Not only has the rinderpest been q

tons, says Brewster Cameron, but it
is so persistent that when it has once
smitten a herd of carabao, it is impos-
sible to put others upon the same land
for five years thereafter, without their
falling victims, too. That is what
made so striking the success of the eX-
periments with the serum prepared by
the board of agriculture. A herd of

fected with the rinderpest by a herd
that had recently died there. When
the error was discovered there was
great alarm; but to everybody's as,
constituent and delight the newcomers
went through the ordeal unframed,
proving the effectiveness of the treat
ment they had received.
That twin plague, the locust, is
something of which the American
who has not seen it with his own eyes
can have no conception. One day 1
was writing at desk with my back
to the window, when suddenly the
apartment became dark, as il it had
been artificially lighted and some one
had put the lamp out. l glanced
around to discover what the matter
was. and found the sky and all the
landscape blotted out OF view; ]
looked, in fact, into solid cloud-bank
OF locusts. They formed dense wall
between the house and the objects OH
the other side of them. In place
where l saw them descend upon tree,
they covered it so that there was not
a silver of wood or foliage visible. The
next day every shred Of LEAKAGE was
gone; the tree had been stripped as
clean as if scraped with a sharp blade.
That is the way they ruin the products
OF the earth; and the discovery of a
fungus which, spread over the ground
where they have swarmed, heaps it
with their dead bodies, is considered
one of the greatest of boons.

Who Pays for This Magnificcnce?

was seen. Compared to the Presidents
train, those of King Edward and Kai-
ser Williams would look like an Amer
lean train of emigrant cars.
The fact is that essentially this is a
"deadhead" train. The President and
his companions are guests Of the rail
road companies over whose various
lines they are carried in this compare
lively luxurious style.
They enjoy the ''hospitalities" of the
railroads. If there is any arrangement
for reduced fare-and everybody knows
that they are not paying full fare-it is
a fragrant violation of the interstate
commerce act and the ,Elkins law.
The railroads can afford to make this
concession even if the sacrifice amounts
to the entire sum which their passen-
gers would pay at full rates. 1t is a
splendid advertisement. They will pick
up along the route thousands of passen-
gers going to the towns where the Pres
ident will make his spectacular appear
ances. They have big government con-
tracts for mail and other transporta
ton. 1t will be money in their pockets.
Looked at from the other side-the
propriety of tk@ Presidents action in
accepting this ''deadhead' favor, in
whole or in part-the intelligent people
who will consider the case must form
their own opiniOn.-Chicago Chronicle.
hmm migrants as Strike Breakers.
Nearly 10000 immigrants week are
now landing in New York, mostly from
the highly protected countries of Eu-
rope. They are driven out by the high
taxes and cost of living in the small
tariff-protectcd countries. These, aided
by poor crops, have produced very hard,
times in continental Europe and have
squeezed out these unfortunates. They
have come to a country Of high protec-
ton, as high as is that of any other
country in the world; but because of the
great extent of this country and the
fact that there is absolute freedom of
trade between it's States (many of
which are as large as most of the Euro-
pean countrieS) and because Of a sue
cession of good crops, times here are
fairly good. In fact they are consid-
cred very prosperous by the trusts.
These immigrants have arrived here too
late to participate in our prosperity.
They may, however, be useful to the
trusts, as breakers, for there are,
just now, hundreds of thousands of
men out on strike for higher wages.
