SUBSIDY VS.. EQUALITY.
BY A. r. McCook.

(This article, which appeared origi-
nally in the Chicago Examiner and
later in Posts Public, of Chicago, is
so very strong and true that it is re-
produced in the Jeffersonian. The
author, formerly principal of the
Elma To-, schools, is now super
intendent at Shell Rock. He was the
Democratic nominee for State superin-
tendent of Iowa in 1908, and the fol-
lowing year was delegate to the
Democratic National Convention and
was secretary of the delegation. At
present he is secretary of the Iowa
Democratic Club, which is an organ
ization Of the radical Democrats of
that State.)
Like the tainted money" contro-
versy, Mr.. Carnegio's gift Of $lO,-
100000 in steel trust bonds as fund
for college professors who have out
lived their days of usefulness, is ex-
citing much adverse criticism and al
so some that is favorable.
1t is unnecessary for the present to
question Mr.. Carnegie motives, but
what Of the influence and Ultimate
consequence of these annuities?
Next to Rockefeller, Mr.. Carnegie
is the greatest BENEFICIARY of the trust
system. There is already too much
trust and corporation domination in
the educational work of our colleges
and universities, and the influence of
prospective annuities will hardly In
crease the professors opposition to
these industrial monsters. Rather
may we not expect them 20 invent
new excuses and apologies for mo-
nopoly's greed and avarice.
The argument is made that teach
ers are underpaid, and that conse-
quently the pension is deserved.
Teachers are underpaid, but the rem
edy should be an increase Of salary
rather than a pension-at least until
the aged common laborer is provided
for in some way; and then the govS

BAILEY AND STANDARD OIL
STILL A LIVE ISSUE IN
TEXAS

sition to him appears to have greatly
Increased. Vigorous discussion has
brought home to the people Of Texas
the fact that Bailey's connection with
Standard Oil has destroyed his USE
fulness as public servant and has
placed for the first time a southern
man in the ranks of the trust owned
senators.
Organizations have been formed
throughout the state for the purpose
Of electing a majority Of "anti-
Bailey" men to the next legislature
to put into effect resolution which
will be introduced calling for the res
ignation Of Bailey from the United
States senate. Bailey still has con-
siderable following. He controls the
state democratic executive commit
tee and can set III motion the organ
lied party machinery. Both tho pres
ent governor and Senator Culberson
are mysteriously silent on the bailey
subject. If they are against him
they seem to be afraid to say 50; and
this indicates that Bailey's political
strength has not been entirely broken.
On the other hand, the "anti-
Bailey" faction is trying to enlight-
en- the voters and bring them to an
understanding Of the perfdy Of
Bailey's conduct-to make them un-
derstand that "a CRATER is a traitor
to his country in a time of peace. -
Hon. VIM. A. Cooke, representative
from Bexar county, who made the
charges that led to the legislative in
vestigation of Bailey, is writing g
book entitled: "Senator Bailey's
Political Life and Character" which
will contain, it is said, sonc interest
ing facts regarding Bailey's eaiiler
career and his later affiliations with
Standard Oil.
What may be considered the most
audacious of the many bold acts of
this transcendent demagogue was per-
petrated recently at banquet in
Dallas, Texas, given in honor Of Gov
ernor Campbell. After a good deal
Of disagreement as to whether or not
Bailey be invited to speak, he was
invited but was given the harmless
subject: "The Paramount Issue Of
1896" To the astOnishment Of ev-
cry one, Bailey prefaced his speech
with the charge that the attorney gen.
eral of Texas was derelict i'll his duty
in allowing branch Of Standard Oil
to continue to operate in Texas. He
asserted that the attorney general
had been moved to prosecute the Wa
ters-Pierce OIL Go. branch of the
Standard and obtain a judgment Of
custer against same solely for the
purpose Of discrediting him (Bailey).
The speaker then offered to furnish
the attorney general the necessary ev-
idence on which to base a suit IL the
attorney general would promise to
proceed at once TO do so.
The facts in the case are: The

Frederick Seymour
to Hang

Washington, April 26.-In an
opinion by Chief Justice Fuller
the supreme court dismissed the
criminal case of Frederick Sey.
mour, alias Lord harrington, un-
der sentence of death at St.Louis
on a charge of numbering James
P. McCann in the outskirts of
that city in June, 1908. In effect
it affirms the decision of the SUI
preme court of Missouri and thus
sustains the verdict of guilty
rendered by the trial court.
The case has peen before the
public for several years and has
attracted much attention, largely
because OF Barrington's pretense
of being an English lord, under
which, shortly before the tragedy
with which his name is connect.
ed, he married a young lady of
good family residing at Kansas
City. Darlington made vigor-
GUS fight in the st. Louis courts,
contending that his conviction
was due to prejudice and that the
charge was not sustained by the
proof. When the Missouri su.
preme court decided against him
he brought the case to the Feler-
al supreme court on a writ of
error, contending that his trial
had not been fair.

To Parents

We mean this for you, if your
boy is in the habit of playing
around the depot over cars, un-
der cars and are general nuisan-
ces. Now mothers, some day
when your boy is brought home
with Leg broken, or crushed, or
perhaps killed, you don't need to
commence laying the blame on
the Rock Island or the employees.
The blame rests on you and you
alone for allowing you boy to
play there; and, if he does it un.
known to you, he is the one that
is to blame and he has to suffer
for it. Take this timely warning
and see that your boy plays in a
less dangerous place. Only this
morning we saw boy jump on a
passenger and as it commenced
to move he jumped off and fell
as he jumped. Some day he
won't fall in the right direction
and there will be either dead
boy or one more cripple in the
world instead of an able bodied
man.

FINE.

A Southern lawyer tells of a
judge IN Arkansas who had several
"tiffs" with a lawyer retained by
a woman who had Instituted a
breach Of promise suit in the court
presided over by the Judge in
question.
After each exchange of repartee
between his honor the impudent
counsel, the Judge would say:
"Clerk, just enter another fine
of $40 against Mr.. Mitchell for
contempt of court"
When this sort of thing had
proceeded further than counsel
wished, he addressed his honor in
this wise:
''If your honor please, l am
good citizen, and as such, intend
to obey the orders of the honor
able court in this, as in all other
instances. Now, your honor, it so
happens that I have not about me

about his lips, his honor looked
