Chewing Gum.

The Episcopal Bishop of Texas estimates
our annual outlay for chewing gum at sixty
millions of dollars. He dealt with the mat
ter somewhat emphatically in the protest
he was uttering against our comparatively
small contribution to foreign missions He
wanted the latter sum increased anG spoke
with fervor of the great merits of the mis-
sion work. His subject was of interest and
he handled it well. Sixty millions of dol
lars annually for chewing gum constitute
a good big sum. and the money might be
better employed. But it is something to
be able To afford it for such a purpose 1t
is certainly much better if the bishop VIII
allow the observation, than chewing the
rag.

Hail to the Chief"

No matter who may come along
The hero of the day.
Hail to the Chief'-that good old song
Is what the band will play.
'Tis now to you that they direct
The melody SO clear.
They played it with the same effect
For some one else last year.
How full of meaning is the blare
AS you step forth TO view;
You half believe that stalwart air
Was written Just for you:
And though you fall back with the crowd
The tune will still De here.
They'll play it just as long and loud
For some one else next year.

Cropping for Remedies.
From the New York Times.


I'VE cannot move legislators crazed with
ambition said Judge Alton B. Parker in
the annual presidential address to the
American Bar Association at Portland,
but the people can and VII do so when
they fully understand the situation" To
the end that the people may better under
stand the situation Judge Parker in his
address stoutiy defended the Constitution
against those who, under the doctrine of
implied powers. certain unmentioned and
inherent powers. which the federal govern
ment may exercise. would break down
its limitations and leave the way open to
unrestricted federal ACKNOWLEDGMENT and
Capitalization. But are the people attend
ing very much to the Constitution? Instead
of checking the frenZied activities of their
legislators do not the people themselves
rather encourage them to get craZier and
to go to yet more reckless extremes in
dealing with abuses cured. curabe, by
reasonable and constitutional means?

SO much for vigorous work along scien-

in the island is perhaps a wholesome ex-
perience. 1t demonstrates that the danger
from the disease is not permanently past
and that incessant vigilance Is necessary
to insure the public health. Possibly it will
impress the Cubans with sufficient force to
raise their own appreciation of the good
effects of modern sanitation. The concep-

Coal 81 Ton-Robbery.

When you purchase coal for heating pur-
poses or for your range you will pay 81 a
ton for it and % cents extra if the coal has
to be carried from the wagon. Seven dol
lars and twenty-five cents for a ton of coal
placed in your bins. That is pure, unadul-
terated robbery. Here We are. here in
Philadelphia, almost the border of the
anthracite coal region. Start train of
al the mines and II will run down hill
of its own volition. Yet the combination
eyacts immense freight rates, one of the
items which make for eXtortion.
Wall street may fume and fret, but when

except the reason of greed they get the
impression somehow that President Roose-
welt Is on the right track when he seeks to
control great corporations in the interests
of the public.

VIII make their home in the future. at
least as long as they can content
themselves away from Mesa and the

his brother. Sam, win remain here. as
the former has a ranch of his own TO
look after. and Sam will take care of
the old homestead until Mr.. North, the

Mr.. Wallace and family came to

at Mesa. During all that time they
have been among Mesa's most highly
estetmed citizens. Progressive. ener-
getic and industrious, they won the
regard of the people of this community
and leave scores of friends In all parts
OF the county who regret to see them
go.
Mr.. Wallace has always taken a
prominent part in the project to secure
a reservoir for the farmers of the val
ley, and devoted much time to pro-
mote the Salt River Valley Water U.s.
ers' Association. He still holds
$50 acres of land under the
irrigation project, and says that he
may return to the valley some day, to
again reside. Just now his idea is to
get couple of years rest. He is en-
thusiastic over the future of this sec
ton and says that in time the valley
will be the most prosperous farming
community on earth.
Mr.. North, the new owner of the
Wallace home, will be accompanied to
Mesa by five to ten other families,
some of whom have purchased the
Telford and other lands near by. They
are contractors and mechanics, and all
people who will make desirable citi-
zens Of the Salt River Valley.
