The tracks can be easily laid at the sides

would quickly increase the population OF
a country neighborhood. They might
now be established in many localities

That live and lively state of Texas is
taking the lead in heading off surplus
cotton production. The Texas Acreage
association meets and considers what
will be the best farm products for agri-
culturists to go into at different times
ard in different parts of the state. At
late meeting in Austin committee was
formed of one member from each con-
gressional district to draft an address to
Texas farmers recommending them to
raise less cotton, but not more of that
other Indigenous American product
named by General Butler in one of his
historic sayings. On the contrary, they
were advised to replace the diminished
cotton acreage by varied farm products
Thus the price of cotton would be main
tanned. while the Texas farmer would be
raising upon his own soil many of the
high priced crops for which he has been
accustomed to exchange his low priced
cotton. If the whole south would do
this, it would increase her agricultural
wealth greatly.

There is one pure food reform that ia
most imperative now at the approach Of
warm weather, and that is in connection
with milk. Every year in the uncom-
monty healthy city of Philadelphia 5000
babies die for want of good milk. Milk
dealers adulterate the milk they sell,
and dishonest dairymen confessedly care
not a,jot for the quality of the milk they
put on the market so long as they can
get the quantity. 1t is not enough that
a state should pass laws against the mere
adulteration of milk by foreign sub
stances.
1t is also necessary to provide against
selling skimmilk for fresh and against
selling even fresh milk that does not
come up to a certain standard of rich
ness under chemical test. Boards of
health everywhere should take this mat
ter into immediate consideration. Some
of the states have already excellent milk
laws, among them New York, and her
law could be adapted to suit other local
tiles.
Meantime, if milk dealers and dairy
men could be forced to feed their own
children on the fluid they distribute with
out any conjunction of conscience to
other peoples children, it might be one
way of touching their leathern sensibil-
tiles.

Mourning Stationery.

Few things give IA more unpleasant
shock to a sensitive person than to have
a card sent to him which has black
border around it half an inch deep or to
get letter in an envelope with a like
border The first moment until he chances
at the name upon the card or opens the
envelope is so fraught with frightful pos
sibilities that it becomes real agony. The
mind flies involuntarily to absent ones
he loves most tenderly. The thought
stabs him like knife: What if
The effect, while not so startling, is
fully as unpleasant when in car or at
church the beholder's eye falls upon a
whole family clad in dead, terrible black
from head to foot 1t is a horror to hui
manity this awful fashion of wearing
mourning 1t makes half the world a
grievous, saddening sight to the other
half. And when. as is sometimes the
case the whole matter of putting on
mourning apparel is mere piece Of
vanity, it becomes not only a melancholy
reminder to the spectator, but down.
right sinful hypocrisy. There is woe
enough in every human breast for itself
without constantly being reminded of
others woe. 1t is selfish to obtrude our
unhappiness upon others.
If the dictates of fashion require that
mourning must be worn, at least let us
have none Of that wretched mourning
stationery, those frightful i'll omened
black cards and envelopes, that shock
and unnerve sensitive persons. At least,
too. let those who wear the weeds of woe
carry white handkerchiefs.

dict that Uncle Jerry himself will take

1t is gradually becoming recognized

cured. But the best way to treat it is in
the special hospitals now provided for it,
In the progress of medical science it has
become recognized, too, that consump-
ton is contagious disease, communica-
BILE through germs in the air and in
food. In the special hospitals for con-
sumptives repeated cures and apparently
permanent ones have been made. When
it is remembered that more people are
carried out of life by this disease than
by any other, the fact that those on
whom it fastens are now frequently
cured sheds a ray of brightness upon the
dark cloud of hopelessness which usually
attends this ailment to the end.

says that the diamonds mined from these
fields since then, if put together, would
weigh more than 10 tons. Their value
is something like $3.50, 900. If it is
true that most of these stones have been

Colonel Peterson is undoubtedly
the most puissant and potential
individual who smote Colonel w.

death of the bear. The colonel is
beyond a reasonable peradventure

patients. But hitherto he has been

readily recognized-he is a holy

EVEN a low sense of fairness, de-
cency and gratitude ought to close
the mud guns Of the Times Demo-
GRAFT against the publisher of this
paper. It is a matter Of record
that The TRIBUNE gave one Of the
owners Of that paper a support Of
acknowledged value, during the
late election, for the Office Of treas
urer. This assistance was render
ed, as to the rest of the republican
ticket, without hope Of reward. In
MI. Barnes case the advantage
lay distinctly in another direction.
In view of this, what excuse can
that paper offer for it's contempti-
BILE and churlish course since cleo
ton? It stands now as a self
convicted migrate, seeking by I'M
der-handed methods to undermine
and falsely represent this paper
an unmerited insult that will be
resented vigorously. Be as manly
as you can.

IT is difficult to comprehend why
Times Democrat should attempt to
malign a contemporary whose pol
itical integrity is above reproach,
unless it is to attract attention to
its own recent squirt Of party zeal,
which is no doubt largely traceable
to the fact that one of its owners
was a candidate for the best paying

COLONEL PETERSON pretends
that The TRIBUNE is dissatisfied
with the way the "Times-D Democrat
run the late campaign" In the
first instance we deny most en-
~phatically the insulting assumption
that the Times Democrat "run''
the campaign. Secondly, we do
not make a habit Of meddling with
the affairs Of our contemporaries,
as the impudent and irresponsible
hired Johe of the Times Democrat
persists in doing. Hence our COM
plete non-concern as to the course
of that paper in the last campaign.
But we will state, in conclusion,
that the mendacious, malignant
and persistent assault on the indie
pendent candidate for treasurer
was unmanly, cowardly and un-
called for, and especially contemp-
tible and dirty under the circum-
stances. 1t is decidedly unbecom-
ing a gentleman whose lips have
been glued to a public teat ever
since his advent into Red Willow
county, and who will shortly enter
upon a two years further lease, to
SO persistently and scurrilously
assault those who have been fact
ors in his success.
