One of the greatest luxuries OfSouth-
western Kansas, and especially Harvey
county, is its nice and dry roads at
this season Of the year. People from
other states, arriving in search of new
homes and to see this beautiful cOun-
try. tell us Of the almost impossible
condition Of the roads east of the Mis-
souri, river, and we know from expe-
riencc how truly they speak. Onr
roads are now perfectly dry and some
are smooth as floOr.-Nerton Kan

DR. SLADE of St. Louis has been
studying out the most humane ways
ofkilling animals He thinks that the
victim should be taken to the place of
slaughter quietly, and that everything
calculated to cause alarm should be re-
moved, No animal should be allowed
to see the death of another, as fright
is not only cruel, but it appreciably af.
fects the quality Of the flesh for food.
Killing may be humanely done by a
blow on the head causing insensibility,
followed by bleeding; or by cutting
through the spinal cord and so destroy
ing sensation instantly, followed by
bleeding. The uniform practice with
the Jews is to cut the throat without
first causing insensibility, and DR..
SLADE calls it cruel To kill a horse,
blindfold him and tie him to post.
The operator, armed with a heavy axe
or hammer, should stand to the left
and in front, aiming vigorous blow
at the forehead just between the pits
above the eyes. The horse will fall
instantly, when the head should be
drawn back and his throat cut to the
bone. fla pistol or gun is used, it
should be aimed exactly at the spot a
bove indicated and death will be so
sudden that cutting the throat will be
unnecessary. IF still easier death is
desired, sponge saturated with chic.
reform may be put into feed bag and
fastened close under the horses nose.
In ten minutes, with frequent renew
al of the chloroform on the sponge,
the horse will be dead. Oxen and
COWS require harder blows than horses,
and should be struck in the center of
the forehead, about an inch and a half
below the base of the horns. Calves
are usually bled to death, as blows on
the heads injlTe the brain as an article
of food. DR.. SLADE thinks that
broad mallet should be used. He al
so argues that hogs should be render
ed insensible by blows before their
Threats are cut, and that, contrary to
butchers belief, the blood vessel would
be emptied equally well. In shooting
dogs, the aim should be close, and
just over and in front of the ear. Chic
reform is also painless and effective.
Fish may be instantly killed by strik-
ing a quick sharp blow with stick
just behind the eyes.

1t is an extraordinary fact that
the life of no man of any age or nation
who has risen to greatness affords so
few anecdotes as that of WASHINGTON.
The early writer's sought in vain a
mong his friends and neighbors for
those little incidents which so often en-
liven the page of the biographer. A
mong the scanty number Of anecdotes
the following is one of the least famil-
lar: When WASHINGTON compelled the
British to quit Boston, Gen. Ward,
who was second in command, resign
ed his commission, of which circum-
stance WASHINGTON writes in a letter to
Congress "No sooner is the seat of
war removed from the smoke of his
own chimneys than Gen. Ward resigns
his command" Gen. Ward was elect
ed to the Second Congress, and soon
after his arrival at New York, then the
seat of Government, waited on Gen.
WASHINGTON and asked if it were true
he had made use of such language.
The President replied that be did not
know; but he kept copies of all his
letters, which he would examine and
give him an answer. When Gen.
Ward called again Gen. WASHINGTON
acknowledged himself the author of
the offensive words. "Sir," said Gen.
Ward, "you are no gentleman )" and
turning on his heel he left him, and
there the matter ended.

The National Liquor Commission.

1t appears that the Temperance
Crusade against the liquor traffics that
is now going on all over the country,
has reached the halls of Congress.
The Senate has passed bill author
zing Congressional Commission to
investigate the results of the liquor
trade of the country, by vote of 26
years to 21 nays. OF course with a
view to suggestions which shall ter
inmate impractical Legislation by Con-
gress and perhaps by the two State
Legislatures. Before the bill was
passed Senator Bayard, of Delaware,
delivered pertinent speech in which
we note the following practical points.
"He well styled the proposal one to es-
tablish "roving' commission, in
quest of statistics to form the basis of
future Legislation on the subject OF the
traffic in alcoholic drinks in the differ
ent States. But inasmuch as the
States alone possess the power to legis.
late, he insisted very properly that to
them ought to be left the business of
accumulating statistics. He challen-
ged the Senate to point to a single
trace Of authority in the Constitution
for Congressional legislation on mat
tiers of temperance and intemperance
in the several States, arguing that if
the Federal Government has not the
authority to enter State and assume
so large a part of its necessary police
powers, Congress can have nothing to
do with the subject whatever. The
whole question was thus compressed
into the most compact and clear state
ment possible. The loose notions and
shapeless sentiment that drag all such
matters before Congress, as it it pos
sessed an inherent sovereignty over
everything and could dictate to the
people in all their business and per-
sonal relations, awaited just such an
analytic scourging as, from his Con-
stitutional common sense, Senator
Bayard knows how to successfully adj
minister He repudiated with unan.
swearable logic the assumption cher
ished by so many well meaning per-
sons Z" that everything which is right
in itself should necessarily be per-
formed by Congress- They clearly
forget that this is a Government of
derived and limited powers, all Of
which are distinctly enumerated, to-
gether with the purpose and objects
for which they were delegated.
"Senator Bayard, however, would
have the Commission obtain the sta
tistics of misery caused by intemper-
ance, brought on in turn by the harass-
ments of life, by extravaganza in fam
lilies, by simple desire to find ref
uge, though delusive one, from the
evils that pursue so many Though
their whole career, and from the nu-
merous social fcllies that disgust, alien
ate and impoverish at last their
blind votares."
