Salary List of the Nation

1t is well that the people Of this coun-
try should realize what a burden their
government is coming to be. We know
what vast sums have been spent and are
being spent for army and navy and pen
sions, but we do not always realize now
great has been the increase in the ordina-
ry expenditures. 1t was pointed out DUR
ing the last campaign that almost 100000
names had been added to the nation pay
roll during the administration of President
Roosevelt. This involved an increase of
salaries Of $7O.0OO,O0O. The increase
in empolyes was at the rate of / 4 900 a
year, and in salaries of $l0,000,000 a
year. In the last full year Of MIR. Roose-
welt this rate of increase was exceeded,
the number Of new employees being H.
900. And the figures are still climbing.
We now have 10000 public servants,
as against $4,000 last year.
These figures should make US pause.
We are now paying more than $780,
100000 in salaries alone. Each man,
woman and child is being taxed $3.50
each year simply for the ordinary expens-
es Of the government, sum which used
to be almost enough to meet all expenses,
ordinary and extraordinary. No one
doubts that the government could, if it
were organized and conducted on bus
iness principles as it tprobably never will
be-be carried on for one-half the
amount now used to maintain it. But
even if we can not get on a business basis,
we oughtto be able to make some re-
trenchment in our pay roll. The land is
filled with special agents, secret service
men, inspectors and inspectors Of inspect
ors. Special counsel have been hired to
do work which other men were paid for
doing and should have done. Assistant
attorneys have multiplied beyond all rea-
son. And the result is now before us.
Nor have we reached the end.
1t is not surprising that Taft should
have good deal to say about economy.
1t is ar old-fashioned and almost forgotten
virtue. ln these days Of high prices and
mounting taxes, it is well that we should
give some attention to saving money
All this money comes out of the people,
much Of it from those who cannot shift
the burden Of taxation-that is the poor
er people. the much-taIked.of Of ultimate
consumers. Indianapolis News.

A Special Jury for Mr.. Taft

The action Of few editors in forming
a separate club yesterday Of the Kansas
republican editors who were willing to
endorse Taft is a striking proof Of the
weakness Of the president in Kansas.
The Kansas association is practically
republican in membership.
When Mr.. Taft was elected the en-
hre body would have endorsed him heart
lily.
Yesterday it was necessary for a few
Of the sc-called regulars to form a sepa-
rate meeting for the purpose Of passing
the resolution.
A resolution Of endorsement under
such circumstances is Of no value.
1t means nothing as an indication Of
strength.
1t merely serves to prove that Presi-
dent Taft's case in Kansas has to be
passed upon by jury selected for that
purpose, if favorable verdict is received.
Wichita Beacon, March 9th.
Barbour County index., 1910-03-16

Taft was endorsed again last week.
Thirty republican editors met in seclud-
ed corner during the meeting of the state
editorial meeting at Wichita and "resolv-
ed" in favor Of the president. twas the
same crowd that did things up brown at
the Kansas Day Club meeting but they
were wise enough not to let the insur-
gent editors know about the meeting.
This thing Of endorsing the president is
such an important matter that it isn't safe
to let very many in on it.

The last few weeks have proven that
the present administration must make the
fight Of its life if it wins at all. They
have resorted to every means possible to
draw peoples attention towardit. They
have tried every mems possible but some
way or other none Of them seem to work.
Their late st move. however, is a very
smooth one but will in no wise benefit
them. Their plan is to claim that
Stubbs is such a good Democrat that
there is no need of the people voting
tor democrat. This they are follow
ing up with series Of statements from
men Who are posing as Democrats, who
say they intend to support Stubbs and
that large number Of Democrats in
their respective communities will do the
same; butsthis is not proving as successful
as it was thought itSwould for nearly all
those who have come out so far have
not been actively engaged in the Demo
cratic party. They have been beaten
for Office on several occasions and are
said to have been furnishing the presen,
administration with facts as to what the
Democrats intend to do. They now
realize that they cannot hold the independ.
ent Republicans in line. they must dc
something to Offset the number Of votes
therefore their plan is to Try if possible
to get the Democrats to stampede tc
Stubbs. However. this will never be,
for outside Of possibly few who are
allied with certain elements of the
Republican party. there is no particular
reason why any Democrat should vote
against Hodges and they do not intend
to. This is merely part Of the plan o.
the present administration to get them.

Fred S. Jackson, the states attorney
general, who is now busy with his cam
paign for the Republican congressional
nomination in the Fourth district, is evi-
denty not very close student of political
history Of the county. In the opening
speech Of his campaign, delivered the
other night at Reading, he remark ed
that 10y the first time in its history the
Republican party faces a charge Of hav-
ing failed to keep a platform promise. 4"
The number Of platform pledges that the
Republican party has failed to keep in
times past is almost as numerous as have
been its platforms. The same is also
true Of the Democrats and the platform
promises they have failed to keep.

AN ANGRY MAN IN CHICAGO

twenty-nine years old, Of London. was
taken into custody by city detectives late
to-day as suspect in the Dr. Crippen
murder case Despite the difference OF
nearly twenty years in the ages of RICK
rard and Dr. Crfppen. the detectives took
the man TO the City Hall. searched him and
later examined his luggage at the Lake
Shore station.
Rickvtard had S2GDo in English negotiable

added to his troubles. as the detectives IN
sisted in knowing all about il Rickward
vas greatly incensed at his detention, and
for time refused to answer any questions
He was released few hours after he had
been arrested
The only reason given by the detectives
for arresting Rickward was the statement
that Rickward answered descriptions OF
