If President Wilson doesn't watch
out he will presently be committed
not to the new freedom, about which
he wrote, but to the old slavery. Dis
trust is not the proper basis on which
to construct public policies. The in
come tax law is rather based on the
idea that men will seek to evade its
provisions. In Switzerland they cure
that tendency by subjecting all estates
to public scrutiny; man will know
that his memory will be despised and
his heirs made to suffer if he doesn't
come clean. But otherwise the state
trusts him. We find the same thing
in the administration currency bill
a suspicion of the men engaged in the
banking business. There has also
been sent out a threat of scrutiny to
any business that sees fit to cuTtail
its forces. We do not know if this
sort of thing is natural to the Presi-
dent; possibly he gets 1t from those
who think it the province of the gov
eminent to limit endeavor and activi-
ty. But it is sure to tell disastrously
if carried too far; no great policy was
ever built on distrust.-Waco Times

Earth slides continue to block the

engineers. The Isthmus of Panama is
a narrow strip connecting two large
bodies, North and South America. Va
rious predictions have been made as
TO the effect of severing this frail
thread binding them together. 1t
would be unfortunate if the slides
should continue until the surface was
again leveled and the wound healed.

LAST LINK IN THE ROAD

Marshall, MIMI July THE last
Minnesota link in the chain of road
from coast to coast has just been
forged by the county commissioners
here.
A hearing was granted in the court
room and 800 farmers attended. The
opposition argued that the county
board had no moral right to bond
the county for $4,000 for this road
without asking for vote of the peo-
pie; that it was a road for automO-
bile tourists and not road to bene-
fit farmers.
Advocates of the road explained
that the highway would bring many
tourists to Lyon county; would con-
meet Chicago and the Yellowstone
National Park, and after the road
was finished it would be kept up at
national expense. Good roads were
bound to come and if they did not
come to Lyon county they would go
elsewhere.
st. Paul, July THE state will
collect approximately Slo,UUO IN cOStS
from the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern railroads as a result of the
supreme court decision in the rate
case.
In order that this matter be prop
erly adjusted Attorney General Lyn-
don A. Smith today announced that
he has retained O'Brien, Young &
Stone of st. Paul to prepare the nee
essary papers.
While on the other hand the state
must pay the statutory costs OF the
Minneapolis and st. Louis, it is not
believed that these will be heavy and
the general opinion is that the net
profit to the state will approximate
| $4,000.

The Tennessee state food CON-
mission points out the defects in
the method Of marketing eggs.
Com missioner Brown estimates
that of 100000 worth Of eggs
produced by Tennessee annually,
from Is to 40 per cent. is a total
loss because Of bad handling.
He declares that in The summer
months two days. holding will
serve to spoil a good egg, and de-
clares that 1T is just as much a
violation of law for farmers to
sell, as fresh, eggs which have
been held too long as it is for the
dealer to sell storage eggs as
fresh" The Louisville Courier
Journal points out that iffarmers
would take advantage Of the par
eel post, there would be no neces.
sity for the holding Of eggs.

we have increased the producing

Before setting steel traps or

addition to regulating trapping,
prohibits killing with q gun fur

the new law are liable to violate
it unintentionallv, and thus be
subject to a heavy fine and i'm

Hooper's Triumph.

After five long, weary years of
patient perseverance for law and
order Governor Ben w. Hooper
has triumphed over the combin-
ed opposition Of the ablest and
most INSCRIPTIONS politicians Of
the age. He had not only to
combat the open and avowed en-
envy, but traitors in his own
ranks-external foes and inter.
nal opposition.
The compact, organized liquor
interests of the nation heaped
upon him every agency known to
political chicanery and that,
too, backed by unlimited fnan-
cial resources. Abuse, calum.
dy, vituperation, misrepresenta-
ton and SANDER have beenpour-
ed upon his head by the Shiny
tongues of the vilest mouths of
the cutters and slums Of the
state.
False friends have tried to be-
guile him, traitorous partisans
have tried to betray him, but
Governor Hooper has never fal.
tered, wavered, nor wearied.
His hand has remained steadfast.
~ at the throttle and his eve on
the rail through every moment
Of these eventful five years.
Where others would have hes.
I.itated, he pressed forward.
Where others would have
yielded, he stood as firm as Gi.
braltar.
Where others would have hes.
itated, he showed his determine
ton.
Governor Hooper was elected
upon a pledge Of law enforce
ment and his friends have not
been able to persuade him nol
his enemies tc drive him from
that position.
His firm adherences to those
principles; his enthusiastic ear.
nestness; his unanswerable log.
ic; his moral courage, heroic eff.
forts and inspiring leadership
stirred the people throughout the
length and breadth Of the state
to demand that their servants
