Work for All, and All Have Money

The cry set up to the effect that the cost
of living has increased TO such an extent
that the wage-earner is worse of now than
before the present era of prosperity is alb
surd. The workmen were never better OF
than they are to-day. They all have work
at full time. That alone, in contrast with
the time of souphouses under the last DEM
ocratic administration. proves the absurdity
of the cry about the great Increase In the
cost of living.
there been an advance I'm wages in addition
to the full time. But the increase in prices
is principally I'm farm products. and BEN
efts the AGRICULTURAL classes. Prof. George
Gunton has been investigating the rise in
prices and presents some interesting facts.
He shows that during the years lSg3-9I-s5-gs
there was a decline in prices constituting
the cost of living Of about ~ per cent. And
vet during that time there WAS more suffer
ing among all classes than in any previous
four years of the Nations history. The
lower prices did not help In the least. be-
cause the people did not have the money
TO buy with and there was no work for the
100000 unemployed. This condition OF
cheap supplies can be found In China. India
and in other countries where restitution Is

There is now work for ALL and all have

In the manufactured products. I'm which
trusts exist excepting coal there has been
an average decline OF 1913 per cent since
1880. The farmer Is at no sreater expense
excepting for labor. and he has been great

instruments. and. in fact, buys what he
needs cheaper than under the Cleveland ad-
ministration.

The public school laws of this State are
not perfect. but they cannot be improved
by attempts to reform them on political
lines. The suggestion that the present mode
of electirg county superintendent by town.
ship trustees should be changed because a
majority OF the trustees are Democrats is
not entitled to consideration. What the
schools need and what the people should
desire is a system that will insure the best
service irrespective of politics. The public
school system should be entirely divorced
from politics.

The Indiana law providing for the pun
ishment of vote sellers may have been well
intended, but it is subject to gross abuse,
and in Martin county the abuse has been
carried to the limit. No less than 104 Sin
formers" are after the 800 reward due for
each conviction on the vote-selling charge.
That number of indictments have been re-
turned, ard if all the charges are sustained
Martin county will pay out of it's treasury
over $4,000. Evidently the purchase of
votes has been pursued as a regular in
dustry, not for party purposes, but for the
financial benefit of the informers. Ignor-
ant or dishonest men have been inveig.led
by the offer of small sums into agreeing
to cast their ballots i'm a certain way, and
have accepted the money before witnesses
or have signed receipts therefor. There is
nothing for a grand jury to do but to re-
turn indictments in such cases, but it
should be within the province of a judge
to throw such cases out of court whenever
ii is proved that they are worked up
purely for purposes of gain. And there
is certainly room for an amendment of the
law that will prevent an increase of the
offense IL was intended TO check

dow seat he took a bundle of letters
eight of them-Frank's letters to Alice.
1t had been perfectly easy to sup
press them. Curtis had a key of the
box at the postOffice, and no one else
knew that he had it. He had secured
1t because there were some letters
coming from New York that he did
not wish any one to see-stockbrokers'
letters, with the names of the firms in
the corners of the envelopes.
1t seemed to him that he had drifted
into this crime against his will. He
had not intended to suppress the first
of Franks letters that he had taken;
only to read it, which was bad enough,
but not quite the same thing. He had
opened the envelope clumsily and had
not dared to show it afterward Ana
so the whole plan had developed to the
point where he had even succeeded in
stopping two of Alice's letters to Frank
which the girl herself would have tes-
titled that she had seen him drop into
the hole in the postoffice door. Those
he had destroyed after infaming his
jealousy by reading them. The others
he had kept with vague thought that
they might help him throw the crime

70 see the world! To be absolutely
free! He had strucn the right note.
Alice had not a penny of her own or
the shadow of a prospect. She was and
had been from early girlhood utterly
dependent upon George Curtis, whom
she called uncle, though there was no
real kinship. He was a kind and gen
erous man, yet there were those of
his household who had not the same
delicacy.
In the last two years when she had
been opposing her will to theirs be-
cause she loved Frank Bryce and they
all favored Owen Curtis cause there
had been some bitter moments. And
now Frank had forsaken her. There
could be no other conclusion. He must
have found some new love on the other
side of the world. He would return,
but if she could be far away, if she
should never see him again, if he could
think that she was happy, would not
that be best?
Why such a situation should ever in
duce a good woman to mediate mar
riage with a man she does not love is
problem which no male of the species
will ever be able to solve. But the
thing does happen.
81 want you to go down to New York
with me on the train that leaves early
tomorrow morning." said Curtis. you
can go to my sisters house. Uncle
George will make no objection. We
can be married there at once. Why
not? No one makes any objection.
You know that they will all be glad.
We can sail for Europe next week
and"-
The girls face was flushed, and her
hands were trembling.
81 will think of it," she said. "I will
talk with Unc,e George. All, we must
sing now"
She rose and waved her hand. The
children sprang up from the grass.
Curtis looked at her, his face as
white as the headstone behind him.
eff nothing happens" he said in his
heart, 81 have Won"
The music of the children's voices
throbbed in the dancing air of the
sweet May morning. When the song
was done, Alice walked to the other
end of the line. She did not wish to
hear Curtis speak again. She wished
to think. The mans intensity had
moved her. The restlessness within
her, that comes to the young in the
springtime pleaded for him. She look
ed away across the harbor to the east
ward, and the little shining waves
seemed to beckon her around the
world
Suddenly she was aware of an old
woman who was arranging flowers
upon a grave. Miss Polly bennett was
familiar sight enough, and her poor
best that she wore on this occasion
was the same as it had been for many
years.
Alice rested her hand upon the iron

An elephant that had read the fable
of the tortoise that by strict attention
to business had won "A race from a
hare that INDUCED in sleep, gentle

decided to profit by the hint given by
Mr.. Hsop, so he challenged a rabbit

the course was measured judges were

discover that he has been smoking the
wrong brand himself, for l am troubled
with insomnia, and never sleep. What
resting l do is after the running has
ended and the shouting has commence

The race was run, and those who had
placed their money on the elephant
never saw it again. The rabbit covered
the distance before the elephant had
moved his ponderous legs three times.
