As to his remarks about the hon
eSty of public servants. fully agree
with him. The man who betrays his
trust rs a public servant is an enemy
to his community and state. From my
personal acquaintance with members
Of congress At Washington during my
service in the senate. | am fully of
the belief that the dishonest repre-
sentative is an exception instead of
the rule. | think | am safe in say
ing that the overwhelming majority
of congressman and senators at Wash
ington are patriotic men of high pur-
pose and conscientious in their en-
d"avor to serve the public honestly

Conditions Different.

Il largely agree with Senator La
Toilette in regard to the transporta-
ton question. | think that finaiIy
the physical valuation of the railroads
will become necessary in order that
we may determine what is or Is not
II reasonable rate, but there is d
ference between the railroad situation
in Montana and that in Wisconsin.
Wisconsin is an old state and the
railroad construction work has been
completed there. In Montana rail-
road construction Is not yet complete.
and i'm my judgment it would not lie
n wise thing tn stir up bitter rail-
road fight while construction work by
the railroads and the building of
branch and main lines is under way.
We need all the railroads built at
this time that is possible So as tn
bring about the development of the
state and Il heavy increase in our
population.

THE FARMERS INSTITUTE.

A great work has been done by the
farmers Institutes OF Oklahoma and
greater things remain to be accom-
pllshed.
There Is no end to the benefits thal
may accrue to the state from the intel
llgent promotion OF scientific agricul-
ture. Improved methods Of farming
improved methods in stock raising
viii vastly increase the products OF
Oklahoma farms, adding TO the wealth
of all classes in the state.
For the first time Grady county Is
TO have a great farmers institute, con-
Quoted under the auspices Of the state
board Of agriculture and by men Of
statewide repute as specialists in their
line. This great event viii take place
in Chickasha Feb. 1913. The program
is one of great interest and every
farmer in Grady county, who can pos
sibly spare the timei should make MS
arrangements TO attend.
BY a happy idea, the farmers in
stitute is to be combined with a coun-
ty educational meeting, the program
including an address by State Super
intendent Cameron and the discussion
Of a number of live school topics.
The people of Chickasha should be-
gin to make preparations at once for
the entertainment Of our farmer
friends. The city should show her
best brand Of hospitality and do every
thing possible to further the agricul-
tural progress of the county

JUST WEATHER.

And there is the man who has a
crouch at the weather
We feel sorry for him, that's all,
although we condemn his wickedness.
To rail at a gentle, tender, innocent,
helpless creature like the weather.!
The man who does It ought to be pros
ecuted under the Pure Food act.
Stop a minute you fellow, do you
know what you are kicking about?
You say you don't like the weather,
you wish there wasn't any such thing.
You are making fool Of yourself
and you ought to know II.
Just consider for a moment what a
fix we would be in without weather of
some sort.
Just imagine, If you can. a country
lacking in this everyday necessity,
weather.
Why, man, we couldn't any more get
along without weather than we could
without water; one is as essential to
hdman happiness as the other. You
ought to think about this before you
begin to kick up such a fuss.
There is nothing In the world more
useful than weather. Merely as sub
iect of conversation, It more than
iustifies its existence, to say nothing
of the variety of other practical pur.
poses to which 1t is adapted
The man who invented weather was
one of the greatest human benefactors
who ever lived All other inventions
pale into insignificance in complri-
son with this climax OF creative
genius. We are in favor of building
a monument to the invento Of
weather.
Hold on there a minute now, don't be
so fast; we were Iot speaking Of
good weather, bad weather or any
other kind, but just weather.
We admit that there are some va.
rieties of weather that ought to be
denatured, but just weather.
All pervasive, omni-present, beau
teous, benign weather-let us sing its
praises and be thankful that we al.
ways have an abundance of It.

Oklahoma wants more good citizens.
she wants an the good people Of the
earth to come here to share in the
bounteous feast that nature has spread
for them We are in favor OF throw
ling out every legitimate inducement
to strong, robust. honest, progressive
citizens TO come among us.
But We are not in favor OF bdling

Ing OF blind folks, now pending in the
Legislature, means.
It is true that the proposed law re-
qulres a blind person to become do.
mesticated by a seven years residence
in the state before he can draw ra-
tions from the public crib. but does
anybody suppose that seven years
would look very long to the hord Of
blind mendicants who are tramping
up and down the other forty-fiye states
of the Union? Great Scots, we'd have
all the blind ones in ..e country troop
ing into Oklahoma; they would be
thicker in our cities then fleas on a
dog.
Now, no doubt the author Of this
bill is a man Of humanitarian instincts.
He means we'll but he has the wrong
idea about the way to show his good
impulses. There arc more prac-
teal ways OF helping he blind than
4 by doing out largesses to them.
The best way to help any man is to
help him to help himself. That's the
fundamental principle of all real char
ity.
The Blind Their affliction is one
that should appeal in a peculiar man
ner to our sympathles. but a blind
man isn't necessarily a mendicant or
dependent Nine-tenths or more of
them by proper education can be
made self-supporting. The humanita-
rian gentleman who proposed this bill
is advised TO post himself on the work
which is being done by several insti-
tutions for the blind in the East and
especially by the Society for the I'm
provement of the Blind. which has its
headquarters in New York. When he
gets through with his investigation,
he will likely abandon his crude pen
sion idea, and introduce bill carry
ing a big appropriation for the equip
ment OF an institution for the blind in
Oklahoma that will make these un-
fortunates self-supporting citizens in
stead of plunging them into a more alb
ject state of dependence.
If you want to do something for
the blind, vote money to make ouf
school for this class the most com
plete and up-to-date in America.
