Senator Ross.

The many friends of Senator Ross
will read with pleasure this tribute
to his public career from the pen Of
Editor Bishop of the Island Pond
Herald:
When the appointment of man for
senator to fill the vacancy occasioned by
the death OF the late Senator Morrill,
was being talked about it was said that
the man who would be appointed would
stand little chance to accomplish much it
he was to remain in congress only until
the next election. 1t was asserted that
by reason Of some sort of conventional
rule it would be regarded as in some way
an improperly tor member to speak
during the session at which he first enters
congress, and he would, therefore, be
confined to very limited time to get on
his feet" But it seems that Senator
Ross IN his business-like way and in an
unassuming manner walked up to the
first occasion that presented itself, and
the subject being of judicial nature
the work was more familiar to him. He
spoke calmly and sensibly as he always
does, even if he happens to be in error as
to the side he is on, and he was listened
to with attention and respect. He mod
estly walked right into congress and has
already made two speeches. He went
straight to work as matter Of course,
and is in full communion with his asso.
ciates, in sympathy with his constituency,
and is operating with the ability of a
man Of experience in that line of business.
The even tenor of his ways as we'll as his
unceasing industry and everlasting per-
sistency, more competent because silent
and continuous, has made his remarka-
bic career one of constant development,
crystalization and elevation. No sudden
accumulation has ever come to his life
work and none is expected, but accretion
seems to continue without being inter.
rupted by his removal from judicial to
legislative department, and it looks
now as thought might embed him pretty
firmly in his new position.

A Rabbits Prayer.

The prayer at the opening session
OF the House in Washington on Feb
% was delivered by Rabbi Gustav N
Haissmann of Grand Rapids, Mich
1t attracted unusual interest and
here is the full text of the Rabbits
prayer:
ave pray Thee, o God, to give wisdom
to this House OF representatives, even as
this is the third epoch in the history OF our
country. In the first, the father of this
country severed relations with foreign
countries and gave liberty to his people
in the second, the immortal martyred
President gave liberty to his country
men and now again, in this third epoch
we give liberty even beyond the boundary
lines of this country. Give wisdom, @
God, to this House of Representatives
and to the officers of the House, and
above all, to the President OF the United
States that he may execute the laws
because we love this government; because
we love liberty; because we love human
ity."

ing what he aptly calls his Cam
paign" and explains the grounds OF
his strong hope of its ending in Sc
curing to himself and the United
States the glory of discovering the
Pole. The article is illustrated,
largely from photographs taken by
the author himself The March Nc
Clure's is an unusually good num-
Der of magazine that never fails to
supply something out of the ordin-
airy.
Balance-sheets are unhappily scarce
among farmers; the few that are
taken are hard to get at; for these
reasons the one presented by Frank
H. Spearman in the Review of Re-
views for March is of especial inter-
est. AS Mr.. Spearman says, at is
not from paper farm; it is not a
paper balance; nor is it a paper
farmer who makes the showing. 1t
is what no American review has ever
before presented to it's readers-an
actual glimpse at the books and
workings OF a model American farm.
This farm, located in Iowa, con-
teins G, 200 acres, and its business is
to produce corn" Not only does
Mr.. Spearman disclose the business
workings of this great corn farm,
but his article also gives an insight
into the business of wheat-growing
on a large scale in the Red River
Valley OF North Dakota.

LIVE FOREIGN NOTES.

The Russian government has sent out
a second circular regarding the Cars
proposed peace conference. 1t suggests
that the place of meeting be some city
other than any of our great capitals, out
lining programme for consideration.
The chief suggestions relate to arbitra-
ton rather than to war. whenever pos.
sible. 1t implies that the instruments
now used in war are so destructive in
the way Of torpedoes. rams and ex-
posives thrown from balloons, that all
who go into battle stand slight chance
OF coming out alive.
A dispatch from Madrid says that a
court-martial has sentenced Gen. Toral,
who surrendered Santiago TO the Ameri

is believed that the sentence is sham
and that it is not likely to be carried into
effect.

Beware Of Creamery Promoters. /"

F. L. Davis, secretary of the Vermont
Dairymen's association, has issued a
warning against parties who call them
selves creamery promoters" who have
been contracting with farmers for expen-
sive creamery plants, in which the con-
tract price agreed upon has been far in
excess of the requirements Of the business
and in some sections such plants have
been contracted for where there is not
sufficient milk produced to pay the
expense of operating a creamery. Mr..
Davis says this evil has greatly injured
the dairy interests and caused loss to
stockholders in such organizations. He
advises that contracts for creamery
plants be not placed with unknown
persons. as there are plenty of reliable
persons entitled to the confidence o.
dairymen.

Nor yet imperial eagle;

But still his sway Is regal.

The prosperous and the debtor,
And every mothers son is glad
