CANADA WINNING
CHAMPIONSHIPS
IN AGRICULTURE
The Latest Is Winning Cham
pionship for Oats a Third
Time.

Recently was published the fact OF
remarkable winnings by Canadian
farmers In several events during the
past three or four years. The latest
IL that OF Messrs. j. G.. HIN q Cons
OF Lloydminster, Saskatchewan, who
won In a hard contest for the oat
championship over Montana. At the
National Corn Exposition at Dallas
during February. Montana oats we're
awarded the championship for the
United States. Waiting for the win.
ner OF this TO be announced was n
peck OF oats belonging 10 the Ca.
madam growers above mentioned, and
alongside OF these was a like quantity
belonging TO n Minnesota grower. who
was barred from the regular compe.
tition because he was mt one time the
winner OF the trophy-the prize. The
three entries were side by side on the
Judges bench. II would not be pos.
sible TO bring together three more
likely samples. The Montana and
Saskatchewan entries were OF equal
weight-50 pounds to the bushel. The
Minnesota sample was some three
pounds lighter. The award was
unanimous In favor OF the Saskatche'
wan oats. a remarkable feature and
one greatly TO the credit OF the Ca
madam product was that the oats,
grown In 1913. were grown and shown
by those who had competed during
the past two years. winning on each
occasion. This. the third winning,
gave them for the third time the
worlds championship and full posses.

A DISMISSAL PRICE.

Everywhere over the state there is a general demand for a change in our system of courts, in recognition of the fear at least if not the absolute belief, that justice is too frequently influenced by petty costs.
 Dismissed at cost of the defend ant" is term that it is said has frequently found its way into the justice courts.
 A defendant in a criminal action, should be punished under the penalty of the law, if guilty, and acquitted of all punishment or penalty if not guilty.
 When a defendant in a criminal action makes an agreement with of ficials to pay the costs and be re. leased, justice is being measured by Q money value, which of course nit igates against the respect the peo. pie have for the courts of the land
 A penalty of the costs in a case might be very severe to one defend ant and to another a similar penalty might mean nothing. For these req sons the measuring of justice by dol lars and cents is not aiding justice, but is abusing our court system.
 The Garland county grand jury, in it's report, urged that the people awake to an interest in this subjec-, to an end that the state legislators may feel a hard and pressing de- mand on them to take steps to rem edy The evil existing.
 Publicity of an evil condition ought to be the first step towards an effective cure. It is, where the people take a proper interest in pub. lie affairs. That The people of Ar kansas have had attention frequent. ly called to this subject is not to be denied. Belief may be found in the state legislature, and will be found there if he people will make tine proper demands of those who repre- sent the people.
