WILL SET TYPE BY MACHINE
Government Employees, However,
Are to Retain Their Positions
in Uncle SANS Print Shop.

Washington, June 20.-At last a type
setting machine is to gain a place in
the government printing office. Pub
lie Printer Palmer has perfected ar
rangements whereby twenty-five Mer-
genthaler and twenty-eight Lanston
machines will be installed in the big
shop, and when congress opens again
next December the Congressional Rec
ord for the first time in history will not
be set up by hand. More may be added.
The hundreds of printers who draw
good pay at the government printing
office have always looked with fear
upon the idea of typesetting machines
there, but it has been so arranged that
not one of the men employed will be
driven from work. The Mergenthalers
viii cost $500 each and the Lanstons
So, $50 each.

VERY Inconsiderate of Canada.

If Canada sees fit to adopt a tariff
schedule that will permit her to retaliate
toward some of those nations that have
been adding to their credit at her ex-
pense that is her unquestioned% privilege.
1t is the lack of consideration shown in
springing the plan just at this time that
grieves us. Does not Canada realize that
at this particular moment the fiat fry
ers" are getting out their skillets and
their toasting forks preparatory to be-
ginning their q%uadrennial stunt of ex-
tracing campaign funds? Are not the
Stand patters" shouting themselves
hoarse in their unwavering support of a
policy that is already beginning to evil
dence its defects? How can our Cana
dian cousins expect the frying process to
be thorough If they persist in throwing
salt on the blaze before the skillet has
become fairly warmed?-Detroit Free

An Empty DeIusiOn.

How oneou public conceptions are
and how inscrutable the powers that
govern prices-when the stables are
controlled by a combination-is demon
strated by the latest information con-
corning the ice crop of the east. The
deluded public of that section has
been taking for granted that after such
a winter ice will be cheap. But this is a
shallow and empty desulion. 1t is now
explained by the ice combination that
more must be charged next summer be-
cause the Maine ice crop cost more
than aver to harvest. The weather was
so stormy and adverse that the men
could work but a share Of the time.
The ice was so thick that the ordinary
saws could not cut it, the blocks were
too large to fit the runways, and the
men got discouraged and demanded
higher wages. So the cost must be put
up, because there was so much ice
that only the usual half crop could be
secured. This will doubtless surprise
the innocent purchaser who has to pay
the ice bills. But he will swallow it as
usual. Indeed, that is the part of wis
DOM; since if he kept on kicking the
companies might raise the price still
higher to pay for the cost of getting
up the explanations.-Pittsburg Dis

FOOD FACTS
What an M. D. Learned.

A prominent physician Of Rome.
Georgia, went through a food expert
ence which he makes public:
"It was my own experience that first
led me to advocate Grape-Nuts food,
and I also know from having pre-
scribed 1t to convalescents and other
weak patients that the food is a won-
derful rebuiluer and restorer of nerve
and brain tissue, as well as muscle. 1t

TENTS always gain just as l did in
strength and weight very rapidly.
II was in such a low state that l
had to give up my work entirely and
go to the mountains of this state;
but two months there did not improve
me; in fact I was not quite as we'll as
when I left home. My food absolutely
refused to sustain me and 1t became
plain that I must change; then | be-
gan to use Grapefruit food and in two
weeks I could walk a mile without
the least fatigue and in five weeks re-
turned to my home and practice, talk

Cortelyou and His Two Jobs.

Secretary Cortelyou, who is the head
of that vague department of our govern
ment known as the department of COM
merce and labor, Is going to stop the al
legged work his country is paying him
to Go and travel around the land circus
ing his chief, Mr.. Roosevelt. 1t was
thought by some he would have the
grace to retire from the cabinet before
he took charge of the national commit
tee, but he has told a reporter who asked
about it that he had no intention of re-
signing. He would draw his salary for
doing one sort of work and give his time
to another. This may be political ethics,
but 1t is not the morals of the mar in the
street. -Brooklyn Eagle.

An Appeal for Harmony.

So we entreat our fellow democrats
everywhere to come together as friends
and brothers, seeking to find the way and
to follow 1t. What w really want is
less logic. each man manufe curing his
own, and more sense and judgment. The
prospect of a victory lies before us-it
is within our grasp. Let us not bubble
over immaterial incidents or quarrel
about candidates. Any good democrat
will suit us and any good democrat ought
to suit you, fellow democrats. And when
the lines are set and the ticket is named

shoulder to the wheel of the old ~carry-all,
nor any son-of-a-gun of us look behind!

NEAT PRICES NOT LOWER.
Packers Combine Still Defies Each
and Every Provision of the
Antitrust Law.

Dun's Index Numbers of Commodity
prices for June l show a large decline
in dairy and garden produce and a
slight decline in clothing. An increase
in the price of breadstuffs, meats and
other food, metals and miscellaneous
items that make up the cost OF living.
The average decline in prices during
the month of May is 1.25 points. In
spite of the protestations of the pack
ers' combine that the prices it is
charging are reasonable there has been
a slight increase of 0.104 in the price
of meats on the average during May.
AS the members of the packers COM
bine have proceedings pending against
them in the supreme court and an in
junction was procured by the law de-
partment of the government forbid
ing the beef barons from conspiring in
restraint of trade, it would naturally
be expected that the price of meats
would decrease. But the facts seem to
be that while cattle and hogs are lower
in price there has been an increase in
the price of meat. Perhaps when Sec
rotary Cortelyou has finished his in
vestigation of this trust, that President
Roosevelt has decided is the only bad
industrial trust, the report will ex-
plain how it is that the efforts Of the
administration to curb it have not sue
ceeded.
The corporations having selected At
torney General Knox as United States
senator from Pennsylvania will allow
President Roosevelt to select some one
in his place, who instead Of being a
trust lawyer, will be anxious to curb
and punish the bad trusts. If President
Roosevelt should appoint an attorney
general who would carry out the crimi-
nal section of the antitrust law and
succeed in placing the beef barons "be-
hind the bars" there Is a strong prob
ability that Dun's Index Numbers
would soon make a favorable
showing on the price of meats, more
nearly in accord with the price paid
the farmers for cattle and hogs.

PROSECUTING THE TRUSTS.
Public Has Received No Benefit from
the Steps Taken by the Rooss-
Welt Administration,

The exposure of the anthracite coal
trust methods, through the investiga-
tion by the interstate commerce commits
sion, shows exactly what is claimed by
the democrats, that there is a conspiracy
in constraint of trade between the rail-
roads and the coal companies. This in
vestigation has not been carried on by
the administration, but by a suit of law
commenced by a democrat of national
reputation, who, when the coal trust
refused to exhibit its books, carried the
case to the supreme court of the United
States, which decided against the trust.
This victory for the people shows what
President Roosevelt and the late Attor-
ney General Knox might have done to
curb the trusts, if they had in good faith
desired to do so. Instead Of prosecuting
the trusts under the criminal section 81
the antitrust law, a half hearted equity
proceeding for an injunction against the
beef trust is the only legal step that has
been taken against the industrial trusts
to punish or restrain them.
The beef trust barons have paid no
more attention to the injunction than II
it had never been issued and still con-
troll not only the principal cattle mar
kets but dictate the price of meat. The
lower branch of congress, under the
whip and spur of popular indignation,
ordered the department of commerce
and labor to investigate the cattle and
beef combines, but although weeks have
passed, and no doubt Secretary Cortel-
you Is ardently pressing the investiga-
tion, it does not appear to have had any
deterrent effect upon the rapacity of the
combine. 1t may be that the arduous
labors Of Mr.. Cortelyou in aiding Presi-
dent Roosevelt to arrange the details OF
the republican campaign have prevented
either of them from paying much atten-
ton to curbing a trust, which even the
administration admits is a bad one.
1t has been suggested that the reason
President Roosevelt has selected Secre-
tary Cortelyou to manage his campaign
was that the evidence he has obtained
against the trusts could be used as a club
to make them come down" to the great
advantage of the republican campaign
fund. That would be no new plan, for
it is charged that Congressman Babcock
threatened the steel trust with antago-
nistic legislation unless that giant COM
bine made a donation to the campaign
fund OF 1862, when it was much needed.
If the coal trust, the beef trust or any
of the other reputed bad trusts had been
| persistently proceeded against by the
administration and results obtained by
| forcing them to sell their products at
reasonable prices, the suggestion of
| their connection with the campaign fund
in lieu of prosecution would have no
weight. But the fact that nc trust or
combine has been exposed by the admin
istration and that a private citizen has
had to bear all the expense of forcing the
evidence of the m~anipulations of the coal
trust into public view, certainly allows
a sinister construction to be pat upon
the lack Of energy in prosecuting the
trusts by President Roosevelt an& his
department of justice.

Famous PIayfe1lOws.

When Gen. Sherman was a small

together with Hoyt, a younger brother
of the general, were out driving n
day, when, as they passed a flag wav-

"Well, if you do it again, I'll put
you out"
Nothing more was said, and the
drive proceeded enjoyably. On the way
home the flag was passed again, and
again Jimmie Blaine put his thumb
to the tip of his nose, and so forth.
Cumpie rained his horse, took the
struggling Jimmie, but gently but firm
ly lifted him out of the wagon. Then,
in spite Of Hoyt's remonstrance that
that was not the proper way to treat
a guest, he drove off, leaving Jimmie to
tramp the ten miles home as best he
might.-Lippincott's Magazine.

Why Socialism Is Growing.

The rapid growth of socialism IL
directly due to the republican policy
of protection and subsidies. 1t leads
men to believe that the government
should care for them as it protects the
trusts and corporations. Seeing the
tariff barons are made rich by special
laws why cannot, they ask, all of lis
have our legal share of the plumber?
Instead of numerous trusts, why not
have a national trust, In which every
one can be a stockholder? Protec-
ton thrives ON public extravaganza
and breeds corruption, another argu-
ment for socialists. Honest republicans
who have been led to believe in pro-
lection, should think of the broad road
they are driving in and the revolution
and destruction of republican govern
ment that must be met at the the end
Of their journey. The only salvation
for the masses is their being led to be-
lieve that Equality Of opportunity for
all"-the fundamental doctrine of de-
mocracy--will destroy monopoly and
give each his share for his labor, with
out the paralysis Of individual effort
that socialism would produce.
