An Exploded Theory.

1t has never been scientifically dem
o%nstrated that fish and other %phosphor-
ic foods can appreciably improve the
brain and mind. Fishermen, for ex-
ample, and fishmongers, who may be
supposed to live largely on fish, have
never shown themselves to be in any
measurable. degree more intellectual
than their neighbors. The truth is that
the particular food which best agrees
with the. particular individual, and
which best maintains his general
health at a high level is the best for
the brain and every other organ Of the
body. ~ The. Hospital :,

THE EXPERIMENT STATION.
1t Morgant0wn. Makes a Good showing
According To Secretary Morton.

Washington, Feb. 20.-Secretary
Of Agriculture Morton has sent TO the
Senate report on the operations OF
the Agricultural Experiment Stations
in the different States during the past
year. Speaking of the West Virginia
station the report says:
"The West Virginia Station is doing
useful work and concentrating its eff
forts in comparatively few dimes. 1t
is developing the scientific as well as
the practical side OF its operations.
The scope Of its work will be material
ly enlarged by the addition of the field
and feeding experiments. The univer-
sity with which the Station is connect
ed is prospecting and its reorganization
on a progressive basis will without
doubt be to the advantage of the Sta
tion.n
The work at the Station, according
to the report, included analysis OF fer
tilizers, chemical studies, especially of
potatoes; studies of plant diseases, and
chronological investigation, specially
of forest insects. The publications Of
the Station during the year included
pamphlets on commercial fertilizers
potatoes, tests of different varieties,
ETC., and the result OF experiments for
treating potato scrab. The income of
the Station for the year was $22, 355.

A Unique Country where the Skies are
almost Never Cl0uded, while the
air is Cool and Bracing,
like Perpetual Spring.

As an anomalous southern resort,
by reason of the fact that there one
may escape summer heat no less than
winter cold, New Mexico is rapidly be-
coming famous. Averaging through
out the entire territory 5000 feet in
altitude above sea-level, and charac-
terized by dry air which, unlike a
humid atmosphere, is incapable of
communicating heat, the temperature
In midsummer remains at delight
fully comfortable degree through the
day, and at night becomes invariably
brisk and bracing. The sunshine is
almost constant, yet the most violent
out-of-door exertion may be undertake
en- without fear of distressful conse-
quences. Sunstroke or prostration
are absolutely unknown there. 1t is
an ideal land for a summer outing.
Its climate is prescribed by reputable
physicians as specific for pulmonary
complaints, and the medicinal Hot
Springs at Las Vegas are noted for
their curative virtues. The most
sumptuous hotel in the west, the
Montezuma, is located at these springs.

Honesty and the Trusts.

The lshmaelite Of New York jour
nalism prints editorially in his viva
cious organ the following remarka-
BILE statement of opinion: s'There
can be no legal warfare against
trusts that doesn't strike at the
root of business, the foundation of
prosperity" On the same page is a
letter from correspondent, who
seems to have found congeniaI out
let, and from it the following sample
pessimistic queries are extracted.
as material success in life the re-
suit of the strictest rules of honesty?
Isn't rigorous honesty the quality
of a weak rather than of strong
mind? Doesn't the Bible, in
example, if not in precept, teach
that success follows trickery?" etc.
The eminent journalist in ques-
ton gives no formal answer to these
questions, but it is significant CO.
incidence that he filings forth in an
other department the bold assertion
that war against trusts strikes at
the foundation of prosperity.
The belief that the success of
trusts is based ON the same princi-
pies. which underlie all business
prosperity involves an assent to the
strength of the dreary and terrible
doubts expressed by the anxious
propounder of moral conundrums
Let the accidental or occasional eff
feet of the trust be what it may, it's
principle involves the creation of
monopoly; the sitting of competi-
ton; the concentration of all batter
les of capital in the hands OF few;
the crushing out of innumerable
smaller enterprises; the exercise of
gigantic and almost irresponsible
power; the attainment of it's ends by
wholesale corruption when necessa-
ry to subdue the forms of law to its
uses. That there has been such
tremendous rising tide throughout
the land against such organizations,
which has compelled in so many
cases Legislative investigation and
enactment, and that this feeling has
not been confined. to hoi polloi, but
that it has been shared by many of
the most experienced economists and
statesmen-such indications are
quite conclusive of a genuine and
deep-seated revolt against the prin-
ciples and methods of trusts. If the
same laws are at the bottom of all
business prosperity which effect the
success of trusts, then business in
all its qualifications is indeed gi-
gantic system of fraud, trickery and
overreaching by fair means or foul.
That such casual elements have ex-
listed and will always exist in bust
ness is lamentable truth. The OBJ
Grafton of the trust is only their
contamination on a great scale with
unrestricted force.-Journai.

Hanna Gains the Senatorship.

Much more significance than APP
pears on the surface is in Governor
BushnelPs announcement that he
will appoint Mark Hanna to Senator
Sherman's seat. 1t is the consum-
nation of one of the most discredit-
able intrigues ever carried on in A
merican politics, and consumma-
ton all the more evil and dangerous
because a President elect of the
United States has submitted to be
used as a club by the man to whose
money and whose daring he owes
the Presidency.
The transaction would have been
natural enough, perhaps, if McKin-
ley had been elected Sheriff, for ex-
ample, and Hanna had desired to be
put on the police force, say. Then
nobody would have been very great
ly shocked if Hanna had said: II put
up the money for your campaign. 1
did the fine work for you. Ielected
you. Now you are therefore in a
position to force the chief to make
me a soundsman. It's only decent.
It's only common gratitude" But
there is something about the Chief
Magistracy of the nation, certain
dignity, majesty, it may be, that
renders such bargain abhorrent
and makes every intelligent and
right thinking man uncomfortable
to hear of it.
Nor is this the worst of the mat
ter. In order to serve Hanna's am
bition Mckinley found it necessary
to propitiate George B. Cox, the
boss of Cincinnati, man whom he
has frequently attacked on the
ground that Cox is corruptionist.
Cox, of cousse, wanted the Federal
patronage in his part of the State:
and if he should get it he might be
willing to persuade Foraker to order
Bushnell to appoint Hanna. Hanna
is to be appointed; he could be APP
pointed in no other way than his;
the inference, therefore, is irresista-
BILE that Mckinley "propltiated"
Cox.
1t is nasty mess, and does not
have the effect of reassuring those
who have feared continuance of Han
mas domination of Mckinley or
those who have suspected that Nc
Kinley is only clay model of a
man.

The man who eats because he is
hungry is, thus far, on level with
the brutes The man who stops eat
ing the moment his hunger is APP
peased is the wise man. Nature
needs no more food than she calls
for. Continued excess brings about
indigestion or dyspepsia, with loss
of flesh, strength, sleep, ambition
and mental power, and an accumula-
ton of aches, pains and many dan
gerous local maladies.
The stomach now can do nothing
alone. We must appeal to some ar
tificially digested food which can
also digest other foods. That is to
say, we must use the Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial. The effect is prompt
and cheering. The chronic pain and
distress ceases. Appetite presently
revives. Flesh and vigor gradually
comes back, and the sufferer recov-
ers. but he must be careful in future.

nation of hog, highwaymen and har-

pricked by jealousy. Whether the

friends of the new county made nc
bones about the use of money to

and they were minus their good
stuff, they began to talk out loud.
They declared that they had paid

flied the amount per. | was told
this evening that one member only
got ten dollars for his vote This
looks like a very small sum, but il
must be remembered that this is a
Republican Legislature and most OF
the members are amateurs. They
will know better next time, and also
know how to charge more, if they
ever get back.
A prominent Republican politician
who is high in the councils of his
party, and whose means of informa-
ton are second to none told me last
night that he had never dreamed OF
such condition of affairs as exists
here. In giving expression to his
opinion of things connected with
Legislation he was more than profuse
in the use of discredited adjectives.

hold up in this Legislature. / never
saw anything like it. They he did
not particularize the they are worse
than highwaymen. Corruption is
open and notorious And great
deal more he said that l cannot re-
peat. If should merely mention
this gentleman's name the peo-
pie would stand aghast that one so
high should speak so of his political
colleagues. Street talk and flying
rumor more than bear out what has
been said, and where there is so all
fired much smoke there must be a
little fire.
One of the things the Legislature
is determined to do is to take every
public institution in the State en-
tirely out of the hands of the Demo
Gratis. Not one will be left to tell the
tale if they have their way.
Bills are rushed through under a
suspension of the rules authorizing
a reorganization of all the State in
stitutions, and providing that direc-
tors or regents, shall not be appoint
ed under the new dispensation until
after the 10th of March. This is to
hold over the appointments uutil af-
ter Atkinson becomes Governor. Bills
have been rushed through creating
new boards of nine directors for
both the insane asylums, and a new
board for the penitentiary. Cover
nor MacCorkle vetoed them of course
and the Legislature promptly passed
them over the veto. Every Demo
crat about these State properties is
to be fired out.
