Charles Frank, who returned q
short time ago from q trip over
Oregon and Washington Territory,
does not give q rosy-hued description
Of those countries. He says that
they are much in their physical
conformation like Sweden-rOcks,
and hills Astounding. Furthermore
he testifiss that IL Il man should live
80 years and work all the time, he
would have his farm no better pre-
pared for tilling than the raw
prairies Of Kansas. He says that
those who are raising wheat out
there have their farms fully "a
badly mOrlgaged a. the Kansas
farmers. The skillful mechanic az
he can get job may get 81 aud 81
per day In places; but the ordinary
labOrer only gets from 81 % to sI25 per
day. The fisheries are great hut the
fishermen are abundant In number.
His advice IL for the Kansans to
stink to Kansas soil.

ence, and attained an unparalleled ma
turity, throughout the United States
during the period of the European wars"
Finally. in 1923. eleven years after the
close of his presidential term, when eff
forts were making to break down the
policy of protection, Madison wrote:
"a further evidence of the constitutional
power of Congress to protect and foster
manufactures by regulations of trade, an
question, is the uniform and practical sane
ton given to that power for rear forty
years."
Jefferson, another of the fathers, Sec
rotary of State under Washington, and
subsequently President, also favored
protective tariff In his second annual
message, Dec. 10, 1902, he urged Congress
$40 cultivate peace and maintain. COM
merce and navigation in all the lawful en-
terprises, to foster our fisheries and nurser-
les of navigation and protect the manu-
features adapted to cur circumstances"
A little later, when it became evident
that under the operation of the tariff act
there would soon be a surplus in the
Treasury, Mr.. Jefferson, in reporting the
fact to Congress, said: "Shall we sup
press the impOst and give the advantage
to foreign over domestic manufacturers
He also expressed the belief that "On
most articles the patriotism of the peO-
pie would prefer its (the tariff's) cOntin-
nance and application to the great pur-
poses of public education, roads, rivers,
canals, and such other objects of public
improvement as itmay be thought proper
to add to the constitutional enumeration
of the federal powers" In q letter to
Benjamin Austin, of Massachusetts, in
1916, Jefferson said:
1.-THE general inquiry now is, shall we
make our own comforts or 60 without them
at the will of foreign nation? He, there
fore, who is now against domestic manu-
features must be for reducing us either to
dependence upon that nation, or to be
clothed in skins and live, like beasts. in
dens and caves. / am proud to say that 1
am not one of these Experience has taught
me that manufactures are now as necessary
to our independence as to our comfort"
These quotations might be multiplied,
but they are enough to show where
Washington, Jefferson and Madison
stood. Other leading statesmen of that
period stood with them, or were more
pronounced protectionists. This was
notably true of Alexander Hamilton,
who had large following. The fact is,
that the Constitution was framed, and
the new government organized, on
basis of protection to American indus
try. The statesmen and the people of
that day so construed and understood
it. The pernicious dogma of free trade
found no support or advocacy to speakof
till nearly forty years after the adoption
of the Constitution. 1t has been causing
trouble and disaster at intervals ever
since

commit the most fragrant outrages with
out any liability on the part of the mar
shall. AS a matter of fact, the case sup
posed does not differ materially from the
one in hand. If Marshal Hawkins did
not know the utter unfitness of some of
the special deputies appointed by him,
he might have known it. The police
could have informed him. If the failure
to get easily accessible information rela-
tive to such appointees does not cOnsti-
tute negligence, we are at loss to know
what would, though it is plain that a
marshal who wanted to work a good
scheme" could exercise great deal of
negligence without being caught.

An Impure Water Test.


The growing popular knowledge of in
visible impurities and the deepening i'm
preston upon the minds of people. the ne
cessity of a pure water supply, have caused
a demand for simple and convenient test.
As yet there is no certain and reliable test
by chemical analysis. The following tests
are recommended: Fill perfectly clean
quart bottle half full of water, cork and
shake it; remove the cork and see if any
odor can be detected at the mouth Of the
bottle. Cork the bottle again and put in a
warm place for few hours, or set into a
pan of hot water for an hour. Shake, I'M
cork and again test by smell. If an I'M
pleasant or faint, or musty odor is percep-
tible, the water requires more minute in
vestigation. TIE second simple test is to
evaporate quart of water TO dryness in a
new tin pan ca cnp, and note the character
of the refidGe and what happens when it is
strongly heated IN 9 metal spoon. If the
sediment left after evaporation is small.
and on being bdrIed in a metal spoon gives
rise only to such an odor as comes from
burning vegetable matter, the water is not
greatly contaminated with sewage. But
if the sediment is in, considerable quantity,
dark in color and burns, giving off the Pc
culiar Odor of burning hair or other animal
matter, then the water is foul."

THE alliance between certain labor or

If the decision of the Superior Court
holds good, United States Marshal Haw-
kins is not liable for the wrongful acts
of his special deputies committed in the
late election, unless it can be shown that
he was guilty of negligence in appoint
ing them, or connived at their wrongful
acts. This may be good law, but it seems
TO establish dangerous principle, and
open wide door for the abuse of official
power. A marshal might, for partisan
purposes, appoint very unfit men as spe-
cial deputies, with every reason to know
their unitness, and yet, unless actual
knowledge or connivance could be
brought home to him, the deputies might

The Democratic cat-fight over the leg
islative appointments is growing lively.
Republicans will suffer in common with
the rest of the community from improper
selections, but as they cannot mend mat

enjoy the wrangle. A hungrier lot of
spoilsmen has been seldom seen.

SENATOR HIsCOCK tells the Washing
ton correspondents that he went to In
dianapolis to make simple statement;
that he made it and came away. Some
papers, which were apparently under
the impression that he came to get a
statement from General Harrison if he
had to knock him down to do it, express
surprise at this. Mr.. Hiscock undoubt-
edly tells the truth, however, and all
visiting statesmen, who, like him, con-
tent themselves with making their state

ceive as warm welcome from the Pres

THE NEW HAMPSHIRE sENAroRsH1p.

The Senate will no doubt meet in extra
session Immediately after the 4th of
March, as is usual upon the coming in of
a new administration, to consider Cabi-
net appointments and such other nomi-
nations as the President may send to it.
Because that body is so evenly divided
politically, extraordinary interest at
taches to the elections of Senators from
Delaware and New Hampshire. Della
this year will break it's record aud elect
Republican. The term of Senator
Chandler, of New Hampshire, expires
with the present session of the Senate,
and the Legislature that will elect his
successor does not meet until June next.
With vacancy from New Hampshire
the Senate will consist of thirty EIGHT
Republicans and thirty-seven Demo-
Gratis, which is very narrow margin and
will require the presence of every Re-
publican Senator to secure a majority for
that party. The Governor of New
Hampshire can appoint Senator to
serve from the 4th of March until the
meeting of the Legislature. Who he
will appoint is not known. Senator
Chandler, tits generally understood, will
be elected by the Legislature, and it is
eminently proper that he should be.
He is a very able man and an astute
politician of large experience in public
affairs. He represented New Hamp-
shire upon the Republican national COM
mittee for many years, and has held
many important positions in national
administration, amongst others, those
of Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
and Secretary of the Navy. Probably
no man in the country is better ac-
quainted with the affairs of the various
branches of the government. AS poll
tician, few men in the country have
welded greater influence inside his party
organizations. He is not especially pop
ular with the Bourbon Senators, because
he is thoroughly advised as to their
methods, and has the courage, aptness,
temper and ability to see through, ex-
pose and thwart their schemes. Senator
Chandler would be an exceedingly valu-
able member in body so nearly bal
anced politically as the Senate now is,
and as it will be for time. The Journal
hopes he may be elected, not only be-
cause of his ability and experience, but
also because the Democrats would rather
see almost any other man succeed him
self in the Senate than Senator Chandler.
