Lieut.. Hannay is now stationed at
Fort Crook, near Omaha, and is son
of Col Hanny who is stationed at
Vancouver. Miss Young is charming
young woman. AS the mistress of her

Senator Clark, otherwise known as
the Copper King" of Montana, sailed
Wednesday on the Teutonic for a trip
to Europe. He is supposed to be in
pursuit of some famous picture, to add
to his already large art collection, in
view of the magnificent palace which
Dame Rumor says he is about TO
build in Washington, on Dupont Cir
Gle. 1t will be remembered that ne
purchased the old Stewart castle, once
the finest residence in the District of
Columbia, and had 1t torn down and
carted away. Then he got busy with
the palace he has been building in New
York. and apparently forgot all about
his Washington plans. Now that the
metropolitan toy is almost two years
old, it has probably ceased to interest
the Senator so engrossingly. AS he ex-
poets to return inside of six weeks,
he will not have time for expensive
art collecting.

something out of nothing. The
products of the soil keep every
gainful calling in operation. There
fore it is to the interest of every
business, every industry, every
profession, every legitimate call
ing, of whatever name or nature,
that everything possible be done
by the people and the state to fos-
ter agriculture. These facts are
recognized by the general interest
recently manifested by all classes
of business men in the fight
against the boil weevil of cotton.
Cotton is our most important COM
mercial crop, and astute men of
commerce and manufactures see
in any serious damage to the cot
ton crop q proportionate decrease
in their business, in the one case,
or an increase i'm the cost Of raw
material in the other. But the
cotton crop is not of greater i'm
portance to the general welfare of
the state than all other crops. In
fact small crops have uniformly
brought into the state more money
than large crops, but small crops
DO not afford so much material for
manufactures and commerce as
larger ones. The farmers inter-
ests are best subserved by good
prices; the interests of others are
served by large crops and low
prices. and yet it is generally ad-
mitted that in the agricultural Sec
ton, if farmers prosper every 9th
er business prospers, because the
farmers produce the wealth that
others participate in. For these
reasons all the people should feel
an interest in the general welfare
of farmers and not confine their
sympathies to sufferers from boil
weevil ravages. There are other
crops than cotton and other pests
than weevils, and there are other
evils and disabilities than those of
insects that are as harmful in their
tendencies as those that prey up
on the Heecy staple. Considering
its Importance to the general well
fare, agriculture has not received
the active sympathy of others than
farmers, and it must be admitted,
of farmers themselves, which the
public good requires. The public
is interested and should act. Now
that farmers organizations. farm
ers' institutes, experiment stations
aud agricultural colleges are wax
ling the people up to realization
of what may be done with proper
effort these factors should be pro-
noted by all public spirited peo-
pie. The people are the state and
what they determine should be
done will be done by the state.
| Therefore let us not confine our
efforts to the boil weevil. There
are other and worse enemies to
agricultural progress than weevils.
There are men who Oppose any
reform in which they will not or
cannot lead. and would, if they
could, paint the heavens dark
brown, if thereby they might OBJ
scure the light of day and make
fools believe they are mighty pro-
phets. They are other interests
cotton and worse pests than vice.
