Democrats who are disposed to lis
ten to the popular clamor about what
is termed government by injunction"
and other protests against the Fedral
courts will be interested in the utter
ances of that life long Democrat, who
was honored by president Lincoln
more than third of a century ago
with an appointment to the Supreme
Bench. Stephen j. Field. In his let
ter to his associates announcing his
retirement from the bench, Justice
Field says
'.As look back over the more than
a third Of a century that ! have sat on
this bench. am more and more and
more impressed with the immeasur-
able importance of this court Now
and then we hear it spoken of as an
aristocratic feature of a republican
government. But it is the most dem
ocratic of all Senators represent
their States and Representatives their
constituents, but this court stands
for the whole country, and as such it
is truly of the people, by the people,
and for the people. 1t has indeed no
power to legislate. 1t cannot appro-
pirate a dollar Of money. It carries
neither the purse or the sword. but it
possesses the power Of declaring the
law and in that is found the safe
guard which keeps the whole mighty
fabric Of government from rushing to
destruction This negative power,
the power Of resistance, i the only
safety Of popular government.

REMARKABLE CORN FIELD.
Former Bed of Lake Produces ZOO |
Bushels to the Acre.

Former bed of Lake Produces zoo
Bushels to the Acre.
Prof. Thomas L. Cox, who recently
returned from Morrilton, says crops are
unusually good in that vicinity, and
prosperity is knocking at the door of
every citizen He says there is one
cornfeld near Morrilton that will pro-
duce 200 bushels to the acre. This,
says the Little Rock (Ark.) Democrat,
is a remarkable statement, and yet he
declares that it is true. Until a year
or so ago there was a lake near Morrill,
ton covering about 10000 acres. When
the big floods came two years ago, an
opening was made by the surging wa
ters which carried off all the water of
this lake when the floods subsidized. The
bed of the lake dried up and left the
richest soil the world ever saw. It is
ten feet deep, and nothing the River
Nile ever produced could excel it. This
year Mills and Haley have a crop of
corn on about 1000 acres of this land
They sowed the corn broadcast like
wheat, and the stalks are as strong as
sapings. and scores of Shoots" are
also loaded down. 1T is the most re-
markable corn crop ever produced in
the world" declared Prof. Cox, and, to
make the story even more interesting.
he ended il by declaring that "'coon"
was caught between the stalks, and, be-
ing unable to extricate itself because
they were so thick, was killed by those
who came upon it.

WHAT ARE WE HERE FOR p"
Question AS to sunday Fishing Settled

Question as to Sunday Fishing Settled
by the Ministers.
Some two or three years ago party
of anglers, including a minister as one
of their number, were fishing in the
North Woods, and when Sunday came
the question arose whether the party
other than the minister should not re-
frain from fishing, out of respect to
his feelings, says Forest and Stream.
One of the party, however, made bold
TO ask him whether he thought that it
was wicked to fish on Sunday, and he
declined to express any opinion, on the
ground that he was there as an angler
and not by virtue of his calling, and
that every person must act according to
the dictates of his own conscience He
referred, however, to the following Incl
dent which had occurred not long be-
fore within his personal knowledge.
4 man and woman called at the house
Of minister for the purpose Of being
married After going through the pre-
part of the service, the minis
ter asked the usual question: DO you,
John, take this woman to be your law
full, welded wife?" This was met by
the rejoinder; What in thunder do
you suppose l came here for?"
The party other than the minister
went fishing, while he remained at
home with ample opportunity for rest
and meditation,

CAUSED BY VEGETABLE GERMS.

A French Physician Says Rural Peo-
pie suffer Most from Cancer.
A medical student, before he can
begin active service in France, must
write treatise On some medical sub
jeet which will be approved by the gov
eminent experts, says the Kansas City
Journal, DIR. Noel, who recently OBJ
tanned his diploma, wrote a treatise on
cancer, which has attracted the atten-
ton of scientists. According to his
opinion cancer is due TO vegetable
germs, which infect the human sys-
TEN, either through manual contact or
through absorption or inhalation of
the poison with water or food. Ac-
cording to statistics cancer prevails
more in districts surrounded by for
ests and along the banks of rivers than
in places where vegetation is scarce.
DIR, Noel began a careful investigation
around his home at Lyons, Birch, elm
and willow trees predominated. He
tested the sap from thousands Of these
trees and in a score Of specimens found
cancerous germs. A dog. inoculated
with these, in few days showed every
symptom Of cancer. DR.. Noel states
that the percentage of deaths from
cancer is much greater among persons
whose business il is to handle wood
and vegetation than those employed in
trades where wood is not used.

ALASKA AND THE YUKON.
From Sea 10 Sea by Crossing Only
Thirty Miles OF Land


Thirty Miles OF Land.
Alaska is most difficult country for
travelling, even in the only available
short season Of its arctic summer, there
being no roads; and even Indian trails,
On account Of the small number of na-
tives, are very rare, says Outing. The
surface IS rough, being traversed by
many ranges Of mountains. Even in
the more level portions travel is him
dered in the summer by the wet moss
which grows knee deep, and by the
insect pests; in the winter it IS made
impossible BY the intense cold. In view
OF all these difficulties, the peculiar re-
lation of the Yukon river TO the coast
il such that one might fancy nature
had arranged it especially for a high
way through this inaccessible interior,
in partial compensation to man for the
obstacles she has put in his way.
The headquarters of the network of
streams that ultimately drain into the
Yukon river fortunately lie within 80
miles of the sea, just on the northern or
inland side of a range of mountains
which runs along the southern coast of
Alaska. From this point the river flows
north away from the sea, far toward
the Arctic ocean; then, suddenly
changing its mind, turns west; and
finally, after traversing the whole width
of Alaska, arrives at the Behring sea,
its entire course being considerably
over 1000 miles. For a consider able
distance it is broad and deep stream,
SO that one may go quite through the
center Of Alaska. from sea to sea, by
crossing only 30 miles or so OF land.

People are not apt to get anxious
about their health soon enough. If
YOU are are mot quite well'' or ..half
sick" have you ever thought that
your kidneys may be the cause of
your sickness?
1t is easy to tell by setting aside
your urine for a hours; sediment or
settling indicates an unhealthy con-
dition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is evidence of kidney
trouble. Too frequent desire TO uri-
nate, scanty supply, pain or dull ache
in the back is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder need
doctoring.
There is satisfaction in knowing
that the great remedy DR.. Kilmer's
