impossible. If others can be cured

we are interested in seeing them take the
best medicine there is for their particular
trouble. We don t recommend 'cure-alls,'

Sounds natural: "W E. Sharon, of
Virginia City, left the other day for
San Francisco on visit of a few
days" But how ridiculous! Sharon
lives in San Francisco, or Piedmont,
and his only business in Nevada is to
draw his salary as Superintendent of
a couple of Comstock mines, and look
after Newland's political fences The
item about his visit to the State
would read better as follows: "W. E.
Sharon is a visitor from California for
a few days, looking after his brother
in-law's political interests"

Before the last general election the
people were complaining about the ex-
pensive Republican administration.
The Democrats promised to reduce
expenses and pull the Ship of State
off the rocks. The entire machinery
fell into the hands of the Democrats
at the last election and the estimates
now submitted by the Democratic gov
eminent amount to ST, 108, 681 ,777.02-
or $34,000,000 more than the wasteful
Republicans asked for for the past
fiscal year.

MODERN PRINTER BEST OF
CITIZENS.

1t was only little news item, less
than "stickful,' but the printer who
set it on the machine, the proofreader
who read it for errors, the galley boy
who put in the corrected lines ahd the
makeup man who put it in the form
must have all felt little bit of pride
as they handled it, 1t was from Joliet,
ILL.,, the scene of the States largest
penitentiary, where 200 men are con-
fined, and it said that in all that body
not single printer could be found,
and SO the first number of the new
paper, the Prison Post, had to be set
by an outside printer, says the St.
Louis Globe-Democrat. The printing
craft is one of the largest in numbers
of the skilled trades, yet it is not
supplying its quota to the penitentia-
ries of the country. And the reason
for this is the very fact that it is a
trade requiring high skill of the most
intelligent sort, including high
sense of responsibility, holding up a
standard to which the shiftless, in
competent, irresponsible and vicious
can not measure. A process OF elimi-
nation has been going on which has
retained in it the sobered, the indus
trious and the reliable almost to the
exclusion of those who are not, and
it is not the sober, industrious and re-
liable who get into penitentiaries.
But it was not always thus in the
printing trade, particularly in the
newspaper portion of it. Before type
setting machines were invented, when
type was set by hand and lack of in
dividual speed could be compensated
for by putting on more cases" and
when there was a substitute ready to
take the case of any man who was al
coholically indisposed, it did not so
much matter whether a typesetter was
either sober or reliable. Those were
the days when tramp printers abound
II
and worked as substitutes for few
days and then passed on. With the
coming of machines costing $4,000
each, sobriety and reliability on the
part of printers became an economic
necessity. Also the need to work the
plant at top speed and highest capaci-
IL. Il
the modern paper, left no room for
the tramp, the alchoholic or the shift
less The print, had to make good as
an individual.
In a generation this has so com
pletely changed the pesonnel an dthe
spirit of the printing Office that com
bined with the high intelligence and
good education necessary for effective
work, not alone the compositors, but
the craftmen in al branches of the
printing business, have reached such
a general high average of character as
is indicated by this absence of sin
gle one of them from the 1900 men in
Joliet 1t is pleasant to say this about
them, because there still fingers in
the public mind some of the impress
sions put there by the bibulous print
ers of former days, the days of print
ers' milk" that looked dark under the
foam and was not carried in sanitary
bottles as it is now, when at lunch
time a printing office has much the
aspect of dairy counter. 1t is not
alone the printing trade that has been
elevated by modern industrial condi-
tons requiring sobriety. intelligence
and reliability on the part of workers,
but it is the highest and most CON
spicuous example.

EQUAL FRANCHISE PROGRESS
DR.. Shaw on Tax-Paying and
Militancy.


No one could follow the interesting
discussion carried on through the
press within the past few weeks in
regard to my attitude in refusing to
assist the government to levy per
sonal tax upon me, without being i'm
pressed by the careless manner in
which people read into an article their
own thoughts rather than those of the
writer.
My perfectly calm and absolutely
non-resistant statement that | would
not assist the government of Pennsyl
vania to impose an unjust tax upon me
while it violated the fundamental prin
ciple of the national Constitution,
which guarantees to every State re
publican form of government, which
places the source of power in the
people, as a whole, and not in any
segregated or self-appointed fraction
of the people; which forbids any State
to create special privileges, or the de
NAL of equal rights to any citizen.
So long as the State of Pennsylvania
by my disfranchisement, and that OF
all women repudiates the fundamental
law, | believe it is treason against the
national government to voluntarily
aid it in this violating the supreme
law of the land"
There was no word in my statement
which could be construed into re
fusal to pay any or every tax that Is
imposed. upon me. | have always paic
my taxes, but never without protest
ing against the tyrrany and injustice
of it. | will do SO again, but refused
to aid the government to impose .
personal tax by making out specific
bill OF my possessions, in order to as
sist to impose this tax upon me.
The law upon this subject is per
fectly clear, even though unjust 1t
states that, if the person refuses to
fill out the bill, the Assessor will do
So In declining | violated no law but

militancy involved, it is the militancy
of the government, not mine.
am, and always have been, un-
aterably opposed to militancy, be
lieving that nothing of permanent
value has ever been secured by it
which could not have been more easily |
obtained by peaceful methods. Even
if | were not on principle opposed e |
mlitancy, as | am, | would be opposed
to suffragists resorting to it, on the |
mere basis of bad policy | do not
believe there is any good to be de
rived from mlitancy in the suffrage |
movement. 1t is bad tactics ant
would do more to retard the move |
ment in this, and believe any othe
country, than any organized force Of
anti-suffragists possibly could.
| wish to state my position in re
gard to militancy once for all, for ! |
have no time to answer misleadinp
and distorted statements or editorials |
and would not do so now if it were
not that reading the misrepresenta
tons, some of the friends of suffrage |
are disturbed over the false reports |
There was no more thought OF mill |
fancy in my refusal to fill a bill o

When the other kitties found out
