Barton county, like most other
counties in Kansas, has had mum.
erous special" editions of var
iOus county papers, each of which
was of a heal nature and did a
great deal of good for the COM
munity in which it was publish
ed, but never has there been ar
edition covering the entire cOun-
ty and showing the greatness
thereof as will the Democrat s
Prosperity Edition. This paper
will contain pictures of all
public buildings, schools, church
eS, etc, also illustrations of spec
ial interest in a public way a
well as photos of several hundred
farm homes and other buildings,
the interior and exterior of stores
and bank buildings and the var
lOuS departments of Barton cOun-
tvs department stores. There
will be a concise write-up of each
illustration, and the many advan-
tages of each part of the county
will be clearly and truthfully set
forth. 1t will contain a brief his
tory of the county, and the achi-
evements Of its citizens. In fact
it will be a moving picture show
Of this county, in which every
picture will be explained, and
will show the world the greatness
Of the greatest county in the
greatest state on earth.
The first page will be the most
beautiful of souvenirs, a page of

the finest, faireSt and brightest

Mr.. Taft's Confession

The following is a communica.
ton printed in the New York Ev-
ening Post:
To the Editor of the Evening
Post; Sir: | clip the following
from a report of the president s
speech at Seattle:
I'VE earn a profit from our
foreign mails of from $6,OOO.OOC
to 100000 a year. The ap-
preparation of that amount would
be quite sufficient to put on a
satisfactory basis two or three
Oriental lines and several lines
from the east to South America.
Ut course we are familiar with tn
argument that this would be a
contribution to private compan-
les out of the treasury of the
United States, but we are thus
contributing in various ways on
similar principles in effect, both
by our protective tariff laws, by
our river and harbOr bills, and
by our reclamation service. We
are putting money into the peck
cts Of ShipOwners, but we are
giving them money with which
they can compete, for reasonable
profit only, with the merchant
of the world"
1t is no new doctrine that the

how the weapons Of the enemies
of prosperity are turned against

i've tariff is made an axiom from
which to demonstrate the viz
tue Of a subsidy.
There are many millions of un-
real consumers who cast real bal
lots and adhere to the old maxim
and renOunce the new, and who
never cease to hope for a Moses
to lead them out of Egypt. But
pray, what can one do when one
must choose between the efficien-
cy of organized tweedledum and
