The President on Socialism.

The Presidents generous Sympathies
have led him to respond to so many invi-
tations from all parts of the country, to
make frequent speeches upon small as
well as great occasions, that these can
not be all of equal Importance nor always
as well considered as the President S
public utterances should be if they are to
carry the weight that ought to belong to
them. This is illustrated in his speech in
Michigan, where he alluded in a quite
casual way to subject SO large and inn
portant that anything the President may
say upon it must have significance.
He expressed only what every one
recognizes, that recent trend has been
toward some of 'collectlvism, which
ultimately involves the whole conception
of the constitution of private property.
He used the word Socialism," as we all
use it, for lack of i better term, without
reference to any exact definition. 1t sug-
gests a conception Of society and govern
ment contrary to that on which our
political institutions are based, and the
President does not exaggerate the prob
lens which this modern tendency pre-,
sents in our practical politics. But it is a
subject with too many complications TO
be referred to merely incidentally. While
no one will dispute what the President
says, there are many who will try to make
it difficult for him not to say more.
The connection was not entirely un-
assalable II would be possible to con
tend that the collectivist tendency has
been prompted by the policies Of the
party which the President regards as
most capable Of combating them, or al
least of directing them TO safety. An old
fashioned constitutonalist might here
challenge the President on his own
ground without dIsputing his plea for re-
sponsible organization The history oil
parties is another subject too large to be
disposed of unassaIahly in an oiIhanc
speech. Yet there is serious thought.
fulness in this as in most Of the Presidents
speeches that makes it worthy the atten
ton Of his countrymen.--Ff Ffiladelbhit

United States Troops Camp at
the Fair Grounds.

Artillery and cavalry from Fort Meyer,
Virginia, visited Frederick on Friday, the

after the concert and dress parade were
permitted to visit the city, and in short
time the camp was deserted, only the

Coffee Costs Too Much.

Congressman Longworth has been in
vestigating coffee and has discovered
some facts which are of general interest.
He has consulted the biggest coffee men
in the country and he finds out that the
average price of all coffee laid down in
New York is 81 cents pound. Allow
ing for waste and shrinkage, it is claimed
that the warehouse price should be at the
most IoH cents. Then comes the roast
ing, in which good deal of weight is
lost, but the consumer IN this country
pays from IS to 30 cents pound for the
best coffee There is no duty here,
although in Germany the duty is cents
a pound and the cost to the consumer is
2I cents. Whether roasted or not is not
specified.
Coffee drinking is national occupa-
ton with us. 1t is not an institution as
in some European countries, but most of
us like coffee for breakfast and after
dinner. 1t looks as if we were paying
too much. Some one is making an I'M
mense profit, and Mr.. Longworth has
not told us who that man is.
When YOU 60 to grocery YOU are
offered all sorts of brands at different
prices. AS fact, great deal of the
coffee that we consume comes from
Brazil and the various brands all grow on
the same tree. Each tree furnishes var
ious qualities, but it is said that a better
expert than is usually found in this coun-
try to sort the beans. and it may be
that we get the same brands out Of the
same bag.
Coffee was put on the free list to make
the breakfast table cheaper. 1t is no
cheaper We certainly hope that Mr.
l.ongworth will go further with his re-
searches and let us know who is making
the inordnate profit between the inn
porter and the consumer.-LnQHirer.

THE FOURTH OF July.

1t may have been fitting that noise and
general jollification, abandonment Ia
"brag' were the prominent features OF
the Fourth OF July of the boyhood of our
nation, but we have reached our man
hood days now and must put away the
rattles and romps of children, and con
slider and act as becomes those who have
reached maturity and from whom the
world rlghtfullY expects and demands
mans performance and resulting good
for humanity.
There are clouds overhead and convul-
slons threatening under eur feet, and
while we reverently return thanks to
Almighty God for the past we should
carefully survey and consider the dan
gers that exist on the ground we must
march over in the future.
The field of politics has become a field
OF battle, and in the turmoil and strife
attendant upon any action where man is
pltted against man, there is neither time
nor inclination to pay attention to any of
the nicetes which oil the wheels OF social
progress; but in almost every other de-
partment of social life we find men repu-
lating their conduct toward each other
with more regard for the decencies of life
and the demands of honor In politics
alone do we find cruelty, falsehood,
meanneSs the rule rather than the excep-
ton.
The corrupt use of money for the pur-
pose of controlling elections has grown to
such huge proportions, and has become
SO open and flagrant, that the most care
less citizen must acknowledge it, and the
fact must or should alarm every man who
prizes the safety of our country's institu-
tons above the success of any one indi-
vidual or party. Success is purchased
with a prolific expenditure of money,
which could be secured in no other way,
and in direct opposition to public opinion
and against the desires and wishes of a
large majority of the voters. Yet the de-
ieated talnely submit year after year.
Men elected to responsible positions by
a conhding or leader-driven people barter
away their honor and manhood for a
paltry sum of money and vote for men
and measures in open violation of their
sense of duty and against both their con-
science and judgment; and sell them
selves, body and SOUL to wealthy aspir-
ant for exalted hohors, or soulless corpo-
rations bent upon public plunder This
is no fancy picture drawn from the realms
OF imagination, but a stern unpleasant
truth, seen even through the flowing flag
of independence Day, and forcing itseii
upon the thinking mind while ears are
filled with the Grafton roared forth BY
some politician who is glorifying "our
country" y"-and himself.

FouRrH on IuLY REVIVAL.

The revival of the Fourth of July is a
sign of the times. All over the broad
land the interest in the old.fashioned,
patriotic festival is awakening anew, and
this year every sizable village in the
United States resounds to the cracking Of
the miniature bombs which John China
man has taught us to use for expressing
our joy.
A new thrill of national pride is run
ming through the people; and it is followed
by desire to manifest that pride. Fourth
of July furnishes exactly the chance to
give vent to the feeling of exuberant
energy-the mysterious tendency to ex-
pansion, and the old selfassertive fever.
The uncomfortable desire to ''hear the
eagle scream" shows that the nation
knows its strength and means to use it.
We menace nobody, but we mean to
gang our ain gait without paying much
attention to objections or obstacles.

wHEKE THE FLAG WAS poRN.

The small two-story house still stand
ing at23o Arch street. below Third street.
Philadelphia, has an interesting history.
In it the first flag containing thirteen stars
and thirteen stripes, was made by Mrs
John Ross. The design for the flag was
from drawing made by George Wash
ington with pencil, and the flag thus de-
signed was adopted by a resolution of
Congress on the 18th day of June, I777.
A committee of Congress, accompanied
by General Washington, afterward called
upon Mrs. Ross and engaged her to make
flag from this design. The flag then
made is now known the world over as
the Star Spangled Banner of the United
States. There is a striking resemblance
between the design Of our flag and the
arms of General Washington, and it is
believed by many that the American flag
was derived from this heraldic design

 Last Monday was great day for the good roads movement Ill Independence county.
 MT. and Mrs. G. L. Saylors spent Sunday visiting friends in the Dota neighborhood.
 One of the greatest needs of Newark now in the way of public improvements is concrete walks.
 Mrs. A. A. Henderson arrived home few days ago from a pleas ant visit with relative at McGreg- or, Texas.
 Dr. G. F. Maynard, the veteri- nary surgeon of Batesville, will be in Newark Saturday, October s, for one day only.
 Champ Clark of Missouri pre- diets an overwhelming victory for the Democrats in the approaching congressional elections.
 Wanted:- One secondhand corn mill, one feed Cutter, one second hand heating stove. Address W. J. Updyke, Hutson, Ark.
 Miss Victoria Pickens, who has been quite sick with slow fever at her home at Dota for four weeks, is reported to be improving.
 H. k. Hawthorne and little son, Clyde, returned Wednesday morn ing from Memphis, where they spent few days on business.
 If you want to go to Texas, see the White River Land & Invest ment Company about the excell- ent propositions in Texas lands they have to offer you.
 The people of Independence county have fully demonstrated the fact that they believe in good roads and are willing to lend their assistance toward building them.
 Mrs. w. l.. Hall returned Tues day night from St. Louis, where she spent two weeks visiting her mother. Her sister, Miss Devona, returned with her and will spend the autumn here.
 Dr. M. B. Owens of Magness was in town yesterday. He ex- poets to leave this morning (Fri- day) for Little Rock to take a postgraduate course in the College of Physicians and Surgeons.
 N. M. Alexander of Batesville was passenger up the road Tues day en route home from Atlanta, Ga., where he attended the meet ing of the Sovereign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows.
 Every Arkansas citizen who can do so should attend the State Fair at Hot Springs. It is a great educational factor, and few days spent at the fair will prove both beneficial and pleasant. The ex- pense is not great, and it will be worth many times what 1t will cost you.
 Over in crime-ridden Memphis the Memphis Law and Order Lea que has filed suit in the chancery court to have 120 saloons abated as public nuisance. It looks very much like the officials of Memphis are making greater efforts to pro- tect certain aw-breakers than they are to enforce the law.
 While the constructive spirit is rife The Journal would like to see the town officials do something toward launching a movement for building concrete sidewalks in Newark. Nearly everybody wants the walks and we believe they can be built now, if the movement is started in the right manner.

time. when the heat interrupted his

with the realization that he had been
robbed.
"Robbedl well / guess yes" he said to
himself in dismay as he felt for his pocket
book. He thrust his hand into his hip
pocket, where had lodged the coy roll,
and his hand went through a back door
which had been carved into the trousers
by some one who was then the richer
by $3.50
AS he slept, he had been visited by some
one who succeeded In cutting a hole into
his pocket and extracting his leather
pocketbook which contained $500 In Cana
dian $40 bills and the remaining $50 In bills
OF a smaller denomination. He reported
the matter TO the police. but was unable to
give any clew of the possible perpetrator OF
the deed. He had been In Omaha but a
week and a half and Is a laborer. He
stated at the station that he would prob
ably look for work In this city and at the
same time keep his eye open for a man
with leather purse and good looking
