Wnat 40 we greauIy need IN any
president at this particular time in our
country's history? A strong, positive
business man with extraordinary exec
utive ability.
The daily disturbances in the de-
partments of government show that
underneath there Is a seething mass
of incapacity or corruption and that
the methods long In vogue are crude,
imperfect and costly. Abuses incident
to long continuance in power Of one
party render the introduction of q
thorough business system necessary.
The management of the affairs Of
the government requires much more
than an able jurist or a rcsourceful
politician; it requires chief exec
utive in fact as we'll as in name Not
IN enemy of Hearst-and he could not
redress wrongs and pursue evil doers
without having them-but will admit
that in his business career he has a
keen insight, a calm Judgment and an
executive ability seldom equaled.
Hearst has handled and created mil
lions and, to his credit be it said, with
out blunder.
Is he not a safe man? Who is safer
Of all the aspirants?
Mr.. Hearst is not Il lawyer. nor is he
an orator, but he is thinker and
doer. a gatherer of facts and judge
Of them.
He believes in equality before the
law. He also believes that social
equality depends on factors beyond
the reach Of legislation and official rec
ognition and that herein the utmost
liberty Of personal choice and inclina-
ton must be guaranteed the individ-
ual; that an endeavor to force such
equality upon people is contrary to
our laws and is an outrage on decency.
His rebuke to the president. one Of
the first protests made is replete with
strong reasoning. Yet no colored man
would ever appeal to Hearst and be
denied full hearing and fair treat
ment.
In fact, If elected president. Mr..
Hearst would enforce the laws, re-
move or cause to be removed the out
rageous burdens Of the trusts and tar
III and give to the country one of the
best and strongest and most success
ful business administrations it has
ever had.
If nominated he cannot be defeated.
and we shall truly have government
Of the people. by the people and for
! the people, and not a government Of
the people. by the trusts and for the
! trusts!

SOCIOLOGICAL
Social UpIift Of Cities.

All Salt Out of Same Kettle.

Some interesting light is thrown on
the tricks of the salt trust by the tes-
timony of Nathan S. Beardslee, one Of
the receivers of the National Salt COM
pany, in case before the supreme
court at New York. The case grew
out of the auction sale of the salt plant
at Ithaca, N. ", as decreed by the d.
rectors July %, 1903. The receiver
said that the property sold included
valuable brands and trademarks, such
as ''The Purity Salt" When asked If
this brand of salt was different from
the other cheaper brands Mr.. Boards
lee said, "They all come out of the
same kettle" The high price, he said,
was justified by the extensive adver-
tising the brand got

Christian communion in the sacred
meals of the secret societies of pagan
ism, collegia of Roman and the labor
unions Of Greece. He finds that, though
outer forms of human prayer may diff
fer, their inner substance is one-"the
desire for the knowledge of God, the
longing for the forgiveness of sins and
peace with God. the realization Of the
oneness of man with his source and
spring" DIR. Newton reaches the CON
clusion that foreign missionary work
is folly and crime. proceeding on the
theory that christianity holds mo-
nopoly Of all religion and that there

Selling and Buying.

The department of commerce and
labor recently published the statement
that the average cost of living in Amer

statement is based undoubtedly on
wholesale market quotations.
Since Nov. 1, 1903, there has been an
average reduction of wages throughout
the manufacturing centers of the east

foodstuffs have increased in price since
the same date.
The price of newspapers in the great
