planning of tight money is a good
time to consider how this and other
drains on u resources can be put q

the course of years tend greatly to
enrich Europe while impoverishing
this country. And there are two other

vast fortunes from this continent to
Europe in that way. American money

return for it is in the form of scandal,
Another way in which American
money is being rapidly transferred to
Europe without any real return for 1t
is found in the commencement OF
emigration. For while a heavy stream
of immigrants with empty purses is
pouring in upon us, there is a consld'
cradle stream flowing back to Europe,
carrying the savings of years OF sue

things cannot easily be stopped. But
well-graduated income and inheritance

Heiresses would have less to pay for
worthless fortune-hunting husbands,

DEMAND IS FOR REFORM.
Honest Dealings, OF Political Revolu'
ton Certain.

1t is in the courts that reforms and
revolution usually start. The great
English revolution of 1888 started
with the ship-money case. in which
John Hampden resisted the unlawful
tax imposed on carts and carriages by
Charles the First. The American
revolution of 1866 started with the
prosecution of certain men in Boston
for resisting with arms in their hands
certain edicts of George the Third.
The French revolution really started
rs a practical movement with the re-
'usal Of the parliament of Paris, the
highest law court In France, to regis
Ter a tax which had been decreed by
he French king. And finally our Own
great civil war was produced mainly
by the bred Scott decision rendered
by the supreme court of the United
States. 1t is judicial resistance to
lsurpation, rather than legislative
programmes, that produces effec.
i've popular resistance. Where the
judiciary is independent, as 1t Is in the
states of the union at this time, the
people follow the judges. But Wnere
the judges are partisans or known
tools of powerful interests, they re-
bel. That is why n great legal con-
troversy arouses the public more thar
any or all the debates in legislatures
and all the harangues of lecturers and
~spell-binders. Hence the Importance
of the North Carolina controversy
over the rate law of that state. The
people despise the Federal judges ap-
pointed by Roosevelt at the behest of
corporations, and respect the judges
elected by themselves. They will not
yield to usurped authority so long as
they have leaders whom they can safe
ly trust. The time has, therefore,
come when we are sure to have either
reform or a political revolution. Let
the administration take warning.

FAMILY FOOD.
Crisp, Toothsome and Requires No

A little boy down in N. c. asked his
mother to write an account OF how
Grape-Nuts food had helped their fam
lily.
She says Grape-Nuts was first
brought to her attention on a visit to
Charlotte, where she visited the Mayor
of that city who was using the food by
the advice of his physician. She
says:
''They derive so much good from 1t
that they never pass a day without
using it. While l was there I used the
Food regularly. l gained about Is
pounds and felt so we'll that when / re-
turned home 1 began using Grape-Nuts
in our family regularly.
my little Is months old baby short
II after being weaned was very Ill
with dyspepsia and teething. She was
sick line weeks and We tried every
thing. She became so emaciated that
it was painful to handle her and we
thought we were going to lose her.
One day a happy thought urged me to
try Grape-Nuts soaked in a little warm
milk.
well, 1t worked like a charm and
she began taking it regularly and i'm
provement set in at once. She is now
getting well and round and fat as fast
as possible on Grape-Nuts.
Sometime ago several of the family
were stricken with LaGrippe at the
same time, and during the worst stages
we could not relish anything in the
shape of food but Grape-Nuts and
oranges, everything else n~auseated us.

CONGRESSMAN PLANNING
TRIP TO THE H

V1T ASHINGTON.-A subcommittee
W of the committee. on %appropria-
tons of the next congress will go to
the isthmus in November to investl-
gate Secretary Taft's canal estimates
for 1909, if present plans are carried
out.
The proposed visit is the outcome
of a suggestion from Representative
James A. Tawney of Minnesota, chair
man, of the appropriations committee
in the last congress-, who was at the
isthmus following the adjournment
last March. He believes it will be to
the best interests of the service, as
well as to those directly and indirect
~ in charge of the administration of
the forces at work there. if the mem
bers of the appropriations committee
having in charge the preparation OF
the sundry civil bill go to the isthmus
with the estimates for the next fiscal
year and consider them carefully with
the officials having supervision OF eX-
penditures for all kinds of work being
done.
The suggestion has met with a
hearty response from those identified
with the commissions work, who be-
lieve that a great deal of good will
result from a heart to heart talk be-
tween the congressman who prepare
the appropriation and the officials
who spend it, and that it will clear
away in advance any miSapprehen-
sions or MISUNDERSTANDING that may
exist as to the business and prOpriety
OF nIioting the money estimated to be
necessary for the years work. Of
particular Importance is the proposed
visit regarded at the present time,
when the question is now before the
president whether the commission
can lawfully expend during the pres
ent fiscal year any more money than
was specifically appropriated, Col.
Goetbals having reported to the au-
thorftieS in Washington that the work
has progressed so rapidly that it will
be in the interest of true economy to
exceed that amount to the extent of
$4,000, 900, and by reason of which
he thinks a years time will be v
in the completion of the great water
way.
Officials here think congress may.
as a result of the observations of the
members of the appropriations COM
mittee who go to the isthmus, see fit
to provide legislation under which
work NAV proceed, REGARDLESS of the
appropriations, if this authority does
not already exist. The committee
will return to Washington in time for
the opening of congress in December.

BIG GROWTH IS SHOWN
In THE DAIRY INDUSTRY

EVER since that day, nearly three
IL centuries ago, when a spotted calf
went for a walk through the fields of
a Massachusetts Bay colony, and so
laid out the first street in New Eng
land, old Brindle and her family have
been of much Importance in the To-
nestle and commercial life of Amer.
lea. This Is the cows only recorded
use as street-makers, but as producers
of the great milk, butter and cheese
supply of the nation they have a
series of long and successful years
back of them.
The dairy industry of the Unitea
States is a cOngenial study for those
who like statistics. The growth has
been tremendous. There are more
than 21.000, 900 cows MIXED in the
United States every day, each gives
$500 pounds of milk q year, making
the annual output of this country
about 10000, 900, 900 pounds of milk.
It is disposed of in various ways. A
little over half of it is required for
the making of butter, 1000, 000, 600
pounds Of 1t goes into condensed
milk. 5000, 900, 900 into cheese, and tbs
rest is sold as cream, fed to the
calves. or divided among the people of
the country, each of whom should re
ceive seven-tenths of a pound of milk
a day-a good-sized tumbler full.
If the cows were all told off and as.
signed to specific duty in this dairy
products business, 6,400, 900 of them
would be required to furnish the milk,
condensed milk and cream; 10, 900, 900
would confine their attention solely
to furnish 1919 pounds a year; S4O,-
600 would be assigned to the cheese
industry, and the remaining number
would have the raising of all the
calves.
AS each individual in the United
States is supposed to eat 20 pounds
of butter each year, the Brindle fam
lily cannot quite supply it, so we still
import something like $4,000 pounds
to make up the deficiency. One-third
or the nation S output or butter comes
from the farms where $500, 900 farm
ers and their families, still churn it,
pack it in firkins or tubs and deliver
it to the nearest shipping point. Over
5000 'actories make the rest of the
1,500. 600, 900 pounds that we use an
nually.
Chicago New York P~hi1adelnhia
Boston and ST. Louis are the great
butter distributing centers of The
country. Shipped by express, or
freight, by boat or rail, the butter
reaches these points at all seasons
of the ear and is Immediately put in
cold storage to await the demand, a
continual temperature of from 20 de-
grees Fahrenheit to below zero being
maintained.

A Horses Good Fortune.

A s%piritualist came to our house
some time ago and claimed to be able
to locate our lost friends if We de-
sired. We had an old horse which
we had sold years ago and my mother

err began:
I'VE had a very good friend who al
ways did all our work. He passed
from us several years ago and the
last we heard of him was that he
was in Los Angeles. l would like
to know if he Isl still living"
The spiritualist made certain mo-
lions and knocked on the table and
then said:

L ested deeply in the crusade against
gambling in the District of Columbia.
He is more than cooperating with the
local authorities. The campaign is
made under his direction. He has
thoroughly impressed upon the dis
trict commissioners his determination,
announced in one OF his speeches, to
make Washington a clean city. AS
the commissioners are his appOintees,
n can be removed at his pleasure,
it is not surprising that the incum-
bentS show zeal in the work cut out
for them.
Gently secret service officers were con
%spicuous. The explanation of the
presence of federal officers is that the
president is determined hat the local
laws shall be enforced and that gam
bling shall be suppressed. The metro
politan police and detective forces
are sufficiently strong, numerically, to
do the work, but to see that it was
performed thoroughly secret service
men were detailed. Whether they
have been assigned to keep tab on
local police is not known. 1t is known,
however, that much of the evidence
upon which the raids were made was
gathered by the federal detectives.
No cry will be raised by the district
commissioners of federal interference.

in the courts will be directed by a

Reduced Railroad Rates.

The question of railroad rates,
either fixed by the states on transpor-
tation within the state, or fixed by the
United States on interstate business,
must eventually come before the
United States supreme court on the
question of constitutiOnality. The
pressing issue is whether the rate
reductions shall go into effect at once,
or by injunction issued by the lower
federal courts be postponed until each
case is reached and is decided by the
highest court. This matter of the
railroads being able to take advan-
tage of all the laws delays was the
contention of the Democrats when the
railroad rate bill was being discussed
in the senate, and the Culberson
amendment, which the Republicans
defeated was intended to cure that de-
feet in the law. Regarding the same
delay under state legislation the
question is one of state rights, and
whether the reduced rates a be
held up by the injunction of an in
.erior federal court issued by a judge
in evident sympathy with the rail
roads. when the natural order of pro
cedure would be that the case should
go to the state supreme court and
thence to the United States supreme
court. In the North Carolina cases
the railroads were forced by Gov.
Glenn t o acknowledge the supremacy
of state courts and the reduced rate
has already gone into effect.

ARMY COURTS MARTIAL
FEWER THAN LAST YEAR

THERE waS a decrease of 683 trials
i of officers and men of the army by
courts-martial for the fiscal year end
ing June 80 last, as compared with the
previous year, according to the report
of Maj. Porter, the acting judge advo-
cate of the army.
Thirty-four officers were tried by
court martial and nine were acquitted.
Last year four officers we're dismissed
from the service as compared with Ia
during the previous year. The mum.
Der of enlisted men tried was 1879
and sos were acquitted. The total
number of officers and men tried was
1913.
Among the enlisted men 1,101 were
tried for desertion, 1872 on the charge
of absence without leave, 223 for
drunkenness, 258 for larceny, 241 for
di~sobedience to non-commissioned Of
ficers, and I'll for disobeying superior
officers.
The report dwellG upon the evil re.
suits following the passage of the anti
canteen act, which, it is said, has
undoubtedly caused the location nea,
