a Sportinu Judue.

After Baron Martin, who possessed
q great horror Of sporting prophets
had become partially deaf he was on
one occasion trying n racing case, an
exercise of his functions he revelcd in.
One of the counsel engaged in II was
named Stammers, solemn, formal.
sententious parsonage, who seldom
made n speech without quoting pas
sagcs from Scripture. In addressing
the jury he was about TO pursue his
old habit and got as far as "as the
prophet says" when the judge inter
posed:
Don't trouble the jury, Mr.. STAN
mers, about the prophets. There is not
one Of them who would not sell his IA
thcr sixpenny worth OF haifpence."
"But, my lord" said Stammers in n
subdued tone, II was about to quote
from the Prophet jeremiah"
Don't tell me-" replied the baron.
81 have no doubt your friend Mr.. Myer
is just as bad as the rest Of thcm."-

THREE DEADLY AGENTS.
Peculiar Properties of Spider,
Grain and a Vine.


What is the most terrible form I'm
which death comes? Here are three,
but which one of them is the worst II
Is hard 10 say:
In Peru and parts OF South Australia
there Is found Il small spider about
half as big as n pea. When this insect
digs its fangs into its victim 1t inserts
a poison which begins at once TO act.
1t scorches up the blood vessels and
spreads through the tissue, causing
most dreadful agony. The worst part
of II is that the victim usually suffers
for two days, but death IN the end Is
inevitable.
Another fearful death results from
eating "bhat." vegetable which
grows In the east, Of which few
grains cause violent mania. ending In
death "Bhat" occasionally grows IN
among the rice crop, from which II Is
hard TO distinguish until dry, when the
poisonous grain is OF a brick red color.
There is a South American vine call
ed the "knotter," which grips any liv
Ing thing coming in contact with II.
Its tentacles twine round the object
seized. soaring and burning the flesh
like redhot wires. Then the prey Is
drawn into the heart of the foliage
and there crushed to death. The meth
od is too horrible TO describe in detail.

gultless until it is proved that they not gutess
But for the purpose of argument, it may be held
that the acceptance of the improvements in lieu of
the trials provided for, would amount to condona-
ton of ofenses against the government by the COM
munity. Does the attorney from Wisconsin ap-
proach the community with such purpose in his
mind?
The north and south railroad, really the most val
liable acquisition that Boise could secure, has been
used before by the tempter to lure the community up
on the high mountain of observation Several of
politicians have made it asset in bidding for
influence and votes, Governor Goodng having been
the last to exploit the nducement and expecta-
ton still remains unrequited.
1t will therefore be seen by the attorney from Wis
consn that suspicion will attach to the railroad
proposition, although experience will not teach lack
of faith in the other propositions.
AS the attorney says his clients not to be
tried under the indictments, these suggestions and

under the ponderous presidential AK it had not kept
the tally that Mr. Ltteheld buetined at the Chicago
meeting.
One conviction year, with the federal authorities
perspirng at every pore suggests that some valuable
amendments could be attached to the law But that
would require the intervention of congress, in which
there are few men skilled in the intricacies that
able the Maine statesman to analyze the statute and
detect its weaknesses and those fully competent
not inclined devote their talents to the suppression
of their most valuable customers.
AS the administration of President Roosevelt draws
to a close his political adversaries will be making
up an inventory of the achievements of the official
trust buster and if they follow the line uncovered
by Congressman Littleied, they will ascertain that
the wrecks are few and the offenders still in solid
array, protected by an inadequate law designed for
their destruction
For failure that appears to be nearly complete, the
president is not to be blamed. AS Senator Lodge
proudly said in the Chicago convention, he has
forced the laws as he found them the statute
books" but he did not explain as explicitly Mr..
Littlee1d has explained the unfortunate condition in
which he found the important laws.
Mr.. Roosevelt may have avoided condemnation
of the Sherman act in the terms employed by Mr..
Littleheld while knowing that his action was hamp
cred to the point of futity, because the act the
creation OF the party that commissioned MIN 10 eX-
ecute it and he might not have cared to expose the
duplcity of political associates who placed such in
adequate tools in his hands
1t becomes evident that, if the reforms that Mr..
Roosevelt has exploited with great display of vigor
to be put into operation for the benefit of
mankind some radical legislative work must be done
in a unfriendly tribunal 1t is a condition that
will have be corrected in the congressional dis
tricts and among the people who delegate their
power to the legislative bodies that elect senator's

An Inefficient Law.

At the session of the Illinois Bar Association at
Chicago last week Congressman Littefeld, of
Maine addressed the disciples of Blackstone in crit
icism of the Sherman antitrust law, pointing out
that but convictions had been procured under
the law in years The slow progress of JUS
tce is surely represented in the enactment result
that others not of legal training had noticed
Mr.. Roosevelts administration has created great
commoton, with few achievements under the shelter
of the Sherman act, and while the public has been

By Order of the Church.

The mandate of the Mormon hierarchy to the
voters of the Mormon church has been pro-
mulgated through the official organ of the
church, the Deseret News. The mandate
reads:
THERE IS A QUIET BUT CERTAIN
FEELING AMONG THE MASSES THAT
TAFT IS THE MAN FOR THE COMING
FOUR YEARS. THAT 1T WOULD BE
BETTER FOR THE COUNTRY THAT HE
BE IN THE PRESIDENCY FOR THE
NEXT FOUR YEARS, RATHER THAN
ANY OTHER MAN, EVEN ROOSEVELT
HIMSELF
1t is therefore useless for any man of demo-
cratic persuasion, or pretended democratic
persuasion, to talk about gaining the Mormon
vote through soft words or tender treatment.
The statement made in the official organ of the
hierarchy is command to the members of the
Mormon church to vote for Mr.. Taft and is
we'll understood by them SUCH None of
them will venture to vote for the democratic
candidate, for the Mormon voter never dis
obeys orders

offerings may come entirely out of the good will

Mr.. French at Home.

Congressman French, returning to Moscow from
the scene of his official tolls and trumph considers
the ticket nominated at Chicago "a strong one from
every viewpoint one that will sweep the country
with another republican victory" 1t is reassuring
to his party Mr.. French's optimism, when other
members of the party enter the campaign with fore
bodings and scant hope.
What Mr.. French greatly fears from the success of
his party is revision of the tariff that will prove
disastrous to the lead mines of his state, but he
stands pat with the standpatters in behalf of pro-
tected lead
Mr.. French is especially pleased over his success
in securing an additional 100000 acres for irriga
ton under the Carey act in the state of Idaho He
explains that bill once encountered defeat but he
went the rescue and snatched it from the jaws of
destruction.
Mr. French is little late on the scene, the Idaho
senator's having appropriated credit for this million
acres and another million acres that fell into the
lap of Idaho during the late congressional session
