THE REPUBLICAN YARN BOOK

The Republican campaign book OF
1904 is, perhaps, the greatest coilec-
ton of political yarns ever put before
the American people. Its $50 pages
contain more fables, fairy tales, ghost
stories and exaggerations than are
contained in Arabian Nights, Aesop's
Fables and Baron Munchausen. Were
the tales told in an interesting way
and had their various authors-malnly
government employes-a better sense
Of humor, this collection of Republi-
can yarns might soon become one OF
cur most popular story books.
On page we are gravely told that
the accuracy and absolute fairness
Of the bureau Of labor statistics on
Labor, Wages and Prices,' which
show that wages have advanced faster
than prices. have never been called
in question:" and that they provide
.the very latest, most complete and
absolutely reliable information npor
this vital topic,
We Democrats had an idea that We
had for years been questioning the ac
curacy Of the bureau of labor figures
or wages, prices and cost Of living
Cur literary bureau has frequently
during the last two years, jumped on
these figures with both feet Hun
d,eds and thousands of newspapers
have printed these articles showing
the absolute inaccuracy and grotesque
ahsurdity Of these figures. About
August I the chairman Of the congress
sional committee gave to the press a
lengthy criticism Of the July, 1904 re-
port of the bureau of labor upon this
subject. This criticism, which was
widely published, was generally con-
sidered to have demolished the bu-
reau of labor statistics, both as to
wages and prices. It was published
weeks before the Republican cam
paign book was made public Strange
that its authors nave never heard Of
these criticisms.

as the arrangements which have been
rlade in the Cascade City are such as
to provide good accommodations and
entertainment for all who come.
Chief among the prominent hostel
ries which have opened their hosplt-
able doors is the Inisde Inn situ-
ated actually within the grounds OF
the exposition itself and erected un-
der the supervision of the Worlds
Fair management. It is three sto-
ries high, is 400 feet wide, 500 feet
long and contains $500 room, in a.t,ii
ton to its parlors and waiting-rooms
and a dining-room and restaurant,
seating $500. The Inside Inn is I'M
der the direct management Of Mr.. E.
NJ. Statler, the well-known caterer OF

everyone CT his guests.
The Inside Inn is run on both the

No admission fee other than the first
one is needed, visitors being within

and are able to devote the whole of
their time to the pleasures and en-

A writer in a British periodical de-

The capture had. however, been seen
by another hermit crap. which at once
claimed share, ana a most amusing
chase began Unable alone to achieve
his object. No. 2 went eff, but present
y returned with friend, with whose
help it succeeded in effecting cap
ture. But tie chase had aroused the
interest of tke hermit-crab colony, and
presently from fifteen to twenty Of
them were engaged in furious battle
for the herring. T en- occurred the
most amusing episode of all. Out of
the struggling mass there crawled a
hermit crab, dragging the body, some.
