THE MAIL ORDER DANGER.

It is to be regretted that reputable
farm journal like the "Agriculturist''
should find it necessary or even ex-
pedient to advocate the patronage of
mail order houses by the farmers of
the country.
Much has been written on this SUBJ
ject and much of it has been like the
seed of the sower which fell on stony
ground, largely because it has been
agitated by papers which would be
ruined by driving out of business
the smaller merchants and it has been
the impression of the purchasers that
the arguments against the mail order
business were Influenced by sordid
Not the least prominent in the adj
vocacy of the mail order houses, by
Implication at least, are the agricul-
.tural journals. Their pages are filled
with the advertisements of dealers who

The Sleeping Beauty and the Beast.

The Sleeping Beauty and the Beast.
The talk of the stage world-indeed,
the talk of the entire country, is the
production of that bewildering, daz-
zling spectacle, "The Sleeping Beauty
and the Beast" which will be at the
Metropolitan Saturday evening, and
which was made known to New York
ers the season before last. The news
paper reviews have simply exhausted
their vocabulary of adjectives in heap
ing praise upon the magnifcence of
this extravaganza. and they also adj
kind offered so much in the way of
genuine laugh producing specialties.
The audience, when it's senses are not
dazed by the grandeur of the beauti-
full scenic and light effects and gor-
geously gowned girls which constant
'ly feast the eyes, is indulging in up
roarious laughter at the antics, comic
songs and witticisms of the comedians.
AS beauty show, it is remarkable,
containing the pick of both English
and American stages, so far as physi-
cal charms are concerned; in fact.
there is an international hue over the
whole affair. The Sleeping Beauty
and the Beast" received it's birth at
the Drury Lane theatre, London, which
ranks first among the pretentious pro-
ducing houses of the old world and
makes distinctly new era in the his
tory of theatricals. and to Klaw &
Erlanger, who have been identified
with so many mammoth undertakings,
must credit go for this recent achieve
ment.

THEY ARE BENEFACTORS.

The death of two children in Min
nesota recently from poison taken in
worm medicine is an unanswerable
argument in favor of purity in the
commodities purchased by the public.
Food manufacturing has reached that
stage where much is prepared for the
table before being put on the market.
1t is so prepared that adulteration can
only be detected by scientific test-or
by the death Of the victim. One is
impractical. the other too late.
The same thing is true of so-calIed
patent medicines. There are a few
which are harmless, both as a dele
FERROUS agent and as cure.
But many of them contain elements
which administered in improper guam
titles, become death warrants to the
person taking them.
There is but one way to prevent the
dangers arising from their administra-
ton and that is heroic enforcement
of law preventing their sale.
If druggist prepared prescrip-
ton with half the carelessness and
disregard for dangerous results as the
patent medicine veldor uses in prepar-
ing his nostrums. he would be con-
sidered a murderer at least.

The purpose which prompted and

as reassertion of our earnest belief
and of our answering purpose. Re-
publican principles are here to stay
and The Evening Times proposes to
support them against every kind of
effort to supplant them.

Press is officially informed that the
German government has suggested an
adjournment of the second peace con-
ference at the Hague in order not to
interfere with the Berne Red Crosse
conference where the Geneva conven-
ton will be revised. Germany has not
suggested July as the month for the
conference but is trying to persuade
Russia to postpone the assembling of
the Hague conference so that the
North, Central and South American
states maybe able to send represen-
tative to the European conference
without interfering at the same time
with the Pan-American congress at
Rio Janerio.

charged with subordination of perjury
and conspiracy in connection with
government land deals. The case
was transferred to Topeka from Wich-

PRIMARY LAW UNCONSTITU.
TIONAL.

TIONAL.
The news columns OF today's Even
ing Times contains an opinion from
the supreme court of Nebraska con-
STRUNG provision of the primary law
of that state similar to our own and
holding that the law is unconstitu-
tional.
The reasoning of the supreme court
is based on one of the generic prn-
ciples of free government-that the
legislature can enact no law that will
hinder any man from becoming can
didate for public office.
BY requiring fee OF all candidates
in the primary election before they
can have their names placed upon the
ballot is a step towards monopolizing
office holding by the rich under the
sanction of law. 1t thus operates in an
unfair manner against the poor man
who seeks an office. and becomes NOR
ally at least class legislation
Every eligible person has right to
be a candidate for public office with
out being subject to arbitrary or I'M
, reasonable burdens. The voters have
right to choose any eligible person,
and he owes duty to the public to
qualify and serve. People ex rel.

sonable regulations. such as a petit
ton from proper percentage of vot-
ers which would show that they want
the privilege of voting for him, or
other reasonable conditions or restric-
tons may be imposed. If there were
not such conditions the ballot might
be SO large as to be impracticable
but there can be no discrimination
between candidates based upon the
ground that one has money to pay
for the privilege of being a candidate
and chooses to pay and another has
not the means or is unwilling to buy
the privilege.
The only reply is that candidate can
be nominated without having his name
printed on the ballot; that he may
have his name printed on a sticker
and cross put in the square in front
Of 1t, and if he secured enough votes
in that way he will be a nominee of
the party.
That argument does not call for
much attention. 1t is foregone con-
clusion that the candidate will be
chosen from those whose names are
on the primary ballot, and if it is no
answer to the argument against an
illegal and arbitrary discrimination in
favor of one who Is able and willing
to make a cash contribution and
against one who is unable or unwill-
ing to do SO to say that the voters
may use sticker with the name Of
a candidate on the ticket and put a
cross in the square. The supreme
court of the state of Nebraska, having
under consideration similar provis-
ion as indicated in the news column
of The Evening Times, which was held
to be illegal and said: ITO say that
the voters are free to exercise the cleo
tive franchise at a general election
for nominees in the choice of which
unwarranted restriction and hind
rance were interposed would be hol-
dow mockery."
The same statute has been declared
unconstitutional by the supreme court
Of Illinois, and the governor of that
state has called a special session of
the legislature to remedy the defect.
