The capital stock of th Merchants' company was $200,000. This tompany 'ia addition operating an electric ttghring plant has also conducted a central heating system, similar to the on operated ia this city by (he Huntington Light Fnel Company. From th heating plant alone the Merchants' com rany mad a profit last year of 940,000.

A few months ago the epmpany paid a 50 per cent stock dividend, and has bees paying 6 per cent ea the common atock quarterly. On man who held stock ia th Merchants', company refused to sell his stock to th consolidated company stating as his reason that it would aot bo fair th merchanta and dtisens of Lafayette. v.r Mayor George K. Durgan of Lafayette is incensed at th consolidation' and reorganisation of the Senate, which has just been accomplished, insures tte control of that body by the progressive dement in th Democratic party that is, by the genuine supporters an friends of the President one of the great obstades in the path of the tariff reform has been removed, pro changes in th Senate rules win operate to strengthen stin furtlier the held of th progressive Democrata T.ie old steering committee is to' be. shorn of much ofits power.

It win no longer appoinUhe chairmen of the various committees, as these win be chosen by the committees. If a committee meet ing is and th chairman refuses to call it, it. may be called by "a majority th Democratic members. So, too, conference committees are to be selected by the Democratic majority of the committee having the matter in charge. And the steering "committee is to be chosen: in the same way, and ttot, as heretofore, by the caucus chairman.

Appointment mad by the steer ing committee to fin vacancies on Senate committees must.be passed on by the J': In ether words, the control of th Stnate will pass' front the famous "inner dicle" to the Senate itself. And the Senate, and it committees, are controlled by the progressive Democrats. Thuf the situation is much improved. To be lure, individual reactionaries may make some trouble, but their power for harm has been greatly lessened. And the path has been made smoother for a real reform th tariff.

That th House will do its fun duty is taken for granted. Its leader, Mr. Underwood, is an able man, sincer tariff reformer. "He and the President have it is believed, complete understanding. But there was fear of trouble ia the Senate.

People remembered how it bad wrecked tariff reform back In the Cleveland days, and there was a very sutural fear that history would repeat itself. But much has been don in th Ust few days to improve th situation. Many believe that th Democrats of sou nouses win co operate loyany with the Preddent ia putting through a rcviaioa ot th tariff this time, Certainly the outlook today I much better than It was a week age.

Uvea, saytng "vnnatmas oomes but I one a year" Is attributed to Thomas Tusser, a medieval poet (1 24 lCIO), who seems to have been strong' oal epigrams. The same idea may have occurred to others, but Tusser gave it expression. He was classed aa aa agricultural poet partly because he had not much, education and partly because be treated simple themes, which he 'understood la a plain and simple way.

Tussor had aa ear for music, and served to order as chor ister la some churches of his day. His first publication. was entitled "A Hundred Good Points of Husband rie," and later he published "A Hundred Good Points ef Uusbandrl Late 1 ly Married Unto a Hundred Good Points of Housewifery," and still later this waa amplified into "Fire Hundred Good Points of Husbandry Unit ed to as Many of Good Housewifery." Reprints of these boks are. still extant wita an autobiography of the au thor ia Terse. Southey, himself a critical poet, characterised Tuaser as a good, honest homely, useful old rhymster." Borne ot Tusser'a phrases have passed into proverbs, Leoklnj te the Future.
