P. G. Knox, the new attorney gener-
al of the United States, was appointed
at the suggestion of j. Pierpont Nor
gan. He was the attorney of the
steel trust, and received a salary of
$50, GOO. His salary as attorney gener-
al will not be one-fifth as much. Who
m likes up the difference? And what
is Knox expected to do for this extra
compensation? Can j. Pierpont Nor
gan afford to have Knox appointed
attorney general of the United States?
Will not this action unnecessarily
iaflame the people, and cause pOpu-
listic doctrines to flourish? In the
fat years, look out for conditions that
will prevail during the lean years.

Would Tax It's Topcrs.

Kansas has Carrie Nation and her
Ratchet, but Arkansas will have her
topper tags if the bill passed by the
senate of that state becomes law.
When it comes to freak legislation
it is doubtful if the Sunfower state
can hope to equal this measure which
proposes to license every dram drinker
in the state at the rate of So a year.
The bill makes it unlawful for any
person to drink intoxicating liquors as
a beverage until he takes out the
license and contributes the So to the
state treasury. AS every dram drink
er will not care to produce his license
every time he INDUCES in alcoholic
stimulation it will be necessary, of
course, to furnish him with ''toper's
tag" duly numbered and counter
signed the same as dog tag, which
may be worn in a conspicuous place as
evidence of the right to drink under
state authority.-C Chicago Record.

Tom L. johnson made a spectacular
entry into the mayors office at Cleve-
land last week, taking possession under
peculiar circumStances-and thereby
hangs a tale of defeated chicanery and
blasted hopes of diScredited city Off
cials. At 1923 o'clock last Thursday
morning Mr.. Johnson walked into the
Office of Mayor Farley and demanded
the keys to the office and to the desk
of the mayor. Taking off his coat and
hat, he announced that he was mayor
of Cleveland, and that once more Mr..
Farley was private citizen. Now it
IS an unwritten law that mayOr-elect
shall not take Office until April 10, but
Mr.. johnson had purpose in his
action. When he was conducting his
campaign Mayor Farley drew up an
ordinance which sought to turn the
entire water front over to the Penn
sylvania company. The measure pass
ed the council and Mayor Farley was
about to ratify the agreement between
the city and the Pennsylvania COM
pany, when Mr.. johnson denounced
the ordinance as gigantic steal and
secured temporary injunction re-
straining Mayor Farley from signing
1t. The injunction expired at IL
O'Clock last Thursday morning. Early
in the morning Mr.. Johnson was in
formed that Mayor Farley intended to
rltify the agreement. He went direct
ly to the board of elections, where the
canvasSing board was making the Off
CT u count. He hurried the board I'D,
i'd at 1920 he was handed his certifi-
ste of election. In the office of the
city clerk he offered his bond for &c.
900, and Attorney Mooney swore him
in as mayor. He reached the office of
Mayor Farley just thirty-Seven min
utes before the expiration of the tenn
porary injunction, and won his point.
When the restraining hand of the
court was lifted, Mr.. Farley had
passed into the innOcuous desuetude
of private life, and man pledged by
nature and desire to serve the public
had well in hand the reinS of official
powcr.-FarmerS' Voice.
