FOR A DIRECT ADVISORY VOTE

The agitation among the people of the country for simplified government for government by commission or short baIlot-and for advisory action with reference to presidential nomina- lions Is general and increasing.
 There are now ITO cities which have adopted the commission form of gov .rnment, in one style or another, and they seem to be increasing month by month.
 As the result of recent 1eg1slation in Texas there is now one more state that has made provision by law for the taking of a direct advisory vote to de- ter1nine the preference of party adher- ents among the men seeking nomina- tions for president and vice president North Dakota, Wisconsin, New Jer- sey, Oregon and Nebraska have similar laws
 Evidently seventh state is soon to be added to this list. The legislature of California Is now sitting in special session to consider the subject. A bill eInbodying the idea was passed by the lower house, the vote on it being Ts to Q. Undoubtedly the meas ure will be approved by the senate. The governor is leading advocate of the plan
 The Chicago News is of the opinion that Illinois ought to be the eighth state to fall into line. It's legislature, if called together in special session by Governor Deneen, should be asked, among other things, to enact law providing for direct vote at the . party primaries on candidates for president and vice president. Such a law Is needed to round out the direct primary legislation of Illinois,.
 Whether this method of instructing the national convention will become popular enough to win the support of a majority of the states remains to be seen: but it certainly is making re- markable headway.

THE BULLETINS DAILY STORY
UNREASONABLENESS OF MEN

bosom and nearly caved in his breast bone, and after that he went around offering to sell her at any price, My husband heard about it and night be- Crump's COW in MT. Toplofty's barn and vice versa.
 Yesterday morning Mir. Crump went out to milk at the usual time and seem ed as l-sppy as q sl>ylark. We could hear him singing as he went into the barn Then a couple of minutes later there was a crashing sound, as though q cyclone had broken loose and was ripping the roof off house. and we rushed out to see what we might see. Really, felt sorry for Mr. Crump. for that COW had kicked him on the nose, Ito knead 1t back into it's original shape.
 Tt was while we were standing there offering the condolences of the season that MT. Crump made the discovery that the cows had been changed, and the way he took on was something dis graceful. Several neighbors had to hold him, he was so anxious to get at my husband and I must say that MT. Cumback conducted himself with great dignity under such trying circum- stances.
 After he had soaked his nose in and the errand he went on shows how maievoient a man can be. My husband, as you know, is manager of the Get There Grocery company, and Mir. Crump went around among his friends and got them to sign paper agreeing not to buy a nickel's worth of goods at that store until my husband is deposed- So Mr. Cumback, I fear, may lose his job md Mir. Crumps nose is enough to scare a horse, and yet those men in sist that their wives haven't sense enough. to yOte.-Chicago News.

A TRUE CHRISTMAS STORY.

The human heart never appears to De quite as bad as We think or quite as good as we imagine The worst of men appear at times good hearted and the best fnfrequentiy show a blight of selfishness which is mex piatnabie. In other words, the per feet man has not yet been developed.
 The other day the warden of the Wisconsin state penitenttary was given ten-doiiar bill by a convict who asked that 1t be spent to provide the children of some poor family with a tree. the rest of the money to go to the purchase of presents and a Christ mas dinner.
 This noble deed from an unexpect ca source shows how the heart of man IS moved by pity, even when there seems to be no plying heart for him.
 No one can tell where or when the spark of heavenly kindness will illu- minate life. and whether it appears in mansion or a prison 1t cannot he furnished We recognize it's kinshin 10 the eternal goodness and the mercy of which man has ever proven to be incapable.

THE HAY CROP OF NEW ENC.
 LAND

A bulletin of the census bureau Ia sued upon hay and foragk djscloses that New England yields a valuable hay crop. and although there has been a decrease of 53.o0o acres in the lnnd devoted to the cultivation of hay the tonnage has increased ss,000 tons in ten years, and the value has jncrcased by nearly s16,ooo.ooo. aggregating s5e.- 112,000 VIZ
 There were reductions in acreage in all the New England states exce.,t Vermont, which has shown a sIirbt increase. but while the crops do uot show an increase in all of the state. Maine and Vermont led in the values the increases being in excess of so,ooo,0oo each. The figures for Mas ssehusetts were eIo,oOO acres under cultivation twelve years ago against 51s,ooo acres at the last census taking and while the tons produced da' creased from ss4s.s0o to ss1.ooo in values these rose from 3s.o5s. 900 to S1z. .2so. .00O-
 The acreage of New Hanpshtr> d.- creased from sI5.o0o to 52s. .oeo screa and the crop from 653,o ,o00 to 5se ooo toms. but the value increased from s5.5s5.eoo to s7.s4o.eoo.

poTAeH FROM THE SEA.

The use of kelp for fertiIizing fields alenH the Atlantic seaboard has been in practice for many years, but the actual value of it was not realized until recent analysis showed that 1t contained 49 per cent. of potash.
 The Pacific coast seaweeds are found to be richer. in potash than the seaweeds from the Atlantic, but both are of real value to agriculture. It is reported from California that prep arations are being made to gather and market the seaweed on large scale.
 The supply is said to be well nigh inexhaustfbde. as the coast is long and the kelp beds are of enormous extent. It is easy to see that if the kelp in dustry develops as is now confidently expected, it will add enormously to the wealth of the Pacific coast There has long been regret on the part of thinking people that ~the rivers should carry to the sea such large propor- ton of the fertility of the soil, and the apprehensions as to the eventual effect of the constant drain by the sewers of large cities has seemed to be we'll founded; but it appears that the sea is prepared to repay at least a portion of it's debt in the vast o,uan- titles of fish used as fertilizing ma terial and in the kelp thrown up by it's waves.

OPINIONS OF THE LAW.

rogue is supposed to never have a good opinion of the law; and there are laws which are not worthy of the good opinion of men, although drawn and enacted with good intent
 Judges in administering the law are frequently compelled to find judgment against a prisoner when they have no respect for the law and are in sympathy with the defendant This was illus trated the other day by a New York judge who reluctantly fined & man for sending boys on errands after school hours, in violation of the child labor law, saying a law that would forbid the employment of healthy children upon perfectly healthful work for an hour or two a day was not good law.
 The story is told of another judge of the Empire state, who thought an expression of his will by himself in everyday language and properly wit messed, was sufficient, but he omitted to say in the text that it was his Hast will and testament" and although it was plain who he waited to have his property, the judge ruled it was no will because it lacked thfs formality and his property went where he in tended it should not
 It is not strange men like Charles Macklfn define the law thus: The law is sort of hocus-pocus science, that smiles in yer face while it picks yer pocket; and the glorious uncer- tainty of 1t is of more use to the pro Tessors than the justice of 1t"

HOTEL REGISTERS ARE
 USED AS EVIDENCE.
Show Movements of Other Dynaniters
 Than Those Arrested.

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec 1s-Hotel registers showing the movements of those suspected of complicity in the dynamiting conspiracy other than the McNamaras and Ortie McManigal were taken before the federal grand jury to- day.
 Thomas J. Reftingon of Youngstown O., the first hotel man to be examined brought with him his hotel register and some account books which are said to show by whom certain bills were paid A bridge being erected by the Balti- more and Ohio railroad at Youngstown night of Oct. 50. 1907, Non-unio iror workers had been employed on the contract. This explosion was followed by numerous others in northern Ohio ali alleged to be depredations by the "dynamiting crew"
 McManigals and the McNamaras movements are well known and the hctel records are being brought from places in Ohio. Indiana, Illinois. from the east and from as far west a s Salt Lake City Utah, with a view of tracing others whose names have not yet been mentioned but upon whom, it is said. the government is keeping close watch
 Other persons examined today are Believed to know circumstances con nected with the stores of explosives which the dynamiters kept The stores were at Tiff1n, O., where In April. 1911, $40 pounds of dynamite were taken from a barn In the rsar of McManigaTs fathers home; at Indianapolis. where more than 100 pounds of explosives were found in the basement of the building occupied by the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Workers, and in a barn outside the city: at Rochester. Pa. where nitro -Alycerine was. found, and at Muncie Ind.
 Detective w J. Burns, who through evidence left at these places traced McManigafs connection with the Me Eamaras, probably will be a witness la ter.
 District Attorney Miller said the government was progressing rapidly with the investigation. He said more than tho preIiminaries had been gone through and it was probable all the evidence would be in within the month.
