A partisan Chicago paper criticises
Rev. Shelton because Rev. Shelton
criticlses party politics, The paper al
legos that parties In this land Of a free
people always stand for principles and
in order to be true to his principles a
man must be true to his party. Now
that is an elegant line Of reasoning for
a Hanna or q Crocker. Because 10y
atty to q party means also loyalty to a
boss. The trouble with this "princi-
pie" argument IS that party leaders
change principles for the party 80 Of
ten In order to meet emergencies, "
and party "expedlents" that by follow
ing u party o man Is very apt to vote
against himself once every four years.
At least this Is the history of the re-
publican party Of late years and 1t bids
fair to become the history Of the demo-
cratic party, A man had better be
sure Of his princlples and then see
whether his party represents them.

THE great street railroad system Of
Kansas City Is the Metropolitan. This
corporation became 80 rank that q
grand jury finally gave II an investiga-
tion on the charge of jury briblng.
Since the results Of the investigation
became known the company has
changed It's policy in regard to damage
suits. Formerly It seems to have been
lis policy never to pay q damage claim,
Now 1t has acknowledged its infamy
by settling out Of court over $50 Of
these cases. The World has also
shown how this corporation has
also resorted 10 all the subtler methods
Of driblng public officials through the
bestowal Of passes, the letting Of con-
tracts to councilmen and various other
devices for placing them under obliga'
tionS. Some tf these things will no
doubt seem Infamous to all good peo-
pie, and yet they are simply the arti-
lices that practically all big corpora
tions holding franchises and special
privledges resort to, 1t Is a good sys-

Some curious inequalities are noted
in the Kansas crop situation says the
Wichita Beacon. At some points
farmers are giving a pound and quar-.
ter Of wheat for a pound of corn, vet 1t
seems to be agreed by the authorities
that for almost every purpose u round
of wheat is worth more than a pound
of corn. At Wellington bran and
shorts are selling at Gil per half ton,
yet farmers are selling their wheat at a
little oyer SS per half ton. 1t seems un-
reasonable that bran and shorts should
be worth more than the wheat from
which they are made, particularly when
the flour product taken from the wheat
10 worth more than $l7 per half ton

There is fierce political war on in

iOus. Now that Is a political fight of
about such huge Importance as we may
expect to see in this country in three

REV, Shelton says, " one block on
Halstead Street, Chicago, torn down
and rebuilt, would do more good to
the inhabitants than ten thousand H.
braries." And Rev. Shelton is right.
This refers to the dark. damp, hot i'll
ventilated tenement house region.
But such places have no attractions for
our millionaire philanthrOpists. They
would rather help those that do not so
much need help and are able to help
themselves. Glory from this class is
more satisfying. These people in the
tenement districts are utterly dirty
aud damnable. They are outside the
pale of human care. This appears to
be their way OF looking at it. And
then another thing. Ii they should
commence a reformation of the tene-
mint system, improve the buildings
and cheaper the rent they would be
sToiling one of their best CRAFTS. They
uu't direct their philanthropy along
Ines that will not interfere with their
TroliIs and their opportunities to re-
coup.

Causes of Depression.

Washington, Nov. l2.-The indus
review Of the evidence taken before the
commission on the subject Of agricul-
ture and agricultural labor. Among
other subjects discussed is that Of agri-
cultural depression, Of which the COM
mission speaks a. follows:
1.-THE cause most often assigned for
the depression Of agriculture in the
Western states IS the increased produc-
ton due to the opening Of lands in adj
vance Of their natural demand, especi.
ally through the agency Of liberal land
laws and grants Of land in the aid Of
railroad construction. The competi.
| ton of the West has been rendered rs.
pecially severe by the policy Of the
| railroads in making freight rates rela-
lively low for long distances. The old
staple products having thus become un.
profitable in the East, it has been nee
essary for farms to change their meth
DDS aud vary the character Of theil
crops, taking up especially the culture
OF products which are not easily trans
ported long distances. Thus truck
farming has largely supplanted cersa
growing along the Atlantic coast, bu
farmers in the North Atlantic state
now complain OF the severe competi
tion Of the states further South in Til
industry, and much the same may b.
said Of fruit growing. Even 20 perish
able commodity rs milk Is transport
ed much longer distances than formerl
since the introduction OF refrigcrato
cars
