Odd Origin of Custom.

In Abyssinia the emperor is COM
monty called ian hoy" meaning his
majesty" The words have a strange
history 1t is given by passage In
the chronicle OF Mahiaro Aiarvam.
The King Sara Dengel y alie ENGAGED
In a military expedition campsd in
Dambya, was surprised to hear
the inhabitants shout Jan how"
which means Hi, ELEPHANT" at an
elephant which was destroying field
OF corn, and fed when thus accosted
Then the king said that whenever he
went TO pillage corn, If the people
cried Jan hoy!" he would consider
their claims and redress their wrongs.
From this arose the custom of ad.
dressing the king as ian hoy" as an
equivalent for asking for justice, the
expression gradually losing its SPA
oiai Significance and becoming the Or
binary term of address when speaking
OF his majesty.

FREE TRADE AND TRUSTS,

Mr.. Bryan says that absolute free
trade would not necessarily make a
trust impossible" Then it's rather
certain that there is no solution OF the
trust problem. If to kill the whole
business of the country, TO shut down
the factories and put the workiugman
on soup house rationS WON'T make It
impossible for trusts 10 exist, then are
we up against II.
The recollection is, however, that
even such free trade as was provided
for in the Wilson bill not only prevent
ed new trusts from springing into ex-
istence but destroyed the old ones.
This part Of the record OF the Cleve-
land administration was all that could
be deserved but unfortunately the
free trade theory of Democracy put in.
to practice not only destroyed the
trusts but destroyed everything that
was worth the while. Ii destroyed
the market for products of home en-.
terprises, and this necessarily cut Off
the demand for the American laborer;
the American laborer unemployed
that the farmer had no market
for ms produce, the merchant had no
sale for his goods, the banks could not
loan money, no Improvements were
made, the country was in the tliroes
of despair, In destroying the one
evil by the Democratic free trade
method all good things were destroy.
ed That proved TO the country some
thing like the removal Of the heart TO
cure an ingrown toenail would prove
TO the individual,
In denying free trade the one virtue
OF prevention and destroying trusts,
Mr.. Bryan has taken away from this
principle, any right to existence. III
1t isn't any good for trust busting, we
don't wont It for its other busting"

Oriental Brewery Trust.

There is q brewery trust in Japan.
Once Japan imported all the beer she
consumed. after a time she learned
how To make her own beer, and at sew
er1l places breweries were established
with japanese capital. These for a
time competed-with the usual result.
In 1904 the government itself con-
ceived, planned, initiated and organ
lied the brewery trust of Japan, and
now directs the trusts operations. I'm
der government direction the trust has
thrived amazingly, and while stupid
competition has been eliminated no one
has been injured, no one has been gar
roted or robbed Meanwhile under
government control the amount OF
beer exported from Japan in 1905 was
double the amount exported in 1904,
and the amount exported in 1906 will
probably double the amount exported
In 1905, for under government direc-
ton japan is beginning to seize the
beer trade in China and Korea.-Every-
body's Magazine.

It, not by turning the question over TO
the people but by working out some
plan whereby sufficient means can be
furnished both institutions in such a
way that the continual squabble be-
tween the Institutions Is settled for
all time to come The people want
both institutions to grow just as
rapidly as the states resources will
permit, and all they desire is that
their representatives sdecide what
proportion OF the states taxes can be
reasonably devoted to higher educa-
tion. This decided and the money
fairly apportioned, the two schools
can rest safe in the assurance OF a
regular income to be used as the two
boards may deem best,-and then the
cause for contention is eliminated.
The plan now is to give the two big
schools one and half mills assess
ment on the states property, the
University TO get 60 per cent, of the
money raised thus, the Agricultural
College to have the remaining 40 per
cent. This means that every man tr
woman assessed at 81 900 would pay
Sl.50 cents a year for higher educa-
ton. Isn't the mill tax solution the
easiest, the most satisfactory The only
just one?

garden be irrigated, says the Garden
Magazine. The soil is deep, rich and
comparatively new, so there is no need
to add fertilizer. The one thing needed
here, at 2.24S feet elevation is water in
the earliest spring. And for economy's
sake our vegetable gardens are placed
sufficiently near to the house so that
the one well can serve the two. During
the four months, November, December,
January and February, the average
monthly rainfall is only about half an
inch, yet the average annual precipita-
ton is 20.35 inches. This means that.
while in the spring and summer
months there is liberal supply of
moisture, tn ground may be so dry
In the early spring that the garden
plot must actually be watered before

planting. Fancy that, you easterners

All Kinds of Rates.

Mr. Parsons says this rate business

stance, "we have open rates and secret
rates: rates to develop business and
rates to kill off business: Industrial
rates and political rates; rates born OF
friendship and rates born OF enmity:
rates forced on the railroads and rates

they make long face before legisla.

that the north pole will be directly
