What's in McClure's.

McClure's Magazine for March
contains a remarkably dramatic
story of the Cherry mine disas-
ter by Edith Wyatt. Few such
stirring stories of heroism and
self sacrifice have been written.
Burton J. Hendrick describes the
latest experiments with the new
drug, stovaine; Xavier Paoli, who
formerly looked after foreign
sovereigns sojourning in France,
contributes his "reminiscences of
the Shah of Persia, and l. M. Ru-
binow and Daniel Durant offer a
new solution for the servant pro-
blem. Among the short stories
is "The Joint in the Harness." a
marvellous story of the romance
and wonder of aerial warfare,
with full page pictures by Andre
Castaigne. The number also con-
tains Mary the Peach" by Wi

the increased cost of living has
at last been appointed in the Sen
ate by the vice president of the
United States. Senator Lodge
of Massachusetts is chairman.
Senators Gallinger, Simmonds,
Crawford, Smoot and McCumber
are members of the committee.
It will be remembered that there
was a dispute a week or two ago
between Senator Elkins of West
Virginia and Lodge of Massa-
chusetts with reference to lead
ership in this investigation. Re-
membering this. Vice President
Sherman announced that in ac-
cordapce with custom, he had
offered the craftsmanship to Sen
ator Elkins, the author of the
resolution under which the in
quiry is to be conducted, but that
Senator Elkins, having charge of
the Interstate Commerce bill,
would be unable to serve as chair
man of this committee. 1t had
been expected that open hear
ings would be held by the COM
mittee, but Chairman Lodge, it
is understood, does not favor this
plan and is of opinion that bet
ter work can be done by calling
in experts from the various ex-
ecutive departments who are
supposed to have special knowl-
edge of the many subjects to be
probed. Senator Lodge has pro-
missed that the investigation will
be thorough and cover fully the
wide scope provided for the res
olution. He said also that if the
tariff is responsible for the in
creased cost of the necessaries of
life, the committee would bring
out all the facts. Those who pay
the market bills doubtless want
to know the facts, but would
have more faith in the investiga-
ton if Senator Cummins Of Iowa
or LaFollette and other insurgent
senators had been appointed on
the committee. The names on
the committee as appointed do
not inspire fullest confidence
that the question of high prices
will be probed to the bottom.

Another important bill under
consideration relates to a federal
license for automobiles. It was
stated by representatives of the
American Automobile Associa-
ton that there are at the pres
ent time 45O, 900 of these vehicles
in the United States, that there
are orders booked with the vari-
GUS manufacturing and sales
companies for 25O,OOO more.
This means that there will be
700, 600, motor vehicles travel
ling throughout the country and
across state lines before the
end of the year. The different
states have different laws and
regulations with reference to au-
;t0mobiles and the users of the
machines who wish to go from
one end of the country to the
other find it quite embarrassing
to get a new license at every
crossing of state lines, to say
nothing Of knowing or remem'
bering, the diverse laws and reg.
ulations of the different states
with reference to speed and 9th
er road conditions and restric'
tiOns. A license from the gen
eral government with registra
ton at the Agricultural Depart
ment, or the Department of Com
merce and Labor at Washington
will make it necessary to hav
only one placard number on tn
card, and as it will be seen, a S
license fee for every car wi
raise a considerable sum s., 500,
600. can be devoted to buildin
good roads.

Booming Col. Roosevelt.
BYLEo.

President Theodore Roosevelt are
beginning to agitate the question
of nominating him for the 1912
campaign. The gentleman him.
self is in the wilds of Africa
hunting wild beasts and is not
responsible for what his friends
are doing at home. We hardly
think that the ex-president de-
sires another term in the presi-
dency. There is nothing in it
for him. He. has enjoyed it to
his satisfaction. 1t would be a
shame to force the Office upon
him again. Two terms of the
presidency are enough for any
man. A new age demands new
men in Office. We presume that
e
as soon as Col. Roosevelt comes
back home he will at once put a
quietus on the agitation to give
him a third term.
But if by some unaccountable
error of judgment he will permit
himself to be dragged into seek
ing the Office of chief magistrate
of the Republic in 1912 his de-
feat will surely follow. The A
merican people have a warm
place in their hearts for Colonel
Roosevelt, but they would rather
see some one else running for
the presidency in 1912.
Gen. U. S. Grant was as popu-
lar a man as Col. Roosevelt. He
served two terms in the presi-
dency, but when his fool friends
tried to nominate him for third
term failure followed. The Re-
publican party had no desire to
see any man, not even the great
Union general, perpetuated in
the chief magistracy. It would
be the same with Col. Roosevelt
in 1912 if he will permit himself
to be named at the head of the
Republican ticket.
We have no need of following
the example of Mexico. Diaz is
perpetual president down there.
May as well be an emperor. Per-
haps the lack of suitable men
works in favor of the Mexican
president. There is no lack Of
nueno of suitable traits for the pre-
sidency in the U. S. There are
hundreds of them who would
make as efficient chief magis-
trates as the great African hunt
er.

Compare the Figures

So much has been said about the cost of job printing in
Spokane that nearly everyone outside of those engaged in
the business honestly believes that Spokane printers
charge unreasonable prices for the product of their shops
But comparison of Spokane prices of the present time
with those charged by Chicago printers during the hard
times and panic of 1898 shows that not receiving
as much for product and labor the master printers
of Chicago did during the last Cleveland administration
Figures in possession show that work in Chicago in
1898 cost money than the class of printing costs
today in Spokane, to-wit Chicago st-500 Autograph
stock certificates, printed, numbered and bound $2275.
Same job in Spokane today, $3.50. In Chicago during
the years of adversely, 3M white 6R envelopes 3M.

cost $685. and in Spokane today you get the quantity
