|, Speaking OF direct legislation Sena-
tor Harris says: ''The question fin
ally reduces itself to the proposition
found in the homely wisdom of Poor
Richards Almanac, IF you want a
thing properly done. do it yourself; if
not, trust it to someone else The
principle of Indirect legislation is a
false and perniciOus one. 1t has been
condemned by all of the ablest writer's
on representative government. The
actual sovereignty is in the people
themselves. The Intelligence and in
formation of the great mass of the
people have advanced until they are
fully equal to any demand which may
be made upon them. The legislatures,
as rule, however it may have been
at the time the constitution was made,
are not now superior in Intelligence
or means of information to the great
mass of the people. 1t is absolutely
necessary that a greater degree of re-
sponsibility should attach itself to
the Office of senator. At present the
constituency of a senator changes at
least every two years. He is respOn-
sible neither to the people nor the
Legislature which has gone out of eX
istence. He should be brought more
closely in touch with the great masses
of the people who should have great
er liberty of choice in his election"

NEW BOOK.

Sand-burrs is a series of short sto-
ries by Alfred Henry Lewis Dan
Quin that are equal to anything writ
ten by Bret Hart. Mr.. Lewis vocab-
ulary is decidedly more unique an
forciole than any writer in this coun-
try. Many of these stories are woven
around an interesting phase of west
ern life that is passing away as the
plains are settled up and the ari
lands are turned into farms and past
ures. Every one of the characters in
stories of the west is a type and be-
longs to the class of men who made
the West possible as q land of homes.
Tales of their lives and adventures
will ever be full of a strong interest.
No one has ever told these tales ia so
characteristic a way as Mr.. Lewis.
The scene of other of these tales are
found in New Y ork life, and every
one of them is unique and interesting.
The short story has never been told
in a more effective way then by Alfred
Henry Lewis, Pub. by Frederic A.
Stokes & Co.

Notwithstanding "
This illustrates fairly we'll why you
shOnld not send lawyers to the senate
and legislature to make laws for you
Instead of writing bill in a straight
forward manner so that its meaning
will be clear and easily understood
by everyone, they employ the style
above and when the bill is finally
enacted into law, the man who wrote
it, the beOple whom it was written for,
the supreme court nor the Lord can
tell just what it was intended to mean
and the result is endless legal compli-
cations and law suits, all of which
benefits the lawyer and still further
exhausts the substance of the produc-
er. who in the final roundup pays all
the bills.

notice last week a cartoon in the post

political nature representing the demo-
Gratis as q half starved calamity howl

was the usual rot of comparison of
free trade years and years of high tax
alton and the deductions that are
always made by republicans to prove
that they are the salt of the earth and
the only hope of its people. We do
not propose to discuss that side of the
case at the present time but simply to
call the attention of abe post master
to the fact that he does not own
the post Office and further that the
republican party does not own the

Reading and how to teach it.


Few people realize how important
matter IN Jhe education of a child is
the teaching OF reading. Many par
ents and teachers think that because
nearly every ond can read, anyone
can teach reading Nothing is farth-
er from the truth. Few people read
we'll and fewer yet can teach 1t. Every
parent should familiarize himself with
the most scientific method of teaching
1t. Teachers should give the matter
more study as far too many students
are turned out of our schools poor
readers. If 4 student reads a mathe-
matical problem correctly he has it
already half solved. 1t is really
most Important matter that the pupil
read we'll.
"Reading and How to Teach it' is a
valuable book upon the subject of
teaching reading, by Sarah Louise
Arnold who is we'll known in the edu-
cational world. We heartily reco
mend it to teachers and parents who
contains chapters on "Literature in
the School-room. The use of the Lii
brary and lists of books, stories and
poems for use in childrens' reading.
This book is a thoughtful and valu
able treatise upon the important sub
ject of reading.

MR.. FINCH'S TURKEYS.
They Earn Him $50 Day Catching
Grasshoppers.

Necessity has made the Kansas farmer
so energetic and enterprising that lack
of rain. dryness of soil. and grasshopperS
the bane of the existence of the pioneer
Kansas farmer-haye no terrors for the
farmer Of 1900
If a suf1ciency of rain seemed TO guar
antee good crops to the farmer of fifteen
years ago, he still ran the risk Of having
his crops partially or completely destroy
ed by grasshOppers. Il has remained I0r
the fertile brain of a Saline county farm
CT to devise the following effeCtual
method of eXterminating graSshOppers.
viz: BY raising a flock Of Loo turkeys
and renting them out at so per day.
The name of the man who is the father
of this new industry is Mr. Finch. one OF
the farmers Of prosperous Saline county
Mr.. Finch says the graSshOppers haye1
been so numerous in his district this sum-
mer as TO do considerable damage to al
crops. He has a drove Of LOO young turk
keys, and he soon discovered that his,
poultry was more than a match for the
grasshoppers. The turkeys destroyed the.
hOpperS almost as fast as they COuld3
light on his premises and before they
had time to work any destruction
Presently Mr. F1nch'S nelghD0Ts noticed
that his fields continued green and luXGr-
liant, while others were barren IN spots
and they investigated. When they found
enterprising farmers began to negottaJs}
for the use Of the flock. Finch proceeded
on the theory that 100 turkeys were as
valuable as a farm hand and accordingly
fixed a rental of $3.50 per day for each
100 turkeys. The entire flock IS IN de-
mand. and Mr. Finch derives a revenue

/ looks more like Napoleon than Loubet
does However. it's nobody's business
After awhile we came out into the
garden again and found that Mr.. and
Mrs LOubet were tired OF %sceiving on
the carpet and were going indoors some
more. A man who looked Ike a guest
and who carried a large camera held
himself in readiness, and when they
passed him he got 'em. I don't know
whether il is a French custom to go
around shooting the president with a
camera, but 70 me il seemed out OF
place. And then as soon as the first
gentleman in France and his wife were
snugly ensconced in the house again
people went TO the windows and Grained
their necks TO see inside 1 saw one
plenipotentiary "rubbering' like a
small boy at a baseball game
1 noticed one thing that filed me with
delight. When the music began. the
talking ceased. Remember that you
who read this and the next time YOU
are at reception and there is music,
stop talking
The reception was from 70 Z. but
J we did not stay after g. and as the
exalted couple had gone on somewhere
We were unable to say good bye and
tell them what a good time we had had
But we had enjoyed ourselves exceed
ingly, and 1 think that they make a
real nice ''fOlksy'' couple. and if I had
more ready command of French would
write TO them and tell them what a
pleasant occasion it was, and how two
Americans who didn't know a soul there
except Horace Porter, and him only byl
sight, felt that they owned the place
and were glad Of it
If MaSsinger and I ever get to be
president of the United States we hope
We'll have q chance TO make Mr.. and
Mrs. Loubet feel at home, although
they can't dance on Sunday. Il would
simply kill me politically with the
MethOdiStS.
When we were returning through the
streets we met a company of negroes
who are going to give "cakewaIk''

/ both felt that the presidency was not
so far off. and we Swelled with pride.

vor by the concierge and his wife, and

and when we left the hotel we saw
a long line of servants who had been
summoned in some mysterious way to
witness the departure of the two Amer
leans.
We had been driven three or four
blocks on the Avenue de POpera before
we saw another man in evening clothes
and during that time we were a prey
to terrible suspicious. What if our
friends had played US false. What if
people did not dress until after six
in France. We'd bring nice ridicule
on our country, wouldn't we? But at
last we saw a man in a swallow tail
coat and wearing a felt hat and then
we breathed easier and by the time We
were one of the long row Of cabs that
were waiting IL line to drive into the
executive mansion, if that is what they
call it in France, we felt that we were
not walters in one sense nor were We
walters in any sense long, for the
driver told US we could get out and
walk il we cared to.
So we paid him and a walk of half
block brought US to the entrance for
pedestrians. If you think that you're
going to have detailed account of the
architecture of the building with a
faithful description of each room
through which we passed after we had
checked our coats you are making a
monumental error We went from a
spacious graveled court yard into a
series of large rooms and at last ap-
preached a quick cared turnkey or
maybe ne was president of the senate
for all l know or care. st any rate he
called out MaSSinger'S name as if he
had never been used to say any other
word and then he called out my name
in a way to make it sound noble. A
nod in the direction of the president
and his wife, and we found ourselves
rapidly walking toward the garden.
There a gay scene presented itself,
one that we could understand without
a guide book. Massinger had been
audibly regretting that he had not
brought Baedeker while we were get
ting ready to be presented, for our
progress was slow and the rooms
looked very much like those in the diff
ferent palaces that have echoed to the
sound of our fieeting footsteps, for 10,
these many days, but once in that gar
den we saw that it was just human
beings with no Cooks Tourists, as
such, among them, and we felt at our
ease. Two bands on opposite sides of
the lawn were discOursing Vtrains by
Bizet, Massenet and other French CO. y
pOserS, not at the same time, but alter
nately, while from within the house
there came a sound of revelry by day
and Frances capital had gathered
there her representative people.
1 generally pass on clothes. I see
them, but do not notice them, but those
fey terrible minutes in the voiture
when 1 wasn't sure whether l was a
waiter or not made me keenly alive
to mems apparel and I noted the cos
tunes with interest. There were men

Dom PAU" is literally weighted down
with tributes. One of these is a sill
yer leafed wreath sent by Prince Leon
Galitzine Of Austria, and bears the
legend, To the representative of q lit
tie people and great principle An
other offering bears the card of the
Princess. Agnes Salm-Salm, and in the
mass one recognizes tributes from
countless Americans, and from almost
every country in the world, except
Great Britain and her colonies.
In some respects President Kruger S
statue IS one of the most unique fea-
lures in all the universal exposition.
AT whatever time of day one happens
IN there, there is bound to be an in
terested and interesting throng about
the statue. 1t seems to be the one
place where the representatives of ma
tons as wide apart as the poles may
meet on a basis of mutual sympathy.

A SUNDAY AFTERNOON RECEPTION THE EXECUTIVE
OF FRANCE.


Paris, July s.-Massinger said he felt
like a waiter when We put on our
evenin clothes at three in the after
noon to attend a Sunday reception
given by President Loubet of the
French republic, but friends in whom
I trusted had told me that it would
be perfectly proper TO wear silk hat
and q spike tail
Massinger stopped on the way out Of
our hotel to ask the concierge where
the president lived and she nearly fell
over. When she could gasp she told US
and came out to the front door with
her husband to help US get cab She
felt that she was assisting in a sacred
function Those Americans that put
up with a room near the roof and

Sunday afternoon quite as if presidents

with red barred outing shirts, others
with frilled full dress, men in grey

There were TuXedos and swallow tails,
tan shoes and patent feathers, pot hats
and opera hats, silk hats and Fedor2s,
white ties and made ties, red ties and
black ties, four-in-hand and stocks. In
short, with the exception Of blOuses
and overaIls, I don't think that there
was any kind of masculine apparel
that was not represented in that
throng. And then there were the gay
colors of the French soldiery with here
and there a Turk; or Chinaman who
walked around as calmly and as in
scrutably as if Pekin were not the un-
seen cynOsure of all eyes.

OccasiOned a tumultuous scene in the
pavilion last Friday. Three English
men stopped before the statue and in
dulged in more or less quiet merriment
at the expense of the plaster
patriarch overhead. From the looks of
the persons standing about it seemed
safe to assume that none understood
English. This was a mistake. A mid
dle-aged. very dark, Spanish looking
man wasn't by any means the Spaniard
he appeared. One of the Britishers con-
tributed to the mirth of his compan-
ions by remarking that when Roberts
caught Kruger he was going to send
him 70 the London zoo as a rare spec
linen of the famous South African
whiskered goat. Here the quiet look
ing Spaniard bounded toward the Brit
ish trio.
