Disappearing States Rights.

That the Federal Government is more and moro assum-
ing control of interstate matters apparent day
A few years ago when President Roosevelt sent fol
the officers of the miners union and the of the
coal mines and ordered them to agreement
in the Pennsylvania coal mines strike he criticized
from end of the country to the other and charged
with usng higher power than he possessed president
Today it is thing for the federal government
to intervene in strikes in fact it nteenes a.,acst
every strike whether it be large small One of the
first things side does when strike is contemplated
or has been called to send representatives to Wash
ngton to confer with the president the head of the
Department of Labor with view of having the force of
the national exercised toward bringing about
a settlement.
Just the national government is interested in the
Meat Cutters strike and in the coal strike in Colorado
and recently assumed jurisdiction in the matter of the
closing of railroad only fourteen miles long and exist
ing wholly in San Juan county, Colorado
Certainly when the federal government reaches the
point where fourteen-mile railroad existing wholly in
one county and in state thousand miles from the
national capital commands its attention it is assuming
many of the duties and functions that in former
were considered wholly within the authority of the state
the county.
Not only is the federal government assuming control
in strike matters and railroad matters but in many
other of the incidents of life There national
mobile laws that must be obeyed there national
shipping laws that have to be followed, and in fact the
national government is lesisatng almost every form
of law known to state government
Just where the states control ends and the nation g
control begins has always been question of dispute but
with the onward march of the national laws the states
control is getting pushed farther and farther back and
if it keeps up the time is far distant when state
lines will but little to the national govern
ment than county lines mean to the state governments
at the present time.

HAD STUDIED HIS SUBJECT
Little Bobby's Essay Showed He Knew
Practically All There Was to
Know About Doors.

Little Bobby Jones was told to write
an essay on Door" and the effort
which he sent In was as follows:
Most houses have all the doors
that they need, and nc house Is COM
plete without at least one. The two
main differences between a door and
a gate is: first, their opposite lOca-
ton; and, second, that people have
much less respect for a gate, and
would rather kick it than knock OF it.
But a gate Is more useful than a
door because 1t does everything that
a door can do, and, besides that, it
can be climbed over, and often Is.
"The door handle Is Il small but i'm
portant part Of the door which peo-
pie never appreciate until it comes
off. Most people never notice the door
handle unless 1t is brought to their
notice on account Of having jam
spread all over 1t.
doors are great things to give peo-
pie privacy, and would give them still
more If 1t wasn't for the keyholes."-

HOW BOOKS ARE DISlNFEcTEn
Method Employed in France Is Said q
Be the Most Successful Vet
Devised.

The danger Of contagion from b0oas
that have been in the hands Of par
sons suffering from various diseases
has led to the invention of methods at
disinfecting, of which none appears d.
be more effective than hat devised
by a member Of the municipal council
of Paris.
This process consists Of two feap
lures. In the first place, the books,
are placed In a ~"beater," where .
strong current of air opens every eaEs
and an aspirator sucks out the dizxE;
and deposits 1t In aseptic water. Tfaen
they are suspended In a disinfeetsrs
the covers being bent back and he'd.
by clips, so that the leaves are wfdefF
opened, and placed over a heater.
which for a long time subjects tinenx
to n temperature of 1877 degrees Fsfs
renheit. The paper is not damagsfa
and the efficiency of the process ID
said to be well demonstrated.

The Salary of M. Prs.

The salary Of an M. p. is f400 (nom-
inally $4,000 a year, on which he
has hitherto paid income tax. AS an
income this Is inadequate, but In the
days of anti-waste campaigns both
ministry and house of commons
shrink from increasing it. But the law
officers of the crown suddenly dis
covered that an M. P.'s expenses may
legitimately be reckoned against his
income, so that the poorer of them
will now pay no tax at all. A happy
issue, relieving the poor M. p, en-
dearing the government to his CRATE
full heart and throwing no odium on
parliament ministry, since 1t seems
that this Is the ordinary law and al
ways was, although no one suspected
1t till q few weeks ago.-New Re-

DECLARED HIMSELF AT ONCE
of Near Future and Gave Wife
Due Warning.

Visitors to Central park the other
day say a new angle of the family
pet out for an airing, reports the New
York correspondent of the Pittsburgh
Dispatch. A young woman was out
with her %variegated parrot. The bird
stalked majestically about the lawn,
but quickly came back and perched on
the young woman's finger whenever
she called. His comings and goings
to and from the finger gave the parrot
its prescribed exercise, whether 1t
wanted 1t or not.
The young woman didn't seem to
mind the crowd that gathered about
to watch. In fact she seemed rather
proud Of the attention she and the
bird were attracting. Jiggers, whose
family pet is a dog, happened along
with his wife and stopped to look.
II suppose the next thing" he re-
marked to his wife, will be that I'm
to take the canary up TO the park for
a walk. Right here | announce the

ProfiteerIna by a Doctor.

A medical man in Nagykoros, near
Budapest, recently charged 5000
crowns (present value e., but pur-
chasing value In a village about f6)
for a single visit to a patient who
lived not far from the doctors resi-
dence. This patient sued the doctor
for "pr%oiteering," but the court dis
missed the case. The plaintiff ap-
pealed, however, to a higher court,
which gave judgment against the doc
tor, on the ground that the demand
ing of an exorbitant fee for profess
sional services was to be regarded as
profiteering, and was therefore illegal.
1t was decided that mental workers
could fairly be considered as proiteers
in such cases; no exception could be
made concerning doctors, for although
the latter did not technically receive
"wages," their services came within
the accepted meaning of "work."
