ment should really be permitted
to live in well earned retirement
on a pension. We have seen it
every time the Democrats got
busy with tariff tinkering, and it
seems they can think up nothing
stronger to shoulder the effects
that always follow their war up
on the tariff; and, really, if the
Republican laws now in force
are responsible for the slump"
in prices, we do not see the nee
essity of any Democratic tariff
reform legislation, for it was
with the positive purpose of ac-
complishing the same purpose
that the Democratic attack upon
Republican tariff was promulgat-
ed. 1t looks like the Indepen-
dent has knocked out the under
pinning from it's support of the
Democratic tariff program.

When you consider that your
property is only assessed at one
third of its value, you can see
that the probable cost to you will
be very small, while the limit of
the possible cost is not burden
some at ALL A man worth S25,-
600 will not have to pay more
than $1.60 capitol tax per year,
while the man whose assessment
foots up $1,000 is only out 20
cents per year, the price of
couple of good cigars.
What about the benefits? The
new capitol provides rooms for
the State offices; a meeting place
for the Legislature, safe fire
proof vaults for the records of
the State; and a building that is
your capitol home in which you
have an interest and to which
you can point with patriotic
pride. The adoption of the
proposition by large two-thirds
would advertise the
State most favorably abroad,
stamp US as live, progressive
people, attract the attention of
home seekers and give a general
to every business inter-
est.
The cost is small, the benefits
are great. It's a wise invest
ment; lend your influence to the
end that it may be made August

When the Horse Grows Old.

Some horses never seem to
grow old, but are able to per-
form much work up to the age of
twenty-five years, declares a
writer in the American Cultiva-
tor. With proper care and treat
ment the old horse is able to
stand great deal of work and
for light work is worth just as
much as a much younger animal.
If offered for sale, of course the
old horse will not bring a very
large price.
But if horses are to be SER
viceable until a good old age they
must receive the very best of
care and treatment at all times.
They must not be neglected at
any time, whether working or
idle.
The old horse does not always
get proper attention in regard to
feed. He cannot masticate some
kind of food, especially corn.
thoroughly, nor can he eat his
ration in as short a time as can
young horse whose teeth are
sound. So, unless some ground
grain is provided for him and he
is given sufficient time to eat his
meals when being worked, he
will fail to get the full benefit of
his food and in a short time will
begin to lose flesh and strength.
When the horse begins to
grow old give him just as good
care as you did when he was
young, and he will more than pay
for his feed and care by the work
which he can perform.

Things To Forget.

If you would increase your
happiness and prolong your life,
forget your neighbours faults.
Forget the temptations. Forget
the fault finding and give little
thought to the cause which pro-
voked it. Forget the peculiari-
ties of your friends, and only re-
member the good points which
make you fond of them. Forget
all personal quarrels Or stories
you may have heard by accident
and which, if repeated, would
seem a thousand times worse
than they are.
Blot out as far as possible all
the disagreeableness of life; they
will come but they will grow
larger when you remember
them, and the constant thought
of acts of meanness, Or, worse,
still, malice, will only tend to
make you more familiar with
them.
Obliterate everything disagree
able from yesterday; start out
with a clean sheet for today and
write upon it, for sweet memor-
les sake, only those things which
are lovely and lovable.-Ex.

of the hay, of course-there
would be enough meat and vege
tables to feed several families
for a week. It is rather start
ling to observe that the mere tip
to the cab driver represents fif-
teen cabbages. And if Mr.. Nc
Cumber had been required to
hand over this tip in produce no
doubt he would have hesitated a
little in his extravaganza.
Very few of the people who
spend day in New York pay
such prices as are recorded in
the McCumber experiment. Yet
no one would think of going to
that city without yielding some
thing to the exactions of vorac-
iOus servitors. This unnecessary
element of expense is one of the
most important phases of the
cost of living in city hotel and
life. American ex-
travagance is proverbial. Al
most every family in this coun-
try spends more than the family
income justifies. If these ex-
travagances could be reduced to

We used the phrase, the worn
out theory of private property
in these columns last week, its
application, however, was not in.
tended in a general sense, for it
must still be a long time and re-
quire great change of public
opinion before private ownership
will give place to collective own
ership generally. The applica-
ton was made in the discussion
of the trust problem, and in this
connection the theory Of private
ownership has worn itself down
to so blunt point that it has
ceased to penetrate effectively in
the attempt to ward off the mar
shalling hosts of social progress
Collective ownership of the high
ly organized public utilities does
not imply their unrequited con-
fiscation from private ownership.
The Standard Oil Company is
just now the most conspicuous of
these highly organized industries
supplying a commodity of gener-
al utility, and affords US the best
example. The figures of this
company's capitalization are not
at hand, but the fact is well
known that it's profits permit it
to pay annual dividends ranging
from 40 to 80 per cent on it's en-
tire stock issue. This means
practically that every two years
the consumers are paying
enough for their oil above the
cost of production and distribu
ton to purchase the entire stock
issue of the Standard Oil Co. at
par, water and all. The govern
ment could absorb the oil busi-
ness under collective ownership
and without raising the price of
oil a single cent repay the stock
holders the par value Of their
holdings in two years, and there
after reduce the price of oil to the
consumer to the point of actual
cost of production. Of course
the enormous profits of the
Standard has placed the value of
it's shares at several times their
par value, but this value is ficti-
tious and speculative, and is bas-
ed upon nothing more tangible
than the power of monopoly
held by the company to sustain
this speculative value by it's prof
its. The public pays the price,
and actually buys the Standard
Oil Co. over and over again every
two years without gaining any
thing in the end.

A Graphic Presentation.

We are wearied with the cost
of living problem and to a great
extent with tabulations and
scientific deductions, which do
not help the situation at all. Yet
it has remained for Senator Nc
Cumber of North Dakota to pre-
sent certain concrete facts not
only in an interesting but in a
decidedly graphic way. Not long
ago the Senator spent day in
New York City, and he has told
what that experience cost him if
his expenses had been paid in
farm products. This is his way
of putting it:
Cab to hotel-Six bushels of
oats.
Tip to driver-Fifteen cab
bages.
Tip to elevator boy-One and
one half bushels of barley.
Breakfast-Quarter ton of hay.
Tip to waiter-One and one
half bushels of potatoes.
Luncheon-One sheep.
Tip to waiter-One and one
half bushels of carrots.
Dinner-Four bushels of rye
Tip to waiter-One bushel of
onions.
Room-Half car of turnips.
Now, several interesting facts
may be deducted from this table.
In the first place, it shows that
the so-called excessive expenses
of a day in New York On the
scale of living enjoyed by Sena-
tor McCumber is out of all pro-
! portion to Unnecessary expense
The tips alone would feed an
average family for a week. The
tipping evil, therefore, is an i'm
portant part in the general prob
lem.
If all this produce of the farm
as represented in the McCumber
estimate were converted into

E, H. Carey, who is chairman
of the board of the United States
Steel Corporation, stated before
the House committee now inves-
tigating the steel trust, that the
antitrust laws were impotent to
regulate the trusts, and that the
only course now open was that
of government control of the
monopolized industries and gov
ernment regulation of prices in
the interest of the consumer.
He believes, as we do, that it is
impossible to carry our indus
trial system back to competitive
methods. The movement must
be forward, not backward.

Congressman Hensley has re-
introduced what is known as the
pawpaw militia pension bill of
Missouri. Some of our Demo
cratic exchanges are pretending
that this bill is something new,
having originated with Mr.. Hen
sley, yet every member from
this district in the past eight or
ten years introduced the same
measure. Mr.. Rhodes had it up
and made a vigorous fight for it,
later Mr.. Smith made it his bill
without result, who was followed
by Mr.. Elvins. The old militia
men need not tickle themselves
with the idea that Mr.. Hensley
is going to get this bill passed
where so many Of his predeces-
sors have failed.

Roosevelt on the Antitrust Decisions

Ex-President Roosevelt assails
the recent decisions of the Su-
preme Court in his characteris-
tic style in the late number of
the Outing" expressing views
that are consistently in line with
progressive thought on the trust
question, and while not quite as
advanced as those we have pre-
sented from time to time in these
columns, they are nevertheless
quite harmonious with them. We
quote Mr.. Roosevelt as follows:
AS construed by the Supreme
Court the antitrust law accom-
plishes a certain amount of good,
and it has been a good thing to
obtain the decision that has been
obtained against the Standard
Oil Company. But as means
of effectually graphing on behalf
of the whole people with the
problem created by what are
commonly called trusts-that is,
of enormous combinations of
corporation capital engaged in
interstate business-the anti
trust law is radically and vitality
defective and any effort to
strengthen it would be worse
than futile, and would result only
in prolonging the time during

The Democrats, of course,
have not yet repealed or amend
ed any of the existing tariff
schedules, but when a storm
threatens you see all good sail
Ors shorten sail to prevent a
wreck. Whenever the Demo
Gratis are in a position to threaten
the protective tariff system, cap
ital shortens sail until the storm,
real or threatened, has passed
over. That is the explanation of
the present industrial lassitude
and slump in prices.
