Therestes ofDrea1s.
An old man sittIng,with PIPE at The
Talking to shadows OF dsys Of yore,
Walking with memory's hand In his
cwn
Back TO the beautiful. far-away zone,
Back 10 the boyhood of sunshine snd
glee,
Down ~ the river and under the tree.
Unto the gates Of dream,
There by the lilies he stands,
Stunning himself IN the golden CLEAN,
Warming aud rubbing bis hands.
A ysung man marching, with head
lie high,
Over the hills where the bright hopes
lie;
EAs - earnest, with h,abs that
To he beautiful beat Of the heart Of
spring
On q the future, with will for the fray,
To The fields Of venture, the cities of
day:
Unto the gates of dream,
There by the fountains of youth.
Stopping Ito sdrink of the crystal
stream,
And on TO the battles OF truth.
A oman knitting a,granGchilds sack
Calling her own sweet girlhood back,
Living again In the lavendar past,
With shadows Of old times round her
cast;
Grooming a song as her needles click,
And the tears fall slow, and the mist
- grows thick:
Unto the gates of dream,
~ There by the portals of rose,
a child again in the chlldheart
beam,
Hopping and skipping she goes.
A lass with the April of sun and gloom
In her cheeks Of rose. and the violet
bloom
OF loves sweet legend upon herlips,
over the meadows of morning trips
Singing song of the yeas to be,
When lad keeps tryst by TIE green
wood tree:
Unto the gates of Dream,
There by the rainbow skies,
The old, sweet light of the moenlit
night
Aglow in her loyelit eyes.
A conquerer counting his trumphs
Ger,
With heart that yearns for The life of
yore.
And a vision swimming before his
gaze
or a barefoot lad in the vanished days
OF the olden, golden, fond Back There
With mothers hand In his tousled
hair:
Unto the gates of dream,
Out of the strife's red rain;
Oh, to go back DER the golden track
To the arms Of mother again,
Old and young, and the fair and sweet
With weary limbs, or with dancing
feet,
Sooner or later, as life whirls by.
On the selfsame road, meath the self
amesky-~
With memory leading them by the
hand
Wander away to the cherished land.
Unto the gates of dream,
There in the lure of the chime,
The pilgrims shadows go over the
meadows
And purple pastures of time.

Consul General John L. Grif-
fiths of London, submitting for
a review of prices OF 32 of the
leading necessaries of life | n
Great Britain, presents in the
price of bread in England an
anomalous condition, a condition
which should give the pseudo
economists on this side of the
great ditch something to ponder
over. A four-pound loaf of bread
was sold in England in 1896 for
1886 cents, in 1897 for 1894
cents, and in 1898 for 11.74
cents. The bulk of the wheat
from which the English house
wife bakes her bread coming from
the United States, 1t is selfevi-
dent that American wives and
mothers with slender purses must
be longing for the day when the
infant industries of this country
have attained self-supporting ma
turity, when she may hope for
protection from the greedy nav
of the all-devouring trusts. A
Bounce loaf of bread here
for 5 cents to a 64-ounce loaf at
IL y cents in England is too wide
divergence to long foster patriot
ism.
Secretary Wilson of the depart
ment of agriculture at Washing
ton, under date of December IA,
1909, is authority for the state
ment that the lower the grade of
beef the greater the percentage of
gross profit. In Boston, for illus
tration, the rate of gross profit is
nearly twice as great for beef cost
ing cents at wholesale as for
beef costing IL and 11h cents.
Low-priced beef is marked up
nearly twice as much relatively as
lhigh-priced beef. In other words,
perhaps it is a safe inference that
the poor people pay nearly twice
as much profit as the well-to-do
people pay.
I could proceed ad infinitum
that something more than glitter
ing generalities are required to
appease long suffering people
Iclamoring to be freed from the
exactions of the monster trusts,
who are sapping the very life
blood of this nation, and if the
Hon. Stephen B. Elkins succeed
through his committee to accom-
plish the object of it's mission,
many sins laid at his door whilst
engaged in acquiring his fifty or
one hundred millions will be
atoned. OSCAR R. REDLICH.

INCREASED COST OF LIVING

To the Editor of the Times:
The leading necessaries of life
have for the past two or three
years been engaged in what ad-
visedly may be termed Marathon
race, whilst for the same period
wages, the sole source of income
OF the masses, have been doing
either a snail or crawfish stunt.
The question, whether Cook or
Peary discovered the North Pole
or the possibility of Halley's comet
not arriving on schedule time, has
to me been subordinate to the
great economic question: what
are the causes of the outrageously
uncalled-for advances in the cost
of living?" seemingly agree
with the late Barnum, that the
American people love to be hum
plugged. but unmindful of the
warning of the lamented Lincoln,
you can fool some of the people
all the time, and all of the people
some time, but you can't fool all
of the people all the time" Jas. J..
Hill declares that failure on our
part to keep up the fertility of the
soil has caused our enormous
shrinkage in the production of
cereals, ETC., and owing to the
rapid increase In our population a
consequent diminished per capita
availability arises, which in the
nature of things causes a rising
market. The Hon. Champ Clark
"has been shown" the why and
wherefore of high prices, which
he predicts have come to stay,
owing to the world movement of
people toward the towns and cit
les. In this movement the Hon.
Mr.. Clark it is to be presumed
includes Farmer" Patten of Chi
cago. who is SO actively engaged
In raising crops of wheat within
the boundaries of the Windy City,
being rewarded handsomely for
adding by the sweat of his brow to
the makings of the staff of life.
Thomas Nixon Carver, professor
OF economies, Harvard university,
speaking of the present high
prices, says: so long as the
gold standard Is maintained and so
long as the government pursues
the policy of free and gratuitous
coinage Of gold, the purchasing
power Of a dollar can never vary
appreciabIy from that of rs.
grains Of standard gold bullion.
Since the production of gold has
been going up by leaps and
bounds. the purchasing power of
gold bullion has been gradually
going down. This necessarily
means cheap money and high
prices" II Is an established fact

fof long standing, that the most
learned experts disagree.
The Hon. Stephen B. Elkins of
West Virginia and, modesty for
bid, yours truly of Tacoma, are
no exception to the rule. Intro
ducing a resolution January 8,
asking for an investigation into
the prices of the necessaries of life
and the cost therefor since 1900,
Senator Elkins, chairman of the
committee of interstate COM
merce, in part said: THE cost of
living is outstripping wages and
incomes. That brings want and
misery to large numbers of fami-
lies. 1t means that women and
children are not getting proper
food and clothing, and that chill
dren cannot be sent to school and
get either an education or the
foundation of an education, and
that means our civilization is in
jured. Food, shelter and clothing
are the three absolute essentials
of every family, as shelter in
cludes fuel" said Senator Elkins.
THE cost of all of these has ad-
vanced alarmingly. 1t is not to be
wondered at that the people are
concerned about conditions. il
hear from 1t constantly"
These views are not from a So
cialistic leader, but from a multi
millionaire. In the opinion of the
Hon. Stephen B. Elkins some
thing more cogent is needed in
explanation of this vital question
than the makeshift opinions ad
vanced by the Hills and Clarks.
International in scope, this all.
absorbing theme must soon arrest
the attention of all thinking men
in every civilized country.
