The ever active Commercial Depart
ment is constantly improving. Through
the efforts Of Mr.. Butler two more
schools have been added to the CORES
pondence list Of the Actual Business
Exchange. They are the Lawrence
School OF Business Of Lawrence Uni
verslty, and popular business college
of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. This makes
three schoUls with which the business
students are now corresponding, the
other beng Hoffman, Business Col
Iege CT Milwaukee. In this actua!
business, there are located at the
different schools, banks, freight offices.
commission and wholesale houses, real
estate offices, ETC., with which the
students of the several schools trans
act business; besides the TRANSACTIONS
which occur among themselves. From
the amount Of mail that is received
and sent cut daily, it seems evident
that something's doing" in the lire
Of business. This subject, not only
gives the student some information Of
the different kinds OF business but also
gives the student the experience of
keeping a set of books of his own and
2 faint idea of what it is like to be
bo0kkeeper outside Of the school room.
The class in Commercial Law having
finished that subject, are now under
taking the subject of Economics,
study that is taught in but very few
high schools.
Mr.. Butler is now endeavoring TO
have the next civil service examina-
tion held in Waterfowl, SO as to give

demonstrate that a high school steno-
grapher is capable of passing this ex-
animation, although the student does

SHOULD BE READ IN CONGRESS-.
In speech in the United States
senate in 1888 Daniel Webster spuke
these words:
There are persons who constantly
clamor. They complain of oppression,
speculation and the pernicious infu-
ence of accumulated wealth. They
cry out loudly against all banks ard
corporations, and all means by which
small capitals become united IN order
to produce important and beneficial
results. They carry on mad hostility
against all established institutions.
They would choke the fountain of in
dustry and dry all the streams. In a
country of unbounded liberty they
clamor against oppression. In a
country of perfect equality they would
move heaven and earth against privi-

Tie oGtcry the anarchists make
against our government, that no ore
has ever invited them to live under,
reminds one of the resolution once
adopted by the early settlers Of Yer
mont to the effect that the laws of
God and Connecticut be adopted Gun
til we have time to frame better. E"
So far as We can see, however, the an
archists repudiate all laws Of God or
man, either being equally distasteful.
From their standpoint of absolute law
lessness, there is but une law and
court that would fit their case, that of
Judge Lynch. efferson County Union
True, and when they violate the
laws of both God and man, they ap-
peal to the very laws they have ig
nored for their protection. They are
moral and political parasites upon
the body polite and should be dealt
with in q summary manner. The in
slant man acknowledges that he is
an anarchist. the law should place him
where he can do no harm and if ali
alien driven out of the country, for
there is vast difference between IL
cense and liberty and the public have
the rights of safety and protection.

TROUBLE WITH VENEZUELA.

This government is again having
trouble with Castro, the president Of
the fasco republic Of Venezuela, South
America aud it may become necessary
for Uncle Sam to spank che little
greaser in order to bring him to an
appreciation Of his insjgnificance and
the strength and power Of the United
States. But somehow the writer can
not help thinking if citizens Of this
country go to Venezuela and engage
in business, they have no right to en-
broil this country in trouble &c protect
their interests. which may cost thou
sands of dollars and possibly the loss
o. many lives. Their obJect there is
10 make money which they bring here
to spend and they never become Uitiz-
ems Of that country. We find fault
with the Chinese who come here for
the very same reason and there is lit
tie or no difference in the conditions.
On the whole, probably the best thing
Uncle Sam can do IN the matter, is to
let those who go there either get out.
abiCe the consequences and work out
their own salvation the best way they
know how. While it is right for this
government TO protect its citizens in d
foreign country there, is neither right
nor jugtIce IN protecting those whose
only purpose is to amass wealth and
if they are interterred with, to cry out
tor help from home and put our gov
eminent to trouble an expense IT help
ing them to that end.

BUSINESS PICKING UP

BUSINESS TICh1LNI u L
In spite of the slump in the bust
ness of the last quarter Of 1907 the
gross sales of the United States Steel
Corporation were over $50, 900, 900
greater than in 1906. They reached
the enormous amount of $757, Ola, 767.
The net earnings were also larger than
ever before and a very large amount
of new construction was paid from
current revenue which is capitalized
IN the form of adding value to the
common stock. At the beginning the
common stock of this corporation rep
resented only good will and water.
Good will doubtless haa value upon
which corporation is entitled to earn
dividends if it can. And squeezing
water out Of stock by injecting net
earnings is legitimate.
Of course nearly all the business
done by the corporation IN 1907 was
upon orders booked long before the
financial trouble began. During the
last three months there was a great
falling off in sales and a consequent
necessary reduction of working force
Of ha RI "a
ic all the plants were being forced to
their maximum capacity, and OF
coarse, reduction of sale involved q
reduction of working force. But now
comes the hopeful part. With the
opening of the new year came an in
crease of sales. Sales in January
were twenty-five per cent. greater
than in December, in February TWEEN
ty-fiVe per cent greater than in JanG-
ary, and thus far in March the increase
has been in the same ratio. We sus-
pact that the December sales, upon
which the first percentage was calcu-
lated, were pretty small, and that,
were it not for orders received long
ago and still untitled the dischager of
workers would still be continuing.
But there is business new and old,
sufficient not to keep those now en-
ployed at work but to allow the cor
poration to take on more and more
men every week. From the reports
of re- employment which we have noted
since the beginning of the year we
should Judge that as many as 10, 600 of
the men who were laid off have already
returned to work.
The management of the corporation
expects the present rates of increase
in sales to continue.
There is no other single industry
which is SO good barometer of gen
eral business as the steel industry
Not wheel moves anywhere which
does not make a market for steel.
And the fact that orders for steel
products are rapidly increasing is evil
dence that the industries which use
steel are resuming or increasing their
operations.

from the dreadful disease, rheuma-

tried many medicines but never got
much relief from any of them until
two years ago, when l bought bottle
of Chamberlains' Pain Balm. I
found relief before | had used all of
one bottle, but kept on applying it
and soon felt like a different woman.
Through my advice many of my friends
have tried it and can tell you how
wonderfully it has worked. Mrs.
