Senator Pettigrcw said on the
subject: IF it is necessary to put
through a job like the Shipping
bill to enable Senator Hanna to
pay his campaign debts, | think it
would thus invite attention more
directly to it. 1t will not be passed
if can help it. Those Of us who
are most strongly opposed to it
propose to fight it in every way
we can" AS to how the bill
would be fought Mr.. Pettigrew
said: AS long as they continue
to force the shipping bill to the
front and those who agree with
me will fight every bill that is
brought up. If the appropriation
bills are forced over into an extra
session it will be because Of the
efforts to pass the shipping bill. "
That is about as plain as it could
be made. The two Senators who
have agreed to help Senator Petit
grew are Butler, Of y. c., and
Allen, of Nebraska. 1t is also
probable that they will be joined
by Democratic Senators, all of
whom are strongly opposed to the
principle involved in the ship sub
sidy bill. Now, it is up to Mr..
Hanna to say whether there shall
be an extra session. He can easil!
avoid one by abandoning the shil
subsidy bill.

to economy Is sounded whom We come
to compare the cost OF those elements

cost In other animal foods. A practl-
cal test before us illustrating its worth
in reducing the cost OF daily ration
comes from the State College Of Maine,
where trials were made with large
number Of young men, in which it
was most conclusively shown that the
free use OF milk not only diminished
the consumption OF other foods, but
that when partaken Of without restric-
ton as to quantity the cost OF the daily
ration was reduced eight cents per man.
One difIiculty which stands in the way
OF the more general use OF skim milk.

tity OF water which It conta ms; for

ously used In cooking, during which
process large quantity OF the water

Fcypt n Perfect Climate.

During the winter months between
November and April, Egypt is as near
ly perfect as climate can be. In Feb
ruary and March there prevails a wind
called "khamsin" ii, e., fifty, because
fifty days is about the period of its
prevalence. 1t comes from the direc-
ton of the desert and when it blows
hard, windows and shutters notwith-
standing, everything in your house is
finely powdered with sand; then also
the sun is sometimes withdrawn and
the sky is colorless, This happens
only for a day now and then during
"khamsin,' not by any means for fifty
days, nor for twenty either, but when
it is the case you are unhappy, for
Egypt deprived of her sunshine is be-
reit OF her charm. Anything, however,
but perfect weather is exceptional in
Egypt. The rule is that from 80 a.

Australia's Output of Rabbits

Australia has made out of its rab-
bit pest an industry, One exporter
alone receives from rabbiters between
10 900 and 10000 rabbits a day, for
which he pays trappers, as wages,
$4,000 a week This same exporter has
$4,000 traps set, employing 500 persons
to look aft, them. Last year he eX-
ported 700, 900 rabbits. and he expects
to send away 100000 carcasses this
season. Another exporter says he has
sent away 100000 rabbits during the
season, and that his wages account
with the men employed averages
$4,000 a week. Another exporter es-
Inmates that the output of rabbits this
season will be about 100000, and an
other person in the business estimates
the number at 100000. Taking the
rabbits at G cents a head, the sum
to be distributed among the trappers
will be about 100000.

Extend the System.

Have you ever thought what IA
power for i'll prejudice is some
times' Prejudice to name or Il
word may sometimes defeat a
much needed reform for years.
But prejudice is sometimes per-
mitted TO die. We are glad of
this, and here we want to bring to
mind the bias that is breaking
down in favor of direct legislation
in this country. 1t is even so, di-
rect legislation is what the people
are beginning to clammor for. We
regard it as II hcalthful sign-the
reform is needed, we think, to save
our Republic. So, in order to be
up with the procession, ifyou have
any prejudice against the initia-
tive and the referendum, begin mt
once to brush away the cobwebs
and get out into the light.
One of our readers argues it this
way with the MESSAGE: Let us
come home to Missouri. Direct
legislation is not n new method,
but a process with which the pco-
pie of this State have fong been
familiar. How did we vote on the
late proposed Constitutional
Amendments That was good
illustration of the referendum.
When the voters of any county
in this State wish to have any part
of the stock law adopted they get
up a petition, specifying the ami
mails they wish to have restrained.
That is the initiative. Then if
there is the rightful number of pc
titioners, the County Court must
submit the question to Il vote of
the people. This is the referen-
DUN part of it. If the people
want the local option law, prohib-
iting saloons, adopted, they get up
petition. That is the initiative.
The County Court must submit the
question to vote of the people.
That is the referendum part again.
Both the initiative and refcrcn-
dunn have long been in use in the
management of our common
schools. The question of county
supervision of the schools of Au-
drain will soon be brought before
the people in this way. Or, to il
lustrate again, if the people want
the boundaries of their school dis
trict changed, or the school house
site moved, etc, they take the in
itiative by petitioning the school
directors to refer the question to Il
vote of the people.
Now this ought to clear away all
suspicious and Danish all prejudice
to the extension of this system,
Representative government, to Il
great extent, is n failure the world
over. hence the reason people are
beginning to look to direct legisla'
ton ms the more perfect road to II
government which shall be really
of, for and by the people.
Here's another advantage;
Thousands of people hold with
one party on one question and
with the opposite party on some
other question. In direct legisla'
ton each voter can vote his own
views without voting against his
party or affecting any mans chance
for office. Direct legislation will
not kill off the political parties.
