That TloRpbirry was In need of a

tty Tn Other respects wo ar a f.Voal-
y favored country, but. prodigality
has gotten into our hlood and we
outdo the world In wastefuln"rts. Our
spendthrift hubltH costs us billions
of dollars annnallv. Home statistic
ian has estimated that there is a loss
to the producers and consumers of
farm products to the amount of eight
hundred milllrns of dollar per an
num bwauro of bad country rondw
that make necessary from two to four
trips where one would suffice wi:h

Under the caption of "The Source
of Law," and discussing a question
of supreme court derision, the (re
Rnnlau says: "Rut the tribunal of last
resort can make the law whal It wish
es the law to he, Right along
for many years! there has been leg
islation that has dlst Incl ly violated
the constitution. Hut the supreme
coift has upheld it, even as to the
salaries of Its own members. The
supreme court being supremo, decides
ns It wishes." If this utternace had
been from the Appeal to Reason or
some ot her rabid pu b Ilea t ion, It
would bo considered "treason to the
king." ruder our form of govern
ment the people are sntiposed to be
the source of all law. The court has
Its function tu the administration ot
the lnw enacted by representatives of
the people In the legislature. If the
leglslatuie errs, enacts laws unconsti
tutional, the court must set it right.
For the court, then. In disregard 'his
source of law and render derisions
suited to its own desires, is nothing
moro than anarchy. This, then, being
true. It Is about time that the source
of law, the people, take the matter
In hand and denl a lesson to the court
that, will establish a precedent not to
he ignored by future judicial bodies.
A move is on foot, having Its origin
in Spokane, to better th service on
the rural routes throughout tb( coun
try. Attention Is called to the fact
that rural mail carriers receive not to
ViOxcwd ?75 per month for covering a
Tlally route of 24 intlen, and some of
them receive less than this sum. Two
-,Ti0VUt?H fln? required to perform this
service, but no allowance Is made for
iced, nud that consciutently many
competent men are kept out of work.
It Ih further shown that city carriers,
whose routes are much shorter, but
who mav bo compelled to use n horse,
nnd cart, receive extra compensation)
Tor ine seep or ineir norges. iumuh
for the rural carrier will lie souuht
by congressional net Ion. It Is a good
move. The farmer Is entitled to the

Ycstfrfday was Washington's birth
day. Jt Ih nil InterestiiiK coincidence
tjiat the sninn month that saw the
birth of the Jollier of his Conn try
gave us also, (he only man who Is wor
I thy to n Heat, beside hlin on tho glory
smitten summit of his fame.
1 Washington and Lincoln. As long
as America endures those names will
be remembered with gratitude and
reverence nnd love. And however
great, and glorious we may become as
a nation the names of both will al
ways add luster to the pages of our
history, Washington! In the midst'
of disunited colonies, a country In
anarchy, an Inefficient congress, a
disorganized ami renomous arm"
came the captain with a mlghtv ' 'f.'1
and singling out the centre' - , :
- mm of m.
spiracles tlu
Vouid have swept him
i"iiu
no scene. He heard God say:
"I i tired of kings,
l ftuffer them no more."
For a quarter of a century he mov
ed hoi ore in Mruggllpg countryman,
their pillar of cioud by day and of fire
by ni.ght This was first and last his
haUlo cry: "Let us raise a standard
io which the wise and the gomd can
repair. The event Is tn t he hand
of find."
Through all tho perils of tbe rev
olution, through all the dangers of
the criticil period which suc-eded It,
he led his murmuring people to a
union in ITS" of thirteen independent
sovereign states.
And now lndiold Lincoln come forth
iion it). stale of huimti action! i
Soutln'iii trade held the whip over
cfingress and th supreme court alike.
Klorlda. Alsbnma. Mississippi and
Louisiana are hurrying after South
Cnrollna to fling themselves over Hie;
precipice, and Texns Htatuls shivering
on the brink. Many of the depart
ments of .government are tn the hands
of southern sympathizers. The treas
ury Is emnty. public, credit low. The
arsenals have been ravaged. The ,
armv Is but a little guard, distributed 1
at distant points. The navy Is small
and scattered. Timid tomrues clamor
for pence at any price. Congress cm
harassed htm. bis party deserted him.
The cabinet, gives him scant respect.
Politicians scheme openly for his
downfall. Everybody but Lincoln
miss the real issue, and while all Am
erica Is tu a panic, the north crying.
"Lo, I here." and the outh crying.
"Lo, there." he comes forth and takes
his plac" In the Pantheon of world
heroes bv singling out from the wild
confusion of the time the central idea
and never relaxing his grip upon U
until his hold Is loosed bv death.
"My paramount object In this .drug
gie." be said. "Is to save the t'r.lon."
And In saving tbe Tnlon be saved for
his country and tbe world at large
the peace which Washington had es
tablished In the western hemisphere.
And when be fell in whirlwind he
went down as when u kingly cedar
green with hough goes down with a
gro'it shout upon lb'' bills.
Washington and Lincoln! The one
glorifying his country through n
whole generation of public service:
the other piloting her detlnles
through tbe fearful storm and ron
f lift of n great civil war, lifting him
self from the status of an nbseur
politician tr the full mnlmity and
splendor of foremost statesman of his
age. Devotion to duty nnd awful re
sponsibility solemnized the face of
one' but the other remained to the
InsMaughtcHovhig. gniial nnd boy
ish, but the laugh gi'ftW 9 boister
ous and less frequent.
The sorrowful eyes looked out more
sorrowfully, from their ravernous
depths fls vast responsibilities nnd
suffering did their fell work. And
vet as we look upon the portraits of
Washington and Lincoln, we see
brooding over the stately crivlty of
tbe one and over tbe profound solem
nity of the other that peace which the
one established and the other snv
for America, nnd It is not the pence
of death, but the pence which indi
cates Hon energies harnessed and sub
dned, and which Is. In reality, powci
