A BOSTON IDEA.

Boston has discovered an addition
al reason why the tariff should be
tinkered with just little. 1t finds
that there is an increasing tendency
on the part of the western producers
to send their produce to foreign ports
over southwark roads and out OF
ports on the gulf of Mexico. Boston
would have the surplus from the
farms aud ranges of the west go to
European market through the port
of Boston and it notes with anxiety
the diminishing volume that comes
its way.
1t finds that the southwest rail-
roads are able to transport grain and
stoes. to tldewater at smaller charges
than those exacted by the Boston
wards railroads, because the cars oil
the southwark railroads bring back
lumber on their northward trips.
Boston argues, therefore, that con.
gress should remove the duty of 81
per 1000 on Canadian lumber and in
vite the Canadian lumbermen into
the country to drive the southern
lumbermen out OF the market. Then
the cars that carry the grain and

in the movement. There could only
be one result if the latter move sue.
ceeds viz: The future price of all
fuels will be greatly increased to the
consumer. The price OF hard coal
has never got down to what it was
before the great strike. The SYM
pathy of the public was all with the
laboring man in that stricke and it
has borne the added burden without
much complaint. The miners would
never have secured the advantages
they now possess if it had not been
for the public sentiment But there
is limit, and the limit has been
reached. Another great coal strike
can but result in an additional bur.
den to the public and no benefit to
the laborer. There comes a time
when the operations of organized
labor become oppression for the
public. That time has arrived in
the building trades unions, the coal
unions, and many others. The
public "pays the freight and the
public will object to having the rates
periodically raised and no CORE
spending benefits conferred.

stock of western producers cheaply
to ocean ports woild have no return
trip profits and they would be oblig-
ed to charge the farmers more for
carrying their goods to market and
Boston roads would then be able to
secure large share of the western
shipments for its ports
There is nothing selfish about Bos-
ton. 1t is merely possessed Of bril-
liant economic idea and it likes to
experiment along these lines in the
interest of Boston.
The producers Of thu west would
enjoy the benefit of free Canadian
lumber, but under the Boston plan
all they might gain by cheap build.
ing material would be absorbed in
carrying their products to the worlds
markets by way OF Boston.
They would be willing to consider
disinterested plan for relieving
them of some Of the burdens Of a
tariff maintained for the benefit of
the Boston neighborhood. = Sioux

in one way or another the machine
press is attempting to create the inn
preston that the insurgent republi-
can move in this state is largely of
democratic rigin-anything to hide
the issue before the people. 1t would
not surprise us if there are some in
the move who were formerly demo
Gratis. The fact is there are many
former democrats in both wings OF
the party. And why should there
not be if the principles advocated by
the republican party meet their idea
of good government. 1t is an easy
matter to count number of former
democrats who are now high il the
service of the machine. This is true
both as to state leaders and county
leaders. There are several post
offices in this state held by editors
who once opposed the election of the
republican ticket, or part of it.
These same papers are now bowling
themselves hoarse in trying 10 make
the people believe the insurgent
move is inspired by democrats. In
almost every county there are me n
enlisted in the service of the ma
chine who were formerly in some
other party, some who held Office by
grace Of another party, some who
were candidates against republican
nominees, who even now hold office
by grace of the machine. Again,
there are men high in machine circles
who were anti-machine years ago,
and who openly opposed the
election of at least a part of the re-
publican ticket. Others there are in
the machine who fought the party
organization in their locality because
they wanted to dictated instead Of
allowing the other fellow to control.
The machine never thinks of slurring
itself because it shelters such men.
They are just as good as any other
man in the machine. Consistency is
jewel not recognized by the ma.
chine press.

CONGRESSMAN MARTIN, as a candi-
date for the senate, "points wit b
pride" to the record of his vote in
favor of the Esch- Townsend bill.
However, be fails to put himself on
record as to what will be his attitude
if elected to the senate through the
influence of the railroad and trust
machine. We don't care so much
about what Martin has been as for
what Martin would be in the future.
Let the gentleman put himself on
record.

SOMEONE reports that the German
Empress is an early riser, and that
she sits down to breakfast with her
husband at s o'clock in the morning
both winter and summer. There are
thousands of empresses in this coun
try who can beat that. Some of them
get up at five in the morning, get a
warm breakfast and fill the husbands
dinner pail for the midday meal at
the shops; others arise perhaps at
four o'clock, milk several cows and
have breakfast ready at daylight,
after breakfast they feed the calves,
tend to the chickens, do the house
work and take care of the children.
Our empress line beats the German
all hollow, and its seldom anyone
thinks it worth mentioning.

AT the present time our state de
partment is much worried over the
safety of Secretary Taft and his party
whose plans called for several stops
at Japanese ports. The people of
the United states lent their moral
support to Japan in the war against
our old and faithful friend Russia
and now the Japs are stoning Ameri-
can citizens in return for the friend
ship bestowed upon them. The re
cent riots in japan indicate that the
"yellow peril is not so far distant as
some supposed.

his railroad always oheyed the law.
Thus armed with his selfimposed

THERE are some who are still ad-
miring Japan and talking about
the great moral victory" achieved at
the peace conference when the Japs
voluntarily gave up number of de-
mands "for the sake of peace" and to
"stop the terrible bloodshed." Such
talk looks like thitry cents in the
light of recent events. When the
peace terms became known in Japan
the population become angry to
think their county had not secured a
vast amount of spoils of war. They
did not stop at expressing their in
dignation through resolution an d
lawful methods, but started to riot.
The mobs burned the homes of peace
ENJOYS and some of the prominent
men in home affairs, burned ten
Christian churches, stoned party
of American citizens touring in Japan
and raised the dickens generally.
All this in face of the fact that Japan
pretends to considerable degree of
civilization and that Japan's admir-
ers have made much talk about sac
rificing spoils of waT in order to
secure the much loved peace. Judg
ing from appearances, the much
boasted civilization of japan exists
only among the higher officials who
have been educated in Europe and
the United States.

SUMMER DRINKS.

The vast increase in the consump- tion of summer beverages during the past ten years is fact which demands the attention of the public, writes Prof Louis B. Allyn in Good Housekeeping. This increase may be attributed to two general causes: popular demand for drink which shall be both stim- ulating and nourishing, and cOnscien- tiOuS endeavOr on the part of frSt-claSS druggists and dealers to dispense bev- erages of quality worthy of public confidence.
 It is regrettable that all dealers are not alike in this respect. With some, the sole object in view seems to be the dispensing of drinks at the lowest pos sible cost, irrespective of quality, dis regarding the bealth of the consumer. When, for instance, glass of peach soda is called for, the customer should receive something better than SOlu- tion of glucose and aerated water 1av- ored with an astonishing compound of chloroform, acetic ether and valerian- ate amyl.
 An unsuspecting public, the real pa irons of the soda fountain, will swal- low almost any mixture that appeals to the taste, provided it has no imme- diate injurious effect and that it's name t1ckleS the ear as it's appearance does the eye.
 There is an official statement to the effect that "the real soda water or lem Onade improves the taste and increase the sanitary effect of drinks, and is the best antidote for alcohol and lessens the desire for spirituous liquors. It has a generally exhilarating and in- vigorating effect upon the system; es- sentially promotes digestion, checks too great acidity of the stomach, and is much esteemed remedy in febrile diseases"
 Because of the demand for new and misunderstanding beverages, each year sees the introduction of hundreds, some beneficial, others injurious. These may be roughly divided into two great classes, proprietary and formu- lary. The former include the so-called bracers or "pick-me-ups," the fades" and the nerve food beverages sold from the manufacturers bottles; the latter, those compounded by the dispenser himself.
 With reference to the proprietary specialties it may be stated that great care should be exercised in their use It is well to take the advice of a reli- able druggist or physician regarding them.
