THE COST OF
LIVING.

A writer in the Portland Oregonian
thinks it easy to explain why thc cost
OF living is so high. He says it is due
| to tne fact that staple articles are
scarce: that men. women. boys and
girls are averse to the labor necessary
for the production OF farm products.
There may be something in this ar
gument. but IT Is not complete state
ment Of the case While the drift is
toward the cities, there ia also coun.
ter current toward the rural districts
and II Is getting stronger year by year
Tnc fact Is the profits Of the toIler
are stolen from him The age of com
binations and trusts has borne heavily
on the tiller OF the soil Let him raise
tremendous crops, and the chances arc
that the jobber will make more money,
10 to l. than will the husbandman.
The question of supply and demand,
and consequently of profit and loss to
the producer, Is subject to manipua-
ton. with the result that the farmer
often sells his crop at low figure.
rather than risk the possibility OF los
ing It altogether.
1t is safe guess that If this cond-
tion could be changed. and the pro-
ducts of the farm placed In the pockets
of the agriculturist, the farm would
become more and more attractive.
But no man OF sense wishes to work
Ike a slave on a ten.acre or twenty
acre tract, when with less labor he
can live in comparative luxury in the
city.
Rapid transportation is doing a great
deal for the country, and it will do a
great deal moro wnen some wise man
devises an actual square deal' for
the truck gardener or farmer when he
comes to town to sell his products.

The railroads, which carry freight

making millionaires many times mil.
lionaires by paying big dividends in

lures for road improvements In an
ticipation of an expanding business.
There Is no surprise occasioned by
the disclosure that Utah merchants
pay an enormous tax, above and
beyond that which is paid by Coast
people, to the railroads. Some one
must be unfairly assessed to provide
for ten per cent dividends on an over
capitalized system OF railroads. and
this some one is the consumer in the
intermountain country, who pays
freight rates equal to that charged
for freight carried from Chicago to
San Francisco and on top OF that
about thirty-threc per cent moro.
No one for moment will entertain
the thought that the railroads haul

In wages and the cost of living be-
tween the home town and outside
places-particulsrly eastern cities
are such as 10. necessitatc a greater
cost In the making Of the goods and
make them a little higher in price.
In our estimation there should be
a concerted movement on the part
of the business men and the people
toward encouraging the support OF
home factories. An effort should be
cXcrted to stop the mail order busi-
ness and keep the money spent in
that way at nome. The retail dealer
carrying line of goods made at home
should bend bis energy to place upon
his shelves or IN his market the homo
made articles. The slogan should be
"patronize home industry" This
would mean a greater Ogden and
greater Utah. Think the matter over.

old subject, How 10 Care for the

the rather original position that drink

and docs not imply degencracy He
likcns TIE man with an appetite for
liouor TO The fellow who delights in
bridge whist. and declares that the
mania or craving in the one instance

He holds to the theory that there

cells must be catered to, II the man

forcing those who sell liquor to care
for the drunkard wnen hopelessly in
toXicated and TO provide in a measure
for the families of the victims OF

HOME MANUFACTURES SHOULD

Complaints ate being made by some
of the manufacturing institutions of

far as TO say that they arc treated
better by outside dealers than by the
homo concerns and that II would be
much more profitable for thom 10
have their factories at some other
point
This is matter that should re
ceive the earnest consideration Of the
business men of Ogden. Every pos
siblc consideration should be given TO
the home factories and where 1t Is
within the reach of the retail men.
1t is very certain that they should
patronize home industry. Even If the
homemade article comes little high
er in price than the foreign made
commodity. II will pay to handle the
home goods in preference to tho
other The circulation OF the money

couragement for the enlargement oil

But there is no reason why the
homemade article should be much

CAUSE OF SILVER YET
CONSIDERED.

Going back TO the silver question,
which so greatly occupied the atten.
tion Of the people OF the United States
a few years ago, the Rocky Mountain
News of Denver makes the following
observations:
Again the world is ringing with the
cause Of silver Never before have
the prospects been so bright OF inter
esting the entire world in the necessity
of silver money. Never before have
the great financial interests under
stood so clearly the meaning of gold
standard
Now that the Asiatics have found
1t impossible 10 buy our exports on a
gold basis, the pocketbook of the ma
ton is touched, and men like ]. ], Hill
are willing TO heed tne silver plea. On
the other hand, the greatest financial,
combination in the country disregard
ine the menace OF the times, has de-
termined to eliminate the silver dollar
and the greenbacks from the currency
They have not yet learned the lesson
which seems to be lmpressing its
meaning upon Hill. For years he has
been trying TO build up trade with the
Orient, and now he finds himself COZ
fronted by absolute failure.
In his alarm he does not know
which way TO turn Tied hand and
foot TO Wall street. he is impelled to
side with the interests that seek TO
enlarge their dominion over the ma.
tion's money He depends on Wall
street TO finance his immense railway
operations. and. II necessary, he can
entirely dispense With the Oriental
trade. His peculiar position. now
ever, has enabled him TO see both sides
of the question, and in spite OF his
affiliations with the money power. he
has raised his strong voice in behalf
OF silver, Coming from such man,
even fainthcarted plea for the white
metal has ten fold more significance
than the plea of the consistent silver
advocate.
Hill has just given qualified in.
dorSement to league formed in Cana.
da to urge the reopcning of the India
mints and to restore silver prices by
means OF compact between the Bril-.
ish empire and the United States.
The silver problem Is full of dif.

about five miles from the city. and it
is expected by the managers of the

be finished as far as Idlewld before
the end of the present summer season.
When the road is built to this point
the greater engineering and construc-
ton obstacles Will have been sur
mounted and the building OF the road
from that point 10 Huntsville will be
comparatively easy It is possible that

When this road is completed TO
