A NEW MARKET.

The Daily Consular and Trade Re-
ports, a government publication, tells
of a new market for American horses.
The article says: ru'
The advertisements appearing in
various American newspapers asking
for offers of 500 to 1000 three or tour
year-old thoroughbreds and crossbreds
without performances and pedigrees,
500 TO 900 thoroughbreds five to eight
years old. and 1000 heavy cart horses,
for delivery in Germany. probably are
based upon the actual demands Of the
it is impossible to supply any informa-
ton in respect to the particular con-
Germ or concerns responsible for the
advertiseme nts. 1t is understood that
the German government will make eX-
tensive purchases during the coming
summer and autumn Of horses for
army use, and that such purchases will
amount to 10000 head before the end
of the year. The purchases for the
account of the government are made
by boards of army officers sitting in
various sections of the empire. The
actual importations are made by Ger.
man firms under conditions which orig
inal exporters in the United States
probably would be unable to fulfill
American firms. in order to participate
in the business, should get in touch
with importers who themselves would
resell to the government. .
While American horses have been
imported into Germany at various
times in the past. the business has
been irregular, and ,latterly, owing to
high freight rates, has been reduced
to an almost Ineligible figure. At pre-
sent. however, freight rates are lower
than heretofore and the demand for
horses much more active than for
long time.

GOOD WAYS AND BETTER WAYS.

1OOO WA . NIN0 DC WI ~
One good way Of getting rid of mos
quitoes is to pursue them with folded
newspapers and swat them. A good
way of getting rid of grafters in office
is to pursue them with Investigations
and indictments and send them to
prison If possible.
But q better way to exterminate
mosquitoes is to make their breeding
places unhealthy for them by the use of
scientific methods that will stop them
before they are ever born, and bet
ter way to exterminate grafters is to
install scientific methods which will
abolish the breeding place OF graft and
grafters.
That is the conclusion of the Bureau
of Municipal Research in the city Of
New York and the bureau is doing its
best to abolish graft in both city and
state. The need for such action is
shown conclusively in records which
give these startling facts: New York
states per capita debt in 1902 was
s1.5O, in 1912 it was $24-an increase
of 1900 per cent; In 1902 the per cap
tia cost of running the Empire state
was $2.55, in 1912 it was $6.13-an in
crease of 140 per cent.
Can you logically attribute these in
creases primarily to graft or do you be-
lfeve that graft is the child of ineffi-
cheney? Ear 81 lost state or nation

NOMINATION PAPERS.

A press telegram from Des Moines
says that candidates for state Offices
in the June primaries must base their
nomination papers upon the vote for
Governor Clarke In 1912 instead OF
the vote for Taft, according to rul-
ing made recently by w. S. Allen,
secretary of state. Taft polled 49,
sos votes while Governor Clarke had
184,14S votes.
According to the Iowa law, candl-
dates must have their nomination pa
pers signed by at least 1 per cent of
the voters of the party in each of at
least ten counties and in the aggre-
gate not less than one-half per cent Of
the total vote of the party in the state
in the last election.
The secretary of state declared that
the governor was the head of the
ticket in 1912, therefore the nomina-
ton papers must be made up accord
ing to the vote on candidates for gov
ernor on each ticket.
Republicans who figured on the
Taft vote instead of the Clarke vote
will be required to do considerable
work in securing Experimentation

az BRIEF,

Brevity Is the soul of wit; 1t is often
the secret OF success In line with this
a wellknown writer gives the following
good advice:
"Cut it short-Morgan, the financial
wizard, never used two words where
one would do. He reckoned his time
worth $1,000 per hour;-too precious
to waste in idle words. Talk is cheap?
Never! It's highly expensive. Useless
words waste time; time is money and
money is never cheap.
"Cut it short-think clearly; talk
plainly. Concentrate thought: concen-
trate words. Lincoln spoke about one
thousand words at Gettysburg. That
speech was masterpiece. Edward
Everett spoke about 10000 words from
the same platform; his speech was
never recorded. Everett spoke two
hours; his address is forgotten; Lin
coin spoke ten minutes; his address
will never die. If you want to be ef-
fective, be brief-Think it out: boil it
down; cut it short; say it plainly; stop
talking"

twinkling. BY way OF keeping the
peace she even parted dances be-

Tazewell would have no such part

creates a wrong impression. Sec. 5 of
Art. Z of the constitution says: But
no such law shall take effect until at
a general election it shall have been
submitted to the people" The consti-
