That the pound rate of postage,
allowed newspapers, is in no wise re-
sponsible for the postal deficit, as is
sometimes charged, is clearly set forth
in brief just filed with the congress
sional commission on postal matters
by the American Publishers associa-
ton. Express companies and railroads
make newspapers the same rate that
is made by the postoffice department,
and no one would be likely to accuse
either of these corporations of doing
business at loss AS a matter of fact,
these companies must find a reasonable
profit in the business of carrying news
papers at one cent pound, for they
are glad to get the business. That
there are a good many publications ad-
mitted to second class rates, which are
not entitled to them, will be conceded,
and if the postofiice department wants
to accomplish some real reform, it win
weed out these publications, but wiz
still allow the daily and weekly news
papers to have the rates by means of
which it is possible to make low rates
of subscription.

Sfro1C Points Made by Roosevelt.

'rThe doctrine the corporation law
vers nreach would make the constitu-
ton merely the shield of incompetence
and the excuse Of governmental paraly-
sis: they treat it as justification Tor
refusing to attempt the remedy OF EVIL,
instead of as the source of vital power
necessary for the existence of mighty
and ever-growing nation.
actual experience has shown that
the states are powerless to deal with
the subject of corporate wealth; and
any action or decision that depriVes the
nation of the power to deal with 1t SIM
Div results in leaving the corporations
absolutely free to work without any ef-
fective supervision whatever; and such
a course is fraught with untold danger
to the future of our whole system of
government, and, indeed, to our whole
civilization.
can honest men must abhor and rep
rebate any effort to excite hostility to
men of wealth as such. We should do
all we can to encourage thrift and BUSH
ness energy, to put premium upon
TIE conduct of che man who honestly
earns his livelihood and more than his
livelihood. and who honestly uses the
money he has earned. But 1t is our
clear duty to see, in the interest of the
people, that there is adequate supervls-
ion and control over the business use of
the swollen fortunes of today, and also
wisely to determine the conditions I'M
der which fortunes are to be transmit
ted and the percentage which they
shall pay to the government whose pro
tecting arm alone enables them to ex-
list. Only the nation can do this work.
To reegate it to the states is farce,
and is simply another way of saying 1t
shall not be done at all. y
'JInder "A wise and far-seeing inter
probation of the interstate commerce
clause Of the constitution | MAINTAIN
that the national government should
have complete power to deal with all OF
this wealth which in any manner goes
into the commerce between the states
and practically all Of it that is employed
in the great corporations does thus go
in. -
"The government ought not to con-
duct the business of the country; but it
ought to regulate it so that it shall be
conducted in the interest of the public. -

Money Enough In The WeSf.

For years the west has depended on
the eastern financial centers for money
to move its crops. 1t is an interesting
fact that the farmers of the middle
west have money enough this year to
nearly, if not quite, move their own
crops. 7. V. Collins, editor of the
Northwestern Agricuturist at Mime
apois, reports conversation he had
recently with Major +. +. Critchheld,
the well known advertising agent in
Chicago. Major Critchfield related to
Mr.. Collins the following incident:
Il play golf sometimes with Mr. For
gan, one Of the leading bankers Of Chi
cage, and he was telling us that he had
received a telegram from Seligman, the
New York banker, asking how much
money Mr.. Forgans bank could use
this year in moving the crops, and he
answered, Not a cent Some years
this bank has gotten from Seligman 5
bank, said Mr.. Forgan, as much as
twenty-eight millions of dollars to move
the crops. We would loan it to the coun-
try banks and they to the farmers, but
now all that is done, The farmers do,.' t
have TO borrow the cash, they have it
themselves The farm mortgage bust
ness in the west is dead.
The above statement is capable of
furnishing some very suggestive tniuE-
inc on various lines

High Prices for farm Products.

The prices for nearly all farm pro
ducts are uniformly high this year, and
they promise to continue SO for some
time 20 come. A study of export fig
ures shows that commodities of this
class are being sent abroad in a very
generous manner, and as It IS obviously
impossible to "eat your cake and have
it too. the amount left for home con
sumption, while entirely adequate is
nevertheless being kept down whore
there is little danger Of so-called over
supply, thereby Cutting the market
and having a tendency to break prices
to lower level. In other words, it is
the old law of supply and demand

YEARS ago when the steamer Great
Eastern was built she was considered a
wonder, whereas recent achievements
in the ship builders art Indicate that
she was simply ahead Of her time. For
instance, the steamer Mauretania,
which has just been launched on the
Tyne, is ninety-eight feet longer and
eight feet wider than was the Great
Eastern, thus giving her 1900 tons
more displacement. Today the Great
Eastern would be regarded as very
ordinary boat.

Now and then is heard criticism Of
McGovern for coming out as an indie
pendent candidate for district attorney
in Milwaukee. 1t matters little to the
Tribune or it's readers who is Milwau-
KEGS district attorney, but compare
McGovern's case with that of Jerome's
in New York city. Both, in seeking a
denomination from their party, were
turned down. Jerome was urged by the
people, regardless Of party affiliations,
to run as an Independent. He did, and
was elected by handsome majority,
whereat expressions of satisfaction came
from all sections of the country. Is
not the McGovern case quite similar
in view of the fact that thousands of
his fellow citizens have earnestly re-
duested him to take this stand.
