Then and Now

Nothing is as it was in those good
old days says an old Iowa editor.
Then boy was boy, he wore over.
alls and was always dressed for work
He had half days work to do before
going to school, and another after his
return, and you could kick him ten
feet and he would bound back. Now
boy is kid When he gets ready
to go to school he can't bring in a
pail Of water for fear of spelling his
clothes. Ii he gets home before the
evening meal is done, something is
wrong, and if you keep him at home
after p. m, you will require a gat.
ting gun. Then the clothing was
made at home, and the only way you
could tell which was front or rear, was
to watch the frontpiece of the cap.
The clothing was so loose that he
could turn around in it after putting
it on, and thus fool his best friends.
Our sisters worked then and helped to
cook, wash, mend and all other kind
Of work. Now they have good luck II
they get their buds on in time to eat
breakfast and go to school. When
the preacher came, the boys and girls
were expected to sit up as strai ght as

spoken to. Now they are brought to
the front and put through PAGES. The
girl must knock few bars out of the
piano, and the boy must speak his
piece and look like sick monkey
begging for raisins. Everything is
progressive. They used to get married
for 81 and begin keeping house on $50.
The bride made her own clothes and
the groom's mother made his. One
suit lasted year for good and two
for every day. They rocked the baby
to sleep in sap trough and had a
chunk OF salt pork for dessert. The
whole community could work sixteen
hours and then go to 'shindig,' and
old and young dance till daylight.
They had no brain storms heart
failures, or appendicitis. Brain
storms were cured with a water elm
club, heart failure was called fits
and appendicitis was called 'belley-
ache They rolled the sufferer ON
barrel Jr applied hot brick, and no
one knew he had q ve.iform 'duficker'
that was liable to get full Of cherry
stones or ground-cherry seeds. We
used to eat soup and have sass of all
kinds. Now we eat fruit salad and

someone had sat on 'em. We used
to nave breai made with 'risin' that
smelled like a glue factory when il

flour ground into nothing but dust.
One suspender was enough for any
boy. And il the girls chewed gum
they had to climb a tamarack tree and
dig it out with a screw driver. Pro-

Those old pioneers were as happy as
any people on EARTH they needed less
than a quarter Of the luxuries of today
and had six time the necessities
They neither froze in the billiards nor
roasted in the heat, being too tough to
be affected seriously by either cold or

Lightning Shaved Him.

A special from Shelbyville, KY,
says: with Ak on his shoulder, Lige
Huffman was returning home from
work, when he was struck by light
ming, which removed his beard and hair
as smoothly as it could have been done
by razor. When found he was walk
ing around IN a small circle in a dazed
condition with blood flowing from his
mouth and nose. He was bareheaded,
with the rim of his hat around mis-
neck, the rest of his hat having been
completely burned. The ground where
he had fallen when struck showed
signs that he mad rolled over and over
for some time. 3"

Threatening Panic.

Whenever the people show any dis
position to stop the extortion practiced
by the trusts and trust magnates
threaten to bring panic if they are
disturbed. They learn it from the
tariff barons who have for a genera
ton warded off tariff reform by the
threat of panic.
Now come the manipulators of our
great railroad systems and threaten
panic if they are interfered with. The
trust magnates, the traiff barons and
the railroad magnates have their hands
in the pockets of the people and they
demand that they shall be permitted
to continue their exploitation of the
public as the price at which they will
allow the people to enjoy prosperity.
Have we reached the point where all
I legislation must await the consent of
the benefciaries of privilege and favor
Itism? Is this the condition to which
the Republicans have brought the
country? The sooner reform comes the
easier it will be accomplished-tEe
longre it is delayed the more radical
the charge.

Think II Over.

In a speech delivered at jamestown,
Governor Hughes of New York said !:
Political leaders who have performed
the function of clearinghouse for
legislation, and who while posing as
party workers have served under re.
tainer of special interests, careless
alike of party principles or of public
justice, are passing from the stage. !"
They 'are passing from the stage, .
are they? Undoubtedly that is what
the representatives of special interests
would have US believe. But even now
it is generally believed that these same
special interests will dominate the Re-
publican National Convention, even as
they dominate the Republican United
States Senate.
Governor Hughes must be humor-
list. How many among the possible
nominees of the Republican National
Convention are Objectionable to the
great corporation? Look at the list
and think it over.

Good Form OF Government.

Our form of government is good.
Call it democracy if you are Demo.
crat, or republic if you are a republi-
can, but help to make it government
of the people, by the people and for
the people. A democracy is wiser than
an aristocracy because a democracy can
draw from the wisdom of the people.
and all of the people know more than
any part of the people. A democracy
is stronger than monarchy because,
as the historian, Bancroft, has said !:
at dares to discard the implements of
terror and build its citadel in the
hearts of men," And a democracy is
the most just form of government be-
cause it is built upon the doctrine that
men are created equal, that govern
ments are instituted to protect the in
aIienable rights of the people, and
that governments derive their just
powers from the consent of the govern

The Lumber Supply.

Lumber men in the United States
are cutting four times as much lumber
each year from the forests of the coun-
cry as nature is supplying. The aver
age American uses some four hundred
feet of lumber each year, as agains
but sixty feet used by his European
neighbors. Lumber prices are JUS
twice as high as they were in 1900
andt he tendency is still upward. Me
in the lumber business are beginning
to look at the problem seriously. The
Federal forest reserves are recently in
creased by President Roosevelt com
prise an area greater than the total
area of the Republic of France or the
German Empire in Europe, each sup
plemented by the Netherlands but
even with these precautions the most
careful and conservative estimates
show that the lumber supply will be
practically exhausted in from thirty t.
forty years.

Another Raise On Cotton Thread.

The following is an illustration of
how trusts get to the great common
people. Cotton thread which retailed
for five cents a spool until the ad-
vance, June 20, when retail dealers
were forced to put the price up to six
cents a spool, is soon to be advanced
again so that the retail price will be
ten cents.
Cotton thread which is one of the
most staple articles in domestic use, is
manufactured by a combine and in
creased cost OF raw material and an
advance in employers wages are the
reasons given blythe manufacturers for
the advance.
Local merchants declare that neither
of thesreasons is good for when cotton
was selling at a much higher price
than at present, thread was selling at
five cents spool and many merchants
who made a leader of the staple, sold
thread at six spools for quarter.
A corresponding increase in the price
of calicoes and all other cotton goods
is looked for by the merchants as prac-
tically the same combine and the same
conditions govern the manufacture of
all cotton Goods

Not Much In The South.

The editor of the st. Louis Globe
Democrat appears to be on the verge of
nervous prostration these days, and his
tender feelings have been lately lace
rated by the statement of the Chicago
Tribune that, there is no Republican
party in the So-called Southern States. -
One can hardly blame the Globe Demo
crat for getting excited about it, for it
is so evidently true that outside of the
Federal officeholders there is not much
to be found of the Republican party in
the South. For instance, at the eau
cuses in New Orleans lately there were
only about 700 votes cast and there are
over 700 Republican office holders.
