get the aglet to look on him as his friend and to regard the Ferguson house as his home. After the eagle was tame Tom began to teach him to use the field glasses. Tom hung the glasses about the birds neck and in little while the eagle got so that he would pick the glasses up in one claw, hours exploring the country round about.
 By the time the eagle reached this stage he was pretty we'll grown and the winter had really set in. Tom judged it was time to put his protege's training to some practical advantage.
 Scientific instruments, loving care, and training under the eye of the best guide in the north woods have been lavished on you,' he said to the eagle. Seek the freedom of the skies and search for birds This is your home, so bring the trophies of the chase back here. I prefer ducks, but I'll take anything. We'll divide the spells between us, and I'll take care that the good man who owns you don't get the worst end of it.
 "The eagle flew up. As soon as he was clear of the ground he lifted the glasses to his eyes and began his search for secluded ducks Toms idea of using the field glasses evident ly was a good one. Another eagle had been flying about, high in air, looking for game and not finding any. But the minute Toms bird was fairly up, with the increased field given him by the glasses, he saw duck and started for it.
 "The duck that the trained eagle started after was evidently a long ways off, for it had been out of sight of the other eagle. But eagles are swift flyers, and it wasn't long before Toms pet came winging back, the duck in his claws and the field glasses dangling from his neck. He deposited the duck in Toms yard. Then he started to eat it. But Tom didn't see it that way.
 'The tame eagle didn't seem over and above pleased at having the duck

porate Abuses.

these aggreg ations of wealth the liber-
ty Of the average individual is being
protected. The attack on corporate
wrong doing is not an assault on legi-
innate industry. No man or corpor-
alton doing an honest business need
fear the arousing of the conscience of
the people against wrongdoing. It is
not railroads nor insurance companies
the people complain of, but the breach
es of trust on the part of those run
ming railroad companies. While
some railroad men and some insur-
ance men are crooked, just as some
public officials are crooked, it does not
follow that all railroad men or all ia
surance men or all public officials are
without honor. The eradication of
lawless privilege from business helps
rather than hurts legitimate industry.
SIN the fight against the privilege of
lawlessness there have arisen ques-
tions between the federal and state
governments as to the construction of
the powers of each. If the people of
the states cannot be trusted to enact
valid laws with respect to corpora
tions, by what process of reas soning
can it be assured that they haze the
capacity to legislate for the individual
citizens. The states create the cor
porations. Shall they be denied the
control of their creatures? The regu-
lation of Interstate commerce must
necessarily be by the federal govern
ment, but as to commerce within the
states it is the righJ and duty of the
state to regulate it.
''The danger to the integrity of the
states can best be checked by the states
exercising their rights of self-govern-
ment in the enactment of good laws,
and enforcement of those laws.
''This is the greatest nation in the
world, but it is no greater than the
states that compose it. It is great be-
cause it is a nation of self-governing
states. Let us keep it so, for it's de-
cline will commence when the self-gov-
ernment of the states, the fountain OF
its strength, is taken away.
In a sense, every governmental
question is question of right or
wrong. The tariff is moral ques-
tion. A tariff, deliberately designed
to create monopoly and to give a few
people the right to prey upon the rest
of the people, is prohibited by the
moral law-the law of conscience. But

Senator Foraker in recent address
reviewed with alarm the desire, which.
he claims, is prevalent in certain parts
of the country for change to broader
Interpretation of the national consti-
tuition. He said:
"To say that the constitution or any
part of it has become obsolete is
simply to deal in rhetoric which vio-
lates sentiment as we'll as contradicts
facts.
ssNo greater calamity could befall
this country than for it to so change
its constitution as to authorize the
federal government to deal with all or
any considerable part of the subjects
| over which the states receive control.
Themany powers of the federal govern
ment conferred directly and by impli-
cation to deal with national and inter-
national affairs call for more legisla-
tion than it is possible for congress
to carefully consider, thoroughly de-
bate and properly enact.
eff we were to have these powers en-
larged SO as to take away from the
states the subjects of legislation in
any considerable number which now
belong to the states, or are reserved
to the people, it would mean that the
government at Washington would be
simply swamped, unless, while we were
amending the constitution to make
such change, we should also pro-
vide for a less representative and more
autocratic method of enacting laws
and exercising federal power, and that,
it may be presumed, the American peo-
], pie will not be willing to do SO long
as they appreciate American liberty.
'sThe subjects that properly belong
to the states can be better dealt with
by the states-I mean more intelli-
! gently dealt with, because state legis-
lators are more directly in contact
with such subjects and more familiar
with what proper treatment of them
may require.
81 do not know any tendency more
unfortunate than that, which is rapidly
growing, of every m an who has a griev-
ance, real or imaginary, rushing off
to Washington with his tale of woe
and in search of relief. don't know
surer way to bring our federal
government to failure disrepute and
overthrow than to saddle on it, if
we could, the innumerable powers and
duties that have been suggested, nor
New Ulm review., 1907-09-25

In an address delivered last week at
the jamestown exposition Gov. Folk
of Missouri spoke along the following
lines:
'The magical age in which we live
is the result of the idea that the llber-
ty of the individual is right, not a
privilege. From this principle has
come universal education and the rec
ognition of the rights Of the masses as
opposed to the privilege of the classes.
The nearer we keep to this idea, the
more real progress we shall make.
s'Our civilization differs from those
that have gone before in that it is a
civilization Of the individual; civili-
zation that demands the education of
all, not of few; a civilization of equal
rights instead Of privilege. When we
depart from these moral principles,
our nation will go as others have gone
during the flight of time through the
ages. Nations have died, not for lack
of wealth, but for lack of men; not for
lack of money, but for lack Of morals;
not for want of material wealth, but
for lack of moral wealth; vice fol-
lowed, then decay. The perpetuity Of
this government rests not on the great
wealth of the few, but upon the moral
ity and integrity of the average indi-
vidual.
''The greatest enemy to the liberty
Of the individual is privilege-the pri.
vilege of lawlessness, the privilege con-
ferred by law and the privilege OF
monopoly. There has been a great
awakening Of the public conscience
during the past few years as to the
privilege of lawlessness. This public
conscience goes marching on day by
day, correcting some evil; day after
day remedying some wrong.
''There are some who see danger to
our institutions in the agitation, re-
sulting from the exposures of wrong
doing in official and business life. TIC
my mind the hope for the perpetuity o1
this government by the people was
never brighter than now. Itis simply
a firm resolve that the government
shall be representative of the liberty
Of the people, not Of the privilege o.
special interests. The great combina
tions of capital that have grown up ir
the past few years require stricter rules
of regulation as to their conduct thar
were needed in years gone by in rela
ton to individual action. In exposing
and prosecuting the wrong doing O.

opoly-creating tariff cannot be fairly
defended. International commerce can
never be a one-sided transaction
Mutuality is the primary law of trade.
Trade restrictions breed trade retalia-
tions; and SO long as we pursue a po-

never hope to dominate the CONNER

tions with the leading nations
