Hay May Go to $50.

Milwaukee Sentinel, July 23rd No
longer will tbs auto tourist incite the
envy of the pedestrian. To show real
class you must go back to old ''dobbin. I"
And not everybody can afford to own a
'dobbin. To be the proud possessor
of string of ponies will be the height
Of affiuence.
That horses are to succeed fthe i'll
smelling auto as the plaything of the
rich is a simple deduction. Horses eat
hay. Hay prices are now the highest
in ten years and indications are that
before the winter is over all previous
records will be broken.
Choice timothy hay sold for $26 ton
in Milwaukee on Saturday and the adj
vance is scarcely under way. All sorts
of fancy prices are predicted by hay
dealers and farmers. One Wisconsin
farmer is out with the statement that
hay will go to $50 ton. He is proba-
bly, basing his estimate on the shortage
in his own immediate vicinity. How
ever, $40 hay is freely predicted.
There seems little doubt that at least
$50 ton will be the prevailing price.
A continued shortage in the crop is
responsible for the record price in the
hay market. Last years crop was
short and this year the prospects are
even worse.

"Be it enacted. etc, That no higher
postage rates shall be charged for the
transmission of mail entirely within the
United States than is charged for the
transmission of mail partly without the
United States" says a little bill re-
Gently introduced by Senator Bourne
The Senator explained; Within the
United States, the rate of postage on
fourth-cass matter is sixteen cents a
pound, with limit of four pounds to a
package: but the United States is par
ty to a treaty under which residents of
twenty-nine foreign countries may
send four-class matter through the
United States mails at twelve cents a
pound with limit OF eleven pounds
In other words. man may send an
eleven-pound package from San Fran
cisco to Rome at twelve cents a pound;
but if he wishes to send the same arti-
Giles to New York he must divide them
into packages not exceeding four
pounds in weight and pay sixteen cents
a pound
The difference is simply this: The

Lorimer's friend Hines, the lumber
trust lobbyist, has been discredted by
at least nine witnesses summoned by
the senate committee that is investi-
eating the election Of Lorimer to the
senate. Governor Deneen of Illinois is
the last to testify that Hines swore to
falsehoods
That Hines boasted that 1--WE put
Lorimer over at Springfield, that he
openly spoke of the expenditure of
SlOO, 600 for that purpose; that he so
dictated contributions of $4,000 each
from big interests in Chicago TO REIN
burse the $4,000 fund said TO have
been spent in Lorimer's interest; that
he used without authority the name Of
President Taft as urging Lorimers
election, and that on the stand he mis-
represented conversations held with
Governor Deneen and others, has time
and again been testified under oath.
Hines one defense was that the other
witness lied.
To accept Hines word in any one of
a dozen particulars it is necessary TO
assume in the Lorimer investigation
that he alone told the truth and that
nearly a dozen other witnesses swore
falsely As Senator Kenyon Of Iowa
remarked earlier in the proceedings Of
the committee, some one should be
tried for perjury

 There is no place in the universe for the idler; everything was planned and fitted for the dead-in- earnest worker. The best evil dence that the idler is out of place everywhere is that he fits nowhere. Nature begins to take away from him what he has because he does not use 1t.
 What pitiable apologies of real men and women are found among the idle elassesl These people have scarcely any initiative and practically no executive ability. and their minds are fiabby from lack of exercise.

THE PENALTY or IDLfNtSS.

Idle people do not realize the penalty they pay for the violation of one of the fundamental laws of their being. They ignore the fact that action is the very law of growth, that idleness weakens the brain-power; that they can retain only what they constantly use.
 Labor is imperative for ones mental health and integrity. A Musician can not hold his skill without constant practice. We cannot retain our mental powers without their healthful exercise.
 Every human being should con tribute his part to the progress of the world. The penalty for those who shirk responsibility is the loss of power; a penalty as real as to be deprived of ones liberty; as to be confined in penitentiary.
 The idle mind loses it's grip. It becomes less and less resourceful. The inventive power is lessened and the power of concentration weakened until it is difficult for the victim to focus his mind upon any thing. All the mental processes are so weakened that he finds him self doing little. mediocre things instead of the strong. vigorous things accomplished during active career.
 There is nothing upon which a man brides himself so much as his atility to do things. When he shuts down his mental machinery he feels conscious of loss of pow CT. just as he would during the de- velopment of paresis.
 One reason why the retired mln is usually unhappy and dis contented is because of his con- sciousness of deterioration. of a cessation of vigorous activity; he has growing sense of inferior thinking and production. And when a ceases to do. things. he soon looses his confidence that he
