THE ALDERMEN ARE WALKING
ON SOFT-SHELLED EGGS
The aldermen give the impression
of men walking on eggs in the way
they are handling the proposed tele-
phone merger. -
Until a few organizations like the
Progressive Club, the Telephone
Users Assn. and the Women's Party
of Cook County got on their trail it
looked like clear sailing, the gobbling
of the Automatic by the telephone
trust.
The wheels were all creased for
the sending through of the merger,
even though the city had failed in its
effort to pass the buck to Atty.-Gen..
Ferry has grabbed a sinecure
But something in the attitude of a
suddenly-awakened public warned
them. A hurried secret meeting was
held. The gas, oil and electric light
committee, which had the proposed
merger in their charge, arranged to
delay the game by tieing up on an
electric light matter.
Then the Progressive Club in
rousing meeting tore the cloak from
the deal. They determined to CO.
operate with various clubs to expose
the proposed merger from platforms
throughout the city.
A thousand petitions gathered by
the Telephone Users Assn. was de-
livered to Aid. Sits, of the gas, oil
and electric light committee. He &C
knowledged their receipt.
During this period of much talk
about the telephone it might be in
teresting to discover what has be-
come of the job, or the proposed job,
of telephone expert.
The city council on May 26th pass
ed an ordinance calling for the crea-
ton of telephone commissioner,
pending the approval of City Elec-
trician Ray Palmer. The salary was

THE BEANS ARE ABOUT TO BE
SPILLED IN THE H.-H. CAMP!
Something has gone amiss in the
ranks of the Reconsideration crowd.
Rumor has it that several of the
leaders of the faction have grown
tired of Andy Lawrence and he is
about to be. kicked out And with
him will fall County Judge John e.
Owens, whom it is said now consti-
tutes Andy's remaining political
power.
All signs point to Congressman
SABBATH as Andy's successor, but as
the voting machine helped cause the
fall of Andy so might the garbage
mess help cause the fall of SABBATH.
SABBATH is very anxious to have his
brother, Joe, now Municipal Court
Judge, receive the nomination for
county judge to succeed John E.
Owens
The SABBATH faction has been max
ing eyes at the Sullivan crowd lately
in an effort to get Rogers aid in put
ting the skids under Owens. Roger,
however, loves SABBATH about as much
as he loves Andy Lawrence. And, in
addition, he has little candidate all
his own.
Meanwhile Lawrence doesn't fit
around the Harrison quarters since
he returned from California after the
smoke from the voting machine
probe had cleared away.

Parcels Post Popular.

The first month of the opera
ton of the parcels post law has
shown that the people like it.
The Kansas City postofice took
in $4,000 of parcels post bust
ness the first two weeks, nearly
a thousand dollars a day, with
out putting on extra help. Even
the express companies claim that
their business has increased.
Some one has remarked. however,
Ethat it is not believed that the
express companies secretly, in
stigated the passage of the law,
says Missouri and Kansas Far
mer.
Outside the express companies
the country merchants put up
the greatest opposition to the
law. 1t was feared by them that
the mail order houses would, by
using the parcels post, make fur
Their encroachmeuts on their bus

ants are aiding their business by
the use of the parcels post. An
Iowa retailer in a small town ad-
vertises that the postoffice de-
partment has put at his service
five delivery wagons which en-
able him to extend. free delivery
service for anything needed be-
tween regular visits at his store.
The advertisement makes the
reasonable suggestion that heavy
articles could not economically
be delivered by parcels post, but
from other lines the postage will
be prepaid to the farmers door.
This practically gives farmers
the same advantages of delivery
of small packages from the store
that are now enjoyed by the resi-
dents of the cities aud towns.
Doubtless this custom will be-
come general and will greatly
increase the trade of the local
merchant. In a few years he
will wonder why he put up such
opposition to the parcels post.

How Reduce Cost
Of Living.

The three main factors in the
present high cost of living are
the relative decrease in food pro-
duction, the great cost of get
ting food from the producer to
the consumer and the high STAN
dard of living to which we have
become accustomed. The RENE
dies for the high cost of living
should be an increased produc-
ton of foodstuffs and a lesseuing
of the expense in getting food
from the producer to the consum-
er. Few people would be willing
to lower the standard OF living
to make living cost less.
1t has been pointed out that
forty years ago each farmer had
to produce food for one other
man and that now he must pro-
duce food for two other men.
That is another way of saying
that forty years ago half of the
population we're engaged in far
ming and now one-third of the
people are farming. Up to ten
or fifteen years ago farming was
an improbable occupation. 1t
is now a money-making business.
The best paying business OF to-
day, and the one that offers the
greatest possibilities for the tu'
ture, is the production of food on
farms.
Farmers have a twO-fold re-
sponsibility in the lowing OF the
cost of living; the increase in the
yield per acre and the mainten'
auce of soil fertility. Any in
creased yields at the expense Of
soil exhaustion is a short-lived
policy. The soil needs not slim
ulation to produce temporarily
large yields. 1t needs perman'
ent enrichment and a fertility
that will increase with use. Eu'
ropean agriculture shows that
greater soil fertility and increas'
ed production may 60 hand IN
hand. Our poor yields of crops
and depletion of the soil should
be overcome by proper methods
and practices, and the fOunda'
tions thus laid for permanent
agriculture.
Producers are awakening t.
the necessity of better systern'
for marketing their crops. Al
ready considerable progress IL
made. Fruit growers assOcia'
tions have made possible the
profitable marketing of their
crops. In the Northwest the
farmers have united in a success

HUNDRED HEBREW
GROCERS file PROTEST.
President Simon Gordon, Of Orsaniza-
tion, Presents Short-weight
S.. Bread Resolutions.
ARGUMENT FOR STANDARIZING

A formal presentation of the protest
of the Capital Retail Grocers' Protec-
tive Association. an organization OF
some 600 Hebrew grocers of the District.
on the variance in bread weights was
made to the Commissioners of the Dis
trict yesterday. when the president of
the association, Simon Gordon. laid the
resolutions recently passed by the mem-
bers before the Superintendent of
Weights and Measures and Markets,
William c. Haskell, who had been d.
rected by Commissioner John A. John
ston to receive the protest.
In addition to the protest, Mr.. Gordon
submitted data relative TO the weight of
some 500 loaves of bread. the product of
different local bakers. which he had for
the past ten days taken special care to
weigh each day.
The result of this comparison is said
to be extremely interesting and indicates
there is a pronounced variance in the
size OF loaves, and this is one OF the
best arguments for standardizing the
baked bread loaf. On some five-cent
loaves there was noted a decrease of
almost a quarter of a pound in the
weight.
Signs are still numerous around town
which read % Ffve-cent Loaves of Bread
for 10 cents" and the output of the -
for 10' kind continues to be forced, for
many are said to sell it at cents a
