The Ancient and Honorable
Freight Bill Trick Used

West Johnson, an unaophlsticatcd
gentleman from the upper sound

money last night by two clever
sharperH who used the freight bill
trick as the means of separation.

IT TROUBLES THE STOMACH.
Thr Trust Question Begins to Come

of the People.

The trust question threatens to re-
solve Itself into Il national stomach

View of it will be rapidly and radically

AS to iron, steel, copper, tin, wire,
nails nd'hardware generally, the peo-
pie may listen more OF less patiently
to the proposition that trusts are
beautiful and beneficent agencies for
lessening the cost of production, rails
ing wages and cheapening prices. But
no argument will avail to reconcile the
mass of mankind to the disappearing
beefsteak, the vanishing lamb stew and
the shrinking ration of pork, says the
New York World. Owen Meredith
shrewdly says of man that
''He may live without love-what is passion
but pining?
But where is the man that can live without

SHAW RIDES HORSEBACK.
The Secretary of the Treasury Takes
This Sort Of Exercise Every
Pleasant Afternoon.

Following the example of his dis
tinguished chief, Secretary of the
Treasury Shaw goes horseback riding
every afternoon at four o'clock. But
Mr.. Shaw does not get half the
amount Of physical exercise out Of
this afternoon pastime that Pres
ident Roosevelt does. The latter
rides a horse that gallops and trots.
while Mr.. Shaw's gives the rider
about as much exercise as swinging
in hammock.
Whoever selected the secretary's
horse for him. must have known that
he wanted On easy thing. The ami
m9l is what is known as q single
footer and glides along at an or
binary dog trot without lifting his
hoofs more than two inches above
the pavement.
The secretary uses deep Mex
lean saddle and looks as though he
was glued to his horse. He does not
ride with the president, but is gen
orally alone, and as he goes skipping
along looks like man doing his
duty instead of out for pleasure.
Senator Beveridge also is a daily
horseback rider nowadays, and some
thing OF an expert. He and Secre-
tary Shaw both wear soft black hats
just like the president, but neither
has soldier orderly in his train.

"You have wasted six hundred mil

slain uncounted thousands Of the peo-
pie you desire to benefit.
"We have sold out the right, the old
American right, to speak our sYmpa-
thy which is in our hearts for people
who are desolate and oppressed every
where on the face of the earth.
''The capture Of Aguinaldo by Gen.
Fusion is stamped with indelible in

problem will yet be answered right.
The hours are long in the life of a
great people. The irrevocable step is
not yet taken. 1t will be answered
not in any turbulent aassembly, amid
shouting and clapping of hands and
stamping of feet, where men do their
thinking with their heels and not with
their brains. 1t will be answered in
the churches and in the schools and
in the colleges; and it will be answer

EFFECTS OF CROSSING.
Where Poultry Raisers Practice II
Largely, the Result Is Nearly AL
ways q Failure.

Crossing the breeds has never given
good results, although great many
try it, and will continue to do SO. In
nearly all cases when the attempt is
made to blend the best qualities of two
different breeds the offspring is not
equal to either parent, hence in the
course Of a few years there will be no
uniformity, and the stock reverts to
the scrub. Too much mixing is no bet
ter than keeping scrubs. 1t is right
and proper to grade up a common flock
with pure breeds, but to cross two pure
breeds is mistake. Where crossing is
prncticed largely, as with poultry, the
result is nearly always failure, there
being no uniformity of color, size or
laying qualities. Pure breeds are real
~ the results of judicious crossings
and selections, and cannot be improved
upon except after years of care and Sc
lection of the best individuals. The
best possible security, short Of the
actual test that any bird or animal
will produce its characteristics in its
offspring Is that these characteristics
are known to have belonged to long
line of ancestors. Individual merit
and adaptation to our needs should be
the first and most important points of
selection. The character of the ances-
tors should be considered. 1t is not
necessary to endeavor to determine the
character Of any one Of the ancestors,
for when pure breeds are used one gets
at once the results Of selection for
years by those who worked in the past.
Crossing destroys the work that others
have done before.-Farm and Fireside.

SOLDIER WANTS HIS PANTS.
The Emperor of Austria Grants the
Novel Petition of Veteran About
to Leave the Service,

An extraordinary petition for i'm
perial grace reached Emperor Francis
Joseph from the small Galician town
Of Czernowitz. The former messenger
OF the courthouse there asked his
majesty to save his trousers, which he
had worn ten years, and when his SUI
perior officer ordered him to give up
on the day he was pensioned.
II have served your majesty faith
fully for AZ years, $ months and 6
days." wrote the petitioner, and to be
deprived. of my official pantaloons in
my old age is great hardship, one
that your imperial majesty will not in
flict upon an old soldier, am sure.
"When was pensioned the court
decided to let me retain my cap, but
the pantaloons, it said, must be re-
stored to the state. Having only this
one pair refused to accede to the de-
mand and, in consequence, lam threat
ened with Imprisonment for contempt
of court"
The emperor made haste to tele-
graph to the authorities not to enforce
the letter of the law against the man
and at the same time sent him new
suit Of clothes and ten forms to drink
the imperial health.

A RED LETTER DAY.
publicnns in the Cuban
Tariff Battle,

The democrats in the house Of rep
resentatives have scored a signal vic
tory over their opponents.
Standing at last, with a few unim-
portant exceptions, shoulder, to shout
der, the democrats divided and disor-
ganized the republicans, broke the
autocracy of the speaker and amended
the Cuban reciprocity measure with Il
provision abolishing the differential
tariff on sugar.
This is certainly more than the most
optimistic democrat dared hope to ac-
complish two weeks ago, and is only q
foretaste of what the minority may yet
do if it shall continue to present the
compact front which it maintained in
the battle, says the Louisville Courier
Journal.
1t had been feared that there would
be serious division among the demo-
Gratis themselves on the proposition to
reduce the tariff in favor of Cuba; but
on the final vote only ten stood against
it. The result is brilliant victory for
the united party, and whether or not
the bill as passed by the house gets
through the senate, the party victory
remains, and its inspiriting effect is
bound to be lasting and great.
The differential duty on sugar, as all
who are posted in tariff legislation I'M
derstarh, is the difference between the
duty on raw sugar and the higher dusty
on refined sugar. This is the duty
which the sugar trust has always de-
manded and has always got. The dem
ocrats now, in passing through the
house repeaNof that differential rate,
have struck the trust strong blow
and have taken an important step to-
ward making the sugar tariff more a
| tariff for revenue and less tariff for
| protection. while they have forced the
| republicans to align themselves openly
in defense of the trust. 1t is from
every standpoint the most telling tri-
umph achieved by the democratic mi
| nority in years.
Mr.. Payne, the leader Of the repub-
l1can majority, says that this amend
ment to the reciprocity bill carries
with it repeal Of the countervailing
duty as well as of the differential duty.
If that rs trua. so much the better. The
countervaiing duty is the extra duty
which must be placed upon sugar on
which the government of the producer
pays an export bounty; in other words,
1t is the result of that phase of pro-
lection which refuses to allow the
American consumer to get the benefit
OF the generosity of foreign sugar
producers government in partially
paying the American tariff tax. IfMr,
| Payne is right, the democrats did big
ger days work than they were aware
| of themselves
1t is likely that the amended bill will
have rough sailing in the senate. The
sugar trust is very strong in that body,
but even though the measure be finally
passed without the house amendment
the tactical advantage which the house
democrats have won cannot be dimin-
1shed. 1t was a red-letter day for the
democrats
