Lightning Kills Colt in Jackman.

The heaviest thunder storm for the
season passed over Jackman early
Monday morning. The lightning
struck a three-year-old colt owned by
H. w. Holden. The horses and
colts were in the pasture a short dis
lance from the house. Mr.. Holden
went into the pasture to look after
the horses and found the colt dead. A
part of the name was burned and
several strips like the stroke of
whip ran from the shoulders to the
feet.
The lightning struck the Parades
house at Long Pond, ripping the
rooms to pieces. There were Is peo-
pie in the house, but no one was
hurt.

Stay! There is the blunder
The Democratic party today is
not what it was forty years ago.
1t is no longer reliably subservi-
ent to the liquor interests. There
are temperance Democrats to be
reckoned with. A few of them
in the legislature were able to
defeat the Dean bill. If it had
not been for six or seven Demo-
cratic legislators in the House
the Dean bill would have passed.
They blocked the game every
time.
They accuse Harmon of dictat-
ing to them. We think other
wise. It was the logic of the
situation that controlled. What
sort of presidential candidate
would Harmon make after either
signing or vetoing something
like the Dean bill?
There will be no further effort
at temperance legislation in Ohio
for some time, probably not un-
til the constitutional convention
will give US a new constitution
for the state. That convention
will have to deal with the liquor
question. No one can guess what
will be adopted by that body.
The two antagonistic leagues
will have to fight their battles in
this convention.

FOR ELETCRER'S
CASIO RIA
CHANGES IN THE SOIL.

Nebraska Trying to Ascertain Effects
Of Present Methods OF Farming.
The Nebraska experiment station has
been making some Investigations in the
line Of determining the amount Of soil
depletion by present methods of farm
ing. These were confined to the deep,
heavy loan soils that are common to
many parts of the northwest.
A recent bulletin gives the results Of
the analyses of many samples Of soil
taken at different depths from the sur
face inch to the sixth foot. 1t also
shows the composition of the surface
soil Of prairie fields compared with
that of adjacent long cultivated Gelds
the history of which is known.
1t would appear from the analyses
that the only form of plant food that
has as yet shown a diminution suttt-
cient to be detected by chemical analy-
sis is nitrogen. The only important soil
constituents, whether used as plant
food or not, that have declined appre-
ciably after thirty to fifty years of cul-
tivation are the nitrogen and organic
matter. These two constituents rise
and fall together They decrease rap
idly in amount from the surface down
ward. Accordingly the washing away
or blowing away Of the surface soil
will make the soil poorer in these con-
stituents. The greatest losses in the
past have been caused by washing or
blowing. The content of the other
forms Of plant food is rather higher in
the subsoil than in the surface soil and
accordingly is not injuriously affected
by the removal Of surface soil.
To maintain the surplus of nitrogen
and organic matter it will be neces-
sary to prevent the removal Of surface
soil by wind or water in so far as pos
sible. Further. the burning Of straw
and stalks should be avoided, and all
barnyard manure should be returned
to the land. Even If these precautions
be observed. there will be a steady de-
cline In the cultivated fields unless le-
gumes (clover or alfalfa) be grown or
the produce Of other fields be fed and
the manure applied By growing clo-
yer or alfalfa the nitrogen and organic
matter may be increased at the same
time that a profitable crop Is obtained.

they assume toward them. When
we take a retrospective view of
the history of nations and the in

Christ has had upon them, it ap-
pears to us that every one ought
to take a sincere interest in all
the institutions which make for
moral uplift of the human fami-
Iy and be implacably opposed to
everything tn a t undermines
them.
Every true, patriotic citizen of
any country should see to it that
no man of the pro-saloon type
ever secures any Office of public
trust. Our moral standards are
low enough without the open sa-
loon or any den of vice. Where
is our self respect when we al
low the liquor interests to dictate
the kind of laws we shall have?
Here's hoping that the American
people will rise up and sweep the
liquor traffic from our fair land.

Harmon of Ohio. Champ Clark,
the Democratic Speaker, has been
talked of as a presidential posi-
bility, but he hes talked so much
himself and so imprudently in
his long and mediocre political
career that it is doubtful if he
will be considered as an avaiIa-
BILE candidate by those of the par
ty with whom judgement pre-
walls. La Toilette of Wisconsin
is much talked of as the probable
Republican nominee for the pres
idency, and the race now is sup 4,
posed to lie between him, Taft
and Roosevelt. Senator La Fol-
lette is conspicuous for his criti-
cism of the transfer of the army
to the Mexican border. He de-
nounces it as unnecessary and as
an extravagant waste of public
funds, but it is probable that the
figures will demonstrate that the
army can be as easily maintained
along the Rio Grande as at the
various stations from which it
was entrained, and surely the
of mobilization and
the exercise of camp life cannot
do otherwise than improve the
efficiency and prit-du-corps of
a force doubtless enervated by
long inactivity. There was the
same necessity for moving the
army that there was in last year
Of Roosevelt's administration to
send the navy to sea and around
the world, and possibly other
reasons that Senator La Toilette
and some others have not yet
found out.

Once More Defeated.
BY LEO.

BY LEO.
The Liberal League has suffer.
Sed another backset in it's efforts
to enlarge the lawful sale of in,
toxicating drinks. The defeat
was by a few votes, but it ans
wered the same purpose as if
the majority had been much lar
ger.
The Fulton bill deserved its de-
feat, for it was based on no prin-
ciple, but was simply an effort to
do something to please and pro-
fit the pro-saloonists. The Dean
bill had some principle in it. It
was an effort to secure a more
perfect home rule in Ohio. And
many on the temperance side
had some sympathy with Senator
Dean because he seemed honest
contending for fairness in
bme rule, but the Fulton bill
Twas void of principle. It was
no more than an effort to enlarge
the lawful sale of intoXicants in
Ohio's dry counties. And it was
voted down, as it deserved to be.
AS to the Yount bill, making
violations of the Rose county op-
tion law jury trial cases, there
never was a chance of it's being
made a law. Even the wet Dem
ocratic Senate would have none
of it. It was sent back to the
temperance committee of the
Senate, there to be buried and
never to rise again. 1t was an
ironical bilI-not a serious effort
at law-making. The liquor bus
mess demands serious treatment.
Anything like a Joker" is en-
tirely unbecoming.
The Liberal League and those
in sympathy Herewith feel sore
over their defeat and some are
breathing out threatening and
slaughter, and, strange to say,
the object of their wrath is the
man they made governor of Ohio.
Harmon is the evil genius of their
undertaking. What! Did Gov
ernor Harmon take sides? Not
at all. He remained neutral be-
tween the contending leagues,
but that was his fault. Had not
the league made him chief ruler
in Ohio? Had they not built their
hopes on his cooperation? And
why could he not say a few words
of commentator when the ques-
ton was discussed? Pause, good
reader. and be fair with the Gov
ernor. What if he did see fit to
favor the pet measure of the Lib
eral League, as was expected of
him, how would the Anti-Saloon
League take it? The Governor
was placed between two leagues
and he could not favor one with
out offending the 8iher. What
could be fairer than to remain
neutral? Any other sensible man
in his place would have done a.
bout the same.
The Liberal League had good
ground for believing that the
present General Assembly would
practically repeal the Rose coun-
ty option law. Was not every
thing in Ohio Democratic2 The

Washington Letter.
Washington, Mar. 81.

The national Congress is agar
| in session-the second extra ses'
sion of the present administra'
ton. Speculation as to what
Congress will do is varied. 1t is
thought that the administration
would be more than pleased if
the Congress would ratify the
reciprocity agreement with Can
ada and adjourn, but the Demo
Gratis who now control the lower
house have a much more ambi-
tious program and indeed there
are tariff reforms that cannot be
enacted too soon. The period
between the adjournment on the
4th of March and the 4th of APP
ril has been full of interest. The
sudden mobilization of the army
and it's establishment on the
Mexican border has been the
subject of discussion throughout
the length and breadth of the
land. The ultimate purpose of
the administration is not known,
but preparation for any emer-
gency is the highest wisdom IN
national affairs. 1t is reported
that a large contingent of the
force now on the Mexican bor-
der will sail in a few days for
Honolulu. 1t is known that A
merican interests in Mexico de-
mand a strong American force
near that perturbed territory.

There is again discussion of a
peace pact between Great Brit
ain and the United States and
between France and the United
States. With reciprocity with
Canada and peace agreements
with Great Britain and France,
there would be little reason for
the continuous expensive naval
preparation of the last decade:
but there is no assurance that the
Senate will ratify such peace a

Jealous of their constitutional
privileges to vote separately and

accomplished even in the last ten
years.
