japanese officials have pro6te1 in
many ways through their observa ion
of the practices of officials in Western
nations. Recently it would seem they
have been following so closely in the
steps of their Western prototypes that
they have been enric hing themselves
At the expenses of the naval contracts.
In America. England. France. or Ger
many. charges of graft would arouse
only mediocre interest on the part of
the masses. But the japanese people
take these things little more serious
~. as was evidenced by their attack on
the japanese parliament In this in
stance. at least. the peoples of the DC
cident might well profit by the ex-
ample. and become more deeply arous-
cd over the speeulstions of public Off
Gals.

suggests to my mind also, Why

ton from registering, to the men who
frequent these houses, who visit
these same inmates? And, also, why
should he not put the same test to
his new list of election clerks? From
an election point of view, why not
ask Judge Owens if there be, in prin-
ciple, any difference between a Del
mOnicO dinner and a glass of beer,
when he makes such sweeping
changes in his clerks of election. 3D.,

Dear Day Book: Under the mead
ing 'The Social Evil Is Slated for An
other Probe" there appears in your
edition Of Friday this paragraph
about a meeting of the Public Health
Committee: 1.-The meeting nearly
split up owing to an argument over
the city's right to let a lot of scien-
fists Undress and examine every girl
brought into the Morals Court" Also,
DR.. Evans is quoted as saying at this
meeting: Eve must control the
spread of contagious venereal dis
eases, more dangerous than scarlet
fever and smallpox, or have an cpl
demic of these diseases"
These paragraphs lead me to ask,
Is there any sex in the spread of
smallpox and scarlet fever? Does the
spread of gonorrhea and syphilis and
chancroids know any sex? Since
there is but one answer to these ques-
tions, and that answer is NO." and
since a person does not have to be a
physician to know that there is but
the one answer NO." then why ex-
anime only the girls?
Another paragraph reads: GA wo-
man who, therefore, gave no sign of
having the disease would infect
countless men"
This is the first admission l ever
happened to see in print that count
less men would be infected" Are they
not prostitutes also?
This leads me to ask, Who infects
the clean women, that commercial
lied vice forces into the life of pros
titutes? Certainly not a woman.
Therefore, is not man an equal and
far more dangerous spreader of Vene-
real contagious diseases? Most as
suredly' and Yes" are my answers.
The amount of stupidity and crimi-
nality is inexpressible in word Ian
gUage, which is shown by man when
he advises examination and sO-called
cures and pretentions of cleanliness

UNCLE SAM CAN DECIDE n.

The railroads are bombarding the
people with appeals nor to permit the
posroffice department to reduce the price
paid them for carrying the mails until
after committee appointed two or
three years ago has been allowed to re-
port that their pay ought to increased.
Two of that committee Of five are long
since deceased. The chances are that
the people will conclude that the post
Office department, which is trying to
save them money, is better Judge Of
the matter than the railroads. They
remember that the express companies
were much pet,lrbed because the post
office department insisted on establish
ing the parcels post, since which time
the express companies have been oper-
ating under greatly reduced rates.

RYE SURPRISES FARMER

Taking a big crop from forty acres
of land after the seed had been sowu
for two years with slight evidence of
it's ever bringing harvest is the exper-s
ience of K. Halwick, who lives near the
town of Highmore. Two years ago
Halwick sowed his forty acres to rye.
and gave his attention to other
crops. Hegot no crop at all in the rye
field and marked 1t up as total loss.
Last year some of it came up, bringing
him about 200 bushels from the whole
forty acres, and he had about given up
hope of getting anything more than
that for his seed and work. This year
the rye came up of itself and he an!
nounces that he is certain to have big
harvest.

FOSSILS IN ROSEBUD

Fossiled remains of ancient birds,
reptiles and mammalia which are being
found in abundance, together with fine
colored shells, such as usually seen only
on ocean beaches, establish the belief
that the great Rosebud country was
once large inland sea. The most re-
cent discoveries are attracting the at
ton of geologists.
Parties digging we'll recently found
large she'll, shaped not unlike ocean
clam, delightfully."- colored and in perfect
condition. 1t was embedded in solid
earth thirty feet below the surface, and
had probably been preserved. deep in
the earth for thousands of years. Other
evidences of ancient animal life. even
more remarkable, are being discovered
in the flats in McNeeley township, near
Dallas, where a streak of mari und
maagnesia earth formation appears,
containing an apparently endless supply
of fossil deposit. When taken out these
fossils are soft, but soon harden in the
air, when color changes.
