small farmers of New Zealand

small farmers of New Zealand began to prosper. They have prospered ever since. So far the government has lent to the farmers about $2O, ,O0O, 900, but it has saved them $40, ,0OO, 900 in interest. because as soon as 1t came into the field with it's cheap loans, interest rates dropped everywhere. You see Shylock has fled from these shores and will not return.

Editor PICAYGNE:

C. M. 1IOOl, ubliSlItl. Editor PICAYGNE:
 The energy with which the state and federal authorities are going after many corporations which have for years oppressed the public with monopolies and trusts is certainly encouraging. It is undoubtedly true that this has been brought about by the press and people demanding these reforms in such emphatic tones as to teach the politicians that their tenure depends on giv- ing the people some relief. As soon as the agitation ceases the work will cease. and these same public servants will drop back into their old forgetfulness and unfruitfullness. This leads Us to say that all reforms must be- gin with the people and work up.
 Corporations, and We mean now railroads in particular have grown so arrogant that they for get that they are the creatures of law and that law is the will of the people as expressed in their courts and legislatures. Judge CaIweIl. in deciding d case in which the widow of a brake man had sued for damages for the killing of her husband caused by the failure of the railroad to furnish cheap safety appliance said, that when 1t became cheaper for the railroads to fWn- ish these safety appliances than it was to pay the virdicts of jWieS they would furnish them.
 Every one knows there should be watchman at the Elm street cro sing in Prescott. A few good. healthy verdicts for damages for iniures inflicted by trains at this crossing will cause the company to place one there.
 There is not a saw mil in the country that is not sustaining serious loss because they cannot get cars. A few good yirdicte for damages will clear up the situation and plenty of cars can be had. \ railroad can onIy be reached through the treasury. fit is cheaper to introduce re- folms than to pay the damages assessed by juries for not doing so, no reforms will come. We do not believe in unjust virdicts: but we do believe that when the proof shows the damage, the iuries should assess it and thus vindicate the law, give justice to the claimant, and improve the service for all the people, A failure to do so is an injustice to the claimant and to the public at large.
 Tke name of the writer of the above communication is for eel tain reasons withheld, but he is q man who has the common good at heart.
 The wreck of human life on railroads is appalling. We have not the statistics at hand, but there are more people killed @aach year on railroads than ale elled annually in an ordinary
