Now, into the wonderful park we
go. We spent four days making a
stage drive of one hundred and ten
miles in the park. one day of which
was spent in snow-balling. Instead
of camping as formerly contemplate
ed we used the only system of hotel
in the park.
The Old Faithful Inn was the
most beautiful hotel in the park.
This hotel was named for the Old
Faithful Gegser. which plays every
sixty eight minutes. This hotel is
on the log cabin style. We saw the
Bee Hive Geyser. The Sponge, The
Handkerchief, The Punch Bowl,
The Black GROWER, The Morning
Glory. The Giant, The Fountain and
The Valentine, which was the only
one whose waters were cold We
saw and enjoyed many other beau

long and twelve thousand feet deep,

In the park we saw the deers,

animals. We also saw the eagle.

INSURANCE AND PENSIONS.

Victor Berger. Socialist congress-
man. has introduced a bill into the
house providing for old pensions. 1t
is nodded after the old age pension
laws of other countries where Soci-
alisfs have exercised power. Under
its provision every laW-abldlng
worker on reaching the age OF fifty
years is given a pension OF S4 a
week. It is quite likely the measure
will not pass at this session OF con-
gress, but it shows the attitude OF
the Socialists and it is only a ques-
ton of time when it will be adopted.
Wisconsin is the first state in the
union to adopt a state life insur-
ance law. 1t is fathered by Her
man L. Ekern and was adopted
largely through the efforts of the
Socialist members of that legisla-
ture.
The present officials will admin
lister the law without the creation
of any additional offices. Policies
will be issued to residents Of the
state between the ages OF twenty
and fifty years in sums Of $500 or
$1,000 with annuities issued in sums
of 500 5000 and $500 to begin at
an age not earlier than sixty years
Expenses are to be paid out Of the
premium. Many features are IN ac-
cordance with life insurance Tea
lures now in existence, except that
III this case the insurance Is by the
state with state guarantee and II
given at cost, doing away with the
immense profits that private COM
panies have been making.

TIE EXPLOITED FARMERS.

B. F. Yoakum, head Of the Frisco
railroad recently made a startling
statement which is worthy analysis.
He said that it cost the American
farmers seven billion dollars every
year to market crop worth nine
billions.
If you will think over these fig
ures a little you can readily see why
the farmer is poor and why tenantry
is so prevalent among the agricul-
turists of the land. While they
apparently raise crops to the value
Of something like S9,0O0,0o0,000 a
year, and while this is beralded as a
great achievement, still, according
to YOakum's figures, the real re-
turns are only a little over $4,000, :
600 GOO. When this is divided up"
between all the agrieulturists OF
The United States, it will be seen
That the average returns for the la
Dor Of these necessary producers IS
modest indeed
What becomes Of the remaining
$1,000 100000 which the crops are
said to be worth? Railroad man
ayers. including Mr.. Yoakum, no
doubt understand very well what
a rake off they get for carrying the
stuff to market. Then exchanges,
the commission houses, the retail
dealers, all get a portion OF it. TAX
en- together it represents the terrible
tribute laid by the profit system on
that class of producers known as
the agriculturlsts. Another railroad
magnate recently said that the rail
roads counted on five hundred dol
lars year business directly or in
directly from every farmer in the
country.
Fifty years ago farming was the
greatest industry in the United
States and more than a-third OF the
people were engaged in it. It then
controlled packing, canning and
manufacturing of many things
which have since been taken from 1t
through the use Of the big machine.
Manufacture, employing big ma
chinery, now produces nearly twice
what the farms do, while employing
far fewer persons.
The result of the persistent eX-
ploitation OF the farmer is seen III
the tremendous growth of the cities
and the development OF million
aires It is manifested again III the
shifting of political power to the
east as a center of wealth. There
is a sectionalism in this country
now as real as that which prevailed
in the days when the south dom.-
mated America, Dut now it IS the
east the manufacturing center, that
is in control. The great west and
the south. the farming centers, are
dominated and exploited to the limit
