The Russians are adopting, with mod
ifications, our marine brigade idea. 1t
will be remembered that during the
war we put on the Western rivers a
brigade which did excellent service, and
which vas housed and transported on
steamboats,. We, had marine flying ar
tillery, marine cavalry and marine in
fantry. The Russians are applying the
idea TO railroads, and have what they
call bivouac cars. which are the camps
OF the troops. and can be readily run
on the railroads from one point to an
other. If an engine is not available
they are pulled by horses.

Now our phosphates have attracted
the attention of the conservationists,
and the Secretary Of the Interior, in
compliance with the Presidents order,
has Withdrawn from entry extensive
phosphate deposits in Utah, Idaho and
Wyoming. This tract contains about
1880 square miles. or the area of Mas
sachusetts, and is said to be the great
est known phosphate deposit in the
world. The action was based upon the
report Of the Geological Survey, which
has examined the land. 1t is proposed
to use the sulphurous acid gases which
are given off at Butte and Anaconda to
assist in working these deposits. These
gases are very destructive to vegeta-
tion, but they can be collected, con-
dsnsed and turned into sulphuric acid
for the manufacture of superphosphate

The editor of the Wadley( (Ga.) Star
comes to the defence of the GeOr-
gia mule. He says that there
have been whole lot of SIAN
ders written about him, but he is
an animal that will be kind to you for
20 years just for a good chance to kick
your head off at the end of that time.
One in good condition can kick mo-
lasses out of ginger cake, but the
story that Il Georgia mule kicked a
railroad train off the track is slander,
and intended to injure the fair name
of the State, and make invidious COM
parisons with Tom Watson and John
Temple Graves.

We are all very charitable, as is
shown by George Davis, 20 years old,
who has accumulated S150,000, which
he has invested in real estate. He made
his money by playing upon the sympa-
thies of the passers-by as he stood sell
ing shoestrings on the corner and an
Il am blind sign pinned On his coat.
He says that at times kind-hearted men
gave him as much as s5 for pair of

A man in ireland wanted to make
certain that his wife will be good after

He says that he will not attempt to die

The testimony Of such an eminently
practical man as Andrew Carnegie be-
fore the Ways and Means Committee
could not help giving out practical wis.,
dom. One of the most striking bits of
this kind was as to the way the Amer
leans have gotten ahead Of the rest of
the world in the manufacture of struc-
tural steel. A careful calculation Of
structural iron forms showed that as
they were then made they contained
about Is per cent of metal that con-
tributed nothing to the strength, but
added much to the weight. This was
a simple thing, but 1t did not seem to
have occurred to any one before ex-
cept some German engineers, who had
devised perfectly scientific form. This
was at once adopted, and then the Steel
Trust began making the best and cheap
est beams in the world, and so got
ahead Of their competitors.

Senator Gallinger is thought to have
a very sure thing for reelection from

any opposition to him. The people Of

House. and his solid conservatism and
unfailing good sense make him a re-
liable standby in all the important
questions that come before that body

Everyone seems to be waking up to
a recognition of the fact that the year
1909 promises to be the most prosper
Gus in our history. Everywhere the
farmers barns are full of the products
of the earth, and these command good
prices. The farmers want to sell, and
the railroads will have abundant work
In carrying the products to market and
in carrying back the things which the
farmers want in return for their crops
There will be lively demand for every
thing that the manufacturers produce,
and money cannot help becoming very
plentiful and in active circulation, and
with the farmers buying freely every
body else will do the same. and trade
will become more active than has been
known for years.

THE OHIO sENaTORsHIP.

The current report that Senator For
aker. Representative Burton and others
are in a combine with the slogan. ANY
thing to beat Taft" is not to be be-
lieved for a minute. These men are all
too good Republicans, all have too
much of the principles of the party at
heart, and they have all received too
many favors from the Republican Party
to now betray it in a matter of such
moment as a Senator from Ohio. If
elected MIR. Charles P. Taft will make
an excellent Senator and represent Ohio
as she should be. He is a man of ire
proachable character, of high public
spirit, familiar with public affairs, and
has the confidence and esteem of all
who know him. His standing in Gin
cinnati Is very high and the Republi-
cans there who are opposed to Foraker
are a unit in esteeming him the best
man for Foraker's successor. Senator
Foraker has brilliantly represented the
State for many years, and Ohioans are
deservedIy proud of him. We are con-
fident that he will bow to the will of
the party as it may be expressed in
the caucus. He is a thOroIy manly man,
and if he shall win in the caucus he
will expect all of his competitors to ac-
cept cheerfully and entirely the results
of the vote. He is too manly and too
devoted to Republican principles to do
otherwise should the vote go against
him. No one at present knows how
the caucus will decide, but its decision
should be final and unquestionable. The
man who bolts it will not have a pleas
ant time with the people of his State.

Well, the weather has got
down to business, after six days
of simply awful cold, windy
weather and all the fruit gone to
Guinea or some other warm
place. It was too bad, since ev-
erything gave such fine promise
OF a big crop. The storm set in
Thursday morning with rain and
a high wind, which increased to-
ward night into a gale that felled
many Windmills all over the
country, and continued every
day until Tuesday night, since
which time it has been quite de
cent. But Wednesday morning
found every promise of a fruit
crop gone, as the frost was very
heavy and damaging to every
thing but the hardy grains.
No oats were up and few if any
beets. A warm rain would now
fix matters and this is likely
soon to come.
