to democracy; it is its saviour,
1t may be considered an amend

Lesson To all the People

st. Louis t-Dlspatch The spec
tacle OF United States senator
standing before the bar of justice
convicted Of corrupt practices Is both
humiliating and gratifying. 1t Is
humilating that any man under the
legal and moral obligation Of honest
public service imposed by the incum-
bency OF an Office OF such great weight
and influence in the government
should stoop to betray the peoples
trust. 1t is gratifying that the incum-
bent OF so great and influential n
public Office should stand on the same
plane with the humblest citizen before
the law and should receive the punish
ment merited by his abuse of his
public trust. The spectacle was i'm
pressive and It's lesson should sink
deep into the hearts Of public officials
and OF the whole people.

Certainly Remarkable.

Platteville Witness: One of the
most remarkable surgical cases ever
experienced not only in this city but
in the state, has been that of Miss
Mary Malone, 1t will be remembered
that this young lady, who possessed a
remarkably fine head of hair, while
working in laundry had her hair
caught on collar of n line shaft and
her entire scalp torn off. The acct
dent happened something like two
months ago. At the time everyone
expected she would live but q few days
at most, but now the remarkable part
of the case is that it is given out that
unless something very unforeseen oc-
ours there is every probability that
Miss Malone will recover. Her con-
dition has been pitiable. She has re-
ceived the best OF surgical skill, and
the fact that she does not seem to real
ize the extent of her injuries and has
borne up cheerfully through her terri
bile ordeal, has helped her case greatly.
The people of Plattevile have taken
an unusual interest in the outcome of
her case,

Reiuvenatine the Business World.

Rejuvenating the Business World.
Detroit Free Press: While IL is un-
doubleday true that recent develop
ments throughout the country have
had disturbing effect on business In
trests, there is ample ground for the
belief that far from proving injurious,
the present agitation will have a bene-
fetal effect, tending to create more
wholesome conditions and work for
the restoration OF commercial health
and prosperity. The collapse of the
hip-building trust, the suit against
the Northern Securities Company, the
decision against the Peoples Gas
Company, the finding in the suit
against the anthracite coal companies,
while they may have to a certain ex-
tent been injurious to important
financial interests through the check
that was put on plans under contem-
plation, have all been in the direction
OF clearing the atmosphere Of the bust
ness world, and effect has in the main
been wholesome.

The above rates are for the things
we eat, drink and wear-in fact, for
all general purposes-and, it seems to
me, are more than fair when all is

by LaFollettism, could we expect a
reduction in rates on the remaining
