The circus business has suffered
such q chill during this erratic spring
that Chicago parents were offered an
unprecedented opportunity to snap up
at bargain prices as household pets
the hippo, lions, tigers, hyenas and
other items of at least one menagerie
which was halted and sold under the
hammer to satisfy creditors. The lions
were marked down" to 500 to $500
and perfectly good elephants to $500
to $4,000. The temperatures that have
prevailed for two months have kcpt
the theaters fun, while the tracing

amusement park have night after
night almost been deserted. The Lake

THE COLONEL
AND THE FENCE

The efforts OF Colonel Roosevelt
to ride the fence with regard to the
internecine strife now blasting the
republican party, when all his lean
ings by heredity and conviction are
toward the insurgent and against the
standpat element. are amusing.
He has steadily vociferated that
he was open TO conviction as be
tween the factions aud that he would
not intermeddle in the interests OF
either.
Yet he seems to have interfered
pretty effectually in the state of
Washington, and in the state of In
diana, where he proposes to speak
in behalf of Beverage. a branded-in-
the button-hole insurgent.
i cannot support any candidate
for nomination" ayerred the colonel,
in discussing the situation in Ohio,
but" he continued. Il can only say
that I hope PROGRESSIVE plat
form will be adopted in Ohio"
No American has a call to cues
ton the good faith of Colonel Roose-
welt. But any citizen of ordinary
intelligence, knowing the mans tenn
permanent and directness, would not
be surprised If. at any moment, he
cast expediency 10 the winds and
rode forth boldly under the flag OF
the insurgents.

the patent or regulate its use. The
United Shoe Machinery company is
case In point. Under the patent
laws and the New Jersey corporation
laws it has been enabled to impose
an onerous burden on the manufac-
turers of shoes. and naturally these
manufacturers have passed along the
burden to the wearers OF shoes.
The company secures its monopoly
in this way: 1t does not sell its ma
chimes but leases them and binds the
lessee not to use them on any work
that other machines are used on.
Thus it secures a monopolistic pro
lection for the use Of its own ma
chimes and suppresses the manutac-
ture of other machinery. II is no
use to appeal to the courts, because
the patent laws grant the authority
that enables the company to perpe-
trate this abuse Of the governments
bounty. II is another case where
privilege. and not the people. rules.
and the only way TO put an end
to such monopolistic abuses is to
amend the patent laws so that they
cannot be used for plundering the
people

A PLUNDERINc
MONOPOLY.

One Of the grossest abuses of the
patent laws has recently attracted at
tention- The United Shoe Machinery
company has declared a stock diyi-
dend Of ss,5OO.OOO. It has done this
in order to avoid the announcement
Of higher dividend rate on its can
ital stock Of about 10000 900. after
declaring dividends during the past
eight years totaling more than s2s.-
100000, or an annual average of II
per cent.
These immense profits are made by
machines that are patented. It is
right and proper that under the pat
ent laws the person who discovers a
useful invention should have the ex-
elusive use Of it for a time and be
properly accompanied by that ex-
elusive use But there should be a
reasonable limit. and when a patent
is so used that II becomes a mon.
opoly and bleeds the public. there
should be some means to terminate

II Arizona is to have her magniti-

capital can only be secured by a

Alabama Welcomes Capital

The favorable impression which the Gary, chairman of the United States Steel corporation. on the occasion of his recent visit combined with his statistical will prove Of far-reaching benefit to the whole south and especially to the min eral section Judge Gary is a close ob- server and his capacity for graphing with large problems and assimilating great masses of detail are well known to the public: while his position as the official head of the Steel corporation always com mands a wide hearing.
 The statements he gave out from Bir- mingham were published not only in all the important papers in the United States and Canada. but in European papers as we'll These statements 9a,s yfhge yflg fl followed up
 
 by optimistiGsers sers on his ret mean ear gave 10 the New YoFk'xthis Topertx.'urn east and now he publishes another buoyant statement about the Birmingham district, which will be found in The Age-Heralds telegraphic news.
 Judee Gary never tires of telling of Ala baina's hospitable treatment toward the curpoiation with which he is connected. He is keeny appreciative and Birming- hams friendly attitude made a particu- larly strong impression on him. The fact is that the people of Alabama are friendly to capital in general they welcome it, and any corporation that developes and uabuilds on a scale of such magnitude as the United States Steel is doing here naturally anouses enthusiasm on all sides. Only radical politicians in Alabama ever showed a disposition to discriminate against foreign corporations and harrass large capital; and happily the day of rad icalism in this part of the country is gone.
 The United States Steels policy is broad, liberal and tusiness-like. and so long as the corporation continues to operate and expand on its present lines it will not fail to receive the cordial cooperation of the people of Alabama.

What Insurgency Means

Ray Stannard Baker explains in the March number of the American Nigga zine what insurgency means alike in the west and in the east for the progressives in the cast are beginning to make them selves felt. Insurgency everywhere covers and includes three questions, as follow:
 1. The regulation of corporations and the effort to prevent political domination by moneyed interests.
 Q Taxation; the effort to make corpo- rations and moneyed interests bear their honest share of the taxes
 g. The change of political machinery to meet the conditions of new age, the eff fort to secure direct primaries. direct leg isation. direct vote for United States sen ators. new charters for cities, and so on.
 MT Baker considers Governor Hughes an insurgent, and he shows that insur geney reduced the republican plurality in Massachusetts last year to 9Ooo. It was 6OOOo the year before Three eastern con gressmen have become insurgents, and the discontent in that party is spreading in the east. although not as rapidly as in the west.
 The reactionary leaders are still in the saddle in the east but they are dread fully scared in New York state, which may as last hope be handed over to MT Roosevelt.
 But insurgencys home is in the middle west, and it's cause will be lost or won in this falls elections The movement in the east will not be advanced far enough to carry elections, although it will be felt in New York and possibly in New Jer- sey when elections are held in November.

William Howard Taft'S First Year

In a few days the first year of the Taft administration will be ended, and so far as his cabinet is concerned it will stand al the end of that year negative quan- tity. NA a member of it has won the popular heart or signally served the coun- try. One member of it, MT. Ballinger, is under investigation, and another one has bIundered at every forward step-Mr. Knox. No one has much confidence in MT. Wickersham, and the other members of the cabinet are rarely heard from They have disappeared from public view. If there are any Dig men in the cab fnet they have not made good" in the first year of their service. There are. however, three more years to come, and possibly some of them may do better.
 But the chief trouble of this admnistra- ton lies still deeper than mere ineffi- ciency. It is of a moral nature. MT, Taft himself sought votes on the promise that the Dingley tariff should be revised down. ward. He secured the needed votes, but his promise, many times repeated on the stump, was not kept or even considered by the republican leaders.
 And yet MT. Taft had the hardihood to declare at winons, and more recently in New York. that the present tariff is ''the best customs law that has ever been passed" The people know better. The cost of living is constantly advancing ou is stationary and 25 per cent lower on the other side of the line. The voters are moi to be deceived. High prices have betrayed the scheme of the interests who devised the Aldrich tariff. It is simply scheme to loot the many for the benefit of tn, few, and the punishment of the men wh' passed it and of MT. Taft, who commend it and endeavors to support it with fig ures that have been exposed many times b sure to follow.
 This is why the return of The Man iron Elba is looked forward to with deep inter est. and his declarations concerning tn tariff will be eagerly anticipated
