PENNY POSTAGE, MAYBE

Two items of news, one coming
from Washington and the other
from St. Paul, may be properly put
side by side. The Minnesota Rail-
road Commission obtained evidence
that the Wells-Fargo Express Com
pany, after increasing its stock from
100000 to $4,000, 900, and
paying large dividends, has cash
surplus of SO, 100000. For sixteen
years it paid 10 per cent dividends
on So, 900, 900, and two years ago
paid dividend of 100 per cent in
cash and 21O per cent in stock. By
the side of this may be put Post
master General Hitchcock's an
nouncement that the huge annual
post Office deficit has been extin-
guished, and that we can afford to
have penny postage. Then let the
Post Office for the benefit of the
people, extend its privileges to those
who have to provide these enormous
profit to our express companies.
Give us a cheap parcels post.

STORAGE IN TRANSIT
Fruit growers are taking a grea

Fruit growers are taking a great
deal of interest in the proposed
storage-in- transit" privilege which
is being sought from the railroads.
What it seeks is the privilege to
ship a car of fruit to any warehouse
and later continue it on to it's ulti-
mate destination, paying for the
total service the through rate from
the starting point, to the final point
of unloading. The only additional
cost would be a switching charge
because that is the only extra SER
vice in connection with the through
haul. Under present conditions,
fruits are shipped into a central
market and distributed from there.
The distribution costs extra, where
as immediate shipment to the point
of distribution would only have
cost the freight to the central mar
ket, had the shipper arranged for
his distribution. Fruitgrowers be-
lieve this privilege would afford
them considerable relief, without
entailing greater expense on the
railroads.

UNCLE JOE COMES BACK

! We never believed there was
much harm in Uncle Joe personally;
but we always believed there was
much ginger in him. For some
| five or six years he divided the
honOrs with Senator Aldrich and
Mr.. Morgan as the national bogy
man. The amiable old gentleman
from Danville was pictured as a
deadly upas tree whose sinister coils
strangled liberty, while his bloody
talons impoverished the many for
the benefit of the few. This seems
to have ranked in Uncle Joe's mind.
Resuming his place upon the
floor of the House, he recently took
his innings. One part Of his
elaborate speech upon Canadian
reciprocity describes how that meas
ure will result in prosperity for our
Canadian neighbors and bankruptcy
for those engaged in agriculture in
the United States" while another
part explains that the demand for
reciprocity arises from the greed of
newspaper publishers, who are de-
termined to get their print paper a
little cheaper altho they are now
rolling in wealth and altho the
accomplishment of their fendish
purpose means universal ruin for
the farmers. I'VE are asked" he
said, to open the doors and leopard
Use the farmers market for nearly
nine billion dollars worth of produce
to enable the publishers to get less
than six million dollars worth of
paper and pulp at less than they
have had to pay, when they are al.
ready making twenty-seven per cent
on their invested capital"
In comparison with this publish
ers' scheme to ruin the American
farmers in order to add a quarter
or half of one per cent to already
inordinate profits, Genghis Khan
looks like a philanthropist and the
Duke of Alva seems the very image
of charity. The reciprocity speech
was Uncle Joe's frs extended effort
since his separation from the Speak
ership. 1t proves conclusively,
that, when it comes to painting a
rawhead-and- bloody bones, no pub
Usher in the world has anything on
him.-Ex.

THE KINGS CORONATION

Taking a fall out of the bour-
geoisie has been one of the standard
occupations of mankind ir all ages.
Kings and mobiles used to do it; So
cialists do it now. The coming
grand state ceremonial in London is
chiefly interesting as an illustration
of how amazingly the bourgeoisie
has thriven on abuse. Time was
when the monarch's only use for
the tradesman was to tax, fine, in
suit and blk him. Time is when
trade indulgently countenances the
monarch and makes a frst-class
business asset out of him. He is an
adveI tisement of unrivalled efficacy
1t has been calculated that at the
coming coronation Americans alone
will disburse the price of ten thou
sand farmers automobiles, and that
the ceremony's total attractive power
upon the popular purse will be
equal to that of five million agate
line of first-class newspaper adver-
Using. Another calculation has it
that the money spent in London
during the coronation month would
reach back to King Alfred and buy
him the only suit of underclothes
extent in his time.
Adam Smith described kings as,
without exception, the greatest
spendthrifts in society" Much
has happened since then, however,
and sensitive king, viewing his
own tindling disbursements, might
well weep over the prodigal expend-
itures he causes others to make. In
mere pounds and shillings he would
be much better off if he oper-
ated on strictly business basis and
got commission of five per cent.
A king is crowned, but trade con-
conducts the show and pockets the
gate receipts. The notices for the
august occasion ought to read
= Long Live the Bourgeoisie. FIX.

BLAME TAFT

In recent issue of a Seattle
weekly, William T. Prosser declares
the blame for the present Alaska
coal situation is squarely up to
President Taft, and that the CHIEF
executive could accomplish the re-
lief desired by Alaskans with an
executive order that might take ten
minutes to prepare. He points out
that with Alaska coal and oil lands
opened 5000 men would at once be
set to work building the Alaska
Northern railroad 800 miles into
the Matanuska coal fields; the
Copper River & Northwestern, and
at least one other railway would
build into the Boring Lake district;
great power plants would be bui t
with the Tannana coal fields as
base, supplying electrical energy to
dredges and stamp mills all thru
central Alaska; that the gold out
put Of the Northern territory would
be increased from $2O,OO0,O0O to
500, 100000 a year, and that un-
limited quantities of coal and oil
the oil from the Katalla fields in
addition to the flow now available
and being developed there-would
be rendered Of service to Pacific
Coast industries.

ATWOOD'S LONG FLIGHT
Aviator Lands 13i Miles From New
York

Castleton, y. Y, Aug. 23.-On the
last lap of his flight from ST. Louis
TO New York, Harry y. Atwood, the
aviator, tonight has his aeroplane
III ched TO an apple tree on top Of a
h2I here overlooking the Hudson
and Albany, eight miles to the north.
Atwood expects to complete his Jour-
ney to New York. landing at Sheeps-
mead Bay, with possible prelim-
mary circle over Governors Island,
tomorrow. on Landing he will have
accomplished the longest flight
through the air ever made by man
IN heavier-than-air machine He
VIII hold the worlds record for a
cross-country flight, and he believes
ae has set pace in the DEVELOPMENT
Of aeroplanes which will result in
more long distance attempts and
gradual elimination Of fatalities in
aviation. He hopes to sail over the
l3f miles between here and New York
tefore mid-afternoon. 1t is probable
the way, because he carried only
twelve gallons Of gasoline. and uses
one gallon to every ten miles. He
hopes to make his first hop" the
longest, so that he would be able
more accurately to estimate the ex-
act time Of his appearance over New
York. His actual flying time from
here down, he thinks, will be much
less than three hours
When he landed here. Atwood. in
ten days, had flown 1,131 miles from
It. Louis without any mishap more
serious than losing his way in a run
from Lyons, n. Y, to Auburn. His
biplane has endured the tests without
damage. 1t was only because of a
slight wearing of the bearings Of his
engine that he decided not to con-
tinue tonight, but to put everything
In shape for smooth sailing tomor-
row. His mechanics prepared 10
work on the bipIane all night. at
taching pontoons for possible land
ings in the Hudson River.
Leaving probably early in the
morning, Atwood will take straight
course down the Hudson. His an
pearance over Rhine Cliffs will mark
the breaking Of the worlds record
for croSs-country flight, for at that
point he will have exceeded the
worlds record.
