VERY truly does ]. ]. Hill, philoso-
pher and railway constructor, say that
the greatest factor making for high
prices is the wage rate" Everybody
knows that labor cost is the principal
item in all forms of industry. The
wage rate has been rising steadily in
this country Powerful forces are back
of this movement. 1t is public SYM
patty. AS the labor supply dimin-
ishes, wages rise still more. High
wages and high prices work in circle.
Every rise of one is reflected in a rise
of the other. But somebody has to
pay these wages. They do not come
out of the air In the end labor suf-
fers when the business no longer pays
profit and the payrolls cease entirely
by the closing up of an industry no
longer profitable. But the railroads
must 90 on, declares Mr. Hill. Capital
once invested in the business cannot be
taken out. The railroads need hum
dreds of millions of new capital every
year. How is this capital to be obtain
ed unless investors are convinced of
the ability of the carriers to earn fair
return?

A Shortage in Paper.

A commodity even so indirectly re-
lated to the demands of war as paper is
showing the prevailing tendencies to
such degree as seriously to embarrass
publishers. The higher price of paper
stock and the difficulty of obtaining it
at all in England was chief factor in
the discontinuance in March of the
London daily Standard, after career
of sixty years, for considerable por-
ton of which it was the most impor-
tant organ of the middle classes in
England. In America the demand for
paper has been increasing for six
months as result of general business
activity. At the same time, supplies
used in it's manufacture have been de-
creased by war conditions. and in some
cases have almost been. shut off. The
supply of old rags has teen affected by
the cutting off of the importations from
the European peasantry and by the de-
mand for the making of guncotton.
The chemicals used in bleaching the
paper produced by sulphuric acid
and alum are being devoured by the
manufacturers of explosives, while inn
portations of jute have fallen off until
the price is doubled. An embargo has
been placed on shipments of wood pulp
from Norway and Sweden, while Can
ada stopped. access to her vast re-
sources some time ago. The newspaper
publisher is, indeed, hard hit by war
conditions in many other items of sup
plies besides the basic one of paper
stock. Practically everything going
into the manufacture of daily news
paper has inci eased in price from 10 to
Is per cent-inks, owing to the adj
vance in the cost of acids and dyes,
from 800 to 5000 per cent; type, owing
to the higher cost of lead, tin and anti
mony-even the rubber and felt blank
cts wrapped around the. press rollers

The Drainage Proposition.

Action on the long talked of drainage
proposition has at last been taken. 1t
is in the form of petition signed by
over forty property owners along the
line of the creek asking for the organ
ization of the lower Saunders creek
drainage district and for the appoint
ment of commissioners to take charge
of the work, making surveys, levying
assessments and letting contract for
digging the new waterway and straight
ening the old. The petition asks for
ditch to begin at the Randolph street
bridge, continuing to the High street
bridge near the pumping station. The
petition has been filed with Judge
Grimm of the circuit court for Rock
county. Providing the prayer OF petit
TONERS is granted it will take several
weeks before the work on the ditch
can be commenced, as legal advertis-
ing, levying of assessments, hearings
for objections and letting contracts
will drag the matter along until the
approach of fall.
There is no question but what the
valley through which Saunders creek
passes is more oftentimes flooded than
in former years, and probably due to
the drainage of the large marshes that
lie north of the city. A large majority
of property owners feel confident that
the proposed improvement will relieve
them from flood damages 20 a certain
extent, and for that reason are willing
to submit to reasonable tax for car
rying out the proposition. ,,4Ehe city of
Edgerton will undoubtedly be benefited
by the drainage quite largely and for
thatsreasoneits representatives will SUBJ
nit to paying their proportion of the
assessment when the levy is made.

HUMBUG! Such is the presidential
primary such is every primary. 1t is
but costly fad which has attained no
desirable results anywhere. 1t has not
put the bosses out of business, and 1T
never will. Four years ago it was
tested in a small way. This year it
will be tried on much more extensive
scale, and if one may judge from its
workings thus far in the campaign,
that new method of selecting delegates
to national conventions will be thor
oughly discredited. The presidential
primary is the biggest of the many big
humbugs that have been foisted upon
American politics during the last dec
ade. One need not be prophet to
predict that not many more trials will
be needed to consign it to the dump for
discarded fool fads. Madison Demo-

MORE than twenty thousand tons of
wood flour, valued at $500, 900, are used
annually in. the United States in two
widely different industries, the manu-
facture of dynamite and the manufac-
ture of inlaid linoleum. Wood flour is
also used in making composition floor
ing, oatmeal paper, and in several 9th
er industries. 1t forms one of the
means by which the huge waste pro-
duct of our lumber mills is beginning
to find some better means of disposal
than the burner.

Salt Water Cataracts.

There are a good many salt water
cataracts in existence. They may be
found in Norway, southern Chile and
British Columbia. where narrow fOrds,
or arms of the sea. are INSTRUCTED by
barriers of rock. The rising tide flows
over and filters through such reefs into
the great natural reservoirs beyond,
but the water is held back at the ebb
until it breaks over the obstruction in
an irresistible torrent. Most curious

In the Home Circle.

In f1OIII0 SiTCiCs
l find that l can write all day with
out pain in my fingers if hold the pen
loosely If l should grasp it tightly it
would be Uu.y Ii few hours before the
strain made writing almost impossible.
Do We not often hold too tight rein
on ourselves and our families for COM
fort? Habit has made us bossy and
domineering. When a member of the
family goes we want to know where
he is going and how long he intends
to be gone; we keep string on him
and are ready to drag him home that
we may feel that all are sheltered and
under our watchful eyes.
This is selfish care. 1t fences the in
dividual in. 1t hampers him and makes
his field of pleasure and activity cramp-
ed and raspfns.
When one knows that another is
trustworthy. why hold so tight rein ?
Some of us have got into the habit of
REFRESHING and suppressing ourselves
for the sake of peace and the absence
Of anxiety. Freedom is necessary for
