publisher is detected selling bogus circulation ho should be handled in the courts just as the vender of any other "gold brick" scheme would be handled. When an advertiser buys

circulation he buys on cxactly the same principle that a man buys a bushel of corn or a yard of cloth. He is told by the publisher that he is getting a certain measure of circulation and if it can be shown that the publisher has misrepresented the facts he should be sent to prison the same as any other criminal. Circulation lying is stealing. There should be a law fraiueQ whereby the advertiser would be given a protection he has too long been without. Circulation is the only commodity that the purchaser has to take "sight unseen.'' A few papers have, it is true, voluntarily removed this evil by opening not only their books but their press rooms to public inspection. THE JOURNAL is one of this class and welcomes at any time a visit from an advertiser or any other interested party. The press room is open for investigation any day or any hour to anybody. We are representing that we have a certain article to sell and we are willing that those who buy it shall have personal knowledge that they are getting what they pay for.

DISFRANCHISED! EST IN TIIE SOUTH. A Republican congress, in order to avoid sectional feeling, refused to reduce congressional representation in the southern states. It is to be doubted whether this policy is to be applauded and encouraged by the inaction of congress. Maryland has followed the example of other southern states andlhas disfranchised her negroes. A writer in (f union's magazine during the sitting of congress, put the case as follows: "The very suggestion of reducing the representation of certain southern states because of their disfranchisement of negro voters raised a storm in congress, and the exigencies of practical politics prevailed against the plain mandate of the constitution. The 14th amendment provides in definite terms that, whenever the right to vote of any legally qualified citizens is denied them by any state, the representation in congress of that state shall be proportionately reduced. At present four states have, by a one-sided educational test, denied this right to the negro in consequence of which, as Representative Olmstead showed in his resolution introduced on .January *it-d, the vote cast at congressional elections declined between JK'JO and 1898. in Mississippf from 62,052 to 27,015: in South Carolina from 73,522 to 28,831, and in Louisiana from 74,542 to 33,101. In several other states, as is well known, the negro is practically disfranchised by force of intimidation. The disfranchisement act of North Carolina is too recent to show results in tables of comparison, but the obligation to reduce the representation of that state is exactly as binding as in the other cases. The grotesque absurdity is that, instead of obeying the constitution and reducing the representation of these states by fully one-half, the new apportionment actually gives Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina an additional vote each in congress. No doubt this avoided a sectional struggle of extraordinary bitterness, but at what a price!"

Paine's celery compound marks a tremendous stride in the cure of disease. No other remedy has evar succeeded in driving out the underlying causes of nervous and organic trouble so surely and rapidly. No remedy represents so comprehensive a knowledge of nervous exhaustion and the best means for its alleviation.

i^ape and Its Cultivation. Purdue University Agricultural Experiment Station. Newspaper bulletin No. 91, March 27, 1901:

Rape is a succulent plant belonging to the cabbage family. It grows rapidly, making a large amount of green food, upon which pigs and sheep grow well. To make a success of rape, select a rich piece of land free from weeds. Plough deep, then roll—if not too moist, and harrow till the soil is finely pulverized and well firmed down. Finish the preparation by running a plank drag over it. Such a seed bed will germinate the seed quickly and enable the plants to withstand dry weather. I prefer to have the ploughing done just before sowing. This will give the rape an even start with the weeds.

Sow with garden seed drill, three pounds, or five pounds broadcast per acre.

When drilled the rows should not be more than 20 to 24 inches apart. Drill sowing will permit cultivation, which will keep down weeds, conserve moisture and increase the yield. Where drilled the animals destroy less as they walk, and lie down between the rows.

If sown broadcast cover with harrow or weeder and roll. In many cases it is well to roll the drill-sowing also.

The season will control time of seeding. Do not sow until the ground has become warm enough to quickly germinate the seed, as it comes up better and grows more rapidly. Usually it should not be sown before the middle of April—in this latitude of north central Indiana. It is best to sow at intervals of ten days or two weeks. By the use of low hurdles, this will give fresh pasture throughout the season, as the early sowing can be grazed off a second time. This also makes less waste as tho stock does not run ov8r it so much.

Rape may be sown in the corn just before the last cultivation. If the soil

HEAD OF BUREAU OF PUBLIC PRINTING.

Chas. C. Whitney Uses Paine's Celery Compound Whenever He Is

Chas. C. .Whitney} hasmbeen at the head of the Bureau of Public Printing, state of Minnesota, for many years. He is also secretary of the Republican state central committee.

His duties in these two capacities are at times so exacting that he finds himself worn out and in a low nervous condition. At all such times he confidently turns to Paine's celery compound, and has never been disappointed.

He says of this wonderful remedy: "St. Paul, Feb. Hi, 1901. '"Dear Sirs—I have been familiar with the merits of Paine's celery compound for a number of years, and have used it when seriously 'run down' from overwork, both mentally and physically. But its good qualities never appealed to me more forcibly as during the last campaign. The hard work devolving upon me, as secretary of the state central committee, affected my nerves greatly and made it difficult for me to sleep. Paine's celery compound immediately restored the tone to my nervous system and enabled me to secure refreshing sleep. "It benefited me at once, and I do not hesitate to recommend it to my friends who find themselves in the same nervous condition. "Very truly yours, "CHAS. C.WHITNEY."

l'Run

Down."

It cures where other remedies—because they are either silly nostrums or well-meaning but old-fashioned and ignorant preparations—have been tried and found futile. Sana

Paine's celery compound was first prescribed by Prof. Edward E. Phelps, M. D., LL. I)., of Dartmouth College, in his private practice. It has been recommended by learned specialists in nervous diseases. By its merit alone it has earned the highest commendations from physicians, tho press and the public. It not only regulates the nervous system, but nourishes it sends more and better blood to supply the wasted nerves and takes the killing strain off the kidneys.

When pains appear in different parts of the body and one feels tired and depressed, the use of Paine's celery compound will drive away the rheumatism pain or the attack of indigestion and correct the failing appetite, which keeps pace so closely with the digestive powers.

Paine's celery compound has proved itself to be the most advanced remedy yet discovered for tired brains and worn out nerves.

Nerve tension is disguised under a good many symptoms that lead thoughtless persons to apply some useless local remedy, when the only lasting relief will come from purified blood, kidneys aroused to work, stomach secreting abundance of digestive juices, and a toned-up state of the nerves.

For all this there is no need of further proof as to the value of Paine's celery compound than can be furnished by the reader's own neighbors if one will take the pains to make inquiries.

The best test of the worth of Paine's celery compound is to use it yourself.

is not too dry, it will grow well unless the corn is very large and thick. Where thus sown it makes splendid pasture for lambs from September till cold weather.

Some men have had success in sowing rape with oats. This, however, is no' a sure way as the season will have much to do with it.

It is a good plan to have the rape patch near the barns and alongside of the pasture. This brings the animals under the stockman's eye, and if a lamb "bloats'' he is there to give it attention. If the stock can go freely back and forth between the pasture and rape, it will save trouble, time, labor and even loss. Rape thus supplements the pasture, making fat lambs and good pigs.

Where sheep have access to both rape and grass, they should not be turned on the rape until the middle of the day when the animals are not hungry enough to gorge themselves, and the rape is free from due. If they do not have the run of the pasture, turn them on the rape for an hour a day graduilly increasing the time, until they become accustomed to it. Then keep them on it continuously till the end of the season. J. H. SKINNER,
