IBSEN'S PARADOX.
And the Intimate Relation of Science
TO Society.

And the Intimate Relation of Science
TO Society.
Ibsen, my great compatriot, has in
one of his works formulated the para
dox that the man is strongest who
stands most alone. There is certainly
some truth in this-nay, there is much
truth in it SO far as science is con-
cerned. The man who in the search
for truth goes his way independently
of other men and of other considera-
tons is certainly the man who is apt
to find the greatest and most valuable
truth. On the other hand, it is also
true that science more than most other
things in life depends on cooperation,
on the help of ones fellow beings, and
this becomes more and more true every
day. Many people are apt to forget
what science actually is and what they
owe to science, for il, is through sci
ence that modern society actually ex-
lists, and the development of society as
it is today would be impossible If SCI
ence were eliminated. Humanity is
growing; but, If science and the means
created by science are not growing, hui
mainly will have to look forward to a
very miserable future. Therefore the
nation that wishes to be cared for
must support science and those who
carry on scientific work. Science will
live her own life and has done so ever
since the days when Prometheus made
his fatal expedition to the gods and
stole the fire which is more or less
burning in every one of us and cannot
be extinguished. There is something
sublime in this everlasting fire of sci
ence. Generation after generation dis
appears The individual is nothing, but
always "watchful in the tower man
shall remain in sleepless contempla-

PeDole will wait with much il
terest to see where Senator Chap
man lines up on the pending
legislation.
1t is generally believed that
Senator Chapman will vote for a
2cent fare bill, and for a primary
law which does not include the
second choice or the secret ballot
provisions. He is known to be
opposed 10 those two provisions.
Senator Chapman will also favor
the maximum freight rate bill.
His position on the anti-pass law
is unknown, but he voted in favor
OF reporting the strict antl-pass
bill favprably from the committee.
This would indicate that he would
be for the bill when it comes up
in the senate.
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1907-02-22

There is not much show for
such law to pass either the sen.
ate or house at the present ses.
sion.
There is certainly trouble ahead
in the Senate this week for the
anti-railroad legislation which has
been proposed by the house.
There has been a definite plan
worked out by the so.calIed rail.
road crowd" to pass the maxi
mum freight rate bill for grain,
and either kill of fatally main the
anti-pass, primary, and 2-ceDt fare
bills.
One prominent and conservative
member of the senate said a few
days ago to a correspondent of
this paper; u have reason to
know that coalition, which has
almost the characteristics of an
oath. bound lodge has been formed
by certain senator's for the pur.
pose OF beating the primary. anti
pass and 2-cent fare bills. The
names of l6 senators who are in
this combination have been furn-
ished to me BY parties on the in
side. Thus the combination does
not include a majority of the SEN
a.ors, but there are enough 'rab
bits in the senate to fall in with
the combination, and help them
vote through their scheme. These
eighteen senator's are controlled
as absolutely by the railroads as
though they had been bought and
paid for"

THE DO|NGS
At Topeka.
Another Letter From the Capital City
Today.
some BILLS INTRODUCED.

Topeka. Feb. 19.-As a direct
result of the Larrabee -four mill
dispute with the Missouri Pacific
railway, which was fought out in
the Supreme court and won by
the Larrabee mills in an appeal
from Stafford county, Senator G..
L. Chapman has introduced a bill
which has for its object the CON-
plete suppression of the Western
Car Service ASSOCIATE on, which
association was at the bottom OF
the tire uble between the Larrabe G
mills and the railroads.
the object of the Western Car
Service association, it is claimed
by the railroads, iG to provide
rules for the prompt handling of
cars, so that traffic may not be
delayed, and that cars of each
road may be returned promptly
to that road.
Others assert, however. that
this association is merely a scheme
for manipulating a sort of car
trust" for the purpose of forcing
shippers to pay demurrage
charges and obey the arbitrary
rules which the railroads might
make. This seemed to be the OBJ
iect of the association in the
Larrabee case, when the Missouri
Pacific refused to place cars for
the milling company unless it
would pay certain demurrage
charges.
Senator Chapman's bill says il
part.
Every railroad corporation
doing business in the State OF
Kansas is hereby prohibited from
using OF employing a common,
agent, bureau, corporation or con.
Germ of two or more independent
railroad corporations, to transact
such business for it, or to make OF

Value As FEED.
Aearney County Farmer Has Tested
Sugar BeeiS on Stock.

The sugar beet has a value as a
stock food that makes it worth al.
most, if not equally. as much to
farmer for that purpose as for
marketing for its sugar value.
Some farmers have experimental
with the beet as a stock feed and
it as been found that it paid to
raise the crop for feeding pur-
poses.
j. H. Allen of Kearney county
has in the past two seasons tested
the value of the beets for feeding
hogs and other stock and he found
that when fed in moderation a ton
of beets would save $40 worth of
grain and the hogs did as we'll on
the new feed. Mr.. Allen has
great faith in the sugar beet's
value for cattle and horses and
thinks that with the aid of ma
chlnery for cutting. the cut and
dried beets will have commercial
value for feed a well as for their
sugar producing qualities. The
sleek stock of Finney and Kearny
counties give evidence of the food
value of the beet 5Walue as a feed.
In this connection, it m light he
noted that number of the far
merS are ayaiIing themselves of
the opportunity to use the beet
pulp which the company has sliced
for use as stock feed aud find it
quite valuable in feeding stool,

A few days ago, Senator Chap
man received from certain parties
in Great Bend, a most extraordin-
airy bill, with the request that the
bill be introduced.
SO one copy of the bill was
given TO Representative Chatter
for introduction in the house, and
the other copy was introduced in
the Senate. and no bill presented
at the present session of the legis-
lature has caused so much amaze
ment, or excited such widely
diversified comments.
The bill has become known at
the capital as the mulct BILL"
for the reason that it provides for
a county tax of 5000 a year, to be
known as the 'mulct" tax, on
every retail liquor dealer in the
state.
Is it a scheme to nuIlify prOhi-
bition9 The bill itself distinctly
provides that it is not. 1t says that
even after retail liquor dealer
has paid the ''mulct'' tax he is
not thereby relieved from prose
cution for violation of the prohi.
; bitOry laws. But then comes a
large, luminous and expressive
provided" and under the head
of provided" it is declared that
the prOhlbltory laws shall not ap-
Dly to any saloon keeper who
pays the mulct tax in any town
where a majority of the peorIe
sign a petition asking for saloons.
Then follows a long series of pro-
visions and conditions under
which saloons may be allowed to
operate. The saloon must not be
run within 300 feet of any church
school house or cemetery or half a
mile of a fair. 1t must not be
open on Sunday, election days or
legal holidays; 1t must close be-
tween 10 at night and 5 in the
morning; there. must be no win
