Is this not sufficient"
What object the dailies can have in
attempting to MAZE the people OF this
country believe that the German social
democratic party is the same thing
that goes by the. name of socialism in
this country is unknown. The fact IS
that the social democrats of Germany
are simply advocating the reforms fay-
ored by conservative liberals the world
over, very many of which have al
ready been enacted into law N this

CANNOT ENDURE

The editor of The Independent said
a, the Denver conference that pres
ent conditions could not endure for
another twenty-five years. Even the
Wall Street Journal seems to enter
tain the same opinion. In speaking of
Rockefeller's income of ten million
dollars a quarter, it remarks:
1T is all very well to talk of
property rights-they should be re-
spected, and heaven knows they
are respected, since they are put
ahead of life, charity and justice
in all our law books.
"The ten millions of dollars
mean ten millions of days work.
II ten million of men must
work a day every three months for
Mr.. Rockefeller, is he not getting
more than his share?
1--WE can't be forever discover
ing new oil wells. building new
great cities. developing and or
ganizing new great industries in
order to pay Mr.. Rockefeller what
he wants.
What will happen when the
people no longer have the money
ready to pay Mr. Rockefeller in
terest on his mortgage on the
United States?
They will have to take an earn
est thoughtful view of him or of
his heirs at that day.
That some sort of policy must be
adopted different from that in vogue
must be apparent to any thinking man
That the present awful extoltions ex-
acted from labor and agriculture for
the benefit of bankers and manufac-
turers cannot long be endured is cap
able Of a mathematical demonstration,

The INSCRIPTIONS manner IN which
the republicans continue to deceive
the people IS getting past all endnr-
ance. Here is a sample of their lying
taken from the st. Paul Pioneer
Press:
"The gold in the Bank of En-
gland amounts to about $167 ,000,-
coo; in the Bank of Germany,
$4,000, 600; in the Bank Of Aus
tria-Hungary, 221.0O0,000. Add
all these sums together, and we
yet have to draw $95.0O0.000 from
Frances hoard OF $494 100000 to
make a total equalling the $685.
000,000 which, according to
statement just put forth by Treas
urer Roberts, is the amount of
gold at present held by the United
States treasury. This store of
treasure exceeds any on record"
That $653. 100000 is not in the
United States treasury. Over $164,-
100000 has been deposited in the
bsnts and very l"rge part of the re-
mainder also belongs to the banks. It
has been deposited with the govern
ment and gold certificates have been
issued AGAINST it. The gold that is in
the banivs of Berlin, Paris and the
Bank of England belongs to those con-
Germs. Only part of the gold that is
in treasury of the United States be-
LONGS to it and most Of what it does
own has been deposited in the banks
and it dare not try TO take it ont of the
ban'vs. Such unscrnpnlous living is an
EVERYDAY occurrence in the daily
press. This sort of financiering will
end in the same way that the trust
tinanciering has.
The above para Graph is most care
fnilv devised The inference which
every common n will draw from
II is that that gold belongs to the
United States the same as the gold in
tho European banks belongs to them
althoroh it don't saw so. bnt it does
saw that 1t "is held" bv the United
States. which is false, for large part
of it is held by the national banks.
&>>$$$S&
The evanescent character of 'paper
wealth" is shown by reference to the
stock of the Lake Superior Consol-
dated company. Seventeen months
ago a man who held 100000 was
worth $4,000. Today he is worth ST.
500. If he had at that time 100000
worth of the common he would have
been worth $4,000. Today, as that
stock is selling for one-fourth of one
pei cent of it's face value, it would not
take very large pocketbook to hold
his wealth even if it were all in the
despised silver dollars, which have
never yet varied one-thousandth of
cne per cent in value.

ANAwFUL SOCIAL CATASTROPHE

one evil day woman recognized him

A Heavy Scenic Production.

Clear stage, we carry all our own
scenery" is the notice manager Bartlett
received from the Millionaire Tramp
Company. Exchanges say that the
setting of the Holy Cross Church in the
second act is one of the most beautiful
realistic stage pictures they have eyer
witnessed. The third act contains a
novel setting, the exterior of an Opera
House, changing to the interior with the
audience seated and the performance in
progress. In this scene theater-goers
will have the unique experience of
watching another audience watch
another play, or in other words, an
audience that is to itself an audience
will to the real audience become actors.

The Faith OF the Setting Hen.

Perhaps in a way there is nothing
more heroic than a female fowl trying
to hatch something from nothing. The
old gray goose will sit for months on a
stone, after being robbed of her eggs,
vainly hoping to educe a b.vy Of Cos
lings from the impressive material. And
the hen is equally persistent and plucky.
She will hover for weeks and weeks
over a discarded knob, looking gladly
forward to the day she will bring forth
therefrom a fluffy family. If men had
the faith of an ordinary mongrel hen
they could do miracles. No Christian
martyr ever showed more persistence
and blind. faith than "Old Spec" when
the fever of spring gets to working in
her blood, and the mineral instinct
takes a firm hold of her entire being.
Does any other creature exhibit such
blind faith and trust and hope under
discouraging circumstances? In ancient
times mighty things were performed by
faith and belief, but there is not in the
whole world, ancient or modern, d more
sublime example of this quality than
that given by the setting hen. The hired
MARVELLOUS and ngly after a night al
dancing-may hurl her from the feed
box of one of the horses; the boss may
damn the setting hens, anyway but
she win creep back after a little Of

cobs, hoping, doubtless, thereby t,
hatch out a field of yellow dem. God

of the brindle setting hen, we would G,

Experiments in Duck Feeding.

Some very instructive results were
obtained from a New York experiment,
noted by the Department Of Agriculture,
in feeding young ducks on grain and
meat ratiOns contrasted.
Thirty-two ducklings were fed a ra-
ton or mixed grain and skim milk or
curds containing no animal matter.
Thirty-twc other ducklings of similar
size were fed mixed grains with animal
meat and fresh bones, or dried blood.
Both were well balanced rations.
In the first ration all the protein came
from vegetables sources and in the
latter about one-half of it was from
animal sources.
1t was soon noticed that the animal
meat birds We're developing rapidly and
evenly, but that the grain fed ones
were becoming thin.
1t was a contrast to see the long
necked, scrawny granted birds, with
trough full of good, apparently whole
some food before them, standing on the
alert and scrambling in haste after the
unlucky bug or hopper that ventured
into their pen; while the meat-fed ducks
lay lazily in the sun and paid little
attention to insect life.
The thirty two meat.fed birds lived
and throve, but at the end of the if
teenth week thirteen of the grain birds
had died, and the others were in poor
condition.
The remainder were then fed foul
weeks on the meat ration and made
rapid gains.
Rations are recommended in which AZ
to so per cent. of the protein is supplied
from animal sources.

TITS remarkable that the labor
unions which censure the Presi-
dent for his reinstatement in the
bookbinders' department of the
Government printing Office do
not see the folly and in fact the
very grave wrong they do them
selves in such action. The case
was a plain one. BY the rules
of the union bookbinders, he
was expelled. By the civil
service laws of the United States
he was ~reinstated. AS explained
at the time, it was a plain con
hiCt between labor union rules
and U. S. Statutes. Probably
no union man would be found to
say that in such a case the laws
must be set aside and the uniOr
rules prevail. Yet that is the

True Secret of Horse Breeding.

writer, John H. Wallace, says in an
unpublished letter in the possession of
the Department Of Agriculture:
"When | commenced to think and
write about the horses fifty yelgs ago,
like all other beginners of that day, L

afflicted with the parrot cry of that age,
that the way to improve the horse or
any other domestic animal was to breed
up, and | never got clear of my afflic-
ton till | sat down to the study of great
collections of facts. 1t did not take me
long to learn then that mere breeding
up was a delusion and a humbug, and
that the true way to breed was to go to
the horse that possessed the qualities
and could do what | wanted my colt to
possess and do.
In other words, adopt the simple
formula that like begets like In look
ing back over the acts Of a long life, ]

a long time, but it has now become the

WESTERN

In a recent interview in the
Denver Republican, Mr.. F. H.
Newell, chief photographer of
the United States Geological
survey, remarked that he was
much in favor of having Western
men in charge Of the irrigation
projects which the federal
government has in contempla-
ton. He added that they knew
the country, whereas an Eastern
engineer has to spend several
years before he is familiar with
Western conditions.
This is altogether a sensible
view to take of the matter. Of
course Western men understand
our local conditions better than
Eastern men, and this applies
throughout. 1t is as true of men
who make irrigation laws as of
those who construct irrigation
works.
Irrigated agriculture in the
inter-mountain country is more
than fifty years old. 1t has been
developed in that time, and since
it was begun thousands of young
men have grown to maturity
without information about any
other kind of agriculture. 1t is
not strange that the people of
this section, which has itself
come to maturity while building
up a system of agriculture
peculiar to the arid region should
be better informed concerning
that system than men of the
East who have never lived in
this part of the country.
Mr.. Newell will no doubt give
the preference to Western
engineers in employing men tC
carry out his projects, and if he
does so he will secure better anC
in every way more satisfactory
results. The mistakes which
years ago were made by en-
gineers learning irrigation prin
ciples will thus be avoided il
constructing the bitches, canal:
and reservoirs planned by th'
department Of the interior
