Comparatively few persons who de-
pend upon Uucle Sam for their mems
of communicating with friends out of
town have any idea of the vast army of
men and women employed in the United
States mail service. There are to begin
with, SO. 200 postmasters, Presidential
and otherwise; 1000 railroad mail
service employees, 1000 letter carriers,
100 inspectors, 5000 clerks in the post
offices, 900 clerks in the Post Office
Department. This gives you a total
of II 900 employees. Every postmaster
averages two assistants, and this in
round numbers amounts to 116, 400
persons, which number added to
1900 gives you 1914, 300 persons over
whom the service has control. Elk.

more, to do with that bill than Sen.

THE present Legislature is called
"Our Farmer Legislature" because
of the large presence of representa-
tives from that element of the States
population. We hope the ills hereto
fore complained of by agriCulturists
ills growing out of laws made by
doctors, Lawyers and other profess
sional men" may be successfully met
and overcome by the "horny handed
sons Of toll" to whom the iegisla tive
task is so confidently entrusted. w
shall! watch for the statutes and shall
expect to see, in every instance where
the hand Of the lawyer or, other pro-
fessiOnal man has been absent in its
creation, a fruitful source of dispute,
a network Of inexplicableness. We
are the farmers friend. We are
pledged % his every interest and
while we think it always wise to have
him properly represented in every
law-making assembly still. we do not
believe that he is the fit man in every
instance to properly represent himself
and the peculiar interests with which
he is specially identified. A legisla-
turc composed Of farmers exclusively,
we mean farmers DE FACTO, not go
NOMINE, would be curiosity that
would remain forever undIscribed
and unassimilated. Nothing would
surpass it save perhaps a reorganlza-
ton of "Gardner's Lime Kiln Club"
and nothing would ever lie quite so
novel to lawyers, judges and officers
as the Statutes passed, printed and
bound in book shape, and issued to
the people. 1t would equal, as q
source of amusement, "Innocence
Abroad" and perhaps surpass. a a
cause Of dispute, the we'll ventilated

verance," or, PER CONTRA, Failing

Whatever may be said abont law
yers, when you come down to safe
business, when you begin 70 turn
about to find, not only the quick
sands but, the rocks in the broad
basis of legal superstructure, you
fundamentally look to the source of
good council, you apply to lawyers
and from lawyers you get your only |
good and satisfactory Information.
W hen the lawyers are ignored or
even slightly disregarded, the farmers
and every industrial interest of our
State will come to suffer and to
