A species of economy that NAV
not prove at all popular with our
national lawmakers is advocated
by Senator Sheppard of Texas. AS
a measure Of retrenchment in
these times of reduced revenue.
the Texan proposes cut in the
salary of every Federal office
holder and employe drawing 500
a month OF more. The cut would
be in effect graduated income
tax. beginning at two per cent for
$1,000 salaries and scaling up to
IL per cent. on all salaries in ex-
cess of $4,000. While there r,ay
be many notable exceptions. most
Federal office holders. including
members of Congress, are motor
iously receiving more pay from
the government than their SER
vices would command from pri-
vate employers. We can see only
one good reason why Congress
should not accept Sheppard's &C.

Our neighbor. the Globe-Ga-
zette. says it admires President
Wilson. but that the people of the
northwest don't like the Democra-
tic tariff law. 1t should be more
specific and name the people who
don't like the new tariff law and
what particular items in it they
don't like. 1t would do our souls
good to know what man in the
northwest. outside of a few Re-
publican politicians. would ex-
change the present Underwood
tariff law for the old Aldrich-
Payne tariff law. which the Taft
administration gave us. Who is it
that wants the old Republican AL
drich-Payne tariff law back on
bur statute books?

The alacrity with which Aus
tria-Hungary fastened to inform
italy that She would make full re-
paration for the lives lost by the
explosion of floating mines in the
Adriatic forms an interesting con-
trast to the turbulence with which
she. bullied Servia a short time
back. There is. of course. annie
reasons for the difference in tone.
Ten weeks ago Austria-Hungary
was enjoying peace and pinned for
war. Now she is engaged in. but
not enjoying war. pines for peace.
Also Italy is bigger than Servia.
and has a much larger army than
that of the little Balkan state,
which. small as it is. has punished
Austria-Hungary a-plenty.

The mask of pretense was torn
from the face of the Republican
party last week when Floor Lead
er Mann came out fat-footed
against independence for the PHI
lippines today. tomorrow or ever.
Heretofore the Republicans have
pretended to favor Filipino indie
pendence at some dim and misty
date in the far future. That such
talk was merely pretense is con-
fessed in the present bald and UNI
blushing stand for eternal imper-
ialism. Fortunately for human Ii
berty. the party of imperialism is
no longer in position to under
mine the foundation stones of 90
Dular government.

1t is hard to find a man of any
party now who doesn't acknowl-
edge that he likes President Will
son and his policies. Every man
who does so should vote for the
candidates that will help to carry
out those policies. Vote for Pur-
cell and Bartholomew. who will
stand by the President in Con-
gress and not for their opponents,
who are doing all in their power
Ito hinder the President and his
policies.

MISS CLARK AND COTTON

Without disparagment OF her
elders Of the sterner sex. we think
Miss Genevieve Clark. daughter
of the Speaker of the House of
Representatives. shows the great
est wisdom yet displayed i'm the
multiplicity of schemes out forth
to help the cotton situation. And,
as most wise plans are, Miss
Clark's is exceedingly simple. She
IS heading a movement. which she
hopes will become nationwide,
for everybody to replenish his and
her supply of manufactured cot
ton goods. If every family would
simultaneously spend from one TO
ten dollars. according to its fl
nancial ability. for cotton goods,
supplying present and anticipat-
ing future needs they would ben
eft by present low prices and at
the same time create a demand
that would set the factory wheels
to turning and the raw material
moving from the fields and ware
houses to the factories.
Miss Clark's simple scheme. if
heartily. and nationally entered
into. is better than national loans
or restriction laws. both of which
are DANGEROUS step in paternal-
ism. and the latter an infringe
ment of liberties guaranteed by
the Constitution. Miss Clark ;
scheme is better even than the
buy a bale" movement, com
mendable as that is. because it is
out of the question for vast ma
!ority of people to participate in
it. But everybody can Join in Miss
Clark's movement. Push it along
and take your hat off to it's pro
moter. a young woman of infinite
common sense.

Congressman P. D. Norton of
this state says the Democrats
should be thankful for the Euro
pean war. That Republican Con-
gresham is mistaken. What the
Democrats and everybody else
should be thankful for is that we
have a president who kept us from
war with Mexico and whom we
can safely trust to keep us out of
the European war.

AMERICAN HIGHWAY ASSOClA'
TON.

AMERICAN HIGHWAY ASSOCIA'
TON.
That remarkable progress has been
made in the building OF good roads
throughout the United States during
the past few years is proven by data
recently obtained by the American
Highway Association and Don to be
published in the official Good ltoads
Year Book for 1915. 1t has been
found that more than $4,000 miles OF
surfaced roads have been construct
ed during 1913 and 1914 and that dur
ing the %ten-year period from 1904 TO
1914 more than $4,000 miles have
been completed. That this progress
has been really amazing may be un-
derstoOd from the fact that in 1904
there were only $4,000 miles OF sur
faced roads of all types in the United
States. That the movement is at
tanning momentum as it goes is prov
en- by the fact that while the average
mileage constructed per annum dur
ing the past ten years is $500 miles,
| the total completed for 1914 exceeded
$4,000 miles. The report will snow
that something like 10000 miles OF
highway have been completed with
the aid of state funds, of which over
5000, 100000 have been expended. Tie
state aid movement began in 1892
and has therefore continued for ~
years. Only recently has it gotten
we'll under way, as the results accom-
plished for 1918 and 1914 comprise a
total of 10000 miles of state and high
ways completed, or in two years TIME
one-third of the entire mileage con-
structed with the aid of state funds
has been completed.
Only six states now, out of 4 t'tal
of forty.eight, are without state high
way departments and thirty states
have granted actual money aid to the
building of roads. The Year Foo
which is the official reference publ
cation for all good roads information,
is a large, cloth bound volume, issued
early in each calendar year by the
American Highway Association.

MUTUAL AID ASSOCIATION

.!MUT UAI AID ASSOCIATION.
Minnesota is the home of a unique
association, to lbe known as the Asso-
citation of Patients and ex-Patients Of
the Minnesota State Sanitarium for
Consumptives. This is a new idea in
social service and probably the first
OF. its kind in the world.
No one will be eligible to member.

and has taken three months treat.
ment at the state sanatorium.
For some time past the patients Of
the state sanatorium at Walker have
been considering a proposal to organ
ize a society which could be of bene-
lit to them after discharge.
In letters received by patients from
some who have been patients it has
been learned that all is not easy for
them after discharge. Many leave
before they should because their mo-
ney does not hold out or because
their home counties do not feel dis,
posed to further assist them.
DR.. George William Beach, super
tntendent of the sanatorium, says
there are many one-time patients in
remote districts in need of a physi-
clan and a nurse. One OF the things
