THE Detroit Free Press wants to

A Des MoiNES man, in order to pro-
cure money for his sick wife, pawned
two gold teeth and his wooden leg, and
the Harrisburg, Va., News thinks mar-
riage is no failure under such circum-
stances. Still, when a man is driven
to such extremes he can hardly regard
it as a howling success.
Tue farmer bends the fre to none,
and is less disturbed by the world-wide
reign of graft and greed than any of
his fellows. His hair may be bushy,
his skin bronzed, but his eyes are clear,
his digestion is like that of a three-
| year-old mule, his conscience is like
the ether above his head, and his bank
account-as fat as his favorite shoat.
| May he live long and prosper, this son
of the soil, who is the balance wheel of
the -universe, exclaims an exchange,
| but it is more than can be truthfully
' said of some farmers. For instance.
i the one who puts all his largest apples,
and berries on top when
| marketing them, the one who works
tallow into his lard, converts stale
packed butter into rolls and sells it for
| fresh butter, and who resorts to all the
| petty, thievish tricks all too common
| among farmers. Great isthe honorable
| tismior and his honorable occupation,
| but not sll farmers are honest; not all
are decent ; not all are possessors of a
clear conscience ; not all of them are
rich, and not all of the ought to be.
Like all other classes, the farming class
is made up of good, bad and indifferent
people, and we do not believe in class
worship, no matter of what calling
’ | profession, art or avocation. True, we
could not get along without the farm-
| er, but wouldn’t the farmer have a
| hades of a time getting along without
| the mechanic, the laborer and the
| numerous other fellows he needs so
{ badly in his business? Many farmers
| all over this great land of ours are
| nearly out of business on account of
scarcity of farm labor, and when it
comes to singing the praises of the
{ farmer, that underestimated and lowly
{individual who is usually underpaid
| and known as the farm hand, is, as a
| rule, forgotten. Many a wealthy
| farmer owes his prosperity and his
{fame to a good-natured, faithful,
| strong farm hand working for the
| meager wages of $15.00 to $20.00 per
| month, from sunrise until after dark.

bed a companion. He is hurried away
to prison. He is brought into court,
tried and convicted. He sent to
prison for five years or for ten years, or
for life. All the while a young wife
and a half-dozen little children are left
without
support. They huddle in a corner of
the court room. They hear the law-
yers’ yawp. They listen to the verdict.
The case is closed. The young father

chains. The young family is turned

to itself, leaving the other to starve:
The mother dies of despair. The boys
grow up thieves. The girls grow up

classes are replenished. Is it not dam-
nable? Does not the society which
tolerates such monstrosities deserve
all the evils it entails upon itself? The
state has no right to take that man’s
labor from his wife and children and
give them no equivalent. It should
punish the guilty, not the innocent.
Every dollar that is diverted in this
way from the natural needs of the
helpless to the uses of the public, is
base blood money that should and does

THE FORVIONERS.
Foreigners To come to this country
pay no tax as long they are not
naturalized, but they are allowed in
the meanwhile to enjoy our privileges
the same as American citizens. Some
of them are not satisfied with riding in
the wagon, but they want to grab the
lines and do the driving. The money
they earn in crowding out American
laborers they straightway send home
to their native country, where a thou-
sand dollars makes a rich man, while we
pay the expenses when they are in-
jured, take care of the inebriates,
those who become insane, and spend
millions of dollars annually in court
trials and punishing the vicious whose
unlawful deeds land them into the
clutches of the law. There is an in-
justice done us somewhere, and the
man who solves the riddle and is in-
strumental in correcting the wrong
will be deserving of a seat among the
immortal. —Ex.

"WHEN HAZING BECOMES CRIME.
The C rnelleeilin Courier voices this
paper’s sentments exactly in the fol-
lowing editorial on the subject of haz-

“The brutal sport of hazing is being
frowned down in most American col-
leges, and with good reason. The per-
haps fatal injury of a Bellevernon boy
at the Ohio State University is an ex-
ample of the reason.

AT ROOKWOOD.
Star Man Gets Acquainted with
Editor Bach—Also Falls in with
| Colonel Ed. Werner—Stunts
! Performed with the Court
House Anaconda.
Last Saturday evening we had the
pleasure of making the acquaintance
af Prof. E. E. Bach, editor of the Som-
| erset County Leader, published at
Rockwood. We walked into his den at
about 9.30 p. m., taking him by com-
| plete surprise, while he and the busi-
ness manager, P. E. Weimer, were busy
| counting over about a bushel of money,
all of which we suppose was taken in
that day.
As soon as the two men looked up
and saw an intruder standing before
them at that hour of the night, they
naturally took us for a robber, and at
once Editor Bach grabbed all the
money, which was only editorlike, and
Weimer grabbed the office towel and
was about to break it over our cranium,
Just as the blow from the rigid and
dangerous weapon was about to de-
scend, we disclosed our identity, stat-
ing that we, too, were engaged in the
newspaper business, and consequently
had more money of our own than we
knew what to do with, and had no de-
sire to rob a wealthy fellow editor.
Then an introduction and a general
hand-shaking followed, and we found
both gentlemen very affable and
agreeable.
After.tecussing” and discussing var-
ious subjects for a time, we went out
with the editor to hunt up “Urie”
Werner, the ex-editor, who is still in
the employ of the Leader, and whose
valuable services as solicitor and
printer cannot well be dispensed with,
especially since Mr. Bach has recently
hired two all-fired good looking girls
to be drilled into the noble art of type-
setting. ‘‘Urie” is just the fellow to
have around when ladies are to be kept
smiling, which is essential to lady com-
| positors.
| After visiting all the saloons and
| failing to find “Urie,” we finally located
| him in a restaurant, where, true to his
| natural instincts, we found him gently
| crowding all manner of good things
[ into his face. With his usual hospi-
| tality and generosity, he invited us to
join him, but we had already filled up
on eatableg, ete., at Editor Bach’s ex-
pense, hence had to decline the invi-
tation. Later the three of us repaired
to the front porch of Hotel Hentz,
where yarns were exchanged until bed
time.
The next morning Tue Star man
went to Somerset and returned to Rock-
wood again on Monday morning, hav-
ing the good fortune to fall in with our
old friend Colonel Edward®H. Werner,
en Of course, after reaching
Rockwood, the colonel went with us to
the Leader office. and few minutes
later both of us went up street in
company with Editor Baeh. The
colonel conducted us to a private room
in which his court house anaconda is
kept, and in a few minutes all were
performing stunts with it. The ana-
conda, so the colonel informed us, was
imported from the King’s Gate, at
Dublin, Ireland, and is said to be the
only kind of serpent that good old
Saint Patrick did not drive out of the
Emerald Isle.

route.
a
house anaconda is an
agreeable kind of “varwmint” if you
know how to handle it. It is brown in
color and looks very “stout,” but is not
regarded as dangerous. However, not
but
being used to handling it, [it got ob-
| streperous for Tue Star man and blew
froth all over him. Then Colonel Ed-
{ ward had to show us how to handle the
|.darned anaconda. We didn’t get bit
by it, but no doubt would have if we
had fooled with it long enough.
We quit in time, however, and will
| say in conclusion that if a fellow can’t
{ have a good time with the gentlemen
mentioned, he can’t have it with any-
body.
