Big Corn Crop in Kansas.

New York, July l9.-'Kansas
has the biggest corn crop in sight
in the history of the state" says
Paul Morton, vice president of the
Atchison, Topeka d Santa Fe rail
road, who is in New York. Give
us three weeks more without hot
winds and the corn crop of Kan
sas will reach 300,O00,O00 bushels,
double that of last year. Business
in the localities traversed by our
system is excellent. There is
promise of fine cotton crop, while,
if the promises concerning the or
ange crop are fulfilled, it will be
twice as large as last year, when
our road carried 1900 carloads of
oranges"

Gov. Lind in his message wants the
legislature of Minnesota to wipe out
the pass system, "root and branch. ;"
In Minnesota the law compels rail-
roads to grant passes to legislators
and state oficers-a Republican
measure passed some years ago.
Notwithstanding this, Mr.. Lind de-
mands the repeal of this obnoxious
measure and law enacted to abolish
the pass nuisance. Mr.. Lind also
gives the legislature some very whole
some advise on the subject OF the
lobby. He says: "Akin to the pass
question is the evil of the lobby,
which, wish the development of great
special interests, have become SO
much of factor in legislative bodies
that the people, whether justly or
uniustly, are very suspicious OF the
motives that guide and influence
legislation.
The existence of such sentiment
is in itself an evil. It behooves us to
adopt every precautlon for it's re-
moval, as we'll as to avoid every
influence that gives reason for its
existence. The distance between the
voter and the final act of legislation
is already so great that there is no
room for third house. Salutary
regulations have been adopted on
this subject in the state of Massa-
chusetts, under which each house
keeps legislative docket for public
inspection, upon which must be
entered the name of every person
appearing before any committee or
members in advocacy for or against
legislation, with a statement in
whose behalf he appears, the terms
of his employment and compensa-
ton, with adequate penalties for the
violation of the act. Such legislation
or enactments tending to the same
end should be enacted in this state"

AS regards the relative size and
strength of the great navies of the
earth the United States stands fourth
in rank-Great Britain first, France
second, Russia third, Germany fifth,
and Italy sixth. The relative tonnage
displacement of the six greatest navla
powers of the earth as compared
with the combined strength OF these
powers are as follows: Great Britain
43 per cent, France 20, Russia ~,
and the United States, Germany and
Italy varying between 8 and 8 per
cent in their respective order.

President j. J. Hill of the great
Northern Railroad wants the gov
eminent to pay tonnage bounty on
all grain shipped out of this country
to foreign nations which are COM
paratively new customers. He says
if the government would expend three
million dollars annually in this way
it would raise the price of wheat st
least six cents a bushel to thefarmers
as it would prove a powerful incen-
tive to supply transport shipping
which is now very scarce. Such a
scheme as Mr.. Hill advocates looks
reasonable and farmers interested
should make an appeal to their
representatives in Congress for this
desired help.

AChild's DISPOSITION

May be ruined through existing defects in
eyesight. Children are often called dull and
stupid by teachers and parents through no
fault or their own. Perhaps born with a
defect in sight, they don't know of any differ
ent world FROM that which they see through
defective eyes. Mark any peculiarities that
children may have in looking at objects at
distance or near by. Squirting, frowning,
looking sidewise with partially closed eyes
are indications of eye troubles. Better be
over cautious in having child's eyes
examined than to take too much responsible
ity into YOU own hands. Examination free.
CHILDREN'S EYES
Should have careful attention. They
should be examined at the first complaint by
s. reliable optician-especially while the
child is in school.
A little care at the prol.er time may save
them untold misery and heir parents much
remorse. A defect that may be easily
remedied NOW might prove difficult LATER.
All diseases of the eye correctly diagnosed.
Examination Free.-W. w. Taggart, BOxrud
Block. River Falls, Wisconsin.

The Wisconsin State legislature
convenes at Madison tomorrow. 1t
is believed that a large number of the
members are thoroughly in earnest in
desire to carry out the pledges OF
the Republican platform. While
these may be hampered to a Ger
tain extent by some of the Republi-
cans of the old school, yet with the
honesty of purpose already shown
by so many in refusing the proffered
railroad passes, it is believed that
the reforms promised will be carried
out this time. II there is any hedg-
ing it will most likely occur on the
primary election law, as any law do
ing away with the delegate system
will be desperately fought by the old
time caucus manipulators, as they
recognize in such a reform the death
blow to all their future political
ambitions. But it is believed that
right will win in case such an I'M
worthy fight is precipitated and that
the Republicans at this session OF the
legislature will put to shame those
who constituted the majority IN the
legislatures of two and four years ago,
by redeeming every worthy promise
made the people in a candid and
satisfactory manner.

Minnesota is hustling for a primary
election law. There will be several
bills brought before the state legislat-
ure this winter. The ambition of
those law makers is to perfect a
primary election law that will out
shine those of other states in points
OF excellency. 1t is hoped they will
never soil their statute books
with such a ridiculous production as
the one handed down by the legisla-
tors that did business at Madison
two years ago.
