The Charm Worked Too Well.

A story of witchcraft in East Africa
was told at meeting of the Folklore
Society by Robert Webb. A man ap.
piled to witch doctor for powerful
charm to kill an enemy. He was given
a parcel to bury in the path down
which the victim was to walk To
test its efficiency the man buried it
just outside the door of the witch
3cctor's hut. A female slave of the
magician was the first to leave the
hut, and on passing the spot fell dead,
The witch doctor sued his client for
the valued Of the dead slave, and the
case was tried before the native
courts.

Not the Platform Article.

Mr.. Eugene \. FoSs of Boston criti-
cises Secretary Shaw for his views on
Canadian reciprocity and cites the fact
that Republican platforms have repeat
edly declared for reciprocity and that
prominent Republicans have babitual-
Iy urged it.
Mr.. Foss is correct. Republican lead
ors and Republican platforms are pro-
nounced for reciprocity. The present
tariff has a section providing for reci-
procity. But most of the conversation
that has been made within the last
few months touching reciprocity with
Canada appears to be waste of force.
The Canadians are not ready for reci-
procity. Canadian manufacturers an
tGgonize all the propositions that have
been made, except that they are will
ing to take much and give little. We
have joint commission to consider
Canadian reciprocity. The American
members are ready for the discussion
and awaiting the pleasure of the Ca
nadians. Those who regard as reci-
procity system under which we lose
a great deal and gain little or nothing
are not speaking of the kind of reci-
pracity for which the Republican plat
form and Republican leaders stand.
We have sufficiently tried the allega-
ton. What we must have next Is the
real thing-Boston Journal

Making Headyyay.

The one thing plainly evident is that
Mr.. Chamberlain's tariff scheme has
made unrhistakable headway. 1t does
not appear that he has gained many
supporters in the house of commons
among the members returned in recent
bYelections, but it is undeniable that
he has made many converts among the
minsterialists who We're elected in 1900.
The Irish party, too. IS apparently
ready to make terms with Mr. Bal
four's supporters in return for the es
tublshment of Il Catholic university
at Dublin and the amendment Of the
Irish land purchase act.
70 what extent Mr.. Balfour is pre-
pared to follow Mr. Chamberlain in the
tariff matter, however, is still un-
known. At present he seems disposed
to stop with simply tariff for retalin-
ton.
What the issue of this peculiar mud
lie may be it is impossible TO say,
but the indications are that the day
is not far off when appeal must be
Iade to the entire British electorate on
the tariff question. This would prob
ably result, in a wholesale realignment
of British voters, possibly under new
party names. The outcome of the mat
ter will be watched with deep interest
on this side of the Atlantic. New

l;ourbon Leaders Assert That the
D1bbIe of Prosperity Has Collapsed
and That the Time Has Arrived For
q Change In Our Economic System.
The Democratic party seems to be
CI,,ted upon one thought in connection
with making an issue for the coming
campaign. The leaders In congress, as
wen as the Democratic and free traue
vress throughout the country, seem 10
think it necessary to show In some
WAY that prosperity is on the wane. 1t
is, in fact, made very clear that Demo-
cratic success depends in large meas
urr upon adversely. 1t Is certainly
very curious condition OF affairs tnat
only through commercial disaster can
the Democratic party hope to be sue
cessfuI in the coming or any subse-
quent campaign.
Il will be remembered that the two
successes of this party in presiden-
tjal election since the civil war We're
during periods of great prosperity, al
though the Democratic managers sue
ccelel in making the masses believe
tnat they We're not well off or could be
much better off under a Democratic
administration. This was tried very
successfully In 1892, and ii Is evident
that the Democratic managers are in
tending to play the game over again
during the coming campaign. 1t will
hardly be so successful this year as 1t
was twelve years ago. The high
price contention will not avail this
time, when the workingman, In addi-
ton to the splendid living which he Is
getting, can pull out his bank book
and show what he is able to save be-
cause his full employment and good
wages enable him to have a surplus
after he has paid for all the necessa-
ripS and luxuries which he desires.
The very desperation of Democratic
leaders will lead to a campaign based
upon deception. They know that 1t
will be impossible to win i" any other
way, no matter who their candidate
may be, should they succeed in agree
ing upon one 1t is therefore the duty
of Republicans from now until the
close of the campaign to simply tell the
truth. carrying out the advice of the
lamented Senator Hanna to stand

bers Of the Pomona or county grange
and one member Of the legislative COM

through the legislative committee Of
the state grange, to the legislature and
to congress. This assembly was Or

these legislative matters. Jefferson is

GRANGE GOOD ROADS BILL.
Wherein II Differs From the Brown
low Measure before Congress.

Wherein II Differs From the BrOvvn-
low Measure before COngress.
Notwithstanding good many subor-
dnate oranges have adopted resoiu-
tions approving of the BrownlOw good
roads bill it is only reasonable to as
sumo that many have done so without
understanding its details fully. The
legislative committee OF the national
grange not long ago met in Washing
ton and went over this bill carefully
and also certain others bearing on
farmers interests and discovered there
in some features that the grange could
not afford to approve; consequently
they have had drafted and introduced
grange good roads bill. Some OF the
marked differences between the two
are outlined below:
The Brownlow bill provides for twenty
two members of the bureau and necessary
assistants on q total salary and expense
roll of $75 OO0 as compared with only three
commissioners provided by the grange Dill
on total salary Of $4,000 and necessary
assistants, their salary and the expense
total not stipulated, but left to the dis
cretion of the bureau and the secretary or
agriculture. The grange bill does not. as
the Brownlow bill does. prohibit the use
of funds for road building in municipali-
ties of 10 900 or more people. This Is also
left to the bureau and secretary Both
bills leave to these authorities the de-
cision as to the necessity for the high
ways applied for. The main point OF diff
ference between the grange and the
Brownlow bills is that the grange bill
provides that the applications must come
from the states territories through
proper public road officials, while the
Brownlow bill would allow any civil sub
division of a state to ask for aid II the
governor does not ask for 1t. This might
place the township or county over the
state in some cases and thus give only
local Importance to road building enter
prises Under the grange bill this objec-
ton is eliminated and the state must help
in the undertaking.
Subordinate oranges hereafter, In
passing resolutions relative to roads,
will do we'll to distinguish between the
Br0wnlow and the grange good roads
bill. The latter is one they can ap-
prove beyond a doubt. One feature OF
the bill which we consider decidedly
better for the farmers interests is that
the secretary of agriculture Is really
made the chief executive officer of the
road commission that the bill calls for:
indeed he has almost supreme control.
Knowing Secretary Wilson as most
members of the Order do, by reputa-
ton at least, as being most heartily in
sympathy with the farmers and work
ing for them in every possible way,
they can feel safe In trusting to him
and the commission over which he
would preside to carry out the pro-
visions of the bill.

A Suggestion For Pomona Grange
Masters.

We do not know that it is the Gus
tom generally for masters of Pomona
oranges to make annual addresses at
the last meeting of the Pomona In the
year, but we think it is a good idea.
This is done in the national and state
oranges, and the masters are thus en-
abled to give concise statements Of the
work accomplished through the year.
with outlines and suggestions for the
year to come. This is quite as essen
tal in the Pomona grange as in the
state grange. A concise statement Of
the work of the Order in the county Is
beneficial not only to the grange as
sembled, but. If published in the local
papers, enables those not members Of
the grange to see at a glance what the
Order is attempting to do in the coun-
ty. We commend the suggestion to
the consideration Of Pomona masters
throughout the country.
