THE State Journal is opposed to an
early adjournment of the Legislature,
in fact, if the Journal could have its
way it would probably keep the law
makers there all the time. AS long as
the Legislature is in session many per-
sons from all parts of the State are
drawn to Columbus, and of course they
spend some money while they are there.
'Eowever, the people in the State at
large would not grieve if the Legislature
never met, especially if all were like the

SOUTHERN WAR CLAIMS.
A Southern Organ Thinks the Time Has
Come For Their Payment-An Esti-
mate of the Men Who Saved
The Union

Durham On. c. Globe.
1t is time now-high noon-to get the
claims of the South prepared, in order
that Democratic Congress, solid and
complete in both branches, with Dem
ocratic President, owing his election to
an always solid and undivided South,
may audit, allow, and pay the just
claims.
And what are the claims? They are
the claims of the fathers and mothers
who not only sent their sons to war to
be moved down by the lead and shell
of the relentless and rapacious North
but who themselves went to work and
either bought or sought to gather sus-
tenance to keep the wolf of hunger from
the door, while the blue coated Yankees
howled and prowled in the hencoops
and said pretty things to the negro
wenches and left their prototypes after
stealing and burning all in sight.
There is no use to mince matters now.
These miserable, sneaking ours
Stole,
Robbed,
Burned,
Plundered
And
Ravished
And the record is not destroyed.
Honorable men who have just claims
against these
Assassins
And
JaniZaries
Should be paid, and they will be paid,
if Heavens justice on earth is done!
And they should be. There should
be no half way measures. There should
be no mealy mouthed business about
such obligations-long overdue.
So let the Yankee
Bummers,
Camp-followers,
Coffee coolers
And
Lustful Libertines
Understand once and for all that the
pension thieves will be choked off now,
and that the money long due the South
ern gentlemen will be paid dollar for
dollar, and they can not check the
sentiment herein expressed.

PUBLIC OPINION.

11o1roR DRINKING AND BUSINESS.
Cleveland Leader.
Much is said at times about the effect
of modern business hustle and hurry in
increasing the craving for stimulants
and the consequent influence upon the
temperance habits of the people, but
there is another phase of the subject
that much more than offsets this view
and is often ov erlooked. The stress of
modern business and its exigencies are
such that a man must have clear head
to deal with them. The brain, clouded
by alcohol, can not hope to compete
with the clear mind of temperate man,
and employers are everywhere awaken
ing to the fact and using every resource
TO induce their men to leave intoxicants
alone. 1t applies to workmen of all
classes and conditions, and the man who
habitually uses alcoholic stimulants is
speedily handicapped by it, whether he
be professional man, book-keeper, a
skilled mechanic, or common day
laborer.
The recent protest of the great Phila-
delphia shipbuilder, Mr.. Edwin 5. Cramp,
against the granting of licenses to four
saloons near his works illustrates the
feeling that is general among large en-
ployers of labor. Mr.. Cramp stated to
the License Court that he objected to
the saloons solely because they had
resulted in many accidents and the
decentralization of our men," He was
also very positive that drunkenness be-
comes more common with the increase
in the number of saloons in the neigh
borhood and declared that the demoral-
ization among the army of men employed
by his company grew rapidly with the
increase in dramshops. This, of course,
is entirely reasonable and is an answer
from practical experience to one of the
familiar and common sophistries of
liquor men.

PURE FOOD IN CONGRESS.

Action Which has Resulted in the Official
Determination of the Best
Baking Powder.
The act of Congress authorizing the
examination of the baking powders has
resulted in a most unprecedented COM
pliment to the Royal Baking Powder.
The tests were made in the Govern
ment Laboratory at Washington, and
the official report shows that the Royal
is superior to all others in leav ening
strength being over thirty per cent.
above the average. The report also
shows the purity of the Royal Powder
and the wholesomeness of it's in
gradients.
+ This is probably the highest compli-
ment of an official character ever paid
to proprietary article, though no
more than the great army Of baking
powder consumers would expect in be-
half of their old friend and favorite.
The result of the official examination,
as thus determined, will, Of course,
make the Royal the standard for
Government pure bases. .z 81.

i The Louisiana Purchase.

In 1902, Napoleon Bonaparte found
himself seriously in want Of funds.
Casting his eyes about for some piece
Of property which could be pawned or
sold, his glance fell upon what was
called Louisiana. Here was a possess
sion whose defence would be a constant
source of expense, being situated in
the Western hemisphere, and subject
to attack by the superior navy of his
enemy, England. Close by was the
United States, to whom it seemed the
province would some day naturally
gravitate. Why not sell? Thomas
Jefferson thought the purchase desir-
able. Napoleon named $l5,00O,000 as
the price, and April 80, 1903, the bar
gain was consummated. It included
the whole country west of the Missis-
sippi river, and north to the British
Possessions, except what was occupied
by Spain,-California, Texas, New
Mexico. etc. It embraced the larger
portion lin most cases ally of what are
now Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Louisi-
ana, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska,
Indian Territory, Colorado, Utah,
Montana, Idaho, Wyoming and Wash
ington. What would the Louisiana
Purchase have been worth in ninety
years without railroads. The lines of
the Burlington Route have been a
great agency in settling and develop
ing many Of these States, and in half
of them it reaches all principal points.

TO CATCH ROGUES.
An Ingenious System of
Identification.
A CHICAGO OFFICERS PLAN
The Distinctive characteristics of SuS-
poets Can Easily Be Tele-

Bertillon, with his system for the identi-
fication of criminals, has a rival in Officer
W. B. Mccain of the central station, Says
the Chicago Tribune. who has submitted his
plan to Inspector Ross with the hope that
it will be adopted by the department.
Under the Bertillon system criminal is
first caught-this part is ndispensable-and
then measurements are taken of his head
and body, which, it is claimed. are unalter-
able Under his system, Officer McCann
claims, the catching comes later. and il is
actually possible, should a man commit a
robbery in Omaha. and straightway take
the train for Chicago, to confront the thief
here with his own portrait, even though he
might be entirely unknown to the police.
The only thing necei sary, according to the
inventor, for the certain detection of the
offender is that the victim should have an
ordinary idea of what his assailant looks
like.

DEPTHS OF SPACE.
Staggering Figures Given by an Eng
Iish Astronomer.


In his last lecture 10 juveniles at the
Royal Institution in London Sir Robert
Ball said that a telegraphlc message would
go seven times around the earth in sec
Ond. and. if Geographic message could be
sent to the moon, it would reach its destina-
ton Ia little more than a second. 1t would
take something like eight minutes TO arrive
at the sun; but how long did they think it
would take TO get to Alpha Centauri, travel
Ing thitheT at 10000 miles a second? Sec
onds, minutes, hours, days, weeks. months,
would not be long enough; 1t would take
not less than three years, travelling all the
time at that tremendous pace, before it
would reach its destination. Ii that was the
case with respect to the nearest Of the stars
what must be said of those which
were farther off? There were stars so re-
mote that II the news of the victory OF Well
lingtOn at Waterloo had been flashed 10
them In 1915 on that celestial telegraph sys-
tenn it would rot have reached them yet,
even If the message had sped at the pace
which he had indicated, and had been
travelling all the time. There were stars
SO remote that if when William the Con-
querOr landed here in 1865 the news Of his
conquest had been DISPATCHED to them, and
II the signals flew over the wire at pace
which would carry them seven times round
the earth in a single second of time, that
news would not nave reached them yet.
Nay, more, if the glad tidings Of that first
Christmas in Bethlehem nineteen centuries
ago had thus been disseminated through
the universe. there were yet stars OF which
astronomers could tell them, plunged into
space in depths so appalling that even the
1892 years that have elapsed since that
event would not have been long enough for
the news TO reach them, though it Travelled
at loO,OO0 miles IN every second.

TASTE SENSE OF ANIMALS.
Results of Experiments Upon the
Lower Order of Animate Nature.

Many experiments have been made in
order to find out what and where the organ
Of taste is in the lower creation, but it is
easier to say where it is not. Crayflsh and
worms seem TO nave very decided prefer
ences in the matter of food, though no
special taste organ has yet been found.
HOLSTERS like decaying food; the crab is
more dainty in its diet.
Snails and slugs show decided prefer
ence for certain kinds of food, as garden
lovers know TO their cost; peas and cab
bage. dahlas and sunflOwers are great
favOritas, but they will not touch the white
mustard. Some prefer animal food, espe-
cialy if rather nigh. Spiders have only
slight sense Of taste; flies soaked In paraf-
fine seem quite palatable to them, though
one species, the diadema, Is somewhat
more particular. and refuses to touch
alcohol in any form whatever.
The antenn3 of insects do not appear to
contain any organ of taste. for wasps and
ants quite readily took into their mouths
poisonous and unpleasant food, even
swallowing enough to make themselves Ill,
while some bees and cockroaches fell a prey
to the temptation of alum, EPSON salts and
other nauSeouS foods placed IN their way.
These substances were not, however, swal-
lowed, but were soon SDat out, the creatures
sputtering angrilv, as if disguised with the
taste.
The proboscis of the f1y and the tongues
of bees and ants are furnished with numer-
Gus delicate hairs set in minute pits; these
are, perhaps. connected with the organ OF
taste, but though the exact locality OF this
senseIin insects is uncertains we knOwthat

groups of cells IN the tongues of animals,
called taste bulbs. form in part the ends or
the organ Of taste. These vary in mum Der,
increasing in the higher animals. They
are very close and exceedingly numerous n
man, while the tongue of even the cow has
some 50, coo taste bulbs.
1t would be interesting to know whether
each special taste eXclteS a special group Of
nerves, and that Oniy-thus corresponding
to the auditory nerves. These taste bulbs
were discovered in 1861. Each one consists
of two kinds of cells, one set forming an
outer protective covering, through an open
ing in which project from five 10 ten Of the
true taste cells. Though important they
are not, apparently. an essential part of the
organ, for birds and reptiles have none, but
neither have they a keen sense Of taste
except, perhaps. the parrot.
A boa-consirictOr that was nearly blind
was once found to be contentedly swallow
ing blanket for dinner instead of rabbit
which was also within reach, and it was
only with great difficulty that ii was forced
TO disgorge this singular article Of food.
a snakes tongue is, therefore, not an
organ of taste, nor is it, as many think, a
sting; it is more probably delicate organ
of
