Importance in the swine world, will be
held with the exposition at Spring

Great Britain's Democracy.

A writer to the New York World
makes the assertion that the govern
ment of the United Kingdom of Great
Britain and Ireland, while nominally
q monarchy, is in reality a republic
more democratic than that of any
other great nation even including the
United States. He points out that
the king has not used his veto power
since 1852 and the veto of the house
of lords was taken away in 1910, leav-
ing final and absolute power with the
house OF commons, elected by the
common people. In this body Ireland
has a representative for every $4,000
population while Great Britain has a
representative for every $4,000. Out
of total population of 100000 Ire
land has 100000 voters, which is
about the same proportion as exists
in the United States. How England
can commit any specific wrong in Ire
land under this system is hard to I'M
derstand. -Rrattleboro Reformer.

them from under the seats. on the

His two friends laughted heartily at
the Joke. Not so, however, the eonduc-

manded the twelve 25-cent pieces he
had picked up" in order that he
might hand them over in accordance.
with the regulations governing lost
property found in the cars.
In vain did the finder" protest that
Il was only eonjuring trick. The
conductor obviously did not believe
him. And in the end, In order to
avoid compulsory visit to the police
station, he had to give up the coins.
