Perhaps the canal could be made
to serve both purposes.

Little Greece threatens to swal
low that speck of an island, Crete,
and has sent her prince with a
flotilla of boats to aid in the feat.
Little and insignificant as the pow
er of Greece is she has the courage
to tackle the monster inhuman
Turkey, when that power imposes
on the Christian subjects of the lit
tle island. The population ot
Crete is mostly in sympathy with
Greece, and the Greek church pre
dominates. Tho Mohammedans,
though fewer in numbers, are
seeking (o murder those Christians,
with the Turkish soldiers and offi
cers at their back. The ripple in
international affairs lias been
spreading anti all Europe seems to
be on the alert ready for war over
the incident. England seeks to
block the game, but the command
er ot the Greek forces bluntly tells
her that he shall obey orders and
perlorm the work he was sent to do.
Gov. Adams is entirely justified
in uttering a protest against the
blundering stupidity exhibited by
the Legislature in drafting bills
for enactment. It would seem
that with the largest force ever em
ployed to aid the members in do
ing their work it ought to be pos
sible to present the governor with
an enrolled copy of a bill free from
glaring errors of form, if not of
substance, but I he governor’s letter
to Lieut. Gov. Brush shows that
this seemingly easy feat has not yet
been accompli-lied. The trouble
of course lies in the tact that ap
pointments to clerkships in the
Legislature arc based on the theory
of personal or political rewards,
and not on the fitness of the ap
pointers for the work to be done.
A great many of tho persons em
ployed at high wages to do engross
ing and enrolling are hardly able
to write their own names, and it
is doubtful if there are two in the
entire lot who could correctly copy
any bill. It is high tune lor the
adoption of a higher standard of
fitness in such matters, but we are
not sanguine enough to expect any
such desirable reformat the hands
of the Eleventh General Assembly.

Much sport is made over the
allowances by the legislature of
an interpreter for representative
Montez. The interpreter draws
big pay and it is said cannot talk A
mericanas well as Montez himself.
The house ofrepresentatives knew
at the time of making the place
for the interpreter that it was a
clean steal, but Montez had to be
paid lor staying with the Mclun
levitesnnd demanded this position
for a friend. Here is an item re
cently' taken lrom tho Rocky
Mountain News:
“My friend Montez, who worked
the house for the employment of
an interpreter, forgot himself in
his enthusiasm on the election
contest cases tlie other day and
made a rattling speech in English
without an accent. Mr. Montez
took his friend out in the cloak
room and delivered Ins speech
over in Spanish so the interpreter
would not miss any of the good
things that were being offered in
English during the proceeding.* of

esting things that are going on.”
It is about time our courts, law
making bodies and public affuirs
be run on an American plan
Laws should prohibit a man from
holding office who cannot under
stand the English language. A
man should be qualified in this as
well as any other respect. The
case in question is a farce, as the
man interpreted for understands
and speaks English better than
the man who does the interpreting.
In view of the great develop
ment ol the Arkansas valley and
a possible oyer production of such
staples as has heretolore been pro
duced it would seem natural that
her farseeing business men should
seek to develop something more
profitable then allalfa and tho
cereals. The production ot sugar,
by the growing of beets is advo
cated, but with little enthusiasm.
The citizens do n,ot seem to real
ize the importance of this indus
try. If they would stop to think
that we import over SO % ot the
sugar that we consume and that
our consumption is daily increas
ing, also that an overproduction
would be impossible, they would
give more ear to those who have
sought to establish sugar lactones
and are engaged in the business.
Tiie profit is greater than supposed.
With declining prices for farm
work, which must come with the
continued single standard, the
growing of beets for sugar will be
one of the most profitable ventures.
With the completion of the deep
water harbors along the Texas
coast comes the idea of the entire
west importing its goods direct in
stead of paying a bonus to New
York and Chicago, in the capacity’
of “middlemen.” The idea is tak
ing hold in a substantial way nntF
action is being taken by tiie board**
of trade in the cities. Chicago dj|
already becoming alarmed Qijfl
the situation, and no doubt
take active steps to place goods
cheaper in order to prevent the es
tablishment of a permanent trade
with Galveston and other Texas
deep water points. The temper of
the west is somewhat rutiled how
ever, over the treatment ot its in
terests by Chicago and the eastern
cities in demonetizing silver and
ruining the profits derived from its
productions, and in the mood they
now are little sympathy will be
felt lor Chicago’s loss of trade.
The result of our merchants doing
their own importing via Texas
should be to lower prices in the
west and give our merchants just
as good profits, besides building
up a state and locality in sympa
thy with our interests.

I read in tin* Christian Standard
that Miss A.,M. Fritz,Station A. St.

for one and found it so useful that
i showed it to my friends, and made
$13.00 in two hours, Liking orders
tor the spoon. The hook spoon is a
household necessity. Ii cannot slip
into the dish hr cooking vessel, be
ing held in t.he place by a hook on

that housekeepers have needed ev

A Dandy Windmill, Make it Yourself.
I have a neighbor that made one
of tho people’s Windmills, and I
have been watching it closely; it is
the best mill 1 have ever seen and
anyone can make one for less than
$lO. lam going to make two im
mediately and don't see why every
larmer cannot have a windmill
when he cud make it himself for so
little money. The mill is durable,
powerful and runs easily. Any
person can get diagrams and com
plete directions by sending IS two
cent stamps to Francis Oasev, St..
Louis, Mo., and anv active man can
undoubtedly make money any
where putting up mills for others,
and I see no use of paying SSO or
SOO for a mill when you can make
one just as good for $lO.

For Bronchitis
“1 never realized the good of a medi

months, during which time 1 have suf
fered Intensely from pneumonia, followed
by bronchitis. Alter trying various rem
edies without benefit, 1 began the use of
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, and Uie effect
has been marvelous, a single dose re
lieving me of choking, and securing a
good night’s rest.”—T. A. Higginbotham,

La Grippe
"J-ast Spring 1 was taken down with la
grippe. At times 1 was completely pros
trated, and so diftlcult was my breathing
that tny breath seemed as If confined In
an Iron cage. I procured a bottle of
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, and no sooner
had 1 began taking it than relief fol
lowed. I could not believe that the ef
fect would be so rapid.”—W. U.Williams,

Lung Trouble
“For more than twenty-five years, 1
was a sufferer from lung trouble, attend
ed with coughing s- severe at times ns to
cause hemorrhage, the paroxysms fre
quently lasting three or four hours. I
was induced to try Ayer’s Cherry Pec
toral, and after taking four bottles, was
thoroughly cured. I can confidently
recommend this medicine.”—Franz Hof
