Wilson's Personality.

President Wilson exercises more
power than any other man who has
been in the executive chair since Lin
coin. Congressman decry his "tyran-
ny" in vain, for, unlike Roosevelt.
he does not exercise any authority
not delegated to him in the constitu-
ton. Nor is his advice universally
followed because men respect his
Judgment; there is much questioning
his judgment. BY the subtle, insen-
sible influence of his sincerity and
singleness of purpose he rules the
democratic majority. His command
ing personality dominates party
strangely lacking in commanding
personalities, and forces the members
to tasks for which they have no stom-
ach. The practicing politicians among
the democrats want to go home and
fix fences They think they have
passed enough laws to make record
on which to ask for another term.
They desire to let conditions quiet
down, SO that the big crops of the
West can bring prosperity for them
to claim as their own handiwork.
They want to get out of Washington
so that the house will not be forced
to put itself on record by vote on
the prohibition amendment. But the

Patronizin9 Home Industry

"Patronize home industry" is a slo.
gan that looks well in print, sounds
well in public address and is a fine
thing if carried into actual practice,
but the man who advises his neigh.
bors to patronize home industry, then
buys practically all of his needs in
some other town or city, is setting
mighty poor example and falls far
short of being good citizen.
The home printer, the home furni.
ture dealer, the home clothing mer
chant, all have their eyes on the citi
zen who advises his neighbors to pa
tronize home industry. but spends his
own money elsewhere. And who car
blame them?
We are dependent upon one anoth
err; and II our town is to be made
the best town everyone must do his
part towards patronizing home indus
try, and keeping at home the money
needed for town and community de
velopment.

When Work IS Waste.

Suppose Mr.. Carnegie conceived
the graceful notion of erecting mon
strous sod pyramid to himself in Kan.
sas He could buy the farms Of a
whole county at whatever price the
owners asked, then hire the entire
able-bodied population at ten dollars
a day to sow grass and produce sod,
cut it into squares and haul them to
the monumental site and pile them
up.
Times would be notably flush in
that county while the operation last
ed. The builder would be giving
work. to laborers-"putting his mon
ey in circulation" And at the end
OF the operation the county would
be weedy barren, never again USE
full to man until long, toilsome ef-
fort had been expended to redress
the soil and bring it back into cult
walton.
Or suppose he expended only quar-

factory to make good cloth out of
wheat straw. Suppose he hired ten
thousand men to sit on a fence and
white sticks, and another ten thous-
and to convert swamp into tillable
land. Nobody would have the least
doubt as to which expenditure was
good and which bad; which increas-
ed the country's wealth and which
diminished it.
Wasteful expenditure by the rich
Il often foolishly applauded because
it gives work to labor and keeps
money in circulation. A gambling
house might just as we'll be applaud
ed on the same grounds. The wealth
OF any country consists in it's natur-
al resources and it's labor. One of
the worst things about plutocrats is
their power to say how natural re-
sources and labor shall be employed
whether usefully or wastefully.
When they make useless funllies
of men who might be hoeing potatoes
they are squandering a resource of
the country as really as though they
burned young timber.-Saturday Eve

EXAMINE ASSESSMENTS.

Those in charge of the county tax
kept busy Saturday afternoon and
evening supplying the assessed valua-
tons of property. A steady stream of
taxpayers flowed into the council
chambers. Many written complaints
were filed. These were mainly reasons
of property owners why, in their judg-
ment, there should be a reduction
from the valuation as fixed by the as
SCISSOR. They were chiefly on residence
property and reductions requested
were small.

Eight Hour Law Unreasonable

S. l. Lanning, a mill employee at
McCleary, writes the following opin.
ion on the proposed eight.hour law
that is worth reading and considera.
ton, to the Elma Chronicle:
THE law has no more right to tell
me when I am tired than it has to
tell me when am hungry.
mo more right to limit the capacity
OF my muscles than Of my digestive
organs. know when fell tired
and when my stomach feels full and
want the other fellow to attend to
his BUSINESS and allow me that same
privilege.
"The Eight Hour Law is a Social.
istic attempt to legislate all to a com.
mon level, to act alike, think alike
and in time look so near alike that
1t won't make any difference whether
We are married or not for we could
not tell one woman from another any
more than we could one Plymouth
Rock pullet from her sisters.
I'VE would all then be content for
no ambition would worry us, no in
dividual ownership, no individual
rights, no incentive to excel, nothing
but contentment and unalloyed hap
piness.
"The first book in the Bible mar.
rates an account of an attempt to
hold goods in common and all at
tempts since have proven as unsat.
isfactory as it did with Jacob and
Jaban.
1--WE oppose the Eight Hour Bill be-
cause we believe it to be unconsti-
tutional. to be opposed to the indus
tries Of the state, and it encourages
idleness and discourages marriage
and the building Of homes.
1--WE believe a law compelling all
men to labor at least eight hours per
day unless they had doctors certi.
ficate Of inability and fining them If
they were caught loafing would come
nearer meeting the present demands
for labor legislation.
There are too many consumers
and not enough producers, too many
men waiting for the government to
find them a good job instead of find
ing it themselves.
There Is no excuse for idleness in
this world except that men do not
want to work.
If you can't get your price do the
next best thing, and the worst thing
You can do is to be idle, for an
idle mind is the DEVILS Workshop"

His First Defeat.

For the first time since he be-
came president, Woodrow Wilson
has met with a serious reverse
in Congress-. The Senate was so
firmly set against the confirma-
ton Of Thomas D. Jones as a
member Of the Federal reserve
board that the president was
forced to withdraw his name.
Hitherto he has had his way both
as to legislation and as to ap.
pointees, but now the one man
who was peculiarly his personal
choice, as he himself expressed
it, for the board, has been thrown
out, and President Wilson is nat
urally quite perturbed about it.
Whether this reverse is the begin.
ming of the end of his remarkable
control over Congress can only
be conjectured, but the indica-
lions do not point that way.-St.
Paul Dispatch.
The unprejudiced observer will b.
Orced to the conclusion that the with
travail of Mr.. Jones name is not ;
lefeat for the president but rathe

determined to inject politics into thu
