More Light on Texas Fever.

A dispatch from Columbia Missouri. to the Kansas City Star states that pr. J. w. Ccnnoway of the agricultural faculty of the University of Missouri has discovered that Mexican fever or "ramilla" in cattle Is identical with Texas fever. The discovery will be of considerable importance to the cattle interests of the southwest
 "Ramilla" has ravaged the herds of Mexican cattle for many years and has caused the United States government to enforce rigid quarantine laws re- garding the shipment of cattle into and out of Mexico. Dr. Connoway's ob- servations of the disease led him to believe there was a similarity between It and Texas fever. Tn cooperation with an agricultural society of Mexico he has been conducting a series of experiments by which he has proved that the two diseases are identical and that the preventive measures adopted to prevent the spread of Texas fever are equally as effective for Mexican fever.
 pr. Connoway made the discovery several years ago that the deadly Texas fever was propagated by meaps of ticks on the diseased animal, The discovery, which was pronounced by veterinarian authorities to be the most valuable in the nineteenth century, has done much to increase the value of the live stock industry Of Texas and other southern states. His recent discovery that Mexican fever is identical with ize, to a great extent, the cattle in- dustry of Mexico.

dalmios saw that the emperor, to be all that the name implied and in a position to rank with the rulers of the western world, must be possessed with the powers which the princes then en- joyed. Hence they brought about a voluntary surrender to the emperor by all the feudal lords of their titles, rank, lands and revenues, and thus enabled the government to be thoroughly re- organized under the modern system of nations"
 We doubt if anything quite equal to this evidence of sheer love of country can be found in history. In Europe feudalism yielded gradually, contest ing every inch of the way to the march of modern civilization. In Japan in a moment from no other considerations than those of patriotism, the barons voluntarily surrendered not only their feudal rights but their estates and revenues to the benefit of the crown. The abolition of the shogunate unified the Japanese nation and made the Japan of today possible.

it is an instinctive and just tribute to the nobility of the spirit of the author ized version. That way of writing English has perished out Of use, and the very best committee of revision had Newman and Carlyle and Emer- son and Matthew Arnold sat in har- monious deliberation-could only have produced a cheaper version"
 The substitutions in the new version fully confirm this judgment. With hardly an exception they are so drear- lily prosaic. commonplace and mechan- ical as to exasperate every lover of the old forms of English every time he reads one or hears it read. To such it is in no sense means of grace" to listen to a service in which the revised version is employed.
 Nevertheless the greater accuracy of these changes gives them a special value for; scholarly or critical research, and in some cases the old translation went so wide of the mark &s to make the substitution of true rendering essential to correct knowledge Of the text. Perhaps this is as good a time for the change as the Christian churches have seen for centuries, since many have never become familiar with the splendid imagery and sinewy Eng fish of the cd standard Bible, and so will miss nothing in making the change

A Reminder to the Women.

Today's joyful celebrations in honor ef St. Patrick should remind the laoles ag inc debt they owe to St. Bridget Let the men honor St. Patrick-he de- serves it all-and let the women )oin in honoring Ireland's patron salnt' put let if not be forgotten that St sBridget' too deserves more than q passing trl- bute.
 For it is to St. Bridget that the wo- men owe the privileges of leap year. Every woman who proposes to the swain of her choice this year should remember that it was St. Bridget who persuaded St. Patrick to grant the liberties which are peculiar to leap year. Bridget, so the story runs, asK- cd St. Patrick for a year in whlcn maids might. with perfect propriety. woo. St. Patrick at first allowed his fair pleader one year in seven, but sne finally succeeded in beating him down to one year in four. Whereupon st. Friaeet, willy girl that she was, inn ,tASiat atelv turned around and asked St. Patrick himself to marry her. The aoed man cnly made his escape by compromising on new silk gown ana a hlessing for the fair Bridget.
 For ourselves, we doubt this latter part of the story; for although St. Patrick was not obliged to live bachelor, it is known that the was too austere and too busy with weightier matters to bother himself with matri- mony-and Bridget knew it.
 But we hope that when Arizona wo- men get the ballet they will make the ssth of February a legal holiday and dedicate the same to the honor Of St Bridget

Hnw EeudaIIsm Was Ended In Japan.

The great secret of the progress Ja- nan has made in the last fifty years, bridging in that period in its own na- tional development the age-long dis- tance between the dark ages and twentieth century civilization, lies in the faith the Japanese people of the more intelligent and ruling classes have had in the destinies of their country. This sense of destiny is na- fienal genius and the Japanese have 1t ia a high degree. It has enabled them te make extraordinary sacrifices when necessary to promote public welfare.
 ~. An instance is cited by ex-Secretary of State John w. Foster in his book, sAnaerican Diplomacy in the Orient" which is worth quoting. Half cen- tary ago. when Commodore Perry snade his historic epoch-making visit to Japan, that country retained in full blow the system of feudalism. At the head of the state, as in the case of France and Germany and all Europe ia the middle ages, was the mikado, but the land was in the possession of the feudal barons, sometimes friendly and loyal to the emperor and some- times in revolt. At that time the present mikado had just come to the throne, but the actual reins of the government were in the hands, as they had been for two centuries, of the shogun. Laws existed against foreign intercourse and all foreigners had re- gently been expelled. Naturally some conflicts occurred in which foreign residents suffered and their govern frnents undertook to obtain reparation. Also depredations had been committed the feudal lords were at the same time supporting the authority of the sho- gun and another portion were backing the young mikado. With these dissen- slons at home and difficulties threat ening abroad, the wisest of the barons realized that the empire faced a criti- cal situation. Believing that national unity could be obtained in no other way one of the principal followers of ahe shogun advised him to surrender his authority to the mikado. The sho- gun was impressed with this council and called his leading supporters to- gether. The majority approved 1t. He thereupon resigned his power and sent notice to the mikado that he would henceforward give him loyal service and support Thus the shogunate sud- denly came to an end. MT. Foster tells the rest of the story. which is still more remarkable as testfying to Jap anese patriotism:
 "In the same year an event occurred which Is without precedent in the his tory of nations and which is the high est testimonial of the patriotism of the public men of Japan. For ages there had existed in the country a feudal system of the most rigid character. The princes, or daimios, were the su- prene rulers in their respective pro- vinces. the lcrds of the domain, and entitled to the unreserved service of their retainers and the people.

DEMOCRATIC
GUN IS SPIKED
Commotion, Indignation and
Humiliation Exists.
ALL FROM BAR BANQUET
Negro Attorneys Were Admit
ted to the Table.

Guthrie, o. T., March 9.-There il
commction. indignation and humiliation
in the Democratic household of Okla
homa and it is all caused by the banquet
recently given to Judge Burford in this
city.
The Democratic leaders Of the territory
have been trying to make capital out
of the Roosevelt Booker Washington in
cident and when it was learned that
two negro attorneys had attended the
banquet and clinked their Champagne
glasses with such prominent Democrats
as Chief Justice Frank Dale, ex-Associ-
ate Justice a. c. Bier and Edgar w.
Jones, candidate for the Democratic
nomination for delegate TO congress. the
average oklahoma Democrat began to
look around to see if the earth was going
TO open and swallow him.
The Democratic papers over the terri
tory have hastened TO publish a dispatch
from this city stating that the Demo
Gratis were compelled to bear the indig-
nifty because the two negroes aforesaid
were the invited guests of Judge Burford
and TO have objected would have been
an insult to their host. hTat is very
plausible explanation because the prom
inent Democratic attorneys named are
polished gentlemen. The fact is, how
ever, that there is nothing in it
The banquet was given in honor of
Judge Burford by the attorneys of the
bar and the distinguished judge was the
guest of the attorneys and the colored
brothers being members of the bar were
invited by the committee having charge
Of the banquet. The Democratic attor-
neys who attended the banquet, probably
never thought anything about the color
ed brothers Of Tie bar being present at
the banquet until somebody suggested
that it might be used In the territory to
offset the Booker Washington affair
The rank and file of the Democratic
party in the territory are being given
pointers that their prominent leaders did
actually Of choice dine with cOlored men
and they are at a loss TO know what to
90 about it. They see that it VIII elm
inate the Booker Washington affair from
the stock Of Democratic thunder and
that they regard as unfortunate because
some cf the leaders have been talking
about a white mans ticket next fall.
The Democrats might help the matter
By politically killing the three Democrats
named but that would prove n dangerous
experiment. IT would be like the team
ster who should kill his two wheel horses
and expect the leaders to pull the whole
load. The banquet was a very nice affair
nnd nothing would have been said about
the presence of the colored attorneys if
the Democrats had not begun to offer
excuses in order that they might sthl be
able to appeal to prejudice to the injury
Of President Roosevelt. That Democratic
gun is now spiked in Oklahoma and the
Democrats will not be able to drill it out
before the next election.

1t was learned today that the women

they considered that they were illegally

The governor requested an opinion from

Simons was absent from the city and il

into the caucus and told the assembled
statesmen that they had come To take

the ladies named the candidate. He was
promptly nominated.
Many of the attorneyes considered that
former Attorney General Roberts hewed
rather close TO the line when he held
that while women in the school districts
had a right TO vote for school officers.
there was nothing in the law giving wO-
men in cities of the first-class a right to
