William J. Bryan has a new lecture
entitled The Price of a Soul" IN
his lecture he attempts to answer the
question: How much money can a
man rightfully acquire?" He is quoted
as saying: Some people have earned
a great deal more than they have
either desired or collected. We have
one man who is worth $500 .GO0, 900.
shall not say that no one has ever
earned that much. | believe some have
earned more. | believe Thomas Jeff
erson earned more than that. | be
lieve Abraham Lincoln rendered ser
vice to society worth more than $500

earned more than this by services

What Will Taft DO?

The people demand revision of the
tariff downward. The Aldrich bill not
only revises it upward, but 200 ar,i-
cles in the Dingley bill are untouched.
If the bill is passed in its present
shape what will President Taft do
about it? He has declared in favor OF
a downward revision He is known
as man Of decision and courage. but
has he the courage to fight Aldricn
Hale, Scott, Cannon and all the ,rusre
and great protected interests of the
country? Will he stand by the con
sumer or the long favored interests:
The president will soon be calle5
upon to face the great issue of his
administration. He will be called IN
on to prove that he is independent 81
these great interests or that they con
troll him.
These interests forced Roosevelt tC
take a backward step. He was known
as moderate tariff man and it is ;
matter of common knowledge that h;
purposcd in his first message to recon
mend substantial tariff reductions.
But the Aldriches. Cannons and pro
tected interests halted him.
Where Roosevelt faltered. dare Tai
go ahead? If he acts for the people h,
VIII be the man of the hour. If \,
fails to halt the interests" his admin
istration will be failure
The demand for tariff revision will
not down. If it is not settled ant
settled right, by the present congress;
1t will be the issue in the congress
ional elections in 1910 and as the eleo
tons go in that year they are likely t.
go two years later.

ceedings were not only interesting 70
those who attended, but also profit
able to the cause of good roads
throughout the country.
But little attention has been given
the practical Improvement of the coun-
try roads in the United States until
within a decade. A spasmOdic interest
has been created in some localities,
but no general organized movement
was begun until the National Good
Roads congress was instituted for the
purpose of impressing upon the pub
lie mind benefits that would accrue TO
| the people of the United States from
the establishment of good roads wher-
ever practicable. and that embraces
nearly every locality.
This country is proverbial for its
bad roads, and Illinois is not far if any
above the average in the character ot
its country highways. At certain sea
sons of the year the roads of the corn
belt of this state are all but i'm
lpassable. There is room for strenuous
missionary work in this state with =
view TO enlightening the public mint
on this important subject. Bad roads
| it is said, are directly responsible 70,
the loss in the United States of ovel
one billion dollars year. How much
of this tremendous loss falls upon the
state of Illinois, no one knows; but
it must amount to several millions q
dollars. The money contributed to the
building of good roads is money wei
Invested. and will return large divi
dends.
The National Good Roads congress
at its approaching session will discus.
plans and methods for saving the vas
sum of money that is lost through ba,
roads, and the best and most econom
Iical way to construct good roads il
lCrder 10 secure the needed results. The
congress will be attended by mel

y better system of highways is one

Hildegarde rang off abruptly. Her
head went down on her arms. Trem0rS
shook her bowed figure. Hot tears
rained from her hidden eyes.
Jack and IIildegarde had been good
friends. The worldly wisdom which
belonged 10 their station in life. the
tacit acceptance of the theory that
every girl owes it to herself TO marry
money if she can, alone had kept them
from being more. There had been
times when the glowing eyes of the
young man suggested an almost ire
SiStible temptation to set at defiance
the traditions of his class. and the ffut-
ter OF the girls heart had acknowl-
edged some uncertainty as TO her own
course under such circumstances.
But if Jack had kept his tongue in
leash. even if his eyes had been less;
tractable, and had gone his way and
left the field to Darrell with his mil
lions,
