The Standard of

The Congressional Record for the present session of congress can be obtained from the Government printer for the sum of one dollar. The congressional record is an accurate report of every word spoken In the legislative halls of the United States government. According to the paragraphers of the metropolitan newspapers the price of the Congressional Record' seems absurd. Why should anyone happen to want to know how a congressman votes. We are foolish enough to believe that if the people of this country were more In the habit of reading the speeches of their congressmen or at least looking them over there would be fewer men who were returned to congress and a still fewer number who would be returned over and over again. For a long time this district only wanted to know whether a man was a "good Republican." That got the district into trouble and it woke up to find that it was being run away with. . We hope the people of this district will pay close attention to the doings of Congressman Flnly Gray. We hold no brief for him. We simply insist that he shall be Judged by his record. He made certain promises to the people of this district. If he goes back again It is because he has lived up to them. In the last few days, June 20, Mr. Gray has given his opinion of the wool schedule. We shall have occasion to print the position he took. But before he is Judged let us see what an obligation he has Imposed upon himself: Members of this House are elected not only to represent their own districts especially, but all districts generally as well. It is their duty to serve not only the greatest good to the greatest number in their own districts, but to consider the greatest good to the greatest number in all districts. No duty is enjoined upon Members of this House by reason of their office to burden not only the majority of their own constituents but the whole of the great consuming public In order to favor a few Individuals or a single private industry in their own district. Such a policy is representing the few instead of the many and serving private interests at the expense of public welfare. There never can be relief from the burdens of the tariff while men are willing to surrender prinlcple to favor local private interests. Whenever we claim the right to Impose a protective tariff upon one of the necessaries of life because that article is produced in our congressional district we stultify our principles and Justify like burdens imposed upon every other necessary. We preclude tariff reform and perpetuate private monopoly. I. too, come from a woolgrowing district, but I hope that that fact will not deter me from my duty to serve the greatest good to the greatest number, nor impair my obligations to all the people and the great consuming public, nor lead me to act upon ray fears instead of my convictions of Justice and right. I hope I can realize that while a part of the people of my district have wool to sell that all the people from my district have clothing to buy, and that the right to buy clothing is as sacred a right as the right to sell wool. And 1 hope I can appreciate that the laboring man, when he looks into the faces of his wife and children, with winter impending, realizes as great a responsibility before him as the man who raises sheep or the wool manufacturer, who claims the right to draw dividends on watered stock.

WHAT OTHERS SAY IRRIGATION FOR MARYLAND. From the Baltimore American. ' The average rainfall in Maryland is abundant for the making of all farm crops if only the natural, sprinkling system could be controlled that the water from the clouds would be deUvered at Just the right times and in Just the proper quantities. There Is rarely a year, however, In which the farming industries of the state do not suffer from drought during some period of the growing season. The drought of, the present year, coming before the middle of April and extendng through May, affected the grass, the wheat, the early vegetable crops and tho fruits. A competent observ er from one of the eastern shore counties estimates the damage in thot section of the state at $1,000,000, and this Is undoubtedly a conservative es timate. The drought damage over the entire state will probably exceed $3,000,000. In the semi-arid regious of the far weBt, where the rainfall is too slight for agricultural purposes, they are damming the streams and turning on water as needed. Notwithstanding the fact that the water cost for irriga tion purposes is often as much as $30 per acre annually, the irrigated farms are valued at from $100 to $300 per acre. Surely there ought to be a valuable suRgestiveness in the extraordinary satisfactory results that are ob tained from these artificially watered western farm lands. SIMPLIFYING COURT METHODS. From the Chicago Journal. It may be taken for granted that the movement set on loot by the United States Supreme Court to simplify the rules of practice on the equfty side of the federal tribunals may have an in fluence in bringing about reforms in this matter In tho lower courts. Experienced lawyers and judges agree that chancery matters should be subjected to much needed changes in methods of 'procedure. In fact, it is notorious thot many chancery cases are allowed to drag their slow lengths along almost interminably if there is "enough In them" to make delays ad vuntageous to unscrupulous attorneys. The action of the Supreme Court af fords hope of reforms long needed in these matters. CHECK THE MURDER INDUSTRY. From the Chicago News. By order of the city council it is made the duty of the judiciary com mittee of that body to frame an ordi nance regulating the sale of deadly weapons. One more ordinance on this subject, particularly if it shall with stand the scrutiny of tho courts, will doubtless serve a good purpose pro vided it is enforced. Manslaughter in this city has come to be a sort of pastime. If one may draw conclusions from the homicide statistics. The tool "THIS DATE

While the council Is wrest ling with the problem of drafting still another ordinance against the promis cuous sale of tools for committing mur der it would be well for the public to consider ways and means of increas ing general respect for law and regard for human life. POLITICAL REASONS. From the New York World. Secretary Meyer need not expect that his plan to close three of the least useful navy yards on grounds of economy will be enthusiastically received by congress. In spite of the efforts of the administration It has been Impossible to abolish the local pension agencies and make all payments through one central agency in Washington. Con gress is more subject to local political considerations than to a passion for sound economy. THE INSANE FOURTH. From the Kansas City Star. Kansas City s plans for a sane Fourth, make fine progress each year beginning the second week in July and continuing up to about the middle of the following June. A SKILLFUL SHOT. The Way to Bring Down an Overhead Incoming Bird. One of the cardinal rules of the old time shooting school cautioned the gunner against ever trying to stop an overhead incoming bird, but to wait until It had passed by and to the rear and then take chances on what is undoubtedly the harder shot of the two. It is surprisingly how difficult it is for some sportsmen to successfully score on their Incoming birds. Many who con seemingly cope with game in any other mode of flight will habitually balk at this shot aud acknowledge their Inability to make it. Yet ouce its principle is understood and the lesson learned the dropping of an overhead incomer is as easy as anything can well be. The miss Is al ways made by the sportsman shoot ing under and behind the bird, and there is but one way in which the er ror is to be avoided. To make the shot the gunner should wait until the bird is about to pass over him, theu, bringing up his gun. follow lu from behind, cover the bird and swine in ahead of it and, main talning the same rate of speed, press the trigger the instant the bird is hid den behind the barrels. Bo not stop the swing of the gun and be sure the bird shall have disappeared from sight. If the shooter wi!l observe this rule he will be surprised how easily and invariably ha will kill his bird.

Heart to Heart

Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyright, 190S. by Edwin A. Nye HOLD TO YOUR FRIEND. It Is related of one of the Russian czars that once, during a battle, he dismounted from his horse, put a wound ed lieutenant on his saddle and carried the lieutenant to a place of safety. Then the czar swung his hat and exclaimed: "I have saved a man!" The battle bad gone against him. That was a mere Incident. The thing worth while was that he had saved a man. There is no joy compare Die to that Some years ago a like pleasure came Into my life, and, whatever happens to me In time or eternity, nothing can rob me of that happiness. At the risk of apparent egotism I tell this true story: I saved & man from himself. He was my friend and was worth saving. Lacking one thing, he was every whit a man. lie was a victim of the drink habit lie tried my friendship sometimes to the utmost. Often he would telephone me, "I am down again." At such times I would hasten to him with a closed carriage and take him home. Ills wife, in many respects a good woman, would have nothing to do with him on such occasions, and I would put him to bed. Except when in his sprees he was attentive to business and successful. Many times he voluntarily made promises of reform. I never reproached him, but said: "That is past You will not do so again." He grew worse. The sprees came closer together. My friend's business began to suffer. His wife left him. His physician said to me: "There Is no hope. He Is what is known as a constitutional drunkard. He inherited the drunkard's temperament." We got him to take a "cure." He straightened up for awhile, but was soon "down again." He avoided his friends and consorted with the lowest He was in the ditch. One day. though he tried to dodge me, J met him face to face and spoke to him in the old familiar way. I asked him why he had not come to see me and Invited him to lunch. The poor fellow looked down at his clothes and his voice broke as he said. My God, do you think there Is any hope for me?" I assured him I still believed in him and would help him. He turned to go and said, "When you see me again I shall be clothed and in my right mind.' That was years ago. One of the delights of my life is to receive letters from my old friend, now a successful business man In an eastern city. And before me are his words. You can tell the world that It was your belief in me that raised me from the ditch." Hold on to your friend! However low he goes, bold on! Suits, Coats, Skirts, Shirt Waists, tomorrow at $5.00.

Gotten by Our Forbears from Old Hymns. St. Louis, June 28. "Old gospel hymns, for which our forbears mar1 tyred their peace and occasionally sacrificed their heads, and with which they rocked themselves into a religoous souse, are cheap, crude and do not tend to sobriety. They appeal to the inebriate instincts and produce a physical ecstacy akin to intoxicating liquors. "The are indigenous to American and probably sprang from the rhythmic convulsions of the old Southern darky. The tunes are the cheapest of dance music of a most primitive character. They are the most baneful influence against the progress of American music." This Is the conviction of representative musicians attending the Missouri State Musicians' Convention. The hyms mentioned as typical of this class of so-called sheet church music were "At the Cross, At the Cross," "Throw Out the Life Line;" "Oh, Happy Day!" and "1 Want to Be an Angel." James T. Quarles, organist at the aristorcatic Lindell Avenue M. E. church, where the convention is being held, said none of these hymns was used In his church. He declared they are being thrown out of all the large churches and are heard now only at the missions. He said practically every Protestant church has revised or Is revising its hymn books.

WISHBONES. On Their Shape Depends the Force of Birds' Wing Strokea. Scientists call the "wishbone" the furcula, and it is the union of what are in man two cellar bones. These receive the brunt of the strokes of the wing that turn the creature in its flight. Few of ns appreciate the strength of the stroke of the bird's wing. A swan has been known to break a man's leg by a blow of its wing, and in like manner the wing beatings of the larger birds are dangerous If they strike the human head or face. If, therefore, a large bird Is in the habit of making sudden turns to right or left in Its flight It must be fitted with a "wishbone" capable of withstanding the great strain of the wing stroke ou the one side when unaccompanied by action on the other. For this reason we find In the eagle and birds of its class that turn quickly a furcula that is a perfect Roman arch, widely at variance with the Gothic arch, which is the shape of the "wishbone" of our common fowls. The eagle's furcula is everywhere equally strong and lacks those points of weakness that make our sport of breaking the "wishbone" possible. Harper's Weekly. Winning a Title.
