CLIMATE Is IDEAL
GREAT WEALTH ACQUIRED IN
GROWING GRAIN.

Writing from Saskatoon, Saskatche-
wan, Canada, W. II. Ellwanger, who
was formerly a resident OF Green
Mountain. Iowa. says: The climate
In summer Is ideal for growing grain.
Long, clear days OF sunshine, no bad
storms. We never need to guard
against cyclones; | never saw better
climate in my life. We made more
money during the season of 1906 than
any previous i've years in central
lowa-one OF the best districts IN the
state" But Mr.. Ellwanger was resi-.
dent Of the town, and II might be more
interesting TO read what 4 farmer has
TO say about Western Canada. From
hundreds of letters all filled with
words Of praise. rcCounting success in
Western Canada there has been one
selected. It is as follows:

THE BRUTAL MEAT TRUST.

No trust, not even the STANDARD Oil
company nor the coal combine, is SO
brutally shameless, and so devilishly
cold blooded in its extortions as the
beef trust
Whenever it takes the notion this
constituencies octupus plumbers the
American people of millions of dollars,
and in it's insolent arrogance assumes
that its contributions to the Repub-
lican campaign gives it an implied
license to plumber the people when
ever it sees fit.
The monster covers its tracks so
carefully under the advice of astute
lawyers who receive pricely fortunes
for protecting the moral criminal
that the people robbed are, to all in
tents and purposes, left no alterna-
tive but to grin and bear it" so long
as they keep on voting to continue
trust protectors and peoples betrayers
in office.
There is no question about it. The
people in their unsophisticated honesty
think the Republican party Of years
ago is the Republican party Of today
But it Is not. There is nothing left
but the name, and the gang Of cor
| ruptionists who debauch the Repub-
| lican machine, and who have nothing
in common with the great men who
once constituted the Republican
| leaders.
AS always results from power and
office being too long continued the

SAMUEL GoMPERs.

There Is none Of the cunning hypo-
crisy of the common politician in the
makeup Of Samuel Gompers. Had it
not been for the treachery and abso-
Lutte Indifference manifested by the
Republican party during the past four
years towards the just demands Of
labor, President Gompers would no
doubt have preferred to maintain his
usual silence in the pending campaign.
It is a question Of principle with
President Gompers, however. and not
one Of selfish politics. He could not
keep quiet in this campaign II he
wanted to. His conscience would not
let him.
II he had not been thoroughly con-
WINGED that Van Cleave and the Ma

A PRACTICAL INQUIRY

How does it happen that the Stand
ard Oh Trust, President Roocevelt, the
big insurance companies and Mr.. Taft
agree that corporations should be
regulated by the Federal rather than
by State authority? We see the big
corporations running to the Federal
courts when they wish to evade state
laws. They prefer regulation by con-
gress to regulation by states. Int it
qneer that the corporations and Pres
ident Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft stand
together for an expansion of the fed
eral jurisdiction that is not justified
by the constitutions? But when it
comes to a matter Of regulating child
labor, then the great Republican
statesmen insist that the constitution
stands in the way-Shasta Democratic

MISTAKEN REMEDIES,

In considering the evils, unques-
tionably many and serious, of our
present economic system there is apt
to be a lack of discrimination between
the evils that inhere in that system
and those which, while existing un-
der it, are not necessarily the pro-
duct of it.
Our good friend Mr.. Phillips, in an
other column attributes to capitalism
all the evils of civilization from pov-
erty to prostitution.
He ignores the Individual character
! istics that put the satisfaction OF
present desires before future welfare,
and which are in many cases respon-
! sible~ alike for the pauper and the
prostitute.
On the other hand the economic
"stand-patter" refuses to acknowledge
that part Of the poverty and degrada-
ton Is due to an unfair division of
the product Of the combination of
labor and capital.
Yet this unfairness is not an in
herent factor of our capitalistic sys-
tenn ANY more than are unbridled ap-
petitites. Socialism will eradicate
neither selfishness nor self-indulgence
from human nature.
In fact, by prescribing remedy
which does not reach the root of the
disease 1t lessons the likelihood OF
remedying the real wrongs.
| No permanent cure for economic
evils can come unless there is a gen
eral awakening to a higher type Of
civic righteousness and of individual
integrity.

responsible for the economic condi-
lions under which we live. So Ions

FOR Sheriff..

Every wage Garner in this county
should support Chas. Jesmore for
sheriff. On a question of such vital in
terest to all lovers Of fair play mere
partisanship should cut no figure
whatever. Organized labor asks no
favors. 1t only seeks fair play 49, a
square deal to rich and poor-corpor-
alton and employee. There is every
reason to believe that Mr. Jesmore
could administer the affairs Of the
sheriff's office in a manner that would
be just to all concerned. Let the
members of organized labor remember
these and other things and govern
themselves accordingly. "A word to
the wise Is sufficient"
