Keeping Our Secrets.

The secret and the "hello" girl collectively have been courting some attention. A charge that they could be separated has agi- tated the girl and aspersed the good name of the secret in its vital relation to human confidence.
 Even Missouri legislature who is keeping pace with the events of the day have taken notice. Keep ing secret has blossomed into q bill to make telephone and tele- graph companies liable for the dis C osure of secrets in the transmission Of messages. The measure only ac- centuates the importance of both the "hello' girl aud the secret. The real secret behind the question of whether the girl operator can keep from repeating what she has overheard the wires say is that silly old saw about . secret being unsafe with a woman.
 A secret is secret and it is inn portant that 1t should be kept. Whole nations have been over thrown by the tattler. History affords glimpses of a few women who have wrought havoc by the craze to tell the secret that burned within them, but they were not ''hello girls. They were of that envied class who neither toll nor spin. Perhaps trying to keep a secret was the hardest work of their lives.
 Modern business strategy de- pends for its strokes upon keeping its tactics dark until the proper moment. The woman who earns her bread in it's ranks are too busy to attach any false values to a bus. mess secret. She hears too many to start 10 repeating them. A days secrets would keep her busy all the evening retailing to her sweetheart. They are shop talk. Besides she has her own secrets which take up all the spare mo. meuts of her of time. Really, there seems little cause for fearing that the .hello" girl or the s,en- ographer will burden themselves or bother others with our business secrets.-Republic.

The 2.cent passenger fare rate passed the House last Friday by vote of 93 to 2. The bill was immediately transferred to the Senate, where 1t is most likely to be passed, and the Governor will, probably, sign the bill, and 1t may be that inside of the next month people can ride on rail roads at the low rate of 2 cents per mile. This will be q great saving to the travelling public aud if the railroads can afford 1t and earn just compensation II will be just. Otherwise not, for no corporation can be required 10 operate at q loss.

The result of boodling in the last General Assembly has had a most demoralizing effect, and IS likely to work an injury in more ways than one.

he Outlook Bright.

Tbe outlook for the Southern cotton farmer was never brighter. His product will become greater and greater in demand. The world must have it, and twenty years from today you will see the consumption just about double what 1t is today.
 The cotton farmers have never asked too much for their product. Notwithstanding the cry that they have formed trust, simply because the farmers have organiz- ed | union, they are not asking more than their product is worth.
 It was stated that the cotton farmers could not afford to hold their cotton. It was stated that they would be forced to dispose of their bales as soon as gathered in order to get bread and meat to live upon That was one of the great arguments put forth by spinners and the manipnlators when the farmers began organizing. The average cotton farmer. 1t was stated, produces about seven bal es annually. He has this mortgaged before 1t is produced and he must sell 1t at once and pay up or his merchant will refuse to carry him. Even though he gets II cents that means only about $3So for his en- tire crop, and he always starts in planting his crop without d cent and IS forced to mortgage his pros poets. He never will get beyond this point. Those were the argu- ments.
 But the Southern cotton far. mer has reached that point where he can hold back the crop and mar ket as conditions warrant and insure fair price. The Southern cotton farmer has taught himself diversification. He grows other things aside from cotton and lives upon these other things. The Southern merchants and bankers have come to their rescue. With all these forces combined the cot ton grower is in position to com mand q fair wage for his years work. And now those who did not believe that he could ever reach such point are beginning to raise the cry of trust. Let it be what 1t may, but the spinners will never again see the day when they will be able to wax wealthy at the expense of the man who grows cotton. They will never again see cotton marketed for and 0 cents -EXchange.

Once the policy of e~eiusiveness was abandoned. the natural bent of the Japanese towards naviga
 ton and sea life asserted itself. From the very start, however. merely mercantile considerations were subordinated 10 the national needs and policy. Mercantile shipping Wa. freely encouraged by the government. even to the ex. tent of the granting of subsidies out of a treasury but i'll fitted to make such grants. but II was not merely the commercial results that were aimed at. the military neces
 sites and the foreign policy of the empire taking first place in all cal eulations. Thus Japan refrained from risking foreign wars until the tonnage was available for nov ing her troops and their supplies.
 Thus no sooner was the war with China over than Japan et- tered energetically on a policy of expansion for her mercantile ma rine as well as for her navy. so that by the time the war with Rus sia broke out the mikado had not only | navy sufficiently powerful 10 cope with the Russian fleet, b Il he also had tonnage enough to transport armies capable of meet ing Russia practically in her own territory. The result of the war with Russia has naturally still further augmented the Japanese merchant marine. as the willy islanders evidently are desirous of improving to the utmost the trade opportunities that are held out to them.-New Orleans Picayune.

Boodling Made 0dious.

Legislative boodling is again made odious by the vote of the Arkansas Senate expelling Sena- tor Reuben K. Adams after refus. ing to accept his resignation.
 The Senator loses his place in the Arkansas Legislature for d paltry sum of SIoo, which his con science did not permit him to keep. In the session of two years ago he sold his vote on the corrupt bill relating to the building of the new State Capitol, but afterwards returned the money to Senator Butt, who has been tried and con victed for his corrupt practices on that measure.
 Both Butt and Adams well earned the punishment they have received. The purchase and sale of votes in q legislative body is, as Governor Folk has said in his message to the Missouri Legisla. ture, a crime against popular gov ernment which cannot be too stern- ly repressed.
 Arkansas's successful war upon legislature corruption is an en- couraging lesson for other States. It proves that 1t is possible to de- teet and punish corrupt lobbying and bribery. It gives force to Governor Folks recommendation that lobbying with members of the Legislature for pay be declared q crime by the laws of Missouri.- Republic.
