says a Washington correspondent,
''noticed the wonderful manifesto
ton of the mutual enmity existing
between the Administration and
the great trust interests that has
cropped out in the efforts to bring
thu big New York Traction Trust
to justice? Tarred all over with
the blacklist and stickiest trust
stick, we find Mr.. Oren Root. He
is manager on one of the branches
or tentacles of the traction devil
fish, out of the manipulation OF
which the people have been rob-
bed of so many millions. Oren
Root is a nephew of Secretary
Root. That looks like a pretty
close line between the octopus and
the White House. But wait a
minute, and see who's here: One
Douglas Robinson, one of the re-

HON. H. F. STAPLE has announce
ed his candidacy for the nominal
ton for Governor on the Demo-
cratic ticket. Mr.. Staple repre-
sented the people of Atchison
county in the last legislature and
made a most creditable record.
He is the only newspaper man in
the race SO far. In making his
announcement in his ~paper-the
Atchison County Mail-Mr. Staple
writes the platform upon which he
proposes to make his race. He
sets forth seventeen planks, am ong
them being an endorsement of the
principles of democracy as advo-
Gated by Jefferson, as we'll as the
endorsement of VIM. j. Bryan for
president. The enforcement of all
laws in the statutes, recommends
a new state constitution, and the
reduction of the tariff. He favors
home rule, and the election of all
officers, including the election of
postmasters, by the people. He
favors laws regulating all public
utilities. Mr.. Staple sets forth
several other wholesome reforms,
most all of which would receive
the cordial support of the Missouri
democracy.

oUTDoEs RAYS OF OLD SOL.

Sunlight, hitherto regarded as no
less essential to the existence of man
than the air he breaths, and as being
absolutely indispensable to plant life,
has found a rival in ordinary acety-
lene gas, SO writes William I. Walsh
in The Technical World Magazine.
True, the usurper cannot dissipato the
frigidity of the atmosphere, nor make
the world wag long without the bene-
ficent rays OF the great god of day.
but when the latter chooses to snlk,
vegetation need not pause in It's
growth, but under the cheering IN
tluence of acetylene rays, may wax
large and lusty. Professor John
Craig. of Cornell University, N. Y.
in a series of experiments extending
over long period of time, discover
ed that of artificial illuminants, none
is SO closely akin to sunshine as are
the rays of acetylene gas.
Go to a dollhouse; observe how the
myriad panes Of glass, are placed to
catch every scathing ray of sun,
light But Diary gloomy days come
and the plants anguish. The pro-
cess of forcing fruits or garden vege-
tables or flowers for the market at
once ceases. Sunlight, since there
is none, cannot be trapped, Dimin-
ishing profits stare the horticulturist
in the face. Then it is that arti-
fetal sunlight, generated by acetylene
comes to the rescue, and performs
it's function.

their transgressions. Oft repetitions of
any vice soon forms habit that can
not be easily broken: and evil habits as
well as customs dulls the eye of con-
science, weakens the power of just
discrimination, defeats justice and Of
ten destroys mercy. Therefore after a
time they not only lost faith in them
selves but also in their God, ard throw
ing their divine principles to the winds,
they hardened their conscience, and
mercilessly trod upon all who stood
betweenthem and their base ambitions.
This condition could not last always,
and was finally checked-not by the
wrath of an offended Deity. as many
would have you believe-or, more ac-
curateIy speaking, drowned in flood
of their own vile fears. After this del
uge, the few that were left began a
struggle toward righteousness, and
some so far recovered their spiritual
sight as to enable them to see more OF
less clearly, and these were termed
prophets. Then came One, who by his
