LET JUSTICE BE SWIFT

Even a cursory review of current
Rews will show the observer that there
seems to be an epidemic Of crime in
high places. Boodling, grating and
aefaulting trials are in the courts of
many states and cities. The aggregate
Of It is appalling and the only redeem
ing feature is the vigorous prosecution
which in the majority of the cases is
being made against the criminals no
matter what their rank or station.
There can only be one rule for all
such cases and that is, Let no guilty
man escape" The president voiced the
aentiment Of the people in his severe
arraignment of the postal frauds.
The nation or state or community
that winks at crime in high places is
only temporizing with time of greater
peril High citizenship and great civic
virtue can only be maintained where
Justice is swift and sure.

GERMANY AND SOCIALISM

Germany is the first of the nations
enohave to make fight against social
ssm and that fight is raging in the
reichstagno~ where the socialists have
sneceeded i'm gaining many represen-
tatives.
The, leader. Of the socialists, Herr
Rebel. has oReWed an attack on the
government which. reads very much
like the populist' denunciations of
Jerry Simpson or Senator Allen in the
days when populism was a burning is
sue ina the United States congress.
Count Won Buelow. the imperial
chancellor, in reply made scathing
attack upon socialism said: do not
believe that socialism will triumph and
Ham, convinced that the common sense
Of the German people, the solidity of
eur Institutions. the patriotism of all
an civil parties and the intelligence
and decision of the crown and it's adj
wisers win ward off such a disaster.
Rnt If you should succeed, then there
would happen what Herbert Spencer
predicted, and the present order of
things would give place to a most saw
age and brutal regime of the sword.
Socialism Is the newest doctrine of
the radical thinkers who have always
suffer Socialism is complete return
10 paternalism from which condition
modern civilization was evolved and
il, is safe to predict that such a step
backward will never be taken.

A Striking Contrast
(Lincoln Starr

Take Germany and the United
States for comparison of fiscal opera
tions. For the last fiscal year our
treasury had surplus of $50, 900
of revenue over expenditure. The Ger
man budget shows for the same year
a deficit of $53,5O0,O0 There could be
no more striking contrast.
Here national taxation is light, so
light and easy that it is hardly felt.
In Germany there is ever increasing
complaint of the exactions of the tax
gatherer, and the hardships of the peo-
pie. Such discomfort is expressed in
the formidable growth of the socialist
party.
1t Is true that we do not have to
bear the expense of prodigious reg
ular army as Germany does. But we
do pay out annually for pensions to
soldiers, mainly on account of the civil
war, an amount as great as Germany
pays to maintain it's vast military es-
adjustment.
Germany is straining every nerve to
build up a navy, which is one of the
emperor's pet projects. So are we
strengthening our navy as rapidly and
besides carrying on vast number of
national enterprises which Germany
does not undertake at all.

RADlUM INDUSTRY
Value and Usefulness of the New
Metal

Notwithstanding the difficulty in it's
production (many tons of ore being
required to produce gram) a radium
industry has already developed in Ger
many and France, and although gram
is sold at a little less than $4,000 the
manufacturers are said to have orders
for several hundred grams.
The demand for medical purposes ex-
ceeds the supply. Radium possesses
all the important qualities of the
Roentgen rays in addition to the in
valuable property of being ready for
use at any time-and furnishing it's rays
without the employment of apparatus.
1t has been demonstrated that a small
glass tube, not larger than goose
quill, containing a little more than a
thousandth part of a gram, is as effec-
tive as an expensive and complicated
electric apparatus for the treatment of
cancer-surpassing the best effects of
the Roentgen rays.

administered locally. as for instance in

Caterpillars Halt Mail Train
(sydney IN. S. W. Globe.)

(Sydney IN. S. W. Globe)
A gigantic swarm of caterpillars
which alighted on the tracks delayed
the last mail train from the southern
states for more than an hour.
In several parts of New South Wales
the caterpillars this year have found
such an abundance of food that they
have multiplied to an alarming extent
and assumed the proportions of a
plague. Part of the line over which
the mail train passed was covered with
caterpillars. particularly near Coota-
mundra. AT this point the wheels OF
the engine and train became abso-
lutely clogged with the bodies of the
larvae. and the train came to a stand
still.
Though the locomotives sanding
gear was in good order it was found
to be entirely inadequate to counteract
the effect caused by this strange OBJ
struction, and the driver. as a last re-
source. tied some sacking on the cow
catcher. and after several efforts sue
ceeded in starting the train. For the
rest OF the journey this device cleared
the track of caterpiiiars as the train
proceeded.

Uncle Sans Friendship
(Salt Lake Telegram.)

| Iodlt Lake leIcSTdH"I
Uncle Sam has attained a most COM
handing position as a world power.
This fact is attested in a most convinc-
ing way by the attitude of Sir Henry
Mortimer Durand, the new British
ambassador.
The speech delivered by Sir Henry,
when he was received by the president
at the White house, has caused much
comment among diplomats of all ma
tons on account of it's unusually
friendly nature.
1t was not couched in the customary
stilted terms, and he spoke with great
sincerity when he said he had been d.
rected by King Edward to keep con-
stant1y in view the maintaining and
Strengthening of the friendly relations
between Great Britain and the United
States.
AS the personal representatives Of
their sovereigns ambassadors present
their credentials to the president direct
without any introduction through the
state department as is the rule with
ministers, and it is needless to say that
the successor of Sir Michael Herbert
was shown all of the honors due his
rank, after his hearty expression of
good will
Other European countries are be-
coming as Jealous as England In cult
waiting the friendship of Uncle Sam and
their ENJOYS are as enthusiastic in
their professions of good will as was
Sir Henry, when he strenuously voiced
John Bulls love.

IT'S NOT A "PIcskiN"
A Fond Idol Broken by the Kansas
City journal


Another fond idol of the heart has
been smashed by the sporting editor
of the Kansas City Journal. who dis
covered that a football is not made of
pigskin after all. Common old cow
hide is used, according to the follow
ing:
The leather used is split cowhide
Ordinary cowhide is too thick for the
regulation weight. so it has to be split
into two parts. The outer, or hair side,
is what the best balls are made with.
Previous to splitting the leather has
been soaking in the tan pits for ten or
twelve months. Some makers cure
their hides in six weeks by taking
with chemicals, but leather so treated
won't make good balls.
The split" hide is we'll softened
with dublin, and then passed on to the
cutter. who cuts out the various Sec
tions, which. when sewn together, make
a perfectly round ball. The method of
doing this is kept a secret by most
makers, but it is known that tin plates
the exact size of the sections required
are used in many factories. All the
cutter has to do is to place one of them
on the leather and cut the shape with
a sharp knife These shapes are taken
in hand by expert sewers and soon the
outer cover is ready for the bladder.
This is made of the best Para rub
Der, and involves even more care in
it's construction than the leather cover
itself. 1t is of immense strength, and
is an expensive item, representing
nearly half the cost of manufacture.

the nose or threoat, is an invaluable
advantage.
The fact that radium exerts a very
peculiar influence upon light-emitting
bodies has given rise to the hope that it
may eventually play an important role
in the industry of light. A minute
quantity of radium is sufficient to pro-
duce a strong light from layer of zinc
pyrites, and this light produces no heat,
so that loss of energy is avoided Ra-
dunn rays, unfortunately. possess the
dangerous property of injuring the hu-

ute to the welfare of the people. !
The protective system as a whole
protects the American workingman.
The principle of reciprocity is as
simple as trading jackknives, for tits
only a trading of tariff privileges. 4.
When reciprocity is more valuable
than protection, we want reciprocity;
when protection is more valuable, we
do not want reciprocity. ::
The constitution should be $50
amended as to give congress the con-
troll of trusts. There must be uni
form law in all states before satisfac-
tory results can be obtained.
The next republican convention
should endorse Moses E. Clapp for
United States senator.
The next state convention must in
dorse Van SAINTS merger attitude.
The merger may be in the courts,
but the principle is in politics and
will continue in politics until the peo-
pie triumph or corporate power rests
secure as a ruling power in the land.
If MIR. Hill has discovered a way to
avoid the principle of competition in
