of things, his condition is the same as before.
If, on the other hand his days labor produces
Tor himself fewer commodities than it did, say
thirteen years ago, there is certainly a de-
cline. Perhaps Mr.. Hill has this in mind.
For nation to be healthful, progressive ma
ton, mans labor in these days should pro-
duce for him more than it did thirteen years
ago. OF course, entering into the matter more
deeply, the demand and supply Of labor and 9th
er conditions affect and modify the rule, but
we are speaking of normal conditions and the
normal working composite man.
AS civilization advances the wants of man are
increased. What were once luxuries become
necessities, or are considered as such That is
good symptom, not sign of decay. The dan
ger TO nations, the symptom of national decay
OF luxury TO an abnormal extent, luxury that
obtains only in nations where wealth has been
greatly concentrated and centralized where the
mass of wealth is controlled by the few
The days of the Roman Empire are cited as
showing what luxury is in declining nation
We have not by far reached that point. In
Rome in her days preceding actual decline, lux
ury assumed an mprudent and immoral char
acter. Enormous sums were expended for in
significant enjoyments. The beautiful and true
enjoyment OF life made place for the monstrous
and effemnate. Nero paid three hundred tai
ents for vase. Right here the enormous sums
paid by our rich men for pictures and works of
art may suggest themselves
For the Roman magnates. several acres Of
land which sufhced for farm in the days of the
republic were not enough for a fish pond for
imperial slaves. The sums carried by travellers
on their tours were greater than the fortunes
of distinguished citizens in the days of the Ro-
man Republic People in the declining days
kept herds of sheep dyed in purple merely be-
cause they were expensive. Only live fish were
served on the tables Of the rich. Our present
lobster palaces were not what they we're then.
Characteristic of the times was the custom of
dissoving pearls in vine, not to make it palata-
Bile. but more expensive. The Emperor
Caligula from simple caprice caused mountains
TO be built up and cut away. People changed
their dress at table as often as dozen times.
Perfumes were mixed with wines that the
drinkers might emit sweet odors from every
pore Slaves reminded their master when he
should cat The more despotc a state becomes
the more is the craving for momentary enjoy
ment wont TO grow
All of this was dependant upon the accumula-
tion of capital in the hands of few, not merely
the high cost of living OF the masses. If there
FORE there is symptom of national decline
with us, it is not only the high cost of lv-
ing, but the eNtravagances of our rich classes,
monkey dinners and the lavish expenditure Of
wealth for purely personal enjoyment and the
pleasures Of the moment.

THE SMOKE NUISANCE.

EVERAL Western cities arc greatly agi-
- lated by the smoke nuisance. And they
have reason to be. Sometimes on entering a
Western city one is inclined TO think one is en-
tering the portals of the lower regions so great
is the smoke and dust and general discomfort.
Chicago is graphing with the smoke problem,
making a stirring effort to force the railroad
companies 10 adopt electric locomotives The
companies are fighting the proposed ordinance
because of the expense. Employees Of the rail-
way companies are also objecting ON the ground
that if the electric cars were TO be adopted many
hrenen and other employees would be thrown
out of work Thus one theory upsets the other.
The companies say their expenses would be in
creased while the say the expenses would
be essened because fewer workmen would be
EMPLOYED.
former mayor OF Cleveland, o.. once re-
marked that if the smoke were killed, the city
would be Killed, industries put out of business,
and many have been the arguments about the
happiness and prosperity that dwes in The
curling smoke from the tall chimneys of the in
dustrial plants In Cleveland, it is contended
that bituminous coal is the cheapest fuel that
can be used in that city. The industries would
be seriously handicapped by an anti-smoke or
dnance. Despite this, Cleveland papers state
that the smoke nuisance must be abatsd, even
If electricity has to be generally substituted II
is asserted that there are many practical devices
that would do away with the smoke nuisance,
but they have not been adopted by manufac-
turers. Ninety per cent of the heavy smoke is
said to be merely wasted fuel caused by improp-
er stolSing
They had hearing on the smoke question
before committee of Chicago's Council the
other day. and the vice-grand master of the
Flremans Union spoke. He argued that the
demand for the ant-smoke ordinance came from
women and women's clubs He declared that
smoke really bred health and that electrifcaton
Of the railways meant loss Of life, injuries and
untold expense.
The women before the committee argued or
the other hand that the dense black smoke pour
ing from locomotives was cause of tuberculo
sis and smallpox among other pleasant things
and it damages household furnishings, they
might have added.

NEW VENTILATION
SYSTEM FOR PULLMANS

The Pullman company has adopted a
new system OF ventilators for sleeping
cars which will make the raising of win
dow screens unnecessary. The new sys-
tenn was perfected by Thomas Garland,
general agent OF the hurlington's refrig-
orator service, and will be installed on
more than 1900 cars being built for ths
various railroads. The new system pro-
vides for extending a duct from the roof
OF the car down the side and opening into
the car near the level OF the lower berth
through a grill. Within the grill is \
damper enabling the passenger to shut
off the flow Of air or turn It on as ha
wishes.

Editorial
Opinion
Telegraph Merger.
- ID.....t.Ilam..

Telegraph Merger.
Springfield Republican.
The requirement by the American tele-
phone and telegraph company of large
minority interest in the Western Union
company assures future cooperation be-
tween these corporations. There has been
no business rivalry between the telephone
and telegraph, as a matter OF fact, and
tho action Of the telephone company
simply means that through the friendly
relation now established II VIII be pos
sible for tho American telephone and tele-
graph company to extend Its business
particularly over long stretches Of coun-
try In the West, where telegraph Lines are
already fully stablished-witnout making
necessary a needless and expensive dupli-
cation Of equipment The difference In cir
cults is such that it is possible to tele-
phone and telegraph over the same wires
At the same time, and so IN the develop
mont Of the telephone business this is an
important step.
In other words, President Nail has been
acquiring needed additional facilities in
tho great and inevitable advance OF the
telephone business, now better handled
than ever before This is all there is TO
this departure. The block Of stock which
has been secured is doubtless sufficient to
control the situation, but it does not fig
ure up TO a majority. II is evident that the
telephone company can control the West
ern Union company, but there win be no
disposition to do this to the disadvantage
Of the latter company. Rather is this deal
10 the advantage OF the Western Union,
which stands in great need OF such intelli-
gent management as the telephone COM
pany now has. Tor years there has bsen
lack OF business push and care in the
telegraph business. It does not appear
however. that tho American telephone and
telegraph people propose at present to
work any radical change in the control
of the Western Union. but chiefly TO Sc
cure such full use Of equipment already
established as will be FOR the advantage Of
both corporations and the public beueht
as we'll Il Is all part Of the modern
economic policy of doing away with tbs
wasteful duplication OF expensive ma.
chinery for doing business There is nc
reason IN the world why poles and wires
already planted and strung should moi
carry where desirable the double businesl
OF these two corporations and that with
out any conflict OF interest. The savir
IN future outlay to the telephone com
psny by this means must be enormous.

Mr.. Hills GLooMY view.

NJ r. JAMES j. HILL the railway chief,
- often gives his views on problems of
life. He is always interesting ani entertaining.
His position as successful man Of affairs makes
persons listen 10 his opinions, for with many
people the opinion OF man who has been sue
cessful in business is regarded with much con-
sideratlon, whether he speaks upon subjects with
which he is familiar or not familiar Chauncey
NJ. Depew used to be quoted as an authority not
only on railways and lobbying, but on art Sci
ence, religion, fishing and baseball playing.
For some time Mr.. Hill has been possessed
OF the notion that we are living too e,<travaeant-
"; that we must cut down our expenses Now
he thinks that the cost of living is too HIGH. and
he IS quoted as saying that the high cost of liv-
ing is the beginning of national decline Mr..
Hill has thus read history. No one will dis
pute his assertion that the cost of living is high
The index figures Of the trade authorities
show an average rise of so per cent in the cost
of living expenses during the past thirteen wears.
These figures are abnormay big.
1t seems TO us that the important question
and Mr. Hill does not touch on it's the dis
tribution Of wealth. Mere advance in the cost
of living mere high prices of themselves should
not Justify the gloomy outlook that Mr.. Hill
takes. If the advance in the cost of living
measured by money value is accompanied by
an advance in the incomes of the people, there
IS no distress. If days labor produces for
workman the same amount of commodities as il
did before the advance in the monetary price

shall we bring the people back to the farms? is
the burden of the talk. The country opuleut with
natures resources, neglected and undeveloped;
the city congested and crowded with man el-
bowling man out of a job. A hard problem 20

Dry farming, however was the principal top
ic discussed. We admit considerable ignorance
about it, but it is all the talk out West. "Dry
farming will give revenues that will startle us -
says professor Of the University Of Nebraska.
We had thought that high prices of farming pro-
ducts had already bloated the pocket books of
the farmers and shrunk the purses of the house
wives, but it seems that more good things are
in store for the farmers.
