II 1t shall be charged that q man has

The senator, said arguments for q
longer term were advanced as a plea
for business tranquility. He said
marvellous strides had been made in
the industrial world and that busi-
ness dominated and directed every
thing and everybody. 81 for one be-

pay too high price even for business

whose soothing shelter sprout and

which causes men to become indiffer.

He urged that public institutions
and laws should be shaped with a
care for the building up OF citizenship
and for the training and for the sac
rifices and obligations exacted and
imposed by all who live rightly in a
republic.
The senator said the concentration
and Capitalization of wealth, social
exclusiveness and Capitalization of
government, were menacing and mo-
mentous. He said that the power
now lodged In the bureaus of this
government, which were removed from
control or sympathy of the people,

contemplated.
In conclusion Senator Borah said:
when Caesar comes, when the man

the question of the terms OF office,
whether four years or six years, or

THE PEOPLE SHOULD DECIDE
PRESIDENTIAL OFFICE HOLDING
Senator Borah Makes Ringing Speech Opposing Limiting
Tenure of Office by Consttu-
ton.

Washington, Aug. Ex-senator Bor
ah of Idaho in the senate today
spoke against the proposed amend
ment to the constitution limiting the
presidential term to six years and
making the president ineligible fol
reelection.
Mr.. Borah said he would like to
know what there was in the present
situation which should prohibit a
man serving his country so long as
his acts and character commanded
the support and approval of the ma
jority Of his countrymen. He asked
IL anything had yet transpired in the
more than 100 years experience that
would indicate that the present plan
Of government was defective and ex-
pressed doubt that the supposed de-
fects of the plan would be eliminated
by the proposed change.
'No one knows until a man has
been an incumbent in that great of
flee (the presidency in what manner
he will meet it's great responsibilities
or how wisely he may exercise its
great power" said Senator Borah.
But at the end of four years the rec
ord lies open to all. The wisdom or
want of wisdom. the poise or want
of Poise, the understanding of the
lack of understanding of the duties
of the office, everything which a
thoughtful and considerate people en-
gagged in the grave task of choosing
chief needs to know can be known.
"We must certainly be prepared at
all times to assert and successfully
maintain that the strength and virtue
of our individual citizenship is the
measure of the strength and virtue
of the government itself. To assert
to the contrary, is to assert that rep
resentative government has an in
herent and incurable defect"
Senator Borah said that If the peo-
pie, in the exercise of the franchise,
could not reject a dangerous man or
continue In office a useful man then
the whole affair must terminate in a
wreck.
"No form of free government" con-
tinued the senator, mo scheme of so
cial poiity can ever be devised by
which you can make a strong and
efficient and powerful government out
of incompetent and irresponsible cit
izens. The power which Is to keep
this government going. which is to
supply 1t with vitality and strength
and durability, must be found outside
of the mere technical forms of gov
ernment, outside the formal statutes
and constitution, must be found
among the people-when it Is not
found there, there is not hope else
where"
Senator Borah declared that the
vital principle of representative gov
ernment is that the representative
should return at stated periods for
the approval or rejection of the peo-
pie, ''the conclusive presumption be-
ing that in the form of public con-
science We have not only the highest
but the wisest tribunal to which we
can apply in SO grave a matter. If

WAY or MARKETING APPLES
New Scheme Tried by New England
Growers With Apparent Success
How Plan Is Worked.

The objections to marketing apples
in the old way through commission
men has always given rise to much
complaint. A new scheme has recent
" been tried by New England apple
growers.
Under this plan the farmer sells his
apples outright to the commission
agent for an amount less than their
full value. The agency then disposes
of the product for as high price as
he can get. At the end of the year
he settles with the grower. The
amount formerly paid the farmer. as
we'll as storage and transportation
costs, are deducted from the gross sell.

between farmer and commission agent
The plan, wherever tried, has work.
ed wen for both parties. The indif-
ference OF the agent to everything but
his commission is done away with, for
his profits increase with each increase
in the selling price of the apples. The
new plan has not been very widely
adopted as yet, but it is thought that
when its advantages are fully known
it viii largely supplant the old slip
shod method.

LEAF MOLD oF MUCH VAGUE

lRv w. r. CELEBRITY

. ~ "
This term is applied to leaves when
they are SO thoroughly decayed as to-
readily separate into small particles.
Leaf molls is q valuable manure In
many instances, especially on heavy
soils, and one Of the most important
ingredients for the soil used in the
successful cultivation or the majority
of plants.
It may be used freely. particularly
with the tender seedlings and cuttings
of soft wooded subjects, provided It
be Of good quality and free from in
jurions fungous growths.
The production Of roots in young
plants of this description is induced
and accelerated with more certainty
by planting in this material than by
the use Of any other.
The quality Of leaf mold depends
very materially upon the sort of leaves
composing it and in the manner Of
preparation adopted
Tt is found from experience that
| the best leaves are those collected
from wood or other place where the
principal trees are beech and oak, and
where their leaves fall over large
surface each year, and naturally decay
slowly, until those beneath the sur
face become changed into light
mold.
Leaf mold Of good quality may be
used to the extent Of about one-third
in composts for azaleas, greenhouse
rhododendrons, and many fine-rooted,
hard-wooded plants Of this descrip-
| ton.
