A BOHER-PLATE TRUST DANGER.

III are about 10000 small newspapers in the United
I'll States that use what is called "boiler plate" which is
printed matter of all kinds cast in metal and ready for
the press without typesetting. A number of large concerns fur
unish these plates and they are combined in a trust and so
organized that they control the distribution of the boiler plate.
There is a grave public danger involved in this monopoly which
han be used to poison an important source of public Informal
|Gon. 1t has already been done to a large extent. The boilers
plate concerns have made contracts to print and send out, in
Il regular way, articles written up d~esignedly to influence read
ers. How this can be abused need not be told, and the oppor-
kunty to reach and influence the readers of many thousands
M small newspapers is a tempting one to special interests that
&eek to manufacture public sentiment. If the boilerplate trust
kan be smashed the danger it represents may at least be
minimized.

James Hackett, AZ, a laborer, for the
murder of his. wife, Jane Hackett, 43,
a barmaid at the Rose and Crown, on
the twenty-seventh of last month,
under particularly distressing circum-

ALL OUT

A Cub" reporter was sent out by

was confronted by a servant girl.

TO HAVE A MILITARY AVIATION CORPS.

long beated and highly necessary step has been taken
u by the House of Representatives in the passage of a bill
providing double pay for officers in the army and navy
Petsned as aviators and providing for the detail of thirty officers
b each service for q nucleus of an aerial corps. Owing to the
persistent neglect by Congress we are ridiculously in the rear
tf other nations in the Development of a military arm that has
kfready become formidable and will be q great factor in future
vars. The aeroplane owes its origin to American ingenuity and
buck, but we have let France and Germany snatch the benefits.
Ehe fault is entirely with Congress, which until now has been
Pbstinately and stupidity deaf to the recommendations of the war
and the appeals of army officers.

DRY GOODS ALSO GOING UP.

XIV EXT to food, clothing is the chief of mankinds elementary
NW necessities, and it is a heavy additional burden to find
the cost of what we wear steadily advancing with that
II what we eat. From Chicago come reports of higher prices.
IND further increases expected, and conditions in that centre of
he dry goods trade reflect those throughout the country.
Bearer raw cotton and wool is the cause assigned. There is
.iways a cause to be found for boosted prices other than the
Veal cause. AS Mr.. Taft will have the wool and cotton tariff

taking his beating very badly.
He kept thinking of all the things

Next door to the crusty old tinker
there lived a bricklayer. and the tin

of a blackened eye, evidence of an
attack upon him by the tinker.
The parson got to hear of the al
tercation that was at the ROOT of the
trouble and, meeting the tinker one
day, determined tactfully to mention
the matter. \

DEMAND DECREASED, PRICES INCREASED.

ARKETMEN report a heavy falling off in the sales of
NVn beef and yet prices keep going up. Last week there
was another advance of one cent a pound. making
present prices higher than war or famine prices. 1t is evident
hat the meat barons are determined to defy the law of demand
Ind supply. They think the people will abandon self denial
When they find it unavailing to bring down prices, but the self
>enial is from sheer necessity. People eat less meat because
they cannot afford TO pay the exorbitant prices. And though
he demand greatly falls off the prices go up, an anomaly that
|ontradicts the law of supply and demand.

THE KEYNOTE SPEECH AT CHICAGO.

~BEVERIDGE, who delivered the keynote speech
~ to the Chicago convention yesterday, was at his best in
that address, which was the most powerful and lucid
of his public carer. 1t is evident in the speech that
aeyeridge had prepared it with extraordinary care, realizing
the occasion upon which it was to be delivered was an
|pochal one and that the words of the man who should first

Program viii Allow Progress
sives TO Oppose Taft Without
Losing Party Rights.

DIES MONIES, IOWA. July l0.-Pro-
gressive Republicans in Iowa who want
to support Theodore Roosevelt may do
so without losing their party rights.
That is the plan of the progressiyes to-
day who far outnumber the conserva-
tive delegates to the state convention.
An old resolution, known as the Bad
Man resolution, will be made part Of
the state Republican platform. Ii will
absolve all Republicans who refuse g.
support Taft A plank supporting
Roosevelt will also be a part Of the
document. according to plans Of the
leaders before the convention went
into session
The bad Man" plank is a compro-
mise The radicals at first planned a
resolution denouncing the Chicago
convention and asking that President
Taft withdraw from the race. The
conservatives secured the compromise.
Some Of them want to carry the fight
to the convention floor If they do the
progressives will retaliate with the
resolution demanding that the presi-
dent get out Of the race.
