STATE PAYS THE ".

The present square dsa;" SIT t.
administration has more men in i!
who are trying to boost themselves
'nso rLtter jobs while drawing salpr-
les from the state, than any other
administration in recent ye rs.
Governor Stubs draws his salary
regularly and yet spends little time.
and for the next four months wild
spend less, in Topeka attending t.
the Job he was hired for. He is not
only running for the governorsnip
but also senator-and is spending the
peoples money in doing it.
Attorney General Jackson who IS
paid a good salary by the state, Is
now spending most of his time run
ming for congress and Of course the
peoples business is neglected.
T. A. McNeal has been state print
er for three terms, draws a big sal
airy, and instead of attending to the
duties of his office, is running around
over the First district trying to break
into congress.
The people should rebuke these
self-seeking politicians who think on
ly of self aggrandisement and profit.

STAND BY THE PRESIDENT.

Attorney General Wickersham
struck the right note In his speech
Saturday night. 1t was vigorous,
aggressive, able exposition OF the
record of the Taft administration.
There has been by far too much
temporlzlng with a little coterie Of
malcontents in the Republican ranks.
The American people do not relish
'mollycoddling" as steady diet.
Mr.. Wickersham very truthfully and
pointedly said:
"Is It not time that all those who
call themselves Republicans should
stop coquettlng with the Democratic
party; should sink their individual
preferences about the details Of leg
islation and join with Republican
workers in carrying to fruition I'M
der our great, patient, candid, wise,
Republican president, the work OF
clinching the reforms of the last
eight years on the lines SO carefully
and 80 wisely laid down in the plat
form of 1908?
fWise legislation, embodying no
sudden impulse, but matured views
expressed in party council, is press
ed for enactment. When the ac-
count is cast and the people weigh
them in the balance at the last cleo,
ton, who will find most favor? They
who stood shoulder to shoulder with
the president in carrying out the
party pledges or those who, true to
no party principle, lowered like the
bat in fable, sometimes with one.
sometimes with the other, and in
the end was cast out and scorned
by both. philadelphia Public Led

GOOD REVENUEl PRODUCER.

Lawrence Journal: The fact must
not be lost sight of that the new tariff
law is proving the best revenue pro-
Queer the country has had. Until
the law was enacted the revenues Of
the government did not meet the
expenditures. That was an alarming
condition in times of peace and pros
perity. A good many people had an
idea that the revision Of the tariff
was to reduce prices. That was only
one reason. The other was to raise
revenues so that the government
needn't be going into debt.

CANNOT RLAME TARIFF.

Certainly 1t is not Just to blame
the poor old tariff If free hides make
shoes cost more. Neither is 1t just
to blame the tariff because eggs and
butter and meat and other food
stuffs cost more. This question is
not one that any Free-Trade news
paper can settle by blaming 1t on
the tariff. The conditions that have
caused the increased cost Of living
are manifold and various. In the
words of a well-posted authority,
This question of the cost OF living
is a great deal deeper, wider and
more complicated than a great many
persons who are solving 1t with a
