The report from Mexico, last night,

circulated on the eve of his i'm
parchment that his wife had been
conducting the stock speculation
unknown to him. Mr.. Suffers
claim to respect had been blasted
previous to this but this act robbed
him of the least claim for sympa-
thy. The wife is dangerously i'll as the
result of her husbands disgrace but
he brazenly accepted the exposure and
continued for days to openly defy
the law and constitution of his state
He hasn't leg to stand on in the
charges that have been proved
against him but he refused to yield
and has placed himself beyond the
pale of citizenship. The only place
for him is in state prison and the
sooner he is placed there the great
er will be the credit to the state of
New York.
There is one other feature of. the
case we do not understand and that
is the vote of the republican MEM
bers of the New York legislature
against the impeachment of the gov
nor. They may claim that his inn
parchment was the work of Tam
many and they were voting against
that organization. But Tammanywas
right in voting for his impeachment
and it is no credit to the republicans
of New York to vote against Tamma-
ny when it is in the right. The repub-
lican party has done itself no bene-
fetal service in it's vote and Sulzer
in his complete decentralization de-
served no support or defence what
ever from the hands of the republi-
can or any other party.

Fishing is not a specially popular
subject to suggest to a thrifty far
mer. The loss of days work and
the paucity of results look un-
profitable to him. But there is
another side to the case and it was
well expressed before the Massa-
chusetts grangers by George H.
Graham of the Massachusetts fish
and game commission. His ideas
agree so closely with those of Yer
mont's fish and game commissioner
that we produce some of them.
He stated that people going on
vacation are largely Influenced as to
location by the fishing that is to be
had in the place under consideration.
The man wants to fish and he wants
to fish where fish are plentiful so
the stocking of streams and lakes is
desirable.
Mr.. Graham said:-'Nothing will
help increase the price of farm pro-
perty more than to have a good
pond on or near it that is we'll
stocked with fish and where the
public are allowed to go and fish
We cannot encourage any other out
door recreation that will bemore ben
eficial to health and pleasure than
the idea of going fishing*** Many
more city people would spend their
vacations on our farms if they were
able to get good fishing in a near
by river or lake" The first state
ment may be a little strong but
there is considerable truth in it that
should be remembered by the farm
ing element when methods of i'm
proving fishing are under discussion
Here is another picture by Mr..
Graham When our waters are
stocked as they should be, our river
banks and the shores of our lakes
and ponds will be dotted with camps
and bungalows, all of which are tax
able property. The people who oc-
cupy them will have to buy provis-
ions and have transportation; the
money that is now going to our
neighboring states will be spent at
home. 1t will mean a saving each
year of many hundreds of dollars at
a very small cost. There is no de-
partment Of the states work that
should be as popular as the work
of the fish and game commission,
and no department is in position to
return more to the people in dol
lars and cents
Vermont has done much in the
way of stocking waters with fish
and is trying to do more. There is
however another source of good
fishing that has not been much de-
veloped-ehe construction of ,arti-
fetal ponds for the raising of fish.
1t has been done to some extent,
but there are hundreds of places in
the state where a dam could be
constructed at small expense and a
pond that would furnish the best of
fishing developed. If the owner
feels he does not care to undertake
the project alone he can easily or
ganize a club that will aid in the ex-
pense for the sake of enjoying the
fishing. 1t might pay the farmer
we'll not to scorn the idea of fishing
but to study what opportunity he
has for developing good and profita~
able fishing on the property of him
self and neighbors.

Masculine Pulchritudc.

medical magazine says that men
are growing handsomer. The cynic
might reply that there is abundant
room. In this the cynic would be
wrong. III American men become
much more beautiful the feminine half
Of creation is In danger of forgetting
suffrage and everything else In sheer
admiration. The medical publication
does not stop with personal pulchri-
tude. however. 1t says that we are
better housed. better fed and better
clothed than ever men were before. If
this be true the men who lived before
have our undivided sympathy. That
they were not up to our standard of
beauty may be readily conceded, but
that they had worse clothes, houses
and food leaves them in bad way.
Are men growing handsomerY How
can theyf Possibly the medical editor
who wrote this was trife subjective
In his mental viewpoint. Most men are.
They do not think Of mankind in broad
general terms, but have some particu-
lar man in view, and that man Is usu-
ally the one doing the thinking. The
lego in his cosmos gives him an In
dated idea OF all masculine loveliness.
This is form of sex vanity.
Heretofore beauty has been thought
feminine property. and men have
prided themselves on other things. Not
few women admit In secret that
their masculine ideal Is n rough. hairy
creature who is cross between
cave man and Morse viking. Neither
the cave man nor the viking ever saw
a bathtub or a barber. Whether or
not the modern man IL handsomer than
they. he at least is cleaner and has
less hair.
