supposition since the first day that Judge
Elliott appeared before the board that the
men he was working in the interests of
were no others than Baron Jermanowski
and Messrs Deiterich and Benedict. Mr..

mouth shut. so far as giving expression to
the truth or falsity of these statements Is
concerned, and has replied to oil questions
about it that when the proper time came
he would reveal the names of his clients.

The opinion that the Baron Jerman-

TO FEEDS,


some Thoughts Which Are Certainly
Worth Serious Consideration.
The prices of feed bid fair to be high
the coming winter, and such will con.
time TO lr~the case every winter, ms
long as there is such u tire mendous de-
mand for all sorts of millstuifs, on the
part of dairy farmers, all over this
broad land. The dairymen are all RIGHT
IN their ideas of feeding well, but thew
are all wrong in not growing more OF
their own feed.
Wheat is way down in the lowest
notch we have seen in thirty years, and
bran climbing up in price every dav.
We are not certain, but those farmers
who are well situated to do it had bet.
ter buy the wheat by the carload and
get 1t ground at the custom mill and
iced the branand middlings, selling the
flour for what they can realize.
If we were in northern Dakota az
Minnesota we would not sell wheat at
hity cents a bushel, if we had good
cows to feed it to, and butter thirty
one cents a pound in Chicago. We be-
lieve there arc four pounds of butter in
Il bushel of wheat fed TO a good COW.
with good r~oughage in addition.
But whether in Dakota or New York
everywhere the dairy farmer is at the
mercy of the feed vender. This would
not be so if the majority set seriously
work to produce their own feed, in
form or other The mischief is.
the most of farmers stop feed when
prices OF feed go high, no matter what
the price of butter is. What n lot of
education we all do need on this feed
question. There is so little real four.
Ing on it-so little really studied out
by the dairy farmers by which thew
can figure.

SENATORIAL ELECTIONS.
struggles of the Republicans to Retain
CONTROL nf the Senntc.

struggles of the Republicans to Retain
Coatrol Of the senate.
The threatened conflict in several
states vcr the election of United
States senators may be regarded as a
present evil, but there is little doubt
that it win prove an ultimate good.
by fixing the attention Of the country
upon the opportunities for corruption
afforded by the present system Of
eIecting senators, it will force and
hasten the adoption Of the amendment
to the federal constitution proposed by
senator Palmer, Of Illinois, making
senators elective by the people Of the
states.
The adoption Of such an amendment
has been foresecn aud regarded as in.
cyltable Tor some years past. II has
been made inevitable by the election
to tie senate, in a number of states, of
miIiionatfos without marked qualihca-
ion or o%apabilitv, whose election. in
some cases, has been clearly proved to
have been the result of bribery. Pub
lie condemnation Of the caucusplan has
been growing rapidly Of late years, but
the proposed amendment might have
failed Of adoption by thrce.fourths of
the state legislatures for some wears to
come but for the object lessons now
presented in the northwestern states.
There is no longer room for doubt
that the republican party, still acting
as the agent Of the p|lutocrats who con-
tfo.!cd 1t in the late campaign, is to
make Il desperate and determined
struggle in the legislatures of five
states, with a view Of retaining con-
troll Of the United States senate. The
interests which are behind the
republicans believe that in retaining
control Of that body they will succeed,
alter all, in defeating the popular de-
maud for u reform in the fiscal polic;cs
Of government.
This is one Of tie boldest and most
audacious schemes to defeat the popu-
lar will the country has ever seen. 1t
IS well for men of all parties to be on
guard against such attempts to sub.
Icrl popular government and p~crvcrt
it to wrong uses. Doubtless the men
who desire to see Il senate majority
hostile to tho spirit OF reform are not
all in n party. 1t is a part of their
politics to divide their strength be-
tween both. But the fact remains that
is to the democratic party that the
country looks to maintain the sub.
as well as the form of popular
government. 1t can be relied upon to
meet the expectations of the people.
Whatever the results in these con
tests the fact of their existence will
serve to accentuate the demand for the
adoption of the Sixteenth amendment.
That twill be adopted, and that soon,
is no longer much room to doubt.

and understand and trust themselves,

carter ana ms tCtefic Schcming to Retain
Control of the United States senate.
Some comment has been caused by
the notice for a meeting ut New York,
sent out by Chairman Carter to mem.
bers of the republican national com.
mittee. Those who received the no.
tees declined TO say where the meet
ing was TO take place. Sam ~Fessenden,
of Connecticut, is at the Hoffman
house. He declined to speak of the
meeting, and seemed surprised to learn
that Mr., Carriers notice had leaked out.
W. j. Campbell, OF Chicago, has been
in town within the last few DAYS. All
that he would say was that he had cx.
pected to hear from Mr.. Carter. 1t
was ascertained that Mr.. Carter and
his brethren are TO meet for the pur.
pose of cooperating with the senate
committee of republicans, who are in.
terested in maintaining q republican
majority in the United States senate.
For a week or more after election
most Of the republican committee, to-
gether with a number of republican
United States senators, gave out that
they wanted the democrats to have the
senate; that they would not lift their
hands to have it otherwise, and they
talked in eighteen different dialects OF
the happiness they would experience
in watching the democrats have con-
troll of the senate. But change has
come over the spirit of their dream.
They now propose to make a bitter
fight against the party that has re.
ceived such positive popular indorse-
ment, and the committee when it meets
expects to receive some tips from Car
ter on the manner Of keeping the sen.
ate, by fair means or foul, within The
