DO YOU LIKE SOUP2

Up around Caldwell there is con-
siderable complaint am my farm rs
they are not getting sufficient water
on account of the delusion connected
with the new unit of measurement.
The Tribune says: 1t is suspected
that the cubic foot per second idea
was worked up by the canal com
pames in order that they might
charge more for water without APP
pearing to do so. Instead of doub-
ling the price the supply has been
cut in two, so that the cost to the
farmer per acre is just the same ms
though the price had been doubled.
This is what some OF the canal peo-
pie call getting the soup into the
grangers.
The grangers are preparing to
handle the syringe them selves and
the gentlemen of the canals may
have to take few injections of their
own mixture before the medication
ceases The CHANGERS are not very
expert with that class Of surgical III
struments, but when once they get
hold of the breech end they can
pump soup into rotten proposition
with a deal of vigor and enterprising
tenacitv

STUDY HUMAN INTEREST.

No less a man than Justice Brown,
OF the United States supreme court
(who, by the way, was one Of the
justices in favor of the income taxi,
in an address recently delivered be-
fore the Yale Law School, gave
utterance to the following;
Wherever the proposed business is of a
public or semi-pubiic character and re-
quires special privileges of the State or n
partial delegation OF governmental pow
ers there would seem to be no sound rea-
son why such franchises which are for the
supposed benefit OF the public should not
be exercised directly by the public Such
at least, Is the tendency in modern legis-
lation IN nearly every highly civilized
state but our own, where great corporate
interests. by parading the dangers of
paternalsm and socialism. have succeeded
IN securing franchises which properly be-
long to the public.
While | have no doubt Of the ultimate
settlement OF our social problem upon a
reasonable and judicious basis there are
undoubtedly certain perils which menace

municipal corruption, corporate greed and
the tyranny OF labor.
Now, who will say that the broad,
vital question of the irrigation of
millions OF acres of land, and the
future contentment of hundreds of
thousands OF agricultural population,
is not one of the subjects coming un-
der those remarks. 1t is time that
Wen whose opinions spring only from
the fountain OF natural prejudice and

on private capital for all public neces-
stiles, began to analyze and study the

Palm Sunday.

Yesterday, Palm Sunday, was the first
day of Holy Week, upon which joy and
sorrow both appear in the liturgy of the
church. The triumphant entry of Christ
into Jerusalem, and His greeting by the
joyous multitude, who, strewing His
path with garments and branches, hailed
Him as the Son of David, is commemo-
rated by the blessing and distribution Of
palms, the singing of hosannas and state
ly professions. The cloud which, through
all this acknowledgment of His mission,
was already darkening the path Of the
Son of God-His trial and crucj6xion-
is represented In the chanting of the his
tory of the Passion, reminder to the
people the day, though celebrating joy
Gus event, is yet the beginning of the
most solemn, the most eventful week Of
Lent. The services held at st. Mary 3
Catholic and st. Anne's Protestant Epis-
copal Churches were very impressive.
The congregations were very large. The
affairs of the churches were decorated
with palms, and the members were each
given a piece of palm.

ST. JOHNS VICTORIOUS.
The cadets BADLY Defsnted.

Never since st. Johns won a hard
fought state championship-on some foot
ball held has there been the wild enthu-
siasm on the college campus as there
was Saturday afternoon. The cause
was the victory over the naval cadets by
the surprising score of 10 to 0.
The battery work of Jones and Hill
leary was par excellence. Jones allowed
but four hits and struck out ~. while
Hilleary handled difficult fouls and
speedy shoots with equal facility. The
whole st. John 5 teim found the slow
curves of Henderson, the Academy
pitcher, or walked TO first. Tull, how
ever, excelled with the stick. Brady at
short handled some good flies.
After the game, the collegians went
Wild. They cheered the members Of
the team individually, and displayed
their JOY In every way. A large pen
nant was displayed from the flag pole
OF Mcdowell Hall, the main college
building, displaying the glorious score
TO all the city. 1t is fair to say, how
ever, that the cadets were somewhat
handicapped.
Owing to the election of a second
classman as captain, the first classmen
have boycotted the team, and this de-
prlves them of the services of at least
two men. Captain Littlefield was un-
able to play, but directed his team from
the line. The cadets were all Young,
and showed themselves to be incapable
OF competing with the fast collegians.
However, with little encouragement,
they put up a plucky game, and never
gave up. This 10 the first time within
recollection that st. Johns has ever
won from their rivals.
