Paying the Fiddler.

Those who chuckled and chortled
with approving delight last summer
over the big Doodle fund the Republi-
cans we're raising "to fight the devil
with fire" are about to indulge in the
less pleasing but inevitable exercise Of
laughing on the other side Of the mouth.
The e-fund business is matter of
credits as we'll as Of debts. The man
who pays down his money to help buy
an election expects return with
interest after the election is won.
At the hearing on tariff schedules be-
fore the Ways and Means committee
the first installment of the huge
debt to the subscribers to the un-
necessary and corrupting Republican
campaign fund Of nearly two millions
falls due, will be presented for payment
and will be paid. The first installment
is pretty big, as 1t includes the indebted
ness to all the protected pools, trusts
and monopolies. But it is by no means
all or even half Of the full debt. Indeed,
the debt is so big that it is doubtful
whether it can all be paid. And the
attempt to pay will almost certainly
cost the party its hold on the govern
ment.
But the party must do it's best. These
debts to campaign contributors are

machine fails to work, one Of the re.
psirers is instantly beside it, and, dis
mounting, remedies the defect in o
trice, unless 1t proves to be serious.
Thus the resping goes on with the ut.

Under a New Name.

Ino puDIIGnerS or This journal have
decided, in beginning new volume
to change its name from the Ladies'
Home Companion to the WomGn'S
Home Companion. They are aware
that 1t is not usually q ssfe policy to
rechristen a publication after 1t has
gained distinct prestige and million
Of readers, but in this case the depar.
ture Ia not radical one and does not
interfere with the essential character
OF the title. In fact, 1t Ia merely q cor
rection of very common vulgarism.
The magazine will continue to be a
"home companion" In name and In
fact, and 1t is believed that the substl.
tuition Of the word "womsn's" for that
of "ladles" will appeal to the good
sense and good taste of all readers of
both sexes.
There are excellent reasons for this
belief. The indisCriminate use and
abuse of the term ''lady" has robbed
1t OF so much Of its meaning that 1t
has been In a measure tsbooed by those
who deserve the title In It's best sense.
The noblest ambition Of our end-of-
the-Century feminlnity is to be q
"Womsn." In this she shows broad
ening appreciation Of her own impor.
tsnce in the wOrld-s growing dispo.
Sition to take herself seriOusly-a
courageous determination to rise above
the coddling shsms and fiCtions with
which society has fettered her. "Wo-
man" is an honest, Anglo.Ssxon word,
and has no synonym. The use of
''lady" as a synonym for "womsn" 10
vulgar, and ls to be avoided except in
address. 1t was Lowell who said In
his inimitsble BiglOw Papers: "I ad-
NIT that our abuse Of the word is vii.
lainous. 1 know Of an orator who once
said in a public meeting where bOnnets
that the ladies' were
last at the cross and first at the tombP"
In revising the title Of the CompG1s-
ION, therefore, no apology seems to
be necessary unless it be for the tar
diness of the revision. 1t is done In |
the interest Of common sense and good
English. And IL that were not enough |
there would still be another good res-
son for the change. 1t Les In the sim

conduct Of 70, 5,O00.scre farm from a
publication Of the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company. 1t shows how
combinations and corporations may
even yet force the individual farmer
out of business. The report follows:
"MessrS. George W. Cass and Benjs-
min P. Cheney, both heavy capitalists
and directors In the railroad company,
having faith in the fertility Of the
land, determined to test its capacity
for wheat production. They first
bought, near the cite of the present
town Of Cssselton, 1880 acres Of land
from the railroad company, and then
secured the intervening government
sections with Indian scrip, thus obtain.
ing compact farming grounds of enor-
NOUS area. Mr.. Oliver Dslrymple, an
experienced wheat farmer, was en-
gagged to manage the property; and In
June, 1876, he turned his first furrow,
blowing 1880 acres, and harvested his
first crop In 1876. The acreage was In.
creased In each succeeding year, until
In 1882 there were not less than 1000
acres under cultivation. This Inn.
mense farm does not lie In one body.
One part of it, known as the Grandin
farm, is situated In Trail county,
thirty miles north Of Cssselton. The
entire area embraced by the three
tracts Ia $4,000 acres. Farming opera
tions conducted on SO gigantic scale
seem almost incredible to persons who
are only familiar with the methods Of
the older and more settled States. In
managing the affairs of bonanza
farm the most rigorous system is en-
ployed, and the cost of cultivation
averages about 81 per acre less than
smaller estates. The plan adopted by
Mr.. Dalrymple and all the other
bonanza men Is to divide the land
into tracts of 5000 acres each, and
these are sub6iVided into farms of
1900 acres each. Over each 5000 acres
q superintendent is placed, with q
book keeper, headquarters building, and
q storehouse for supplies. Each sub.
division Of 1000 acres is under the
charge Of foreman, and is provided
with its own set of buildings, compris.
ing boarding houses for the hands,
stables, a granary, a machinery hall,
and blacksmith's shop, all connected
with the superintendent's Office by
telephone. Supplies Of every descrip-
tion are issued only upon reQuisition to
the several divisions. Tools and ma.
chinery are bought by the carload
from manufacturers; farm animals are
procured at st. Louis and other princi-
pal markets; stores Of every description
for feeding the army of laborers are
purchased at wholesale; and the result
Of the thorough system and intelligent
economy In every department is found
In the fact that wheat ia raised and de-
liVered at the railroad at q cost varying
little from IS cents per bushel. The
net profit on q bushel of wheat Is sell
dom less than 10 cents, and the average
yield per acre may safely be put at af-
teen bushels, although 1t often exceeds |
that quantity.

Mr.. c. S. Desky, of Bruce Waring q
Co., today completed arrangements
with Frank Hustace whereby the Ala
pal street extension is to be opened up
from South street nearby King and
running in southerly direction Ia
the new bicycle track and grounds,
which are now being built at Kewal
The new street is $50 feet in length
and forty feet wide. The people VIII
now have direct route to the grounds
by means of the new road. 1t will be
saving of nearly half mile in dis
tance.
The work on the Kewalo bicycle
track is being pushed with remarkable
rapidity. Mr.. Desky says that the
grounds will be completed within the
next six weeks or two months. The
track will be a third mile and will be
one of the most novel style. That ii
will be an exceedingly fast track i,
the opinion of every bicyclist in the
city who has investigated the plans
and grounds.
Inside the track will be large
pleasure pond, in the center of which
will be miniature island, twenty by
thirty feet. On this island will be
erected the highest flagstaff in Homo
lulu. The grounds will be beautified
with plants, flowers and greens.
This property will soon be turned
over to the Honolulu Road Club or
some other organization which may
be formed to further the interests of
cycling. A grand stand and club
house will be built. When this has
been accomplished the Kewalo bicycle
park will be one of the attractive spots
of the city.

\ late London Mail says: "It will
be interesting news to the world in

particular, that Her Majesty the
Queen is total abstainer from al
coholic liquors and has been such for
at least three years. The information
comes from such high source that
there can be no question as to its ac-
curacy. For many years the Queen
partook of wine and spirits in sparing
quantities, but some three years ago,
! by way of experiment, she abandoned
their use entirely. Since then not Ii
drop of Intoxicating beverage has
passed her lips"
IL is not without significance that
Her Majesty sent to Lady Richardson,
