Give Free Markets A Chance. Last week the mayor was approached with a petition signed by regular and professional market gmrdeuers praying that the old order of things be established and that they be allowed to go back to the condition of affairs existing before the Richmond market became a free market. This petition will doubtless be presented tonight to council. For council last summer declared that no taxes should be placed on those who might wish to sell garden produce to the citizens of Richmond. In order to accomplish this the city assumed all the expenses of running the market. The idea was that if the market was left open with no tax levied against coming in to sell produce that there would be more truck gardens started this spring by persons who heretofore have not been able to compete with-the "gardeners' trust." If the ordinance is rescinded this will undoubtedly tend to discourage the planting of truck gardens by people who have not already made a business of it. In fact it is a matter of general conversation among farmers that they feel kindly toward the Richmond people because of their open door. Is there any use of shutting th in their faces? We are not going to go behind i utn we say that had there been not the slightest change in the situation thus far that the free market has not had a fair test
The motives which led Mayor Shank of Indianapolis to go into the market situation were not above the general level of politics. He whs simply seeking the notoriety which he got. The movement in Indianapolis is not all gold there is some little brass connected with it. And yet there are men connected with the work in Indianapolis who have no ends to seek. Their investigation showed that if the people could buy the surplus of the farms around Indianapolis without relying exclusively on the professional market gardeners with their understanding nor. to undersell the men to whom they sold at retail (the grocers) that the people of Indianapolis would have a better show.
It has not yet been tested out in Indanapolis and it has not been tested out in Richmond for the simple reason that in both cities the ordinances went into effect late in the summer. Nobody knows what effect there will be if people In the country know this spring that they can come in and sell their surplus produce. Everybody in this section rises in indignation every time the PayneAldrich tariff is mentioned. But the Payne-Aldrich tariff that Richmond used to have on garden truck is not so generally recognised. For by making a tariff (a tax) on all those who are to sell produce in Richmond it thereby happens automatically that only those who sell all the year 'round can afford to pay it and emerge with a profit. So it is perfectly evident that in order to get the largest supply of garden produoe into Richmond there should be no restrictions on those who come in. If then there should be a combination or understanding to keep up prices to the same level as that of the retailers then the next step will have to be met. But this is not so likely to happen with the check always on the producers of an irregular but constantly increasing surplus always coming in.
If council should repeal this ordinance creating a free market then ' Richmond would be back as usual depending entirely on those gardners who can well afford to pay a high license fee in order to keep the" supply of garden stuff in their own hands. And at the same time there would be a report carried to those farmers who are planning their gardens that they will have to pay a license fee if they dare to bring anything potatoes or tomatoes, onions, cabbage, turnips and radishes to town. Is council going to kill the free market before it has a chance?

The Voleano of Kilawea. Kllauea. on the island of Hawaii, as high as Vesuvius and twice as wide, lies thirty miles from the sea In a mountain range. There have been several outbreaks of Kllauea In the last hundred years. In 1840 there was a brilliant eruption of lavs, the light of which. It was reported, could be seen a hundred miles away. Where the lava flowed through the forest It left curious relics In the shape of lava arches, bridges and great vases. These vases were formed by the lava piling itself about some lofty tree trunk, burning away the wood within and killing the upper part of the tree. In the course of time seeds were deposited in the open top. filled with decaying bark, an til now there Is a gigantic lava vase holding ferns snd flowers and vines. A blue fox farm is to be started on karagin island. Kamchatka, and to be managed like similar farms in North America.

fUXSIDC GAMBLERS. Because of the scandals connected with certain whist clubs the police e! the north aide. Chicago, have started a crusade against "fireside" gambling. What Is "fireside" gambling? It is gambling indulged in by exclusive society women. The fair game sters do not merely play whist for prises, but poker games for money. The captain of police sent detective: to warn certain hostesses, declaring that if the gaming were not suppressed he would raid these homes the same as if they were downtown gambling Joints. Mirabile dictu! According to the police, the poker games are played at frequent inter vals. some of the card clubs meeting as often as five times a Veek. And the stakes run higher than $100 at times. And the women at whose homes the clubs meet take a "rakeoff" of as much ss $10 from each of the players. But wait; there's more. One woman complainant a Mrs. Ten Eyck. told the police she was robbed In one of these aristocratic homes while playing poker of $35 contained In her hand bag. Moreover It is also learned that considerable domestic discord has followed the revelations of the police. Husbands who had wondered at the sharp increase in household expenses saw a possible explanation. In short some of these women had been stealing in order to get the money to put up as stakes. Which is a fine mess. And as you read of these things you tremble for the future of a country whose women are thus corrupted. But Remember this these women are of the sort who dawdle .away their short forenoons with their maids and hairdressers, spend their afternoons at the card parties and their evenings at the theater. They are but painted parasites, use less butterflies. In their fireside gambling they are no better than the professional spi ders that lure the foolish flies into their parlors, and the police do well to make no distinction. Perhaps if they did not gamble thry would do some thing as bad. But They are not real women. They arconly the pampered pets of rich has bands. NOTICE. The Annual Meeting of the Congregation of the First Presbyterian church will be held at the church on Thursday evening, March 14th, for the election of three Trustees and for the transaction of such other business as may come before the meeting. D. L. Mather, Sec'y. British Museum 'Dome. . The reading room of the British museum Is crowned by a spacious dome, which is about thirty feet wider than that of St Paul's cathedral. It is 140 feet in diameter and, with its 00.000 superficial feet of glass, springs more than 100 feet In height. Neither St. Peter's at Rome nor Santa Maria at Florence is a match to It. It is larger by forty-five feet than the dome of the capitol at Washington, by thirty-five feet than that of Darmstadt cathedral, by thirty-three feet than that of St Sophia, Constantinople, and spreads sixteen feet further than the concave roof of the tomb of Mohammed Adil Shah at Bijapur. The Canadian Northern Railway Company has 4,415 miles in operation between Port Arthur, Ontario, and Edmonton, Alberta. Many new branches have been opened up, and a link will also be built to Hudson bay by a line from Prince Albert to Split !ke, where it will connect with the Hudson bay line from Le Pas.
