A serfs of the soil Mr. Kellner has evolved the following regulations and has caused them to be hung in conspicu- ous place for the improvement of the memories of his slaves:

 missal with time checks, by the foreman, pay "G Isignedi sit ~ E.F. KELLNER,
 Proprietor. Mir. Kellner's ten commandments, 1t will be observed, are not easily mis- understood. Some of them are proper but unnecessary, while the rest are un- necessary and improper. In the orig inal they are not numbered, and are so designated here only for purposes of reference.
 Commandment No. 4 sternly pro- hibits public gambling as injurious to the morals of spectators quiet games do not appear to be forbidden. We think MT. Kellner's precautlon in this matter is unnecessary. That repellant sign over the entrance to the Richland stock farms may be supposed to have the effect of breaking any possible stampede by the outside public in the direction of the gambling rooms on the farm.
 The fifth commandment is a waste of wo rds. The matter presented in it would naturally suggest itself to the in- telligent farm laborer.
 The sixth commandment is designed to discourage the practice so prevalent among laborers of eating at frequent and irregular hours.
 The latter clause of the seventh con- mandment is calculated to add empha- sis to the sign which confronts the tray eler on entering and to prove to him that it means what it says.
 The eighth and ninth commandments read together will breed despair in the bosom of a healthy farm hand. One implies that no labor will be performed on Sunday and the other as plainly in- fers that if no man works on that day neither shall he eat. Here is an ap- parent inconsistency of statement that brings one within range of starvation. The inconsistency is, however, over come by system of reasoning which assisted by his digestive apparatus, en- ables the farm hand to see that work on Sunday becomes unavoidable, and he is thus brought under the purview of the eighth com mandment and is saved.
 We have explained the correlation at some length for tn epurpose of deterring enterprising but misguided persons from erecting hotels in the vicinity of Richland stock farms and expecting them to become remunerative by reason of the Sunday patronage of Mir. Kell- ner's farm hands. The price, "15 cents,'' at which MT. Kellner proposes to fur nish meals is alone sufficient to put down competition, even though the beautiful and logical relations which we have pointed out between the eighth and ninth commandments could not be established.
 One other and, we believe, the only other prstext the Gazette offers in sup port of MT. Kellnsr is that he is sel educated man. We did not suspect hin of being open to that accusation. Blu in view of the manner in which hs deal with his employees whatever education he may have acquired has brought witl it discredit and dishonor. He ha failed as an educator.
