The house centipede has but recently
come to Chicago. Another name for it is
"skein centipede," from the tangled, thread
like appearance of the numerous legs,
which easily detach themselves when the
animal is captured or crushed under foot.
The house centiPede belongs to the
same family as the very poisonous cent?
pede of the southern states and its home
was originally in that part of the country,
but since we have continuous summer con-
ditions here in our warm flat buildings the
house centipede has gradually moved north

BUTCHERING DAY.

Recently in a New York penitentiary
seven men were executed by the cleo
trio chair in on day. Dispatch was
made and the information is that the
seven killings We're accomplished in
one hour and sixteen minutes. 1t was
record both as to the number Of per-
sons killed in one day and OF expedi-
ton in slaughtering.
There is a suggestion Of packing
house methods in the story. Imagine,
If you can a wholesale killing like this.
It is a picture OF infinite horror. Seven
men marched thru the dim corridors,
seven men strapped into the chair one
after another, seven times the agoniz-
ing struggle and the scent Of burning
flesh as the current scorched its way.
Seven corpses piled In the dead room.
What Of the attendants whose duty
It was to carry on this holocaust? How
did the men who administered the pen
atty manage to live thru an hour and
sixteen minutes of such work in the
official slaughter house of the state Of
New York!
II capital punishment Is to continue
1t should be conducted as quietly as
possible. To make a butcherinS day
like this Is outrageous.

A Possible Plan for Place.

minneapolis Journal
The hatred Of congress toward the
merit system, which used to take the
form Of motion to strike out the ap-
preparation for the civil service COM
mission, has taken a new form in the
present session.
In the legislative, executive and ju-
dicial appropriation bill there is pro-
vision for a seven-year tenure of clerks
under the civil service. This means
that, instead Of holding during good
behavior. clerks will be considered to
have finished their term of employ
ment after seven years, and may then
be reappointed. Also they may not.
Others may be put in their places.
The motive of congress in making
this provision is mixed. In the senate,
which is VIGOROUSLY prone to place
hunting, it was pure politics. In the
house there was some pretense OF con-
sulting the public interest
Argu1n ents were made there to show
that the service was embarrassed by
the presence on the pay rolls Of the
parasites Of political leaders who did
no work, or as little as possible, for the
government while they put in their
hard ticks for the men who got them
appointed.
disappointment after seven years
would, 1t was claimed. be a real re-
ward of merit, while discharge then
would work no hardship, since the dis
missed employees would have had sew

We have reserved for the end COM
ment on the nomination Of Hiram
Johnson. California gives no better
proof of its devotion to the cause than
in yielding it's governor from the serv-
ice of the state to the service OF the
nation. He has been. in good truth. our
leader. In an amazingly short time he
has wrought great things. He found
California a mere tax-province paying
tribute to the Southern Pacific railroad
and it's allied corporations. He struck
from the state the shackles of ignoble
servitude and restored 1t to sovereign
ty. He found California slave and made
it free. He captained the war that was
waged to regain for the people the
rights over government they had lost,
and won every battle. Under his lead
ership the people have become the
rulers OF the state. Their political pow
er at last Is supreme.
Uncorrurted and incorrupHble; Of
unconquerable courage and Of tenaci-
Gus integrity; strong in mind and
body; devoted by conviction to the
cause OF popular sovereignty and gifted
with the power to impart to the very
souls Of men belief in the principles
that fill his soul, Hiram Johnson Is as
a man raised up by God to do his work.
We in California have learned to love
him as we'll as honor him, for he IS one
to win public affection and confidence.

gard. Our Judgment Of Johnson ac-

Lincoln Journal. ]


When Fourier, the Fysnch socialist
was young man he made the as
tonishing discovery that, apples were
sold at much higher price in Paris
stalls than in the native orchards OF
his native province. This exhibition OF
the exactions of the miGdlen1an helped
nightly to make him the socialist he
later became. BY means OF socialism he
imagined Paris people could eat their
apples as cheaply as the people Of his
Besancon, some. ALLOWANCE being made
for cost Of transportation.
Fourier's view OF the place of the
middleman is 4 common one. Those
who grow crops and those~who prepare
them for use frequently speak Of them
selves as producers, in cOntradistinc-
ton to those who merely buy and sell
these things. The merchant, the mid
dleman." is held parasite. He STANDS
between the producer and consumer
taking in passage profit. which should
be divided between these other two. In
all times the niddleman has found II
expedient to keep secret the proper
ton Of profit IN the goods he sells. 70!
purchasers have commonly felt irrita-
ton, q sense Of oppression, that there
should be any profit at all. We see this
sentiment played upon by concerns
that advertise direct dealing with the
public, tho in most cases these are
middlemen themselves.
In his confession Of faith to the neN
party convention, Mr.. Roosevelt falls
into this way OF thinking. He refers tc
Secretary Wilson's estimate that the
consumer pays for farm, produce twice
what the farmer gets. and demands 8
more direct relationship between the
farmer and the consumer.
So long as such feelings are aimed
only at abuses fostered by middlemer
there can be no objection. If middle
men get to regarding themselves as al
end rather than a means to prosperity
as when they block reasonable par
cells post in order to compel people t.
| petronize them, there is room for OBJ
lection. When they form monopolies
as the grain dealers did, and as Other
lines Of retail business occasionally do
there Is nothing to be said for them
| But the middlsman as g. class Is {
producer as truly AS the farmer OF
manufacturer. and we should not for
get 1t. We can not do without bridge!
across rivers. We may abolish the in.
dependent competing middleman, blu
