BY vote of 81 to l, the Senate
passed on Friday bill granting local
option to cities of less than 10000 in
habitants. At every session in recent
years such bill has been before the
legislature, but has always fallen by
the wayside. The real fight in con-
nection with the bin was over an
amendment by Senator Giotzbach Of
Fairbault, exenpting all cities hav-
ing home-rule charters from the pro-
visions of the bill, the vote on this
standing was 81 for and % against.
This was the first test vote in the
Senate this session on a temperance
question and is therefore quite signi-
ficant. Those voting for the amend
ment were Senators Amman. Ander-

Govern NJ Stewart by his act of
vetoing all new county bills passed
by the last legislature, has practi-
caliy said that he knows more
than the legislature. His first
reason for applying the axe was
that they are unconstitutional.
If so. he should have signed these
measures and let the courts so
decree. Then the legislature would
never be bothered with any more
county bills.
His second reason is just as un-
worthy of consideration as the
first. There is always some vote
trading for any measure, but there
were not nearly the amount OF
trading on these measures as on
senate bill 100 which was passed
and signed by the governor. His
third reason was the only logical
reason he had. He forgot to state
that the iniatory law is very ex
pensive, also very unjust as it re
quires 65 per cent Of the vote il
each territory cut off from 6
county to carry the measure. Thi'
is very unjust and does not let tht
majority rule. The fourth reason
he does not state, but undoubtedly
was the cause of the bills getting
the axe. Each of the new countie
would have been either progressive
or republican counties.

MOST HUMAN OF BIRDS.
Not Only In Talking, but In Eating,
g5 tho Parrot Initiates Man.

@ the Parrot Initiates Man.
1t is not only in initiating human
speech that the parrot eXcels most OF
the birds. The parrot is alone among
birds in taking food in its claws. With
these two characteristics it makes more
or less use Of that which distinguishes
humanity from the rest Of the animal
kingdom--the hand and the larynx.
The monkey uses it's hands and the
elephant it's trunk in feeding Various
animals have 4 habit OF paving their
food Rodents have serviceable toes.
Still, the parrot is pre-eminent among
birds in this regard. The secretary
bird is said to attack reptiles with its
claws. and some observers have said
that owls make partial use of their re-
markably flexible perching toe some
what more than does hen in scratch
ing for food. However, there is no
other bird which, when given piece
of food, will accept it i'll it's claws.
Parrots, of course, do not talk, as
we use the word, in their wild state
and are not known to be initiative OF
neighboring sounds nor to possess the
repertory of the mocking bird. It is
therefore a question whether or not
their use of the claws is largely imi-
tative also The shape Of the parrots
beak would indicate that some assist
ance in eating has always been part
Of the birds characteristics.
Like man, the parrot makes it's ap-
pearance in the world naked and help
less.-Harper's Weekly.

London, Sept 20-John q. Milburn,
who sailed for New York on the Maure-

cred America in a rather bad way
automatically just now. He said all
good Americans must feel keenly the
humiliation Of Secretary OF state
Bryans performance as part OF circus
troupe, with yodelers and jugglers on
the same platform. while at the same
time America was fast losing prestige
in Mexico. while other countries, espe-
cially England. were going ahead ana
making rapid strides in Mexico.
Il have been having hard time 10
get into my head the logic, IL it exists.
of Americas Mexican policy. We tell
Americans to get out Of Mexico, which
seems unreasonable when we consider
the vast interests that Americans have
there We tell Huerta TO get out that
we do not recognize him, and that the
elections must be fair. Well, who is TO
we do II our demands are not COM
piled with? We must either back down
or intervene and enforce the demands.
THE last time we went to war with
Mexico she had only a small popula-
ton, but we had to put 100000 men in
the field; to-day it probably would re-
quire 100000 men.
I'VE say we are a peaceful nation
and advocate worlds peace. universal
disarmament and say we are friends Of
Mexico. and at the same time make de-
mands Of Mexico whose direct conse-
quence are very likely 10 be war.
"In fact, it Is difficult for me to
grasp just what our policy is, and this
mental confusion is added 10 by send
ing 10 Mexico John Lind, a man from
the Northwest. who doesn't understand
the Mexican language or people. II is
a pity that President Wilson didn't
send some one like the late William J.
Buchanan, ex-Minister TO the Argen-
tine, who was persona grata every
where and understood the Latin
Americans. A man like him would
draw Mexico and the Latln-Americans
10 the United States OF America in
stead OF alternating them.
"Other governments recognized
Huerta. especially England. which has
large interests in Mexico. and has
gained greatly by the recognition. At
the same time the friendliness Of Mex
leo to America is steadily declining.
whereas II ought 10 be our constant
policy to make Mexico feel that we are
her best friend"
