Public and Cheap
Lands are Scarce

The time is near at hand when
free lands and cheap lands will
be a thing of the past says the
Farmer, and a man who wants a
farm will have to pay a fair price
for it. Good lands all over the
United States are rapidly and
constantly increasing in value
and the price 4lor certain kinds
of good land is getting to be
more uniform. That is to say a
certain kind Of land which is a
certain distance from railroad or
town and with certain market adj
vantages is gong to be worth a
certain price per acre, no differ
ence in what part of the country
it may be located. There are not
going to be low prices in one.
section Of the country and high
price in another section for the
same quality of soil, but the
prices will be uniform. In other
words land values are going TO
be on a stable and permanent
basis and the speculative feature
will be eliminated. Farm values
will soon be established in equil-
ibrium and a food of land SEEK
ers will seek in vain for land
bargains. The man who wants
good farm land as an investment
will therefore have to buy it4in
the near future. Farmers in the
central states such as Illinois,
Iowa and southern Minnesota
have accumulated wealth through.
the increase of value in their
farm lands. This rise in price
liz termed the 'tunearned incre-
ment" and it represents a large
share of the money actually made
by central state farmers. But
the chance to accumulate such
wealth will soon be a thing of
the past due as we say to the
uniform adjustment of farm
values all over the United States.
There are several classes OF
people that ought to take adj
vantages Of present opportunities
to buy land. First there is the
great band of foreign irnni-
grants and the city's unemploy-
| ed who want a new and free
farm home. We have room for,
land can assimilate with profit,
the right kind of immigrants.
The second class Of people that
can buy land are those farmers
who have made their money i'm

farms and who realize that prices

lrise in years to come. JIG their
farms have risen in value to
maximum prices, they can make
Imore money by moving to new
lundevsioped sections than they
can make in interest on their
thigh priced farms. JIG they are

People with children who are
thinking of locating in the city
will find the public schools of
such character as to be a strong
inducement for making a perma-

several years.

The crowds that come to Chau-
tauqua should have some induce

They could do it without missing
any part of the program if there
were proper transportation taci-

One of the most awful exhibitions OF

There were over go passengers on
board and a crew OF thirty men. When
the lists were made out II was found
that eighty one persons were killed.

The cause OF the disaster was the
overwhelming ambition OF the owners,

How great this force was Is shown

The Illinois Steel Co., located near Burlington,
Indiana has under consideration plan to build a
town costing about thirty million dollars. Accord
ing to the press dispatches the main features of this
proposed model town follows "The town is
to be built on the lines Of the most advanced and
scientific ideas of municipal reform It will contain
besides model workmen's dwellings, public baths,
laundres kitchens, and other municipal enterprises
and will have theatre and large assembly hall for
meetings of every description"
When capital SO generously recognizes the dig
nifty of labor there is to believe that the feel
ing between employer and employee will, in the
future, be more harmonious than at any period in
the past It is tacit admission that the actual pro-
ducers of wealth entitled few of the pleasures
now enjoyed by promoters. It also will have a
salutary effect in counteracting the utterances OF
such men as "divine right" Baer. In building such
town for the comfort of its workmen, this company
is following the good example set by other concerns
In time it is to be hoped that such enterprises

will be the rule instead of the exception.

When airships are reality they will cause a

navies will become obsolete or practically SO. Rail-
roads will lose almost their entire passenger traffic,
as it will be impossible for them to compete with

be other momentous changes, but it is trife early
to speculate on an uncertain venture.

RALPH WALDO EMERSON has said: "A foolish
consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds" How
true this is of those who denounce the cigarette
maitland other evils too numerous to mention
and remain profoundly silent in regard to the great
est evil yet exploited, the patent medicine sham.
Certain magazines devoted exclusively to educating
the people from the slavery of the drink evil un-
Willingly accept advertising from that are
now known to be frauds. The decoctions that some
of these concerns have placed on the market, are
nothing less than dope. Altho most of them are
accompanied by guarantees and testimonials, the
fact has been established beyond doubt that these
decoctions claim more victims than they produce
cures.
Considering the facts that are now being pub
shed in regard to this awful traffic. it will not be
long before such swindles unmasked and their
authors placed in durance. There is where they be-
long, for they the worst type of criminals that
any civilized country can show. 1t is true that
many eminent people engaged in promoting
patent medicines However, it is their dollars that
have made them eminent-not the miraculous
"cures" caused by the taking of their DOPE
If the people we're acquainted with the patent
medicine they use, they would soon stop buying it.
When those who advertise 1t realize their part in
furthering these impostions and the deaths result
ing therefrom, they will refuse to accept such
advertisements. Those who are considered public
spirited citizens, but willingly help to impose upon
the people such sure-thing for consumption as
patent medicine practice what Emerson aptly desig-
nates foolish consistency.

inauguration Day.
IT is expected that Congress will soon take the
necessary steps toward changing the date on which
the president is inaugurated Instead of March 18th,
it has been proposed to hold the inaugural cere-
monies on the last Thursday in April.
Undoubtedly such measure will be enacted, as
the movement has thousands Of supporters in every
state in the Union. The inclemency Of the weather
in the past has prevented many from attending this
history making event; and not few persons con-
tracted colds and pneumonia from which they died.
So far there has been valid reason advanced for
not making the change. The principal reason why
