hay, $665OOO,OOo; oats, $4OO,OOO,OOO; potatoes,
$212,000,000, and tobacco $100,0O0,00O The in
in valuation this year the crops of last
year. by which the relative prosperity of the farm
of the country is measured, is 1869 100000, or
about 81 for each inhabitant of the country.
Secretary Wilson makes a comparison of the
farm production of the country during the past
eleven years, and shows that the great American
farm in this period has produced no less than sew
enty billion dollars worth for foodstuffs for the
human race and the animals of the world. At the
beginning of this period the valuation of the farm
products was somewhat less than four and half
billions, and it has almost doubled.
No wonder the nation has been prosperous.
Seventy billions of dollars poured into the Golfers
of the farmers of the nation has lifted mortgages
from the farms, has built better houses for the
farmer and his family to live in. has given the
farmer machinery with which to more successfully
till the SOIL has fed the overcrowded cities by slim
ulatlng the demand for the products of the facto-
ries and the mines. 1t has founded towns and es-
tabllshed banks and furnished business for the rail
roads! 1t is the basis of the nations prosperity
May the prosperity of the farmer never grow less!

OH, PSHAW!

George Barnyard Pshaw the egotistical play
wright of London, in declining an invitation to
! spend Christmas week in New York as the guest
OF Charles Frohman gave out an interview which
IS so entirely in keeping with the playwrights in
temperance of language, that it is almost as ridcu
lous as Pshaw himself Here is some of the things
Pshaw said:
''Why should anyone who is in London go to
America! You understand anyone in America
coming to London. As it Is [ am in the right
place Americans are in the wrong place AT least
they seem to think so. Why should [ move? The
Americans may be mistaken. [ notice they never
know anything about their own country They are
always astounded if you tell them what is going on
there"
We don't know why anyone who is in London
should not come to America and it would be
safe bet that 100 Londoners can be found in Amer
lea for each snobby American that can be rustled
IN dear old Lunnen. Besides, we should have
few Londoners come to America to teach us some
thing of our own country. 1t seems that George
Barnyard has found that the Americans in his be-
logged city are in the dark as to what is going on
over here. "For instance" he says in order to
show how much he knows about America the Amer
leans he has met in London "are ignorant of the
fact that liberty does not exist there / could he
arrested the moment [ landed on the charge of in
citing the women of America to immortality by good
looks. l could be imprisoned for suggesting reform
OF the marriage laws, for questioning the story
about Elisha and the bears
Il do not want to see the Statue of Liberty in
New York harbor Even my appetite for irony
does not go as far that There is another good
reason why | should not go to America. IF [ do
everything else will stop. The people will cease to
be interested in politics, commerce. art or anything
else. Nicaragua may shoot all the Americans it
likes. Then the shots will not be heard in the din
of silly talk about Bernard Shaw
II should be public nuisance, an interruption
a ramrod stuck into the national machinery For
Americas sake I'll spare her by staying at home.D
Oh, Pshaw! Handsome Mr.. Pshaw How can
we thank you for staying away, so our American
women will not be carried away by your good looks
How grateful should we be that you will not come
and by your very presence stop the onward sweep!
Oh, you Mr. Pshaw

people They are necessary for the protection OF
the unwary and the inexperienced.
The laws for the protection of the toiler are
generally satisfactory the worker holds first lien on
anything possessed by the debtor. But for the
butcher and the grocer there is but solution OF
the difficulties with the deadbeat. He must be CIV
en- no credit And it may be said that, while credit
is an excellent thing tc have, the extension OF credit
in most cases is inherently wrong. In most cases 1t
would be much better for the debtor and creditor
alike and to the world if the credit system were
abolished When works to pay for something
he has already enjoyed he misses the inspiration
which comes to those who work for some pleasure
entirely prospective The dead-beat is an object to
be Stunned, and so is the system which makes his
operations successful.

THEY WHO KNOW.

1T you lived nelghbor to whom you knew
to be thief, whose expeditions into the night
brought him profits at the point of gun you would
likely report your knowledge or at least your sus-
p1c1ons, to the police department. You would thus
be doing your duty to yourself and your fellow men
who were earning an honest living 1t would
seem, however, that in the matter of knowledge of
frauds connected with the government the ethics
are different. When the revelations as to under
weights and undervaluations involving the customs
service were made, there were a great MANY col
lectors, appraisers weighers importers and others
who volunteered the information that thew knew
OF the frauds. Even former Secretary Shaw is all
legged to have made estimate which showed that
during the time he the head of the customs SER
vice the government lost $10OOOO0O0 year from
undervaluations and underweights.
If these reports, which were given currencv bv
the press dispatches, are to be given credit the
conclusion is inevitable that these "men who knew
either only suspected the Irregularities of which
they now profess TO have had knowledge, that thew
countenanced the corrupt practices. or if tb.v ro
ported their suspicious, were codly told to mind
their own business The most charitable view to
take of these "men who knew" is that thew only
suspected and had no proof
A nice question in ethics is opened by the pro-
LESSONS of knowledge by these men, What Is
mans duty when he has knowledge of wronpdo;no
among his fellows! If clerk rings up the wrong
price on the cash register or fellow workrna1
charges up time against his employer to which be
IS not entitled deliberately Skills time and tb,s
defrauds his empoyer-what is the duty of the MOI,
who knows these things? There can be brt ono
answer to that question: He should attempt TO cor
rect the wrongs. Yet there are no doubt many WIZ
see such things going on who will content Them
selves with the reflection that the thief will eron+
ually hang himself and let it go at that The thief
may be favorite of the employer. in which ooso
the one reporting the Irregularities would probably
lose ms JOB OF be subjected to the contumey of his
fellows He might be called @quillers or axnocl-.
e. by saying nothing he maintains his standing
with the thief-a sort of friendship exists-tbouo5
IN ms heart he may despise the guilty one
1t IS nice question of ethics which we wonld
submit to the reverend clergy for disouisition

TO MEMORY DEAR.

In obliging reader of The Intermountain Cath
Ole by inserting the touching little ballad he asks
for, we regret we cannot tell him the name Of the
author. "Though Lost to Sight, to Mem'ry Dear
was attributed to Ruthven Jenkyns, and according
to n. P. Willis, was published in the Greenwich
Magazine for Marines in 1701. Bartlett, in his
Dictionary of Authors, refers to if. but does not
give the song in his book. He says it was pub
hshed in London in 1880, purporting to have been
written by Ruthven Jenkyns in 1903. 1t is said to
have been published in the Magazine for Marines.
But such magazine, however, ever existed and
the composer of the music (not the song) acknowl-
edged in a private letter to have copied the song
from American newspaper. There is no author
ity for the origin of this song. Here is the only
version of it known to US:
THOUGH LOST TO SIGHT, TO MEMRY
DEAR
Sweetheart, goodbye! the futtering sail
Is spread to watt me far from thee,
And soon before the fav'ring gale
Ny ship shall bound upon the sea.
Perchance, all desolate and forlorn.
These eyes shall miss thee many year,
But unforgotten every charm,
Though lost to sight, to memry dear.
Sweetheart. goodbye! one last embrace!
Oh, cruel Fate true souls to sever!
Yet IN the hearts most sacred place
Thou, thou alone, shall dwell forever!
And still shall recollection trace
In Fancy's mirror, ever near
Each smile, each tear, that form, that face,
Though lost to sight, to mem'ry dear

ANOTHER PLAN.

The National Municipal league in convention
assembled at Cincinnati recently adopted a set Of
resolutions commencing plan sought to be intro
dueed in Washington to have appropriations
for the expenses of the different departments of
the city government made on estimates furnished
by the city auditor. The league recognizes some
of the weaknesses of the present system in most
American cities, and hopes to remedy Of
them, apparently, without making a complete
change in the system as have Galveston, Houston
and Des Moines. While the league is not, to
knowledge, on record for or against the new plans
which have been reported to work with success and
economy in the cities which have tried the COM
mission system, it's resolutions declare that the
league recommends the preparation of annual
budgets which shall set forth in detail all pro-
posed expenditures and expected revenues and the
amount that must be realized from loans to meet,
with the expected revenue, the estimated expend
lures
In the interest of uniform city accounts. by
which comparison of results may be made from
census reports, it recommends that in the prepa-
ration of budgets all statements of revenue shall
be given under common heads applicable to all
cities, and that all statements of proposed ex-
penditures shall separate those for expenses from
those of permanent Improvements and other out
lays, and that both expenses and OUTLAWS shall be
classified and presented under heads correspond
ing to those which have been hitherto recon-
mended by the National Municipal league for use
in the preparation of uniform municipal reports.
1t is impossible, of course, to say just what
good would be accomplished by the adoption Of
this reform but it is an encouraging sign that
some day there will be evolved an ideal system Of
city government and city financial methods. The
efforts that are making toward improvement are
constant incentive to optimism in viewing the
municipal absurdities which are perpetrated on
the American people under the name of govern
ment."

1t is now generally known that the two lay fig
ures for William Watson's poem, "The Woman
With the Serpents Tongue" are the wife of the
English Premier, Herbert Asquith and Violet. his
daughter. By reason of Mr.. Asquith's standing as
leader of the House of Commons, and on account
of the political situation, the Liberal newspapers
of Great Britain are disposed to condemn Mr..
Watson to the fires of Gehenna.

TONGUE.
(By William Watson.)

Wy w w oeSCA''I
She is not old. she is not young,
The woman with the serpent's tongue,
The haggard cheek, the hungering eye,
The poisoned words that wildly fly;
The famished face, the fevered hand,
Who sights the worthiest in the land,
Sneers at the just contemns the brave,
And blackens goodness in its grave.
In truthful numbers be she sung,
The woman with the serpent's tongue,
Concerning whom fame hints at things
Told but in shrugs and whisperings.
Ambitious from her natal hour.
And scheming all her life for power,
With little left of seemly pride,
With venomed fangs she cannot hide;
Who makes love to you today,
Tomorrow gives her guest away,
Burnt up within by that strange soul
She cannot slake, or yet control.
Malignant-lipp'd, unkind, unsweet,
Past all example, indiscreet,
Hectic and always overstrung-
The woman with the serpent's tongue.
To think that such as she can mar
Names that among the modest are;
That hands like hers can touch the springs
That move who knows what men and things
That on her will their fates have hung,
The woman with the serpent's tongue
