The Conscientious Villain.

No paradox is it, but demonstrable
fact, that in highly articulate So
ciety, the gravest harms are inflicted
not by the worst men, but by those
with virtues enough to boost them into
some coign of vantage. e. A. Ross
in an article in the Atlantic Monthly
points out that the boss who sells out
the town and delivers the poor over
to filth. disease, and the poapers that
prey. owes his chance to his engaging
good-fellowship and big-heartedness
Some of the most dazzling careers of
fraud have behind them long and re-
assuring records of probity, which
have served to bait the trap of vii
lafny Not that these decoy-virtues
are counterfeit. They are, in fact, so
genuine that often the stalwart sin
ner perseveres in the virtue that has
lifted him into the high place he
abuses. The legislator conscientious
ly returns the Doodle when he finds
he cannot deliver the goods" The
boss stands by his friends to his own
hurt The lobbying lawyer is faith
full to his client. The corrupting cor
poration-president is loyal to his
stockholders. The boughten editor
never quite overcomes his craft-in-
instinct to print "all the news there
Is" In a word, the big and formid-
able sinners are gray of soul, but not
black, so that chastisement according
to their character rather than accord
ing to their deeds lets them off far
too easy.

Hay for Sheep.

The best hay for sheep consists of
clover and the tame grasses. Timothy
hay by itself is not so proftably fed
as is the same hay when mixed with
clover. The timothy hay is composed
of too large quantities of fat-forming
elements and has a too small pronor-
ton of protein. This latter gives
great vigor to the sheep and goes
to make muscles and the more sinh
stantial portions of the carcass.
Strangely, only a minority of the own
ers of sheep have as yet found ont
that the clovers make a more profit
able hay for sheep than the more COM
monty used grasses.

SMALL HOMES IN FRANCE.

France may be called the home of
small farms. Homes, with patches of
ground well titled, account for the
happiness and prosperity of the peo-
pie. As the Review of Reviews says:
"In a number of unostentatious but
convincing ways the French people
are demonstrating to the world that,
in spite of many political and indus
trial obstacles, and In the face of an
almost stationary birth rate, they have
not lost their position as a great pow
er."
A multiplicity of land owners thrift
ty and contented householders, will
contribute most surely to the stability
and greatness of a nation. Enormous
estates, with an army of tenants, are
less adapted to promote a country's
welfare.
In the past, with the relative sparse
ness of population, Americans have
not appreciated adequately their land
owning opportunities. But as the
country is becoming thickly inhabited,
the advantages in this respect are
more apparent. This is a growing
condition; the near future Will en-
hance the value and desirability of
real estate.
Wageearners, in particular, so situ-
ated that they can acquire homes Of
their own, will make no mistake in
doing so, even If a mortgage be nee.

billues OF American farms have been

RACE PROBLEM Is SERIOUS

\ staff correspondent for the St.
Louis Republic wires to his newspa-
per from New Orleans an interesting
story from which the following ex-
tracts are taken;
zone week ago today, sitting in the
lobby of the hotel at Roanoke, VT,
I heard native citizen of good repute
say that the only problem his state
faced was that of the negro.
Driving to the fair grounds, where
Bryan was to speak, heard negroes
use language towards white men that
would have provoked a fight to say
the least, in Missouri. In North Car
olina. where whisky is not common,
the negro was more civil and tho
same thing may be said of parts of
South Carolina; but at Atlanta on
Thursday, I heard half a dozen men
say that the negro question is the
only one OF real moment to the south
One gentleman said that he expected
every day to be the last of peace be-
tween the two races.
Crossing into Alabama l read in a
prominent paper a declaration that
the south would know no peace until
the last negro had been deported. 1t
is not for the purpose of sensational
ism that I say that the south is at this
moment sitting on a powder magazine
the ignition of which may come to-
morrow, or next year, or in a decade,
The trouble is not with the white race
The negro has mistaken liberty for
license, and he gets more than any
white man in the same walk of life
Fifty southern towns go to sleep
every night looking for the sort of
thing that has occurred in Atlanta,
and to most of them it will come
sooner or later. Kindly correspon-
dents. who naturally shelter the real
feelings OF the people, say that boys
are responsible for the outbreaks
against law and order, but every ex-
preston / have heard on the subject
came from men of repute who face
the subject with genuine regret and
every pisgiving."
