of home mixed fertilizers 90 compared
with the ordinary commercial brands:
"Oa every account, however, fnan-

better 70 buy the crude stock and
home mix if one uses a ton or more"

4 GnstronomienI Paradox.

We submit for the consideration Of
social philosophers the curious and posi-
bly, significant fact that the amount and
quality OF cieerfulness dispensed at a JEFF
fersonian banquet bears an inverse pro-
portion 10 the price per plate. If there is
any pessim.sm in the air it gathers black
est and densest where the feed is choicest
and wines the best For ten dollars YOU
may be quickly convinced that the repub-
lie is doomed and popular government all
but swept off the face of the earth. Al
the three-doliar rate you may imbibe the
feeling that possibly the shaky govern
mental craft can be saved by trying a new
crew. Among the dollar crowd you find
the only real regret is taat Roosevelt is
doins it all instead Of Bryan.
We shall not undertake TO explain why
optimism should come cheaper than pessi-
mism, or why it is that after consuming
ten dollars worth of solids and liquids
substantial and respectable Democrats
should entertain and be i'm q mood to lis
ten 10 the blackest opinions respecting
their country and their fellow citizens.
whereas for one-tenth of that sum d
cheerful and happy outlook upon life may
he acquired. with pleasing prospects for
the future. We only Dote the fact as it
appears from a perusal of the proceed
ings at the several separate and distinct
celebrations which the New York Democ-
racy held in memory of the immortal JEFF
ferson
Perhaps it is our excess Of prosperity
that leads men to extravaganza in provid-
ing the delights OF Grumbling; perhaps
there is scme hidden relation between pes
sinlism and indulgence in the pleasures OF
the palate However. we leave the eluci-
dation of our interesting discovery. as We
said at the beginning. to social philoso-
piers and lovers Of the paradoxicai and
the ludicrous.

STEAD'S VIEW CoMBATED.
His idea About Newspapers Is Char
acferized as shallow.

Prom he Chicago Chronicle.
An the same, William Z. Stead is an
International sensationaiist and is inter-
ested in peace only IN the same way that
he would be interested IN war, too, if lee
could create a sensation and get a fair
amount of personal advertising cut Of f..
Mr. stead says there would be peace
now If il were not for the newspapers.
and lie IS so much exercised over this
fact that he wants 70 have it made a
criminal offeDse for newspaper to pub
lish any false statement that is calculated
e. embr0il the nations
This Is a very shallow idea. because the
newspapers are only the modern way of
doing what was done when there were no
ssewspapers.
In those days rumors and gossip about
war and diplomacy were circulated orally.
II was a slow age. but this gossip had
the same effect thar the newspapers have
now. and il there were no newspapers. or
81 they were muzzIed. the same process
would be resumed.
The only difference is that the news
paper IS an accelerat0F It may produce
a war cloud suddenly. but Il can dIspel il
quite as suddenly. and the net result is
beneficial TO the world, just as d none
tary quarrel between individuals is prefer
able 40 z-clye months of slowly iucubat-
ing grudge
Mr. stead would send the editors 10
prison If they printed anything about in
teruati0ual matters that turned out to be
untrue. II this would DE good policy
about diplomacy. it would be good policy
about everything. and Mr. Stead. who
prints magazine, might be ia jail half
the time.
Sensational advocates Of peace are no
better than sensational advocates Of war.

Freak LEGISLATION.

When a member of the Texas legisia-
ture undertook, some time since, TO Sc
cure the enactment OF a law which should
regulate the length OF the beds IN hotels,
the average American declined to regard
the matter seriously. There was almost
as much amusing comment when the
Missouri legislature devoted considerable
time TO the wisdom OF giving tips TO ser
wants. other legislatures have also dis
cussed questions which failed to appeal
10 staid and conservative minds. but,
after all. nothing has yet approached the
actual enactment OF the legislature of
Kansas. This State has always been
noted for the eccentric character of its
legislators and its statutes. Sometimes
It was the -whiskeTed PETER and
sometimes it was the unsavory Burton.
Always. however. Kansas is in the front
with freaky men and still more freaky
laws.
Take. for instance. this remarkable stat
ute. which forms a part of the Kansas
enactments. 1t is found IN an act relating
20 automobiles. and regulating their speed
and operation on the public highways of
the State After defining what is meant
by the terms automobile" and motor
vehicle" il proceeds as follows:
Nothing in this section shall be construed as
in any way preventing ohstructing. impeding. EN-
harrsssing. or in any manner form Infringing
upon the Trcrogatiye Of ans political chauffeur To
rln an aut0mobili0us band wagon at auy rate he
sees at compatible with the safety Of the occu-
pants thereof: provided. however that not less
than ten more than twenty ropes De allowed
al all times % tran behind this vehicle when in
motion. in order 10 permit those who have hesu
fortunate as 70 escape with their political lives
an opportunity 10 be dragged 90 death; and pro-
viied further, that whenever mangled and bleed
ing political corpse imuores Tor mercy, the driver
OF the vehicle shall. in accordance with the pro-
visions q this bin throw out Il 4 lifeline
Imagine the duly-elected legislators of a
State solemnly Incorporating this absurd
declaration into an otherwise practical
and sensible law, and imagine The capac-
ity of an executive who afiixes his official
signature To such absolute foolishuess.
Could such legislation have been enacted
anywhere else than in Kansas We do
rot believe il could

Compliments to Nr. Meyer.

Here and now, with a full appreciation
Of the amount Of envy and jealousy our
action may arouse in Official circles. we
predict an unusually bright future for the
newest member of President Roosevelts s
Cabinet, Mr.. George Won Lengerke Meyer
We are convinced that MIR. Meyer is really
a great man. and that fame viii continue
to walk with him to the end Of his days.
il is probably superhuous to cite the
