BY ROGER w. BABSoN

A pOuC6maQ was TAKING JuS udLuSS
of men over twenty-one in a con-
gested district of a certain American
city. Almost every house in this dis
trict is inhabited by several families.
In time he came to house in which
this was not the case. 1t was oc-
cupied by single family.
The policeman entered, wearing
his helmet, as he had in other houses.
He demanded the names of the men
on the first floor. After being told
by the owner of the house that he
was the only man on the first floor,
he asked who occupied the second
floor. 81 do" said the owner. Il
have the whole house."
Instantly the demeanor of the Off
Ger changed. He snatched his he'll
met from his head with an 81 beg
your pardon, sir; l did not know you
had the whole house."
The officer respected riches and re-,
spect for riches is the trouble with
all of US.
Unfortunately the policeman is
not alone in this attitude. It does
not matter what city it was, for it
might have been any city. 1t does
not matter that it was policeman,
for it might have been almost any
man. 1t does not even matter that
it was a man, for it might have been
almost any woman in the United
States.
Respect for riches is one of the
national vices. 1t might be called
the national vice. Only a few Amer
leans drink to excess. A compare
lively small proportion of them use
cocaine or morphine, but the proper
ton WHICH respects riches rises to-
ward 100 per cent.
The great enemy of America is just
this deadening state of mind.

American people uncover their heads

make little difference whether
money kings are linked together by
secret understanding or not. Riches
will be the power in the land.
Financial legislation will not mat
ter much, either.
Respect for riches is the trouble
with everything.
The trouble with the politicians is
that they want to know what the
rich want.
The trouble with most newspapers
is that note from the rich man will
close their columns to the truth.
Most of the churches have eagerly
put themselves under obligations to
the rich.
The trouble with the colleges is
that they want property by gift or be-
quest, and, therefore, their presi-
dents follow the rich about like little
pet dogs.
The trouble with the courts is that
they adopt different attitude toward
the rich from that which they use to-
ward the poor. MaIefactors of no
wealth are to be found in jail.
The trouble with the poor is that
they are afraid of the rich.
And the trouble with the rich is
that they think they are the people.
So that is the trouble with all of US.
American life is paralyzed by re-
speet for riches, as life in some of
the older countries is paralyzed by
respect for birth or cast.
No man, no woman, no nation can
be free until respect for humanity
takes the place of respect for riches.
No man can be free until he exercises
respect for riches from his mind, as
an evil spirit is cast out.
Who so fights this evil spirit serves
his country and his fellow:beings.

The city should have the park,
so it could be kept in first class
condition and be used for public
meetings, picnics, etc. 1t would
be a first class place to hold the

ter Springs are unanimously in
favor of the city taking over the

Must be Done.

That there is going to be a big
mining camp out west and south
west of town is an assured fact
The development SO far made
proves beyond all question that
there is an immense ore bed out
there waiting to be taken out.
Men with capital are behind the
development, and there is none
of the old fashioned "grafter"
business in it.
All this development is going
to mean a great deal to this
country.
We were asked the other day
if it would do any good to Bax-
ter Springs. Here's the answer:
1t all depends on Baxter Springs,
and the people in Baxter Springs.
One of the first things necessary
to be done is to build a good road
out into the new mining section.
1t is going to take a good road
to haul mining supplies on, and
Baxter Springs must see to 1t
that a good road is made if the
supplies are furnished from or
through this town. Then, too,
if Baxter Springs expects the
people engaged in the mining
business to live here, a good road
is necessary. True it is that
railroad transportation will come
in time, but we must not wait for
that.
The Booster Club of Baxter
Springs should be called in spe-
cial session, and a committee ap-
pointed to work in conjunction
with the officials of Springvalley
township, the object being to
make good road as far west as
Blue Mound on the middle road.
Our idea is that the dirt road
should be put into first class con-
dition, and then let it be grav.
eled. Let the mayor OF Baxter
Springs proclaim a couple of
Good Roads" days, when all the
able bodied men of Baxter can
get OFT on the road, open up the
drains, and smooth the surface OF
the road. Let the farmers and
all others who will, put teams to
work and gravel the road. II
can be done if we will all work
together, and it can be done at a
small cash outlay if volunteers
will. come forward. And they
will. They do everywhere. In
fact volunteer work is making a
lot of good roads all over the
country.
We hope the president of the
Booster Club, the officials of
Springvalley township, and the
mayor of Baxter Springs will
meet for a conference on thia
matter at a very early date.
