THE Pink Tea" bill that failed to
pass, and 1.-THE Pink Teaists'' who
|of course, did not want it to pass.
1t seems that some dreadfully mean
men--lnen who are a combination
of Nero and Caiigula- want to
put Pink Teas and poker parties
on the same basis, even though the
roses and rosebuds Of society may
only have a penny a point at their
bridge whist parties
After Mr.. Rome has vented lot
of righteous Indignation against the
fellows who assert that pink
Teas" are as bad as poker parties,
III not little worse, he asks In the
innocence Of his heart, "Whatsis a
Pink Tea, anyhow? Perhaps Memo
knows"
WE do not know from experience,
but we tried to find out. Having
always heard that Willie Shakes
peare knew everything there was to
know, past, present and future. we
interviewed him, having a speaking
acquaintance with him; but he as
sured us that he had never heard Of
a Pink Tea or 'Teaist' As we
have a national relationship with
Walter Scott, we asked him IL he
ever sent any OF his womanfollks to
such places, and he solemnly told us
that even his best-beloved women,
Rebecca and Rowena. would not
know pink Tea from a green
enc. We interviewed a few other
fellows who were supposed in their
day to be brainy sort of folks, but
none OF them knew anything be-
yond green tea and black tea. 1t
is dreadful to live and die in ignor-
ance of the bliss of winning prizes

Don't seed oats in young orchard.
You will surely regret it il you do, for
the oats will steal the moisture from
the young trees. The one exception to
this rule is in the case of a very
damp field where there is too much
moisture.

ing a federal law and that he should
be prosecuted criminally, but that
the corporation was not guilty and
should not be prosecuted civilly. No
friend of corporations would make
such a report as that against the
head of corporation. The indica-
tions are that the era when the peo-
pie shall be given a chance and when
corporations are to receive what is
due them, and those who have as
sisted the corporation in depressing
the people, Shall receive their de-
serts, is near at hand. With Mr..
Bryan in the presidents chair and
Judson Harmon in the governors
chair another great stride will have
been taken by the people toward that
goal which has so long been desired,
yet which has always appeared so
distant that hope was sometimes all
but abandoned.

CLEANING HOUSE

Never was the truth of the old

ming Is going 10 strike" more
clearly proven than in the develop
ments of the past few days in the
political campaign. The fun began
when Mr.. Hearst made his attack
upon Foraker and Governor Haskell,
the ex-treasurer of the Democratic
national committee. President Roos-
evelt added fuel to the flames when
he seconded Mr.. Hearst's motion. The
result was that Governor Haskell
was forced to retire from the DEM
ocratic committee and Mr.. Dupont,
who was chairman or the speakers
bureau in the Republican national
committee saw the cyclone coming
and lodged into his cyclone cellar,
because OF his connection with the
powder trust, which has been gull
ing the government upon every
pound OF powder purchased for war
and practice purposes. Each one of
the national committees has been
cleared of one man who Is alleged
10 have been affiliated with the great
corporations, or trusts, and 1t is
barely possible that Others may be
found who will be compelled to fol-
low in the footsteps OF the two who
have laid down their political bur-
dens.
Senator Foraker's reply to Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft's at
tack upon him indicates that II the
house cleaning Is 10 be made COM
plete. Mr.. Taft vii be compelled to
delegate the job OF defeating Mr..
J Bryan TO someone else, but he does
not indicate TO whom that task
should fall. He points out the way

with the trust magnates, even since
he was nominated for the presidency
and how among his other acts be
strongly recommended one Of the
Standard Oil company's chief coun-
cllors and attorneys for place upon
the federal bench, some months ago.
In this connection It has also been
pointed out that during his campaign
four years ago, the president him
self accepted a campaign contribu

GOVERNORS POOR EYESlGHT.
Governor Harris has had another
Contortion on the temperance issue
which he Is to bang away at dur
ing the campaign
He chsFges that the liquor inter-
ests have raised an "enormous cor
ruption fund" which he puts at
100000 to defeat him, and repeats
the false charge OF an alliance be-
tween the Democratic party end the
'aloons.
IL Is not surprising that the gov
ernor, who couldn't see corruption
right under his nose In the state
house, is beginning to "see things
to frlghten him in campaign.
The governor does not charge that
this alleged ''enormous corruption
fund" IS 10 be turned over to the
Democratic campaign management
because he knows better, although
he seeks to convey that impression

Judge Harmon that II elected COVER

Il. G. r. in MAIN


You do not see anything in Repub-
lican papers OF lat~ about the recent
election in Maine. Neither have you
seen anything in these papers about
the result of the vote in Maine on
the initiative and referendum amend
ment 10 the state constitution.
The slump in the Republican vote
of Maine this year was so enormous
that the Repub' lean papers have not
cared to keep alive such unpleasant
memory; and they have been stud
iously silent about the adoption of
the initiative and Referendum amend.
ment in Maine by vote of more
than 2 to at the same election.
The Maine amendment Is almost
ldentically what the people OF Oh o
endeavored TO have submitted TO
them at the election this year and
which was defeated by the partisan
opposition OF the Republican side CT
the legislature at the last session.
The Maine amendment provides
that legislative enactments shall not
he effective until ninety days after
passage If an act Is challenged Dy
petition for a referendum signed by
not less than 10000 voters, It cannot
go into force until ratified by the
voters at the next general election
and the significant part Of II is, that
such ratification may be made by a
miority vote.
The overwhelming adoption of the
initiative and referendum In the rock
ribbed Republican state of Maine
has more than ordinary significance
Maine joins Oregon, n Republican
state, and Oklahoma Democratic
state in the rule OF the people
through the initiative and referend-
um. but Ohio lags behind because Of
partisan opposition on the Repubi-
can side of the legislature, whi,h
was not even willing to submit ia
the people the question of whether
we should have direct legislation in
Ohio.
Great stress was laid by Repub'i,
can leaders in the legislature upon
what thew falsely declared TO BE-
"reDresentative government" all the
while themselves being obstacles to
proper representative government
for one of the chief results OF the
initiative and referendum would be
to compel the representatives of th'
people to give them representative
government or have their acts oi
misrepresentation referred back tc
the people to settle for themselves.

RAIsn PRICE oF nREAD.


Only a few days ago the masters
bakers at Cincinnati unanimously de-
cided to RAISE THE PRICE OF
BREAD.
Such action at this particular time
shows the trend OF Republican pros
perity during Republican panic.
And Of all places In the United
States, there is double importance
in the fact that the price OF bread
should go up in Mr. Taft's home
city, only few deSs before Mr..
Taft started out to tour the country
as a candidate for president.
Representatives of labor declared
after the Chicago convention that
they Gsked for bread and were Civ
en- a stone Now Mn Taft's home
city! where Senator Foraker said
seeral weeks ago, in a speech to
the Chamber OF Commerce, that
100000 people are seeking employ
meUt, the laboler not only re-
ceived q stone from Mr.. Taft's con-
vention but must also pay more for
bread-regardless of the bumper
crops that Republican papers boast
about as signs of prosperity.
II Is a safe bet thPt in his cam
paign speeches Mr.. Taft will make
no reference 60 the raising of the
price of bread in his home city

THE HASKELL MATTER

Governor Haskell, against whom
charges were made by
William Randolph Hearst end sec
onded by President Roosevelt has
quit the Democratic national COM
mittee. He resigned he declares for
two reasons. First: in order to pre-
vent amy embarrassment to Mr..
Bryan in his campaign because OF his
connection with the committee and
his campaign, and Second; in order
that he might the better prosecute
the men who made the charges
against him. The first motive Is cer-
tainly the right spirit to be exhibit
ed. No man has right to stay in
position ii by so doing he may be
hindering the progress OF the cause
OF the people as against that OF the
trusts and monopolies. Mr.. Bryan
represents the people and their
cause and his cempaign should not
be hindered by any man for selfish
purposes. For the time, Mr.. Haskell
chooses 10 assume the role of guilty
man in order that he may further
the cause of Democracy He should
be commended for his move and not
held by the people 10 be guilty of
the charges which heWe been made
against him. He may be guilty, but II
so, sentence shopld not be passed
upon him until iie has been proven
guilty.
As to his second reason, In jus.
tice to himself, he should begin ac.
ton not only against Mr. Hearst but
against the president as well. Whet
ever the outcome of such actor
might be 1t has been clearly shown
that Mr.. Bryan will have nothing
to do with those who have beer
contaminated with the trusts.

either good or evil according to its
own Interpretation of self-interest or
sef-expression. Christian Scientists
insist only on justice to their Leader,
Mrs. Eddy, and faithful recognition of
her great and as yet dimly compre-
hended service to mankind; and that
the Christ evangel which she has re-
vealed be not compromised and be not
hidden by unjust parody from the
quickened sense of the people"
Here is faith (the tangible expression
of Mrs. Eddys teachings) that is going
into the highways and byways of hu-
man thought, healing the heartache,
the torment, and the sin of mankind.
Here is a Church of majestic propor-
tions and indomitable courage; a
science proved a million times over to
be a Science; an evangel whose minis
try is that Of the Comforter, whose at
tainable ideal is the kingdom of heaven
on earth; can this be wiped out by the
demands of delinquent material sense,
asking for itself more familiar route
to the treasures of the east? Can in
stitutional pride longer refuse to bow
its head and bend it's knee to learn the
straightaway course, long since defined
with Infinite toll and pain by the one
WayshoWer, and now again cleared OF
the mental debris of centuries? Would
modern Constantines adopt the Christ
child merely that they may teach him
to wear their garments and speak their
speech?
Progressive common sense and Chris
tian Science alike have no idols. They
alike cut loose from outgrown human
methods and systems OF thought. They
alike recognize that since matter can
not redeem matter, since material sense
cannot heal the ills of its own beget~
ting, wisdom beckons the tired seeker
to leave the old labyrinthine avenues
of search, and trust himself absolutely
