In order to prove that the high
cost of living is not the trouble, but
rather the cost of high living, Con-
gresham Frank Clark took a friend
out to dinner and theater, and they
had a glorious time on 6S cents-94
cents each. If Mr.. Clark continues
to apply the discovery that one can
live we'll on a little or nothing in
Washington, and carries the princi-
pie into all his expenditures, he can
lay by a goodly sum for the rainy
day out of his congressional salary.
AS a matter of fact, people would be
as we'll or better off without most of
the things they spend money for
and Mr.. Clark's demonstration that
two gentlemen can have an even
ing's outing in supposedly expensive
Washington for an OUTLAY of 6S
cents ought to be of value to those
to whom such frugality should be an
object. But, Frank. if we come to
see you in Washington don't pull off
any such stunt on us,

Tecum A writ of that character
was handed the new officer, and he
mistook the title of the paper for
the name of the person upon whom
it was to be served. Accordingly he
searched high and low for "Mr. Du

mote part of the county, and partic-
ularly searching among Greek fruit
stands and other haunts of "'furri-

Nobody objects to giving q negro
porter on a Pullman a quarter. But
what gals a man is that he is not
giving it to the porter at all, but to
the Pullman Company, one of the
wealthiest corporations in the coun-
try. That is exactly whom you are
tipping-not the negro, but the ra-
pacious corporation which could sell
and buy You and everybody that's
kin to you twenty times over. For
YOU pay the negro's salary with the
tip, just as surely as if you handed
it into the office of the Pullman Com
pany as your contribution to the
porter's salary. The California
Railway Commission is taking up the
matter of this abuse, and here's God
speed to that body in its excellent
work. We hope to see every State
in the Union go after the Pullman
Company and see that they pay their
porters living wage. Or perhaps

could handle it,
