USELESS EXPENSE.

Another judge has instructed his grand jury to delay cases where the offense is of minor nature. It is no use and an expense that is needless to send such men to the state peniten- tiary where they will be promptly pardoned, he argues. Out through the various districts the judges and the jurors have been trying to uphold the dignity of the law and insure peace and order in the community. At Little Rock these efforts.
 The abuse of pardoning power has been thing of which every honest citizen for years has been ashamed. Not only with this administration but with others in the past has this pow CT been abused. It is important that the voters exact from the man whom they choose as the next governor q pledge that the law abiding citizens and the law enforcing officials of the various communities will not be bound hand and foot in their efforts for a better state.

FLIES.

The house fly (Musca domestica,) which represents over ninety per cent of those found indoors, deposits probably one hundred and fifty eggs at time Only ten or tewlve days elapse between the dropping of the eggs and the appearance of the full grown insects The females of the new brood in turn begin to lay their eggs in few days after birth.
 The development of the fly is sim liar to that of the mosquito. First the eggs are deposited; within 24 hours these are matched and the larvae appear; after further period of five to six days the latter pass to the full=grown fly in three to six days.
 The larvae are we'll known as "Maggots," and are about one-fourth to an inch long. They are white crawling bodies, having the appear ance of caterpillars. They are com monly found during the warm wealth CT upon almost any manure heap, dead animal or other decomposing substance.
 Flies will breed wherever there is any kind of filth. Carclessness re- garding manure heaps, garbage and any other forms of decomposing mat ter is responsible for the constant annoyance of flies in farmhouses and country homes.
 Unfortunately, the public has not q very clear understanding is to the means by which flies may be eliminated, or the object sought in carrying out this important sanitary measure. Innumerable poisons, fly catchers, and "swatters" are on sale, devised for the purpose of trapping or destroying flies. While these are very popular, they have little or no practical value, for, as in the case of the mosquito, the extermination of flies can be successfully accom- plished only by the destruction of their breeding places.

HIRAM DELIVERS AN LTUlMATUM

There is no question but that Sena- tor Hiram Johnson means business when he tells Senator Harding that there must be no pussyfooting on the league of nations issue, says the Com msrcial- Appeal. Hiram already has expressed himself as being in q meas ure satisfied with the plank of the re- publican platform dealing with the league, because meaning nothing it could be construed as meaning any thing. The construction given to the plank by the republican candidates will be all-important, and in this re- gard Senator Johnson sounds { this clear-cut warning to the republican nominee:
 If in his speech of acceptance
 he should evade the issue Il most
 difficult situation will be pre-
 sented to men like myself.
 The inference from this declaration is obvious. Senator Harding must come out flatfooted against the league of nations or he will lose the Johnson influence in California and other western states. But if he does make such a declaration he will re- pudiate the course of Senator Lodge and the republican majority in the senate. Also should he indorse the Lodge view of an international de. batting society he might alienate the influence of Elihu Root, who seems tc have been converted to the idea of a league with both power and authority
 The dilemma offered to Senator Harding is anything but pleasant. Fol democracy it is most suspicious. Sen ator Harding is offered the choice oi sacrificing the east or the west, sacrificing either the east or the west and either, combined with the solit south, ought to make Gov. Cox oul next president.
