NOT WASHBURN- CROSBY
Makers of Gold Medal Flour Not
Concerned in the Minneapolis
ReceiverShip.

1t should be understood that the
Washburn-Crosby Co., makers of
GOLD MEDAL FLOUR, are in no
way concerned with the recent Mime
apolis Touring mill receivership.
The slight similarity in names has led
to some confusion.
One need have no fear that the
GOLD MEDAL housewives, whose
pictures have adorned the magazines,
and newspapers, will cease to appear.
We shall see them the same as ever.
And the WashburnCrosby Co. con-
tinues to be the largest milling con-
Germ in the world.
Therefore, while the receivership in
question is most unfortunate, it does
not by any means concern all Mime
apolis -four mills. The Washburn-
Crosby Co., maker of the widely
advertised GOLD MEDAL FLOUR,
shipped 5000 cars last year more
than its nearest competitor. And its
fourishing still.

PROSPERITY TO ORDER.
How the Stand Patters Propose (

How the Stand Patters Propose to
Avoid Taking Their Medicine.
The New York Evening Post recent
" said: Prosperity has taken to itself
wings and flown away, hut is to be
ordered back for campaign purposes.
1t will be at least good enough pros
perity till after election"
The Post, continuing, shows how the
stand pat leaders are going to force
the sun of prosperity to shine again;
how they will issue orders TO the timid
bankers to loosen up with loans to
merchants, contractors and manufac-
turers; how they will put pressure on
the railroads, commanding them to
order rails and other equipment "and
make the tall chimneys smoke again."
how they will crack the whip over the
shoulders of manufacturers, adjuring
them to re-employ their men and run
their mills to capacity, whether they
have market for their goods or not.
This is all to be done because the I'M
expected happened in the way of a
severe industrial depression under a
stand pat tariff, and the benefciaries
of that tariff are to be scared into
forced resumption of the appearance
of prosperity through fear Of losing
their special privileges If the voters
should show their resentment by elect
ing real tariff reviserS.
No doubt the scheme will work-in
part. Many men will be put on the
payroll at least temporarily. and in
certain directions there will be greatly
increased industrial activity. If there
comes L collapse after election, that,
as stand patters reason, will be for
gotten before another election.
But the Evening Post pertinently
raises the question whether the voters
can be fooled this time by tricks of
that sort Observing that there are
difficulties in the way of q graceful
return to the stage by stand patters in
the role of prosperity agents, the Post
continues:
Malicious spectators will ask why
1t was ever abandoned. If Republic
an control of prosperity by means of
high tariff is so absolute, why was it
ever relaxed? A real earthly Proyi-
dence does not even temporarily lose
its grip. 1t must be as constant as
the sun. To have allowed the country
to suffer for a single year must arouse
haunting doubts in the minds of the
faithful akin to those which have trou-
bled theologians. If the Republican
tariff could not have prevented bad
times, then it is not all powerful; If it
could, but did not then it is not benev-
client. This is the way in which tariff
atheists are made"
If the voters have not lost their pow
Ell of reasoning during the season of
dull times and lean rations. it may be
predicted that the country will be full
Of tariff atheists" next fall

Trim the Trees.

Lancaster Herald: There are many
trees in Lancaster that need trimming
and have needed it for some time.
The city with all of it's well kept
lawns and beautiful residences would
be still more attractive if the trees
we're kept nicely trimmed all the time.
Platteville is enforcing an ordinance
that compels everyone to keep the
trees on his property bordering public
walks trimmed at proper height.
This ordinance is good one and
might properly be enforced in Lam
caster. The general appearance of
the city would be greatly improved.

BEEF TRUST BLAMED.
Advances In the Price of Meat Said to
Be For Profit Only,

BE or FRONT only.
The following, recently published In
the New York World and backed up
with pertinent facts, sounds q warning
to those who do not yet realize the
deadly power of trusts that control
the necessaries of life:
without even the justification that
the demand has increased or the sup
ply fallen short, the advance in the
price of meat by the powerful combi-
nation now reaching out to control the
retail trade of the country has reached
a point where hundreds of small butch
ers in New York city must be driven
into bankruptcy because they are I'M
able to sell at the exorbitant rate
forced upon them, with the added bur-
den of the eXactions of the railroads
in freight rates.
"In Washington market. the most ia
nous mart Of its kind in the country,
trade has been cut almost 80 per cent
In a year. Butchers who needed six
or seven big iceboxes last year get
along now with two or three"
Without q tariff duty on imported
cattle and meat, the operations of the
trust would not be nearly so easy.

PEOPLE GETTING WISE.
Tired of Being "Plucked" by Dishonest
Taxation.


1t was many years ago that William
Pitt said in the English house of lords:
ITO levy direct tax of per cent
is a dangerous experiment in a free
country and may incite revolt but
there is Il method by which you can
tax the last rag from the back and the
last bite from the mouth without
causing murmur against high taxes,
and that is to tax q great many ar
ticles of daily use and necessity so
indirectly that the people will pay
them and not know it. Their grum-
bling then will be of hard times, but
they will not know that the hard times
are caused by taxation"
Since the days of Pit many genera
lions Of people in supposedly free
countries have backed up the truth of
his saying. They have grumbled at
hard times, not knowing that they are
paying many times 81 per cent in
taxes on the necessities Of life. In the
United States some people have long
seen the connection between the hard
battle for existence and the dishonest
and discriminating taxes collected
through the tariff, and there are indi-
cations that the majority are beginning
to see it The promises of the stand
patters to revise the tariff are a little
louder and stronger than ever before,
and yet are they strong enough to be
remembered after election? If the
people are getting wise as to the eff
feet Of the tariff, will they also be
wise enough to intrust it's revision to
those who have a motive for remem-
bering, not q motive for forgetting. to
those who do not profit by the injus-
tice of tariff taxation?
