Democrats in Cabinet.

Tafts cabinet contains two demo-
s-although neither has been iden-
titled with the party organization and
neither voted at all in the last cleo
ton. They are both now residents of
Chicago-Franklin MacVeagh and ia
cob McGavock Dickinson. The latter.
however, was born in Mississippi and
still holds residence in Tennessee-to
which state he is accredited in his
cabinet capacity. He has served on
the supreme bench of Tennessee, and
was also an assistant attorney gen
eral for the United States during the
closing year of the Cleveland admin
istration and the first of McKinley's.
He is the general counsel for the IL

Will High Prices Not Removed by
Panic, be Now Done Away With?

New York Journal of Commerce:
The body polite was suffering in 1906
and 1907 from cancer which the
panic should have removed, but the
severe as it was, did not
prove entirely successful. The re-
moval of the insidious growth-the in
flation-instead of being swiftly per-
formed, was obstructed by various
misguided industrial physicians I'M
acquainted with such cases, the worst
offenders being none other than the
steel "magnates." There were at first
palliating circumstances, but these
have long since disappeared and a
chain of evils has been created by the
unhealthy course so stubbornly pur-
sued.
The leaders in some other indus
tries were misled by the action of men
whom they looked up to as the most
Irresponsible and ablest in the country,
with the consequences that there was
not that speedy return to normal con
Editions that should have followed the
collapse of over-strained credit All
along protests have been made by ma.
ture economists against this false or.
der of things, but they have been as
a voice crying in the wilderness. The
heads of various monopolistic corpor
ations. never having enjoyed the train
ling necessary to study the larger
phases of business, were naturally. as
well as wilfully, blind to the foretold
fruits of their folly-npne are so blind
as those who will not see. The cop
per kings have since then seen a grea
flight. So have the dominators of sew
eral minor industries.
And now the steel trust directors
are painfully learning that they can
not with impunity defy the eterna
laws of supply and demand Instead
of this being an occasion for sorrow
it should be recognized as an occasion
for rejoicing. not in any vindictive, |
toid-you-so spirit, but because at las

One Victory, Several Losses.

The president has had one great vic
tory during this session of congress
He killed the census bill. But he lost
almost everything else. The labor
unions will not be exempted from the
operations of the Sherman law The
railroad bill will not be amended. Cor
porations will not be licensed. The gov
eminent will not supervise stock is
sues. The appropriation for inland
waterways will be small, if any. There
will be no income tax. The postal
savings bank is in state of coma, if
not lifeless.
These are all good measures, APP
proved by the best men in congress
and by the people. They have been
killed through spite and antagonism.
1t is pity that conviction and tact
cannot always be married.

DIGNITY OF OWNERSHIP.
The Feeling Of Pride That Is Born e
Payino Taxes

MANY time" said Il policeman in
the southern part of the city, when
arresting men, especially Intoxicated
men, l have been told BY my prisoner
that he was Il taxpayer and that lie
helped pay my wages.
Il always regarded this sort of bacl,
talk as merely drunken insolence aud
never paid mitch attention to ii until
about year ago. when | bought {,
house and lot and became myself q
taxpayer. l had always rented be
fore and never gave a thought to taxes.
but as soon as / moved into my own
house l began to appreciate the feel
ings of men who resented arrest be
cause they paid taxes.
There is certainly considerable ad
dition to the dignity of the man who
helps support the government. He
feels degree of responsibility that Il
renter or roomer never understands
and my idea is that every man III tie
country ought TO become taxpayer
as soon hs he can. And the mere fact
that he does help support the govern
ment and bears his share of the cX
pense makes him a better citizen

We went out together, and he bought
three chairs at two and sixpence each

Sufferers are beginning to realize
that external applications will not rid

This really great blood purifier alb

enormous number of patients who had
despaired of relief undex the ordinary

RULE OF THE ROAD.

and got shivers anticipating collision
every time. One morning I stepped
up to policeman at Kings Cross to
get my bearings. and, as he was dis
posed to be laxative. kept him COM
pany.
Among other things asked him
whether there was any rule requiring
pedestrians to keep to the left. No, he
told me; it was only for the roadway
chat the rule held.
