THE VILLAINS SHOULD BE lDEN-
Titled.

The blowing up and burning of the
plant of the Los Angeles, California,
Times, with the loss of life and in
jury to persons is a terrible affair, and
it is up TO the authorities of the Pa
cific coast to run down the villains
concerned in this business and see
that the guilty parties do not escape.
Naturally the trades unions are charg
ed with this TERRIBLE crime on account
of the long warfare of The Times
against them and it's success in main
tanning it's independence. 1t is right
to say that the union leaders strongly
disavow the murders and strive to help
in every way possible to detect the
authors of the crime. Until there is
some other solution of the matter they
will be under suspicion unavoidably.-
Bridgeport Standard.
The movement to track the criminals
shows unusual energy and every true
man in the country hopes that their
identity and condemnation may be
complete. This is one of the most
dastardly crimes ever committed in
the United States and until it has
been otherwise settled the Los Angeles
Times owners are not to blame for
suspecting the organization which 1t
has been SO long and persistently and
successfully fighting. 1t is strange
that the fate of the innocent was not
considered for a moment, and that
such reckless madness could ever be
harbored in the hearts of our fellow
men The rewards now upwards of
800 900 win be an incentive for the
greatest sleuths in the country to get
upon the track of the offenders, and
it is to be hoped that this whole mat
ter will be SO completely uncovered
that there can be no doubt as to where
the responsibility lies. If it is the
result of conspiracy, then may the
conspirators all be discovered and
eventually be punished for their das-
tarly work

Growth of Socialism Alarms Japan

Kotoku, Kojiro Nishikawa and Toshik
Sakae. Most of the prominent agitat.
ors OF this class are now in jail, and
the government Is showing no mercy
In stamping them out.
A Japanese, writing Of these condi-
lions, says: Socialism is a product
OF civilization, and all civilized coun-
tries have Socialists in their midst.
1t is, therefore, a natural phenomenon
that Japan which has entered into the
list Of civilized nations, should have
them, too. While European books are
freely introduced, and people are al
lowed TO study foreign languages SO
they can qualify to read these books,
and while the present conditions re-

beaureaucratic government will not

policy against Socialists will avail"

WHY MEN WEAR TROUSERS.

No living man OF this age ever de-
liberately chose to adopt trousers.
He was forced into them and all other
eccentricities of dress by women. In
the very earliest sartorial experience
he is swathed In a queer bundle OF
incoherent bandages by a woman.
Later she puts him in cute dresses
so that the neighbors cant tell him
from his little sister. Still later she
cuts of his curls and puts him In
knickerbockers, and he puts on long
pants when she gives the word. not
before.
That il all that man has TO do with
wearing trousers. Women forced him
into them In the first place, and now
he is afraid to wear anything else for
fear Of making sensation.-Benton

difference between scrub" corn and

d much larger yield per acre than

plant a quarter of an acre and give

Farmers Ideals.

| am only doing justice to the
farm people when affirm that
their ideals of life are higher, their
motives purer and their records of
crime less than those of any other
class of people The great MAORI
ty of them are honest, industrious,
intelligent and charitable. What
can constitute a higher type of citi-
zenship?
The atmosphere of the farm is
pure. 1t speaks for itself. From
it has come the majority of the
greatest and best men and women
of the nation. Statistics prove this
assertion. No where does the love
of home so strong as among farm
people, and it is a recognized fact
that the home makes the nation"
Theodore Roosevelt recognized this
when he said: There is no more
important person exerting her in
fluence upon the nation than the
farmers wife, no more important
home than the farmers home, and
it is of national Importance to do
the best we can for both"
Ask any merchant in any town
or city to what class of people he
would rather extend credit, and he
will tell you the farmer every time;
but in order to pay his honest debt
the farmer and his family deny
themselves many of the pleasures
of life and some of the necessities.
People representing the great basis
industry of the country should not
be obliged to do this. They should
receive a just compensation for the
products of their farms.
The thought of the farm people
is not How much can l get out of
you?" but How much can l do for
you?" The old saying that virtue
is its own reward does not seem to
apply to the farmer on this earth,
but it may in the hereafter. He
does not seem to be a part of any,
thing really, except work and taxes
The same rate is placed on him as
upon the man whose business pays
a Is per cent dividend. He does
not receive the positions of honor
and trust that are given men in
other callings. He knows that in
the majority of cases it is only the
poorest of any professions who stay
in the country, for the attractions
of the great American dollar t
most people are far greater than
the song of birds. the hum of bees
green grass. pure air and beautiful
sunshine.
His charity! If you are unfor
tunate ask any one in the country
for money or food. If they have
it, see how quickly you will receive
it.. Ask in the city for the same
and you will get-30 days. l know
there. is law against begging, but
there is no law which prevents G
person from being hungry or IN
fortunate. Charity toward all is
one of the strong characteristics of
the American farmer.-Mrs. Geo
