PUTTING BLAME
ON THE COMET.

Having watched with some care the
course of events with respect % the
coming Of Halley's comet. we are con
vinced that that particular fragment
of the universe will have much to ans
wer for in the next several weeks.
Already. he blame for certain man
ifestations is being imposed upon the
comet. For instance. Indiana folks
are complaining that they can't sleep
enough and they ascribe their somnif-
erous tendencies to the come. A dis
patch from Evanyille says:
Scores Of persons in this commune
ty complained that they were unable
to get enough sleep; in fact, in several
instances persons have slept fifteen
or twenty hours and stin were sleepy.
They attribute this inclina ion to
sleep TO Halley's comet.
If this sort of thing is TO continue
until May IS, when the comet viii
pass between the earth and the sun.
We can see all kinds of complications
ahead. The baseball season is now
opening, and it will be a fine thing
for the office boy if he can slip away
to the game and then tell the boss
that his absence was due to sleep
induced by the comet A grea. preva-
lence Of drowsiness can be expected
in other regions than Indiana.
No doubt. however, the comet VIII
be saddled with responsibility for
To- of other things besides making
persons sleepy. Possibly. its near APP
proach to earth is what is causing
the unwonted stew in politics, is max
ing the insurgent sentiment see;he
and boil, is making the enemies Of
Uncle Joe" rise up and smi e his
allowance for an automobile, and con
versely, is making Uncle Joe" AXE
the floor and rend his Democratic
and insurgent enemies.
There is no end Of food for thought
in this comet situation. The inter-
esting thing abou- it is that while it
seems to put some 10 sleep it appears
to fire others TO action. even 20 bat
tie. We shall await he coming Of
the comet with much curiosity in
view Of some OF the manifestations
it is thought to have caused up 10

INCREASING POTENCY
OF SHERMAN LAW.

OF SHERMAN LAW
The Boston News Bureau tells in a
striking manner how the long neg.
lected and sometimes despised sher-
man Asti-trust law has at last forced
recognition. no. only from the big
combines. but the hundreds OF small
er ones that transact business over
state lines:
The almost hSsterieaI price move
ment with which Wall stree, greeted
the reprieve in the antitrust cases.
and isnmdiately drew long conclusions
from the apparent division in judicial
sentiment. illustra es afresh two con
temparaneous conditions.
The first is the universal concern
of business over the significance ana
potency of the once-derided sherman
act. The second is the change in
modern character of the Supreme
Courts subject-matter
When the Oil and Tobacco prosecu-
lions we're begun. it is safe TO as
sert, ordinary business interests felt
that it was the predicament of just
the big fellows" In the intervening
months their eyes have been opened
TO all the wide possibilities of chaos
for big and little who cross state
lines: the imminence of the decisions
has spread over business like a mist
that Expresses the mind and vision
anS halts the step. Mondays re-
prieye is at least a passing rift in the
gloom.
1t is not only the corporations that
count capitalization by hundred
million units that need fear and trem-
Bile To cite a single instance, the
national organization of craft prac-
ticed in every community has this
year omitted publication of a long
used brown book" and red book"
One Of these gave all affailiated job
bers. the o-her all the $4,000 craft
members in the country, with star
for each within the fold; and where
the latter did two-third of the bust
ness in given territory. it was trade
custom for the jobbers to confine
favors Go such as carried the star
But these craftsmen, nearly all small
business fry. have come to know and
fear the Sherman law. and have not
only stopped publishing a while. but
have amended other usages.
The complete change in Supreme
Court cases marks an epoch in both
constitutional law and the economic
history of the United States Three
or four distinct periods stand forth in
he chronicles of the Supreme Court
First came the formative period,
when Marshall outlined the powers of
he young naion Then came the
period when its component mechan-
ism, the state structure, became the
subject OF political debate. judicial
decision. and ultimately of The arbi-
trament OF war.
The third stage naturally comes
with the great corporate evolution Of
enterprise in the pas decade and a
half; it also comedies with a new
tendency in government. to abandon
iaissez faire. to regulate and to con
serve. TO lay more direct taxes, and
to take up social propaganda.
This era was ushered in with a few
distinctive expositions of corporate
law. as in knight VS.. American Sugar.

River Bridge cases. II is likely that

dent of a century hence will ponder

bic in the digestive juices of the
domestic animals and when dissolv-
ed is taken into the blood, causing
paralysis of the brain, with the COM
mon symptom of ''bloat,"
"Sodium sulphate will make the
barium insoluble absolutely and
therefore it would be harmless in
the stomach of animals feeding on
loco hay so treated, if our expert
ment prove fair indication" Doc,
tor Sayre says.
WORKED ON 1T TWENTY YEARS.
Doctor Sayre started the investi-
cation of the loco weed twenty years
ago. He was the first chemist to
demonstrate that the poison in the
loco weed was not similar to opium
or larkspur. Fifteen years ago a
recognized chemist told him: "You
are wasting time" Doctor Sayre
went on experimenting and proved
that they were all wrong. He tried
to get appropriations to carry on
the study. But no one listened. The
farmers scoffed at the idea of maxi
ing the weed harmless.
Then it was that the government
chemist began to take notice and
their work confirmed Doctor Sayre, S
theory. The discovery of barium
proved his theory that the soil which
grew the plant was responsible.
Now Doctor Sayre is offering a pro-
liable method of neutralizing the
poison.
81 cannot state positively at this
time that sodium sulphate will abso-
lutely do the work." he says, "but
all the experiments are favorable.
1t will be a cheap way of making
a world of food products out of a
worse than useless weed if it stands
the test" - K. c. lines.

The "loco" weed is native of
thirteen states west of the Mississip-
pi River, and has caused the loss of
thousands of dollars to stock rails
ers in the death of stock poisoned
by grazing over the deadly weed.
There are two varieties, the "white
loco" and the cred loco" Both
are found in great quantities in the
western part of Kansas. 1t is no
uncommon sight to see hundreds of
acres in the semi arid regions COW
cred with the weed and practically
useless.
The food value of the plant has
been proven in the Kansas Univer-
slty laboratories by repeated analys-
is and if the poisonous property is
removed, it has been found to be as
good as alfalfa or white clover.
BITTER THAN WHITE CLOVER.
"It is very similar to alfalfa,
says Doctor Sayre, "and it com
pares very well with it but for the
poisonous prindiple. 1t contains
more proteid than alfalfa, and near
ly as much as white clover or bran,
and more nitrogen than either GLOW,

Cannon And the "The Boys"

Considering the temporary shift
in Washington, the spectacle of the
present carriers of that burden
straining under their load is anus
ing. 1t must be especially divert
ing to the progressives, whose cause
is marching on to triumph.
Cannon is the same egotistical,
stubborn boss in dealing with his
own forme5 supporters, now when
they would be glad to be rid of him,
that he was when he de6ed the plat
form of his party, the wishes and
recommendation of the President
and the will of the country, In the
tariff session.
The leaders of the party know
that his policy has put the party in
jeopardy; that many of his support
ers are doomed to defeat in the next
primaries or the next elections; that
the Democrats are counting conf
IDENTIFY on electing the next House
on the issue of Cannonism and the
tariff. Cannon knows these things,
too. They have been the subject OF
conferences; they have been the
basis of unmistakable limitations to
the speaker that he should retire, or,
at least, announce that he will not
be a candidate for reelection.
But Cannon will not retire under
ire-that is, he thus far has refused
so to retire. He cares no more foI
his party than he did for the peopl,
when they lifted their voices against
his rules, his dictation and his higl
protection policies.
But there is prospect that tn
speaker will be dumped withou
ceremony if he too long defers
voluntary and ceremoious addiction
1t so happens that many of his sup
porters are much more easily arous
ed over their own political fortune
than they are over the welfare of tn
Nation. And these MEMBERS
least, many of them-will tur
against Cannon rather than los
their seats by default.-K. C. Times
