~$NOTES.~y

A curious fact noticed by publishers
and authors Is the cumulative effect on
the public of an authors work. The re-
suit is that the more books an author
puts out-proyided they are not disap-
pointing-the greater the sale of each
one For instance, the announcement of
Mr.. j. A. Mitchcl's new book, THE
Nlla Claudia has stimulated the de-
mand for his previous successes, Tine
Pines of Lory," Gloria Nictis,' and
Amos Judd" The new readers or

wages and interest remain on dead
level, but rents shoot skywaid. When
our forefathers wanted to live and
work on Manhattan Island, the Ind
ians required OF them but a few
strings of beads. But this generation,
before it pays interest on capital or
wages to labor, must pay the Astors
a tribute of hundreds OF millions. IL

the land monopolist that the first

Ground rent is the sponge that sucks
up the wealth of the nation.
THE NET RESULT.
Suppose the Panama canal should so
change the course OF trade that New
Orleans in a decade should grow to
the size Of Philadelphia. The net, re-
suit would be that the men who own
the site of the Crescent City would be
able to collect millions where now
they collect thousands in ground
rents, while the masses there would
be no better off than the masses in
the Quaker City. Without the single
tax that canal will be of trifiing ben
eft to the masses. The landlords will
be the chief beneficiaries. The money
sunk in that canal will increase ncith-
er interest nor wages. 1t will swell
ground rents. It is the peoples mon
ey but they will never get it back, un-
til they take these ground rents in
lieu of taxes.

There never was better 5ppor-
tunity for persons suffering from dis
eases of the heart, nerves, liver,
stomach and kidneys to test, free, a
remarkably successful Treatment for
these disorders. DR.. Miles is known
to be leading specialist in these dis
eases and his liberal offer is certainly
worthy of serious consideration by ey-
cry afflicted reader This opportunity
NAV never occur again.
His system of personal Treatment
is thoroughly scientific and immense
ly superior to other methods. 1t in
cludes several new remedies careful
ly selected to suit each individual
case and is the final result of twen-
ty-five years of very extensive re-
search and great success in treating
these diseases. Each treatment con-
slsts of a curative elixir, tonic tab
lets. eliminating pills and usually a
plaster. Extensive statistics clearly
demonstrate that DR.. Miles Personal
Treatment Is at least three times as
successful as the usual treatment of
physicians or general remedies sold

The Governor of the Philippine Islands
Succeeds rs Head Of the War
Department and
the
HON. ELIHU B. ROOT RETIREs
This Ends the Alleged Boom of Gov
ernor Taft as Candidate
for President.

The Philippine experience Of Cover
nor Taft just appointed and confirmed
as secretary of war will be valuable
to the president and cabinet. Military
duty in the Philippines promises to
be the principal work of the American
soldiery for the next generation. The
governor Of the islands ought to bring
back to America some ideas concern
ing colonial military movements i'm
portant to the army as well as the
nation. His career In Manila has been
creditable. He seems to have won
the approval Of the governed as well
as the governing power and his pro-
motion to cabinet position is a mer-
tied promotion.
B. Fl. robson, PRESIDENT
OF the Bankers Reserve Life Company.
wishes to advise the readers of this
journal that while Governor Taft has
been building up favorable public
sentiment and developing genuine
prosperity in the Orient, the Bankers
Reserve Life has been developing the
western field OF life insurance and
building up solid phalanx of friends
in the western states. The malignant
enemies OF it's earlier career concede
its reliability now They agree that
it is aggressive and are astonished at
It's phenomenal growth. Even the
great Life Insurance Trust is ready to
concede that the
BANKERS RESERVE LIFE
has earned its spurs in the fair field
without favors. The year 1903 closed
with $7000,000 of the best selected
risks ever written by a life company.
The year witnessed marvellous de-
yelopment of the company's business.
Every dollar owed by the Bankers
Reserve Life on December 81, 1868
was paid. Every loss had been ad-
justed. 1t entered upon the new year
with clean slate and its field force
will add s3,000000 net to the gross
amount at risk for 1904. Every read

Better Than a Canal

Cincinnati, O., Jan. II, 1904.--In the
pulpit of the Vine Street Congrega-
tional church today, the pastor, Her
bert S. Bigelow, spoke on the question,
"What is better than digging a ca
nal?" He said in part:
Since it is proposed TO spend SO
many millions for canal in Panama,
il is well to ask ourselves, Precisely
what good is IL going to do u.s.?
What is a canal? 1t is laDor-sav-
ing device. Will the canal beneht the
masses? Have iabor-saying machines
been Of benefit to them?
MACHINERY AND LABOR.
We should not stop inventllg ma
chinery because inventions have not
materially increased the wages OF Ia
bor We should SO OIL with our canal,
notwithstanding the fact that wages
for common ;aLCI will continue to be
what man can live on and no more.
We should not put stop to material
progress because, forsOoth, the pen
efits of progress have not been eGult-
ably distributed. But it is time we had
learned this tact. that of greater inn
portance, even, than digging canals,
is the work ci amending our laws, 10
the end that the benefits of public i'm
provements shall reach down TO the
bottom Of society and not be monopol-
lied by few at the top.
WHERE DOES THE WEALTH GO?
With canals, and railroads, and I'M
proved machinery, wealth production
has increased enormously. Yet there
has been no startling improvement IN
the condition OF the masses. Where,
then, does this wealth go! There are
only three places for it to go. 1t must
be distributed, either as wages, or in
terest, or rent.
There has been no increase In the
rate OF wages corresponding TO the in
crease in the productiveness OF labor.
Have we not five bridges spanning the
Ohio? Mighty triumphs Of civiliza-
ton! Yet it was only yesterday that
a father surrendered two OF his four
children to charitable institution be-
cause the wage he received as clerk
in a railroad office was not sufficient
to support them all. This father could
not have Jared worse IN this country
a century ago, yet those were the days
of ferry boats and stage coaches and
hand TOOLS
Neither has the capitalist absorbed
a larger share of this increased pro-
duction. AS matter of fact, the rate
of interest has gone down, and the
capitalist as capitalist, gets less than
ever before.
But not SO with rent. While inter
est and wages have stood still, rents
have gone up. On the great average

dent Cleveland, as against four months
and twenty days that it took the Repub-
licans to pass the Dingley bill after the
inauguration of President Mckinley.
No less than 634 amendments were
made to the Wilson bill before it was
passed-and then. despite this enormous
number of patches to make the bill suit
all Democrats, President Cleveland view
ed it with the utmost disappointment"
and said that it was marked with places
where the deadly blight of treason has
blasted the counsels of the bravo in
their hour of might" The colossal fail
ure of this bill to produce enough reve-
nue. to run the government, as well as the
general blow it inflicted on the industries
of the country, thereby driving thousands
of men out of employment, was in sharp
contrast to the success of the Dingley
bill in not only producing enough reve-
nue. but in giving employment to thou
sands of people out of work, and in re-
storing good times to the country.

Hippopotamus Hunting.

A hunter of big game in Africa
writes: "Hippopotamus hunting, as
a rule, is not exciting. except from a
canoe or boat, where the animal has
a chance of turning the tables. II a
clean shot is made he sinks like a,
stone and beyond few bubbles ON
the surface nothing more is seen till
he rises to the suface. belly up, in
from one to four hours. One can gen.
orally tell by the thud of the bullet il
the shot has told. 1t is mostly snap
shooting as they blow and a novice
or excitable person will often waste
lot of ammunition banging away at
every nose he sees bobbing up, ire
spective of distance or position. The
vulnerable spot is the brain, and it is
advisable to wait for a side shot,
when a bullet in the neighborhood of.
the ear will surely find it."

At one time there was an English

as a god in spite of his protests. Such
a hold had his powerful personality
taken upon the native mind that
strong sect of worshipers persisted in
regarding him as god. If, however,
one of the Nikkalseyn fakirs SO far

ship to the deity in person Nicholson
was in the habit of ordering him TO

did not in the least interfere with the
worshipers' belief in his divinity.
When Nicholson was killed some OF
the worshipers threw themselves
upon his tomb, but the remainder
went over in a body to Christianity,
saying: Our god told us that be Was

DEMOCRATIC INDIGESTION.
Country Has Suffered Because OF It
When that Party Was in Power.

When that Party Was in Power.
Whenever the Democratic party has
had a chance at power its course has
been like that of the donkey in the fable,
which died of starvation while trying to
decide which to eat first, its oats or its
hay.
1t was this way when Buchanan was
President. and could not make up his
mind whether or not to suppress by force
the secession movement in the South,
and so postponed having anything done
until Lincoln could become President
This dilatory policy was largely respon-
sible for the enormous cost in money and
lives OF suppressins the rebellion.
When Cleveland was President the
country suffered quite as much from ag-
onizing uncertainty as to what the Demo
Gratis were really going to do. as from the
actual evils that they did do. On neith-
er the tariff nor on the money question
was there any unity of opinion amongst
the Democrats, and never WAS it possi-
BILE to forecast just what would be done.
The Democrats took one year and five
months to work up and pass their Will

DEMOCRATIC ANARCHIST.
Assassination Preached by an lncen-
diary "NigRer" Halter.

II Democracy has returned to san
ity," as Grover Cleveland asserts, it is
certain the party has not yet purged it
self of something even worse than insan-
ity. Anarchists are a greater curse to
any community than lunatics, for luna
ties are often harmless to society; but
anarchists. by their words and deeds, are
always a menace. Take the case OF Con
gressman j. Y. Hetlin, for instance. He
is an AlHbaman with mouth more dam
gerous than a dozen Czolgoszes. The as
sassin of President Mckinley did not
openly preach anarchism before carrying
out his purpose and thereby incite 9th
ers to slay public men. Hefin is more
cowardly. In recent speech at Tuske-
gee, Ala. the home of Booker Il. Wash
ington, and the negro school conducted
by him, Hefin said:
There they sat Roosevelt and Booker
and il Czolgosz or one of his kind had
thrown a bomb under the table no great
harm would have been done the coun-
try"
OF the report that Booker Washington
was going to help to beat him for cleo
ton to Congress, Heflin said:
"If Booker takes a hand in this thing
it will be one time will ask him to step
cut. l will ask him to hands off, and
you know we have way of influencing
negroes down here"
Hehin, who succeeded Congressman
Thompson. had a fight with his Republi-
can opponent, Captain b. w. Walker, on
Sunday. Smarting under this, he attack
ed Walker fercely in his speech. He de-
scribed him as "a black and tan serpent
kissing at the feet of honest, upright
Democrats" He said it was the desire
of the Republicans to have Walker sent
to Congress so they could say: Here's
friend of Booker Washington, and it
shows how he is looked upon down there
and how the people uphold him."
IF Parker is elected President" he
said. land Booker Washington goes to
Washington, you will find him eating in
the kitchen instead OF the dining room" :"
Hefin said he refused to meet Walker
in joint debate because that would have
recognized him as his equal. He added:
II do not recognize any black and tan
as my equal. will not lower myself to
the level of black and tan who mingles
on equal terms with negroes"
1t avails Helm nothing to say his
bomb talk was intended to be jocular.
The fact remains that it was incendiary
language, such as is made criminal by
the anti-ansrcist law recently passed by
Congress. The Democratic party has
much to answer for, and unless it muz-
zles such blatant "nigger" haters as
Heflin it may have more crimes laid at
its doors. Hehin is one of the leaders
of the party in the South, and his utter
nnces are an indication that Democracy
is, at least. not "safe." even il it is now
sane" as Mr.. Cleveland would have the
people believe.
