Timely Susqetions.

Our enterprising namrsake at Ru'-
land makes these timely and pertinent
suggestions. They are worth consider
ing
1t is none too early TO consider the
question of making certain public qnes-
tons direct issue in the towns OF the
State.
The thrice buried spectre of taxation
reform will not down and must be met
and grapped with. The t. WINS OF the
State should instruct their representa-
tives definitely as to how they must vote
OH this question.
The normal school question is pre-
eminent and will certainly be up again
for solution.
Trunk-line highways, aud possibly a
complete overturn of the town system
of highway repair and construction, are
certain to come up for discussion.
The direct primary, one of the things,
above all others, that would cure the
State of its biennial overdose of politics,
will not lie buried, neither will the stead
lily increasing expense of doing the
States business.
The assured stability of the local op-
ton law, with some needed repeal OF
fool amendments, the dlsinfectiou OF the
"salary grab" scandal by making the
payment of Legislators compulsory IN a
lump sum, and certain constitutional
amendments that are reasonably press.
ing all comprise a program of more
than ordinary mprehensiveness.
1t is not too early to begin considering
them and dining up" the towns of the
State. Any topic mentioned is of in
comparably more inn ortance than the
mere detail of who shall be governor. Il
the people of the State once make
up their individual and collective minds
thereupon, any man of the ID mentioned
would be certain of an administration
triumph, provided, always, that h,
placed himself directly in touch will
real public sentiment, without regard tt
the tawdry politics or the selfish politi
clans that have inevitably surrounded
public men in late years.
The opportunity is great for men, off
cials and the State, but the way mus
first be prepared by the honest news
papers, of whom, the Herald is glad t.
believe, there are two score or more
we'll equipped for useful and construC
tive work.

prices for first quality hay are the high

Mexico as a Cattle Country.

Mexico Is fast becoming the great
cattle country OF the American CONT
nent, and southern Mexico is the ideal
cattle country of Mexico" said G. r
McDermott of NaCozari. who was in
Houston, Tex, recently. "As the farm
ers and sheepmen have forced the cat
tlemen Of the great southwest of the
United States TO move their ranges,
they are naturally seeking the most
favorable localities. and northern Mex
leo seems to appeal more forcibly to
them than any other section. Cattle
are being moved rapidly into Mexico
from the United States, and the cattle
men Of Mexico are now paying more
attention to their herds than formerly,
with the result that an excellent quail
ity Of beef Is being built up In the re.
