The U. H. court lias just rendered a
decision that the interstate commerce
commission cannot limit charges on
railroads. Now let the decisiou come
that legislatures cannot pass a maxi
mum freight law, and the thing will be
fixed. Gradually our highest courts are
sliding into the hands of corporations
and trusts just as they once slid into
the bands of slave owners and slave
drivers. Rich men, corporations and

treasurer who lends it.

. that the first week in June will witness the most sensational Dress
Goods Sale ever known in the west. This has been the most
successful Dress Goods . teason we have ever experienced, but
buying as we must buy in large quantities and far in advance of
the season, it is very difficult to gauge the exact quantities for the
needs of the season; so we find that we have a few more goods on
hand than we want, and we have decided to make prices that will
clear them out q'lickly and at a time when the goods are most
wanted.
We take all, every piece, yard and inch of high class Novelty Dress

We are disgusted at the way farmers
live and what they eat, its pork and
bread, grease and flys half the year
while they might live on the top shell
every day in the year and theexpenee
would not be one dollar more. All that
is needed is a little time, patience and
light labor at the ritiht time. Let one
of them stop at a three dollar hotel and
the first thing they order will be a com
twf and cabbage, ham and eggs, spring
chicken on toast and custard pie. They
will eat as though they had had noth
ing of the kind in a year, while every
body knows they could have such
things right along. Every farmer ought
to be kicked out 01 the prolesMion who
does not have a good vegetable garden
with small fruit attachments. If you
have not done it commence now by fenc
ing an acre of your best land. Make
the fence so tight that it will turn rab
bits and small pigs and so high that a
cow cant smell the cabbage over the top,
then hang the gate so it cannot be left
open. Cover the ground two or three
inches deep with rotten manure, plow it
in, put your asparagus, pie plant, berry
bushes and cherry trees arouud the out.
side, and leaving at least a half acre in
the center lor vegetables. Next year
plant twenty acres less corn and lay out
the work 011 your garden and you will
not be the loser.
I would not think of farmiuir with less
tti tin a Hundred liens and every year
raise two hundifd chicks. Yellow leg
chickens are jutt as good tor farmers as
for preachers. Eggs are irood eating
any time 01 the year. The ben feeds
upon hoppers, butts and worms that
impoverish iustead of enrich the farm
Following next to the garden aud hen-
ery come the cow. No farmer knows
how to live well without unlit, cream and
butter, two good cow are fresh lor
summer and the others for winter and
the cup of good living is full.

euough to feed two such worlds and cot

are under a cloud of depression aud
gloom, while other nations are pushing
ahead, extending their trade and rejoic
ing in the sunlight of prosperity. It is
not because we lack in energy, intelli
gence or ingenuity, it is not because
the people change their minds but party
bosses bring to bear new schemes to
fleece the people. A few years ago it as
claimed that capital should own labor,
man labor as well as horse labor. 1 his

this there was a heavy national indebt

the value ot this indebtedness as com

put the relation between money and
property back where it was. Our disease

A COSTLY ERROR.
Mistake Necessitates an Extra Session
ot the New Jetsty Legislature.
Governor Griggs otthe state of New
Jersey has issued a call for an extra ses
sion of the legislature ot New Jersey. It
was made neceaaary on account of an
error made by a stenographer Miss Mar
garet Williams who transcribed tbe
word "prohibited" as "provided" in a
resolution of the legielature submitting
a proposed constitutional amendment,
Intended to prohibit gambling and
ing in the state of New Jersey. The er
ror completely changed and reversed the
meaning of the propound amendment.
The governor has decided that it requires
an extra sexeiou with all the consequent
expense, In order to correct the error.
