ford bulls at the college of agricul-
turc here are believed to be the most
travelled and among the most costly
bulls in the world. They are what are
left out OF ESQ Herefords bOubht by
the Philippine government from Texas
pastures three years ago. Instead of
putting the bulls into the hands of
cattlemen, the government shipped
them TO Zamboauga, at the southern
end of the archipelago, then brought
them back and afterward sent them
out to the college.
At various stopping points they
were infected with cattle disease call
ed rinderpest, from wlnch most Of
them died. Nineteen are left, from
which it is said that fewer calves than
the original number Of bulls in the
shipment have come Native cattle
are small; the original intention was
to breed size and beer into them by
crossing them with the Hcrcfords.

TUESDAYS ELECTIONS

It does not appear to The Times
that there is any special political sig.
nifcance in Tuesdays elections gen.
orally. The one exception we note to
this rule is the Kansas City election
where the entire campaign was waged
along purely political lines. The re-
suit there was generally supposed to
mean either an endorsement or re-
pudiation of the present Republican
administration in this State.
This was perhaps the reason for
Gov. Hyde's active participation in
that campaign, as he was absent from
the State capitol several days in put.
ting up the most strenuous battle OF
which he is capable in behalf of he
Republican ticket in that city.
The opposition also turned their
guns directly on Gov. Hyde, and SEN
ator Reed stated repeatedly that the
Governor should be impeached. Both
sides claimed a substantial majority
up to the closing of the polls. The
overwhelming victory for the Demo-
cratic ticket indicates that the peo-
pie of that city generally agree to the
proposition that Hyde should be i'm
peached.
That is practically all the political
significance The Times is able to see
in Tuesdays election results. But is
it not enough? 1t indicates that the
Kansas City folks have joined the
rapidly increasing majority of Mis-
sourians in the realization of their
woeful handicap of real Governor,

A BRAIN STORM DE LUKE

The Pennington News of March
31st, in the first column of the first
page, carries an article headed:
"About Jury Selections" Truly this
is wonderful outburst of spasmodic
journalism that reflects the narrow
view of its writer, but is SANDER of
such poisonous character as to de-
serve the most severe rebuke. No one
can read the article without seeing
plainly the attitude of the author with
regard to the question of law en-.
forcement. The attitude of every
right thinking mind is one of obedi-
.enee 10 the law, anu the redress OF al,
infractions thereof, willfuly commit
ted, and this without fear, favor OF
affection. 5nt 80
