JUDGE PHILIPS’ BIG FISH. .. t Caught a 135-Pound Tarpon in the Gulf of Mexico Recently. “There is no fishing in the world like the sport in the Gulf of Mexico, where they catch tarpon,” said Judge John F. Philips, recently in the Kausas City Star. Judge Philips, looking tanned and thoroughly rested, has just returned from a fishing trip to the coast of Texas. “I surprised the na tives by catching six of those big fel lows. The largest weighed 135 pounds and measured 6 feet 10 inches in length. It took me an hour to land him after I had made the strike. “The tarpon is caught on a heavy line and a specially strong rod and reel. I had just told my boatman that I would go in for dinner and we had just started to put back to the shore from where we had been fishing, per haps a mile out to sea, when I hooked the big fish. By playing with him, reeling him in and maneuvering back and forth for an hour I finally pulled i him into shallow water. The boatmen then leaped out in water up to his waist and. striking the fish with a gaff hook, hauled him up on the beach.” Judge Philips was a member of the fishing party which accompanied S. W. Moore, general counsel of the Kansas City Southern railway, on a trip about ten days ago. The party left the car at Rockport on the coast of Texas and went by boat to Tarpon island, which is near the fishing grounds. “Catching tarpon is strenuous exercise,” added Judge Philips, “but as a sport it is not equaled.” NO VETO POWER IN OHIO. Abolished by Constitutional Conven tion Early in Century. Ohio is the only state in which the governor does not possess the power of veto, according to the Brooklyn Eagle. The story dates back nearly 100 years to the time when Arthur St. Clair was the territorial governor ot Ohio. In those days the fee for a mar riage license in Ohio was $2, and ac cording to the law such a fee went into the pockets of the governor. The general assembly finally decided to repeal the statute, and not desiring to deprive the governor of this particular source of revenue, two bills were passed, one repealing the law permit ting the governor to annex the mar riage license fee and the other increas ing his salary a proportionate amount. But the governor, with a keen eye for the main chance, signed the bill rais ing his salary and vetoed the bill de priving him of the marriage fees. The ■ general assembly passed the vetoed bill over the governor's protest, but Mr. St. Clair was sustained by the leg islative council. There was a general mix-up for a while and later the con stitutional convention met and abol ished the veto power. Fifty years later, in 1852, another constitutional convention was held, but all attempts to incorporate a veto power into the state constitution were defeated. • The Wealthy Pauper. Upon an office stool he sat. And figured with his pen— HI* pen was new, his years were few. His weekly wage was $10. But still he scribbled away patiently.

Tet. while the songs of springtime The souls of lovers stirred. The clinking of the dollars was The only sound he heard! And summers fled, and winters. And love came straying by; He closed his ears, as one who hear* A Siren's melody; And out among the meadows There caroled many a bird— But the clinking of the dollars Was the only sound he heard.

But trouble not his ear; And even the Choir celestial Won't wake the senses blurred By the clinking of the dollars— The only sound he heard! —Cleveland Leader. “No News to Speak Of.” A country correspondent of the Adams Enterprise sends in these in teresting items: “There is no news to speak of in this here settlement.

In line with the classic case of the j oyster shippers, cited by President Hadley of Yale University in his book on Railroad Transportation, is the case of the Aroostook potato growers brought by President Tuttle of the Boston and Maine Railroad befoie the Senate Committee cn Interstate Com merce. Nothing could better show how a railroad works for the interest of the localities which it serves. A main dependence of the farmers of the Aroostook region is the potato crop, aggregating annually eight to ten million bushels, which find a mar ket largely in Boston and the adjacent thickly settled regions of New Eng land. The competition of cheap water transportation from Maine to all points along the New England coast keeps railroad freight rates on these pota toes always at a very low level. Potatoes are also a considerable out put of the truck farms of Michigan, their normal market being obtained in and through Detroit and Chicago and other communities of that region. Not many years ago favoring sun and rains brought a tremendous yield of potatoes from the Michigan fields. At normal rates and prices there would have been a glut of the custom ary markets and the potatoes would have dotted on the farms. To help the potato growers the railroads from Michigan made unprecedentedly low rates on potatoes to every reachable market, even carrying them in large quantities to a place so remote as Bos ton. The Aroostook growers had to reduce the price on their potatoes and even then could not dispose of them unless the Boston and Maine Railroad reduced its already low rate, which it did. By means of these low rates, making possible low prices, the potato crops of both Michigan and Maine were finally marketed. Everybody eats potatoes, and that year every body had all the potatoes he wanted. While the Michigan railroads made rates that would have been ruinous to the railroads, had they been applied to the movement of all potatoes at all times, to all places, they helped their patrons to find markets then. The Boston and Maine Railroad suffered a decrease in its revenue from potatoes, but it enabled the Aroostook farmers to market their crop and thereby to obtain money which they spent for the varied supplies which the railroads brought to them. If the making of rates were subject to governmental adjustment such radical and prompt action could never have been taken, because it is well established that if a rate be once reduced by a railroad company it cannot be restored through the red tape of governmental proce dure. If the Michigan railroads and the Boston and Maine Railroad had been subjected to governmental limi tation they would have felt obliged to keep up their rates as do the railroads of France and England and Germany under governmental limitation and let the potatoes rot.- E hnn «\ % ~ For every mean man who dies at least two more are born.
