Kentucky Raises Much Corn.

Kentucky this year planted one Of the

From the Philadelphia Press.
Captains. vessel owners. and rivermen
in general. who have placed faith in the
story that a vessel was sunk in the Della
ware during the Revolutionary war in
the battle between the patriots and the
forces Of Gen. Howe at Fort Miflin. ex-
press regret that Secretary NageI, OF the
Department OF Commerce and Labor. did
not choose Fort Mif1in as the site OF the
proposed immigrant station. The story is
that the vessel sunk was one of those
that Joined IN the assault on Fort Mifiin
and that it contained specie for the pay
ment OF soldiers in the British army. Had
Fort MifHin been selected as the site riv-
ermen sav that the channel OF the stream
and the shore would have been dredged
by the government, 50 that the question
as 10 whether or not the war vessel was
lying at the bottom OF the Delaware

WHO'S COIN GTO Do
WILL WOMEN UPSET

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.--The
socialists dream of land where
everyone labors and gets a. fair
reward for toll is handed an aw-
full punch by Thos. Dixon, jr., the
man who wrote 1.-THE Leopard's
Spots" a book that almost re-
opened the negro problem. ~
Mr.. Dixon's latest is "Com-
rades." sr.r /,
He puts 1000 ideal socialists on
an island, called Ventura. They
have plenty of money to try for
a Utopia. "a :
But the woman folks make
trouble. They all want to be
chorus girls, authoresses, or art
lists. Nobody wants to scrub or do
the washing. Then he has the
women folks fall in love with diff
ferent leaders. One or two of the
girls go wrong and won't be good.
All this makes trouble among the
men.
At last there is a terrible mix
up, and troops from San Francisco
are called to save the life of the
downthrown leader, a young mil
lionaire.
Mr.. Dixon makes all the trouble
come from women and the ambi-
ton which they inspire in men.
The socialists are bound to at
tack him for this book.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 80.
interesting facts are
brought to light by the discussion
over the action of the senate in
increasing the salary of future
presidents of the United States
from $4,000 to 100000 year.
Senator Bourne, who introduced
the bill, figures out that the salary
of President Roosevelt is one
fourteen hundred and fifteenth
(1-1415) part of 1 per cent of the
total revenues of the government.
The total revenues of the govern
ment in 1904 were something
above $707, 100000.
The senator has likewise fig
ured out the total wealth of the
nation at $127,0OO,0O0,000. He
thinks that nation of 85,000,000
people, 100000 square miles of
territory, and wealth and revenue
as estimated above ought to give a
larger fraction of it to its chief
executive.
The annual civil list of other
republics on this continent, none
of them so great or wealthy as the
United States, are proportionately
greater than ours. Mexico gives
Diaz $109,732 a year, the civil list
of Brazil is $84,500, Argentina
$4,000, Peru $40,570, Uruguay
$1,000, while the United States
civil list-which is the presidents
salary and the money appropriat-
ed for maintaining the executive
mansion grounds, etc.-is $176.-
900.
France Is very rich, but she, Is
very frugal. She pays her presi-
dent $4,000 year and $114,-

tai of $22S.000. The estimated
national wealth of France Is $50 :

LABOR UNIONS Join War
AGAINST CONSUMPTION
BY Peter Power.

Unrelenting war has been de-
clared upon tuberculosis by or.
ganized labor in New York state
Representatives have voted to CO.
Operate with the New York State
Charities Aid association, which
comprises scores of local chart
table organizations, and the state
government Is also extending It's
assistance in a campaign that is
being planned to make a COM
|bined effort to minimize and
stamp. out the whole plague.
The unions are arranging the
public mass meetings and arous-
ing the working class to the neces-
sity of joining In the fight against
consumption.
The unions of Albany, for ex-
ample, have established tubercu-
losis pavilion, which was recently
dedicated by Gov. Hughes and is
the first institution of its kind to
be started in the eastern part of
the country. Since this project
has been undertaken organized
workers in Buffalo, Rochester,
Brooklyn, Schenectady and Bing-
hamton haxe taken the initiative
to build pavilions. The printers,
stonecutters, cigarmakers, gar
ment workers and a number of
other trades are particularly &C
tive in promoting these life-saving
stations.
1t is the hope of those in
charge of this great cooperative
movement in New York state to
make record in practical effort
that will challenge the admiration
of the whole country and cause
other states to take similar action.
The promoters of the triple alli-
ance declare that they will not
hesitate to employ the most dras-
tic measures against so-called
property and individual rights in
their campaign to wipe out a
disease that has no place in civil
liked society and would be non-ex-
istent if 1t were not for greed and
