The several, specific ways
OF bouncing sassy cooks.

Disaster to the Fruit Crop.

Reports from scores of fruit, berry and vegetable growers throughout the West indicate that very serious damage was done to the crops dur ing the past week. While it IS the tendency to overestimate the dam age sustained by crops on account of unfavorable weather conditions the reports from growers indicate that the crops were materially cur tailed. Possibly after couple of weeks of warm weather it may turn out that there is more fruit left than indicated. It is to be hoped that the disaster is not as complete as it appears just now. w.---kansas City Packer.

! The Corporation and the Man.

Have you ever considered the diff ference between the corporation and the man? God made the man man made the corporation; God put man here to carry out a divine de- cree, and man made the corpora ton to make money. That is the difference between the purposes for which the two parties were created. When God made man, he did not make the tallest man much taller than the shortest man; when God made man, he did not make the strongest man much stronger than the weakest man, but when we make this corporation, we sometimes make them one hundred thousand times as strong as God made man. When God made man he put limit to his existance, so if he was a bad man he could not be bad long, but they want to make the life of the corporation perpetual. Then this man-made giant has started in to compete with the God-made man, and the result is that this conflict has forced upon the nation great issues, where on the one side is the defenseless human being, and on the other side, the great soulless corpor- ation with it's unlimited funds at hand to carry out it's desires; the result has been that they have cor rupted our politics and they have trespassed upon the rights of the common people, while those who have been secure in the privileges wrested from the legislatures, have builded their fortunes to larger amount than has ever been known before in the history of the world. w. J. Bryan.

like the laws that are already in effect in many of the states of the Union. When properly enforced they are found of untold value in preventing young children growing up in ignorance of the first princi- pies of education, in doing away with many of the evils of child labor, and perhaps most important, by forcing boys and girls to employ their time in gaining an education instead of being truants, roaming the streets of the cities at will, ac- quiring vicious habits and perhaps in the end becoming outright crimi- naIs to prey upon and be a curse to society.
 Mr. Hamilton's bill is good one, and the state will profit greatly if 1t becomes law and is enforced.

REPEAL BAD LAWS INSTEAD
 OF IGNORING THEM.

Fort Smith, her citizens and espe- cially her papers, are having mighty bad dreams these days over the en- forcement of the laws of the state relating to the Sabbath.
 The Times of that city says that the enforcement of the Sunday law carried to the extreme of the let ter brings the law into ridicule. as its absurdity is shown and realized, " and that mistaken zeal has car ried the community beyond the line to which it was willing to accord respect for a law everywhere recog- nized as unsuited to modern city life. '
 There is no doubt but these old Puritanical blue laws are both re- diculous and absurd under eondi- tions that exist today, but it is seriously questioned if it is ..mis- taken zeal" to enforce all laws upon the statute books. to the end that the bad and antiquated ones be re- pealed. and all laws respected.
 And this brings to mind an apt sentence printed recently that a model legislature would be one that would repeal more laws than it enaeta1 v
