is scheduled for 9 trip to San Fran

tuencies.
0They all do it, they all swing around
the circle, or part way around. Bryan
is on the go all the time and President
Taft during every moment of the time
he can spare for it. Wilson has
"done" the southwest and he made q

The latest comment dealing with the

there probably isn't the slightest war

SQUARE WITH THE LAW.

Az Theodore Roosevelt repeatedly
stated when he was president, those
big business enterprises which were
not breaking the law are entitled tc
the support and encouragement of al
the people a. we'll as government Of
fcials. It is only those that are
breaking the law which should be
prosecuted.
This difference wss clearly expressed
by President Taft in his Chicago
speech, when he said:
"There is q vast difference in unit.
ing plants to reduce the cost of pro.
duction and uniting to suppress com
petition, to restrain trade and control
prices.
II believe q large number of bust.
ness interests are square with the law.
There is only one way that I know OF
to cure the corporations that are suf-
fering from contsgion and disease and
that is to eradicate the disease. The
law will be enforced"
Such direct speech is the best treat.
ment of the stu alton.
There is q widespread attempt be.
ing made by those big business con
cerns which have been endeavoring to
monopOlize business for the purpose
of creating high ,,r're, T.. force the ad.
ministrs alton to ignore ne Sherman
antitrust law.
Positive statements of the president
that he intends to enforce the law, fol.
lowed by actual prosecutions such as
have begun against the steel trust will
loon convince the trusts that they
must give up their monopolistic pro.
gram and conform to the law.
Had the president showed doubt as
to what course he should follow the
trust managers would seize upon his
hesitation ss q justification for them
to 60 on In their old way.
They have no purse open, in view
of the presidents positive stand, ex-
cept to rearrange their aft airs and to
avoid hereafter making arrangements
to control prices if they wish to avoid
the risk of being sent to Jail for con.
tempt OF court.-Spokesman Review.

Thousands Killed On Railroads

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.--Statistics
show that the odds are l to las that a
railroad man will be killed on his job
and l to ID that he will be injured.
The Interstate commerce commissions
report of American railroad accidents
in the twelve months ended on June &c
shows that ratio.
In that period 1896 persons were
killed and 100, l59 we're injured. How
ever, only 1856 passengers were killed
More than one.half the total number
killed were trespassing or stealing
rides on trains.

THE HILL COUNTY CASE.

The decision OF the supreme court
In the Hill county case will result IN
the postponement of the special cleo.
ton called for November 20, and will
cause disappointment among those
who hoped to effect the organic alton
of the new county on that date. 1t
appears, from the unofficial report of
the decision, tina. it will be necessary
for the board of commissioners to
canva ASS the counter petition that was
rejected at the hearing of about three
months ago, and repeat some of the
formal action taken at that time.
The suit in which the decision was
rendered was based upon the refusal
OF the board to recognize a petition in
which the signers requested. that the
territory in which they resided should
not be included 10 the proposed county
of Hill. II appeared to the board that
the petition was not in proper form,
and was rejected mainly for that rea-
son. The view OF the after taken by
the supreme court, however, differs
from that of the county authorities,
these extracts from q newspaper report
of the matter showing the position
taken by tha a tribunal:
In disposing of the objection raised
by the county board Of commissioners
that mand anus Is not an appropriate
remedy because the time within which
the board could consider such counter
petition has expired, the court says:
"Since We have determined that the
counter petition is sufficient, it was
and now is the duty of the commits.
sioners to hear evidence in support of
it, and, if the necessary facts appear
to so far reform the lines of the pro-
posed new county as to exclude this
territory. This duty is absolute-one
resulting from the Office and specif'
cally enjoined by law. To cay that the
courts are helpless to compel per
Torrance of such q duty, merely be-
cause the time within which the dut,
should have been performed hal
elapsed, is tsntamount to holding tina
. public ofloisl, by delaying actor
until the time designated for actor
has expired, may defeat the will Of tn
people - expressed by the Legislature
and that there 10 not any redress fol
those who are injured by such non
action"
The board Of county commissioner
had no right, the court holds, to con
slider the counter petition apart frou
y the original petition. 1.-THE proceed
ing for the creation of q new count,
is IN entirety and includes oil step
taken from the time the original petit
ton is filed, until . copy Of the resolu
ton declaring the result of the cleo
ton is presented to the secretary o
state" observes the court. "Chsptel

through it. viz: to permit the peopl'
directly interested to determine TO-
themselves whether . new county shsl
be created and what territory shall
be included in the new county, If i

The religion Of patriotism may
sound blasphemous to some ears,
but that patriotism be less than
religion is the conception which
has prepared the way for the
civic corruption Of the last dec.
ade. We are to serve the state
not only with our bodies as SOL
diers and policemen nor even
with our bodies alone as voters,
but, as Thoreau has put it, with
our consciences as citizens. Ours
ought to be a religion of patriot
ism, for America Is not a land
