manner in which this has been man
pulated. 1t will go far toward excit-
ing to renewed force that feeling of
wrath. of class hatred already too
strong among us. 1t will do much to
foster disrespect for and breed dis
loyalty to the government When
those who are i'll able to meet the
burdens of government see its en-
ormous expenditures continue to in
crease, larger armies and larger ma
vies, increased burdens everywhere,
and learn furthermore that all this
must be met by tax on consumption
while incomes which sustain luxury
and breed idleness and idiocy go un-
taxed they will have little mercy with
you in the hour i'm which you must
plead with them against radical
changes in the government. I do not
know how long we can deal with
patient people in this way. But / ven-
ture to prophecy not much longer.
Il hope therefore the governors and
legislatures of this country will be
brave enough to do their duty in this
matter. II Is time the people I'm this
broad land bestir themselves upon this
vital question before it is too late to
do So 1t would be nothing less than
catastrophe If this amendment
should be defeated. If we are going
also to be cut off from an appeal to
the court. This is in every sense the
peoples fight"
Senator Borah outlined his conclu-
sions as follows:
THAT the proposed amendment
adds nothing to the taxing power Of
the national government. This power
was complete, unfettered, plenary, be-
fore. 1t can be no more than that
should the proposed amendment be
adopted.
2-The proposed amendment does
not deal or propose to deal with the
question of power which is already
complete but simply with the manner
and method of its exercise and use OF
that power.
3-No one has ever questioned the
power of the national government to
lay an income tax for as was said by
Justice White. the question has al
ways been whether an admittedly
unlimited power to tax has been used
according to the instruction as to
method" and it was to remedy the
method alone that the amendment was
submitted.
I-The words from whatever
source add nothing to the force oi
the amendment. II would. in consti-
tutional parlance. be just the same
II IL said ito lay and collect taxes on
incomes without apportionment Tor
who could then say that you would
not have the right to lay taxes on all
incomes? The present taxing power
would not be a particle stronger II II

pended? IL not whose fault is it?
These are questions the farmer should
solve before he grows red in the face
over the tariff or even the Central
Bank. By the way this Central Bank
question is gotten up by some busy
bodies in Congress to throw dust in
the eyes of the voter, and take his
mind from the real matters of i'm
portance before congress, such as
postal savings banks, the parcels post,
conservation of our resources and
similar great questions. Congress is
afraid to tackle these and therefore
must have foot ball to kick to make
the voters believe they are busy.
Congressman are only human and if
they find their constituents are care
less or indifferent they will not pay
much attention to them. The people
must learn to work out their own
problems and not let the politician
work for them. For the man who
works for his own interests Is much
buster than the man who is working
for some others interests.

The present meat boycott and the
Government investigation of the
meat trust will do some good, though
the boycott cannot last. The Ameri-
can people are mostly direct descen-
dents from the Anglo Saxons who are
notorious meat eaters. They cannot
be changed in month, year or even
a generation. They will eat meat If
they can obtain 1t. The present prices
are high but they are caused very
much by natural causes although the
trust has been taking an immense toll.

Too Much Politics, Too Little
Craftsmanship.

President Taft has called the lead
ers of the senate together and de-
manded that they get busy and pass
some of the legislation demanded by
the party which elected him, The
first and foremost is the Postal Saw
ings Bank measure. 1t seems strange
that such drastic measures we're
necessary by the President to get
needed legislation. But there are a
large number of members in both
houses of Congress who still think the
world has come to a standstill and no.
thing new has any value. They are
stumbling blocks to good government
and will soon be swept aside by the
voters. The world has moved. Ec-
.onomic questions were never SO
prominent in the United States be-
fore as they are today. There are big
questions to be solved and the man
who stands in the way of their right
solution will be swept aside as so
much chatf.
Farmers as a rule are strong party
adherents. And parties are all right
and have their proper functions to
perform. But in the final analysis,
good government, economically adj
ministered, is thousand times more
important than the success of any
party.
Politicians will talk about the 'rob
Der tariff to lead the farmer and
workingman from those subjects which
mean ten times as many dollars in
their pockets. The farmer and wage
Garner, of all men should not be led
astray by the mouthings of politi-
clans, whose only object in politics is
in getting an Office for himself or
his friends.
Whether the tariff is high or low on
the things farmer buys is a small
matter compared with the things he
buys on which there is no tariff.
Where he pays out dollar more or
less on account of schools, roads,
county government, freights etc., he
pays only a few cents on tariff goods.
These then are important things for
him to understand. He should ask
himself these questions: Are we get
ting value for the money we are pay
ing for our school system? If not
who is to blame? Are we getting val
ne for money paid to the road fund?
If not why? Are we getting value for
money paid to the county treasurer?
IL not where does it go? Is the tax
money paid to the state properly ex-

as follows: Is Cannon your choice for
the next Speaker? And do you en-
dorse the AIdrich- Cannon Tariff Law?
The first question was answered by 1899
editors. The CUES endorsing Cannon
numbered only $40 while those against
him numbered 1888. On the second
question only 80 endorsed the tariff
measure and 1855 were against it.
Nothing could better show the feeling
of western people against the Repub-
lican machine which has controlled
Congress for the past ten years. The
editors are close to their people and
know the feeling in the country and
when it is considered that but one in
five support the old regime it is time
for congress to sit up and take notice.

We commend to those of our
readers who are impatient with Pres
ident Taft because more is not being
accomplished, in Congress. to read
his late speech. The President in
addressing the republicans of New
York on Lincoln's birthday plainly
set out his ideas of the needs of the
American people and his demand that
the Republican party in congress
should enact laws to supply these
needs. He defends the tariff though
he is not satisfied with it. He show
ed however that it was revised down.
ward on articles of general consump-
tion and upward on luxuries. He de-
mands postal savings bank. He how
ever stated that amendments already
offered in Congress would defeat the
benefits of the measure and express
ed grave doubts of it's value as amend
ed in the senate. He asks that the
railroad bill which has received his
endorsement shall be enacted into a
law. 1t prevents injunctions without
a hearing and has strong features Of
regulation. He favors the admission
of New Mexico and Arizona as states.
The antitrust law he desires to be
made stronger and regrets the slow
progress of these cases in the courts.
The speech was a most courageous one.
The party in power should heed it's
warnings.

BATTLE AT MALVERN HILL
Enemy's Artillery Was Smashed to
Flinders as Fast as 1t Was I'm

l wonder how many of the com

week of August, 1862, writes F. E

Jersey, row living in Chicago in Ma
tional Tribune was in that de
structive scrap, which occurred July
/, when the enemy's artillery was
smashed to finders as fast as they
were numbered 1t was a sickening
spectacle; promiscuous mass OF
mangled horses, men and artillery.
The union gunners made nearly every
shot go to the mark
The union forces were rapidly going
to the James river, but they stopped
on the way long enough to give our
rebel friends as fine a dTubbng as
ever fell to the lot OF pursuing en-
envy.
When Gen. Phil KeaTny received his
orders that night to put his division
in line for the march southwark, his
fury and amazement found vent in
some hot language with embellish-
ments. He said I'VE have licked
them to-day, and we will finish EN- to
morrow" and l believe that he stated
q truth, as the enemy was badly
shaken up and demoralized from their
frightful losses.
After a month of inaction at Harri-
sons Landing, word was brought into
camp by scouts that a strong force of
rebels was at Malvern Hill. Rockers
division was ordered to prepare two
days rations and be ready to start
about dark. There might have been
other commands to follow but my
recollection of that is somewhat hazy
1t was a beautiful evening when we
filed out of the breastworks We
marched silently with our cups muf-
fed, but all felt gay and happy. We
glided along over a fine road in a
northeastern direction with scarcely
a halt until past midnight, when the
division was ordered to rest.

done, so we could get action on that
coffee which we were deprived of be-
fore daylight. We finally moved of
with our rifles at a ght-shoulder
shift.
Although we were ordered to march
slowly some invisible force got in our
legs that knocked that slow move
ment into a cooked hat. 1t was fast
time that suited us better at that
stage of the game, and we proceeded
to obey our own instincts by running.
When we got within a about 1000
yards of the brow of the hill up pops
the gray-clad enemy like lot of jack
rabbits. They rubbed their eyes only
to gaze on a column of men in blue
coming full tilt at them.
Two or three cannoneers rushed to
their guns and one fellow pulled the
lanyard and fired one shot over our
heads, but his service in the confeder-
ate army came to an abrupt close by
reason of Yankee bullet that plowed
into vital spot.
A lot of the infantry rolled down
the hill to the river road and escaped,
but we gobbled up quite a bunch of
Georgians, who didn't seem to be
heartbroken over their capture, and
when we shared our coffee with them
some were ready to renounce JEFF
Davis and his confederacy.
