house in district No. 5, for the
purpose of organizing a Farmers
Union or what is known as the

weather. Mr.. Matthias Walters,
being called by the chairman for a
speech, responded with great en-
thusiasm. Mr.. Walters gave
quite talk on the doings of the
American Society of Equity and
encouraged the farmers to organ
ize and become as one; then only
can we win. Mr.. Walters was
followed by the reading of an
"Epistle to the Gentiles' by Mr..
L. w, Brown. Tom spoke from
his epistle with the oratory of
Foraker and was applauded loud
and long. Mr.. AIph Rarick being
called to the floor, made rousing
speech, He spoke one hour and
sixty minutes. Among the many
good things that he said was, that
four years ago he could buy an
old grain drill for thirty dollars;
now we must pay seventy for
new one. Everybody enjoyed
themselves and all agreed to meet
again in the near future.
We see in the correspondence
from some old chap, quoting
scripture about sne-bears. We
bet he has seen a few In his time.
Read and pray on, old chap, you
have no hay-seed in your hair.

No serious consequences are to. be
feared from the failure of the special
riksdag committee to report favorably
upon the bill presented for the dis
unionization of Norway and Sweden.
The bill, says the committee, is impos-
sible of adoption by the riksdeg in it's
present form, but at the same time
this committee proposes that the
Swedish parliament negotiate with
Norway to the end that should dis
solutionsbe effected it be done upon
amicable grounds. It is safe to say
that no clash of arms will signalize
the dissolution of the two coun-
tries.

It is perhaps not generally known
that no law exists for the regulation
Of interstate express charges. There
is Minnesota law, however, govern
ing. charges for express shipments
within the limits of the State which
gives the railroad and warehouse
commission power to correct over
charges, but once the shipment crosses
the boundary there is no redress. The
interstate commerce law in all it's
ramifcations sayeth nothing about
the regulation ofexpress rates. so that
the great transportation trust can
with impunity charge whatsoever it
pleases it does. This is an inn
portant feature which should be
brought before congress and the law
amended SO as to provide for the reg
ulation and supervision Of express
rates throughout he country.

Now comes the story that Uncle Sam
will have a formida able competitor for
his Panama isthmian traffic in an
h-Mexican syndicate now en-
gagged in constructing a railroad
across the isthmus of Tehuantepec
which will consist, when completed.
of four tracks. One Of these tracks
will be. in operation at the end of the
present year and the other three adj
ded as fast as practicable. It is pro-
posed by this syndicate said to be
actually the English and Mexican
governments-to build a large feet Of
powerful vessels which will. operate in
conjunction with the railroad and thus
control the traffic of both oceans.
The estimated cost Of Transporting
freight over this new route, including
loading and unloading at terminals,
is sixty cents per ton as against the
proposed Panama canal toll of 81 per
ton. If the English and Mexican
governments contemplate that their
project will have the effect of deciding
Uncle Sam to abandon his canal oper-
ations they display their ignorance of
the character of the man. Competition
or no competition that waterway will
be dug-and even though all the gov
ernments of Europe and Asia should
combine to oppose it's construc-
tion.

Unmolested proceed the prize fight
and the wrestling match. Not a dav
passes but many of these disgraceful
bouts are recorded in the dailies-
these exhibitions of bestiality and deg
radiation. And this is America
reputed to be the most civilized nation
on the face of the earth: Yet, withal,
it permits these muscular brutes to
ply with impunity their nefarious call
ings. It makes it possible for them
and their managers to live on the fat
OF the land by the application of a
well-devised system of fakery wherein
the result of the match is in the great
percentage of cases determined before
blow is struck or hold taken. The
stakes are of course divided between
the victor and the vanquished, as are
also the gate receipts. The public
gets humbugged and pays for it.
While the abolition Of such brutal
sports will doubtless some day come,
the pity is that they are now permit
ted to be carried on without the least
effort to prevent them. 81. 3 /

carelessness in continuing in use a
boiler which had been declared un-
