In THE February Womau's Home
Companion, contributor writes very
important and interesting article en-
titled ''Why Fifty Women Do Not Go
to Church" A woman tells, as fol-
lows, why she has given up church 60
ing: "The trouble with the church is
that it has developed into sort of har-
Dor for those who are flying from their
sins. People repent of their sins, and
join the church to save their own souls,
which is a very natural but selfish
reason. They join the church not from
any broad love of humanity or desire
for service, but because they desire to
escape damnation. The fundamental
requirement, according to orthodoxy, is
not works but faith; no matter how
upright and irreproachable mans life
has been; no matter how benevolent
nor how broad his service to humanity;
no matter what good he has accom-
plished in the world, if he has not ac-
cepted the orthodox faith he is lost.
On the other hand, man may have
been a lifelong criminal with scarcely
a redeeming act, but when he comes to
die he makes some sort of confession
of faith and passes on to eternal bliss.
l like to think of the gates of mercy as
being ever ajar, but it is ridiculous to
contend that the just and upright man
whose only fault was lack of faith will
be shut out. -

The world is startled by the munif-
cence of Henry Ford, the automobile
manufacturer, who announces that
$4,000, 900 of the annual profits of his
concern will hereafter be divided among
his 10000 employees and that a new
wage scale, with a minimum of SIS a
day, will be adopted. Some are inclin-
ed to question the wisdom of the limo
walton from a scientific standpoint, but
it is needless to say that the scoffers
are not numbered among the prospec-
tive beneficiaries. From the viewpoint
of the general public it may be said
that the incident gives an illuminating
glimpse of the prosperity of the auto
mobile industry When the manufac-
turer of one of the lowest priced cars
finds his profits so enormous that he is
constrained to give away millions, what
must be the ''velvet' margin between
cost and selling price of the more ex-
pensive machines?

OVER at Milwaukee the other day
Governor McGovern made an able
speech in which he sought zealously to
convey the impression that Wisconsin
taxes are not so very high anyway,
that our people are living in paradise
even if they don't know it, owing of
course to the commission benefits show
cred upon them, and that, after all,
taxes mostly come back for local dis
persion. But really what the worthy
governor should have said was that he
had on his hands an incorrigible legis-
lature, that he must not be held re-
sponsible for its mad rampagings, that
it sought to put him in hole from
start to finish and that out of the six
months of careless jockeying for politi-
cal advantage had come the eXtrava-
gance for which, to be candid, these
extraordinary taxes now are necessary.
Further, he could have added, that at
what he tried to have the solons do
they bucked and that at what he en-
deavOred to stop they bolted. Madison
Democrat.

A LETTER from a friend in another
part of the state speaks of the state of
public sentiment there prevailing to-
wards the present Progressive" adj
ministration of our state affairs. We
give the following extract from his
litter Il find in my experience in
talking with farmers and business men
generally that at no period in the last
twenty-five years has there been such
a determination to change matters in
this state as there is at the present
time. The very best men and many of
them who thought perhaps that the
commissions and some of the reform
measures might be helpful, very frank
ly say that they have had enough of it,
that they have been bitter disappoint-
ment and that the result of the work
done by no means justifies the enor-
nous expense. This year for the first
time we have the farmers thoroughly
aroused. They are comparing their
taxes this year with what they have
paid heretofore and they say that they
want no more commissions or reforms
that are going to amount virtually to g
coniscation. Fort Atkinson Union.

ing the tax collector recently are in in
surrection. Their burdens have been
increased enormously, not SO heavily as
those of the cityfolk, yet enough to
cause CONSERVATION. No such scandal
ever has been known in this state. No
such excitement has prevailed since
the days of the civil war. A political
revolution simply is inevitable. The
party responsible for the astounding
situation is doomed. Voters will no
longer stand this insufferable Oppres-
sion. Mark the prophecy. : Madison

State Aid Fallacy.

State treasurer, Hon. Henry John
son, in a recent interview, tells we'll
some homely truths.
''When it is argued before a county
board that appropriation should be
made for mothers pensions so that
state aid may be secured to aid in the
care of the unfortunates, the advocate
betrayS ignorance of the related eco
nomic facts or is dishonest. For it
should not be forgotten that the state
has no money to give for such aid.
''The commonwealth earns nothing.
All the money it has to offer in the way
of state aid comes out of the pockets
of the people. And, further, it should
not be forgotten that for every dollar
that is paid into the treasury only 65
cents comes back, as 35 cents dlsap-
pear through the process of admins
tration.
Mr.. Johnson holds that the whole
philosophy of state aid and county aid
is a delusion- nothing else. ct serves
a purpose, he said, ''to aid the politi-
clans in their schemes to deceive the
taxpayers, but in the end-or rather at
the beginning-it comes out of the
pocket of the taxpayer The money
cannot be spent until the taxpayer has
provided it.
State aid for roads, bridges, care of
the detectives are all of the same
piece. They serve a purpose to lead
the people into belief that they are
getting something out of the state, and
some are so simple as to chuckle and
| congratulate themselves over their
cleverness in soaking the common
wealth, while the truth is they have
soaked themselves and added penalty
of about 35 per cent.

How prone cities are to run in debt
when money is easy to obtain. Mil
waukee has paid over four million dol
lars in interest on bonds alone in the
past ten years, and not penny in pay
ment of principal 1t is now proposed
to issue three million dollars more of
bonds, making the debt equal to the
valuation of 2 per cent on the valuation
of the city. The old rule of pay as you

most of the present generation.

WE HEAR a good deal about the meat
trust but the published reports of the
big concerns show that it is the small
profits and quick sales that really make
the money, rather than unusual profits.
The gross business of Armour & Co.
for the last year was the greatest in
the history of the company, and the
profits also set new high record. The
gross was around $3.50, 900, 900, and the
net was 81, 356, O94. The previous
years gross was $500, 900, 900, and net
$40, 100, 1O6. The return on the capital
employed last year was 5.78 per cent
and the profits on sales were less than
2 per cent.

Gov. MCGOvERN is starting his Co
operative Farm Products Marketing
scheme at the wrong end. The middle
men and the cost of distribution are in
the cities, not on the farm. The CO.

coop during the ninth inning.
Some punk fielding work had pre-
scented Jennings team with five runs,
and the Sox had one when the ninth
opened Hall went wild, and so did
Dauss and COvaleslde, who relieved
him. AS result enough Sox were
passed to force in two runs with one
out and leave the bases full.
Daily was put in to bat for Four
nier against Covaleskie. Young Tom
was too eager. The giant Pole was
going badly, but DAILY went fishing for
a low one and popped a foul for the
second out. BlackbuTne was patient
and strolled, bringing the Sox within
one run Of a tie: Ray Schalk then
went up, impatient to clean the bases.
He couldn't wait, but lunged for a
bad one and dribbled in front of the
plate. He was tossed out at first.
One hit was the total of the Sox
swatting endeavors. This was made
by Demnitt in the first inning: It
was a double and a sacrifice fly and
infield out brought him in. It was a
pleasing and unusual example of real
baseball as played by big league
teams.
The defeat was the sixth straight
for the Sox, and tumbled them into
a tie for fourth place with st. Louis
and the Mackmen. If the Browns,
Athletics and Red Sox win today and
the Sox lose they viii be in seventh
place. That is a terrible fail from
the head of the race, which was the
proud position of the locals when
they left the shelter of the home lot.
Callahan put FouFnier into the
game in an effort to add batting
strength to the ensemble. It was
badly needed, but Jack was not the
proper ingredient.

But Vic did powerful lot of think
ing. He has shown the results of the
brain cOnvOlutions in the last two
games. In the final game with Pitts
burgh he pestled two hits. In the
opener against the Cards yesterday
he took three violent smashes, the
result being a single, double and tri-
pie. AS these stout soaks were CLEAN
ed from the delivery of Slim Sallee,
an efficient southpaw, the work of
Safer is all the more promising.
The team that performed on the
West Side lot yesterday did not look
like the same crew that let the Pirates
tEample them. Every man in the line
up walked up to the plate as though
he had hopes of connecting with the
ball, and three uprisings in as many
innings at the start Of the game put
it away safely.
Zim acted as though some one had
spoken words of reproof into his
shell-like ear. He rode the first two
runs home with a single, and paved |
the way for another with hot dou-
BILE. That Dutchman can play ball if |
he wants to, which makes his guilt |
the greater when he loafs on the job. |
Bresnahan was given a chance to |
go behind the bat because of Archer's |
slight sickness. The receiving did not |
suffer, either on defense or attack. |
One Card stole on Roger, but he got
this back by lamming triple behind |
a single.
Larry Cheney breezed through the
game with ease. Bill Sweeney COM
mitted four errors, but none Of them
were harmful. 1t was an easy game
for Larry to be dropped into.
It is to be hoped that this uprising
on the part Of the Cubs viii last for
more than one day. They can play
ball, but there are few spirits on the
team who must be prOdded ncessant-
lyto keep them keyed up to the prop
er pitch.

Behind him rode four Mexicans,

Aragon, pointing contemptuously at
their tent and beds, "and your low,

no longer stands in the name of Cruz

And she's some girl, too. believe

1t was great, and she could dance like
a queen.
But here's the interesting part of
it-what do you think she asked me,
after we'd had our little laugh? Well,

it-she asked about you'll"

himself; what does she know about
cowboys?"
"Oh, she's wise!" declared Phil;
shes been to school twice in Los

Yes, sir, she's just like an American

told me she didn't like the Mexican

selves-and say Bud. when l told her
