Horse Dentistry.
From the Detroit Journal.

''See that horseF asked George F. Case
this morning.
YES"
"Well, in about two minutes dentist is
coming around to put his teeth into shape. y
"A horse dentistW
Exactly. He'll trim the rough edges off
and in fifteen minutes he'll be the appie,t
equine In the stable. He won't feel any
mores if he had three boils in his mouth
and scalded tongue"
The dentist arrived just then, opened a
tanned calfskin case and exposed a set of
shining tools. The horse, which had been
standing in a somewhat Respondent atti-
tude, frightened up and looked expectantly,
but little nervous. The dentist didn't
stand on ceremony. He thrust his a. m
deep into the mouth, and acquainted him
self with the length and locality of the
spikes. Then he thrust in an instrument
like pair of tougs and began cutting the
teeth. The roughened edges came off with
a loud, cruncaing noise. A smaller pair of
tongs was then inserted, and about one
eighth of an inch was cut off the front teeth
They were then beveled with another in
strument and then all the teeth were filed
OFF smooth. The hor looked satisfied as
he was led away to a stall

THE SORGHUM SUGAR QUESTION

The question of the sorghum sugar IN
dustry, whether or not it can be made
profitable, has been clearly demonstrated
and definitely settled, as far as the pro-
duction of the sugar is concerned, and it
is now only necessary that refineries be
established to convert the crude product
into merchantable state to place it in
the great stream of public demand. The
sugar trust people are evidently skeptlcal
on this point, but there is no question
about their doubts being removed, and
this season. There is too much idle cap
ital in the country looking for employ
ment to permit so important and profita-
bic an enterprise, to remain undeveloped.
We expect to see sugar refining facili-
ties sufficient to meet the requirements
of the industry and the trade established
mad in successful operation in Wichita
within twelve months. This being the
center of large scope of the finest sor-
ghum growing territory in the ountry, it
is naturally the point where that interest
will center, and sugar refineries become
at once matter of necessity. Wichita
has promptly met every requirement
put upon her so far and she will not Iall
to maintain her prestige and preserve
her record in this respect in the future.

peoples ringers are. She is no longer
victim to the foolish prejudice against
spreading her foot out on the floor. She
is no longer victim of the illusion to
the eye, ignorant of art, that littleness Is
beauty. She 10 longer desires a set Of
cramped toes, but spreads them out on
the floor and tries to make them assume
the square, beautiful proportions of the
baby's sweet foot.
In fact the foot development craze
with the fashionable progressive girl of
the period may be called the baby foot
craze. These exercises of the foot and
toes make them able to spring twice as
far off their feet. She is constantly seek
ing better shoes. She is doing Just the
reverse of what she used to do when she
fought with her shoemaker because the
shoe was not tight enough. She is now
constantly fighting with him to get them
broader at the toes, and many a girl who
is proud of her new sensible, progressive
idea will hold the toe Of a broad shoe in
view for you in the street cars, at home
and elsewhere.
Many jokes are cracked on the corn
doctors in the papers, but we always ad-
wise people to wear anything but pointed
shoes. The foot and toes should have
all the freedom of the hand and fingers
a great many girls also ask US for advice
about curing pigeon toe. 1t IL curious
thing that many girls live all their lives

USES OF ELECTRICITY.

The statements of Prof. Edison, the
great electrician, in regard to the practi-
cability and certainty of death from a
current of electricity would seem to set
tie the question Of employing that meth
! Cd for executing criminals where its eff
cacy alone interferes. Not only SO, but
it is evident that electricity Will super
sede the present modes of embalming.
If body can be mummified in five
minutes, as Prof. Edison asserts it can
be, the disposition of the dead, at least
il densely populated communities, will
be changed from the custom now en-
ployed, and the public mausoleum will
take the place of the public burying
ground, not only on account of econo-
MIXING space, but from sanitary consid-
erationS. Mummifying the dead by
electricity will not be as repuIsiye to
persons of tender sensibilities as Gre
mating, not only because of the assOcia-
ton Of ideas, a sentiment, if you please,
but also because by the electrical pro-
Cess the form and features may be pre-
served. As regards the uses to which
electricity may be applied it seems that
the more the discoveries the more we
learn we don't know.

ALL EQUALLY BAD

From the Atchison Champion.
The Wichita EAGLE declares that cop
ton dealing" is sapping the life blood
out of every western farmer, and de-
mands "a national law to prevent a few
gamblers from making a price on farm
products" The Champion heartily sec
onds this demand. "Option dealing"
however, is only one of several things
that are 'sapping the life blood out of
every western farmer" The modern
trust" resulting in vast combinations
of capital, is making the individual clti-
zen, farmer, mechanic, merchant or
business man a mere cipher.
There are bulls as well as
clears" in the grain boards, and
last fall the "bulls'' kept the price of
grain up for months, giving farmers bet
ter figures for their corn and wheat.
Railroad determinations in freight
rates make business investments
uncertain in their results, and
exercises a vast interest in creating
hard times" These disastrous forces
have each their harmful influence. They
are ali sapping the life blood out of the
people, and should be dealt with by
stringent laws, national as well as state.

THE WICHITA CRANK AGAIN.

From the Kansas City Gazette.
Our unknown friend .fKanzan," of the
| Wichita EAGLE, gives US two columns
in that paper, which we reproduce be-
cause he presents some important points
in city building. He says nothing to
change our idea of the possibilities of
numerous commercial centers-we are
still of the opinion that an agricultural
community can sustain leglumately
given number, and that by no possibility
can this number be strained with profit.
And we believe that these commercial
centerpOints Will be graded; for instance.
! as the Kansas Citys at the mouth of the
Kaw now contain 100000 and Wichita
40, 900, so when the Kansas Citys reach
500, 600 Wichita will probably have 100,
600. And SO the graduation viii go on.
When he charges the early settlers of
Kansas City, Kan, or old Wyandotte,
with neglect IN not controlling on this
side of the state line the great CONNER
cial city built up at this point by the
trade of Kansas we think II singular
coincidence that the Ottawa Republican
should appear on the same day with the
following explanations:
Ii was the selfishness of Lawrence
through Senator Lane, that compelled our
first and most important railroad, the
Union Pacific, to commence at point in
Kansas south OF the Kansas river" Had
the word north been put in place of south
| IN this restriction. then Wyandotte would
/ have been 4 city of 30 900 people today and
the site OF Kansas City would now be as
barren OF a city as it was Of attractions
then.
When we witness the fabulous grading
now doing at this point and which has
been going on for twenty years-moving
twelve acres to the average depth of
twenty-siX feet being a few months Job
and only a sample; the centering of the
great number of railroads and their
scramble for track room and belt lines:
the opening of a new cable line every
few months; the great growth III all d.
rections from nonresident capitalists
dropping in and planting their money
without asking, and va ely of other
maryels here induce US 10 adhere to our
idea that the Almighty designed this
city, placing il where it would command
the entire state of Kansas. He did this
before the MisSourian polluted any por-
ton of it. He viii yet save it br

metropolis over on the righteous side of
the line.

Attorney General kellogg, in response
to request from Governor Humphrey,
has given an opinion in which he de-
clares the governor cannot under the
laws of this state issue a pardon without
the application for such clemency
has been approved by the state
board of pardons. The question was
raised by an application to the governor
for an immediate pardon for convict
without reference to the board of
pardons, but the application was re-
jected on the strength of the attorney
generals opinion backed by unbroken
precedent since the enactment of the
law governing the pardoning preroga-
tive of the governor.
