POLITICS OF THE DAY

Deplorable Condltiona. . The last few years have doutbless seen some dimming of our national Ideals. With colonies we And many things to do thaFwe never looked forward to, and that were, until recently, supposed to be Inconsistent with established and well-settled principles. For Instance, it is manifestly impossible to govern the Filipinos as we govern people here at home—or rather as our people govern themselves. At the very outlet we have to recognize the fact that government in the Philippines is without the consent of the governed—at least, for tlie present. Plainly, therefore, we have learned by our excursion to the Pacific Islands that our boasted principles are not universally applicable. So trial by jury can hardly be practicable in Samur or Mindanao. And we find it necessary to Impose severe limitations on freedom of speech and the press, and even to violate the'constitution by resorting to the use of torture.

Out of this has grown a tendency to glorify the strong man, to take exceedingly “practical” views of things, to talk about “weak” races, and to rely more and more on the strong hand. This tendency is working out in many directions. One can hardly pick up a newspaper without seeing an account of some act of shameless cruelty and brutality perpetrated on a negro. But the negro belongs to an “inferior” race, jid so Is entitled to no consideration ■.Yom us Anglo-Saxons. And we actually hear voices demanding the repeal of the fifteenth amendment. We are not now discussing so much whether what we have done is right or wrong, as the intellectual tendency that has flowed from those acts. In the industrial world the sqme influences are at work. Men combine and form mighty industrial organizations which control State legislatures and Congress, and then we are told that we must not attack them, must not even deny 'them what they want, lest In weakening them we should destroy industrial prosperity. The vulgar rich, the millionaire adventurers, dazzle us with their splendor; and when we criticise their methods or question the beauty of their Ideals, we are told that they are really benefactors of the race. Railroads and anthracite operators get together In an organization that is in violation, at least of the spirit and intent, of the laws, and oppress and rob their men, and the latter are denounced for raising the price of coal. Everywhere is this glorification of strength—strength which conies from riches or mere brute force. And the answer to it all is that the country is prosperous! This is a sad plea to make to a people whose ancestors endured the most horrid privations for years In order that they might establish, as they thought forever, those groat principles which we now smile at as the mere dreams of political idealists. The only duty of governments nowadays—lncluding our own—is to make the people prosperous. When they have done that, all their crimes are forgiven. Believing as we do that Democracy is an immortal principle, and that we shall one day return to sounder and nobler principles, we refuse to take the pessimistic view. But that there are grave dangers abend of us cannot, we think, be denied. We insist that the pulpit has here a chance that it is certainly not Improving. We need to hear a call back to the old Ideals and principles.—lndianapolis News.

Roosevelt's Anti-Trust Rpeeches. The Republican President Is declaring on the stump that the trusts are productive of evil and must be controlled in the public interest. The Republican party for six yearst has had full power to curb the trusts, but has done nothing. While President Roosevelt advocates governmental control of the giant combinations, one of them, the Coal Trust, Is harassing industry and, pillaging all classes In the community by keeping the mines closed and doubling the price of coal. The President could proceed against the Coal Trust by ordering bls Attorney General to prosecute Its members under the Sherman law. And Mr. Roosevelt’s Attorney General chooses this time to make a trip to Europe! The Republican conventions of lowa and Idaho, giving voice to the sentiment of a large and growing element of the rank and file of the President’s party, have demanded, to the distress and alarm of the leaders, that the tariff shall be so revised as to deprive monopolies of its shelter—so revised, this means, that trusts which sell their wares cheaper abroad than they do at home shall be subjected to foreign competition. But Mr. Roosevelt, who knows, of course, that the tariff is the chief bulwark of the trusts, has not a word to say about the tariff. Nevertheless the President is doing a good work. He recognizes the existence of the trust evil and admits the Justice of the Democratic complaint against the unbridled freedom enjoyed by these combinations to plunder the people. That Is a great Republican advance upon Mr. Hanna's position during the Presidential campaign of 1000: “There are not trusts.’’ Ami upon Mr. Hanna's announcement made only a few weeks ago that “the only monopolies we have in this country are those protected by patents.”

It would be gratifying to hear from Mr. Roosevelt on the tariff and on the Coal Trust, but his speeches neverthen less are excellent in spirit, so far a, they go. Yet no relief from trust monopoly and trust robbery can be looked for from the President’s party, which, while he Is making his popular speeches, is campaigning to secure again a do-nothing majority in the House of Representatives. The reason why no relief can be expected from the President’s party is this: The Republican party is owned by the trusts.— Chicago American.

Fiuht for Real Democracy. Mayor Tom L. Johnson, of Cleveland, Ohio, is the kind of reformer that the profilers by abuses fear and hate most. He is not an earnest poor man, an outsider, who can be laughed at as a sentimentalist, a crank, nor an envious disturber. Johnson is a millionaire, a born money maker, whose business capacity compels the respect of the monopolists against whom he is warring. He knows all about them and their methods, and they know that he does. So Johnson is hated by the predatory rich as a traitor to their order, as every man of wealth is sure to be who declines to think that because he is a millionaire he is freed from the duties imposed by conscience and patriotism. Mr. Johnson is standing in Ohio for the Jeffersonian principles of equal rights to all and special privileges to none. The Democratic party of his State has accepted his leadership with enthusiasm, and the party of privilege and monopoly, led by Mark Hanna, finds Itself with a hot fight on its hands. Tom L. Johnson has brains, ardor for the cause of popular rights and tremendous energy. Every citizen who believes in government by the people Instead of government by money will rejoice if the Democracy, commanded by a chief who stands for so much that is worth while, shall rout the Republicans in Ohio.—Chicago American.

Will Balk the President. While President Roosevelt's advocacy of the Cuban reciprocity bill proves that there are Republicans who oppose their party's policy of breaking faith with Cuba and of starving the people of that island into begging for annexation, it does not by any means lessen the responsibility which rests upon the Republican party as an organization. The President Is doomed to defeat in his fight with his own party on the issue of reciprocity with Cuba. The high-tariff monopolists who control the machinery of the Republican party will defeat the President in the next session of Congress just as they did in that recently ended. The party as a whole will be held responsible for this violation of our national honor, and if Mr. Roosevelt suffers politically therefor It will be due to the fact that he is found in bad company.— St. Louis Republic.

Roosevelt and the Combines. The charge Is freely made that hfs speeches about restraining trusts are only declamation; that he knows nothing can be done; that his constitutional amendment will take years to get, if it is ever secured at all. But In cutting away the tariff protection of trusts there is something definite that can be done immediately. The Republicans of the West are demanding that it be done. Unless the President is willing to rest under the suspicion that he Is talking clap-trap for political purposes he will soon take occasion to say that he agrees with those ardent supporters of his in tlie West.—New York Evening Post.

Shaw's Confession. “The Republican party,” says Secretary Shaw, “never attempts to defend a tariff schedule, but does defend the protective principle." Since the tariff schedule is the practical application of the protective principle. Secretary Shaw’s assertion amounts to a confession that his party is standing for a principle that when reduced to practice Is Incapable of defense.—Rochester (N. Y.) Herald.

Great Industrial Wrong. The facts which the last census have brought out regarding the boy and girl wage w’orkers of the country are a national sorrow. Approximately there are 50,000 children In the factories of the South alone. In the North, despite more rigid laws, there are other thousands of laborers under a fit working age. Some day this burden of industrial wrong will be lightened.—New York World.

What May Happen in Michigan. General Alger should keep a record of those papers which are sportively and sarcastically treating his candidacy for the Senate. Michigan does some queer things in polities and ho may be elected. Then will come the sweetness of revenge.—Cincinnati Enquirer. , .

Reward for Weak Effort. The doctor of law* degree which ths University of Chicago is to give President Roosevelt when ho visits there may be called forth as a testimonial to his efforts to doctor our weak and falling anti-trust laws during the summer. —Boston Herald,

GARDEN AND FARM

SUCCESS WITH POULTRY. Those people who do not have good success ih hatching eggs under hens, usually will not do much better with the incubator. They may be divided Into two classes, one that is careless and neglectful, and the other that is altogether too fussy, who wants to be stirring the hen, or feeding her, or handling the eggs three or four times a day. For either of these to succeed with the incubator there must be a thorough reformation; a determination to follow the instructions given exactly, and do no more and no less than is explicitly laid down, and to do it by the clock. This can be done, of course, but how many can or will settle down to those rules?

DEEP PLOWING. We used to believe in what we read when young about the value of plowing deep to bring up the fertility that had leached down through the surface soil into the subsoil. Our opinion was changed when we tested the deep plowing upon a field with a clay subsoil that we planted with corn. Later experiments have more thoroughly convinced us that deep plowing, by which we mean a depth of more than four to six inches, is seldom beneficial in this climate, whatever it may be in other sections of the country. The crops like corn, that like to spread their roots near the surface where the soil is warmed by the sun, certainly do not need to have the earth stirred very deeply for them, while those that send their roots down into the subsoil, as onions, clover beets, etc., can do so almost through the hardest subsoil or anything excepting a gravel in which there is no moisture. —The Cultivator.

A BEE NOTE. When a hundredth part of an inch is mentioned the measure is considered but trivial and of little consequence, but scientists have figured that if the bee, whose tongue—the extractor of sweetness from the flowers—is but one-twenty-fifth of an inch in length, is capable of obtaining a plentiful store of honey, then a bee with a longer tongue must necessarily gather more sweetness. Clever beekeepers, by selecting only those bees with naturally long tongues, have succeeded in lengthening the tongues of a number of bee colonies a hundredth of an inch. It does not sound much, but it enables these insects to do a quarter as much work again in the same time. Man has done more than this for the bees. He has given them ready homes where they are safe from wasps and other enemies; frames for making their combs without using large quantities of wax for outside walls, and food during flowerless weather. He has also brought them to America where there is an abundance of honeybearing flowers.

MARKETING BERRIES. Picking is a very important part of the business. Women make the best pickers; too many young pickers have too much fun. It is always best to have a certain number of hands by the day, so they will always be on hand. A picking shed must have been provided, with suitable shelves and plenty of carriers. I prefer eight-quart carriers without legs. A supply of boxes should be on hand, with plenty of crates. If the fruit is solifein nearby towns, most of the crates can be returned; and with a machine for making boxes we prefer them fresh made, only one day old. Most growers prefer to have them made up ahead. Never ship red or purple berries in quart boxes. If it is possible, do not pick while the fruit is wet. Distant markets must be sought, night refrigerator cars must be had, and everything arranged ahead. In every shipping centre, fruit associations should be organized to handle the fruit. A great deal of fruit is consumed In every town. The nearer it is picked, handled and sold the better the profits. The marketing is a trade by itself. The home supply for the family and the home surplus Is easily cared for. In every fruit centre there should be a canning factory and facilities for drying the surplus.— George J. Kellogg, in New England Homestead.

NURSERY TREE PROTECTION. Nurserymen should find it to their Interest to protect their buyers of trees from introducing inferior stock of Infected stock on their farms, and 1 have found that the honest nurserymen who try to do this invariably get the best trade. Farmers and fruitgrowers should co operate in trying to drive out of business, by neglecting them, those who deal in diseased stock or inferior grades, a good many ot the State legislators are passing laws now making It necessary for all nurserymen to register, and then to have their stock examined, in this way it Is hoped to prevent the spread of noxious insects, blightsand other tree and vine diseases. Some states are lax in this respect, and the trees sold in those States should' be examined critically by buyers. The fact Is, more harm has been done to the fruit business by Irresponsible nurserymen than most of us imagine. It was a common practice a few years ago for such men to offer nursery stock that were not according to the variety advertised, but the purchaser could not tell this until several years had elapsed after planting. When a fruit grower buys a certain

variety of apple, peach, pear or plum tree it is exasperating to find that he has a totally different variety several years later. Not every purchaser is supposed to be able to distinguish one variety from another just by examining the stock. Therefore he must depend upon the honesty of the nurseryman. It is not sufficient to be told that the trees will be replaced at half price or at no cost. It is the time lost in raising the trees than can be made up. We should pimply drop from our business list all such nurserymen.—3. W. Chambers, in American Cultivator.

THg STRAWBERRY PATCH. As soon as the last strawberries of the first crop are gone, go through the patch and cut both tops and runners from the central rows, that is from the plants occupying the rows as they were first marked out; cut to within three inches of the crowns. A few days later remove the straw and cultivate as deep as possible, cutting away all plants outside the row. The shaping of the row can be done to good advantage by using a lever plow drawn by one horse. Turn a furrow about two inches deep throwing the soil from the plans. After this use the double shovel or cultivator on the middles and level them up nicely. Now give the row a thorough hoeing, and where the stand of plants is perfect chop out the mother plant—the one that was planted the previous spring. In a few weeks you will have plenty of young runners, and probably plenty of weeds too. Give a second cultivation, and lay six or eight runners from each plant a§ you did the previous season. If there is an excess of runners clip them off. Should further cultivation be found necessary to ueep down the weeds give it; but do not stir the the soil very deep after August. When winter comes put the old mulch back between the rows and cover the plants with a little fresh straw. Follow this plan of cultivation the third season, anti where the land is not “strawberry sick,” it may be kept up for a longer period, although I should not like to risk it without starting a new bed once in four years. These directions are for the care of berries grown by the “compromise method” described in my former article, but will answer for a plantation under hill culture, except that there is no need for the use of the level plow and no laying of plants, since runners must be kept off. But as this latter system affords no opportunity for renewing the bed by starting fresh plants, the bed should not be expected to bear more than three crops.—L. L., in Agricultural Epitomist.

THE BEST IMPLEMENTS. Do not make a mistake, as some do, of becoming wedded to a tool to such an extent that you can’t see the good points in any other, no matter how meritorious It may be, or can't appreciate a better thing when you see it. This is an age of constant improvement, so try some of the new things you see and hold on to tha which is best. Don't start in to work with a poor working plow. The best plows for general use are those with rather short moldboard that will break the soil up and pulverize it to a considerable extent as the ground is turned, and that leaves the soil turned in not too flat a condition. The harrow can then do its work of pulverizing much better than if the ground is turned completely upside down. We need then a good, sharp smoothing harrow, and drag to put most soils in first-class condition for spring planting. Oats should be sown early and it doesn't ordinarily pay to wait to break up the land. Here we need a good disk harrow. Two diskings, one at right angles to the other will put the oats, sown broadcast, in the ground' in good shape. Many farmers think that when oat ground is broken with the turning plow, it is easier to turn the oat stubble for wheat, but I doubt this very much, if the land is thoroughly disked. After the early spring rains the soil usually gets packed down hard, consequently the first cultivation of the corn crop should be deep to pulverize the soil again. For this purpose we need a good bull-tongue cultivator that can be spread out to cover the whole space between two rows at one time can be used. I prefer a spring-tooth cultivator for this after cultivation, for laying by the crop. On clay lands weedbrs don’t pulverize the ground deep enough to suit me. They will do in dry weather, or after the ground has been stirred with a deeper running tool. Corn will probably be the best paying crop for farmers of the Ohio valley to grow the coming season, so be prepared to do your work wed by getting the very best implements to begin with. —W. W. Stevens, in American Agriculturist.

Canada’s Septuagenarians.

The census department has issued a bulletin on ages, which shows that there are 1,321 more cki’drea under five years In Quebec than in Ontario, although the latter is one-third larger in population than Quebec. Since 1871 there has been a remarkable decrease in the proportion of infants in Ontario and Prince Edward Island, but, whatever the cause of the decrease in the number so children-may he, the census commission remarks that It is obviously not a decrease in the number of married population. The provinces showing the largest proportion over 70 years are Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Ontario. Out of every thousand In Canade thirty people are over 70 years of age and 234 arq children up to 9 years. The largest proportion of children under 10 Is in the Northwest and Quebec, with Manitoba closely following.—Halifax Mail.

INDIANA INCIDENTS.

RECORD OF EVENTS OF THE PAST WEEK. Sacrificed Her Life to Save Her Child Conple Married in Dark HoweElectric Roads in Prospect—Utica Women Make Improvements. In order to save her 2-jear-old child from a horrible death in their burning home, Mrs. Maude Cross of Marion rushed into the flames and rescued the little one at the cost of her own life. The fire was caused by a gas explosion which blew out two sides of the home and hurled Mrs. Cross into the yard. SJie was dazed, but thinking only of her child rushed back into the house, where her escape was cut off by the flames. Having secured the babe she wrapped it in her clothing at the sacrifice of herself and remained in the burning building until rescued by her husband and a brother, who were both painfully but not dangerously burned. Mrs. Cross died. The child was burned but little.

Wedding Ceremony in Dark. A wedding was performed under strange conditions in a home in Irvington, a suburb of Indianapolis, the ceremony taking place in total darkness. The bridegroom was Arthur G. Cooper, a merchant, and the bride was Miss Bessie Greenwell, a student attending Butler College. The young people had learned that the college students proposed a series of pranks at the wedding, and to avoid this the time of the event was changed. A few intimate friends were invited and the minister was slipped into the house by a rear entrance. There was not a light in the entire house.

Car Line for Michigan City. There is renewed interest in electric railway building in northwestern Indiana. A new city system is projected at Michigan City. The interurban line between Michigan City and Laporte is in course of construction out of both Michigan City and Laporte, and will be completed within a few months. The line now being built between South Bend and Benton Harbor is progressing rapidly, and it is claimed ears will be running this fall. This line will touch Niles and several other towns, and when completed will be one of the most important trolley lines in northwestern Indiana.

Big Merger of Cycle Companies. The plants of the Sherman Cycle Company and the Manson Cycle Company of Chicago have been merged with the Great Western Manufacturing Company of Laporte and will be removed to the latter city. The Great Western company was formed -ftmo years ago by tlie merging of the bicycle plants of the David Bradley and Adams & West lake companies of Chicago and the Crown bicycle works of Laporte. In magnitude the Great Western company is second in the country, being eclipsed only by the American Bicycle Company, now in the hands erf receivers.

Women Clean Up the Town. The women of Utica, growing weary of waiting for the men to make needed improvements. formed themselves into a committee under the leadership of Mrs. Leon Morrell nnd literally cleaned the town. The sidewalks had been washed away by heavy spring rains and the streets were lined with weeds. The women built over a mile of sidewalk and then cut down the weeds.

All Over the Stat*. In a wreck near Clinton on the Chicago and Eastern Illinois one man was killed. Mrs. Elizabeth Lawrence of Royerton, aged 99-yenrs, died at the minute she predicted she would die. Dean R. L. Kelly of Earlham College, Richmond, has been elected acting president owing to the serious illness of President Mills. Burglars entered the home of William Everett, an old and crippled peanut vender at Muncie, and stole SIOB that he had saved to buy food and fuel during the coming winter. A bold attempt was made to rob the Exchange Bank at Middlebury, owned by J. S. Mather & Son, but the robbers were frightened away after shattering the outer door of the vault. Mrs. William Depew of Bloomington went away from home and left her 2-year-old child in charge of its grandfather. The old man went to sleep and the child »fell from the porch head first into a bucket of water. It was found dead by its mother about fifteen minutes afterward. An anarchist of Turkish birth began a lecture on the streets of Warsaw and barely missed being lynched by a crowd of several thousand. The man made bold and treasonable assertions. The entire police force was called into service and with difficulty locked the fellow up for safe keeping. As result of the receib crusade against saloons, Rev. George W. Martin of Gaston was assaulted and badly beaten by AJva Rathei, whose father and brother conduct a saloon. The preacher was getting the better of Rathei when the latter’* brother took a hand. Bystanders stopped the fight. The Baptist District Council has terminated a session at Martinsville in which charges were formally preferred against Rev. William J. Delaney, formerly pastor of the church there, now of Indianapolis. He was accused of having collected money toward building a new church, now in process of construction, and appropriating it, with having sold books and collected for them and not delivering the books, and of falsifying the accounts ot the church. Mr. Delaney wrote a letter to the council convened and confessed to all three charges. He begged pardon of all offended and asked for mercy. The sate in the Freetown postoffice was blown open nnd wrecked,’s3oo worth of stamps, all the loose money and two registered letters being taken. An election for voting on the Cincinnati, Richmond and Muueie Railroad subsidy of $24,51X1 to secure the company’-* division headquarter* at Peru resulted in a victory for the proposition. While Mrs. William Curry was visiting a neighbor with her 3-year-old daughter Josephine at East Chicago, the latter, unnoticed, removed a phiaj ot carbolic acid from a taborette and drank the contents. The child died Inside of fifteen uiinutM.
