The recommendations of the Ohio legislative commits

have passed practically unnotced yet its treatment of
economic and domestic subjects is Of the very highest
Importance to the whole nation.
What relief is there finally in bowling about high
costs, cold storage and combinations controlling prices
of foodstuffs, when conditions such set forth
the two paragraphs following:
l. The bureau OF and labor reports that the
value Of foodstuffs exported has fallen from 55OOO0O
In 1898 to $3.50 100000 the fiscal year OF 1870 cattle
ported in 1910 12 0OO against $4,000 in 1904 lard

1902; onefifth that of 1900 meat and dairy prod

In short, rapidly approaching time when
WILL NOT PRODUCE ENOUGH TO EAT, and that
old theory about Uncle Sam feeding the world will be but
haZy dream.
2. The Washington authorities put the immigration
for the fiscal year 1910 at 100000 The first nine
months show 667,949. Taking last month a sample,
there came to us $500 Germans 3oS6 Italians, 22oO3
Polish and 1906 Greeks, mostly agricultural folk.
1t safe to say that 80 per cent of these people
will be nonproducers-that is they will locate in the

Here we have threatened shortage in production and

SPOILED A BRAKEMAN AND MADE A
LAWYER

Because Hugh L. Dickson of San Bernardno Cal. was
admitted to practice before the supreme of the
United States few days ago, every boy in the
United States should cheer up.
He may not know Dickson, and he may have doubt
as to the honor in the abstract of being admitted prac
ce before the United States supreme court for undoubt
eddy many scoundrels have that distinction.
But Dickson's case is worth thinking about.
He general counsel for the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen and Engnemen.
Before he became lawyer he locomotive fireman.
In an accident he lost both hands
Useless locomotive, he studied law. 1t sometimes
though lawyers with hands have hard time
finding the right page in the law books but Dickson with
any hands, has found enough to get before the supreme
court of the United States if he did have to hold the
pen between the stumps when he signed the roll Of the
highest court in the world
Sometimes think things coming hard and we are
disposed to rest and that the world
us living anyway.
The world owes of us living.
1t like Dickson living.
And if does not pay they get out and collect it. with
without the hands that nature them to work out
