Against Loot and Lust.
Chicago Journal editorial, May "a.

Chicago Journal editorial, May "a.
Socialism may be all right or all
wrong, or partly right and partly wrong.
Herbert Spencer thinks it is inevitable
and deplorable. However this may be-,
its progress in this country, as well as
in Europe, Is proof that no amount Of
persecution and abuse will destroy a
propaganda that holds as ideal state
controlled by other principles than those
of loot and lust. Give every honest man
a hearing. This is the lesson of the
day, brothers and sisters. Listen re-
spectfully to him If he speaks for better
men and better deeds, even if you have
difficulty in following the strange leaps
Of his imagination. The man who hopes
for the development Of the best traits
of human nature may be crazy, but he
is infinitely more loVable than the man
who goes craftily ahead, gambling on
the rule Of the worst traits.

PUBLIC OPINION


government like the railroads are con-
trolled. The people are becoming dis
posed more and more every day in this
direction.
Council Grove Republican: It was un-
doubtedly intended that the corporations
and mOnied interests should pay the
biggest part Of the new war tax. They
are the best able TO do 1t. However, the
express companies and most Of the other
corporations have raised their rates to
cover the extra penny or two and Jones
pays the freight. Manufacturers Of pro-
prietary medicines have raised their
wholesale rate to cover the increase,
while the retailer is Obliged to sell pat
ent medicines at their advertised price
and, of course, loses the amount Of the
tax. No American will complain at pay
ing his proportion Of the expenses Of
war, but the corporations, soulless or
otherwise, should be made to come down
with their portion as we'll.

STATE HOUSE.
The Assessors Returns Of Poultry
Show Large Numbers.
Great Satisfaction at the Good Fortune of tho
Signal Corps.

The returns from the cities and towns
OF the State. are being tabulated by
James Pottle, clerk at the State asses
sors' office, and though they are far from
complete at this time, they are very in
teresting.
The matter of the greatest interest is
that of the returns regarding the hens
and other poultry. in the State This is
the first year the assessors have attempt
Ell to ascertain the number, but it is now
required of them according to an act
passed by the last Legislature, not for
the purpose of taxation, but as a matter
of inquiry into the poultry industry of
the State
AS Mr. Pottle has announced before.
the returns will surprise everyone. and
the tabulation thus far is surely uphold
ing the statement. The result will show
the number of hens 50 great. that even
the greatest poultry fancier will marvel
at the number At the same time the
turkeys, ducks, and geese are not being
reported in very great numbers Some of
the counties Will show practically no
poultry of the latter kinds.
Hancock county was one of the first of
those TO be tabulate1 and in 26 towns and
three plantations, which have sent in
their returns, there have been reported
1911 hens with an estimated value Of
poultry produce of $66 5o979 The esti-
mattel value of eggs produced is $17, 1876 SO
making a total Of $751; g9G.12
The reports from 81 towns and five
plantations in Penobscot county. show n
total Of &c, 735 hens, and the total estj-
mated value is $50. 90 IS. or an average of
$'21 per hen, against Sill in Hancock
county.
Mr. Pottlc Will soon have the whole of
the counties tabulatcd, and then the es-
innate of the total in the State can be
made.

were also fully aware that the land
batteries were fighting outside the
city. Last Friday and Satur day it
would be difficult to explain how
anxious we were for news Of the sue
cess of our side during tie engage
ment. The little information the
Spaniards would give us could not
be relied upon.
"One thing that 1 found out in the
hospital was that large number OF
Spanish officers were wounded in
last Fridays fight, for many were
brought to the hospital to be treated.
Numbers of badly. aimed bullets
came into the hospital windows on
Friday, but I do not believe any one
was injured by them. Our quarters
there were very clean and comfort
able and fairly good. In fact, I have
no reason to complain of our treat
ment as prisoners of war. The
prejudice which the Spaniards show
ed against US during the first few
days soon wore away. We con-
Quoted ourselves poperly and simply

that not hand was raised to assist
in its launching. The occupants, so
near saved, were drowned like rats
when the ship, with an awful Kissing
sound, went down. So desperate
was the situation that an italian pas
senger drew his knife and made
direct at one who, like himself, was
endeavoring to reach the boats. I'm
mediately his action was initiated in
every direction. Knives were drawn
by half hundred of these selfish
men, and according to statements
OF some survivors, women were
stabbed like so many sheep.
The crew of the Cromartysbire
comment freely upon the fact that
only one woman was saved out of
three hundred. Nearly all the first
class passengers were lost, those
saved being steerags and sailors
Lacasse and his wife were in the
water eight hours, clinging to raft
before they were picked up by a
boat from Cromartyshire. They
lost everything but whet they stand
in, including money and valuables.
One passenger was going home to
France with his two children, his
wife having died month previous.
He was saved. but his two babies
went down with the ship.
Some of the boats, Lacasse says,
capsized and all on board were
drowned. The struggles, swishing
water and terrible screams of the
drowning made the situation an awe
one, never to be forgotten.
One man when the boat sank went
out of his mind and jumped to watery
grave. The officers bravely stayed
by their posts, going down with the
ship, which blew a long, mournful
whistle for assistance as she sank.
