THE GENTLE VICE.

The department of agriculture re- ports a heavy decrease in production of tobacco since lS99-which is far from offset by larger imports of leaf.
 The reports for 1899, however, is by the census bureau; those for following years are merely department esti. mates and this circumstance modifies in an important way whatever grati- flying conclusions in respect to nation al indulgence in nicotine one might draw from the face of the returns.
 Tobacco consumers pay to the gov erument alone seventy-five millions a year and another seventy-five mil lions to domestic growers of the plant The total bill must be quite impos ing, That tobacco induces mildness, stimulates philosophy and promotes the humanities, We strive dutifully to believe, We remember how not ably those characteristics were devel, oped among it's original users.
 Jogues, the Jesuit missionary-to cite an instance in passing-fell into the hands of the Iriquois in l642. Some of his fingers they cut off with clam shells, others they burned off. No wonder the white man hastened to ac quire a habit which along with such amiable diversions as these, was pc, culiar to the Indians.
 Smoking is, no doubt, the gentlest and most innocent of vices. Embraced with pain and remorse, it afterward furnishes a constant exercise in the noble virtue of self restraint. Out of ten mature smokers, probably seven struggles with more hope than success

THE SHIP SUBSIDY STEAL.

That class of would.be bounty.colled tors who years have been promoting ship.subsidy schemes, possess. at least the virtue of persistency There is not a session of congress but that they are on deck in the hope of fin ally driving a peg that will commit the government to that policy which will tax the people for their enrich ment The disturbing feature of this persistent crusade is that with every new effort the crusaders come nearer victory. Consider this last rejection of ship,subsldy bill by the House of Representatives with a margin of onl three votes on the right side of the record. Such vote is an exceeding. Iy close call as against the iuaugura- ton of a graft that, once fairly es. tabushed. will become the most gigan tic with which the people of this country have ever been burdened.
 It is a queer fact that We should have to fight so desperately against what the great majority of the Amer icau people regard as an unmitigated evil: a scheme for public exploitation that is bald and without concealment; that cooly invites the lavish ex. peuditure of the public money for the favor of a special interest, for the en- richmeut of a mere handful of men. There is no doubt as to what the fate of any ship-subsidy measure would be if it were to be determined by the voice of the people. There is no popular consent to this sort of robbery. Aside from inspired sources there is no advocacy Of it. Yet, gradually. the subsidy men seem to be making their way toward ultimate triumph.
 The situation is one that demands serious thought The imminent dan  ger of evil iron. misrepresentation in congress confronts us as something that We must seek to avoid There should be more of heart,to.heart un- derstanding between constituencie and congressman. It looks very much as if We needed protection against congressional betrayal of a popular cause.-Portlaud Telegram.

It is rather depressing to be told that there were lO,S52 suicides in the United States last year, as against 6, s3O in 1900 and 5,4SO in 1890. While the population increased a little over 10 per cent, suicides increased 100 per cent. Business depression was the most general cause of these self inflicted deaths. Domestic infelicities and disappointment in love. supposed to be prolific causes of suicide, fig. ured in less than I5 per cent of the cases. With the return of business prosperity. giying the people a more hopeful environment. the proportion of suicides to population is expected to show marked decrease.-Dcuioit News.

L. c Henry of this state is again
in the limelight This time as the
PLAINTIFF in a suit filed in the United
States circuit court in Topeka, Kan,
against former United States Senator
J. r. Burton The suit involves
about $4,000. Henry claims that
ex-senator Burton was indebted to
him for half of an sS0,0 land deal
made in Texas during the month of
March 1t is alleged that Burton
jumped his agreement with his land
partner, Mr.. Henry, and refused,
failed and neglected to pay over, re-
port or state the amount due Henry
in the deal. II seems that in July,
1908, Theodore C. Henry and j. r.
Burton entered into a partnership
deal on land in Pecos county, Texas
The first deal consisted of $4,000
acres and was called the II d
Ranch On November 10, 1908, the
Rooney ranch, consisting of 2.400
acres. and adjoining the ~ d
Ranch. was taken over by the COM
pany, and, it is charged, afterwards
sold without consultation, by J. R.
Burton. The price paid for the land
was $4,000, and Henry claims in his
suit in the circuit court that he has
seen nothing of this money nor heard
of the titles, deeds and the like.

Not Afraid Of q Ghost.

In a village in England a man

o'clock at night and cried out that
there was a ghost in his back yard.
There were fourteen men in the
inn, and not one of them dared to
90 home with the man and investi-
gate. There was a person who
dared, however, and that was the
landlords daughter, a girl of four
teen. Sore Of the men followed
her at a distance, and she went into
the yard and up to the ghost, flap.
ping its arms about, and discovered
mans white shirt Tapping on the
clothesline in a strong breeze.

me all the time" That went on
for a month. Then the artist start,

it was finished, and the next day he

framed, to Wagner. Then came q
