HIGH COST Or LIVING IS WOI Id
Wide.

Increased cost of living is a COM
plant that is by no means confined to
the United States. The trouble is ep-
idemic, and found in the least pros
porous and the most remote parts of
the world.
We in Hawaii think OF Japan and
China as among the nations of the
earth where living is cheapest, and
least liable to increase. Human life
there is cheap, dirt cheap, and n days
labor can be had for a song. But the
cost of living is steadily advancing
in those countries. Some of our own
japanese residents who felt that they
had saved up a competency for the
remainder of their lives, have re-
turned to their home country only to
find that living costs more than It did
in the days when they left home TO
make their fortunes, and they are not
so wealthy as they supposed.
Secretary James l.. Barton of the
American Board of Missions was in
terviewed recently and attested to the
facts of living's high cost throughout
the length and breadth of the lands
where the foreign missionaries oper-
ate.
Mr.. Barton called attention to a
letter just received from Madura,
South India, stating that in the past
five years prices of building material
and labor have increased forty per
cent and the prices of all food stuffs
in that region advanced during the
same period twenty per cent. Speak
ing of other countries, Mr.. Barton
said: Another letter from Ceylon
compares the present cost of articles
in constant use in the home with
their cost ten years ago, showing an
teen per cent. This letter has come
from city in the interior of Asia
Minor, in Turkey, and reports that
wages, wheat, the common staple of
food and vegetables have increased
in value more than twenty per cent.
in six years.
"Still another letter from Koordis-
tan, in the far east of Turkey next
the Persian border, tells the same
story. These three communications
are from widely-separated regions in
China, speaking of the distress caused
the poor there through the rise in
prices since 1900, while the changes

K. w. Johnson, a Bartender, was Killed by Jake Miller, Also a Bartender, Last
 Tuesday

Robert w. Johnson, bartender for the Wigwam saloon, was shot and killed at noon Tue sday at Winslow by lake Miller, a bar tender for the Mission saloon.
 Miller was in the Wigwam buy- ing drinks and becoming abusive, was ordered out by Johnson. He refused to vacate the premises and Johnson came from behind the bar to quiet him. Miller quickly drew a gun, showed it against Johnson's breast and fired. The bullet entered just below the heart and Johnson died in ten minutes, without speaking or re- gaining consciousness.
 Miller was hurriedly arrested and placed in jail. There were numerous threats of lynching, but the officers quieted the crowds that gathered about the saloons and streets and now have the matter well in hand and anticipate no trouble.
 An inquest was held over the body Tuesday evening, the Jury rendering a verdict to the effect that Johnson met his death at the hands of Miller.
 This shooting is the second fatal occurrence of the kind with in the last few months.

 T found 1t was because the pies were made with Cottolene; and as I am a great lover of pie. began using Cot toiene. and have never had bit of lard in the house since that time. I now enjoy my pie, as 1t does not give heartburn as formerly"

AN AWAKENING
Throughout the Nation ther

Throughout the Nation there is
a mighty demand
That the secret use of millions
upon millions OF campaign funds
by the special interests shall be
terminated;
That the public officials and
party officers be directly selected
by the registered voters, the use
of money to be strictly limited, as
in Oregon;
That the procedure in the Nat
ional House shall be thoroughly
revised and that United States
Senators shall be directly selected
by the voters; and
Wherever the direct primary is
installed there is needed n cheap
and effective mechanism whereby
the candidates can communicate
with every registered voter in the
State-the Oregon system.
In the West and Middle West
there is an overwhelming demand
for direct-vote system for public
questions-the Initiative, the Ref
erendum-and that all public Off
cials shall be subject to Recall.
In municipal affairs the Des
Moines plan of city government,
which includes the Initiative, the
Referendum and the Recall, is
sweeping the country.
The "insurgent" republicans are
pushing Senator Bourne's speech
in which is described the Oregon
system of People's-RuIe govern
ment. Nearly half million
copies have been printed. And
Hon. Clifford Pinchot's speech for
the restoration of popular govern
ment is bearing fruit.

Wisconsin, taxes were equalized,
and that equalization resulted in
increasing the taxes paid by rail
roads in Wisconsin more than
100000 per year. A statewide
primary election law was also Sc
cured, forever destroying the power
of the political boss. Regulation
OF railroads was accomplished,
giving to Wisconsin the best rail-
road law and the best railroad
commission in the country. AS
result of this legislation, rates
have been reduced in Wisconsin,
thereby saving millions of dollars
annually to its citizens. At the
same time no injustice has been
done the railroad or any other in
dustry.
Only when results had made
Wisconsin the model state that
she is now recognized to be, did
he leave the work there to take it
up and carry it in the nation. Nor
has he swerved from the difficult
course in the national field.

oring to rally all republicans to

him, is exalting patriotism and

SENATOR LA TOILETTE

Cru m. L8 FOleCte. he was at
once recognized as man of un-
usual ability, but soon lost the
favor of some of the political lead
ers of that day because of his Pc
culiar ideas that representative
in Congress should represent the
people, and that as such represen-
tative it was his duty to expose
wrong in Legislation and seek only
to serve the public. In the cam
paign of 1880 he was defeated for
re. election. In the early nineties
he was ostracised by the republi-
can leaders of Wisconsin because
he had refused u bride. Like all
young men at that time, he looked
up to and respected the leaders of
his party, but his experience in
Congress, together with their con-
demnation of him for refusing to
be bribed, opened his eyes to the
fact that political leaders in Wis
consin used their positions for the
purpose of public plumber, and
that betrayal of the people was
the rule. Realizing for the first
time to the full extent the dangers
confronting the people from these
conditions-dangers greater than
any that war could bring, he de-
termined to devote his life to the
restoration of representative gov
and became the pioneer
in that great struggle, now nation
wide in its scope, upon the issue
of which depends the perpetuity
of true democracy in America.
Here was man who measured
up to all the standards of real lead
ership, who was destined to be-
come one of the most important
factors in the national struggle for
representative government.
For twenty years the railroads,
through few politicians, had
governed Wisconsin. Representa-
tive government was nothing but a
name. The control of legislation
by public-service corporations was
complete. 1t mattered not whether
the Republican or the Democratic
party was in power. Both served
the same masters, the corporate
interests OF the state.
But La Toilette, in 1894, sup
porting a clean and capable candi-
date for governor, deiied the bosses
and rings, and went into the cam
paign upon the issue that the only
sovereign power in Wisconsin was
the people, and that organized
wealth must submit to the enact
ment of laws for the benefit of all.
Though defeated in that campaign,
he treated it only rs a preliminary
skirmish. He Immediately COM
menced the next campaign, and
later on the demand of the people
became n candidate for governor in
1886. Again he was defeated. 1t
is n matter Of common knowledge
in Wisconsin that money alone &C.
cured his defeat. Again defeated
in 1898, LaFollette still kept on
fighting and by 1900 the state was
80 thoroughly aroused that he was
elected by an overwhelming ma
jority. But the machine was not
dead. 1t relinquishcd the COVER
norship but secured the lcgisla-
ture, and its legislature defeated
all of the reforms for which La
Toilette had fought and which
had been promised by tho repub-
lican party in it's platform. But
LaFollette never stopped fighting.
The contest was waged with in
tense bitterness. With unlimited

Joseph Smith had when a boy IA years

wax strong in a knowledge of the faith.
Joseph Smith was not taught the
principles Of the gospel In colleges and
universities but was instructed direct
from the Father In heaven. have
often wished that the young people OF
this generation had a knowledge and
preparation similar to that Of Joseph
smith, God prepared the prophet for
this work, hence no wonder we gather
here year after year to listen to the
words of those called of God to speak
unto us.
