Francis Leupp, who knows the indian

father to rebellious children, if not as

That is just the way Cecil Rhodes

Military Graft Universal.
From the Springfield Republican

EtOAt tio opAAu6ACiu INcpuDilCdIl-
While particular allegations OF graft in
connection with war purchases may be
exaggerated or u~nfounded., it may be tax
ticed on an enormous scale, because that
Is an almost invariable feature Of war.
Germany, by Its thorough preparation in
advance. may be an exception, yet 1t Is
but a short time since Germany was agi-
tated by charges of graft involving the
Krupps. BY Its immense ornaments,
however. 1t has avoided the extortion and
fraud suffered by countries which have
to prepare after war begins. Nor Is 1t
wholly the supplies purchased abroad
which cause trouble; business too often
gets the better OF patriotism. In our civi'
war the arming. clothing and feeding OF
sules, shoddy blankets. condemned army
muskets. and junk of all kinds sold at
fancy prices were a bitter jeSt in the
army. Many an American fortune was
founded In trade Of that sort, and the
frauds practiced In our Spanish war. the
Boer war. and Russia's war with Japan
are still fresh in mind. Graft was largely
responsible for the bad showing made by
the Turkish army In 1872. 1t is often said
that democracy shows at its worst In war
time, yet in his respect there seems lit
tie difference between democracy and
.despotism: the rapidity of ~bureaucrats
even militarism is immune, as the scan
dals last year In Japan showed. But
democracy can best strengthen itself for
an emergency by dealing with ~unflinching
severity with citizens who defraud the
government. IL every dishonest contrac-
tor were sent to the trenches business
morals would quickly improve.

The first thing to do If you really
want to get out Of a hole is to stand
still and AXE q good look at the hole.
Stop and remember that you got your
self into the hole, and IL you had power
to get into it you can certainly muster
up wit enough to get out. Be still and
examine with interest every detail of
your hole, your daily life and happi-
ness. See If there are o little ways
In which to improve things. Make up
your mind that there is a way out and
that you will muster up patience and
interest and gumption enough to find
1t, and that you will grow brighter and
wiser and more powerful by doing 1t.
Look at your circumstances. instead
OF over them. Time enough to look at
what's outside the hole after you have
got out.
Get interested in doing what you
can do, instead of fussing away your
energy on what o can't do.
Make every motion of thought or
body tell for self development in wis
dom. grace. good feeling, accuracy of
movement and thought. Make every
action help toward tho formation of
desirable habits Of body. thought and
feeling.
And remember always that desirable
habits a be formed in any environ
ment, habits which will At you for a
better environment, and which will at
tract 1t.
1t Is not what you do, but how YOU
do 1t, that builds character and en-
vironment to match. If you can't get
out OF the hole just now, you can build
within it. which will event
uaIly take . out of 1t.

farmers Caught Coming and Going

From the Country Gentleman.
according to all sayings the instance of
most complete omission is the play of
Hamlet with Hamlet left out. But there
are other similar !nstances-for example,
the Increase in! freight rates granted by
the Interstate Commerce commission. AS
you read the opinions you may wonder
how In. the world the farmers came to be
left out of that remarkable gift, estimated
TO be worth annually to the railroads all
the way from $40. 000,0 900 to $50, 1000 O-possi-
bly, more. But II you go into the figures
far enough o will soon find that the
farmers are NOT left 0ut-they were merely
not mentioned. They are there all right.
to the tune of millions.
It will cost them more to get their prod
ucts to market: 1t will cost them moro to
get their machinery and supplies and ma
terial from market. They are caught COM
Ing. and going. II they ask about 1t the
reply L.: why. the increase in each item

h ininiteslmals make up that $3O. 0oo, 600
or $5O,0O 600, rising every year.
For four years the railroads concentrate

sion TOR permission to raise their rates.
guns and all their little guns, until q ma
jority OF the members gave way. Mean
while they raised their passenger fares.
During all that time nobody represented
the agricultural interests, and there Is
nothing in the opinions to show that the
farmers must q more to send products
to market. must pay more to get goods
from market. and must pay more il they
want to go to market themselves. No one
can blame the railroads for getting all
they can, and there is much merit IN the
view that their good fortune is q fore
runner OF. general prosperity. But isn't
1t about time farmers were Rcttin1 busy

in the orders OF the day that he had been

why Gyou know how near we came

with our two army corps retreating on one

lying down in the middle Of the road, BY

He swore he was too dog tired to move,
