II you Will permit me, l would like
10 ask your correspondent, George r
Smith, to explain more fully to youl
readers what incentive would it be
TO the individual TO raise Or make
everything for use unless profit were
held out to him as an inducement?
Does he mean tina Jones raises a field
OF turnips, or Green makes shoes OF
bread, and every Tom, Dick or Harry

they want at actual cost of produc.
tion?
If this were the case, what would be-
come Of Jones and Green and their
families? This would be a case OF
dog eat dog, or dividing up with a
vengeance.
The question of What is a. man to
DO who Is out of work in financial
crisis, and is starving?" is one of the
greatest Importance at all times, and
more especially at this time, and if,
as our friend Taft says, God alone
KNOWS, 1t is true some of the things

Some Aspects of
Whitaker's Trial.


At the conclusion of his preliminary
trial in New Orleans yesterday, Ed
ward S. Whitaker, former Inspector oil
police, was held 10 the criminal court
for his recent attempt to kill Joseph
NJ. IeveQue, editor of the Morning
World. The five detectives were dis
charged upon the strength of Whit
aker's sworn testimony that he had
ordered them to accompany him, tell
ing them that it was his purpose to
arrest LeVeque. Such a statement,
as We see it, left the trial judge no
course except to discharge the five
detectives, whose conduct the night
of the murderous and cowardly as
sault left WIS not, as We recall the de-
tails, out of harmony with what the
conduct of New Orleans policemen
might have been expected to be under
such orders.
On the other hand, one might think
that, if the detectives knew that they
had been ordered to go along to as
sist in an arrest, it was their duty
either to see that Leveque was ar
rested, and also the copy reader who
triPped up a detective with a pointed
revolver and then tackled the coward
" hulk of an inspector. Or, if not
their duty to arrest Leveque and this
particular employee of the Morning
World. who made monkey" of
one Of the detectives; if their judg-
ment on the spot was that Leveque
and the copy reader who attacked"
both detective and the shooting in
spector did not have "a ride coming
to EN-, then they might be argued to
have had the duty of arresting Whit
aker, whom they had seen first strike,
and then twise shoot at, Leveque.
Entirely foreign to the Whitaker
detective aspects of the case, is the
treatment of Leveque and the Morn
ing World by the Associated Press.
The Journal knows enough of news
paper work to know that the identity
and rank of the man shot at are both
distinct news aspects of the story.
Yet, in carrying the story of the &C
quittal of the detectives the Associ-
ated Press does not mention that
Leveque is an editor, and does not. in
saving that he is "a newspaper man"
mention in any way which paper he
Is connected with.

over the fact that Claude L'Engle OF

Walker OF Wakulla county. A letter
was read from Mr. Walker in which
he stated that It would be Impossible
Tor him to attend and asking that Mr.
Mr.. LBngle be recognized as his
| proxy.
The point was raised that former
ruling OF the committee lad been
that proxies could only be held by
residents Of the counties from which
county the member was elected. This
settled it, and Mr.. LEngie remained.

Fixing the Dates.
Frank WaIpole then submitted a
resolution fixing the dates for holding
the primaries, the first to be on May
10, and the second on June Is, and
moved the adoption of the same.
Then came several attempts to
change the dates as provided in the
resolution George c. Martin OF
Brooksvi1le moved that the dates be
changed to April 81 and May 10. This
was argued, but upon a vote being
taken the amendment was lost. and
the original resolution was adopted
as offered by Mr., Walpole, as fol
lows:
BE it resolved, That the attached
call for a Democratic state primary is
hereby made, the first primary cleo
ton to be held Tuesday, the 18th day
of June, A. ID. 19eS, and the second
primary election to be held Tuesday,
the 18th day of June, A. D. 1908; be

Resolved. That a campaign COM

to be chosen at said primary election, |
and shall prescribe all necessary |
forms and blanks, rules and regula- |
tons, and do and cause to be done |
all things necessary or advisable to be
done in connection with said primary
election law"
This concluded the business of the /
meeting. and on motion the meeting
subject to call of the chair
man.
Chairman Williams announced that
he would appoint the new campaign
committee as soon as he could select
he members to serve on the same,
and will call meeting of the cam

is happiness to be found by so do
ing? 1t is not. Jesus Himself, bleed
ing on the cross, is the apotheosis
of the human fate of any man or wo-
man who lives truly for others, for
the world is apt to regard with more
consideration those whom selfish
reason make objects of envy than
those whose lives bear no poison
points for the manning of others.
The best anyone can attain in this
world, is content-not sloth or apathy
Or Indifference. but harmony with sur
roundings, so that his thoughts and
his deeds make no conflict within
himself, no conflict between himself
and others, to either his disappoint-
ment or their injury. And this state
is not to be found in any seeking for
gain, but only by so ordering ones
life that each day will mark some de-
liberate act Of intentional service to
others-and the content will be great
er if the personal knowledge is that
the effort and purpose were altruistic. ,
The Journal was guilty of the error
yesterday OF asserting in the head
lines that the state executive commit
tee of the democratic party had Or
dered the first primary for state Off
GERS and others to be held on May 10.
and the second primary on June 26.
1t should have been stated May 10
and June 16, as was stated in the ar
hcle itself. Such mistakes occur &C.
casionally in newspapers. That they
ought not to, makes our regret all the
greater in the case.

Denver Markets.

DENVER UNION STOCK YARDS,
July 29-Cattle prices declined
sharply here early last week but
later good deal of this loss was
recovered, leaving the market
but 10 to 20 cents lower at the
close than a week ago. Declines
at eastern points and the fact
that packers have a good deal of
beef on hand were responsible
for the decline here. Good North
Park steers sold at $3.50 and
A.85 with most of the better
killing steers on sale at $500 to
A.75. A feature of the week
was the arrival of the first
strictly gnass cattle of the sea-
son. A bnnch of the Carey Bros.
steers from Routt county sold at
$4.35, the Temple steers from
same territory brought S4.2O,
Shaw steers sold at $4.25 and
