Washington, May 23.-Once more
the poor old consumer has to dig down
into his pocket and pay tribute to a
trust This time it is the coal trust,
and the excuse given for this trusts
latest scheme TO gouge a few extra
dollars out of the public is the fact
that the coal miners went on a strike
There is no evidence that the coal
strike, which was not, strictly speak
ing, a strike, cost the trust anything
except the profit it would have made
had the men not laid down their tools
pending a readjustment of their con
tracts. But with this weak excuse for
a basis, the trust had decreed that
there shall be no usual spring discount
Il also is announced that the usualsum-
mer discount viii not be allowed.
Thus the consumer pays not only
the loss in profits suffered by the
trust during the strike" but he also
pays for the slightly increased cost
of mining, due TO the small raise in
| pay granted the miners.
Does anybody pay the miner for the
money he lost in wages during the
! lay-off? Not that anybody knows Of

The way Colonel Roosevelt gathered
up the delegates in the Ohio primaries
was certainly very discourteous to
Judge Taft, who is a resident of that
state. II seems TO indicate that the
people Of Ohio would rather have noise
than avoirdupois, that they would
rather have for president a strenuous
man who shoots lions and tigers than
a fat man who knocks golf balls.
There is no accounting for taste, and
the people OF Ohio are entitled TO their

PERT PARAGRAPHS.

UNLESS you have a superstition in
the morning that you are about to
hand out a pretty stiff days work you
are not likely to be of much account
during the day.
We sometimes welcome a humbug.
but we are rather hard on him if he
doesn't hum in tune with our partic-
ular bug.
A man who is a hard drinker can't
occupy soft place very long.
The pessimist works not for fame
nor honor nor gold. but because he
sees the poorhouse looming in the mid
die distance.
One woman says that spring house
cleaning lacks zest when her husband
is away because she needs the stimula-
ton of all his old housekeeping chest
nuts.
Should you ever suspect that gold
bricks sometimes take the form OF
suburban lots and fruit farms in No
where?
Generally the man who bores us tc
death is the one who is going out Of
his way to do Us, in his opinion, dis
tnctive favor.
She is a lucky woman who can save
enough from the months grocery bill
to buy the baby a new bonnet
Sometimes a careless man will settl
up after he has been called down hard
Getting even with the fellow tina
has tried to injure you costs more thai
it comes to. even if it costs nothing.

quences of the strike which might be
pointed out prove how much of the
nature Of a necessity newspapers are
to the commercial interests of a city,
and without them business and sports
would languish.
1t is good for the freedom Of the
press that this is. No advertiser will
be able TO dictate the policy of news
paper by threat of withdrawal of his
patronage. The newspaper can, if it
has to. better get along without him
than he can get along without the
newspaper

Variety.

II life were always sunny
And it were always May
We should not quite appreciate.
/ fear, a pleasant day.
1t takes a dash of winter,
A little of the sting.
To make us thoroughly enjoy
The coming of the spring.
II we had all the money
That any one could spend
The 10Y we have in buying
Would very shortly end.
But If we can be busted
For just a week or so
Then we can fondle softly
The dollar that We blow.
If we had all the honors.
If we were truly great.
] fear that mere existence
would be a humdrum state.
But when from out the lowly
We nerve ourselves to climb
In going up the ladder
We have a bully time.
We need the disappointments.
We need the frigid zone.
We need at times a setback.
To sort of give US tone.
We'd yearn for useful labor
If We could always play
So we would not be happy
If it were always May.
