We BAvE before noted in these col

upon the announcement of the deci-
sion of the Supreme Court declaring
traffic agreements illegal, introduced a
bill in the Senate to undo the decision

Senator Harris of this state, now pro-
poses an amendment, providing that
before they shall be authorized to
make any such agreements, the roads
shall submit to the Interstate Com
MERGE Commission a full and complete
schedule of the rates, classifications,
and charges which are to be enforced

WHAT IS A DEMAGOaUE.

The word demagogue is ore suscep-
tible of many varieties and shades of
meaning, Its derived from two Greek
words Simplifying to lead the people and
anciently any great leader or orator
was called a demagogue with no
thought of reprOach. Now it has come
to mean one who leads by playing upon
the prejudices and passions of men and
is applied with great lOoseness and Law
ishness. AS Il usual thing the greater
the demagogne, according to its modern
definition, the quicker he is to set up
his bark at anv one who opposes his
schemes and methods. 1t is often
amusing to see some popinsuuilt of a
politician who THINKS he feels leader
ship circulating through his space
which in men the almighty has desig-
mated for the dome of thought, mount
rostrum and denOunce as dema-
gogue, some man Vt independent mind
who dares declare as his own conVic-
ton some thought which will not find
4 dozen supporters. In fact it appears
that he who strikes the unpopular chord
and takes up with some idea which
FROM the nature of things can neither
bring profit nor emolument, is the FIRST
man to be- branded rs u demagOgue.
Kansas has many men who would
fit snug into cur definition of dema-
Rogue but the one for whom Webster
seems to have especially forged and
trimmed definition is an enshrined
mumper from Mcpherson by the name
of Swenson. Passing in the habit of
holy man ana assuming the prestige of
the learned, he has drdbbed his robes
and titles in some of the palmiest
pieces of political chicanery. affe.t-

THE wheat outlook, both as to price
and yield, is now better than for sew
eral years. A winter such as this, fol-
lowed by wet spring with the ground
so soaked as at present, almost guar
antees a crop. To be sure, a portion
in some localities has been destroyed
by early winter freezes, but it still
leaves a fair acreage, taking the
country over. The total of production
in wheat has been growing less for
several years until now the visible
supply is little more than half what it
was few years ago. This with the
war fury in Europe with the pOssibil.
ity Of it becoming serious, is sufficient
to make prices stiff with a fair pros

PERHAPS now again when the town

bank. is a good time to say something
about the question of furnishing pro-
lection and safety to depOsitors. The
GAZETTE has to TIE greatest possible
extent, without beingln danger of max
ing it a hobby, advocated some scheme
by which the depOsitOrs should have
their money guaranteed, Different
plans are suggested. One is to require
the bank to give bond for deposits.
This would be an improvement, but
bonds of this character are apt to be
somewhat evanscent. Another plan is
for the state to levy a tax upon the
banks in proportion to their deposits
for a revenue fund to pay depOsitOrs
in defunct banks, This would prot {.
ably be declared unconstitutional.
unless adopted bv an initiative and
referendum, which provision we un.
fortunately have not. A plan which
to us seems feasible, though we have
not heard it suggested, would be to ap.
ply the same principle to deposits that
under the national banking act is ap-
piled to the bank currency. Compel
each bank to keep on hand securities
Of class either denominated by the
law or to be approved by the bank
commissioner. rs a reserve fund, the
proceeds of which are to be forfeited
to the depositors in sufficient amount
IN case OF failure, to pay in full.
Postal savings banks of course are the
real remedy, but they can only be
reached through the general govern
ment, and that is too far away. Some
thing should be done without waiting
for all that machinery to be got IN
