Dld You Hear II?

Washington Star: Economy is the
cry. The president utters it and the
democratic leaders echo it. We shall
hear 1t often during the session. It
will figure in the coming congress
ional campaign. There will be many
speeches on the subject, but. to be
effective, they must square with the
votes cast. The statesman who talks
one way and because Of local demands
votes another will play poor politics.

that the icemen of the city have COM

about that, but it is further stated
that the ice is six inches thick and

had opportunity to view the Missouri

and bitter cold. In endeayoring to
take . short cut he lost his way and
did not reach his destination until
several hours after starting and eff
forts had been made to locate the
belated train. When he arrived at
Murtio he was In . dazed condition,
one leg 50 badly frozen 1t had to be

WOULD PUNISH INNOCENT.

The sacred ties of home and little
ones. The statement given credence
at Lead that the management of the
Homestake mine property contem-
plate issuing an order to vacate prop
erty by the striking miners. AS the
company owns all the city of Lead
with the exception of the original plat
the order would effect everyone. The
miners who are now out of employ
ment by the action of the federated
body in preparing for strike and by
the company in declaring lockout
are living in houses built by them
selves on property belonging to the
corporation. II the order is issued to
vacate the ground it means for them
to move their little homes with no.
where to move them to and no money
to liquidate the expense. If they do
not move the little shanty, which has
been their home, they will have, to
vacate it to the company with loss of
the property, should the corporation
refuse to pay the price the shanty is
worth. This brings the situation di-
rectly home. Itbrings it to the very
door and divests the parent of home,
turns the wife and little ones into the
street. Even the wild animal would
rebel under such circumstances, and
it is not to be supposed the miners
will do other than stand by their
right Of possession. II the order is
issued it will be but the exemplifica-
tion Of the right and power of the
corporation, but under present con-
ditionstt will exhibit the soullessness
In . most glaring manner. Even
though the men may have erred there
Is no good reason why their error and
the responsibility Of 1t should be Wis
tied upon the innocent, the very ones
the offenders sought to assist and pro
tect through their effort to secure
more remunertive wage. For 1t is
the women and children who will
suffer the most, and their condition
should receive first consideration by
the management before the order Of
evacuation Is signed.

The Chicago Livestock World OBJ

goats sold that Missouri feeders, UNI

TAKING the postal deficit as text,
the Sioux Falls August Leader says:
1T is true that part of the postal
deficit could be wiped out y raising
the rates on magazines and newspa-
pers; but it is also true that all Of it
could be cut out by reducing the car
rying charges which are as high now
as they were thirty years ago. Uncle
Sam pays too much for carrying the
mails, but no administration has ever
had sand enough to undertake to cut
the rate" 1t is also true that higher
rates should be charged trashy publ
cations, the kind issued purely for the
money secured out of mail order adj
vertisers.

life. 1t Is worth an effort and one
that should have the cooperation of
every member of the senate. The
prices have advanced beyond all rea-
son. The investigation should be
thorough and complete, let the re-
sponsibility fall where 1T may. The
prices paid the producers are not in
keeping with the prices paid by the
consumer. Until complete justfica-
ton is reached prices will advance and
continue to advance. 1t is within the
power OF the government to check
this increase. Let everything be on a
safe and sane basis.
