with an idle degenerate who spends

can help, when he teaches his son
that he is more proud of him when
he sees him at work, trying to be-

when he is simply waiting for some
money to be left him that he may

The United States government fl
ed a petition for dissolution of the
United States Steel Corporation in
the circuit court at Trenton, New
Jersey, Thursday. Thirty-siX sub
sidiary corporations and eighteen in
dividuals were named as defendants
The most important of these indivd-
uals are Peirpont Morgan, John D.
Rockefeller, Andrew Carnegie, Chas.
NJ. Schwab and e H. Gary.
The government charges that
there is direct connection between
the steel corporations and all large
railroad and steamship lines as we'll
as with the Standard Oil Company
The Pullman Company, the Interna-
tional Harvester Company, and the
Western Union Telegraph Company
The government declares also that
interlocking directorates have Civ
en- the Steel corporation control over
trade and com merce, and that the
acquisition of the coal and iron prop
erty was illegal and a national men
ace. 1t is alleged that Gary and
Prick misrepresented the facts tC
President Roosevelt, thus misleading
him into permitting the ABSORPTION
of the Tennessee Coal and Iron prop
critics in 1903.
f. H. Gary has been a leading fig

a matter for newspaper gossip thru
out the country. Gary invited all
the big fellows, especially those who
might be concerned in better prices

tition that resulted seemed to signify
that the affairs were not only for the
purpose of satisfying an appetite for
good food but also for the purpose
of satisfying the appetite for more

should Govern the Classification Of
Counties of This State

Olympia, Oct Salaries of of
hcers Of at least one and possibly
more counties of the state will be
reduced as result of decision
rendered today by the state supreme
court in the Adams county case of
Treasurer \. Faucher against A p
Rosenoff. On October 3. 1905. the
commissioners of Adams county de-
clared by formal order that the
population of the county was be-
tween 1900 and 5000 and placed
the county in the 18th class. under
which the county treasurer was en-
ItIed to receive a salary of $500
per annum.
Inc federal census of 1910 showed
the population of the county to be
but 1920, which would place it
In the 18th class and reduce the
salary Of the treasurer to $1,000.
The bureau of inspection advised
the auditor that he should not allow
warrants for pay Of county officers
j" excess of the law governing
counties of the 18th class and Treas
urer Faucher brought this suit TO
compel the auditor to pay the hi CHER
salary.
The supreme court in it's decision
says either there was an evident
loss OF population since 1906 or else
the county commissioners Numbered
most egregiously. The decision of

to compel payment of higher salaries

m Used
The decision, in effect, declares
that in the absence of other COM
petent evidence the federal census
is binding in determining the popu-
lation of counties, Fred Leghorn of
the bureau says this ruling affects
salaries also in Whitman. San Juan
and possibly a number of other
counties.

The Charleston Post does not
want the horse race game to be
played in Charleston, because,
it has degenerated into a gamb-
ling scheme. We hardly think
horse races would be very at
tractive unless there was some
betting, but there are other vices
practiced: even>in such an immac-
uiate city as Charleston, which
in our opinion are no worse than
betting on the races. True the
race meets are followed up by d
class Of people male and female
which do not add much to polite
society. yet these people do not
force themselves where they are
not desired and are splendid
spenders. A colony of sporting
people in Charleston would put
lots of money into circulation,
and if they did no more they
would paint the name Of Char
lesion on the map.

NO 10 CENTS COTTON.

The speculative eelementin New
York predict ten cents cotton tor
this season, but when they get to
showing down on the price they
will find a resistance such as they
never knew before. The cotton
growers are making this years
crop on a IA cent basis, and before
they will take less they will Eli
up the warehouses with it, there
fore it may as we'll be recognized
now that the farmers are not IN
the condition they we're a few
years ago, money is easy to OBJ.
tain. without having to depend
upon the great centers at the
North. The deposits in the banks
is made up largely OF the money
of the farmers, and the day has
come when any farmer who. is
disposed to pay his debts, can get
all the money he needs to carry
on his business from the local
banks. Therefore the fear Of be-
ing pressed no longer exists in
this country, and whenever the
market is pressed down to the
point where the producer cannot
dispose of his products TIA profit,
he can stay away from the mar
ket until conditions are different.
No there will not be ten cents
cotton this fall, it costs more than
that to make it.

The State Board of Education
has made answer to the critl-
cisms of the Superintendent and
to the others who regarded their
action in the text book adoption
as unwise, inconsiderate Of the
public, and unnecessary. The
showing the board makes sounds
logical, it puts a different shade
to the picture; words however,
from a fluent pen, and the actual
facts are two different things. Ac-
cording to the board, the alarm of
such an additional cost in the
books is more imaginary than
real, and it goes on by figures to
prove its side of the controversy
but when the time comes for the
purchase of these books the
physical fact Of having to shove
up the coin will be the proof Of
whether or not it is imaginary
or real. The statement of the
State Board is we'll written, even
if it is not convincing, ard al
though it claims the additional
cost in the books is nothing like
as has been represented, it never
has made it clear to our.mind the
necessity for such a radical
change.
