WAY FOR THE YOUNG MEN!
Ia Pointed Out by Writer In
Magazine.

Clear the way for the young men.
They are entering "the strong. -four
ishing, and beautiful age Of mans
life" They decree the changes. The
map of the world may be rolled up
every acre tramped upon and inhab-
tied, But still they come, claiming all
the rights of the adyenturer and pio-
neer. Domains must be found for
them if the old earth has gone stale.
II the life of danger and discovery is
ended, then they will turn their hand
against our secure world and refash-
ion the pleasant places. They will
uproot tradition and shatter the insti-
buttons. We should like them better
If they fitted into our scheme, If they
we're rudy and CHEEKY and ended
there. But they come earnest and
critical. They ieer at our failures,
reject our compromises. It isn't our
idea of youth our peaceful picture Of
waht youth should DE. Poets sing 1t
as If it we're a pretty thing, the gentle.
possession OF golden race of beings.
But 1t is lusty with power and disas-
uous TO comfort. Men sigh for It as
If it bad vanished with old Japan at
the hour when 1t is romping in their
courtyard and challenging their dear
beliefs. They are wistful for 1t in
their TRANSPORTED memory, and they
curse it in their councils, for youth
never is what the elders would have
II 1t does unacceptable things. while
age stands blinking and sorrowful. 1t
is unruly, turbulent power on its end

THE cry give big business chance"
is out of order. Big business has had a
chance too long already. For instance,
upwards Of fifty per cent profit off the
struggling miners, the toilers at fires,
with the wheelbarrow, the shovel, etc.
Had miners been given what their ores
were readily worth, and had the toiers
been more literally compensated there
swould be today more general prospect
ty and happiness, while the bosses
would still revel in generous dividends
There's no need of $50, 900, 600 or there
abouts to the individual, especially at
the cost of the labor of others. Did
our Creator intend it that way? No
sir. The cry should have been and
still should be, "Give the honest toiler

School books at secondhand objected
to on the score of danger from disease
germs And what remedy is proposd
Taxing the people, already overtaxed,
to buy free books for the children who
now enjoy the benefit of free schools
each child's books to be burned as soon
as he is through with them, instead of
passing them on TO another, though
they may be but very sighting worn
and practically clean and just as SER
viceable as ever
What about the danger of disease
germs on the money the city collects
for taxes, which passes through hun
dreds and thousands of hands? A
member of the School Board who has
come out strong" against second
hand school books, works in bank and
has handled millions of money more
germ-laden fhan any school book ever
was, and yet he is the picture of
rugged health.
Start some other scare than that Of
germ laden secondhand school books.
The secondhand school book scare is
too thin. II is so transparent that any
body with eyes can see through it.

OUR DENATIoNAIIZED PARTIES.

Parties are no longer national in the
strict and technical sense. They have
come completely under the control of
state laws, and the same name means
different things in different states.
Thus the Republican party IN iowa,
Nebraska or Kansas is a very different
affair from the Republican party in
Ohio, Pennsylvania, or New York. The
fight between the progressives and the
standpatters had come earlier in those

The interesting discovery has been
made by Senator Lewis that three
members of the national legislature
purchased the same speech and fired it
off at the same time. 1t was on fl

ers, if it had any; but the Congression-

SHOULD NOT MiSREPREsENT,
Darlington Democrat

Darlington Democrat
Wisconsins taxes are too high.
Nearly everybody says so. Every
candidate for headship of ticket for
state Office says so. Every payer of
taxes says SO
No campaigner will waste time in
proving that taxes are too high. That
fact is admitted. The cause and the
remedy are legitimate subjects for
discussion.
State, county, city, village and town
ship taxes have increased. Reductions
that reduce in an appreciable degree
all along the line. A reduction of state
taxes alone, even though the reduction
be sweeping enough to wipe them all
out, would not restore taxation TO the
figures of ten years ago. Reduction
that reduces enough TO notice will have
to cut from top TO bottom and spare
neither state, county, city, village or
township.
A party that aspires to displace the
party under whose control taxes have
increased must be specific in its dag
nosis and remedies recommended. 1t
must also be truthful. 1t must get a
knowledge of the cause of increased
taxation. 1t must known whether in
creases have been justifable. 1t must
learn where cuts may be made without
injury.

THE EDITORIAL
OF THE DAY
OUR REyivING EXPORT TRADE
From Oar Exchanges.

/ l51t x4l <ler
New York Journal of Commerce:
The official statement OF the value
Iof our foreign trade for the month
of October shows a substantial in
crease in exports over the month OF
ISeptember, though they are still
much below those of October last
year. Last year the total was s271,-
IS61,464, compared with s195,204,-
$3.50 this year. The falling off was
heaviest in the class of crude ma
terials for use inA manufacturing"
Last year in October. the value of
these amounted to $125,239,556
while last month 1t was only s32,-
I9S9,050, which more than accounts
for the entire loss. There was a
large increfse in foodstuffs, from
S11,764,519 to $40, 224,532 for those
In crude condition and from s29-
7T5,473 to $37,411,532 for those
wholly or partly manufactured. There
was only a moderate decline in the
export of manufactured goods, con-
sidering tho conditions, and it looks
as though the decrease in the total
value were. fully accounted for by
the virtual embargo upon cotton.
That has been practically removed,
except SO far as it is due to the i'm
pairment OF the manufacturing in
Fdustry in England and France, and
that is recovering ground. Tire way
has been opened to Germany for this
product and quite a large quantity
is being shipped at a relatively high
price.
Tho oon,pnricon ~ fbo fo,,roe Gov
October with those of September is
still more interesting as indicating
the revival which was taking place
last month and has continued in thu
.Ipresent month. In September the
value of exports was S153,ASC,392
This indicates an increase during
the last month of about S42.c GOT
The increase in crude materials fol
manufacturing was 'over $14 $500,
600 and in crude food products near
ly $~27,000,000,, While there was
considerable gain in MANUFACTURED
articles exported.
Another comparison of interest i:
that which shows the change in ex
ports to different countries. These
to Germany fell from $~14,S15,675 il
October last year to $6,16S,O5S
while those to the United Kingdom
rose from S20,24S,649 to $25,O57,
$500. There was a decline in those
to France from $9.5O3,777 to 81,
s02,T19. To the Netherlands there
was an increase from ~$1,7S1,24S to
$2,942,450, part of which made It.
way to Germany, no doubt. Oul
direct exports to Russia dropped
from $1,764.S74 to the insignificant
figure Of s127,8s3. Austria is mo-
even mentioned in the list of prin.
cipal countries" to which we sent
exports, while the amount going tx
Italy shows an increase from s4,345
$40 to $5,627,310. Our exports to al
Europe show a decline compared
with October last year from S64,
134.125 to $57,691,255, while fol
North America there was an in.
crease from $2S,76S,aS3 to $33,
746,41S and for South America
from $15,1S0,939 to s20.597,63S
On the whole there are evidences Of
a vigorous recovery in our, export
trade which has continued i'll the
present month.
