J.D. Rockefeller has given one million
dollars to fight the hookworm, and the
work is to be carried on by commission
of twelve scientists, educators and bust
ness men. The difference between the
benefactions of Rockefeller and Carnegie
is that the former would exterminate
the hookworm, while the latter gives aid

In an address at Dallas, Texas, B. F.
Yoakum, chairman of the board of d.
rectors of the Frisco Rock Island Rail
way, spoke Of the increasing govern
mental expenses, and the increase in the
past thirty years in the number of
government employees, as though these
increases were criminal and should
be curtailed. If the country had
stood still for thirty years, increas
ing neither in wealth nor population dur
ing that time, there would of course be
no justification for what Mr.. Yoakum
characterizes as extravaganza. But in
his own business he no doubt finds it
necessary to add to his rolling stock and
train crews to meet the requirements of
shippers, and the conditions are the same
in all lines of business. 1t requires no
argument to prove that large business
requires more capital and more employees
than small one, and statements to the
contrary are pure demagoguery.

Chairman Lloyd of the Democratic
Congressional Committee is very frank
il his confession that he does not know
what the Democratic issue will be next
year. He thinks they will wait and see
what the Republicans will do and then
simply oppose it. Well, that will be moth
ing new. That is about all the Demo-
cratic party has ever done since it had the
Republican party to contend with. The
Democratic party next year will be as
was the Democratic party last year, and
every campaign year for half a century, an
opposition party-a negative party. And
that is largely why it is minority party
and will remain so.

no reason to suppose that the In
