DIETZ LOGS WORTHLESS
Timber Over Which Battle Was
Fought Declared Of No Value.

Milwaukee, June 10.-A huge pile
of white pine logs, over which John
Dietz, the defender Of Cameron Dam,
fought civil war, costing several
lives, about which a play was written
and for which Dietz now is serving a
life term in the state penitentiary for
murder, has been declared worthless
by timber inspectors, who have re-
turned from Sawyer county after in
specting the lumber for the Weyer-
haeuser company. Ten years ago the
company had gathered the logs and
they were forced upon the Dietz farm
By backwateT. The bachwocds farm
er refused TO allow the drivers to re-
move them until he had been paid a
royalty on every log TO repay real
or fancied grievance against the lum-

CANNOT DODGE REsPoNsIBIL-
IIY.

The republican party in Illinois can
not dodge responsibility for the defeat
OF the initiative and referendum de-
manded by the people.
The bulk Of the representatives OF
every party represented in the Illinois
house, with the single exception OF the
republican party, supported the resolu-
tion.
The attitude many OF the republi-
cans struck in defense Of certain
amendments was a four-fush and a
subterfuge.
Can the republican party expect
while thus openly opposing progress
sive legislation to fool the progress
sives into believing that the Gone Old
Party wants to amalgamate along the
lines OF principle?
AS George Fitch says: "All that
separates the two parties now (repub-
lcan and progressively are the mutual
dislike OF their leaders, the mutual in
dignation over last summer, and their
political beliefs"
That's all.

he would look cunning in one with his

If lobbyists are TO be uniformed

the original rate regulation bills.
OF course Senator Smoot would be
uniformed. He has admitted personal
financial interest in sugar and wool

legislative agent of the Mormon
church. which is a fiscal as well as a
religious organization. Incidentally,
Shoots church is a partner of the
sugar trust.

per branch Of congress.
This is a significant thing, and one
which has escaped attention. Next to
socialism, singletax is the most radical
political doctrine gaining adherents in
America. AS most people know, it pro-
poses a single direct taxa tax on
land only, and not on the improve
ments on land. The singletaxer hopes
to discourage speculative holding of
land and to compel its development by
taxation, thus creating an increased
demand for labor and securing to the
working man a greater share Of the
wealth he produces.
Socialism and singletax aim at the
same thing-the emancipation of labor
from the exploitation of capital. Both
believe fundamentally in the common
ownership of all land and natural re-
sources. The singletaxer, who believes
that government should be as simple
as possible, thinks the land tax will
work the Millennium toward which
mankind is struggling. The socialist,
who recognizes the tendency of mod
ern government toward completely,
thinks the millennium should be com.
PEELED by law.
Both schools of political thought
have created a devotion among their
followers, such as no cause has arous.
ed since the Revolution. And because
man cannot be a believer in single
tax without being imbued with a pas
sionate zeal for the common good,
will set down the roster of the single
takers in congress.
Up to two years ago, there were
but two singletaxers in congress-
Representative, now senator, William
Hughes of Paterson n. j., and Senator
Owen of Oklahoma.
Senator Hughes is a proven friend
of the common people, and is now
President Wilson's closest friend il
congress.
! Senator Owen, though one of the
young men of the senate, has become
one of its leaders. He took a Ieauing
part in the recent reorganization
which wrested control from the reac
tionary element. He is chairman O
the important banking and currenc!
! committee, which will pass upon thu
/ banking reform measures. Senator
Owen is believer in the guarante,
of bank deposits, a proposition abhor
rent to Wall street and big bankin,
interests, but in mighty favor Will

BY OLSON GARDNER.

Especial Correspondence. Of The Argus)
Washington, June S.-The sugges-
ton that lobbyists be put into uniforms
OF bright green jackets, short trousers
and caps with jaunty peacock feathers
would, if carried out show uniforms
In some unexpected places.
Broadly speaking a lobbyist is
any person. representing a special in
terest as opposed to the interests of
the whole people. 1t is futile to try
TO discriminate between the man who
does this for a fee, contingent or reg
ular-the lobby lawyer-and the one
who does It for a consideration I've.
ceived in some other way. They are
all lobbyists.
Ex-senator John Thurston, killing
the loan shark bill for the Washington
pawnbrokers, is one kind of a lobby
list: Senator Con of West Virginia,
voting and talking for his own oil
wells, coal lands and cherished Pc
onage system of West Virginia. is an.
other kind of lobbyist. II is merely
an incident that the latter gets his
pay from the senatorial payroll.
Why be so hard on the little fellow
outside the door? He is only more
poorly paid and harder working lob
byist. His business suffers heavily
from the relentless competition fur
nished by the lobby workers inside the
senate and the house of representa-.
tives. He has TO button-hole mem
bers as they come out or go in. The
man inside can go and sit down be-
side a member and present the case
OF special privileges with comfort,
secrecy and dignity.
And is not an owner. lobbying for
his own, also a lobbyist? Take our
old friend, Henry T. Oxnard, one of
the most familiar of our third house
members. He was a pioneer promot-
er Of beet sugar factories and learned
his lessons as q lobbyist coming to
Washington TO protect the beet sugar
industry from the ravaging competi-
ton OF the sugar trust Having
learned the lesson and sold a major
!ty Of his best interests to the trust.
ne has gone on lobbying for the sugar

Before You start upon your way
A little fair advice I'll give;
Save something somehow day by day
Beyond the price you pay to live;
Make no assertion. no proud boast,
Which you're unable to support
And till YOU must give up the ghost
Keep your love letters out of court.
Be not insulted easily
When they that would insult are big;
From boorish practices be free,
Play life's game fairly; don't "renig;"
Work not too hard Yea do not turn
Too frequently to futile sport:
And this preCept he sure 10 learn:
Keep your love letters out of court.
Be not a solemn anchorite.
Be glad in look and word and thought;
'Tis just that you should claim delight
Where pleasure may be fairly sought;
Live so that when disasters fall
You may have strength TO hold the fort:
But this advice take first of all:
Keep your love letters out of court.
