piled to swamp lands. And the result
would be the same The land redeemed
would at once make homes for settlers
and begin at once to add TO the bread
producing area of the country. The
money would be but a loan, to be speed
lily returned, and when returned, the
wealth of the country would be greatly
increased The work should be begun
at once, and the money to pay Tor the
work should come from tax on abnor-
NAL incomes. The present mighty in
crease Of some fortunes is menace 10
the peace aud integrity of the Republic.
For instance, Mr.. Carnegie gives away
many millions of dollars annually. But
his public charities have behind them
all view of enhancing the giver's name
and fame as a philanthropisS. If, say,
one third of what he has given away
had been taken from him by legiti-
mate tax and the money used to reclaim
swamp lands, by this time ten thousand
families would have homes, and would
be making enough more than living
| from them to educate their children and
give them little start in life. At the
same time they would be adding mater
tally to the food supply of the country,
and think for a moment of the differ
ence between ten thousand families,
living in comfort and with generous
hopes in their hearts, and ten thousand
/ families who have no homes except
rented huts and tenement apartments,
and not knowing where they are going
to get food and clothing for the winter.
The way to kill disontent and to drive
away dark thoughts is to give men work
| for their strong arms aud comfortable
homes for their children. And to per-
NIT individual or combined capital free
rein to pile up abnormal incomes with
out accounting or responsibility, is to
take the first step toward the degrada-
of nation.-Goodwin's Weekly.

Should Be An Income Tax.

Congress will meet in few days.
There will be the usual cry of retrench-
ment and economy; we suspect that it
will be shown that the revenues have
dwindled quite 500, 100000 because Of
the onslaughts of prohibition and the
and the consequent falling off of the
tax on liquors, but, nevertheless, we
hope an income tax law will be passed,
and with the proceeds extensive public
works will be inaugurated. The best
way to reconcile labor and capital diff
ferences is to take by law a portion of
the revenues derived from the use of
capital, and with it give labor broader
field. There is plenty of work that
should be done. The best way to give
idle men in every state employment
would be to commence on great scale
the reclamation Of swamp lands. Every
Eastern state has more or less swamp
lands. A scheme like the present rec
lamation law would be effective. if APP

PROSPECTIVE RELOCATION
OF SPEAKER CANNON.

- @~N~&Aa@A~ &~f&lNAN~9ANs
The influence of the presidential Of
fee upon the election of the speaker of
the 6lst congress, used in behalf Of
national figure of Mr.. Burton's size aud
character, may be the one thing need
full to effect change and reformation
in that great office. Unless accom-
plished now two years hence the oppor-
tunity to bring abont this reform which
in many respects transcends all others,
may fall to the people, and under cir
cumstances which will impel them to
seize on it. This will depend largely on
the manner In which the prospective
tariff bill shall be passed. There can
be no doubt that the average republi-
can member of congress desirera larger
measure of tariff reform than the Can
non oligarchy is willing TO grant, and
the view of the average member will
prevail, unless Cannon uses all the per-
suasive and coercive powers of his place
to prevent it. II be should, the issue
of reforming the house, so as to make it
a representative body, will become dy-
manic. The immediate and acute pro-
vocation will be given and at time
when partisanship will not be deferred
by the fear of jeopardizing the interests
of presidential candidate.
The remark has been made before,
but to say that the reform OF the house
of representatives is condition prece-
dent to any progress worthy of the name
is fact of such moment as to make it
worthy of reiteration. Tie fact that
the power of the speakership happens
to be exercised at the moment by man
who has an antipathy for all that is
modern in thought and sentiment, a
man who haunts his materialism by
sneering at idealism, may make the need
of reform poignant, but it does not con-
stitute the need of reform itself Exer-
cised by the most amiable. the most en-
lightened and the most patriotic man in
the country, the speakership, under
present rules and practices, would be at
least potential of evil, and that would
be sufficient reason for reform.
The plea that the concentration of
this vast power in the speaker is neces-
sary for the dispatch of the business of
the house is mere pretext. The
speaker ought to be nothing more than
moderator, just as the vice president.
the presiding officer of the senate, is.
The power of forming committees and
of directing the business of the house
ought to be lodged in small body of
men composed of representatives of the
majority and minority parties. They
would, of course, be elected by the
members of each party in caucus, and
perhaps only for one session. In this
way the members could make their in
fiuence felt The house then would be
in fact representative body instead OF
a drspotic oligarchY. Public opinion
would have means of accomplishing
something and until public opinion
finds way to exert influence on the
house we shall have only such progress.

tent of putting its own members

was adopted unanimously.

can labor movements in the effort
to bring about the repeal of the

can be counted on to defend their
cause in the Upper House of Con-
gress when occasion arises. His

tor Aldrich, for amendment to the
national banking laws, which he
ably opposed, proved the ability
OF the new Senator, and brought
him into the limelight of Senator

BY COURT
Grape Nuts, the Michigan Impos-
sition is Proven a Fraud and
Found Guilty and Fined.
This is the Mercenary Pirate Who
Has the Gall to Make War on
Honest Labor of the Country
and an Open-Shop Advocate.

Post OF "Grape Nuts' fame. has
been exposed for selling goods un-
der false pretenses. The following
from the Atlanta Morning Tribune
of Altoona, Pennsylvania, tears
the mask from the face OF the
Michigan lmposter, and shows him
up as an unscrupulous parasite
among the constituencies brood of
profit sharks:
s'The first of the three cases
brought by Pure Food Agent II,
L. Bonzhotf against wholesale
merchants on the charge of selling
cereal foods that do not comply
with the pure food laws was heard
by Alderman John J. Irwin on
Saturday morning. 1t was that
against Curry, Canaan & Co. on the
charge of selling Grape Nuts.
Com missioner James Foust, of the
pure food department., was present
at the hearing, as were a number
of others interested in the outcome
the case. J. d. Hicks, ESQ,
represented the prosecution, while
the interests of the defendant were
looked after by Attorney Il. C.
Hare, assisted by the attorney
from Battle Creek. Michigan, the
representative counsel for the
manufactured of the cereal. The
case was brought to prove that
Grape Nuts was misbranded and
does not possess the real food value
that is represented.
CDR. William Frear, head of
the chemistry department at State
College, was the chief witness in
the case. He testified to making
chemical analysis of the box of
| Grape Nuts sent him, to the re-
suit of the examination, and that
! the food failed to come up to the
statement made in branding the
! goods. He claimed that Grape
Nuts did not contain the food
valtes as represented ON the pack
age. DR.. Horace r. Smith OF this
city, was called as a witness in the
case, and testified that Grape Nuts
was not a predigested food, that it
could not be such unless acted
upon by the action of slava and
gastric juices. Both witnesses
were cross examined to great ex-
tent on their testimony
AT the cOncluSlOd Of the case
