Senators and representatives have
been in the habit of using, at public
expense of course, the highest pric-
ed paper and envelopes. The paper
has been of the best quality and has
been embossed at considerable ex-
pense. The joint committee on
printing has reported that this kind
OF material must give-:way to some
thing cheaper that will answer the
purpose just as well. This seems
like small thing, but the commit
tee says it will save $4,000 year.
There are numerous little extraya-
gances Of this character that have
crept into the administration of
public affairs that ought to be cut
out. In the aggregate they amount
to an enormous sum, no small part
Of which is pure graft.

Knob and Missionary Ridge. Capt.
C. D. Mitchell, veteran of the
Union army, and prosperous man
ufacturer of Chattanooga, Is chair
man of the committee having these
features in charge and is devoting
much time to the work. He has an
nounced that Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday have been set aside as
battlefield reunion days, and that
distinguished men will be secured to
give accounts of each battle, de-
scribing the movements Of troops

the results of each movement. 9th

Representative Towner is out in
bitter denunciation of the secret
methods employed by the democratic
committees at Washington to force
through legislation. He condemns
the majority for not permitting the
minority to know what is going on
and declares that the right of de-
bate in the committee room Is just
as essential to good legislation az
the right of debate upon the floor OF
either house. Yet the democratic
committees, having In charge the
most important legislation, hold Sc
cret meetings and do not let republi-
can members know when the meet
ings are to be held. The structures
Of Judge Towner are to the point
and they are timely. In this day
and age the people want to know
what their representatives in Wash
lngton are doing and the party that
resorts to secret meetings and
clandestine caucuses will be called
to an accounting. When the repre-
sentatives of the people undertake
to fool the people they invite sus-
picion. The committees shape legis-
lation and all members Of each and
every committee ought to have OPP
portunity to take part in framing
all measures entrusted to said COM
mittees. Even President Wilson, re-

WHY MEAT rs DEAR.

Burlington Hawk-Eye: Various
causes have been ascribed for the
high cost Of meat. The packers, the
trusts, the farmers, the tariff, the
retail dealers all have been indict-
ed, but the prosecution failed to con-
vict. The one simple, underlying
fact, generally overlooked, or ignor
ed, was the failure of supply to
equal the demand. Fondness for
veal reduced the number OF matured
cattle. The closing up Of cattle
ranches reduced the productive area
at the previous low cost. High pric-
ed land Inevitably meant higher
priced beef
Twelve years ago, there were b6
million head OF cattle in the United
States. On January 1, 1912, there
were only s5 million head. Mean-
VII Viz tiers sss Been an increase q
20 millions in our population.
Is it at all difficult to trace TO
the true source the cause OF the
present high cost of meat?

Is giving at least his tacit consent
to the reactionary secret committee
and caucus. Possibly as time goes
on the president will not appear in
SO favorable a light before the coun-
try as at present. He is certainly
not doing the right thing to the
people when he gives countenance
to such proceedings.
Samuel G. Blythe, the well known
writer, thinks there were more
strong men in the senate fifteen
years ago than at present. But that
is simply the result Of distance. Fif-
teen years ago it was held that the
men Of fifteen years previous were
superior to the men then. Fifteen
years hence the same theory will be
advanced. This is because the coun-
try, as rule, does not fully appre-
ciate great men until they pass from
the stage Of activity. Lincoln was
never appreciated as he is today.

Sumner, Chase. Seward, Conkling,

one day will look back at Cummins
and Kenyon as she now looks back
at Grimes, Kirkwood, Allison, Kas-
son and other men who have added
luster to her pages OF history. AS
the bitterness Of strife disappears
real greatness stands out freed from
the prejudices that surrounds it
while it is in the thick Of the fight.

any presidential candidate except

is not partisan matter. That lob
-bies have always existed has been
known, but it has not been known
that such reprehensible methods
were in vogue. The lobbyist is all
right, in his place. The big inter-
ests have right to be heard, but
the secret hearings, the clandestine
methods and the exercise Of undue
influence must cease. Publicity Is
the instrument, but just now the
democratic majority in congress is
throwing it's influence against pub
licity in certain public matters.
The farmers of Iowa are still won
dering how the democratic party is
going to cheaper the food supply Of
the millions in the eastern factories
without reducing the price of what
the agriculturists have to sell. 1t is
quite a problem, but possibly the
democratic party can solve it. Ey-
erybody is waiting to see. OF course
the Iowa farmer will not COM
plain at reduction in the
price of sugar. He will let
the Louisiana farmer sweat over
that, but when it comes to a reduc-
ton in the price of wheat, oats,
corn, hogs and cattle the 1owan will
look at it with distrust. It makes
some difference yet whose OK is gor-
ed.
