FRENCH ELECTIONS.
HOW THE REPUBLIC CHOOSES ITS
CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES.

Pay and Perquisites of a Member of
the French ConRress-Issues of the
Coming Campaign-Person OF

France will soon be in the turmoil of
a general election. Every four years
an election is held throughout France
for members of the chamber of depu.
ties. Elections are held on Sunday.
the date determined by the council of
ministers. The coming ballot battle will
occur on the last Sunday in April. The
issues are more clearly defined than is
usual in French politics. being in fact
more personal than political.
NJ. Waldeck- Rousseau, the present
premier, asks for another Conservative
Republican majority in the chamber Of
deputies and an extension of his pre-
miership. His chief opponents are the
Nationalist, who lack strong leaders.

airy men. and who have no programme
Of great Importance. The only definite
feature in it seems to be a demand for
change in the manner Of electing the
president and an alteration of his con.
stitutional functions by which they
would be made to resemble more close
ly those of the president at Washington.
NJ. Waldeck Rousseau is also wise
and deXtrous fusionist and has com
bined diverse elements in his support
In a way that no other leader has done
under the third republic. He has
weathered more storms of popular pref
udice than any other premier and in
some way that puzzles the French and
commands their admiration has done
much TO eliminate the frequent changes
In cabinets and give parliamentary
government chance to develop. So the
real issue in the coming elections is NJ.
Waldeck Rousseau.
The French parliament, like that Of
nearly all the great countries, consists
of two branches. One is the senate and
the other the chamber of deputies. The
senate is composed of 800 members.
Originally seventy-five of them held
seats for life, Some time ago, however,
law was passed providing that on the
death or resignation of life senator
the vacancy should be filled by cleo
ton. This has eliminated the life sena-
tors. The term of a senator is nine
years.
The senators are elected by delegates
chosen by communes and municipali
ties acting in conjunction with repre-
sentatives Of the departments in the
councils general, body whose func-

The stated sessions of the French
parliament begin ON the second Tues
day of January in each year and last
at least five months. The president has
the power also of converting it at any
time. He must also call session when
half Of the members of each branch of
parliament request 1t. The members of
the French parliament are paid for
their services. The salary of a senator
is $4,000 year and of deputy $1,000.
French campaign methods are quite
different from ours. Candidates for the
French chamber Of deputies seldom go
about making stump" speeches, and
house to house canvass. such as our
congressional nominees sometimes
make is almost unknown. The French.
man pins his faith to the placard. He
writes his sentiments, has them print
ed in big type on posters Of large size
and then hires men to display them
lavishly throughout his district. Some
times the billposters Of rival candi-
dates clash. Then the campaign gets
really warm.
This sort Of thing is now going on all
over France, 1t will all end peaceably
on Sunday, April 81. when the French
voters will 60 from early mass to the
polls and afterward take their families

They still Name the Cook.

A queer custom, which prevails at n
other court than that of Great Britain
is the announcement at the beginning
of each course at dinner of the name
of the cook who has prepared the dish
es served. The origin of this custom
dates back to the reign of King George
H., who made great favorite of one
of his cooks. promoting him to the ranl
of chief over the heads of all his sell
iors. This. of course, created great

WE clip the following items from Rev. Irl
R. Hicks paper, Word and Works, which our
farmer readers would do we'll to heed:
eve hope that all our agricultural passen-
gers will read this item and paste it in their
heads. Plan to get your crops in at the earli-
est possible moment and resolve that you will
not let the ground bake hard after single
shower, but that you will keep it stirred, weed
less and soft, even if the dust should become
knee deep in your fields. Do this, and you
can hardly fail to make CROP"
"We reiterate what we have said
for years this general subject, that the crisis
of the great drouth over all this section he
central west would be in 1901, but that the
effects would be felt in sore but decreasing
measure in the season of 1902. We believ-
that the conditions will improve ia most parts
of Kansas, but that the greatest care should be
exercised in adapting crops and in making the
very best of the moisture in the early part of
the season.

FACE TO FACE WITH RAILROAD MONOPOLY

A dispatch from Chicago, dated April 3D.,
gives the following:
Two hundred men, members of the Illinois
Manufacturers Association and their invited
guests, were present at the banquet of the or
ganization, which was held this evening.
The program called fol but one set speech,
which was delivered by Interstate Commerce
Commissioner Charles A. Prouty, of Sioux
City. The subject of Commissioner Prouty's
address is "The Cause of the Steady Advance
in Freight Rates"
Charles H. Deere, of Moline, presided at the
banquet, and introduced Commissioner Prouty
in neat address. Commissioner Prouty, in
the course of his speech, said:
monopoly has been odious in all ages, not
because it discriminates, but because it EFFORTS.
We are face to face with railroad monopoly
GAS see it, the reason is this: because, by
various processes, there is being eliminated
from the railway operations of the United
States the factor of railway competition.
eff competition has been the regulator of
railway rates in the past, and that competition
is fast becoming vanishing quantity, what is
the remedy? The natural answer is, compel
competition by law; prohibit combination by
statute.
"The Northern Securities Company may be
dissolved If it be an illegal institution, it
certainly ought to be. But what has been
gained by its dissolution? A little over
capitalization has, perhaps, been blotted
out. The Great Northern and the Northern
Pacific railroads are still owned by the same
men. They are friends, in fact, and no amount
of legislation can ever compel them to fight like
enemies
eff the owners of railway property are free
to say what shall be charged for the service OF
transportation, they will, in the long run, rob
the public. No amount of sophistry can dis
guise it. Such condition is against common
sense, common experience and common de-
cency.
"What, then, is the remedy9
"The railway is public servant. Its rates
are subject to public regulation The govern
ment not only may, but should compel the
charging of just and reasonable tariffs. That
remedy is perfectly adequate, perfectly just and
perfectly capable of application. 1t is the only
remedy"
After Commissioner Prouty's address, there
was general discussion of the ideas which he
had advanced, and informal speeches were
made by several members of the organization.
Some day, these gentlemen will realize that
only solution of the problem is GOVERNMENT
OWNERSHIP of the railroads.
