The Editors ) Paradise

Frederick G. Boyer, a well-knoWn
Cleveland editor. told at a recent
press banquet a newspaper story.
"A Medina editor died." he said,
and was. Of course, directed to as
cend to the Abode Of the Just. But
during the ascent the editors
Journalistic curiosity asserted itself
and he said:
I" Is it permitted for one to have
a look at-er the other place.?
:" Certainly was the gracious re-
ply, and accordingly a descent to
the other place was made. Here
the editor found much to interest
him. He scurried about and was
soon lost to view.
His angelic escort got worried at
last and began systematic search
for his charge. He found him at
last seated before d furnace, fam
ming himself and gazing at the peo-
pie IN the fire. On the door Of the
furnace was plate. saying, 'Delin-
quent Subscribers.

editor, we must be going.

Starts Movement Toward Many Activities
Which VIII Result in Much Good.

business men. Il. J. Berry started IL
ball rolling by stating that he would
donate $100, and J. J. stipek also
promised a like amount if the lot sale
at the new town is successful.
Mr.. Harlow was called upon and
made most interesting talk. He COM
mended the permanent secretaryship
idea and said that it had been an en-
tire success in all other places he had
known Of. He also took occasion to
highly commend the local papers for
their boosting propaganda and
thought it the most valuable advertis-
ing possible to secure The speaker
also offered gratuitously 1000 buttons
for the Fourth Of July celebration. At
the conclusion of his address, the sec
retary was instructed to arrange for
running an ad in each Of the local pa
pers in the immediate future.
Some 1,50O Of the club pamphlets
have already been distributed and
large number furnished to the North
ern Pacific advertising department.
The humming Of the boosting has be-
bun to reverbrate all along the line.
Before adjournment the following
resolution was adopted:
: tResolved that we, the Glendive
Commercial Club, condemn the action
of B. R. Dick Won Tranitz and the
Glendive Land Company, who have ia
ken advantage of the advertising and
1abors of Mr.. J. j. Stipek by plating
the homestead Of Won Tranitz and sell
ing the same as Of and part Of the
townsite Of Stipek. That the action Of
these parties in the premises is an at
tempt to take undue advantage of one
of our citizens, who has employed his
time and money in creating this town
site of Stipek. The act of Won Tran
itz and the Glendive Land Company
merits our opposition and censure. =

ADMINISTRATION
IN QUANDARY
Important Bills VIII Soon Be Forced into
Struggle for Life or Death.

Washington, May 1.-Administra
tlon leaders in congress are beginning
to feel a good deal Of concern over the
chances of putting through the several
measures on which President Taft has
set his heart. Hot weather has al
ready settled on the city and sitting
days are sure to create general desire
among members of congress to get
away. Many who have hard political
battles in prospect now are making
their plans to leave.
Nearly all the Taft bills s..e sus-
pended by more or lass uncertain
threads. The railroad bill, which is
the pending business in both branches,
is not out Of danger.
The amendments already adopted in
the senate and house will produce
measures SO widely different that har-
moay in conference threatens to be
utterly out of the question.
The house has adopted an amend
ment making provision for ascertain
ing the physical valuation Of railroads
and this is sure to meet with opposi-
ton in the senate. It is said also that
on the final vote the house is likely to
strike out the provision for the erea-
tion Of a commerce court, a feature
that is certain to be retained by the
senate. Indications point to the adop-
tion Of amendments for the making of
tariff agreements which will be at var
lance.

meeting Of the GIendive Com
.r.sl Club was held on Tuesday ev-
.,,r with probably fifty members
..,yistors in attendance. Enthusi-
sas rife and much work Of genn-
=. importance to the city and county
rss transacted.
I,bn T. Burns, secretary Of the
NJ Farming Congress, had sent in
communication, which was read by
President Hagan. Mr.. Burns request
Il the appointment of local COM
m;ttpe in Glendive to take general
charge of the matter Of arranging for
snitable exhibit at Spokane this
gaar; also raise funds for a cup or
tropby to be given by this county. Mr..
Hagan had given Mr.. Burns assur-
,nce that the club would take 100
eopes regularly of the journal issued
BY the congress and his action was
unanimously endorsed.
Glendive will no doubt have q first
class Fourth of July celebration this
year, as the subject was brought up
and committee appointed to take
charge Of the arrangements, namely,
Harry Dion, Harry Burk, Bert John
m, Guy Lowe and Dave Rivenes.
When the matter of the secretary
sHp was brought up, it was sugges-
ahat Mr.. Haskell should have some
cpnpaation for his valuable services
todaP The latter declined, however,
dstated that his services had been
freely donated up to the present, but
ttat his time would be too limited in
tbetature. He suggested the appoint
nent Of an experienced man who could
give his entire time to the affairs of
the club, at salary ranging from
$1,000 to $1,000. D. R. Mead, Henry
Dion and G. D. Hollecker were ap-
pointed as committee to begin an
active solicitation of funds from the

By the time the bill reaches confe-
renee President Taft will have return
ed TO Washington and it is hoped he
may bring the conference together.
Chairman Mann Of the house com
mittee and Chairman Elkins of the
senate committee both hope to bring
the bills to their final votes this week.
That the administration senators
will put the bill through in about the
form in which it now appears on the
calendar 5 indicated by the vote last
week on the Cummins amendment re-
lating to tariff agreements.
Supporters of the long and short
haul amendment which was introduced
by Senator Dixon claim they have
votes enough to incorporate it in the
bill.
What measure will be taken up in
the senate after the vote on the rail-
road bill is a matter of speculation.
The administration senators want to
bring up the bill giving to the presi-
dent unlimited authority to withdraw
public lands for conservation purposes,
but democratic senators under the lead
of Mr.. Bailey will insist that the
statehood bill be considered.
In the house there IS still some de-
mand that the postal savings bank
bill will be taken up, but it is still in
committee and an order Of a majority
OF the house may be necessary to dis
lodge it.

EVILS OF SPECULATION
VIGOROUSLY ROASTED
Congressman Scott of Kansas
Points Out Evil Work of
Stock ManipuIatOrs.
~ Leased Wire to The Tribune.

BY Leased Wire to The Tribune.
NEW YORK, March 26,-Congress'
man Charles F. Scott Of Kansas, ad.
dressing the Republican club on the ad'
vantages and evils of the speculative
exchanges, made the startling state
ment that the estimated cost to the
public Of these exchanges is $1S0,000,-
900 per year.
GA very large proportion of this
annual toll Of $1S0,O00,o0o, said he,
"must be charged up to the purely
speculative end of the business of the
exchanges. That is a good deal of
money. What does the public get for
it? Does it get as much as it would if
this sum were invested every year IN
railroads, or mines, or factories, or
farms7 Does it develop any of the na-
tion's resources7 Does it employ any
Of the nation g labor? Does it add
anything to the nations food supply 7
Does it contribute anything to the sum
total Of the nation S prosperity or hap
pinessl ] think it does not do any
of these things. L am simply asking
you if it does.''
AS to the methods of business in the
exchanges, Mr., Scott said;
81 have heard that men sell them
selves on these exchanges and buy from
themselves in order to crea, an impress
sion of great activity on the part of
some security in the hope of deceiving
someone into paying a price which is
above the value of the thing sold. Do
YOU suppose that is true7 / have heard
that men sometimes use the system in
vogue in your exchanges to buy all of
a given commodity that is offered, and
then deliberately hold it off the market
although it may be n necessity of life,
in order to force men to pay a higher
price than it is worth, -
In closing his remarks, Mr.. Scott
said:
off the supply Of lambs should cease
the bulls and bears would have to go
out Of business - and he declared that
"the ethical evils Of the speculative ex-
eXhanges will be eliminated or the
speculative exchanges will 60"

The burglary was discovered by Mrs.

safe, The rooms were In their usual
state. and when Mrs. Shores entered the
house for the same purpose, Saturday
afternoon, she discovered that IL had

All the bed rooms upstairs had been
turned topsy- -turYy by the burglars who
had searched every nook and Granny.
The burglary was Immediately reported
to the police by Mrs Shores and plain

the evidence found in the rooms the po-
