OF Common Clay.

Big 6sted Jim Bailey rises in his
seat in the Senate to asperse the
character of President Roosevelt on
the ground that the President is
made of common clay" The time
has gone BY in the United States and
will prosah;3 never come again, when
a man to possess the confidence of
the people and to stand beyond the
reach of calumny and partisan attack
needs to BIZ, one born to the purple
and feeling himself above the mass
of humanity 1t is true that Mr.
Roosevelt is of common clay. No
man of our time is closer to the soil
of the common people in understand
ing their needs mad desires and in en-
deavoring to realize these in his pub
lie acts. Such man was Henry
Clay, the mill boy of the slashes;
such man was Edwin NJ. Stanton,
the deck hand on the ferry boat; such
a man was James A. Garfield, driving
the mule along the towpath; such a
man was Admiral Sampson of the
navy, tramping over the country with
his father in search of work by the
day; such man, pre-eminently was
Abraham Lincoln, born of the poor
whites of Kentucky, nurtured in the
backwoods of Indiana and Illinois,
surrounded by such sordid and lowly
conditions that he never of his own
instance referred to them in the days
of his after greatness. The high
places of honor in American history
are for men of common clay, and not
for supercilious aristocrats of the
Bailey type.-Indianapolis Star.

Treatment Of Stomach Worms Of
Sheep.

1t is during the summer month:
that loss from the twisted stomach
worm of sheep occurs. and flock own.
ers should early endeavor 10 pre-.
vent their Aocks from becoming dis
eased. Healthy adult animals sci.
dom become affected with this dis.
ease, and the greater part of the loss
occurs among young and weak ami
mails. However if the conditions arc
favorable for the sheep to become in
tested with this parasite, the death
rate among the mature animals is al.
SO heavy.
This disease is not as difficult to
treat successfully, as is generally be-
lieved. The preventive treatment is
very important 1t is based on keep
ing the sheep in a healthy, vigorous
condition, and among surroundings
unfavorable for the entrance the
eggs or larvae of the parasit, into
the digestive tract with the feed
Drinking surface water and perma-
nent pastures. especially IT pastured
close, are favorable for the production
of the disease. The preventive meas
ures that are most practical to use
under the local conditions can be
judged best by the person in charge
of the flock, and the success of this
part Of the treatment will depend on
the precautions that he deems ne IS
sary and the thoroughness with
which they are carried out.
Sheep raisers, who have lost sheep
from this cause in former years,
should not wait until the disease de-
velops in the flock before using med
ical treatment. The following mixture
is recommended by DIR. Law, and has
given excellent results: arsenious acid
one dram, sulphate of iron FIVE drains,
powdered nux vomica two drains,
powdered areca two ounces, COM
mon salt four ounces. This mixture
is sufficient for thirty sheer, and can
be fed with ground feed once or twice
a week. In case the symptoms are
already manifested, it should be fed
once day for two or three weeks
In giving this remedy in the feed
the necessary precautions should be
taken, or each animal may not get the
proper dose. Turpentine is largely
used in the treatment of stomach
worms. 1t is administered as an
emulsion with milk Zone part turpen-
tine to sixteen parts of MILK The
emulsion should be we'll shaken be-
fore drenching the animal. The dos:
IS two ounces for lamb and folr
ounces for an adult, and to be effec-
tive should be repeated daily for two
or three days. R. A. Craig,

NO WORK FOR MILLER.
Garfield Will Not Ask Attorney Gen.
eral to Act.

Attorney General Charles w. Mil
Ter has received a letter from James
K. Garfield, commissioner of corpora
tons for the federal goverument
saying that SO far as he now knows
he will have no work for the ,Indi-
ana attorney general to do with ref
erence to going after any of the null
titude of trusts that are now claiming
the attention of the public.
This letter was in response to one
written to Commissioner Garfield by
the attorney general several days
ago, offering to give any aid possible
in furnishing the prosecution of any
cases that the commissioners might
have in hand.
In writing to the Commissioner
Garfield. the attorney general ex-
planned that he was more handicap
ped, under the Indiana law than the
attorney generals of other states. In
Indiana, he has no power to originate
suits of custer or quo warranto. of
his own initiative, nor can ne compel
the officer. whose duty it is 20 bring
such suits.
1t IS the county prosecutor who is
the all important person with refer
nnce to such suits in Indiana, and
there is no authority that can compel
these prosecutors to bring suits of
any kind Hence though the attor-
ney general could advise in the pros
ecution of custer suits isuch as
would be brought against alleged
trusts), he would have no authority
other than that of advising.
In all probability bill will be pre-
sented before the next legislature,
asking that the attorney general be
given the power to bring such suits
IN the supreme court; asking that
this court be given original juris-
diction in these suits and asking that
the governor and the attorney gen.
eral be given the authority to COM
pei the county prosecutors to act.
Such bill was introduced in the
legislature of 1903. but was defeated,
the cry being that an INSCRIPTIONS
official could use it as means of i
blackmail.

The death of Mrs. Elizabeth Jones
of olumbus, Ind, recalls the contract
that was made between Mrs. Jones
and Joseph /. Irwin 20 years ago
when he bought her farm, paying
her 81 day as long as she lived.
Mr. Irwin paid her 1865 year for
20 years and would have continued
had she lived to be 100 years old.
Out of this resource she had saved

A SIGNAL VICTORY.
Was That Gained by President
Roosevelt in Rate Legislation
Contest.

1t looks very much as if Presiderl
Roosevelt had outwitted the railroad
senators and had won most re-
markable victory over corporate IN
uence in the senate. The extent oil
the victory or the amount of good
it will accomplish cannot be deter
mined until a decision of the United
States supreme court shall interpret
the broadness of the court review
amendment submitted by Senator
Allison, the adoption of which was
the turning point of the great fight
1t may confidently be expected
however, that the amendment was
entirely satisfactory to the president
and his advisers, and that its adop-
ton in no way will detrimentally
affect the general workings of the
law controlling rates.
That President Roosevelt played
deep and successful game of poll
tics is plainly apparent. When the
rate bill was being considered by
the Elkins committee the fact was
made notorious by the character OF
the hearings that it was doomed to
defeat. .Ex-Sena or Faulkner, OF
West Virginia, railroad attorney
and lobbyist, took an active part in
the hearings and was reported to be
an adviser of Senator Elkins, who
is also from West Virginia and is a
business partner of -ex-Senator Faux
nor. In order to cover the bill with
contrmcly and cause it to become re-
pugnant. to the Republicans of
the senate the Elkins committee de-
signated Senator Tillman as chief un-
dertaker to cover the bill with legis-
lative crepe and steep it through the
obsequies of humiliating defeat in
the senate 1t was here that the rail-
road senators made their mistake
President Roosevelt called the turn
by taking steps to unite the Demo
cratic and Republican senator's favor
ing rate legislation, and by bringing
2 tremendous pressure TO bear on 9th
ers who had not yet placed them
selves on record either for or against
the bill Through shrewd tactics he
succeeded in securing a majority
vote and would unquestionably have
had the bill enacted by the Demo-
cratic and Republican coalition had
the railroad senator's not surrendered
and agreed to the Allison amend
ment. Rather than allow such a pop
ular measure to be passed by Demo
cratic senator's and then be put on
record as tools of the railroads FL
kins and his followers laid down and
are still flattened with their faces to
the ground
1t is natural for the Democratic
senator's to feel that they nave been
betrayed while on the eve of success.
1t was through them ths.t President
Roosevelt was enabled to whip the
railroad senator's into line. But they
were not sold out as stated by Sena-
tors TiIlman and Bailey. 1t was the
abiect surrender of the Elksns men
that caused the Republican, of the
senate to unite on the Allison amend
ment. And while the Democratic
senators were disappointed in not be-
ing able to score the credit of being
responsible for the railroad rate leg
islation, the passage of the bill will
nevertheless be great victory for
President Roosevelt
