There is a difference.

The district Court Of Okla
homa recently handed down a
decision in the case of a negro
who brought suit for damage
against a railroad for ejecting
him from a train for refusing to
comply with the "jim crow" law
of that State. The negro was
an interstate passenger and re-
fused to go into Jim crow car
after crossing the State line into
Oklahoma. The decision Of the
court was against the colored
man, and the Oklahoma officials
say the action of the court will
be of great aid in enforcing the
law. The decision means that
when Negro in transit reaches
Oklahoma he must conform to
the laws of the State.
Commenting on this decision,
the Western Christian Advocate
pertinently says:
Let US change the subject
and consider that it is a key Of
beer or barrel of whisky that is
being slipped across the country.
Suppose it should touch a State
that had instead of a Jim crow"
law, a 'no-beer' law. What then?
If any attempt should be made
to block the progress of said keg
or barrel, tempest Immediate
ly brews. There's a difference,
It's plain to see. In fact, it is
unconstitutional, so they declare,
to interfere with interstate ship
mentsl When it's a negro that
is the subject of interstate traffic,
the law operates. When it's a
barrel of booze it doesn't. You

How to tell old Age.

Girls of a manageable age do
not like to tell how old they are,
but you can find out by follow
ing the subjoined instructions,
the young lady doing the figur-
ing; Tell her to put down the
number of the month in which
she was born, then to multiply
it by 2, then to add 5, then to
multiply it by so, then to add
her age then to subtract 365,
then to add lis, then tell her to
tell you the amount she has left.
The two figures to the right will
tell her age and the remainder
the month of her birth. For ex-
ample if the amount is 822, she
is twenty two years old and
was born in the eight month

was buried.
Ledsome was an old soldier and

Agreed.

According to President Taft
the postal deficit was $17. 600, 900.
''This deficit says the presi-
dent, lis due to the insufficient
revenue from second class mat
ter and the expense of tbs rural
free delivery system.
''The president is correct, !"
says the railroad magnate who
receives from the government
800 per cent more per pound for
hauling the mails than he
charger for hauling express.
"The president is correct, :"
says the manager of the express
company, who draws a dividend
of 300 per cent on his stock, and
would draw more if the periodi-
cal postage rates were higher.
"The president is correct, "
says the government official
whose department sends millions
of pounds Of matter through the
mails free of charge.
So far as we have heard, how
ever, these are about the only

dents findings.

Raise the Price.

Many publishers have raised
their subscription rates from one
dollar to S1.50, beginning with
January 1. This raise has been
made necessary by the increased
cost of living, and there is no al
tentative left The publisher un-
less he is wiling to continue IS
suing a paper at bare cost or a
loss. The time has passed when
a paper can be profitably pub
lished for one dollar a year, and
the glory Of it is relegated far to
the rear when the monthly bills
are bought or sent in. A farmer
used to bring from four to six
bushels of corn to town to pay
for a years subscription to his
home paper at one dollar a year;
now he can bring a little mere
than two bushels and pay for a
year at $3.50. Ham that used to
cost the editor 10 and IL cents a
pound now costs 20 and 25 cents.
Not only that, the editors cost
of publishing has nearly doubled,
so that he is really four times
worse off in some respects than
formerly. These are the condi-
tons which have gradually added
to the newspaper mans burden
until it can no longer be borne
Would any sane farmer keep a
team working for one dollar a
day and throw in his work if it
cost one dollar to feed the team?
We hardly think so, unless times
were harder than they are now.
Every fair-minded rea d e
knows that these conditions have
been brought about through no
fault of the publishers, and will
concede him the right to a profit
on his labor the same as the mer-
chant on his goods or the farmer
on his crops.

Bryan on Law.

Resort to violence is always de-
plorable, and will, / think, be-
come less frequent as civiliza-
ton advances. AS man rises in
intelligence and morals reason
will move and more be substi-
tuted for force and violence in

day will come when the world
will see the folly of the doctrine
that you can justly settle a diff.
erence of opinion by shooting a
man who may differ with you.
There is a growing acceptance
of representative government,
and a fundamental doctrine of
representative government is ac-
quiescense in the will of the
majority. That was the doctrine
taught by Jefferson, the greatest
exponent of representative gov
eminent who ever lived, and it
is necessary to the existence of
all republics.

Not the Usual Romance.

Recently one of the most fas-
tidious young men in New Jersey
bought a pair of overalls and
found in them the name of the
sewing girl who made them. He
very promptly wrote her a letter
with all of the effusiveness nee
essary in such a case, and in due
time received a reply, which,
however, was void of the ro-
nance usually in such cases.
Here it is: Il am a working
girl, it is true, but | make good
living and do not care to support
a husband, as | would have to
do if l married some silly noodle
who gets mashed on a girl he
never saw. Permit me to say

fellow that can afford something

whether it was arranged mainly

The Floods in France.

Although France is one Of the
oldest of European countries, it
has never before experienced a
disaster like, in extent to what
has visited all the northern, east
ern and western sections within
the past week. Continuous rains
caused all the streams to over
flow their banks and to rush over
villages and farms, leaving
waste, destruction of property
and loss of life, in its wake.
This great aggregation, pouring
into the Seine river was more
than its capacity to carry off,
and immense damage resulted
along it's course. Water rose to
un-heard-of stages at Paris, doing
millions of dollars of damage to
property and rendering thous-
ands of people homeless. That
city is built largely over the cat
acombs which have been filled
with the overflow from the river
causing streets and sewers to
cave in and destroying founda-
tons of some of the public build
ings. Lighting plants have been
rendered useless and many parts
of the city left in darkness. The
loss of life can not be estimated.
The property loss is placed at
over 100000, 900. F arm S

Cattle Prospects Bright for 1910

Receipts of cattle fer 1909
were somewhat in excess of those
of 1908, but broader beef mark
ct has made a better trade.
There is much interest in the fu-
ture of the market now, but lit
tie knowledge as to- one of the
main factors in 1.-THE number
of cattle on feed. Says National
Stockman. From many points
come reports as a serious reduc-
ton in the feeding of cattle,
while very few sections admit
an increase. It is hard to credit
all reports of reduced feeding in
view Of the number of feeder
cattle that have gone from graz
ing sections and markets to feed
ing sections. Certainly many
people are feeding cattle or feed
would be cheaper. One thing
quite noticeable now is the trend
toward short feeding. Cattle
men of the corn belts asserts that
a large proportion of the stock
in feed lots will be marketed in
January and February and COM
paratively little fed for spring.
If they are correct, the man who
gets cattle ready for the spring
trade ought to hit it right.

sidered respecting schools and
good roads. Not one of the meas
ures cited would bring about Bit
terness, even though the views
on them should be of the widest
possible divergence and time is
an element to be considered in a
session limited to sixty legisla-
tive days.
The bill providing for the ap-
pointment of four bank examin-
ers may find some difficulty in
the settlement Of the question
whether they should be named
by the Governor or made a bu-
reau in the office of the Secreta-
ry of State. But the difficulty is
as nothing in comparison with
the ability which should be de-
manded of the appointees, coupled
with an integrity that would con-
vince the people of Kentucky,
and especially the savings bank
depositors, that the examinations
would be made with but one end
in view-the safety of the depos-
itors and the stockholders and
the destruction of one man bank.
The examinations should go not
only to the financial condition of
the institution examined, but to
the fact of directors who would
direct or to the absence of the
fact, with the act providing sui
table and appropriate penalties
for neglect of duty of officers or
directors.
1t is not probable that the
power Of appointment will be
vested in the Governor. 1t may
be the Legislature will name the
four. The important thing is in
the naming of the right men for
the place. There is no politics
in the question of safety of de-
positors, and the Legislature can
find four good men as readily as
the Governor, whether the four
are to constitute a new depart
ment of the state government or
bureau in the office of the Sec
rotary of State. -Owensboro Mes

For the Farmer.

Clover is a good orchard crop.
Cut out the old cane from the
raspberry bushes and burn.
Lambs need plenty of clean
cool water. See that they get it.
The fence corners often tell
what kind of farmer is running
the farm.
Well-bred and well-kept are
two important considerations
when considering a horse.
Treat the surplus runners on
the strawberry vines as weeds.
Don't forget to cultivate.
Good tillage not only increases
the available supply of food of
the soil, but it conserves the
moisture.
Look after the young trees you
set out this spring. Keep them
growing right. Care now will
prevent troubles later.
Pasture the COWS at night and
keep in the barn during the heat
of the day. Needless to say the
barn should be screened.
The profitable orchard must be
the well-kept orchard, for moth
ing is apt to prove profitable on
the farm if it is not properly
managed.
The garden is now yielding
its daily offering to the table and
how good things taste! My
aren't you glad you took the
time to get it started?

Almost impossible to overfeed.
However, do not waste the feed
by giving more than they will
eat up clean.
Sheep return more fertility to
the soil than any other animal,
and when you consider that they
distribute the fertilizer without
additional cost you can give the
sheen an extra credit mark.
