Owing to the system that Clerk
Dunlap has introduced into the Office
The Tribune was able to get the
above data in very few minutes. Mr.
Dunlap is getting his Office into such
shape that taxpayer can ascertain
anything in the Office in very few
minutes. He has opened up books
which enable him to keep an exact
check on the county tax collector, a
fund account which does the same for
the city treasurer and departmental
ledger which shows the status of APP
preparations made for every depart
ment of the city. Considerable addi-
tional work was required in order to
do this. Mr.. Dunlap has purchased
the required books and performed the
additional labor and at the same time
kept within the appropriation for his
Office. The appropriation for the city
clerk was $1,000 per year or $1,000 Is
per month. Mr.. Dunlap has conduct
ed the Office at an expense of $l49.27
per month.

In an advertisement recently the
Chicago Tribune said that sixty mil

in this country. AS the bulk of that
goes to newspapers, it can easily be
understood what powerful influence

Grape-Nuts Post of Battle Creek,
who has made millions by advertising
and getting folks to feed on his
breakfast food and patent-medicine
substitute for coffee, has bullied the
newspapers whenever possible. He
withdrew his advertising from one
group of newspapers because they
are friendly to organized labor.
Repeatedly he has used his adver-
tising space in newspapers to assail
labor. unions. Post would write edi-
torials attacking unionism, and timid
newspapers that didn't want to lose
his business would let him rave in
their columns. .-
1t wasn't long ago that George P.

started campaign of publicity to get
manufacturers to quit advertising in
the Chicago Tribune, because, as

Ill suggesting ludL COuSFSSS pIO-
hibit one cent newspapers because
selling newspaper for less than it
costs places it more or less at the
mercy of business, the. Seattle Sun
states a part truth, but provides the
wrong remedy.
We have become so accustomed to
regulating everything by law, that
most people think there ought to be
a law" to cover every little thing that
appears to be wrong in the universe. =,
However, the subject is one the
people might well study. AS it is, the
press in this country has become
commercialized. We boast of a free
press, and there is no such thing
outside of The Day Book.
There are feIt great editors be-
cause there are few opportunities for
editors to show greatness. Too many
newspapers arc managed from the
business Office by the man who takes
in the cash of the advertisers,
The Day Book is the only daily
newspaper in Chicago that makes a
profit on. white paper. Every other
paper loses money on every issue
printed, so far as the cost and selling
price of white paper is concerned.
l figured it out one day and esti-
mated that the Chicago Daily News
must lose at last $700 a day on white
paper, although list net profit alto
gether is said to be not much short of
a million year.
What it loses on white paper is
made up. from advertising receipts
Of course, the readers pay for this
in the end, even if they do get the
paper for cent. They pay it to the
merchant who advertises. A large
proportion of the profit on all sales
in the Chicago department stores

A state Rights EEti0guIsHer.

Seldom do we hear the question of state rights raised when it is propOs- ed that the federal government shall go into a state and spend money The passing of the good roads bill in the house and every river and harbor bill shows that state lines do not figure when it comes to taking money from the federal treasury. have just no- ticed the introduction of a bill appro- prlating $lCu0,U00, to be used for en- Couragiug rural sanitation. That comes pretty near entering upon the police powers of a state, but with any such appropriation as that attached to it we will probably never hear the state rights slogan raised.

Townsend Was Relieved,

Edward W. Townsend, who repre- sents a New Jersey district, showed relief in every way the other day, and in reply to a question as to whether somebody had left him a fortune he said:
 No, not just that but I have just settled a postofice fight in my district that has been hanging on for more than a year. It has been a fierce one, too. and 1t might just as well have been settled a year ago without all of the trouble that We have had over it."
 That is one trouble about the office business. Bitter contests arise between individuals. especially in the selection of postmasters. Nearly every postof- fee fight leaves a congressman weaker than he was before.
 Talk Versus BaII Game.
 Lecturing the senate on account of the empty seats. Senator McCumber remarked that sixty per cent of the senate is out at the ball game And then some occupant of the gallery was kind enough 10 say that the ball game was a mighty sight more entertaining tban most of the talk in the senate.
 Same Old Fight,
 If history does not repeat itself at least congress does. We are just as sure to have the same old fight on the national forest reserves every time the agricultural bill is considered as we are to have a session of congress. There was little variation this year because the senatorial contest in Penn sylYauia was introduced, and that was because Clifford Pinch0t, who is our most noted forestry man, is a candi- date for the senate in Pennsylvania.
 There is also a division in the minds of western men as to forest conditions. Some think that they work a great hardship. and others believe that a great benefit will be the ultimate re suit,

Prohibition To Strong.

Tint prohibition has strong support in the house of representatives there can be no question. A few years ago when a drastic measure controlling uuuor dealing was before the house, it took the finest kind of work and fine manipulation to prevent a direct vote in favor of prohibition for the District of Columbia, and if such vote had been taken 1t was almost sure that 1t would have carried in the house of rep rcsentutives and probably tn the sen ate.
 Of course national prohibition is an- other thing, and members would hesi- tate to vote for a national measure, al- though they would be willing to try 1t on the city of Washington. Besides, 1t requires a twO-thlrds vote to pass the Uobson resolution, and 1t iB doubtful if any such majority could be obtained

RszdY Ea- Service.

In case co war with Mexico there k not the sIghtcs, doubt about getting sufficient officers and men. Already there have been numerous tenders of services by men who want to have commissions m the army if there is war. There has been some criticism by senators about men asking for com missions, and the suggestion has been made that there is a rank and file as well as commissions in the army. However, there seems to he no Qugs- ton about men to enlist and make up the rank and liIe as well as those who would hold commissions. There are also a lot of men seeking service in the navy us officers. Many who have had little sea experience think that they would make good naval oui- cers and are offering their services to the navy.
 In this connection it is interesting to Lote that the graduating class at the Naval academy are putting in their acquisitions to be assigned tO ships that are likely to be in service They want to get into 1t as soon as they get out of the academy.

Lane Could Not Sec lt.

During discussion of the agricultural appropriation bill southern men made an earnest plea for the expenditure of money to encourage certain forms of agriculture in the south that have here t9rore been neglected. Senator Rams dell of Louisiana had been making an argument showing that the farmers of the south were now beginning to raise products which heretofore they had purchased in the north and west
 Then Senator Lane of Oregon broke in. saying: We are being asked to fur ujsb the people of the south money with which to put ourselves out of business. They are going to use the money to raise all these things which they now buy of us. I do not see any thing profitable In that kind of a trade"
 'I thought the senator was a patriOt," was the comment of Ransdell.
 Boosting Director Harris.
 In a recent speech in the house Tom HeGin of Alabama paid a great trib- ute to William J. Harris, director of the census. He told all about the good work that Harris has been doing at the head of the census bureau, and his statements brought out frequent ap- Dlause from the members because they also believed that Harris Is doing good work. Incidentally, this boost of the director had some political significance, as Harris is a candidate for Governor of Georgia,

Members Must Record Votes on Suffrage and Prohibition
BOTH HAVE SLIM CHANGES,
Judiciary Committee, Tired of Being
 Termed a "Graveyard," Reported
 Resolutions, Thus Placing Burden Of Rejecting or Accepting Two Vital Measures on Every Member of Houso,
By ARTHUR W. DUNN.

Washington, May 5v.-[speciaLl- Many members of congress are much disturbed on account of the agitation which has followed the action of the judiciary committee in reporting the prohibition and woman suffrage amendments. It is still something Of a mystery why the judiciary commit tee took that action, but 1t may be eI- plaiued that the members became weary of the constant pressure that was put upon them.
 Every member was beset by prOhibl- tiouists to take some action which would afford the house an opportunity to pass upon the HobsOn resolution. The woman sunraglsts were equally in- sistcnt that their measure should not be Smothered
 The judiciary committee became tired of being called the graveyard" of an legislation of this character, and the members determined to relieve themselves individually of the pressure and let it spread over the entire house.
 Keeping Them Together.
 It is altogether likely that in case the committee on rules of the house shall decide to bring in a rule allow ing the house to consider and vote upon tue prohibition resolution, that a simi- lar action will have to be taken on the suffrage resolution. The sutfraglsts have been strong enough to keep their measure abreast of the prohibition res oluuou and the prohibitionlsts have been SC earnest that they have been willing to join hands with the sutra- gistS in order to promote federal ac- tlou on their measure.
 The Democratic caucus has decided against considering woman suffrage legislation at thIs session, and the com mi,tee on rules has followed the in- strucdous of tue caucus and refused to report any measure relating to sut- fragc. But the caucus has taken no such action regarding prohibition and the committee on rules will be at Nb- crty to provide a day for considering prohibition. But they will not be able to do that without a strong fight on the part of the suffragists.

THEY WERE VERY DEAR FRIENDS AND STARTED ON LEGAL CA
 REERS TOGETHER.

Springfield, H., Jan. 30.-The body of Shelby M. Cullom was brought here today and tonight lies in the library of the home of Mrs. Chas. Ridgeley. Only intimate friends and relatives were admitted to the house tonight but tomorrow at noon the body will be taken to the capital where it will lie in state.
 Among the oIder men who met the train bearing Senator Culloms body were men who recalled the days when Abraham Lincoln and Shelby Cullom, with their scant supply of law books, attended court together here Among the pioneers the two names are inseparable in talking of the old days.
 Forty-nine years ago MT. Cullom was at the station when train on the same road brought his own body today arrived with that of Abraham Lincoln. Sunday his funeral pro- cession will traveI much the same road to Oakridge cemetery, and the two will lie in graves not far apart.
 Judge J. Otis Humphrey, in charge of the funeral arrangements, and whc is expected to be executor of the Cullom will, was quoted today as es timating the late senator's estate at not more than $50,000. .
