Sacred Trees.
ON the Boston Transcript.

There are many sacred trees OF India
which enter largely into the religious life
of the Hindoos. Chief among these is
the sami tree and tht trembling peepul.
Nearly all the higher hills ard rocks ia
the plains are crowded each by temple,
shrine or sacred tree. The pcepul Is
known as the king of trees. 1t is the
most holy, and the three great spirits Of
the Hindoos dwell therein. The worship
of the tree is the worship of the triad
Brahma, silva and E.shnu. Almost every
.ndI-I village has its peepul tree with a
raised platform or altar around it. The
devOut remove their shoes before IT and
make @beisance before proceeding on their
way.

LEGISLATORS Favor Home RuIe.

Judging by the number of local bills
that are being passed the sentiment of
the legislature is strongly in favor of
home rule In regard to regulating
saloons. The house has passed a bill
giving the common council of Portland
authority to reduce the number of
saloons from seven to four. The SEN
ate liquor committee reported out a
much more stringent measure for
Ionia at the request of Senator Yeo-
mans. 1t provides for one saloon to
each 600 population, which will re.
duce the number of saloons from 16 to
nine. Yeomans insisted on having the
bill reported out, and as it is a local
measure the committee decided to do
so, though Attorney George Nichols,
of Ionia, protested that a majority of
the common council desired to rescind
the action taken favoring such bill.
It seems that the original vote stood
to 3, which gave the mayor chance
to cast the deciding vote. There are
after the matter got to be a burning
issue six members OF the council want
ed to hold a special meeting to call
back the original resolution, but the
mayor refused TO issue the necessary
call Senator Wetmore also had To-
cal liquor bill reported out for Cadil-
lac. which provides that after April 80.
1908, no new saloons shall be estab-
lished except on basis of one for
each 1000 population. The little town
of Tekonsha III Colhodn county WILDE
dry for the next five years. 1t is now
in that condition, but there is local
fight every year, and the dominant fac
tor decided that it would be just as
well to have the legislature fix the
matter for a longer period and thus
save expense. At the expiration of
five years the question of dry VS.. wet
will be submitted cvery two years.
