there is a huge rock with
streams Of ice cold water run

We stopped by this rock and
ate our llnch.and watered and
fed our team. The rock is
called Spring Rock. 1t il 49,

other day Ida and took the
ponies and rode up to the saw
mill, about five miles from our
camp. We saw a lake or pond
of logs ready to be shot up the
logway. The mill was not rum
ming the day we were there.
Talk about timber there are
thousand of acres of it going
to waste. Looks like things
are not equally divided in this
world. In Iowa we can't get
enough wood to burn and have
to use the pesky corn cob that
takes one PERSONS time to keep
the stove filled if you want any
fire. Some of our people use
the gasoline stove and I am
much in favor of them, but my
hubby is afraid of them, so to
keep his nerves steady we use
the cookstovc and burn cobs

cults too) Suppose that you
would like to know what the
members of our camp are doing
while Ida and | are sight see

time fishing for mountain trout.
That is too hard work for me
as you have to keep walking all
the time. You can't sit in one
place all day and catch fish like
you can at the lakes at home.

manifestation of loyalty and patriot.

right now.
If We are to win q victory and
elect a President two years hence,
we must first elect q House of Repre-
sentatives this fall. A Democratic
House can and viii investi gate every
department. Of the Government.
With all of them honeycombed by
graft. the edges Of which, only,
have been touched by recent exposure
and prosecutions, there will be q re.
velat1on of bitterness that will as.

10 defray legitimate expenses and gei
out our vote. We have no Protested
monopolies from which to draw to iil]
our offers, AZ they do those of the Re.
publican party. We must, therefore,
appeal to loyal Democrats for oontri.

STANDARD OIL HOCUS POCCs

STANDARD OIL HOCUS POCCS.
The Standard Oil Company has been
indicted for violating the law prohi-
biting rebates; but no individual Is to
be punished. The corporation may be
fined q few thousand dollars, ard the
price of oil put up a cent or two on
the gallon. That's all. The people
will pay the bills. If the men guilty
Of the nineteen separate o6fenses
charged in the Indictment were prose-
cuted and sent to jail as they should
be, the people would have less to pay,
and less cause to complain of favorit-
ism in the administration of justice.
If there were d. mocrstic president,
the criminals would soon be serving
their country in striped uniforms, and
there would be no such actual justi'
fcstion of the socialistic propaganda.
What do monopolists care for fines,
when they can recoup, the money 80
paid by increasing the price Of their
products1 The whole proceeding at
Chicago Is only bit Of eleotionear-
ing hocus pocus.

THE TARIFF ON WHEAT.

The price of trusts and tariff pro-
tected products Is still advancing,
while the price Of farm products,
especially wheat, IS declining. Now
wheat like iron and steel and nearly
everything else Is taxed in the tariff
schedules, but the protection theory
seems to work to the disadvantage of
the wheat producer. What he buys
costs more and more, what he sells is
cheaper. The reason for this shows
the fallacy and unjustness of the pro-
tective system, for it plumbers the
farmers for the benefit of q few trusts
and combines, that are enabled by the
tariff to raise the price of their pro.
ducts, to just below the point where
similar foreign products could be i'm
ported and pay the tariff tax and be
sold in competition with the trust
products.
The wheat farmer has no such op.
portunity to increase the price Of the
wheat he raises. He is compelled to
take the price that the wheat buyers
offer, or Keep 1t In his grainery or
store it in the elevators, both of
which IS costly. The price of wheat
varies according to the amount raised
and the surplus for eale in the mar
kets Of the world. Every country
that raises more wheat than its people
can use must export that surplus to
ENGLAND and those European countries
that do not raise enough to supply
their own people. The price Of
wheat lie therefore fixed by the law of
supply and demand. With go crops
everywhere the price of wheat is low,
with poor crops the price is hi gh
It has happened for the past few years
that the wheat crop in countries ether
than the United States, has been
short and the crop here either good
or moderately 80 and there has there
fore been q greater demand for Amer
lean whest and a high price paid for
it. This year there is hamper crop
here and fair crops elsewhere 50 the
price has declined.
The absurdity of the republican
claim that the tariff of 26 cents q
bushel on wheat and the tariff on
corn and oats protects the farmers is
apparent. But the fact that the
farmer has to pay more for all be
buys because the tariff prevents free
competition, must be still more appar-
ent when the bills are paid.
