FL Both Mr. Tawney and Mr.. Fletcher will
or should be better, congressman for the
disciplining they haye just received from
their people. We imagine that after this
they. will consult public oninion in their
state and district and vote in congress on
big questions as their people think they
should. AS a rule a congressman knows
his business better than his people do.
But on on such a question as. that Of Cuban
reciprocity the constituents Who p" made
public opinion had every opportunity to be
and were as we'll or better informed than
their representatives. In a question in
volving national policy, a policy that
greatly interests or concerns the people,
the congressman should, by his vote, rep
resent his people. In other matters he can
act as his judgment directs, always as
Stunning that he can, if necessary, convince
his people that he is right Representa-
tive government becomes farce If the
representative body bellies it's designation.

vote, it appears, was the natural Fletcher
vote, only it wasn't for him this time be-
cause part of it was against Fletcher and
part Of it was for Hay. In the same way
we might argue that the contest, notwitl-
standing the result, was really. between
Hay and Peterson j The Fletcher vote
we might assume, was naturally a HAY
vote, but it voted for Fletcher because
part Of it preferred Fletcher to Hay and
because the other part disliked Hay. Such
conclusions may have some value but we

Selection of Cattle,

The selection of cattle best suited for
their intended use is Of great impor-
lance to feeders and dairymen, and it
Is even more important to breeders Of
either beef or dairy cattle. For the
purpose of presenting In simple and
graphic way some information con-
corning the differences between good
and inferior animals and the extent to
which certain desirable qualities affect
their value for beef and dairy utility
the United States department Of agri-
culture has had prepared and will soon
issue farmers bulletin No. 143, enti-
tied CONFORMATION of Beef and Dairy
Cattle" 1t was prepared by Andrew
NJ. Soule, professor of agriculture and
vice director of the Tennessee agricul-
tural experiment station. The author
has endeavored to define as nearly as
possible the ideals that should be kept
In view in pursuing the business and
to point out as far as possible the rela-
ton Of these standards to the economic
side Of animal industries. BY diagrams,
descriptions and suitable illustrate
he has given the information necessary
to enable the stock feeder, the breeder,
the farmer or the dairyman to become
competent judge of cattle by sight
and touch.
Beef and dairy cattle are considered
together because stronger contrasts can
be drawn and differences can be shown
more clearly.
The bulletin is for free distribution
and will be sent to any address on ap-
plication to senators, representatives
and delegates in congress or to the sec
rotary of agriculture, Washington.

guished Itself In Many Ways.

experience Of a thrilling but perilous
pastime, the descent in small hand

in Peru.

ferring to the title Of the article, ut Is

ira six may go-1O0 are enough at any
rate for purposes of illustration. These
hundred odd miles are to be found on
the Ferro, Carril Central Of Peru, COM
monty called the Oroya railway, and
they are to be found nowhere else.
"This Oroya railway is a very won
derful line indeed. 1t not only climbs
higher than any other railway In the
world, but also distinguished itself In
a variety of other ways incidentally
referred to hereafter. But the accom-
plishment with which am chiefly con-
cerned is ths-that it provides the only
road in the world which man on
wheels can travel over 100 miles by
his own momentum and practically at
any pace to which the tend of reck-
lessness may urge him.
"The object of what is here written
is to trace the sensations born of a
run down from the summit of the Orc
va railway, 1866 feet above sea level,
to the verge of the Pacific. You start
under the eye of the eternal SHOWS,
and you finish among humming birds
and palms. You start sick with the un-
speakable sickness of soroche, and you
finish In the ecstasy of an exultation
too great for words.

The New Dead Sea.

The new dead sea discovered by Dr.
Seven Henin in Tibet is described as
enormous in extent, but so shallow
that to navigate it one must wade half
Il mile to reach the Loaf and must drag
the boat half mile before it can be
floated with load. But the most re-
markable characteristic is the almost
incredible amount of salt. Boats and
oars quickly become as white as chalk
even the dress of the rowers soon be-
comes whitoned, while drops of water
sprinklcd upon a dry surface leave
globules like candle drippings.
