The appointment of Dudley Field Malone to
the collectofhip Of the port of New York is sig
nificant move for the national administration to
make at this time. Malone succeeds John Pur-
roy Mitchell He is q son-in-law of Senator
O'Gorman and lust at the close Of the mayoralty
fight came out strongly for Mitchell and against
the Tammany boss, Murphy. 1t will be remenl,
bered that President Wilson refused to recognize
the Tammany Endorsement for collector of the
port six months ago, naming Mitchell instead.
The appointment Of Malone now shows the de-
termination Of the national administration to
force Democracy Of the Ta,nmanys stripe out Of
power.

are about ready to accept the

Wasn't Crazy, Just Mad.

Ashort session of county court
was he'd at Pennington recent
ly to inquire into the sanity of
Edward Turley of Valley Mines.
His wife was the only witness
against him and she declared he
was surely insane. Turley was
questioned by the court and ex-
amining physicians and he
answered their questions in a
manner that convinced them that
he was perfectly rational. He
said that their trouble was all
due to family rackets, he and
his wife both having uncontrolla-
bic tempers. The court decided
that Turley was not a fit subject
to be entertained at No. at the
expense of the public, Turley
and his wife have been separated
for about a year One of the
county judges advised them to
live together again and quit their
scrapping. Another Judge ad-
vised them to get entirely away
from each other and stay away.
They probably won't take the
advice of either.-Farmington

Attorney Samuel Untermeyer,
who was inquiSitor for the Pujo
money trust investigating com.
mittee, has just said that the
government should stop its in
vestigations of past Grimes of the
trusts and big business and get
busy in strengthening the laws
to prevent the repetition of such
OtfenScS. This strikes us like
common sense. SO far, little
practical benefit has resulted
from the multiplicity of invtSti-
cations and hearings that have
been applied as a remedy for the
evil of prcdaciouS business. The
fact that the trusts have gone
right on their way in their more
or less questionable methods of
doing business in spite of the
Investigations they have un-
dergone makes this process of
accomplishing their correction
farcicaI, Thepeople are familiar
enough, too familiar, to state the
truth, with the methods by which
they are being held up by big
business, and what they want now
is not to be shown how they are
being done" Let us be through
with that, and apply a remedy.
Mr.. Roosevelt, who can see as
far into a mill stone as any man,
has lately said that big business
has come to stay, and since it is
here permanently it must be sub
jected to such regulations that
will eliminate it's predacious
character.

Shelter the Machinery.

What an awful roar there
would be if you came home from
that trip to market and found
that Mrs. Farmer had found it
inconvenient to leave her sewing
machine in the house, and had
set it outdoors till needed again.
There had been a sleet and
snow, and a valuable piece of
household machinery is so near
ruined that it will take half the
price OF d new one to start it
running again. and it will never
do as good work as before. But
your binder still sets in the fence
corner and there is an endless
array of machinery and tools
scattered all over the farm. You
have always intended to build a
shed, but never could find the
time and perhaps if you have one
it was more handy to leave the
machine in the field than to put
It in the shed, and that it stays
there is just simply a matter of
neglect.
In Missouri alone thousands
of dollars are lost every year be-
cause of willfuI neglect of farm
machinery. We have known a
man to refuse buying his child
rem a nickle's worth of candy,
making the plea of economy,
when he was losing $500 a.
year on machinery because he
was too negligent to put up
proper sheds. 1t is hard to un-
derstand why one who is a.
shrewd business man in other
things, will do this, but you will
find them in every community,
and there are comparatively few
men who put everything that
should be protected in out of the
