A student of the horse, says the
New York Press, thus explains
where EmersOn's epigram, glitch
your wagon to a STAR" originated:
Long before the war there was a
famous trOtting stallion of the
name of American Star, belonging
to one Seely. American Star
mares became scattered all thru
New England and New York, for
they were the best. rOadsters in
the country, and every farmer
must have one. 1t soon became
well understood that in order not
to lose the respect of the commu-
nifty one must drive nothing else.
Later it became a subject of ban.
ter. If one farmer passed another
on the road he would look over
his shoulder and shout. "Why
don'tyou hitch your wagon to II
Start" Unquestionably Emerson
many IA time had heard the re-
mark, and in his lecture on civil
ization at the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition in 1862 he rung it in for
the first time, advising mankind
in general to aim high aud Glitch
your wagon to STAR" thus con-
verting a common incident into a
fgurative illusion.

In Grand Old Missouri.

fun at Missouri and some Of her
Officials:
The Democrats of Missouri
ought to ask themselves what it is
that makes them fond of symp.
toms of distress. To make this
question clear, one or two state
ments of fact may illustrate it.
Senator-elect William j. Stone has
succeeded, even without whiskers,
by force Of an emaciated and
agonized facial expression. The
state capitol is dear to the people,
because it leaks and might tum-
BILE down before a stiff wind.
1t may seem to be violent min
Cling of alien things to place to-
gether the venerable state house
aud the former governor, but they
are related in that particular sug-
gested for introspection. The
same principle is exemplified in
other seemingly heterogeneous
manifestations. Gov. Dockery
has been accustomed to wear tight
boots, with their inevitable dis
comforts, and as a result there are
certain sections of the state remote
from railroads where the peop lie
are very proud of him.
1t is the easiest thing in the
world to arouse enthusiasm while
speaking of the states institutions
for the blind and insane and fee
BILE minded, They are so wretch
eddy poor and inadequate and over
crowded, and have to beg so
hard for just enough money to rub
along with, that whenever a poll
tician like Mrs Dockery wants to
get votes he speaks of them with
pride aud recommends that taxes
be cut down so that in no posi-
bility can their distress be allevi-
ated.
Taxes for macadam roadf would
be like offering an snsult to ones
ancestors. The good old mud road
the gumbo of the Told Missouri
shOre"-Or the ridge road thru the
woods-what could try the patience
and provoke to profanity and give
the farmers something to grumble
about, of these were replaced by
good highwaysi "Sweet are the
uses of adversely"
If the state university were
really prosperous and indepen-
dent and able to hold its own with
like institutions of other states,
the Missouri Democracy would feel
that it had lost an old and valued
friend. To make sure that this
calamity will not ensue, the APP
preparations asked for by the cur
atOrs and president are to be cut
down and the curators treated as
if they We're asking for the children
of the state.
1t may be that the question first
asked and the tumble of examples
given will start the Democracy of
Missouri on inquiry, and It may
come to the conclusion that it is
the victim of politicians and that
it really does not like pain and
poverty and cheapness. But APP
pearances are against it as long as
demagogues can exalt such things
and be applauded.

Henry Ward Beecher was ex-
ceedingIy clever at meeting an in

count. Once he read to an audi-

From Chicago comes the news that
an endeavor is about to be made to
unite and organize the farmers of
the United States into one gigan-
tic Farmers Union. Turnout III
inOis Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota and
Nebraska the preliminary work of
organization has commenced.
If the American farmers were unit
ed in body, us all the mechanics
in the several trades are united,
they could break up all the produce
exchanges, fix the price of farm
products to suit themselves lend
one another money at low rate
Of interest, elect public officers
who would take special care of tn e
agricultural interests, and, in a
word, dominate the politics and
commerce of the county. They
could cure half the evils that af-
flict the land, smash the food
trusts and take the country out of
the hands of spectators. All
men are dependent upon the far
mer, and he in turn is dependent
on no man. The farmers of the
country could starve out the rest
of the population.

1t was a bad precedent which was
established at the end of the legisla-
tive session in 1901, to allow the clerk
or secretary to destroy all the Vouch-
ers. Why the vouchers of the Legis-
lature should be destroyed when all
other vouchers are SO carefully pre-
served and examined is not clear. In
connection with the expenditures Of
committees there are some very ugly
rumors. The publication of the vouch-
ers would perhaps put a stop to these
rumors, but as long as they are not
published, or the public is denied access
to them, so long will the rumors con-
tinue to grow. Why should there be
secrecy about this matter? A clear
record will seek the light of day, and
will not strive to hide. Let us have the
vouchers and SO put an end to all un-
pleasant rumors.

CONGRESS AND COUNTY BILL.

The question of the validity of the
County Act can be tested either in the
Territorial or in the Federal courts.
. That the Federal courts can take juris-
diction is plain from the fact that Mr..
Cooper bases his arguments against the
jurisdiction of a board created by the
County Act upon the Organic Act, and
the provisions of the Organic Act can
be taken cognizance of by Judge Estee.
1t is an arguable point, however, as to
which court it would be best to have
the case tried in.
A decision by our Supremt Court
would rot be final, since that decision,
later on might be challenged. However,
on the other hand, it might not be chal-
lenged, and everything might go along
smoothly, but there would always be
danger of the challenge. The decision
from the Supreme Court of the Terri
tory would be more quickly obtained.
We should know very soon what the
views of these judges were.
The process in the Federal Court
would necessarily be longer, because
there would be appeal proceedings and
these would put the final decision
long way off, But when the decision is
reached, we could be satisfied that it
was final and there would be no fear
of challenge in the future.
There is still one other plan which
may De used, and that is to take the
County bill to Congress next December,
and have it passed as a Congressional
act There viii then be no clashing
with the Organic Act, and no POSSIBLE
ity of misunderstanding as to the pro-
visions. This could be passed so that
it could become law in January, 1904
and our arrangements need not be al
tered. Indeed We're an.adverse decision
given here by our Supreme Court, this
might be the course of the leaders Of
the Republican party here.
1T must be plain to any intelligent
person that our position is critical and
that there is grave danger of confusion.
The Legislature now in session is APP
propriating money for the two coming
years upon the superstition that the
County bill is all right. If the County
bill is knocked out, or if, being knock
ed out in the courts, it should fail to
