Much bottom land has been under water for three weeks and the loss in that vii cinity on potatoes alone is estimated at S50,000. The Eastern mar.- ts are all unsettled, and local growers have concluded to wait until the ground dries out before beginning to dig It is not believed that more than TOO cars will be shipped this season.

Of justice should be allowed to sink deep into our
understanding, for it shows what a losing game one
encounters when trifng with the law. There are
many who will read of their downfall in the daily
press and attach significance to the event. but to
those whose lncinations to make "a piece Of easy

notice. They, too, might meet the same fate at no
distant date
Experience is costly teacher. Mans obstinacy

ninety nine have failed in making success at dis
honesty he thinks he is the fortunate one to do the
turn without being caught. He soon realizes that
he has bundered-that it does not pay. We are all
endowed with reasoning faculties and are old enough
to arrive at logical conclusions If this subject was
reasoned out it is ten chances to that we could
convince ourselves that the price pay for our mis-
directed energies is too high.

In MONTANA they have some very peculiar laws
in fact almost every state in the union is thus af
ficted This particular law forbids non.members
OF lodges wearing the insignia of the order. The
Jaw has been in existence for half decade, aud a
man in that state has just been arrested for wearing
one OF these pins. If the man had been using the
pin for the purpose of bringing disgrace the lodge
perhaps there would be grounds for complaint;
but whore it is used simply an ornament it would
seem that the justification does not warrant arrest
and criminal action
The constitution specifically states that every
man is entitled to life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness. There many laws being placed on
the statute books that these rights often nfrnged
upon. In FACT this law may have been necessary to
protect the standing of secret societies STILL is
SO seldom enforced that it is considered obsolete.
Furthermore few officers of the law have the courage
to arrest for trivial ofense. If this law
was carried to the state supreme court it would very
likely be declared unconstitutional If the pins can
be purchased in the open Market the same as any
other trinket what right has anyone to punish an.
other for wearing it?
