Fruit Badly Injured.

In many instances. by a careful in
spectfon of the fruit and shade trees,
since the damage wrought by the re-
cent frost, it will be noticed that ma
ture Is proving its own panacea and
remedy and by the snow and dark
cloudy weather has revived. to GER
tain extent much of the foliage that
would have been irreparably damaged
had the sun shown and the weather
become suddenly warm. There is poor
consolation in the fact however, for
the owner of fruit trees, flower beds
and garden patches, for. as far as his
prospects of realizing much in that line
this season, the chances are knocked
galley west.

THE NAUGHTY RAINDROP

Once upon time, when the sun
had been shining for days and days
and there hadn't been even a tiny
shower for ever so long, the plants
and flowers were all drying up and
beginning to droop and die.
Then good old Mother Cloud up
in the sky felt sorry for the flow
ers and called the little raindrops
together and sent them down to
refresh the poor little blossoms.
All the raindrops were glad to
go ito the thirsty flowers except
one-a naughty raindrop, who
didn't want to go and was cross
about 1t. AS they started on their
way down from the sky she began
to scold.

WALL STREET CAN'T WIN

It's pretty good old constitution, after all.
just look at this proposed income tax amendment.
All the states in their legislatures are to vote
"yes' fno'' on the question of whether the con-
stitution shall be amended to permit the govern
ment to levy taxes on the incomes of the rich.
The vote is being taken slowly
New York, the home of millionaires, voted against
it. But the chances are that most states will vote
"yes.'
However, even if they do vote against it now,
Wall street can't win in the end.
There is provision that any state that votes
Eyes" can never change its vote.
But state that votes .no'' may change any time
it pleases and it's vote may be added to the list of
yeas
If the administration of a state is so bad that it
votes against the people in this matter, the people
have only to get another administration that will
vote right and then send word to the secretary of
state at Washington who has charge of the voting,
saying:
ssPut us in the yes column The men who voted
mo- for us have been cleared OUT
Wall street says this isn't fairs that if the 'noes'
can be changed it ought to be possible to change the
"yeses'' too
For once it won't do Wall street any good to buy
legislatures At least, if they buy any they'll have
to buy all of them at every election.
Which can't be done.

In case of my election to refuse

The fact of the case Is the re-
publican party has been BETRAYED
for private business and corrupt
purposes by representatives of the
railroads. the Guggenheims. the

it cannot continue to serve the

to repudiate this reactionary gang
