The meanness of the short.measura
trick Is conspicuously exemplified In
the report that consumers In New
York city alone are annually cheated
out of 100000 quarts of milk for
which they pay-and. according to re-
cent evidence. pay exorbitantly-but
which they do not receive because the
bottles in which the milk is delivered
are under full size. The milk sold In
this manner goes for the most part to
poor persons and furnishes large pro-
portion of the sustenance of children.

already hard enouga and who have TO
pay heavily for every necessary Of lite.

WHAT 10 HAzlNcr

A bill has been framed In the senate
committe on military affairs prescrib-
ing regulations that shall govern the
dismissal Of West Point cadets for the
practice Of "haSing." and defining In
explicit language what Is meant BY the
term itself II seems that the diction-
ary definitions have not proved salts
factory either to the senate commit
tee or to the executive heads Of the
war department. and In lieu of salts
factory translation of the comprehen-
sive term It becomes necessary for the
law givers to frame one for them
selves. II is in many cases easier TO
offer an example than synonym, says
Philadelphia Ledger. Anyone knows
'.hazing" when he sees 1t, and every
thoughtful person deplores the brutal
disregard OF another's feelings that Is
involved in the reprehensible practice.
No definition would be complete that
failed TO take into consideration the
fact that mental anguish Is sometimes
much more painful than physical suf-
ferings. A man's-or boy's-mind
may be hazed not less effectually than
his body. In order to haze" success
fully II Is not necessary to use instru.
ments of torture. Some of the most
brutal instances of hazing on record
have been those In which the imagina-
tion Of the chosen victim has been In
geniously assailed by the soul.harrow-
ing dread of things that did not hap

II multiplication of industries may
be considered an indication OF re.
vived and continued prosperity. surely
the United States is supplying ample
testimony of that character. There
seems to be especial activity in tex.
tiles. The official statistics show that
within six months 136 textile mills
have been built, and since January 1,
1906. more than 1000 Of these works
have been constructed. A notable
feature is the development In the
south. and that section. especially the
Carolinas, where water power abounds,
Is in the lead. This is an excellent
and satisfactory showing. II is proof
that the south. which has the cotton
and many of the other materials for
manufacture. is learning the economic
value OF concentration of effort. When
the south works up large proportion
OF the cotton raised there instead of
sending the great bulk elsewhere to be
transformed into finished fabrics IL
will l. We made still greater economic
gain.

MEANS MUCH TO MONTANA
On Passage Of Senator carters Dlll Depend,
Future of Reclamation Work.

through the payment for water rights
and the funds can be used to begin work
IN other districts. II the bill is defeated.
the work on the various projects must
go along very slowly-lag. in fact, to
such an extent that It may become a
national scandal and result in the aban-
donment OF government reclamation.
such thing iu the eyes of many of
the Vests most substantial citizens
would cause untold hardship to many
settlers and retard western development.
Senator Carter introduced his meas
ure IN the Senate only after a most thor
ough investigation covering two months
OF last summer, of all Of the government
projects. 1t met with bitter opposition
at first. but finally because of the clear
exposition of the facts surrounding con-
ditions on the projects, offered by Sem
ator Carter, the Senate passed the bill
unanimously.
1t is different story in the House. A
great deal of opposition has developed
there and threatens to defeat it. The
bill can only be saved by a general de-
pland throughout the West for its pas
sage. Already many letters are pouring
in on senators and congressman and
some delegations have visited Washing
ton to plead for the measure. More let
tiers and more delegations are expected
to follow.
The passage of this bill means great
deal to Montana. as the large irrigation
projects on which some work has been
done can then be pushed to completion
within a short time.
The measure does not in any way in
crease the indebtedness Of the nation.
Il provides simply that the Secretary of
the Treasury shall be empowered to is
sue certificates, paying a small rate of
interest. which shall be paid within five
years out Of the public land funds. The
public land funds are now devoted to
building irrigation projects and the bill
offers legal means of advancing money
needed at this time on the projects and
which would ultimately be used.
