TAFT's LAST VETO.

Chicago Tribune: President Tafts
veto of the "supdry civil bill" was
based on good law. good morals, and
good sense.
The bill contained the extraordinary
provision that no part of the appro-
priation for the enforcement of the
antitrust act should be used against
labor unions or farmers associations.
This provision is class legislation in
it's most vicious form.
The fundamental principle Of our
republic is that all men are born free
and equal Equality before the law Is
the first principle Of republican govern
ment The chief effort Of our public
activities is to retain for the many
political equality and to prevent spe-
cial privilege to any, be they bankers
or bakers, lawyers or laborers. farm.
ers or financiers.
The scheme to exempt labor organ.
|izations and farmers associations from
the equal operation Of the laws would
not be countenanced by the members
of the organizations themselves. md
should never have been inserted into
the law by the lobby controlled con-
gress.
Taft's last veto was his best veto.

terested. The Justification OF CRIME
however, is an entirely different mat
ter. The way that the yellow papers
determine to have hero or a heroine
at any cost, basing the attention OF
their readers on some sentimental con.
sideration (often invented), is, OF
course, deep-seated outrage. Every
woman concerned in a prominent case
is made TO appear beautiful. Editors
know that it is easier to play up the
sufferings of mother, or wife, or a
fiancee. and get an effect than 1t is to
get the effect from a complete and
truthful presentation of the proceed
ings. AS Merimee said: "Any novelist
can secure pathos by breaking a
poodle's leg" Some of our higher
class newspapers try to exclude crime
altogether A paper holding up stand:
ard-any disinterested, ideal standard
must do good, but we are inclined to
think that in the long run more good
can be accomplished by treating crime
properly than by refusing to treat 1t
at all.--Collier's.

Pills are harmless substitute for
medicine which a doctor gives when
he is up against 1t. AS this happens
about nine-tenths of the time, the use
of pills is increasing to such an extent
that they are prescribed for every
thing from broken rib to the cure
of corns.
When person has eaten something
which refuses to lie down, he goes to
doctor and has his pulse timed to
see if it exceeds sixty-five revolutions
per minute. If the pulse is running
on it's regular schedule and the doctor
is unable to find more than twelve or
fifteen degrees of fever, he tells the
patient that he is suffering from gen.
eral lassitude of the cerebral cavity
and puts up the same kind of pills
which are used for facial paralysis. He
also advises the patient to refrain
from eating anything until the follow
ing Wednesday, give up the tobacco
habit, drink tub Of hot water between
meals; and sleep with all of his feet
on soapstone. A person never
realizes the value Of pills until he has
been cured by this route.

ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO.

Herbert Kaufman says: One hun
dred years ago there wasn't a steam
engine, locomotive, gas Jet, an
electric bulb, a talking machine, a
steamship, a power crane, a blast
furnace, a rolling mill, or dynamo.
Surgery was a BARRIERS side line
-antiseptics were undreamt of-an'
aesthesia had not even crept into the
dictionary, and chemistry, engineering
and mechanics CROPPED in blindness.
The richest and most brilliantly
educated citizen of the republic didn't
know as much and enjoyed fewer com
forts than the day laborer in 1911.
Cities were unlighted-homes could
not be heated-there was no sewerage
nor ventilation nor sanitation.
Machinery had just started to turn
it's wheels--human and animal power
were the sole motive and creative
forces.
The man who suggested the mir.
acles of either, the telephone. the
telegraph, the wireless or the ocean
cable-the building of the aeroplane,
and the construction of the submarine
would have been hurried out of town.

CITY MUST SAFEGUARD ITS IN
~ VESTMENT,

Cities operating public utilities I'M
der municipal ownership assume an
added responsibility that they must
consider in the selection of city Of
f1cers. A great many cities make a
failure of municipal ownership and are
forced to go back to private ownership
when they are facing bankruptcy for
the sole reason that their municipal
plants are losing money. Many
cities have taken over public utility
plants and instead of saving the tax
payers money they have not only been
forced to raise the price to the con-
sumner above that charged by private
management, but have had to levy an
additional tax on every tax payer to
meet expenses.
Ottumwa took this chance when it
purchased the waterworks plant. Up
to date the Ottumwa plant has been a
success, but it would not have been a
success If it had not been put in COM
petent hands, and It will not remain a
success unless It is kept In competent
hands.
At the election this month the peo-
who will take charge Of the water
works plant during their term OF Of
flee. Under the commission plan all
the powers and duties of the water
works, park and library boards de-
volve upon the council.
It is of the highest Importance that
the voters select men who will have
the business ability, equipment and ex-
perience demanded for the manage
ment of the waterworks property and
the administration of the city's ordin-
ary affairs. The city has made big
investment in municipal ownership and
the tax payers must safeguard this in
vestment.

Of the United Presbyterian church.
The ladies Of the church catered. The
rooms were beautifully decorated in
the colors Of the two classes and fine
program was enjoyed. Plates were laid
for one hundred and forty. The event
has been looked forward to by the Sc

marks the beginning Of the several fes-
rivals which will be offered to the
class of 1918 before it ceases to be
