Editorial Notes.
ByL d. Watson.

On Feb. rs, the Associated Press sent out
the following from Chicago:
"The Tribune today says:
One of the largest, if not the largest,
thefts from the United States treasury has
been unearthed in Chicago. Somewhere be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 was stolen from
the local sub-treasury last week.
Chief Wilkie, of the United States secret
service has been keeping informed by tele-
phone and telegraph of every development,
and, according to telegraphic advices, he will
leave Washington today to take personal
charge of the investigation

Hob the Volunteers Fight Fire.

Did you ever see new fire department in
a fourishing little city of about 1000 inhabi-
tants fight fire?
Well, if you haven't you have missed half of
your life. The sight beats Barnum and Bal
ley's show city block
To begin with it is volunteer company and
each member is gallant hero who has enlist
ed in the service to save his town from ashes.
He also saves himself from street taxes for
his gallantry
To begin at the first, your town issues
bonds for water works at a cost of several
thousand dollars. This of course you vote for,
which means an increase in your taxes. It
makes no difference if you live half mile
from the nearest place where the water mains
are likely to extend. No, it is all right with
you, for you must have water works at any
cost.
The water works are completed. The next
thing is the most important thing, and that
is organizing the fire department.
A call for patriots is sounded. They re-
spond gallantly. An organization is perfected
and officers elected. Perhaps one or two of
the officers may be too short-winded to run
more than few yards, but that makes no diff
ference. The boys are willing to do their du-
ty and after all they are the ones on whom
the great responsibility of saving life and
property rests. They are the heroes and to
them we must give the credit

Tn the April number of s'Watson's Teffer-
sonian Magazine" will be write-up of Hon.

on the lookout for the April number.
The great advantage which the Farmers
Union has over certain other industrial organ
izatons is that its high officials are not office
seekers and have never BEEN
1t is sufficient to these devoted men to keep
faith with the farmers and to make the Union
power for good throughout the country
Personally I am not acquainted with all
of these officials, but I know the Ma
tional President, the Georgia President and
several others Of the higher officers, and a
more devoted lot of men never knew
The Farmers Union is organized on sound
principles and it's purposes are nobly benef-
cent. How any farmer can afford to remain
outside of it, can not understand.
Unless, indeed he is afraid that the Union
might drag him into politics and cause him to
lose those five packages of garden seeds!
Under Our precious Protective System,
which gives Special Privileges to almost ev-
cry other class at the expense of the agricul-
tural class, the home of every farmer in the
land is taxed $45 per year by the National
Government.
By organizing and cooperating the farmer
could put an end to this annual robbery.
But organization and the work of coopera-
tion costs something.
Therefore the Farmers Union will have to
charge each farmers home about one dollar
per year dues.
"Too muchY' cries Brother Skinfint. Cant
afford itY' exclaims Uncle Beeswax. So they
snuggle down contentedly Under burden of
$45 per year-knowing that it will grow hea-
vier every year-rather than join the Union
and fight for square deal.
Some men are built just that way. They
can't help it.
And that's one explanation of how things
have gotten into such bad shape. We have
too many slack wads: too many easy-going-
good-for-nothings who would lie down and be
run over rather than to stand up like men and
fight

What fuss to make about so small a sum!
Why not charge little interest on the peo-
pies money which the National Banks use
free of charge and let the poor devil go with
his paltry little $175,ooo or 100000? 1t would
be replaced quickly, with big enough sur
plus left to pay the increase in@wages of Con-
gressmen and Senators, or to help pay off
those in Washington who are digging the
canal across the Isthmus of Panama.
Chief Engineer Stevens, of the Panama
Canal Commission, has followed the example
of Chairman Shonts and quit his job. Fol
lowing this announcement comes one to the
effect that all bids for building the canal have
been rejected. Explanations are offered for
such action, but it is safe to say that there
is something wrong somewhere The tender
ing of SO many designations, and the rejection
of all bids, makes it look like something was
going on which the Administration wanted to
keep hidden.
The New York Herald states that Secretary
Shaw will become the head of the Carnegie
Trust Company when he retires from the Cab
met. He certainly ought to be with Trust
as he is much better fitted for place of that
kind than for Secretary of the Treasury
Reports from France state that James H.
Hyde, former owner of the Equitable Life In

horses and will make Paris his home No one
seems to be shedding tears over this report.
If Hyde would persuade some of his former
associates to follow his example, we could af
ford to reward him handsomely.

Raising Poultry.

No matter when you start in the
poultry business, remember that you
should always start with the best. II
you have not enough money to buy
many fowls buy only a pair and get
the best you can and remember fur
Their that next years produce may not
even be as good as those you start
with. 1t takes years Of experience to
master the art Of raising fine poultry.
and it is only after we have success
fully studied the problem we'll that we
can successfully mate our fowls year
after year and show a constant i'm
provement at the end of each season.
Begin in a small way and study every
point and avoid the mistakes that we
once made. Don't expect 500 worth
of poultry to bring you an income suf-
fcient for your family. No investment
will do that.-Farmer.
