Why She Was pespicahle.

II don't see why you should think
Mrs. Wibbersleigh doesn't know any
thing. You know she is a graduate
Of Vassar and is one of the leading
spirits in the Woman's club"
We'll, she's SO stuck-up. She
wants to put on so, without any rea-
son for it,
DO Sou think she's that kind? I'm
surprised. The last time l called on
her she told me that one of her rugs
which l supposed was a very costly
one was nothing but an imitation and
that they had only paid SIT for it."
1T isn't in that way so much. OF
course anybody can see that most of
the things in her house are cheap and
shoddy, but she's such a mandy PAM
by, selfish creature"
Why, really, you surprise me.
had supposed she was anything but
that. You know she works regularly
in one of the settlements, and it would
make you happy to see her there fond,
ling those poor little ragged children
the way she does and acting as if they
were just as dear to her as her own
are"
Gracious! l didn't suppose she
would even touch another woman g
child. She won't let hers play with
mine!"

A PLAIN PRESIDENT,

The democratic ways, or if you pre-
fer IL. the true Americ2nism, Of Pres!-
dent Wilson IS both admirable and
commendable. He is the most invet-
crate theatre.geer o; cur presidents.
His range for theatricals is large. too,
embracing vaudeville and moving pic
lures. IS we'll as the more legitimate
drao1a.
Theatre managers in Washington
Ike to have the president visit their
theatres and It has been the custom
for the occupant of the White house
to give notice of his visit. Mr. Wilson
has shattered this precedent He goes
with the crowd unannounced and like
the ordinary citizen he takes his
chance of securing a good" seat.
Instead Of occupying the presidents
toX' he prefers a seat in the audience
and even goes in peanut heaven" At
vaudeville and picture shows he Sc
lects a seat with the general audi
ence. At golf he usually plays with
a friend but is not averse to becom-
ing part of a foursome with members
Of the club whom he does not know.
Il WI be recalled that at the base
ball games the president has refused
to use the presidential box and has
sat with the fans in the ordinary
| seats.
He is greatly interested in the game
/ and roots" for the home team but
never fails to applaud good play
made by q visiting player. He is a
/ former football player and continues
/ his interest in that strenuous sport.
/ Unlike any president of recent times
he walks the streets Of Washington
accompanied only by secret service
man.
President Wilson's plainness will
become cumulative. 1t is high time.
Oficial life at the nations capital has
been too plainly patterned after Euro
/ pean centers.

platform at Baltimore, and that
platform denounced the republicans
for extravaganza and pledged the
democrats to economy, plank which
Mr.. Bailey takes seriously. Why then
is it necessary to raise rates in the
tariff bill to provide revenue as large
as has been available in the past? The
Pennsylvania congressman believes it
would be a good thing il the new
tariff bill should be drawn not to raise
so much revenue as the government
las been spending.
Il am sincerely of the belief that
il is of the first Importance that the
democrats should cut the federal rev.
enUes to the bone" he says. "They
have made the country believe them
regarding what they have said about
republican extravaganza, and the cOun-
try is going to hold them to a strict
account of their stewardship. If they
prove as wanton, as reckless, as ex-
travagent, as wasteful, as the republi-
cans were charged with having been,
then so much the worse for the demo
Gratis. They will find it no easy task
to convince the country that another
change is not desirable"

THE SCARCITY OF CATTLE.

At a meeting of meat packers in
Chicago last week the growing scare
fly of cattle in this country was de-
plored and methods proposed to edu-
cate farmers to raise more cattle.
This move on the part of the meat
packers is q good one, and it is to
be hoped IL will succeed in increas-
ing the supply of animals to meet the
demand.
But it cannot be claimed by the
meat packers that the decreasing sup
ply OF cattle IS the main cause Of the
high prices asked for meat. The prices
paid cattle raisers in Chicago and in
other markets Go not justify the exist
ing high cost OF meat to the consumers.
Besides, the packers did not show
! that the supply Of cattle does not
meet the demand for home consump-
ton. AS a lady who read the report
OF the packers convention remarked
! 20 the writer: IF the supply of cattle
: is as inadequate as the packers claim,
! why is so much of the product of the
product OF the cattle they slaughter
placed in cold storage and exported to
: other countries?"
This is a proper and important ques
ton. Why should cattle and other
: meat products be exported if the sup
: ply is not sufficient TO meet the home
Z demand?
Various reasons are advanced for
. the high cost of meat, but few con
. tend that it is because Of the lack OF
supply. The supply may not NEE;
the demands of the packers, but \
vii meet the demands OF the consum.
/ ers. and certainly exceeds the demands
4 OF consumers at present prices. There
. must be other reasons than scarcity OF

If they learn the art of chewing
even people whose food expense is only
threepence a day can make their meals
last long time. A chewer, according
to dietetic experts, is one who chews
all things so long as they have any
taste left in them. Gladstone, we are
told, used to take thirty-two bites to
every mouthful of food. The modern
school of chewers would regard this
as dangerously rapid eating. Il have

Mr.. Eustace Miles. "a banana has

TIT WEST FlNn nonni.

The evidence OF new life in the
west section OF the city. following the
adoption OF the numerous projects
that promise so much. not only for the
directly interested district west OF
Seventeenth street, but for the newly
annexed territory, are gratifying to
the people OF Rock Island IS a whole.
The plans for two substantial now
l..lsiness and fiat buildings, each to
contain q theatre, one on Eleventh
street and Twelfth avenue and the
other at Ninth street and Seventh ave
nue.. may be traceable TO two causes,
the permanent improvement Of streets
in that part OF the city and the prom
Use Of other advantages guaranteed in
the success of the propositions adopt
ed by the people in the special cleo
ton.
Thus is It shown that development
and general betterment follow public
improvements, and if the people in the
west end will take an inventory of
their property values q year hence
they will find an enhancement that
will make them sit up and take notice.

Capital Comment
BY CLYDE II. TAVENNER
congressman from tbs Fourteenth District.

the root of the tree of militarism. IN
no direction has the growth OF eXpen-
ditures been so riotous as in that OF
army and navy appropriations. Hun
dreds Of millions have been worse
than wasted On what they have called
preparedness; and now all the big
navy boomers and all the jingoes who
shout for more soldiers and more
guns and more Notifications are telling
us that we are farther from state
of preparedness than ever.
"'Many a mickle makes muckle,
but it was net of the little wastes
and extravagances 1 was thinking
when suggested to the democratic
leaders that in proposing to raise q
revenue equal to that which the re-
publicans have been wringing from the
people they were inviting proflgacy,
while failing to Reep faith with the
country. 1 was thinking Of staggering
sums which we are spending on bat
tleships and destroyers and fortitlca-
tons and other naval and military
items AS beginning l would be sat-
| isfied with some liberal slashing here;
and then it might be advisable to slash
more or less when we reach the rivers
and harbors. In a large measure the
river has ceased to be highway. Yet
gigantic schemes for river improve
ments are in contemplation, and they
will be urged on congress with all
possible insistence, On the plea that
the waterway will provide an effective
check on the railroad. This overlooks
the obvious fact that the railroad has
already put the waterway out of bus
mess and that it laughs at water com
petition.
81 don't pretend to know just how
much we are wasting. But l feel
sure that it must be more than we
would waste were we to reduce the
volume of revenue through a general
reduction in the burden of taxes. We
have been gouging too much money
out of the people. There would have
been a revolution long ago had we
gougel it out Of them by the rude
processes of direct taxation. By the
refined methods which are actually il
vogue we have done the job yer!
handsomely and without extortins

time 'overproduction,' and lack O
confidence
