Bullock (Ala.) Breeze: This
feverish demand for legislation of
all kinds intended to circumscribe
the life and activities of the people
has been cunningly taken advan-
tage of by many schemers, who,
while ostensibly seeking to pro-
mote the public welfare, are in
fact Influenced by a desire to pro-
mote purely selfish interests, and
by still others to whom the chief
joy of existence is in the pleas
urable sensation of forcing their
own hobbies upon other people.

Arkansas Gazette: The figures
showing the value of the agricul-
tural products Of the United States
in 1905 afford some interesting
contrasts. For instance, the egg
crop was worth $500, 00O,O 600 and
the cotton crop S575, 0OO,0 900. The
egg crop was worth ten times as
much as the tobacco crop and al
most as much as the wheat crop.
The milk and butter produced
were worth more than the cotton
or wheat crops.

Railroad travelling in Belgium.

Railway travel is cheap in Belgium,
according to a report received at the
State Department from United States
Consul McNally at Liege. He saysl
that the Belgian state railway sells
tickets on a time basis which enablcsi
the holder to travel continuously, ifl
desired, for the period stated on the
ticket. within the limits of the country.
For instance, a five-day ticket will cost
$3.50, and a ~fifteen-day ticket, $7.72.
During the life of one of these tickets
1t serves as a pass, and it is only neces-
sary to show it upon request. The
above rates refer to second class only.
All that is required to obtain these
tickets is to present at the Office an
unmounted photograph of small sizes
which is attached to the ticket as q
means of Identification.

HEART RIGHT
When He Quit Coffee.

Life Insurance Companies will not
insure a man suffering from heart trou-
bic. The reason Is obvious.
This is a serious matter to the hus-
band or father who is solicitous for
the future of his lear ones, Often the
heart trouble Is caused by an unexpect-
ed thing and can be corrected If taken
in time and properly treated. A man
in Colorado writes:
IL was a great coffee drinker for
many years, and was not aware of the
injurious effects Of the habit till I be-.
came a practical invalid, suffering
from heart trouble, indigestion and
nervousness to an extent that made me
wretchedly miserable myself and a
nuisance to those who witnessed my
sufferings.
II continued to drink Coffee, how
ever, not suspecting that it was the
cause Of my ill-health, till. on applying
for life insurance I was rejected on
account Of the trouble with my heart.
Then I became alarmed. l found that
leaving off coffee helped me quickly, so
| quit 1t altogether and having BEEN
attracted by the advertisements OF
Postum Food Coffee I began its ID
"The change in my condition was re-
markable, and 1t was not long till T,
was completely cured. All my all
ments vanished. My digestion was
completely restored, my nervousness
disappeared, and, most important OF
all, my heart steadied down and be-
came normal, and on a second examine
ton l was accepted by the life insur-
ance company. Quitting Coffee and
using Postum worked the cure" Name

CURLING CORRUPTION.
Connecticut Has a New Political Re-
form Law of Sweeping Power.

The Connecticut State Legislature
which has just adjourned has placed
upon the statute books one of the most
sweeping political reform bills in the
history of any American commonwealth.
The new corrupt practices act, as it is
called, will have an immense influence
on future political conditions in Connec-
ticut. Hereafter any successful candi-
date for office who is found guilty Of cor
rupt practices is to forfeit his seat 70 his
defeated rival. Any citizen who has
proof that an election has been secured
by fraud can take his information TO a
States Attorney, who is then to ask
a Superior Court judge for a hearing.
eff" says the law, 'such judge shall be
of the opinion that the interest of public
justice requires such proceeding" he Is
to notify the chief justice of the Supreme
Court, who shall then name a second
Judge to preside with the first on the
case, the trial to be without jury. In
case the defendant candidate is found to
be guilty he shall then forfeit his Office
to his defeated rival, and be ineligible for
any ONCE for four years a~fterward."
In case a State officer, executive or
legislative, Is found guilty the court can
only decide as to the facts Of the trial,
and Is then to put the case before the
Governor, who has power to declare the
place vacant. In case a national officer
Is found guilty, such as 4 United States
Senator, the court Is to send It's fn2ing
to the Governor, who Is then to place it
before the judiciary committee Of Con-
Gress. In this way there can be no dis
nuta as IN the method of punishing Of
tenders who would otherwise be protect
ed by the constitution. In case it is
found by the court that a trial has
been asked out of spite and without
suficient evidence to convict, the court
is to have the power to quadruple the
costs Of the trial, which will have the
effect of eliminating many possible unfair
attacks on successful candidates.

Vermont once a Republic.

The Republic Of Vermont-such was
the name of the Green Mountain State
in the days of Ethan Allen and John
Stark before she joined the union.
Then her people had the marked char
acteristics of a free and independent
race and Vermonters have ever shown
themselves worthy of the brotherhood
Of ''the old thirteen" which they were
the first to enter after the adoption
Of the constitution.
The sturdy traits which made the
sons and daughters of this common
wealth famous il the eighteenth CEN
fury have been communicated in large
degree to their descendants. Aside
from recent additions to the population
by French from Canada Vermont al
ways has been singularly free from
foreign admixture. It's people are al
most entirely agricultural, and manu-
featuring is carried on by only a small
percentage Of the population.
No slave was ever owned in YER
mont and il was a Vermont judge who
brought to book a Southern STAKEHOLDER
showing a bill of sale for a slave he
sought to reclaim. The bill was re-
fused status in court and when the
naughty Southerner demanded to be
told what sort Of title would be ac-
