A REAL SNAKE STORY
Mrs. Whitmore Dispatches a Large
Sized Egg Thief.

Will Lafollett, who has just return
ed from fishing expedition on
Skunk river, has no fish stories to
tell this time, but he has a snake
story that it worth while. He went
up to the John Whitmore home the
other evening for some milk and
found Mrs. Whitmore somewhat eX-
cited. Upon inquiring into the cause
he discovered a dead bull snake
about six fet long lying near the
chicken house. The snake had been
rObbing the hens nests and Mrs,
Whitmore had put an end to the in
truder She found him curled up in a
nest where she had a setting of gui'
nea eggs. He had swallowed two OF
the eggs and was making way with
the third when a hoe in Mrs. Whit
more's hands separated his head
from his body. Mr.. Lafollett thinks
Mrs. Whitmore had just cause to be
excited, and he is of the opinion that
not one woman in a hundred would
have tackled the ugly looking rep
tile as she did. Mr.. LafOllett says
he and Mr.. WhitmOre later cut the
snake open and returned the two
eggs, which had not been cracked in
their journey down the snakes neck

The COUNTRY MINISTER.

A preacher in the May Century
says: The country minister should
have a house and a fixed salary OF
not less than $1,000 a year" In a
contribution to the Washington Press
Howard A. Burrell seconds the mo-
ton. He declares that the country
clergy hold the world together, and
proceeds to prove the assertion after
the following fashion:
They marry our lovers, baptize
our children. visit the sick. bury the
dead, keep the churches alive, eat our
chickens, are the victims of donation
parties, are especially bored by book
agents for their 'tnflooance,' and they
stand in the breach, generally. They

CORPORATIONS NOT AFFECTED.

While the supreme courts decision
dissolving the Standard Oil company
seems to have touched a popular
chord throughout the country, it
seems strange to hear a note of ap-
proval from Wall street. Henry
Clews in his weekly New York letter
says:
The court has given a not unex
pected Interpretation to the statute
by declaring that it forbids only un'
reasonable restraint Of trade-re-
straint by which the public at large
is a sufferer. The Sherman law was
enacted, primarily, to put on the ma
tional statute books the penalties Of
the common law in regard to trade
restraint. This is something that
Senator Hoar very clearly expressed
during the period that the Sherman
law was under discussion before its
enactment. He showed that there
was not any common law of the
United States and that the common
law prevailing in the separate states
of the Union could not, as such, be
enforced by the Federal courts by
means of any penalty or punishment
This explanation affords consider.
able light on the decision that has
just been announced, for it follows
the common law principle that re
straint of trade to be punishable must
be unreasonable-that is to say, il
nGf N
tent that will cause direct harm to
the public investments.
On this broad ground, it is evident
that our Industrial combinations that
do not fnjure public interests have
now nothing to fear from the Sher'
man law. Instead of killing this stat
ute. our supreme court may be said
to have vitalized it. Chief Justice
White very properly intimated that
by applying the rule of reason to the
act instead of following it literally
ahe court has probably sayed the
statute from condemnation as an un
constitutional enactment. A literal
Interpretation fthe law would mean
impairment OF property rights, in
obvious violation of constitutional
rights. A gratifying feature is the
fact that the supreme court bench Is
virtually unanimous in It's attitude on
the trust question. The decision will
go long way towards removing the
feeling of discrimination that has ex!
listed against industrials as q class
