RUSSIAN POLICY.

We cannot make our fiscal pros
perity dependent upon the destruction
of the spiritual and economic powers
OF many of my subjects, and there
fore II is necessary to direct our
financial policy towards seeking gov
eminent revenues from the unex-
hausted sources of the country's
wealth and from the creative toll of
the people, to seek constantly, while
preserving wise economy, to increase
the productive powers of the country
and to take care of the satisfaction Of
the peoples needs.
Such must be the ends of the de-
sired changes,
am fully convinced that they must
succeed and that they are absolutely
necessary for the good of my people,
especially since both the Duma and
the Imperial Council have turned their
attention to these needs of the people
by revising our alcohol laws.-Nich.
olas, czar of Russia.

WAS WAITING FOR REAL HEAT
At 114 In the Shade, Farmer Didn't
See Necessity for Shortening
Hours Of Labor in the Field.

A st. Louisian who responded to the
Macedonian cry for help from the
Kansas wheat fields tells this story:
"The farmer told us we were to
work ten hours a day, but that when
1t got hot he would knock off an hour
One day, after we had been out in the
blazing sun until we were painting for
breath, we came in to dinner to find
the mercury up to ia. We thought
the farmer would say something about
short hours that afternoon. but he
didn't AS we started out to work
said to him:
lone hundred and fourteen in the
shaded!
Yes he answered. DO you feel
1t much?'
" No. said, I don't mind IL par
ticularly; but when does It get hot out
here?'"

State Relieves Fertilizer Men.

Steps were taken by Secretary OF
Agriculture n. b. Critchfield to
straighten out the tangle caused in the
fertilizer trade by the cessation Of
shipments of potash from Germany.
1t is estimated that al least ninety per
cent of the potash used in fertilizers
In this State comes from that country
and in order to conserve the stock in
this country manufacturers will be
forced to use a smaller portion than
has been done. To facilitate matters
Secretary Critchfeld has issued cir.
cular in which a way is pointed out
for the marketing of fertilizers for the
fall trade without making a new regis.
tratlon with all that such procedure
entails.
The letter of the Secretary on the
subject is as follows:
This department recognizes the
fact that with the shortage there is
likely to be in the amount of potash
available this fall manufacturers will
find It difficult to prepare their goods
for the fall trade 90 as TO meet the re.
quirements of the registration made at
the beginning Of the year, and to re.
lieve this situation as far as possible
this department shall be entirely salts
fed to have manufacturers Of ferti.
lizers reduce the per cent. Of potash
they put in the goods they place on
the markets for the fall trade of the
current year without making an addi-
tional registration of the same, pro-
vided that no change is made so far
as the other elements of plant food are
concerned and that they erase the fig.
ures that are now printed on their
sacks showing the potash the goods
contain and attach to the sacks with
good, strong twine or wire a tag on
which is plainly printed the revised
analysis of the goods the sacks con.
tain, and provided further that they
send to this department notice of any
change made in the per cent of pot
ash, specifying the brands of goods in
which such change is made"
In cases where the charge is less
than one per cent. the decimal on the
bag may be erased

Private Rail sidinas.

The Public Service Commission held
question as to whether railroad com.
pany can legally charge demurage on
private cars standing on private
switch in a complaint brought by the
Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company
against the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company.
J. NJ. Bellville, Of the glass com.
pany, contended that such a charge
was not proper because the railroad
company renders no service while the
cars stand on a private track, Henry
Wolfe Bikle, for the respondent told
the commission that the rules govern
ing demurrage charges were adopted
by the National Association of Rail
way Commissioners, and enforcement
was necessary to avoid discrimination
The commission approved the petit
ton of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
Company and the Schuylkill East
Service Railroad Company for the ap-
proval of crossings at grade over Wolfe
and Dickinson streets in Philadelphia.
The proposed switches have been ap'
proved by the city of Philadelphia.

LOSS TO THE NATIoN7

The following statement is taken
from the report of the Massachusetts,
commission on drunkenness: THE
greatest economic loss to the state
lies in the idleness of capable men.
Nineteen out of every twenty men i'm
prisoned for drunkenness in Massachu.
setts last year were OF American or
British birth. unhandicapped In their
occupation by difficulties with our Ian
guage. Four out of every five men so
imprisoned we're between seventeen
and fifty years Of age. and therefore
at the very period of life when indus
trial output should be largest. These
men, at the prime of life, lost over
100000 working days from imprison-
ment alone last year and probably an
equal amount of time was lost.in hunt
ing for work after release from prison.
That efficiency In work is reduced
through alcoholism is unquestioned.
II is impossible to calculate the con-
tinuous loss which 1t involves"

Alfred Noyes, the exponent OF pay.
ing poetry" told a good story at
Princeton.
"One morning" he said, my work
was interrupted by westerner. He
rushed in on me enthusiastically. He
bruised my hand with the power of his
cordial clasp. He made me 81; down
and write my name 30 times on a
sheet of foolscap that he drew from his
pocket-he wanted to distribute, he
explained, my autograph among all his
friends. He even urged me to write a
poem for him-to dash a poem of
while he looked on. This failing, he
would not go till / had read him a
good half-dozen selections from my
works"
Mr.. Noyes sighed.
And all the time he ended, the
duffer called me Boyes."

PERTINENT QUESTIONS.

A young man in a nelghboring coun-
ty seat was fined for intoxication, and
the fine was remitted on condition that
he stay sober until July 4. Is 1t fair
to man who has acquired the drink
appetite to put saloons in his way and
then demand that he stay sober? Ev-
cry time he sees saloon or smells
the odor that comes from one he has
an uncomfortable desire to go In and
fill up. Is It fair to set traps to create
the desire, intlame 1t to the point of
desperation, and when he falls to pun
ish him for It? Is it not true that II
you vote for saloons you are to blame
for the shame and misery they unload
on the community? - Uhrichsville
Chronicle.

NATION MUST BE PRESERVED.


From nowhere and from no one In
the assembled statesmanship Of the
nation Is there any hint OF from what
sources the tremendous annual federal
income OF $250,0O0,000 now derived
from imported or domestic liquors is
to be replaced" walls Mr.. Joseph De-
bar, secretary Of the National Whole
sale Liquor Dealers association.
We respectfully call his attention to
the address made by Senator Morris
Sheppard before the subcommittee of
the committee on the judiciary. He
says:
There are legitimate sources Of
revenue yet untouched. There are
few direct taxes on luXuries. The in
come tax has little more than
scratched the surface Of enormous
wealth. There is no federal inheri-
tance tax. Non-alcoholic beverages
are untaxed The national domain,
with measureless mineral resources,
water powers, forests and the like
could be managed so as to produce a
yearly usufruct of fifty or one hundred
millions. The pension roll gives prom
Use of rapid decline"
The crux of the argument for the
abolition Of the liquor traffic, however
lies in the senator's further statement
that "the American republic cannot en-
dure II the liquor traffic continues to
absorb the earnings and the energies
of the people-to threaten their moral
and material welfare"
The preservation Of the republic
through a higher standard Of citizen
ship is the end and aim OF all tenn
perance legislation.
