LITERATURE
FOR MEXICAN Poems
When Up to Date Supply
Gave Out, Ancient Did
Just as Well

Three hundred typical Mexican poems
gathered at the Union station this
morning to be transported to differ
ent parts of the country to work in
section gangs on the Santa Fe.
They presented very amusing
sight as they tried to climb over the
fence with their gaudy blankets, and
were accordingly pulled down by the
station policemen. One of the Next
cans went to the window after seeing
a woman get folder and asked for
one himself. The agent gave him one
and the peon was soon surrounded
by about so Of his comrades, who
wanted to. see it, and "a general free
foralI fight ensued. This was soon
stopped and all lined up in front of
the window, each asking for a ''pape1"
About so of the Santa Fe folders were
given out. Then the agent began to
give out bunch of old outofdate fold
ers. Some of the Mexicans were soon
seen carefully perusing folders Of the
South American Short Zine, others IN
terested in 8 Yazoo & Mississippi
booklet.
AS none OF the Mexicans could read
English, no violence was perpetrated.

to be in part, at least, the rightful
possession of the very persons upon
whom it is bestowed under the aspect
OF charity.
And the bitterness so engendered is
still further intensified by the fact
that such benefactions are interpreted
by the beneficiaries-and not always
unjustly-as purchase money laid down
on earthly ground in advance payment

Why Do Not the Immensely Wealthy
1t is strange that wealthy donors do
not appreciate this. And it is further
more strange that those who are pos
Sessed of the large fortunes which are
the provoking cause Of so much unrest
and constant menace to our peace and
stability are not alert to devise means
for averting the storm that assuredly
impends, and that will sooner or later
break over our heads unless the bur-
den resting upon the shoulders of the
less favored is very materially light
ened and grounds given them for feel
ing that their rights are going to be
fairly interpreted and justly conceded.
The selfishness of human nature is
such, however, that little can be ex-
pected from individual initiative, and

ton Something was done by Mr..
Roosevelt's administration. and what
he accomplished was gained in spite
Of capital, not by its aid.

action in the two following particu-
lars. each of which will be in the ma
ture Of relief and exempt from any sus-
picion of charity.

The loss to the national revenues so
resulting may do much good by re-
vising upward the tariff on luxuries,
or, better still, by the practice Of a
reasonable economy at Washington-a
virtue of which national Legislation
seems utterly innocent
The second is the adoption OF the
personal income tax, as called for by
the proposed income tax, as called for
by the proposed constitutional amend

1t is generally conceded that wealth
does not carly its fair share of the
public burden, and any disposition to
oppose the personal income tax bill as
bearing heavily on capital is confess
sion of willingness and responsibilities.
The situation is a menacing one and

The Folly of Leaving 1t All TO a Spe-
ciaI Providence.
The doctrine that we are under the
care of some special divine providence
who will see US through in spite of
everything has not much to be said in
its favor, either logically or religious
".
Others with an even E.ore careless
and wretched abandonment are saying,
after US the deluge," reconci1ed to
have the country and its institutions
go to the dogs if only disaster can be
deferred till the next generation
Which leads on to say that the
truest hope OF patriotism is that
which has a heart for the country's
future quite as much as for its pres
ent, and which aims so to safeguard
and strengthen its institutions as to
secure their ability.
In the present crisis, therefore. the
most pertinent question that can be
asked is, What is there being done
that will tend to- allay existing discon-
tent by removing the GROUNDS of

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required to

Have you ever stopped to reason
why II is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop out Of sight and are soon forgot
ten? The reason is plain-the article
did not fulfil the promises of the
manufactures. This applies more
particularly to a medicine. A medi-
cinal preparation that has real cura-
tive value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
cured, to those who are IN need of It..
In an interview on the subject a
prominent local druggist says Take
for example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
a preparation ! have sold for many
years and never hesitate to recon-
mend. for in almost every case It
shows immediate results, as many of
my customers testify. No other kid
ney remedy that I know OF has so
large a sale"
The success of DR.. Kilmeris swamp
