dismissed, is an extraordinary
usurpation of power unwarranted
by the constitution. The Presi-
dent has the power to grant par
dons, but the power to compro-
mise felonies before conviction if
allowed TO pass without serious
objection might in time grow to he
prerogative of the executive
which would in the hands of a
tyrant, allow his partisans to com
NIT any crime and no proceedings
at law to be taken against them.
The laws must be obeyed by the
President and the people alike or
in time despotism and even anarchy
might overthrow all the safeguards
granted by the Bill of Rights.
The President has certain powers
granted his Office by the constitu-
ton, and they are very great, but
to be Judge and jury is not one of
them. No wonder conservative
people are becoming alarmed at
Roosevelt.
There are many politicians in
Washington at present, and the So
called Iowa idea" is discussed by
them with much interest. The
Iowa idea is that the way to
curb some of the trusts is TO re-
move the tariff schedules that shell
ter them. The President and the
StandpatterS hold that war ON trusts
must not include any changes of
the tariff. The difference is radi-
cal. Hence the interest i'm the

HERERORDS FOR ROSEMOET.
Mr.. Clapp Purchases $4,000 Worth Of
Cattle in Kentucky.

MI. X r. Clapp, the owner of
Rosemont Stock Farm, has Just
purchased a big consignment of
Hereford cattle from the Giltner
Brothers, of Eminence, Ky. The
following open letter from Giltner
Brothers tells of this immense
purchase, and describes the leading
members of the herd:
We beg to report the following
sale of Hereford cattle to G. f.
Clapp, of Berryville, Va, which
is of special interest, inasmuch as
it Is the largest single transaction
ever made in Herefords south of
the Mason and Dixon line.
After figuring with the leading
Hereford dealers on both sides of
the ocean, Mr.. Clapp purchased
Acrobat of us at $500, which is
the highest price known to have
been paid for a bull of his age in
the world, with the exception of
Grove 81 and Lord Wilton. Ii Is
generally conceded that Acrobat is
one of the most phenomenal sires
of the breed. There is hardly a
Hereford herd of note in the
United States but has the blood of
this great sire represented either
in their herd bull or in their lead
ing females.
Mr.. Clapp secured fifteen head
of females ranging in price from
$3.50 to 5000 per head. This con-
signment embraces the very choic-
est COWS of the Hereford breed.
among which may be mentioned
the champion show COW. Benson.
which won innumerable first pre-
miums and sold at Sotham's dis
pcrsion sale for ST. $50. She has a
bull calf at foot by the ST, 900 Pro
tector.

males. bred to the Champion Brit

Imported Butterfly, with heifer
calf at foot and bred To Champion
Britisher.,
Viola, by the Great Well Done.
who was a full brother to the
champion Sir Bredwell. that sold
for $4,000. This COW is also safe
in calf to Acrobat.
In fact every female purchased
by Mr.. Clapp is of the very choic-
est blood and individuality. and
with such a foundation his herd is
sure to stand in the first rank of
Herefordom.
The total amount of Mr.. Clapp's
purchase from lis reaches nearly
$40, 900, and. in addition 10 this,
he has supplemented it 10y selec-
tons of the choicest specimens
from several other prominent
herds.
In addition to this, our banner
sale. we have enjoyed Il nice trade
with parties from Tennessee, Vir-
ginia and West Virginia. The
demand for the better class of
pure-bred cattle seems we'll nigh
Unsuitable.
