The Lions Shdre-A Fable.

The following fable is respect
fully referred to the politicians of
this state-especially those OF the
republican breed:
A lion once went hunting with
a wolf, a jackal and a fox. They
hunted till at last they surprised a
stag and soon killed it. Then came
the question how to share the spoil.
Quarter this stag roared the lion.
The other animals having skinned
it and cut it into four parts, the
lion took his stand by the carcass
and spoke thus:
F." The first part is mine, because
| am king of beasts; the second
portion falls to me in my capacity
as arbitrator; the third part be-
longs to me for my share in the
chase; the fourth quarter-well, as
for that, | dare anyone to lay his
paw upon it.
AS the animals skunk away the
fox muttered:
You may share the labors OF
the great, but not the spolls.

The People Being Robbed.

The government caught the
sugar trust beating it out OF rev.
enue amounting to hundreds OF
thousands Of dollars annually and
forced it to reimburse the govern
ment in part for the sum d1shon-
estly taken by collision with dis
honest federal officials. And now
the trust in order to recoup, has
advanced the price of sugar, an
absolute necessity in every family,
to 7112 cents per pound which costs
the consumers from 812 to 9 cents
per pound, by which the trust is
robbing the consumers to the ex-
tent of $500, 900 per day over a
legitimate profit and nothing is be-
ing done to protect the people
against such criminal rapaclty.
When congress convenes in De-
cember, the first thing it should
do, is to place sugar on the tree
list and pass a law making it a
criminal offense punishable by a
long term in prison for each and
every man who shall in any way,
be interested in a trust by which
the prices of the necessities are
manipulated SO as to rob the
people, be it local or general II
character. If the government vii
send few of the big rogues to prl
son for long terms, it would have
decided tendency to break up the
trusts and all combinations in re
straint of legitimate trade.

Justice Daniels Speedy Decisions

The writer is inclined to believe,
that there is merit in the bill intro
duced by Senator Bourne, which
provides rules for speedy and final
decisions of questions concerning
the con stitutionality of national or
state laws and the constitutional
provision, and for the interpreta-
ton and construction, and that in
all cases begun in the inferior fed
eral courts, the questions involved
shall be certified to the supreme
court for a decision before a trial is
held In the lower court, but think
unanimous decision of the court
would have a tendency to prolong
the case and defeat the remedy
sought. A majority decision of
the court would be better, the same
as at the present time.

THOUGHTS BY THE WAY.

Uncle Joe Cannon makes an
nouncement of the fact that he will
be a congressional candidate to
succeed himself and no doubt will
be renominated and reelected, for
he has the habit of holding office,
especially that of congressman, is
popular at home and however much
we may disagree with him on ma
tional issue, all will admit that he
is frank and outspoken and there
is no guile in him-he is not a
demagogue, talking one thing and
doing the opposite as a representa-
tive. He IS politically honest at
least, which cannot be said of
many who have opposed him.

The Come Back" of the
Times.
Editor of the Leader:

Editor of the Leader:
Financially, it may be good policy for
a paper to side with the party in power
| Now for years past, the administration
of our city affairs has largely been in
the hands of few of the saloonkeepers
of our CITY, And furthermore, this con-
dition of affairs prevails today. Hence
the Times is wise as acting as the mouth
piece of the liquor interests-it pays.
Nor is the Times to be blamed for this;
its editor has perfect right to cham
pion whatever cause he wishes But
the wrong-doifrg lies in this, that while
working tooth and nail for the brewery
and saloon, he pretends he is using his
influence only for the general good of
the community. Very few are deceived
by the present attitude of the Times to-
ward the question of the II o'clock or
dinance. Not bona fide reason can
be brought forward by any one why the
saloons Of this city should not close
their doors before midnight. The Times
has been silent wisely silent the
past three weeks on the question of sa-
loon regulation; but perhaps feeling
sufficiently convaleacent from the lam
basting it received, it plucked up cour-
age last Saturday to resume its old bull
doing tactics. The chief of these are,
misrepresentation of facts, damning
those who differ from it, utter lack of
logic and the imputing of false motives
to those who are raising their voices for
decency and morality in civic affairs.
Let the Times take up the cudgel for
the element of its choice, but let it fight
under the flag of those whose cause ii
espouses.
The men who are striving to better
existing conditions are not prohibition
cranks, neither are they temperance re-
formers. The Times is knowingly mis-
representing facts when it calls them
such. To cover the real question at is
sue, which is decent, sane regulation,
it raises the cry of Prohibition and then
dissertation on Maine And decent, sane
regulation is, according to the Times,
going to result in '1awlessness, drunk
ennesss and all the attending ills teat
come from futile attempt to curb per-
sonal liberty. Such logic! Such rot!
The Times asserts that saloon keepers
who do not live up to the law can be
prosecuted and have their licenses re-
voked. Prosecuted by whom, pray?
Who is going to revoke their licenses?
Who is running the town, anyway?
Again says the Times, eff there is any
violation Of the law, the people in a
community have it in their power to
bring about betterment of conditions. "
They have, eh? Some people are now
trying hard to better conditions in spite
LOT conditions, in spite of the Times and
some of the saloon keepers. The Times
pretends that majority Of the citizens
are satisfied with existing conditions.
| OF course, the Times knows this is not
true, but it feigns ignorance in order to
have at least some grounds on which to
have its opposition to regulation. Pub
lie sentiment is certainly in favor of
closing saloons at II o'clock and if it
were possible to take vote on the
question, the result would dissipate
whatever doubt, real or imaginary, may

exist in the minds of some few indivi-

exist in the minds of some few indivi-
duals.
The Times game is played out, the
bluff no longer works. It has lost its
influence to mould public opinion by its
unreasonable advocacy of brewery and
saloon interests. 1t is injuring those
whom it is endeavoring to defend, be-
cause it is trying to advocate what is
detrimental to the moral uplift and well
fare OF the city. 1t has been particu-
unfortunate of late in its utterances.
The Liquor Dealers Association, for
their own good, ought to tell the Times
to keep quiet. Perhaps they have.
Sincerely,
