EUloG or DOG.
The Famous speech OF Senator vess
OF Missouri.

y
OF Missouri.
One OF the most famous speeches
ever made by the late Senator George
G. Vest OF Missouri, was made IN the
course Of the trial OF a man who had
wantOnly shot a dog belonging to a
tiff, who demanded $500 damages
When Vest finished speaking the jury,
after two minutes elaboration. aFF-
arded the plaintiff $500. The fun text
OF the speech follows:
Gentlemen OF the jury: The best
friend a man has in this world may
turn against him and become his enc
my BIS son or daughter that he has
reared with loving care may prove
ungrateful- Those who are nearest

name, may become traitors to their
faith The money that q man has he
may lose It flies away from him
perhaps when he needs IL most A
man 8 reputation may be sacrificed in
a moment OF ill-cOnsidered action. The
people who are prone to fall on their
knees TO do Us honor when success is
with US may be the first to throw the
stone OF malice when failure settles its
cloud upon our heads. The one abso-
lutely unselfsh friend that man can
have in this selfish world, the one that
never deserts him, the one that never

the hand that has no food to offer. he
will lick the wounds and sores that

ness OF the world. He guards the
sleep Of his pauper master as IL he
were a prince, when all other friends
desert he remains. When riches take
wings and reputation falls to pieces
he is as constant in his love as the
sun In its journey through the heav-
ems If misfortune drives the master
forth an Outcast in the world, friend
less and homeless, the faithful dog
asks no higher privilege than that OF
accompanying him to guard against

FREE CHOICE FOR SENATORS.

From Denver Times
That the senators OF the United
States are not more directly chosen is
generally conceded TO be a mistake
What to do to change the custom is
the important question
Next week at the call Of Governor
Cummins representatives Of the states
are to meet in Des Moines to discuss
the best method Of securing the de-
sired change.
The delegates are appointed by the
governors Of the various states. and
thirty states had accepted at last re-
port
The object OF the convention is de-
scribed Officially as follows:
IAN effort to effect the crystalliza-
ton Of public sentiment; TO afford an
opportunity for consultation; to de-
wise plans for cooperation between
the states. and, if deemed advisable.
take steps to secure a permanent or
ganization for the promotion Of
movement looking to the election Of
United States senators by direct vote
OF the people
Two methods could be pursued to
bring about the desired result con-
stitutionaI amendment and by state
regulations which evade the cOnstitu-
ton in this respect, as is done in the
matter Of presidential elections
Legislatures can be made, by eth
er state law or custom, as pOwerless
in the election Of senators as the col
Iege Of electors is in the election Of
president
This solution is already in operation
in several states.
Texas, Nebraska, Alabama, Illinois,
Michigan, Oregon, Virginia, South
Carolina, Louisiana, North Carolina,
Tennessee, Wisconsin, Arkansas,
washington, South Dakota and Min
nesota already select their senators by
popular vote, either at general pri-
maries OF at the state elections, and
the constitutional function Of their
legislatures is in practice restricted
merely to giving effect to the pop
ular choice
It is probable that this method will
be recommended rather than the more
cumbersome procedure required for a
constitutional amendment
In any event this formal gathering
for the specific purpose Of securing
action will be an important factor in
bringing more rapid movement in the
desired direction

ANOTHER FINE STALLION.
Swan Strand Ships Imported Per
cherOn Here From IIlinOis-


Swan Strand, formerly a Sherman
county farmer, but now residing near
Cambridge. Ill. arrived in GOOdland
Friday. He shipped in a black Per
cheron imported stallion, which he is
exhibiting to the farmers Of the cOun-
ty with a view to selling the animal If
he can get his price
The stallion. while not Of extraor-
binary weight is an animal Of fine
parts and possesses one Of the finest
and largest necls Of any breeding
horse in the county.
Swan, like all OF the people who
have been away from GoOdland for q
season, was greatly surprised to see
so much building activity and i'm
provement in the city during his abb
sence. He did not say so, yet one can
read in his face that he left Sherman
county little too soon, as land values
have experienced a remarkable ad-
vance since he sold out his holdings
It is not altogether improbable that he
may decide to come back to Sherman
county.

A Dead One.
from Winona News.

From WinOna News.
Jim Felts this week showed US an
old document dated November 20,
1SS6-twenty years ago. 1t was a
charter for the Oberlin. Colby &
Granada railroad, and was signed by
thirteen citizens Of Decatur, Thomas
and St John counties, as charter
members. The capital stock Of the cor
pOratiOn was to have been $1,000, 900
and to be divided into 1000 shares,
with headquarters at WinOna. The
charter was signed by z. B. Allen, sec
rotary OF state. The relic was discOv-
cred among some old papers Of J. R
JacksOn's, and no doubt at one time
represented the hopes, fears and fin
ally the failure Of some Of the ener-
getic and substantial citizens OF two
decades ago. If the railroad as pro-
jected could have been built, western
Kansas would have been further ad-
vanced than it is at present The
charter is good for ninety-nine years
and it is not too late to make a win

REGULATE THEM NOW.

From Salina Journal
The report OF Secretary COburn
showing the wealth OF Kansas farm
ers. the immense value Of the crop
for the present year, together with
the excellent report from the wheat
fields for the crop next year, cannot
be otherwise than pleasing, Of course
to every Kansan- The state never en-
joyed such prosperity as at the pres
ent time, and compared with the con-
ditIon Of ten years ago, shows a won
derfuI increase in the material well
fare OF Kansas.
It Is considered remarkable that
from Kansas in the hour OF her pros
perity should come mutterings Of dis
content over conditions existing in
the railroad situation. and that an
earnest fight should be made from
here against the aggressiOns Of cor
porate wealth. The discomfort does
not arise from a people hard pressed
In a financial way, as did the populst
demands Of the early eos. There Is
no trace Of similarity between the
conditions then and now, or between
the reform movement OF 1906 and the
populist movement OF 1880.
And this is a reminder that in the
time Of general prosperity over the
entire country is the proper moment
for the correction Of commercial evils.
The people can act more conservative
" and with much greater safety. A
movement growing out OF hard times
Is liable to be cratic and incorporate,
but when the people are melted to
action by a sense OF common justice
there Is no fear Of destructive legisla-
ton or disastrous results.
A prominent railroad attorney OF
Kansas, discussing the sentiment in
this state regarding the control Of
railroad freight rates, recently argued
that the people are prosperous and
can stand It" Generally speaking
the idea expressed by the railroad at
torney has controlled the business
world OF America from the beginning
But there is no justice in the idea. and
It only shows the need OF thorough
and genuine reform in the regulation
OF our business principles The PEG
PIE Of Kansas are not demanding rail-
road regulation because OF poverty.
They are demanding 1t because it is
fair. honest and right. They are ask
ing that railroad domination Of poll
tics cease because 1t is to the best in
terests OF the country that it shall
cease. The basis OF the fight is upon
q more substantial footing than that
Of . money consideration Kansas has
prospered IN spite Of the fact that the
farmers have been robbed for years
BY unjust and excessive freight rates,
and viii doubtless continue to pros
per under the same conditions, but
because Kansas IS prosperous Is the
least excuse Why the railroads should
not be controlled; the lumber trust
regulated and the Standard on COM
pany and kindred combines held in
cheek
It Is not dignihed for a state OF na-
ton to wink at unjust and dishonest
practices because the people can az
ford It" The people cannot AFFORD tc
eountenance such conditions under
any circumstances. and a failure &c
move for q correction OF these evils
untE driven 90 It BY hard times
would demonstrate a sad lack OF NOR
81 sense on the part OF the citizens Of
kansas
