Determinations between shippers
on railroads i. the TORN Of rebates
are no longer tolerated, and dis
elimination of freight rates in disre
gard of the long hau! and the short
haul principles are no longer to!er'
ated, because they work injustice as
between one citizen and another OF
between the citizens of one locality
and those Of another. Can the gov.
eminent in the carriage of parcels
consistently ignore principle which
it insists upon in the case of rail
roads and other carriers?
ITO sum up this part of the dis
cussion. The term parcels post
without defining the principle upon
which it is based conveys no definite
idea to the mind of any one. A par.
cells post with flat rates for all lis
tances would be a curse to the coun.
try 1t would be oppressive and un.
just as between one citizen and an
other. 1t would disrupt existing bust
ness, and stultify every legislative
act against rebates and other dis.
ordinations. II it adhered to the
correct principle of exacting as near
as may be, just compensation for the
service rendered the short haul dis.
tances wcull be so high as to court
the competition of the express com
panies, and nine.tenths of the benefits
to the public, which ought to accrue
from a proper adjustment of rates
would be wholly lost.
"The bill introduced by Congress
man Anderson, of Minnesota, comes
the nearest to compliance with the
principles which believe to be right,
and l should be glal to have that bill
substituted for the Parcels Post bill
Of the committee report.
"The provision in the appropriation
bill for the payment by the federal
government for the use of rural route
roads, which come up to a certain
standard, will give an impetus to the
construction and maintenance OF
good roads, which every good citizen
ought to welcome Good roads mean

improved conditions OF country life,
and an increase of happiness and
prosperity on the farm; and this
means less congestion in the great
business ceters, and a better distri-
button of our population. It means

and a greater number in thep ure

"The properly adjusted Parcels
Post, like the rural telephone and
electric interurban railroads, and the
rural free delivery of mail, which we
now have, will like good roads, help
to increase the attractiveness of coun.

introduction Of every one of these
improvements has we'll nigh paralyzed
the retailers of the village cross
roads with forebodings which have
never become reality. Other men,
bers Of the community need not laugh
at their expense, for, at some time
or other most of them have been in
the same boat.
There probably was never greater
or more groundless fear than that
which was caused among large bodies
of our people. by the Introduction OF
improvements in machinery for use
on the farm and in the factory. And
yet these improvements, like the free
delivery of mail in the city and coun.
try, the telephone and the interurban
railroads which we now have, and the
better highways, and the scientific
Parcels Post which we will have,
must for all time to come be recog-
nized as important factors in the ag-
gregate of human happiness"

From all indications another hat is
about to be SHE'D into Morton county's
political ring. This time it is John
Foran, owner and manager of the
Foran Grocery company, who will in
all probability soon become a candi-
date for the office of county treasurer
on the democratic ticket. A. Boley,
Treasurer Killand's deputy, will be a

WIVES RULE THE KITCHENS.
According to a japanese Saying, "A
Wife Is a Cook Without Pay"

From the st. Louis Post-Dispatch.
There is an old saying in Japan which
explains the position and duty of Japa-
nese wives rather sarcasticalli but truly:
"A wife is a cook without pay
Be she the wife of a nobleman or the
wife of a laborer, a Japanese woman
cannot be q good wife unless she is a
good cook, or at least a good supervisor
of the kitchen. Probably there is no
woman in the world who uses her abil-
