Taft Against the Farmers.

As Gov. Wilson says the farmer
feeds the country. while Congress has
been feeding the trusts. He is fore
ed to sell in the cheapest market
and buy in the greatest monopoly
market in the world. When Mr..
Taft vetoed the bills passed by Con-
gress to relieve the farmer of some
of his burden, he struck a blow at
the foundation of wealth at the
country and showed how firmly he
is held in the grasp of the interests.
The match1ess leader on the floor of
the House, Hon. Oscar Underwood.
says that had the bills passed, been
permitted to become laws without
the interference of the President.
the people of this country would
have saved $3.50. 100000. The House
passed some of the bills over Taft's
veto but the Senate was like Taft.
bound to his idols. Mr.. Taft admit
ted that his party had not kept
faith with the people in some of the
schedules of the tariff, but when
given the opportunity to correct
them he failed to do so, giving the
flinriest of pretexts. Such course
could only result in the failure of his
administration. The people have
lost confidence in him and he will
soon go into merited retirement. A
glorious day is dawning for Demo.

Confer With Postmasters.
The postmasters of the five largest
offices In the country have already
appeared before the committee. SO
Pittsburg was represented as being
large first class office. though smaller
than any of the greater five, and as
being the center Of a tremendous man,
ufacturing area. The postmaster OF
Pittsburg reported that the board Of
trade OF that city has a special parcel
post committee, working toward
bringing the consumer and producer
nearer to each other by the new sys
tenn He also said that many Of the
merchants are planning to have their
city deliveries made by parcel post.
Wilmington, Del. represented a
large farming and manufacturing dis
trict, with its mail connections close
with Philadelphia, one Of the largest
offices Jacksonville is the largest Of
fee In Florida, and the outlet for all
the mail of the state. 1t is peculiar
in having a special increase of force
in winter, the tourist season. and the
postmaster said that it was expected
that travellers would use the parcel
post extensively in sending home five
and ten-pound packages Of fruit
Suffolk. Va, and Charlestown, w.
Va. are both very small second class
offices. one in the tide-water district,
with large truck interests; the other
far inland in an orchard country. with
diversified farm products The post
masters Of both offices reported great
interest in the parcel post, and said
that they had continual inquiries re-
garding its scope,
From these postmasters the com
mittee was able to CLEAN a great
amount Of valuable information.

NIAGARA MADE BY GLACIER
Columbia River Was Damned, and
Had a Fall Of Four Hundred Feet
over Great Cliffs.

That one OF the greatest natural
wonders in the world was lost with
the melting OF the Okanogan glacier
in the State OF Washington, Is the
opinion Of government geologists, who
recently have studied portion Of the
river bed of the Columbia river in
connection with the Grand coulee, the
great canyon that at one time was
the river bed.
When the Columbia river flower
through the Grand coulee It made Nj
agara Insignificant by comparison.
This great river plunged from the up
per to the lower valley in a sheer
fall of 400 feet over great cliffs.
Moses lake is believed to have
been at one time part OF an old chan
mel of the Columbia river. During the
glacial period, recent, as time is meas
ured b ythe geologist. the valleys Of
the Northern Cascades and OF the
O,-a-ogan highlands were filled with
enormous glaciers, the largest of
which reached the plains before they
were melted In the warmer air Of
the lower country.
TIE greatest Of these ice rivers Of
eastern Washington flowed down the
Okanogon valley, which 1t filled to the
depth of hundreds OF feet
On reaching the Columbia river val
ley this glacier expanded and seems
not only to have damned the Colum-
bia. but to have filed It's great canyon
for some distance.
The southern limit of this great
Okanogan glacier is marked by a
terminal moraine many miles in
width. The moraine is formed Of dirt
and rock material which was push
ed along or carried on its surface and
stranded where the ice melted. and it
includes many huge blocks Of basalt
and other rocks.
No more impressive scene, the ge-
ologists say, can be found In the Big
Bend country than is presented by
the great cliffs Of black basaIt below
couIee City, over which the Columbia
once poured. but where now desert
shrubs are growing In the ancient
channel
When the glacier left the canyon Of
the Columbia and retreated up the
Akanogan valley the river re-
sumed its former channel. -Indianap-

Man Who scoffed.

He used to scoff at women,
Called them foolish, brainless things
Who would sell their souls for dresses,
Or for necklaces or rings.
He scorned them for their efforts
To be beautiful and sweet.
But there chanced to be a woman
Fate had destined him to meet.
She was neither good nor lovely,
Though he fondly thought her so;
She was mostly artificial,
But, poor, fool, he didn't know!
Today men look in pity
On the man who used to soon,
And wonder what will happen
When the mask
falls
on.
