LIBERUM VETO.
In the United States Senate.

Editor the News:-All historians
attribute the turbulent existence and
final dissolution of Poland, (now SO
much in the public eye), TO a consti-
tutional defect of organism, which now
finds its only parallel in the legisla-
tive practice of the United States SEN
ate; and this defect, though not or
ganic, has acquired vogue as many
Senators have acquired stopped shout
ders through long indulgence in a de-
leterious habit.
About the end of the fifteenth cen
fury, and marking the wane of Po-
lands greatness as a nation, it was
agreed in the Diet that any member
by u single 81 object" could defeat
any measure proposed. Old writers
call this the Liberum Veto, and for
hundreds of years every effort to alb
rogate this monstrosity of legisla-
ton was defeated, by the 81 object"
of some member of the diet in the
pay of Austria, Russia or Prussia,
who blinked on the borders waiting
to divide and develop the body of the
kingdom.
Recently we have witnessed dem
onstration of the survival of the sys-
tenn in the United States Senate, the
oihy legislative DOuy on earCn Wnere
one member or two or half dozen
units of minority" can defeat a
measure of public EFFICIENCY, not by the
easy interjection of two words which
would not only murder the subject,
but complete the obseques by a del
ugc of words, multiplicity of words,
molly array of disjointed sentences,
ON disconnected subjects, excerpts
from the Koran or DR.. Gums Family
Physician-any old thing that hap
pened to be in circulation when the
Senator was young enough to ere
ceive Impressions"
And to think of country that
revolted against the mild but pater-
nal tyranny of Great Britain; which
made war against the Spaniards for
"cruel and unusual punishment" of her
colonial subjects, which discarded
knee breechcs hundred years ago,
and dehorned uncle Joe Cannon the
other day, would stanG for this. We
don't only stand for it, but pay for its
publication in the Congressional Rec
ord, and charge it up to Senatorial
courtesy"
Just why this grotesque survival

SOMETHING GOING ON AT EoTU
ENDS OF THE LINE.

Some one, after reading the ar
ticle in last issue about "bad boys in
school," said, that it had leaked out
some how, that short time ago sev-
eral boys in the school here had vio-
lated the law, and that "Perfessor~
had them in his private Office while.
and worked on 'em," and the bows
fathers had them in the wood shed
when they got home, and "worked on
'em" also, and added, that there was
something doing at both ends of the
line, which recalls story: A minis
ter, whose church maintained two
mission chapels in the city, read the
following notice to his congregation
at the morning service: "There will
be divine worship at 3 O'Clock III tire
East end, at 1880 in the west end,
and baptizing at both ends" Some
thing going on at both ends OF the
lines. i srIf0ff

of the liberum veto has escaped the
assaults of progress, the attrition of
the ages, and the outlaws of Chris

tion in the abnormally developed sense
of humor in the American people, land

Since the people of Great Brit
tain have found it necessary to de-
prive their Hous of Lords of lesser
powers of obstruction, our upper
house is the only legislative body on
earth emasculated by so senseless a
handicap that the "fillibuster" has
rarely subserved any but the most
fagrantly partisan ends, and is al
ways used in quasi defiance of the
constitutional veto of the President,
the sworn servant of all the people.
That this unique practice should
continue to obstruct or defeat meas
ures of grave and immediate import
to the country, is all the more aston
ishing, when we reflect on the make
up of the body which has so recently
used and abused it-men, as a rule,

The Doctor and the Farmers Wife.

DR.. Clarence j. Blake of Boston tells
the following story:
A farmers wife was found too run
down from overwork to respond to
treatment. She told him that she and
her young daughter did all the farm
house work for family consisting of
her husband, two hearty sons and
two hired men. "And sometimes when
go to bed at night and think over
what's on hand that must be used to-
morrow and what will keep over and
what must be cooked and bought and
all the rest just wish that my folks
could have their victuals made up into
an ointment an rubbed into 'em."-

TO Protect Seed After Planting.
Bee Co Texoe

Farm and Ranch
l notice the question of A. S. High
as to how to keep mice from eating
melon seed from the hill. If he will
get red lead, dilute with turpentine or
kerosene just enough to make it pour
out of a bottle and pour over the seed
the mice will not eat the seeds. If
they should, they will not eat any
more. Meadow larks do not like corn
treated in this way.
This is the cheapest remedy for
moies, ground squirrels and gophers
l have found. One pound of red lead
to one bushel of corn is sufficient.
The cost is about 90 cents a pound.
BE careful with the lead, as it IS
poison. JAS. IT RYAN

Speaking of the liquor fight in
Pennsylvania, two things are notice
able. One is, the fight the saloons
are making against local option. They
fought local option in Virginia, until
the question of Statewide was
preached, and then they declared in
favor of local option. Local option
in Virginia demonstrated the absolute
necessity for statewide prohibition.
Nothing but a clean sweep will meet
the case. The other noticeable tl,in,.
is, that the reduction of the number oc
applications for licenses in Pennsyl-
vania, is due to the failure of the
brewers to put up the money for the
saloon. They see their doom, and are
unwilling to invest further in the bus
mess.
