BREAKING THE DEMOCRATIC LINE

Democrats in Congress showing the spirit of independence displayed by progressive republicans in the earlier stages of the insurgency movement and it at all unlikely that the Jeersonians will find themselves divided the republicans divided into opposing camps. : It will not be bad result
 The American people will lose anything account of these party breaches Public business may be delayed account of too much facona aggng But the final outcome will not be unwhoesome.
 Oscar Underwood in respects the most successful democratic leader in the house since the time of Crisp and Carlisle managed to hold his party associates together fairly we'll until he reached the tariff in the detail stages of the Mr. Underwood has not been able close the gaps On the contrary the breaks have increased from day day. and the party lash longer of effect It is just we for there why before Congress should be made party 3sAs
 What vital party principle for instance is involved in the democratic proposal to abolish the commerce court?
 There is no party question involved in this proposition unless it is to be found in democratic desire abolish the court merely because the republicans established it.
 If do not need the court if the court is failing to do what the amers of the law creating expected to do then the court ought to be abolished and the chances that all patriotic and intelligent members of Congress- irrespective of party aiaon will take that view of it. Yet the democrats have fit to this issue with view of making party question.
 It is absurd and childish ...
 Mr. Underwood does to realize that we are not living the age the mighty too independent be dashed into doing what they do not honestly believe be the right thing, and Mr. Underwoods failure to realize
 this vital fact has lost him the he had his party associates in Congress- Still there sonie good this breaking of the democratic line, for it independence of thought and acton and and patriotism and less narrow and hurtfu partyism in Congress.

Like many other authentic reports this proves to have had foundation in fact The War Department has announced that reductions will be made being deemed nadvisabe for reasons lower the rates charged by the present tariff It is urged that the annual balance sheet shows deficit This undoubtedly is tue but is submitted that the substantial that annually charged against the telegraph system Alaska for the anspor taon account and the maintenance of the cable repair ship Burnside eliminated there would be balance Alaska s credit It neither just equitable that this expense account should be sdded upon the earnings of the system and used as pretext for maintaining existing rates.

RAILROADS AND THE PEOPLE

The testimony of the head of the Union Pacific as to attempts made to induce the hiring legal lobbyist head off radcal action against the Hartman system gives the public picture behind the suggests welcome determination among high in the financial railroad world not to rely upon underground methods defense of rights or interests. vreyatk
 Of course cannot tell from Mr. Loves testimony that services not declined because the system already supplied with similar better ''protec on" But such is not the indication and fair to believe that the attitude implied by Mr. Lovetts action in this case part of the wise recent tendency of the railroads to rely upon publicity candor and the justice and sensible nteres the public to protect them from injurious legislation
 During the period when the railroad managers assumed that the railroads is private aarour business and the public be damned"-the public developed naturally corresponding attitude of damn the railroads But with the application of sharp discipline wisdom come to railroad men, and they realizing clearly today that their function is public not private As this has dawned upon the railroad men, and they have shown public spirit public opinion has begun to respond indeed it ought respond for its own advantage
 For the principle cuts both ways The railroads cannot prosper without the peoppe The people prosper with out the railroads Thus the policy fair dealing efficient service the hand the other protection from predatory politics and wisely favoring policy in regu

HIS FAV0RITE CARD TRICK
lee a Pathetic Sight When He Exhib-
its to Bunch of
Girls.

Is there anything in the world SO pa
thetic as the spectacle of a young man
showing his favorite trick with cards
to bunch of girls? The slaughter
goes something like this. Let us sup
pose that the man speaks first:
Il used to know a clever trick with
cards. If you like, I'll try to show 1t
to you while we're waiting Miss Mar
garet, will you please choose card
from this pack?"
Il am to choose? Which card do l
take"
Any one you like"
But how can | tell, when you show
me only the backs of the cards and
the backs are all exactly alike?"
That's IT, You just choose one at
random"
oh, that's the way? But is that
fair? Well I'll choose. I've got the
jack OF hearts"
"Oh, no. You mustn't tell me the
card you pick That's what I'm sup
posed to tell you. you know Put it
back into the deck and choose an
other"
why can't keep this one? | can
remember 1t better"
Yes, but then there wouldn't be
any trick You Sec you are to take a
card that don't see, and then I'm to
nuk out the one you looked at"
"Oh! You couldn't do that! Well
pick this one"
Very we'll. Now look at II and put
1t back into the pack"
What part of the pack shall
put 1t in?"
but how can you tell what card II
is If you don't know where ! put it!
Well. there it goes
Now take the deck and shuttle 1t
Now give 1t to me- Presto-there! Is
this the card you chose?"
"Oh, dear don't know. | forgot
to look and see which one took. Does
that make any difference? ] should
think the trick would be better If
didn't know. Oh, look! Here's Helen
and now there are enough to play
bridge. Helen, you should have been
here sooner. Mr.. Smith has beer

The Busy Bee.

There Is no domestic animal or
fowl that pays us as big dividends az
the honey bee. She works for moth
ing, boards herself, supports her
queen and the royal male harem, fer
tilizes the blossoms for miles around,
and frequently furnishes us with
enough honey In one year TO buy the
entire hive, bees and all, twice over.
Hives Of bees are frequently kept In
large cities. as well as in the country.
We have seen number OF hives on
roofs OF buildings, etc, where the own.
ers add no other space available. and
the bees will do just as we'll there as
or the ground provided the hives are
shaded from the hot sun.
Your success in keeping bees de
ponds upon one main factor, and that
is the food supply. They gather their
food in tho form of nectar and pollen
from all sorts of blossoms. The nee
tar is eaten by the bee, undergoes Ger
tain changes. and Is stored in the
comb as finished honey. The pollen
ner, and Is worked over into bee bread
with which the young are fed. A fairly
constant succession of Towering plants
must be available for your bees, and
there must be- enough of these flowers
so that the bees can gather more
honey than they need. Remember that
you don't get any honey until the
bees have all they need. You get the
surplus only.
Before you buy hive Of bees look
over tho territory within radius OF
a mile and size up nhe feeding posi-.
/ bllities. II there are considerable
amounts OF clover you are safe. Sweet
/ clover. fruit trees and bushes, bass
wood and mustard, buckwheat and flaX
are heavy honey bearers. or course
ornamental flowers do their share, but
they are of much less Importance
II you find plenty of feed without
too much competition from other bee
keepers, your next step Is to secure q
good standard beehive with a strong
colony Of Italian bees and tested ltal
lap queen. The eight frame Langstrott
hive is an excellent one for the begin
ner While your bees might be Sc
cured cheaper from some farmer, It II
easier to have them come right In the
hive at the start. The complete out
at viii cost about SIS.
Most people can handle Italian heel
without the slightest danger OF getting
stung, after q little practice. Befor'
then, It is well to use bee veil an'
tie your sleeves tightly
Your colony will increase from on
10 five hundred per cent. each year
