Neighbors" Dr. z. O'Connel on Our
Duty to our Neighbor'' and Rev John
Van Schaick jr.. on "Co-Operation.' y
Camp Pleasant is situated at Lincoln
Heights, ID. c., and is for colored moth
eTs and children
The report of the superintendent and
medical director showed that the total
population of the camp for the season
was pa. Of whom there were 81 boys. 139
girls and - adults. The health of the
camp was excellent. Outside of the chill
drcn who came to the camp sick. it was
stated. there was no sickness at ali among
the campers, and there were some con-
spicuous cases of Improvement.
Story of Two Boys.
As an example of the Improvement the
director told the following story:
.'In one of the parties two boys strug-
gled up the hill with their bundles. Dur
ing one of their frequent stops for breath
one was heard to say, Man, I'm tired
So am l., said the other boy. and ! am
so weak and hungry L can hardly STAND
up I'm hungry. too said the first boy:
I haven't had anything TO eat today
Afterward. when the time came to leave,
these same boys, filled and satisfied with
good. regular meals. had lost the wan
and pnched look which hunger paints
and were thoroughly happy.
1T Is a reflection on this great, wealthy
nation of ours that such lads. bright with
the promise of a useful manhood, should
he compelled to return to the alley life.
where poverty and hunger will soon in
evitably lead them to vice, immortality
and crime the director said.

Looks Favorable.

AS stated in these columns last
week, the new homestead bill
passed the senate and sine, our
last report it has passed the
house. 1t is now up to the pres
ident to sign, and just what that
worthy will do with it, is a guess.
Some one has said that he prom
ised to sign the bill. but you
remember he promised the whole
country that he would see to it
that the tariff was revised in ia
vor of the people, but he didn't
say what class of people, so you
and I got the worst of it in that
d cal.
Here's hoping that the pres
ident will sign the new home
stead bill, and while it's provisions
may not suit everyone, so far as
this writer has been able to in
terpret the bill it is a good one
and will be of great relief and of
benefit to our people.

Ode to Champ Clark.

Democracy's calling loudly on her own
Her head is filled with sorrow,
She's been driven from her home,
And been chained to many idols,
And in strange lands had to roam;
She's calling, calling, Champ Clark
To lead her to her throne.
She knows that he will crush the rob-
bing tariff,
And can make the nation free,
And break the chain the trust has
formed
Upon the land and sea.
He will guide the Ship of State safely
Through the storm of strife and woe,
To the harbor of peace and plenty
Ere the tide becomes too low.
He'll bring home the mothers darlings
From the far off heather isle,
Where they linger in their sorrow
Meath the dark alien skies.
For he believes not in coercion
Where the starry banner waves,
1t should never float in triumph
Ger land of driven slaves.
And he'll help our toiling brothers
In their struggle for the right,
His heart is always with them
In their lowly, toiling life.
They shall have homes of sunshine
In the glorious western land,
When Clark is in the White House
And Justice reigns again.
And democracy says ''Champ, you
light the camp fires
Ger the Mason and Dixon lines,
SO that my wandering brothers,
May see the light that Shines"
She's not forgotten their courage,
In the days of Auld Lang Syne,
When they fought her battles bravely
And worshipped at her shrine.
And the heroes of the nation
Who served us long and we'll,
Shall be honored by our leader,
For the record they have won.
No standpats of the army,
Shall dim their glorious fame,
When Champ Clark's in the White
House,
And justice reigns again.
And the mothers of the nation,
Will call blessings on his name,
And the wives of toiling millions
Will pray for his success.
For the homes of want and poverty
Will forever pass away,
When democracy is victorious
On the next election day.

After passing through the most
disgusting and disreputable mu-

of that good city, the Denver
daily press is now in fine fettle
to start a contest to determine
whether certain so-called society
maids and matrons Of that city
should wear real clothes or 60
without. Some subjects already
printed show the nude form to
be the most popular with both
the subjects and the Denver
daily newspapers. Some Of the

erful few on the rights of the many.
All the issues of today are but phases
,, of this one great question. How shall
the individual, the farmer, the worker
and all those who pay tribute, be set
free from the unjust exactions of the
tariff, the railroads, the money power
, and other forms of oppression by
special interests?
The combinations have unlawfully
taken possession of the whole country.
They control transportation, manu-
. featuring, mining, capital and credit,
the market price of everything the
farmer sells, the market price of fevery-
thing the consumer must buy. They
have achieved this control-except as
to few of the older trusts-almoste en-
tirely under the last two administra-
tions, Notwithstanding the prosecu-
tions for which SO much has been
claimed.
When Roosevelt became president,
the total amount of the stock and bond
issues of all combinations and trusts,
! including the railways then In combi-
nation, was only $3, 7S4. 900, 900. When
he turned the country over to Taft,
, whom he had selected as his successor,
the total capitalization of the trusts
! and combinations amounted to the
enormous sum of s3l ,672, ,OOO, 900, more
than 10 per cent. of which was water.
Prices were put up on transportation,
and on the products of the mines and
factories to pay interest and dividends
on this fraudulent capitalization.
The organization of these combina-
tions in transportation, mining, man
ufacturing, money, credit, and the
control of the markets, was criminal
conspiracy. 1t was in violation OF
the common law, and federal statute.
1t was subject to punishment by both
fine and Imprisonment. Moreover,
under the provisions of the statute,
every such combination could have
been enjoined, and violation of such
iniunctive order would have been pun
ish able by Imprisonment for contempt.
The federal statute specifically made
it the duty of the government to exc
cute the law.
If, in the earlier stages of trust for
nation, the Executive had used all the
power of this great government to en-
| force the antitrust law, it would have
saved the people the payment of hun
dreds of millions of dollars wrongfully
taken from them in excessive transpor-

tation rates, and in exorbitant trust
prices which they have had to pay for
the necessaries of life. Had this been
done before these combined monopo-
lies acquired such absolute mastery,
the people would not now be confront
ed with this momentous question: Are
these trusts and combinations strong
er than the government itself? That
Is the supreme issue. Can the people
free themselves from this power? Can
the unjust burden of fraudulent capi-
talization be lifted from themP
The trusts and combinations, the
railroads, the steel trust, the coal
trust, all are scheming to secure some
action by the government which will
legalize their proceedings and SANG
tion their fictitious capitalization.
The situation is critical. 1t may be
expected from the attitude of the Su-
preme Court, as shown in the Standard
Oil and Tobacco cases, that any act
on the part of the executive or the lev
islative branch of government, giving
countenance to trust or combination
Will be construed as an approval of
the thousands of millions of watered
stocks and bonds issued, and will
fasten upon the people for all time the
speculative capitalization of our pub
lie service and business corporations.
The time is at hand to declare for a
statute which shall make it everlast-
ingly impossible for any President,
or any Congress. or any Court, to le-
galize spurious capitalization as
basis OF extortionate prices, but
platform, however strong and pro-
gressive, is not enough. Forexample.
the platform of 1908 was plain dec
laration for revision of the tariff on
the basis of the difference in the cost
OF production. Revision in compli-
ance with that pledge would have
enormously reduced the Dingley du-
ties, but the President elected on that
platform, approved the Payne-Aldrich
bill, increasing these duties.
The lesson is obvious. Its teaching
must not be forgotten. The citizen
should ask what the candidate has
actually done toward solving the
problems that confront us; whether
his course of action gives assurance
of profound conviction; whether he is
equipped with patience, determination
and experience to deal with these
problems, constructively, in the pub
lie interest.

assessed, collected and paid over

In the case of unpatented claims
remedy should be sought fer what

should be made actual and effective
by inspection and supervision, in
