FREAKS OF RAZORS.;

The finest grades of razors are so
delicate that even the famous Damas-
Gus sword blades canont equal them
in texture. It Is, not generally known
that the grain of, a Swedish razor is
so sensitive that it's general direction
is changed after short service. When
you buy a fine razor the grains run
from the upper end to the outer point
in diagonal direction toward the
handle. Constant stropping will twist
the steel until the grain appears to be
straight up and down. Subsequent use
will drag the grain outward from the
edge, so that after steady use for
several months the fiber Of the steel
occupies position exactly the reverse
of that which it did on the day Of
purchase. The process also affects
the temper of the blade, and when
the grain sets from the lower outer
points toward the back you have a
razor which canont be kept in condi-
ton even by the most conscientious
barber But here's another curious
freak that will take place in the same
tool: If you leave the razor alone
for a. month or: two and take it up,
you will find that the grain has as
sumed, it's first, position. The opera
ton can be repeated until the steel
is worn through to the back.-Strand

The supreme court of Montant re-
Gently handed down a decision dis
solving an injunction issued by the
district court of Yellowstone county
restraining the Montana Federation Of
Labor and others from interfering
with the business Of Wholesale fruit
firm in Helena.
The opinion of the supreme court
was unanimous and is regarded by
labor leaders as notable victory,
which, they declare, will mark the
end of anti-boycott injunctions in
Montana as far as the state courts
are concerned.
The Federation of Labor had spread
broadcast a circular declaring the
fruit firm unfair and urging all un-
ion labor sympathyzers to withhold
their patronage.
The district court OF Yellowstone
county enjoined TIE federation from
interfering with the business Of the
firm, and an appeal was taken to the
supreme court.
The supreme court holds that the
injunction could not be justified by
any possible state of facts and that it
is not unlawful for labor unions to
withdraw their patronage from the
firm, as it had no property right in

Benefits Of Unionism.
Il desire to say, upon the evidence
written in every line Of remedial legis-
lation, that union labor has been the
gretat instrumentality of reform. I
not remember in all my experience,
which has covered such legislation IN
several states, that manufacturers
associations or associations of employ
ers in any industry Of general reform
organizations have been prominent in
their demands for the application Of
remedies. 1t has always been the
labor uions that have knocked at the
doors Of legislative halls. They have
1mperat1vely demanded recognition:
they have abolished to a great extent
child labor; they have protected the
employees in every industry against in
justice and brutality. and have almost
transformed labor conditions through

the improvements in methods of
cultivation which have originated in
experiments by the government the
farmer is less dependent than for

REPUBLICAN AID TO FARMERS.

why dOsen't the Republican
party do something for the farmers?"
asks Mr.. Bryan. This belongs to the
same category as his other fool query
Shall the people rule?" Somebody
ought To tell Bryan about the home
stead act. which the Republican party
put on the statute book just as soon
as it gained power in the govern
ment, and which the Democratic
party had defeated while it held sway
That act passed forty-five years ago,
did more than any other single factor
toward peopling the west. It con-
tributed hundreds of thousands of
settlers to Bryan's own state.
If Bryan calls this ancient his
tory" some things will be cited here
which are not ancient. There are
sixty-six agricultural colleges in the
country This originated in an act
passed by the Republican congress in
Lincolns day. but the principal gain
in the number was made in the past
few years. There are agricultural ex-
pertinent stations in many of the
states, which are an outgrowth OF
this Republican legislation. In 1907
President Roosevelt signed the ma
tonal irrigation act. which had beer
passed by Republican congress
which is effective throughout IN,
whole arid region of the country, an(
which has already created homes FOL
thousands Of persons
Did MIR. Bryan ever hear Of tb'
rual free delivery Of mail? If not
somebody ought TO tell him about
this AT once. His own state OF Ne
braska has a good many miles ol
these free delivery routes which
have brought the farmer into close
communication with the world This
is also Republican work, and every
/ intelligent farmer in the country
knows about il. Through the de-
partment of agriculture the govern
