Book Agents Ride In Cabs.

A New Yorker out of work last week
was attracted by an alluring advertise
ment from a publishing house. The
compensation mentioned was $50
week to commence and more as sales
increased. The young man was ambi-
tious and had a good general acquaint
ance among the sort of men who buy
books When he went for his job, he
was told that the $50 week PROPOSE
ton meant that the firm did not care
to employ book agents who had not
demonstrated their ability TO earn that
sum regularly on commission. There
was nothing in the nature of salary
guarantee about It. He was told also
that there were men book agents in
New York who made their $1,000 to
$4,000 a year without much trouble.
These agents, he was told, handled
only the highest and most expensive
publications. They had become ac-
quainted with the individual tastes
and peculiarities of rich men, who
never questioned the price of book If
1t was something they wanted. The
trade of these men was entirely In edl-
tons de luxe. The agents made ap-
pointments with their customers by
telephone either at the homes or offices
OF the latter and rode In hanson cab
to keep the appointment. II they did
not ride, they took boy from the pub
fishing house to carry the book.-New
York Times

CAUGHT BY FALLING WALL.
der.a Failing walt at shell
ton, Nebraska.

Lincoln, Neb., March 2J.-A special
to the Star from shelton, Neb, says:
A falling wall caught several volun.
teer fire fighters here at ten o'clock
Monday morning. Fred Colby was
dragged out alive from beneath the
debris. II is not known how many
other persons are buried beneath the
wall.
The fire originated Sunday after
noon In the Office of newspaper, and
three buildings with their contents
were destroyed. The smoldering
ruins were famed into blaze again
Monday morning, and Morris drug
store, Sutherland's drug store and
Hart's hardware store caught FIRE.
The town being without fire protec-
ton, more than 800 men, women and
children turned out 10 fight the
flames, which, aided by strong
wind, threatened the entire business
district.
Woodville Republican., 1903-03-28
Imperlallsm Not So Dead.

The republicans have been claiming
that the whole trouble in the Philip
pines has been settled, and that the
supreme court had long ago decided
the legal status of the inhabitants,
But the evidence is all against their
claims, for the late news from the
islands tells of the most unsatisfactory
conditions existing there. The Ma
nila Times of December 20 describes
the Moros dying by hundreds from
cholera which is sweeping the whole
Lake Lanao district of Mindanao. The
cable dispatch from Gov. Taft TO the
president urging legislation which he
saws is necessary for the welfare and
political necessities Of the people, also
shows a most critical state of affairs.
The article by Justice Brewer in Serib-
ner's, forecasting important cases that
are vet to come before the supreme
court, deals with Questions arising
out of our insular possessions. To
what extent" he adds, "the provisions
Of the constitution operate In these
possessions is yet undetermined" Evil
IDENTIFY Justice Brewer does not CON
slider the legal status Of the islands
settled by any means, and yet repub-
licans in and out of congress keep re-
peating their fables that Imperialism
Is no longer an issue.
Woodville Republican., 1903-03-28

If this extravaganza continues it
will require in the year 1910 that the
Sixty-first congress must appropri-
ate over $4,000, ,00O, 900 to keep up the
pace that the Fifty seventh congress
has set. Can the people stand this
tremendous drain on their earnings?
Is it not necessary to take stock and
figure out just where the leaks are,
and retrench accordingly? The busi-
ness man, the farmer and the me-
chanic. who have launched on sea
of extravaganza, are obliged sooner
or later to steer their bark closer to
the wind and seek safe harbor from
the financial storm that surely fol-
lows fair weather.
Every man, woman and child IS now
taxed over ten dollars every year to
support this extravagant republican
government. That means that each
head of family pays over SO, which
is more than doubled in an ind rect
way by the enormous profits which
the trusts and combines extort
through the working of the protect-
i've tariff. If the cities and towns OF
the United States were run on the
same extravagant plan that the fed-
eral government is, there would be q
general going into bankruptcy.

tary, has furnished an estimate TO
congress for the other three bureaus,
which are necessary under the new
law. and asks for 100000 for salaries
and nearly million dollars for various
expenses. No doubt all that he asks
congress 90 provide is necessary II a
real trust-busting department is In
tended, but until the republican leaders
are assured that there will not be any
too strenuous work in that direction,
there will be no such extravagant sum
voted as Mr.. Cortelyou asks for. The
trusts and corporations have too many
friends in congress to allow prece.
dent for large appropriations to be
made that might be used to annoy
them, when some administration will
be in power that really would be intent
on trust-busting. If Mr.. Cortelyou,
after years trial, is found to be con-
servative and only does just enough
trust-busting to fool the people into
believing that something is being done,
the next congress will be found quite
willing to fill his acquisitions, even to
