Reports from the West that the II.
year locusts, which are due about this
time, have been seen in large swarms
in Oklahoma, are dlsquletlng, but
should merely be taken as a warning
that eternal vigilance spells safety In
agriculture as in all other pursuits Of
life.
The greatest locust plaques Of his
tory were in Africa, Arabia and South.
ern Asia. The United States, however,
has had its own experience with the
pests. Among the more recent
plaques in this country were those In
1855 and 1874, the latter enduring
three years and causing widespread
ruin throughout the whole region be-
tween the Mississippi river and the
Rocky Mountains.
While the locust has been wiped out
pretty generally, It Is still likely to
become a local nuisance at any time.
This is evidence In the appearance OF
the pest in Oklahoma. The farmers
should not wait for the appearance OF
the locust, An ounce Of prevention Is
worth pound Of cure. The Depart
ment Of Agriculture, since the last
plague, has made an exhaustive study
| Of the subject, and all the information
In the possession OF the government is
at the disposal Of the farmers. BY
aggressive measures in each locality
where there is any sign Of the locustsii
the danger OF 9 plague can be avoided

Governor Hay, of Washington, is so
Ldisgusted with the work of the iegis-
Nature in his own State and the work
OF legislatures in general that he has

the result would be beneficial.
So, 1t would, doubtless, II the services
of thoroughly capable men could be
obtained for the State commissions;
but what reason is there to suppose
THAT, II the electorate returns incom-
petents, thieves and liars to iegisla'
lures It would not return incompetents,
thieves and liars to the State commits
sion?
The trouble with Governor Hay ana
all other menswho are crying for gov
Eernment by commission and other de-
Evices of the kind is that they do not
trust the electorate. They claim that
the people would elect the right sort
Eof men If the people would only get
out and vote and take some, interest
