Enormous Loss From Vermin

Rats, mice, flies, mosquitoes, and
the various forms of body parasites
have always been held in contempt
and disgust, and always and every
where have been regarded as vermin.
Growing knowledge of the important
role played by these lower forms of
animal life in the transmission of
disease is ample justification for this
feeling. They are exceedingly ex-
pensive.
The Journal of the American Med
ical Association comments on a re-
zen article in Farm and Fireside,
which discusses the amount of DAM
age done in this country by rats, and
estimates that there are in the Unit
ed States at least 800, 900, 900 OF these
animals, alike destructive to prop
erty and dangerous to health. Rats
are said to destroy 500, 900, 900 worth
of grain every year in this country,
or enough to feed one hen for every
man, woman and child in the nation.
The annual cost of rats to the nation
is estimated at $3.50, 900, 900.
IN aOOlClOn, the d pOpuIdlloH VI
the country forms a fertile field for
the dissemination of bubonic plague
which only needs a starting point in
any of our seaports to spread through
out the country and cause the loss of
thousands Of lives.
In the same issue of the Farm and
Fireside, but in a different depart
ment, appears an article on the cattle
tick, in which it is estimated that the
difference between the market value
of an animal free from this parasite
and one infested with it is about IS
a COW, and that the cattle tick is to-
day costing the stockmen of the cOun-
try 81, 200, OOO, 900 each decade, or
$1OO, 900 900 each year.
The discovery and development of
bacteriology showed that mar had
been carrying on for centuries an un-
conscious struggle with the lower
forms of vegetable life. Recent addi.
lions to knowledge of the habits and
characteristics of vermin show that
an equally relentless struggle has
been going on between man and the
lower forms of animal life.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF cHOurEAu COUNTY
AMENDMENT IS VALID

There will be general satisfaction
among Montana citizens over the de.
cision of the supreme court in which
it is held that the initiative and refer
endum amendment to the state con.
stitution IS valid. The amendment
was adopted eight years ago by a
vote OF nearly six to cne-about &c..
900 Montana voter taking part in
the election--but il has been claimed
by its opponents that there we're ser.
jous defects in the manner in which
it was submitted. These alleged if.
%reeularities we're the basis of a suit
which resulted in the decision that
they were not Of sufficient import
ance to invalidate the amendment.
The light of Montana citizens to
enact laws by popular vote, and to
repeal acts OF the legislative assem-.
bly, that no not represent the will OF
the voters, is sustained by the de-
cision of the court. The decision re
moves any dOu3r or uncertainty that
may have leen caused by attacks
upon the validity Of the amendment.
The decision OF the court in favor
Of the constitutioAa]ity of the law is
on the grouLd that there was substan-
tial complia, &c with the law in the
adoption of the amendment.
Two points were involved in the
controversy, n that the initiative
and referendum should have been
submitted as two instead of as one
r. oo1~I,,C, SOIO,,lS o,oe ,o-I
nents than one lie submitted at the
same election, they shall be so pre-
pared aud distinguished by numbers
or otherwise that each can be voted
upon separately"
The second point of attack was
that the constitution requires that
proposed amendments be published
for a period of three months next pre-
ceding the election in at least one
newspaper in each county of the state.
In 10 counties, it was commended, this
had not been done, in that daily news.
papers published the notice only once
a week for 10 weeks instead of daily
for 20 days.
In the opinion the court says: $50
long as human agencies are TO be
employed in carrying out the consti-
tutional scheme of amendment, slight
errors and defects in procedure are
certain to occur, and to impose the
rule Of literal compliance would, for
all practical purposes, render the
adoption of any amendment absolute
~ impossible and defeat one of the
very purposes of the constitution it.
self. We ought not, by any strained
construction, mean something alto,
gether different from what the PEG.
pie had in contemplation in it's .adop.
ton. No rule of construction should
be invoked which will trammel the
people in their efforts to exercise the
right reserved to themselves to
change their constitution by popular
vote"

RAILROADS AND THE PUBLIC

times are dull and industry is de-
pressed, and Our profits have been
cut down." is the plea, in effect. of the
railroads of the United States that
are asking authority from the gov
eminent to advance their rates. But
other interests suffer from the de.
preston that has cut down the profits
of the railroads. In e. lines
factories have been closed altogether
or have cut down their output. Their
profits have been diminished or n
verified into losses, and their employees
thrown out of work, constitute a part
of the consuming public that would
have to pay for the proposed higher
freight rates.
Merchants, too, have felt the depres-
sion, and some of them have gone in.
to bankruptcy. The building trades
have not escaped the effects of dull
times, nor the owners of real estate.
None of these think of asking the
government for specific relief.
The railroads are asking that the
American public, in addition to bear.
ing its full share of the burdens of
dull times, shall be required by gov.
eminent authority to take on the bur.
den of the railroads. The railroads
want continuous prosperity-in good
times as well as dull times.
1t would seem just as reasonable to
try to put the shoe on the other foot
for the consuming public to plead
that in dull times, when they were
least able to pay freight rates, the
railroads should be required to lower
their charges and reduce the general
cost of living.
If the railroads say that increased
rates would make them prosperous
and that in turn would stimulate gen
eral prosperity, the public could say
with equal justice and logic, that re
duced freight rates and lowered cost
of living would foster prosperity and
the railroads would profit from i'm
proved general conditions.
1t is true that some railroads are
not paying dividends, but government
investigations show that this misfor
tune is largely due to mismanage
ment. The report of the interstate
