You men who dared to ex- pend your energy in levelng the wastes of land, upon which scarcely brush would grow for lack of moisture. And then applied the water that came through the ditches you had dug. prov ing to the world that this trackless waste was but an endless storehouse of human food and clothing only waiting for the strong and fearless hand of labcr to fashion it for use. You men whom Mir. Post says have created nothing. It was all done in the mind of someone who hired labor. And moreover tine Imperial Valley will be developed until the 5000 acres of alfalfa will increase to 100000 acres or more, the difficulties which you farmers experience in irri- gating and planting at wrong seasons and the wrong kind of crops will all be overcome; but for all that you will produce nothing. Al that you have. all that you may build has already been given bith to in the minds of some capitalists. They have already created it and that is why you get only your living while you are executing the designs of another. Why should you murmur, you are on y a seller of labor. But be careful, don't read any Socialist literature, you might develop desire to use your mind and then-well that would be terrible. Mir. Post might be obliged to carry some boards himself.

Posts Logic in Imperial

MT. Post of Postum Cereal fame, who so freely tells the workers what he thinks of them through the columns of the capitalist press, was very frank in a speech before the assembled National Manufacturers association in Atlanta few days ago. He said, CA workman carries some boards to the building, and a horse hauls some more. Which Creates" and to which should the building partly belong? both work and both execute but neither originate or create any wealth whatever. Both are paid an agreed, understood and equiv alent for their services. The horse his oats, hay and water, and the workman his money. The brick k seller, lumber merchant, glass maker and workman who sells his labor all belong to the same class of sellers of material needed but none of them are creators of that building.
 Physical labor is not creator. Mind is the only creator When the workman ceases selling his labor and starts to originating designs himself and hiring others to execute them, he becomes creator of wealth."
 Now Mir Worker you see you are defined a nondescript, nonentity who creates nothing, and therefore has as much right as has the horse. The horse gets his oats and you get your money. You don't use your mind, you create nothing no matter how much labor you do. "Nlind is the only creator." When you are hirel- ing and executing the designs of another you don't use your mind see.
 How is all this going to fit with you, Mir Farmer, that toll so long and ardously. Executing the plans con ceived in the mind of someone in some office, for the reclamation of the Colorado desert.

Airs. III. WriQhf

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a
kind of dyspepsia that is caused by a
arrangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb
ance similar to ordinary indigestion,
cannot be relieved without a medicine
which not only acts as a stomach tonic,
but has peculiar uterine-tonic effects
also.
AS proof of this theory we call at
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y. who was
completely cured by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
"For two years 1 suffered with dyspepsia
which so degenerated my entire system that l
was unable to attend to my daily duties. I
felt weak and nervous, and nothing that late
tasted good and it caused a disturbance in my
stomach. l tried different dyspepsia cures,
but nothing seemed to help me. / was adj
vised to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound a trial, and was happily surprised
to fin1 that it acted like a fine tonic, and in a
fewGays | began.t to enjoy and properly digest
my food. Ny recovery was rapid, and in
five weeks I was a well woman. / have rec
commended it to many suffering women"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
fed endorsement or hassuch a recordo of
cures of female troubles, as has Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

ton aroused more interest than any
previous election in Kansas City, Kas.,
and it was notable because of the ac-

THE EARTHQUAKE IN INDIA.
REPORTS show widespread Damage
and Loss of Life in the
Earthquake Zone.

Calcutta, April 6.-Reports from
many towns which are now arriving
show widespread damage and many
fatalities. This is especially the case
at Tirozpur (47 miles southeast of La
hore), Amritsar, Tarana, Dehra Dun
and Sprinagar, at which places many
natives were killed or injured, the to-
tai being between rs and 100.
Personal stories from Mussooree
state that the reverberation which pre-
coded the shock never will be forgot
ten by those who heard it. The noun
tains heaved and swayed a full min
ute, and then three severe shocks, last
ing a few seconds, were felt in quick
succession. Between six O'Clock in the
morning of April 4 and midnight there
clear, and most of the inhabitants
were already up when the first shock
came. Those who were still in bed
described the molten as being like that
of a ship in a storm, while those on
foot found it impossible to maintain
their balance. Many narrow escapes
are reported. The effect of the shock
in sickness and dizziness, with many
still continues. A number of people
sat or slept out of doors during the
whole of Wednesday night.

CHICAGO AND COOK COUNTY.
Result of tuesdays Election rs
Shown by the Full and Final
UnOficiaI Heturns.

Chicago, April 6.-The full returns
show that Judge Dunno was elected
mayor at Tuesdays election by "a, Q61
plurality. The other officers elected
we're: City treasurer, F. w. Block,
democrat; city clerk, Adrian c. Arson,
democrat; city attorney, John F.
Smulski, republican. The latter~won
on his popular personality. His plu-
rality was less than 5000.
On the entire county ticket, which
included judges of the circuit and su-
perior courts, coroner and clerks OF
courts, republican pluralities ranged
from 10000 to 100000.
The socialist vote was heavier than
had been anticipated, running nea 20
600.
The present city council has a re-
publican majority of two. Indications
are the republicans will control the
next council, so that Judge Dunno will
have opposition in controlling legisla-
ton. Judge Dunno was formerly a
Bryan democrat.
Chicago has declared in favor of the
SIS, 900. 900 bond issue for a new court
house. The votes cast for the propo-
sition were 1926 and those against
sc. 341. leaving a plurality of 34.935.

tire legal vote of the ward.

TO COMPETE WITH STANDARD
Thirty Independent Oil Companies
to Form a Company to Pipe
and Refine Oil.

Chaunte, Kas., April 8.-Representa-
tives Of so independent oil companies
which control three-fourths of the oil
production of Kansas, met here, Fri
day, and decided to form a company
representing 81, 000, 900 of invested cap
ital, to build a fuel oil pipe line from
the Kansas oil field to Kansas City,
and to construct a refinery and storage
tank in that city.
The company to be formed will be
the only n which will compete with
the Standard Oil Co. for the markets
of the middle west. The producers de-
cided that a consolidation of all their
interests is the only salvation of the
Independent operators in Kansas. Two
months ago the producers appointed a
committee to investigate the fuel oil
market at Kansas City and the cost OF
a pipe lire to that point. The reports
of this committee Influenced the pro-
ducers to form a company and COM
mence the construction of a pipe line
and refinery at once The Standard
Oil Co., it is said, had a force OF men
here watching the proceedings of the
independent producers. The Standard
forces announced that the presence OF
these people was merely a coincidence.
There were present at the meeting rep
resentatives of companies operating in
the Indian territory, but only Kansas
companies will be represented in the
- 10 oxropi1o1
1t is believed that the organization
of the Independent operators into a
company will insure a market for the
Kansas producers independent OF the

Allegations Made Against the Chi
cage Telephone Co.. in an Effort
to AHnuI It's Charter.

Chicago, April 6.-An effort to have
the courts declare the charter of the
Chicago Telephone Co. forfeited has
been begun by States Attorney Hcaly
or quo warranto proceedings in the
circuit court. Mr.. Healy wished to
file information in the case at once, but
Judge Mack refused to allow this to be
done until the telephone company had
been duly notified. The matter there
fore went over until Saturday morn
ings. The attempt to force a forfeit
of the company's charter is based on
two allegations:
First, that the company has charged
$50 and S175 a year for the use of
telephones when its franchise fixes the
maximum charge at 1925; second, that
the company has charged toll rates on
telephone calls between points lying
within the city limits in direct viola
ton of the provisions Of its franchise.

EPIDEMIC OF MENINGITIS.
Two Important Facts Developed in
Connection With the Epidemic
in New York.

New York, April 6.-Two facts OF
great importance have come to light
in connection with the meningitis
commission in this city.
One is that the meningitis germ this
year is entirely different from all pre-
conceived notions.
The other is that the ordinary ami
mails used in laboratory work are inn
mune to the germs. So far, the only
animals which have been successfully
in~oculated are mice, which are too
small for practical use in supplying a
serum.
The number of adults who have died
in New York city during the past
month indicates that some change has
come about, rendering them more sus
ceptible.

SHE DENIES The SHOOTING
Miss Grace Vest Says She Didn't
Shoot Paul Druckemiller.
Antc-MOrtem Statement, Charged
Her with the Deed.

st. Joseph, Mo-, April 7.-Despite
Paul Z. Druckemiller's ante-mortem
statement that Miss Grace Vest shot
him, the young woman declares the
tragedy as much a mystery to her as
to anyone.
Her story is that D~ruckemiller, who
was chief clerk in the bureau of animal
industry, and roomed at Miss Vests
house, was alone, SO far as she knows,
in his room at the time of the shoot
ing. She says she heard a shot and,
rushing to the room, found Druckemil-
Ter writhing on the door.
He was wounded in the side, and so
far back that physicians say it would
have been impossible for him to have
fired the shot himself.
Police Sergeant Kelley, the first Of
icer to reach the dying mans side.
found a bottle of strychnine near him.
Miss Vest explains that Druckemiller
asked for the poison to end his suffer-
ing. The police express the opinion
that Miss Vest tried to administer it
after falling to kill the young man
with a revolver.
Druckemiller's account was that
Miss Vest shot him because he refused
to leave his wife and elope with her.
Letters which passed between Drucke-
miller and the woman indicate that
such a request was made.

The people of the United States are
still land hungry. Notwithstanding
the fact that, according to Commits
sioner of the General Land Office "
A. Richards, there are approximately
49, 600 acres of vacant Incorporated
land, excluding Alaska, pressure is
constantly brought to bear upon con-
gress for the opening of lands hitherto
set aside for the Indians. One Indian
reservation after another is being
thrown open to public settlement, the
aboriginal occupants being given
farms in severalty if they desire to
live the lives of white men.

COMMERCIAL CONDITIONS.
They Are Generally Favorable Ex-
cent in the South, Where Cotton
Planting is Back ward.

New York, April S.-Bradstreet's
weekly review says:
Trade, grain crop and industrial re-
ports are in the main very favorable,
exceptions being quoted in the south,
where cotton planting is backward and
a reduced acreage is expected, and at
a few points in the west, where inclem-
ent weather and bad roads tend to
check the otherwise full tide of spring
activity. Western merchants who,
earlier in the season, bought conserva-
lively, are now bordering freely.
Money continues easy at most points.
Collections show improving tendencies,
though many cities report them only
fair.
