WORDS in OUR LANGUAGE
Springfield Republican.

opflnglleld NepuDllcan.
No one can say how many
words there are in the English
language, because there are so
many words of doubtful stand
ing. The Century dictionary
contains about 225,OOO words
and the new edition of the
Standard dictionary lays claim
to over 300, OF these many
are obsolete and many others
are rarely used. Science has
added a vast vocabulary of
polysyllables that are scientific
formulate rather than real
words. They have no place in
general literature. The ordi-
nary English vocabulary may
be said to contain from 100000
to 10000 words, the latter esti-
mate being large. No single
writer of literature has used so
many as the lower number
named.
Shakespeare, whose vocabu-
larry is larger than that of any
other English poet, unless it be
Browning, used about $4,000
words, while Milton, whose
range was narrower, employed
only about half that number.
The vocabulary Of the illiterate
has been set as low as 300
words, but this must be excep-
tional. 1t is more likely that
the "ordinary workingman'
uses from 5000 to 5000 words,
while, OF course, he is familiar
with several thousand more,
which he recognizes in print,
but does not himself use.
The common estimate of the
average vocabulary of educated
people is from 5000 to 5000,
but in this case the number of
words which are not used is
enormously increased. A we'll
read college graduate should be
familiar with peraaps 100000
words, while in the course of a
year he might not use 5000 Of
them in his writing or CONVEX
sation. Shorthand reporters
find about $500 word signs and
contractions ample for repree-
senting the words which are
commonly used in public speak

They took splendid care of the

While the old man was dying
there was no minister present,

just at this time we hear a
considerable talk about :; tariff, ,
and some have gone so far as to
assert that there is but little
difference between the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties
on THU; subject. We conclude
that those who so talk have not
read the position occupied by
the two parties. The Republic
can platform says:
"Ratcs OF duty should be re-
adjusted only when conditions
have SO changed that the public
interest demands their altera-
tions, but this work cannot safe
| ly be committed to any other
hands than those of the Repub-
lican party"
While this is not as plain as
it might be, yet it is that kind
of declaration calculated to de-
ceive. We do not forget that.

ty is always with an upward
tendency, never TO lower the
schedules.
A tariff for revenue is the on
ly constitutional levy of taxa
ton known to our country, and
any other taxation is, to call it
by no other harsher name, moth
ing more nor less than legalized
robbery. If there any good rea-
son for taxing one man to give
to another, what is it, If such
tax (for tariff is only taN) is
necessary for revenue to meet
the expenses of the government
all we'll, for Congress has power
to levy taxes for such purpose,
and for no other. The first and
only reason for tariff was for
revenue, with incidental protec-
ton to home industry.
The Democratic position is:
eve favor a revision and grad
ual reduction of the tariff by
the friends of the masses and
for the common veal and not
by the friends of it's abuses, it's
extortions and it's discrimina-
TONS
Just why the voters of Iowa
continue to vote for a high pro-
tective tariff is agreat mystery.
What advantage do they derive
from it7 1t increases the price
of lumber, iron, paper, intact
everything the people use, and
gives no remuneration in return
for such votes. The claim of
high wages to home labor is a
most transparent humbeg, and
is contradicted by over half a
million of honest toilers out of
work, and many Of them with
an emty dinner pail.
Rev. Myron Reed, of Denver,
Colorado, in one Of his sermons,
speaking on this subject, said:
''lf farmers did this knowing
ly they were more disinterested
than Jesus Christ or any other
character of history, as they
sacrificed their own and their
families welfare to benefit en-
tire strangers who were already
much richer than they could ev-
er hope to be. y Milwaukee Adj

High tariff breedes trusts and
trusts robs the people.
The high tariff is the creature
of class legislation, creates caste
in society, encourages extravi
gance in legislation, and cor
ruption in office. A voter in.
Iowa votes for a high protective
tariff to benefit the manufactu-

robbery, to popularize it, has
been called "The AmericanSys-

AUTO VAS STUCK IN MUD.
HOLE.

L. 4. s,as.Mr's MaChine Had to
Be Pulled CAT 81 Mite.
\ hitherto unpublished All
venture of l.. \. Casper hiss
just been reported from Cfes-
cent. Mr.. and Mrs. Casper star
ted for Sioux City and Mime
apolis in their new automobile
a few days ago and at Reels
mudhole, the most notorious
piece of bad road in Pottawat-
tamie county, the machine be-
came stuck. A farmer who hap
pened along with team offered
to pull it out for s. but his ton
der was not accepted.
Another yeoman of the vicin-
ity drove up and said he would
do it for $3.50. Mr.. Casper told
him to hitch on and get the
auto out of the mud. which the
after did.
When it came to paying. Mr..
Casper found he did not have
enough money and was fore ed
to draw a check on a Council
| Bluffs relative. The check was
presented, explanations were
asked and the story of the ex-
alderman's double plight came
out in full. Nonpareil.
We hear considerable talk of
the old age of Ex-senator De-
Wis. Democratic candidate for
vice-President, being 81 years
old. We must not forget that
old age is honorable, and that
some men are younger at 80,
than others are at 60. IfSena-
tors Pettus at 63, Hoar 78, Nor
gan so, Platt II, Cullon Is, De-
Pew 70, Hawley rs, Proctor y,
Fry q, and our own Allison "a,
and many expect him to be our
President at no distant day. If
old men make good Senators,
why will not an old man make
a good presiding officer, especi-
ally so a man of long expert
ence in the House and Senate.
Ii he was on the republican
ticket no such objection would
be heard, and we, therefore,
conclude that the objection is
more political than old oge. We
must not forget the old COM
mand which says: "Old men for
counsel, young men for war;
so we take Davis for counsel,
and leave Fairbanks for war.
The race entries in the early
closing stake events for the
Iowa State Fair have been
eminently satisfactory to Sec
Rotary j. c. Simpson and indi-
cate that the race meeting will
be one of the best in the history
of the fair. The inquiries show
