MORE GRAFT CHARGES,

Under the Jeff Davis military quar-
antine system the boys of the state
guards are required to leave their
homes and do service day and night
at As cents day, while his notary
rublics walk through the trains
swearing passengers at so cents a
swear, grating as high as $3.50 a. day
What do you think of that?-Hot
Springs News.
It was "heralded far and wide
when Gov. Davis got his new board
of health going that the graft business
ceased; that health certificates with
notary public's seal and signature
were free. Many of Jeff's spoilers
began to howl about what jeff had
done-had put an end to graft. If the
News is correct as to the charges 1t
makes, the graft business is still go
ing at lively pace, and if notary pub
lies are holding up passengers at 81
cents each, then a few nOtaries ought
to be kicked of the trains. Perhaps
that would put an end to it.

A RACE AGAINST DEATH.

The story is more thrilling-and OF
another kind-than BalZac's Country
Doctor"
Way up in the little mountain town
Of Thermopolis, in Wyoming, lives a
physician known hitherto TO few save
his neighbors. At a mine near Nee
teetsee. 100 miles away, there was an
explosion, and number of men were
badly injured. The doctor at Thermo-
polls was asked by telegraph if he
would come and relieve the suffering
of the wounded. He instantly respond
ed:
Il am coming as rapidly as I can
get there"
The road from Thermopolis to Nee
teetsee is not paved-not even with
good intentions. 1t is rough trail
around precipitous cliffs and through
6eep winding canyons. The only way
tc go is by horseback and the journey
requires two days.
But Dr. Richards rode the 100
miles in II hours.
Fancy that ride! the discomfort of
it. 1t was made at breakneck speed
changing horses as soon as one ami.
NAL was jaded.
But men we're suffering-dying per.
haps.
Happily, says the Salt Lake Her.
aid, which tells the story, the doctor
arrived in time to relieve the dis.
tress.
It was wild ride against death.
And heroism won it.
The Herald writer uses the occasion
to pay a noble tribute to the profes-
sion of which DR.. Richards is a worthy
member The compliment is we'll de.
served by the men Of medicine who
count all but loss if by any means
they may save some.
Only the other day a brave-hearted
physician crawled under an engine at
imminent danger that he might use
his hypodermic syringe to ease the
horrible torture of the dying engineer.
pinned to his death.
Honor and praise to such men-
types Of heroic profession.

THE MAN WITH THE HOE.

Agriculture is the basis of all
wealth. AS has been fifty said, civil
lization begins and ends with the
plow. Man is so constituted that he
often does not take cognizance of the
vast importance of inventions and
agencies which are near at hand and
to which he has become so accustom
ed by long usage as to look upon them
as matters of course.
While it is obviously true that the
prosperity of the whole body of So
ciety, yea, its very existence, depends
upon the farmer yet the fact is not
as fully and forcibly appreciated as
1t should be. says an exchange.
II universal disaster should befall
the crops of corn and wheat and cot
ton in the United States. so that none
of either was raised. the result would
be the most fearful, in fact, absolutely
ruinous.
A marked illustration of this truth
was recently seen. The condition of
the cotton crop was most unfavorable
and seemed to make impossible any,
thing approximating full crop, and
as soon as the truth was realized the
price of cotton went up
II none were raised, countless mil

and widespread financial disaster
cover the earth.
Thus it must be seen that the farm
er holds in his hands the commercial
destiny of the world. AS ponniaticn
increases the greater becomes the i'm
portance of the farmer and the great
er the dependence of the world upon
him. and correspondingly greater the
necessity for enlarged areas to be de-
voted to the PURPOSES of aericulture.
1t is by reason Of this fact that
ranches and waste lands must WELD
to the dominion of "The Nan With
the Hoe" He is moving westward
and as reservoirs of water are prov:d-
ed to make clad and fertile The arid
deserts, he touches them with the
hoe and they respond by a generous
yield of those products which millions
must have and eagerly wait.
