THE HIGH COST OF LIVING

The Herald, possibly to-be different
from the other papers, does not take
much stock in the present political
bug-a-boo the High Cost of Living"
In fact it is rather glad that the
cost of living is high, for that means
high prices and high prices always
spells prosperity. Low prices and
hard times are synonymous terms.
The first initiatory step towards de-
preston, hard times and panic is a
depreciation in values. High Cost
Of Living" means high prices for the
commodities produced on the farm
and high wages for working men. In
order to secure lower cost Of living
values must depreciate and the first
things to drop will be wages and the
price of agricultural products and
however much the price of other
commodities may be reduced the re-
duction in wages and agricultural
products, reductions which affect
more people adversely than all other
classes combined, will more than keep
pace with them.
In order to reduce living cost you
you must increase the purchasing
power of dollar. If the purchasing
price of dollar is doubled and by the
same process the dollar is made three
times harder to obtain, we have
lost rather than gained by the tran
saction.
Reduction in living cost is a mighty
fascinating campaign slogan and
demagogues in all political parties
have worked it to the limit.
Seventy-five per cent of the great
army of buyers in the United States
are farmers or men working for mod
crate wages. The unparalleled pros
perity of this country during the last
20 years, taken as a whole is due to
the fact that during this time this
great army of industrials have had
more dollars to spend than they ever
had before in the history of the coun-
try. If in reducing the cost of living
you reduce the number of dollars that
this mighty army of buyers can OBJ
tain the last condition will be worse
than the first. ..-
Any legislation reducing the cost of
living expense of the farmer and
wage-worker will prove detrimental
to the welfare of the country.

of this day and generation and the
crying need of reform, and they are
all proceeding in the same impossible
way to bring about reformation. They
want to reform men in punches, they
want to reform men by law and they
demand consideration for reforming.
They forget that reformation is an
individual and not collective mat
ter. Men cannot be reformed in
crowds. Any attempt at bunch re-
forming always has and always will
result in failure Men cannot be re-
formed by law; they may be deferred
from active evil doing by fear of the
laws penalties, but all the laws that
have ever been enacted since the
world began and all the laws that
ever will be enacted as long as the
world stands, never have and never
can remove from the minds of men
the desire to do evil if they are SO in
clined. Whenever man refrains
from wrong-doing through fear of the
law he is not reformed; he is only
scared. '-.-
Whenever a man stands in public
places and spouts forth the need of
reform for a consideration, either in
the form of social distinction, political
preferment or cash he is not re-
former, but only a cheap commercial
izer of holy things. Reform does not
consist in sensationally denouncing
existing evils with hands outstretehed
for a consideration, but in patiently
pointing out the way of righteousness
without hope of reward. ..
Those who stand in the greatest
need of reformation are the self-styled
reformers of the present time. They
should begin by reforming themselves.
They should remember that the only
true doctrine of reform was laid down
centuries and centuries ago and : it
was of divine, and not human origin,
and was in substance that if each
man would reform himself the world
would be reformed in day; that
man should do right because it is
right and not through fear of punish
ment for wrong-doing.
The reformer who laid down this
doctrine for mans guidance lived in
the times of greatest political tyranny
the world has ever known, yet he
never made political speech against
reigning powers or existing laws, but
devoted himself to pointing mans
duty to his fellow man, well knowing
that if men did right one toward an
other tyranny could not exist.
In period of the worlds greatest
social profligacy he did not denounce
the social evils of his day, but quiet
ly and humbly taught the doctrine. of
pure life, for full we'll he knew that
if mems hearts and thoughts were
pure, impure social conditions could
not exist, for they would have moth
ing upon which to feed. .
Living amidst the most hideous de-
bauchery and the grossest intemper-
ance he did not go Summing in the
haunts of sin that he might shock
his hearers with hot air sermons of

ously against the evils of intemper-
.ance for paid admissions, but, with
out money and without price, patient
ly pointed out the true way Of true
life, knowing If men and women
walked therein debauchery and in
temperance would trouble the world
no more forever. >s-~.

ELECTRIC GLOBES

more globes TO the concern which
furnishes the globes.
The suggestion was adopted, but 1t
was learned later that the globes,
after they wear out, are Of little use.
The uperintendent of the electrical
plant said that. He knows.
The only use to which the worn
out globes may be placed is to give
them to the children Of the city to
play with, said a man in the electrical
business. The glass in the globes Is
about all the worth the city may re-
ceive The glass saves the platinum

and 1t was not the city electrician.

facture it's own globes. There are
several glass factories here.
The globes contain lot OF glass.
