UNHAPPY MEXICO.

The Mexican people are of such a
volatile nature that they are ever
ready to accept new popular idol
or to rally to the restoration of a
fallen one. Events of an important
character follow close upon the heels
of one another in that unhappy and
chaotic country.
Two years ago Gen. Porfirio Diaz,
The aged president, who while ruling
his country with a hand of iron
had brought about conditions of
stability and prosperity such as it had
never before known, fed for his life
Grom his palace and took refuge in
Europe to make way FOR Madero, fol-
lowing instructions in various parts
of the country.
Madero rode into power on fine
promises to relieve the poor and op-
pressed, which policies he failed to
fulfill. He proved to be dreamer, a
man of political incapacity, and of
unpatriotic ambitions. Other upris-
ings followed and at last he was de.
posed and placed under arrest by men
whom few hours before be- had
looked upon as his most loyal sup
porters and leaders Finally he was
killed in what was reported as an at
tempt to rescue him while being
conveyed to prison, but which to the
outside world looks more like deliber-
ate murder, and now the new
party in power is credited with the
intention to not only return to the
same policies under which Porfrio
sDiaz ruled but that Diaz himself has
been invited to return in triumph
and honor from across the seas to once
more become popular idal or even,
possibly be invited to return to
2power, in spite of his age which
would make it unwise for him to &C
sept such a thing if he wanted to.

THOU ART THE MAN"

In an editorial under the above
caption Leslie's Weekly, which surely
cannot be charged with pessimistic
tendencies. In recent issue called at
etention to the degeneracy of the
present age which it attributes to the
mad chase for dollars and the apathy
and Indifference displayed in our vot-
ing system, where from one fourth to
one half of the voters remain away
from the polls and large proportion
of those who do vote do so at the
dictation of others and with a lack of
Information that is deplorable
One passage from the editorial is
as follows:
We cannot have good government,
wholesome institutions, and a high
range of morality, until the humbIeet
citizen in the land exercises the right
of suffrage with as much care as he
selects his banker, his lawyer, or his
doctor. Many voter does not know
the name of thu alderman of mis- ward,

the member of the legislature for
whom he has voted. Yet to these are
ocOnfided the settlement of all questions
affecting the health. the education
and the safety of the people.
What is the reason? Are we all SO
intent on making money that we have
no time to devote to good government,
or are we SO beguiled by silver tongued
~demagogues, by noisy yellow journal
lists by cheap undertaking. magazine
writers. that we cannot differentiate
the darkness from the light. the good
from the bad, the just from the I'M
Just?
Let the critical reader who is con-
stsntly declaiming against the present
order of things and demanding new
conditions and new laws, stop and
think of his own responsibility for
a moment.
Then let him point his finger at
himself and say, ''Thou Art the

There is no good reason apparent in
these days why the sheriff of a county
should not be eligible to two con-
secutive terms of Office the same as
other county officers. At present it is
forbidden by the constitution and
Senator Robert Glenn, of this county
has offered in the upper house at
Madison joint resolution to amend
the constitution to permit of their
doing so. The resolution also pro-
vides that while the sheriff may be
twice successfully elected he shall not
thereafter be eligible to that office or
unde1sheriff. This looks like very
meritOrious measure. To become
effective it must be approved by two
successive legislatures and by the
people at general election.

Result of Mustard Spraying

Some spraying demonstrations to
destroy mustard with a solution of
sulphate of iron were conducted in
various towns of Somerset county in
June of the present year. The re-
suits seem to have been generally un-
satisfactory. In some cases the mus
tard was in part killed, and the bal
ance retarded in its growth. but the
killing was SO incomplete as to be of
little value.
We learn that spraying of this kind
done in Kennebec County by A. l..
Deering, in connection with farm DEM
onstration work, was more successful.
In every instance where it was appli-
ed to the young plants, they were
completely destroyed.
When the mustard first comes up it
throws out two leaves. Some eight
or ten days afterwards a third leaf
appears, and short time thereafter,
a fourth. The spraying should be
done on the appearance of the fourth
leaf. If delayed until the blossom
branch commences to put out, it will
have very little effect These yell
low weeds, mustard, kale, etc, all ap-
pear to be effected alike. They are
so common in this region that we may
well study any method likely to be eff
fective against them.

'sM|THF|ELD GRANGE ENTERTAINED POM
ONA At ITS MONTHLY SESSION
Entertaining Topics Wisely Discussed, And a
Literary Program Helpful Meeting

The Somerset Pomona went to
Smthfeld, Tuesday, Sept. 8, and held
the regular September session with
Fairview Grange. 1t was busy time
of year and the attendance was below
an eyerage but it was a lively meeting
just the same. The Master, Asst
Steward Chaplain, Secretary, Gate
Keeper Pomona. Flora and Lady
Asst Steward were the officers pres
ent. After the business transaction
A. B. Cole of Fairview Grange gave
the welcome address and F. A Dins-
more, Asst. Steward of the Pomona,
responded to the welcome.
The topics presented for discussion
were How shall we extend Grange
principles and secure for them the
respect and attention of the world
at large?' And What evidence is
there that the world is growing wis
er, brighter and BETTER" The speak
ers were ]. H. Frissel, f. II. Tobey
G. E. Savage, F, A. Dinsmore, Mrs
l.. W. Ham, S. +. Emerson and Bes-
sic Harding
AS regards the first it was conced-
ed that the basic principles of the
order should be continually observ-
ed and carried out. A Grange should
be very careful and not get away from
the yirtualstic rules, and all indiyid-
ual members stand by and work for
the common good. No organization
can win respect and prosper by in
difference and neglect. Nor should a
part of the members of a grange be
expected TO do all the work and carry
all the burdens as is too often the
case Obey the rules. have respect
for the welfare of the Grange and
satisfactory results will follow.
The second topic opened up a wide
leld for thought. Great influences
are at work building up instead of
tearing down. The nations of the
world are emerging from monarchies
to republics. Christian civilization
is penetrating the hitherto dark plac-
es of the earth. 1t is admitted that
wars and bloodshed still exist as in
Mexico and portions of Europe but
out of it all will come broader and
more stable forms of government.
Education and Christian civilization
are moving forward as never before
in the worlds history and the out
look is brighter and better
There were recitations by c. W.
Greene and II. l.. Head; songs by
Bessie Hardy; readings by Elya Gun
lift and Clarence Dow short stories
by several members and selections by
a graphophone. Next meeting with
Athens Grange. Tuesday, Oct. IA.
