The Omnfscient shay.

| Secretary Shaw's conception OF
what the powers Of the secretary Of
the treasury should be, is akin to the
Kaiser's opinion Of his exalted omni-
science of "me and Cod" He told
the Kentucky bankers convention
that 1T would be both wise and safe
to clothe the secretary of the treas
ury with authority 10 require banks
to increase their reserves at certain
times, when money is redundant, and
to expressly permit the maintenance
OF a somewhat lower reserve at other
times" Of course, Shaw knows when
1T would be wise and safe" to initiate
currency and to contract it, and un-
der the dictation of the Rockefeller
bank, which no Republican secretary
OF the treasury seems able to evade,
would never think Of using this ex-
traordinary power in the interest of
the Wall Street gamblers. Still
there might come time, if Congress
was foolish enough to expand instead
of diminish the powers of the secre-
tary of the treasury, when that Off
cial might be tempted by those fren.
zied fnanciers, by promises of pelf
and power, to DO just what the peo-
pie who pay the taxes, did not want,
or, at all events what would prove
to be against their interest and to
the great advantage of the bankers.
What is needed is the Democratic
plan of divorcing the United States
treasury from Wall Street and nation
al bank influences and thus take away
the temptation of using the money of
the people for improper and partisan
purposes.

Politicians who claim to be for a
man, yet claim that he has no chance,
are really for somebody else and are
playing politics. They really do not
mean what they say, and generally
are heart and soul against the man
that they profess to be for, and are
using professions of friendship to
make their hostility more effective.
Some times they delude people, and
some politicians who tried that game
on Senator Noel three years ago, will
try it again, but it will meet with a
different result. A mans friends and
supporters are those who aid him,
and not those who seek to undermine
his candidacy.

n Clear Record.

The chief question for settlement
in this State, the one over which there
will be the hottest fight in the Legis-
lature, and most in election, is the
control, regulation and taxation of
public service corporations, and keep
Ing them out of politics. In some
states they have heretofore controlled
politics almost entirely, so far as it
affects themselves, not only in lodging
taxes but in practicing extor-
tion and discrimination. From now
until the presidential election, these
questions will overshadow all others.
On these matters Senator Noel has a
clear record. In 1882, he opposed
the twenty years exemption from
taxation of railroads, and the provi-
sions by which they sought to pro-
tect themselves against state super
vision; and was in the very front of
the fight. Afterwards when legislation
was attempted, by which back taxes,
even when in judgment, should be
discounted at fifty cents on the
dollar, with the State paying costs,
he again led the fight for taxing cor
porations just as individuals are.
This has been his position always.

BY CLARENCE n. LANE,
The condition Of the farming indus.
try as seen on the average farm points
to the need Of better business methods
and more definite knowledge OF the
sources OF profit and loss. In no de.
partmcnt connected with the farm Ia
there more need for absolute data than
in the dairy.
The records Of progressive and I'm.
progressive dairymen indicate that
there Is no business which shows
greater range Of profit than that Of
dairy farming, Investigations Of cream,
cry patrons illustrate this most strik.
ingly and show that one dairyman fire..
quently makes double the profits of his
neighbors.
Good judges believe that one fourth
OF the cows of the entire country kept
for milk do not pay the cost OF keeping
and nearly one-fourth more fail to
yield an annual profit.
Records Of the performances Of dairy
cows form the only accurate and safe
basis for Judging their value. 1t Is the
constant aim Of progressive dairymen
to improve their herds, and such i'm.
provement must depend largely upon
culling the herd and getting rid of the
