slider it. They insist that the Louisiana
purchase is the supreme law of the land,
but congress will probably insist with
equal pertinaclty and with much more
power to enfore their opinion that the
constitution of the United States is the
supreme law. However there need be no
contest over these two claimed ''su-
prems" authorities, for the treaty
by which the Louisiana purchase
was made was under the con-
stitution and certainly does not conflict
with it. BY their extreme declarations
the Huron convention have probably in
jured their cause more than the avowed
opponents of division and South Dakota
statehood could have done. They have
furnished the democrats in congress with
plausible excuse for opposition to the
admission of their proposed state. Al
most the only chance left for them now to
placate the democrats in Congress would
be to fix up slate among their politicians
whereby their state would divide tina,
delegation TO congress equally with the
democrats, say make Bourbon Brooklngs
and Pickerel Pettlgrew the United States
senators and Campbell and Cauldeld con-
gressmen. This arrangement would har-
monize the thing on q party issue and
perhaps satisfy the gentlemen named.
But in their extreme states rights views
we would advise them not to secede from
the union before they got into it. Without
any reflection upon the character of the
material of which the convention is COM
posed their action reminds US of the old
adage, "Glve a beggar horse and he
will ride to the devil" They were in
the position of beggars for admission in
to the union but as soon as they got
astride the horse they commenced going
stra,ghtway to the devil, and from the
start they have made, the prospect is fair
that they will "get there" The only
hope of redemption for South Dakota is
in snutflng out the politicians when the
people como to elect their delegates to
the constitutional convention.

PERHAPS not since the discovery Of the
Bender human slaughter pen in LaBette
county, Kansas, several years ago, has
such wholesale murder come to light un-
til that of DIR. Hathaway was disco 'ered
in the basement of the house occupied hy
him IN the Quaker city of Pennsylvania,
which, if possible, is even more horrible
than that of the Bender cutthroats in
Kansas. The skulls and bones of twenty.
one infants who were the victims of
this prenatal murderer attest the extent
of his menstrous practice. Not only this,
but it proves more, and brings to light If
not to Identification the still more out
rageous fact that in this fiendish work he
had perhaps as many female accessories
as there were victims and who stood IN
the relation of mothers to these destroyed
innocents The doctor Is rendered i'm
mortal in his infamy and when he comes
to expiate his crime upon the scatfold, as
he shoun be made to do, the least that he
can do would be to share that immortal
ity with his female accessories by expos
ing their names to the world. That re-
voting refinement. which so largely OBJ
tains in eastern cities, of looking upon
the bearing of children as belonging only
to the lower and vulgar classes makes
demand for just such practitioners as DR..
Hathaway, aud he is only one out of
thousands that arc engaged IN 1t. 1t
matters not that the accessory often dies
from the effect of such "trcatment," they
will take the chances, having at least a
fashionable funeral awaiting them in case
of fatal results to cheer and comfort
them through their sufferings, and pass
port to he angel land from the minister
who shall officiate at the ceremonies.
The ministry, whose silence upon this
mons!rous evil and depravity whose con-
tagion reaches from ocean 10 ocean must
be ignorant of it. Their silence cannot
be charitab)y accounted for IN any other
way. These sentinels upon the watch
towers Of Zion thunder their anathcmas
of divine vengeance upon the outlaws
and dcsperadoes who take human life,
but never a word against these delicate
and refined murderesscs. When the great
day of judgment comes, and the world
shall stand stript of all DISCUSSES, there
will be such q revolution of society and
class distinctions as the superficial observ-
er little dreams of now.

If the speech Of the temporary CHAIR
man of the Huron convention. on assum-
ing his duties as such, may be taken as
votcing the sentiments Of the delegates it
Is folly to predict result of the confer
encc other than what might reasonably
oc anticipated of an aggregation Of IRE
deemablc cranks. The central idea of
Caulfield, and the one that towers above
oil others, is that the supreme power
and right of statehood is inherent in the
territory from which and Of which the
state is to evolve. If such sentiment
had come from any other source than the
representative head of body of men as
semblcd IN the capacity of that of the
Huron convention 1t would be unneces.
sary to even characterize and denounce
it as q fanatical delusion and political
heresy. 1t is not only barren ideality
but vicious and revolutionary doctrine,
beyond the extreme of John q. Calhoun,
the father of the States Rights heresy,
which was afterwards championed by
Robert Toombs, jeff. DAVIS and few
other fire. eaters of the south, had its cul-
minatlon in the attempted act of seccs-
sion IN 1861 and the setting up of a
''sovere1gn inherent" government styled
the Confederate States of America.
If Mr. Caulfield represents the senti-
ment Of the delegates the convention as
sumes the attitude of bulldozer of the
congress of the United States, and in
stead of petltionlng that body for admis.
sion into the union will demand it. He
makes the extravagant assertion that"we
are citizens of the United States, and as
such have the same rights that are en-
joyed by the citizens Of the states Of the
union" He further says, "Wlth this
view we are assembled at our own call TO
declare that we have the right and that
we will form state and take upon our
selves all the rights, privileges and res
possibilities of state of the union" 1t

the Numerically opposite effect of arous-

Agricultural Experiment Stations.

Within the past eight years there
have been founded in several states in
situations which, though they have not
yet attracted much attention from the
general public, can hardly fail to exert
in the near future, an important intlu-
ence both on the material and mental
welfare OF the people. These inSttu.
tons are the agricultural experiment
stations, of which six now exist in this
country, with the prospect Of the cstaJ-
Iishment OF at least two more.
BY an agricultural experiment station
IS understood an institution established
and maintained for the purpose OF pro-
noting agriculture by scientific invesli-
cation and experiments. Such institu-
tons have, in most cases owed their cX-
istence to governmental action, and have
been sustained at the public expense,
though in a few instances universities
aud private individuals have carried on
what are in effect experiment stations,
the most notable example OF the latter
being the well-known Ro,hamslad ex-
perimeuts OF Messrs. Lawes and Gilbert
in England.
Although experiment stations are
still somewhat Of novelty in this coun-
try, they are far from being so in
others. There is scarcely a country in
Europe where one or more is not in OPP
GRAFTON, while in the German Empire
they number not less than fifty. The
first to be established was that ut
ROthamstead, Just alluded to, in lSi3.
This has continued to the present time,
though not under the name of an eX-
pertinent station. Nine years later the
station al Mockern, in SaXonv, which
had been carried on for some two years
by private and corporate generosity,
received grant of money from the
state and became the first public sta
ton. In 1888 q station was founded at
Chemntz, in 1888 one at Gross-k meh-
lin, and for the succeeding TWENTY-FIVE
years, 1860 was the only year which did
not witness the institution of at least
one station. Other European nations
followed the example of the German
states and stations were established by
France in 1886, by Austria in 1857, by
Holland in 1851, by Sweden in 1861,
by Russia in 1864, by Italy in 1870, by
Denmark in 1871, by Belgium in 1872,
by Switzerland in 1872, by AuStro. Hun
gary in 1873, by Scotland in 1875, by
Spain in 1876. The value of the scen-
tihc work done by these stations during
the last thirty years, and the impetus
it has given TO rational agriculture are
very great, -PopuiW Science MoNthy.

The Causes of Blusbinp,

The Physiology of bushng has lone
presented a difficult problem to solve.
Many unsatisfactory explanations have
oeen gwen OF the causes of that inter.
esting phenomenon. The British Nedt.
cal journal lately received an inquiry
IA to the measures to be taken for the
cure OF chronic tendency To blush, and
one OF its correspondents takes up the
matter IN n very practical way.
Among other causes OF blushinc he
gives prominence "to the wearing OF
too thick underclothing and especially
OF too thick socks He adds that long.
sleeved wooden sacks or JERSEYS are
often cause of blushing, and, in fact,
warm clothing in general. He does no
fail to remark that the blusher must
choose in this matter between the risk
OF rheumatism and the ANNOYANCE OF
blushing. As collateral evidence in
support OF his views he saws: AN aunt
OF mine had habitually red nose from
this cause alone, which Disappeared
