GATHERING NEWS OR
SOMETHING AS GOOD

This paper believes that its
readers are entitled to know of the
actions of men in public life and
our aim has always been to fur
nish current news in fairly readable
form. To secure facts and data
bearing upon measures of impor-
lance, headquarters and fountain
heads are first sought. 1t is to be.
said to the credit of our citizens
that there is usually no effort to
suppress facts that are sought for
publication.
Occasionally, however, we come
across an individual who "tightens
up aplenty. In order to give the
readers of this periodical a good
story right off the reel, of a matter
of much concern to Monte Vista
and the country surrounding, it
was decided to interview members
of the bert sugar promotion CON-
mittee. Those who attended the
meeting were free to express them
selves, and their views are printed
elsewhere in this issue.
In endeavoring to see X. b.
Wallace, for an expression of
opinion, it was learned that he
was at home, i'll. The telephone
was brought into use, and Mr..
Wallace responded to the call.
When requested to express him
self in regard to progress of the
sugar mill, he said he had nothing
to give out on the subject. 1t is
therefore that we are forced to re.
port failure to elicit anything from
the gentleman. Possibly his atti.
tude may be judged from the fact
that he was not in attendance at
the meeting, and that his actions
are to be taken rather than his
utterances.

MOTHERS VISIT.

An old-fashioned woman from the
country recently packed some fried
chicken, bread and doughnuts in a
market basket and went to see her
daughter who lives in big city. She
was scandalized when tho family stay
ed up till IL o'clock and decided that
she wouldn't tel Pa about 1t when
she wrote home next day. "He might
think we have fallen into evil ways. -
she said TO herself as she was going
of to sleep. She awoke at her usual
time, o'clock, and the house seemed
strangely quiet Town folks do get
lazy" she thought, land they probably
don't get up till s." She dressed and
went downstairs and watched the
clock until 8. Not sound: then she
waited till 6, and at Z, between hun
ger and alarm, she was almost crazed.
They've been murdered In their
beds.' she yelled at s O'Clock from the
front steps, and soon the house was
filed with people rushing In to see
what had happened. The family were
surprised and indignant when police,
market gardeners, newsboys. etc.
rushed into their bedrooms and woke
them up, and this explains why tho
old-fashicned woman came home that
day. Il never expected" she sobbed

MOTORS AND MONEY

The Boston News Bureau" finan-
cial newspaper. published state
ment to the effect that Western ana
Southwestern bankers have agreed
to lend no money to borrowers who
inteLd TO use II to buy motor-cars. In
one Kansas City bank are fifty-two
real estate mortgages, the money Tor
Which went for automobiles -kAn-
sas City resents this statement, and
the Kansas City Star has searched
In vain for the bank with the fifty-two
nc rtgages. On the other hand, news
paper accounts show that In several
Southwestern states the local bankers
have publicly deplored some such con-
dition. The Oklahoma State Bankers
ASSOCIATION passed this resolution:
Resolved, That the banking fra
ternit.. of Oklahoma should use their
power and influence 10 curtail the
tendency OF the people of the state
toward extravaganza and speculation
In real estate and the prevalent habit

line"
In answer TO queries sent cut by a

SOME THINGS
TO BE PURGED

There are three articles In the Au-
gust Worlds Work which, taken eth
er collectively or separately, give a
somewhat severe shock to the cham
pion of our national government as a
model In The Crime Of the Pork
Barrel, Mr.. Hubert Bruce Fuller
shows the method by which millions
OF dollars are appropriated for river
Improvement, uselessly, In favor or
congressional districts. "A Congress
mans Letters by a member OF the
house OF representatives, who has seen
more than ten years service, tells OF
the countless demands made upon a
congressman by his constituents.
These demands for special favors
range from $10.000,000 approprta-
tons to cases Of petty larceny. In
Schedule THE Cotton Tariff" Mr..
Samuel NJ. Evans shows by a detailed
illustration just how Tariffs have long
been made for the particular benefit
of private industries. The illustration
given is that OF the way in which Mr..
Jas. r. MacColl and Mr.. Henry =. Lip
pitt, two Rhode Island manufacturers
succeeded, with the help of Senator
Aldrich, in raising the schedule In the
new tariff law on cotton cloth, in some
cases several hundred per cent over
the old rate.

offered by a town In Oklahoma, be-
cause he said be believed that the
town showed II was in a precarious
financial condition by having too many
motor-cars in proportion to the popu-
lation. What value to assign to such
bits OF newa It 10 not easy to say.
Certainly. IL they indicate that an un-
discriminating reaction ga4Hst-tAe
use OF motor-cars has begun, there Is
some cause for regret. There's a good
many people ride in automobiles,
whose financial resources ought to
counsel them to remain content with
bicycles. And II Is pretty clear that
a man who buys a motor purely as q
matter of pleasure, ought to have the
cash in hand first--to buy on credit
can be justified only where the ma
chine Ia to be an aid to business. On
the other hand, IL is doubtful II any
class of men has better justification
for buying automobiles than the farm
er who has the money. And 1t Is
equally doubtful II any other part OF
the country has had more real service
and pleasure, from cars than the
Southwest. They have been Of ines
Unable value in shortening the dis
tances between farm and farm, and
between farm and town. They have
given the opportunity for social life
to families that used TO live in COM
parative isolation. They have enabled
city people to live in country homes
even where no railways were near.
These services are not slight nor do
they exhaust the list.-Colliers.

Questions For Mr.. Aldrich

Still declining to make a specinc
reply TO Senator Bristow's charges,
Senator Aldrich complained to a cor
respondent of the New York Ameri-
can that the accusation, which he
characterized as "a pack Of lies, had
not been made In the senate.
No doubt Mr.. Bristow will accom-
modate the gentleman from Rhode Isl-
and in this respect in due course.
Meantime. following troublesome In
surgent habit, he may appear In Prov
idence or Newport and tell Mr.. Aid
rich's neighbors all about 1t. Yes
terday at Paola. Kan, he repeated the
charges and challenged Mr.. Aldrich
to make specific denial OF any OF
them
When the tariff bill passed the
house the duty on manufactured ruo-
Der was fixed at 80 per cent The
senate committee on finance, OF which
Mr.. Aldrich Is chairman, increased
the rate to 35 per cent, and such is
now the law. Is that lie?
Soon after the tariff went into eff
feet a rubber trust was formed with a
capital Of $40,O00,000. OF which Sen
ator Aldrichs son IL general manager
and In which both father and son are
large stockholders. Is that lie?
The dividends declared by the trust
during the first eight months that the
tariff was in force amounted 10 1872
per cent on its preferred stock OF $10,.
O0o. 900. Is that lie?
Mr. Bristow also accuses Senator
Aldrich OF increasing the duties On
