1t is the only way that cohesion of
action can be obtaiLed and results
secured. Of course, these bills will
be subject to amendment when they
come up for passage and then the
individuality of each member be
preserved. One thing, however,
must be constantly borne in mind:
there must be concert and unanimi-
ty Of action or nothing will be ac-
complished, and the republican
party will face the next election
without any foundation on which
to build successful campaign.

ALFALFA AS FORAGE CROP

ALFALFA AS FORAGE CROP
Prof w. ]. Frazier, of the University
of Illinois, in recent interview on al
falfa as forage crop, said: alfalfa
is one of the best crops to grow for
soiling, for two reasons: Because it
furnishes a larger amount of nutri-
ment per acre than any other crop
grown, and because it grows up rap
idly after being cut off, and furnishes
continuous supply of green feed.
When a fair-siZed field is cut over, a
portion each day as needed for food,
the first side of the field is ready for
cutting. Under proper conditions this
crop will yield four tons of hay per
acre. With yield of four tons it
furnishes more than twice as much
protein as clover at three tons per
acre and about three times as much
protein as corn at 60 bushels per
acre. Many farmers have failed in
attempting to grow alfalfa, but it has
been proven repeatedly in most Sec
lions of Illinois that alfalfa can be
grown successfully if attention is
given to limeing, inoculating the soil
and getting all the conditions right"

THE SPEAKER SHOULD COME
FROM THE COUNTRY.

In the opinion of the Herald the
next speaker should be selected
from outside the cities. The re.
publican party is facing crisis in
its career. 1t lost heavily in the
last campaign and it would have
lost still more heavily if the demo
Gratis had realized their opportunity
and put up more candidates. In
the next campaign it will be a
fight along the whole line. Unless
the republican party takes steps to
win back the confidence of the
people the result will be doubtful.
All the concerns which will seek
special legislation have their head
quarters in the cities and their in
fuence radiates from there. The
Herald does not intimate nor does
it believe, that any of the city can
didates for speaker is connected
with any such concern, but it is
hard to convince the great mass of
voters that man residing. in a
large, city can achieve sufficient
prominence to secure consideration
for as important a position as
speaker without being the repre-
sentative, in some way, of corpor-
alton of some kind. This may be
prejudice, but it is honest preju-
dice, and it has so often proved the
case that the great body of voters
are leary of placing city candidates
in a position where they virtually
shape legislation The best pre-
liminary step for certain and Cum
plete republican victory in Mime
sofa ini1 sOs, would be to place q
clean, strong, capable country mem
Der in the speakers chair.

HOW TO ACCOMPLISH RESULTS

HOW TO ACCOMPLISH RESULTS
There will be flood of bills in
troduced in the coming Legislature.
Railroads, taxation, drainage, good
roads, the primary election law, a
girls reformatory and host of
other propositions will receive at
tention. If the usual course is fol-
lowed practically every member
will introduce one or more bills on
these subjects. Each member will
naturally press his own pet measure,
the session will be frittered away
for want of unity of action.
The legislature is republican, the
dominant party is always held, and
rightly SO, responsible for legisla-
ton. If bad Legislation is passed,
nothing is done, the republican par
ty must bear the odium. If bsne-
fetal Legislation is enacted it will
be entitled to, and far-minded men
will accord to it, the credit.
The republican members should
caucus on all the more important
questions. Committees should be
selected to prepare bills on them.
For example, committee should
be selected to prepare a railroad
bill, another to look after the sub
ject of taxation, and 40 on, and on
ly one bill be presented on each sub
ject-and that republican bill.
Party caucusses are almost invari-
ably held in the national house of

RAILROAD DISCRIMINATION.
s 100 IF Paid In Advance

Railroad discrimination has work
ed infinitely more harm to the bust
ness interests of the country and
the prosperity of the people than
railroad extortion. With the pow
erful instrument of discrimination
a railroad corporation can build up
prosperous, populous city in a
wilderness and can transform a pop
ulous, prosperous city into a wilder.
ness almost in day. 1t can make
a millionaire out of pauper or
make millionaire pauper in a
brief space of time, and both these
results have been accomplished
many times in the business history
of the last few years.
Whenever village, town or city
receives more favorable freight
rates than another similarly situat-
ed, the favored town will prosper
out of all proportion to the one dis
eliminated against, and every man
who buys or sells in the town that
receives this treatment suffers a
rank injustice. If more than one
person engage in similar business
in the same city and one is favored
in the way of cheaper Transports
ton he will eventually drive his RI
walls out of business and monopoly
is created and whenever any bust
ness is monopolized the people suf-
fer. No man, or set of men, are so
benevolent that they can monopo-
lie any business without grasping
for eAtortionate profits. Railroad
discrimination has done more to
build up the gigantic trusts and
monopolies with which the country
is afflicted than all other agencies
combined. Does anyone imagine
that the people would have contract
ed to give the railroad corporations
the extraordinary advantages they
have granted them if they had
known that they would be COMPEL
ed to pay tribute to favored individ-
uals and corporations besides paying
their own freight? Is there anyone
80 Obtuse that he does not know
that railroad violates it's implied
contract with the people every time
it practices discrimination? Will
any fair-minded person question the
fairness of the proposition: that
for transporting the same amount
of the same kind of freight the same
distance railroad company has no
moral or legal right to charge one
party more than another? Does
anyone doubt that the law-making
power of the nation and state can
compel the companies to live up to
this principle?
1t is the paramount duty of the
incoming legislature to see that the
laws forbidding discrimination are
rigidly enforced, and if our present
laws are not sufficient to do this to
enact those that will.

The true theory of republican
government is that the property of
the nation should pay the expenses
of the nation and every dollars
worth of property should pay an
equal share.

Confederate Reunion.

The Confederate Veterans As.
sociation of New Orleans has
been granted permission to use an
entire square of ground only three
blocks below Canal street upon
which to erect its auditorium for
the reunion there April 25. 26, 27.
A year ago all the quaint old
French and Spanish buildings in
this block were torn down to
make way for a new State court
house, construction upon which
will not begin until next year, so
the entire space is available and
practically in the heart of the city.
The sqnare faces the old st. Louis
or Royal Hotel, which latter now
in disuse, will probably be con-
verted into rooming hotel for
veterans and with cots should, be
able to accommodate 1000 or
more persons.
The old st Louis Hotel was
where the White Leaguers, in re-
construction days, held United
States troops in state of siege
The old "Black Legislature" also
held forth there. and before the
war the place was the mecca OF
Louisiana fashion. The Grand
Duke Alexis of Russia was enter
tanned there at one of the carnival
balls in the great domed ball
