The Litchfield

pROF. ROBERTS, one of the most no
ted agriculturists in the west estima
ted $250 as a conservative figure for the
value of the manure produced during sev
en months on a farm carrying 4 horses, 20
cows, 50 sheep and 10 pigs. 'We might
fill half a page with figures on the value
of manure to the farmer, but the principal
thing is to get it on to the soil so as to get
the full value of it. The Litchfield Man
ure Spreader does this. Hundreds of farm
ers have foumd this out to their complete
satisfaction. Let us show you the machine.

Probably no newspaper, periodical
or magazine in the country is doing
more sincere and effective work for
reform of many of the admitted exist
ing evils than Collier's Weekly, and
this is what it has to say of the rail
road subject:
The movement for fixing rates
actually through a commission,
as constrasted with regulating
them, has lost ground of late. The
President, responding to the
public, has blackened speed In the
onslaught lie was making. We
have never cared much to see the
rate-fixing power in absolute form
in a small group of government
appointees. A sign of the trend
was given when the organ of the
locomotive engineers came out
against the scheme. A railway is
a thing peculiarly requiring regu
lation. It ought to be a monopoly,
to avoid wasteful duplication,
and yet unless there is competi
tion the roads will treat the peo
ple like so much dirt. Compare the
rival services between Chicago
and New York with the perform
ances of a fat monopoly like the
Boston & Maine, which owns leg
islatures and with impunity mal
treats the public in every known
way. But it is perfectly simply
to have monopoly and good ser
vice, by Government and State
supervision. Everything about a
railway ought to be subject to the
State, from rates to comfort, from
equal privileges to safety, but the
correct democratic principle is to
let the roads know what is expect
ed of them, and see that they per
form it—not for the state to step
in itself and uudertake the con
duct of the railway business.
So far as our information goes,
South Dakota, as a state. ha(s nothing
in sight for its good in a radical ad
justment of rates by a political com
mission—even under the supervision
of the honest Roosevelt—while it
stands to lose many concessions in fclie
way of long distance hauls to the
Chicago ana seaport markets, if there
is a way to protect the railroads
against the thieving rebates demand
ed by big shippers and the private
car trust, nine-tenths of the evils com
plained of will disappear.
The worst slam* at the big trusts
and the International Harvester com
pany in particular was made last week
in the Chicago courts by Rodney B.
Swift, formerly head of the experi
mental department of the McCormick
company. According to Swift's com
plaint, the McCormick branch of the
International alone has illegally
exacted from the railroads in rebates
a sum in excess or. $3,000,000. Since
September 1002 it is declared that the
International company has. through
its different branches, exacted from
nine railroads in illegal rebates about
$7,000,000. It is further declared in
the complaint that th vt harvesting
machines which now cost the con
sumer $125 can be produced for $57.
.lolin I). Rockefeller, who is spend
ing the summer at his magnificent
home, "Forest Ilill," Cleveland, is
becoming alarmed over the sensation
caused by the writings of Ida Tarbell
and Thomas Lawson and detectives
and guards fairly swarm about the
estate. No stranger is permitted to
ccme near th grounds and it is said
that the oil king is thinking of aban

We want to tell you right now that
we enjoy reading the Mitchell Gazette
and Redficld Press. The way "Billy"
LaFollette and Preacher Basford
wade into the "other fellows" over
the issues of the day is good for tired
eves and fagged brains. Rather than
forego the fun of it we'd stir 'em up
ou our own account and let them rip
the Gkatiiicup the back.
An Iowa woman has just died after
a lingering illness brought on by a
visit to a church oyster scoial last
winter. She happened to catch the
oyster in her plate of soup and swal
lowed it. Fact.
Mitchell has invited Pierre to make
an exhibit of Hughes county products
at the corn palace this fall and the
Pierre newspapers have accepted the
invitation. The hatchet is buried.
Since the Equitable investigation
developed the fact that your Uncle
Chauncey Depew was pulling out
$20,000 a year for simply being willing
to give advice if it was needed, and
who also succeeded in getting a loan
of $200,000 for the Depew Investment
company on security afterward taken
in by the Equitable at a loss of $150,
000 on the loan, there is a great yell
going up for his resignation as one of
the directors. So far, however, no
body has said anything about Uncle
Chauncey's resignation from the
United States senate, where grafters
are thicker than bees in a hive.
A recent cartoon in the Sioux City
Journal shows the bank officials steal
ing the building and all, while the
bank examiner is seen through a win
dow just placing his o. k. on his re
port. It was a good cartoon. If there
is a bigger farce than another in these
days of rotten finauce it is the so-call
ing bank examinations, and the sooner
the reallv sound and conservatively
managed banks go in and get a bank
insurance law on the statute books
the better for them as well as the
public.
The state census shows that Mit
chell is the third city- in the state
this side of the Missouri, and within
150 people of being the second city,
and the fourth city in the entire
state. The claims Mitchell made dur
ing the capital campaign for itself as
a rapidly crowing city have been fully
met by facts.
Lieut. Peary finally succeeded in
raising the $S0,000 he wanted and has
started for the north pole. What in
blazes a man with $80,000 wants of a
north pole beats your uncle Olate.
A libel suit in Kansas against a
newspaper resulted in a verdict for
tl\e plaintiff of fifty cents. It was a
compromise, nine of the jury stand
ing out for thirty cents.
Goodbye, "Dad"Osbon take keer of

"Men Are Such Fools"
This opinion is shared by nine
women in ten when the discussion of
men's dress comes up. When the
mercury is climbing out of the top of
the tnbe a woman will come down
town looking as cool and comfortable
as a lilly in the morning dew at sun
rise, while a man will go about mop
ping his face and looking like the
boiled lobster he is.
The subject comes to mind through
a set of four cartoons in a recent is
sue of the Sioux City Journal, under
the capition "A Midsummer Night's
Dream." The subject is a distracted
appearing man, clad in a suit of pan
jamas. trying to sleep through a
torrid night. The chances are that
the poor devil donned the same pan
janias that he wore last winter when
the mercury was 150 degrees below
zero, and more than likely over a suit
of sweat-soaked underwear to boot.
That's just like a man.
What under the heavens men can
find in comfort in a suit of panj imas
—winter or summer—as compared
with a roomy comfortable, easy-fitting
night shirt, is something we can't
understand. It's a l'ool fad. The last
of '"Ding's" four cartoons showed the
ninnyhammcr sitting half up in bed,
as the morning sun was rising, the
shirt of the panjamas rolled up under
his ears and the "pants" half way
down his legs like a kid's swaddling
cloth. No wonder he looked liked a
wild man—and felt worse. We had
the same experience one hot summer
night when caught away from home
without a grip and a Iriend loaned us
a suit of the blamed things. We
swore then, after a most miserable
night, that if anyone ever got a bath
ing, suit on us away from the seashore
again, they would know it.
The most comfortable garment a
man can wear in sleep on a hot night,
after a cold sponge bath, is a fine
cambric or an all linen (particularly
the latter) night shirt, cut rather low
in the neck and without a collar. And
a man who would discard such a gar
ment, after once trying it, for a suii
of East India panjamas (tor that's
where the things originated—in a
snake county) doesn't know enoii'.'h to
come i:i viier. it rains.
