Danger Turks in Opportunities.

A very ancient story says: "a farmer
had a drove Of hogs which he assembled
for their meals by knocking on a fence
with sticks or stones. One day the
waiting herd detected the familiar
sound, and started off pell neil in the
direction from which it came. Before
they reached the place, however, to their
vast establishment they also heard it from
the other side and turned and ran pell
nell towards that. And so they ran
first in one direction and then in
another, until, when the farmer himself
came down and raped upon the fence,
they were so completely tuckered out by
chasing the elusive signals of red.headed
wood. peckers drilling trees for worms
that they had TIC strength to go and get
their food"
In this great American Republic OPP.
%portunities are practically inexhaustible,
1t is this fact that constitutes the graves,
peril that we have to meet. While we
are rushing after, or else are actually
employed in trying to utilize, some
golden opportunity, we hear a dozen
others, some silver, others brazen, knock
ing on the fence around our little field.
There lies your danger, friend! Can
you turn a deaf ear to them? Can you
settle down to till your farm while the
calls of the city streets are sounding in
your ear? Can you grit your teeth and
hang on to your job at the forge or the

Is the Farmers Wife a Slave.

What prosperity on the average farm
means to the III Of the country is
described by William Atherton Du Puy
in a startling article on "The useless
tragedy the farmers wife" which ap-
pears in the Delineator for June. Were
the six millions Of farmers wives in the
United States placed in a caldron, fused
into one homogeneous mass, enough of
it chopped out to make one woman--the
typical farm woman-and were she de-
picted to the people as she is, there
would be the greatest tragedy of Ameri-
can civilization, says Mr.. Du Puy.
There is a lot to be found out about
this woman, and it is vital to know Of
her. 1t is she who bears the brunt of
feeding the multitude for which the
farmer receives so much praise. 1t is
she who gives birth before her vitality Is
sapped, to the men who make history.
II is she who is martyred even in the
times of peace and plenty. 1t is a useless
martyrdon, for it is easily ~preventable,
and for this reason it is especially im.
portant that her condition and the cause
OF it should be known.
In the first place, you will be told that
it is all bosh about the unfavorable con-
ditions on the farm: that the farmers last
! year raised seven billions OF dollars
worth of produce and that thev have

DEMOCRATS DUG A DEEP PIT.
They Failed to Put Gov. HadIey in
1t, And are Themselves At The
Bottom Of It.


No writer in Missouri csn write
the blunt truth more ~forcefully than
VIM. Marion .Reedy, editor of the
St. Louis Mirror. Having been a
Democrat all his life, he knows what
to say when talking to his own breth-
.ren. In the last issue of his paper
he said:
'WnT THEy +IE Done TO HApLEY.
The Missouri Democratic Senate is
utterly damning the Missouri Demo-
cratic party in its insane determine
ton to prevent the enactment Of
measures for the relief of the state,
simply because they emanate from
a Republican governor, ,Hadley.
Democratic legislators it was who
.iostered the prohibition movement in
this state to punish St. Louis Brewers
for the city's going Republican.
Democrats at Jefferson City care not
what public or private interests they
,jeopardizc or cripple SO long as, in
doing so. they fake up a case against
the Republicans. They should re-
member the Biblical warning about
the digger Of a pit for another. Gov
crnor Hadlcy is right in everything
he recommends and in most of the
things he opposes. He is particular
" right in his recommendations as
70 taxation to meet needed revenues,
in his plea for the exaCtion of a
diuuor tax from social clubs, and he
is splcndidly right in his refusal to
,accede to practical surrender of state
sovereignty over the large cities
under statues that are designed so to
operate as to give the cities over to
the control OF combinations Of the
worst elements in both parties. Gov
ernor Hadley il, as nearly a Demo-
.crat as a Republican can be, the sort
of a Democratic Republican that
Lincoln was. The Legislative mem
bers OF : party calling itself Demo-
cratic are stullilying themselves in
aryine to obstruct him in his efforts
tor the ommo good. If they o
tinue in their course they will succeed
only in d~iscredi,ing Herbert S. Had
ley 10 the extent Of making him the
next Republican nominee for the
president of the United States.

Death Rather Than Army.

Paris.--A young peasant, named
Legave, living near Vannes, has just
committed suicide in unusual circum-
stances. He was notified that he
must present himself at st. Mihiel
barracks for his military services, but
the idea of serving in the army in
spired him with such terror that he
several times expressed his preference
for death.
Finally, his mother, fearing he
would not present himself, accom-
panied him to the station, and when
they arrived there the young man
threw himself under a train, by
which he should have travelled, and
was killed.

The budget now goes before the
house Of lords. If they reject It the
government will go to the people for
a vote of confidence, and in my opin-
ion they will be returned. The pres
ent government would pass by 300
votes in the house home rule bill
for Ireland, that the peers would
promptly veto It, Therefore they will
not waste time on a bill sure to be
killed, when there Is so much other
important legislation pending
But if the present government Is
