Paper Trust Triumphant.

The price Of print paper has taken
another jump, which is more toll that
the paper trust is exacting from the
county publisher. This is the great
est highway robbery that has ever
been pulled off. The big daily papers
are as mum as lobster on this rob-
berry, and we would stake our life on
it that the daily papers are buying
their paper at the old price, and are
thus paid to keep their mouths shut.
Paper should be cheap because oflthe
fact that seventy-five per cent. OF the
newspapers of Europe have suspend
ed, and the trust is making us pay for
that loss in business. President Will
son made a great speech at Madison
Square Garden Just before the cleo
ton four years ago, in which ne told
us he would throttle the trusts, or
know the reason why it could not be
done. We thought he meant what he
slid, but instead he has made no eff
fJrt whatsoever. He has the reigns
of the government absolutely in his
hands and could have made an effort
but he has ignored the promise made.
the trusts are running wild with the
people, with the pretext that the war
in Europe has caused it al.o tits now
costing us siny. per cent. more to
publish the Outlook than itdid in Feb
ruary. When our pocketbook is hit
in this way, we are going to talk out
in school. This is personal matter
with us, and when we learn paper is
selling cheaper in war-ridden Europe
than it is in the United States, itnakes
our blood boil.-Falmouth Outlook,

FIGHT ACAIST
WHITE PLAGUE
New Directory Lists 300
Agencies Engaged In
Consumption Campaign.

Statistics made public today by The
National Association for the Study and
Prevention Of tuberculosis show that
nearly 5000 agencies are now listed
in the fight against tuberculosis in the
United States; an increase of 1900 per
cent. since 1904, when the national
warfare on this disease was started.
These figures are taken from a new
tuberculosis directory just issued by
the Association.
The list includes 557 sanatoria and
bosuitals, 1853 boarding houses, 80 hos
pitals for the insane and 35 penal in
stitutions making special provision for
tuberculosis, ASS dispensaries, $40
open air schools, and 1924 anti-tuber-
cdlosis associations and committees.
To these are added 1853 Canadian in
situations and associations, making a
total of 9Os7. The directory also
gives a summary Of municipal and
state legislation on tuberculosis.
/ When the National Association was
formed in 1904 and the first list Of
agencies was printed, only 1873 organ
izations and institutions were found.
The second edition of the Directoryin
1908 reported 649 different agencies;
and i440 were listed in the third edi-
ton published in 1911. On the basis
of the latter figures, the number of
agencies in the anti-tuberculosis move
ment has increased lis per cent. in
the last five years.

The Sex. ST. ;ke."
From the Courier-Journal.

From the Courier-Journal.
"The sensational ladies suggesting
the plan of sex strike among the
women obelIigerent countries may
think they are proposing something
new in urging wives and sweethearts
of soldiers to refrain from caresses
until the fighting stops. 1t so happens,
however, that Lysistrata, titular he
roine of the most farcical of Aristo-
planes comedies, headeda represen-
tative gathering of Athenian matrons
after years of the Peleponnesian war
and advised that very thing-a sex
strike. Incidentally, it didn't work. y

Sex strikes, in point of fact, are
quite common in all periods OF his
tory. The Observation-Disclosures
MISUNDERSTANDING" strike never
has been effective as form OF
limited prohibition because kisses
have been as numerous as boot
legged" TASKS in dry district.
The sex strike against the young
man who would marry but lacks suf-
ficient means is agitated in every
family which includes daughter, but
| it is rarely effective.
The young woman who told her
sutton that until he should save Sl0,-
600 he must not hope to marry her,
or to communicate with her, illus
trated the futility of sex strikes when
she broke her resolution by writing
| to inquire what progress he had made
in thrift. The reply was that he had
saved $3.50. He received in re-
Spouse a dispensation in the form of a
perfumed note saying that the sum
mentioned would do.
Cooperation of the sexes, and re-
sultant inspiration, has accomplished
Iabout all that has been accomplished
lin the world. Opposition of the sexes
never has scored a notable victory.
| 1t would be fortunate if women
could, by frowning upon warriors,
end war. There has been, undoubt-
eddy, for some thousand of years, a
tendency to frown upon them, which
has stimulated martial valor more
than blasts from brazen bugles or the
roll of drums. But the sex strike is
like the Farmers Alliance-it will moi
hold together. 1t is impossible tc
unionize the female of the species
Nobody thinks of trying to institute g
sex strike with men as the strikers

The Test.

1t is easy enough to be pleasant
When life goes along like a song,
But the fellow worth while
Is the one who can smile
When like a grim fire alarm gong
The telephone peals forth at midnight,
And be aroused from his slumber,
And he answers the call
Just to find, after all,
That someone has got the wrong
number.

Ladies Lost on

Miss Frances Syler of Denver, who

accompanied by two lady friends, left
Georgetown late Wednesday afternoon
to gather wild flowers, and having
wandered too far up Democrat noun
tam, lost the trail and caused a great
deal of excitement in town.
Searching parties were organized and
started but the obstacle of not knowing
in just which direction the young aides
had started caused great amount of
useless search. The ladies' were found
at day break, and aside from the ner-
vousness brought about through their
spending the night alone in lonesome
cabin, suffered no severe hardships.

Enterprise, published in the town
where the Judicial Assembly was
held, has the following to say about
Arthur ID. Quaintance:
"Altho two of the candidates
were from jefferson County,
the delegation from that coun-

attorney of very prepossessing
appearance, successful prac-

atty. All his life he has been
resident of Colorado and
staunch and true Republican,
according to some wenty
Goldenites who attended the

or as visitors
The Republicans of this district
are fortunate in having one candi-
date who has successfully practised
law for the past ten years
throughout the entire District,
and who has repeatedly opposed
the present District A ttorney
with universal success. Mr..
Quaintance, who is member of
the Elks, Masons, Odd Fellows
and Woodmen of the World, and
who worked his way through the
Ann Arbor Law school, is a man
in the early thirties, full of vigor
and energy, is a fighter by nature
and will impartially enforce and
uphold the laws.
This is the first time he has ever
been a candidate for public Office.
He is not political trickster and
appeals to the Independent voter
because he is under no obligations
to any political boss. Everyone
will get square deal under his
administration and he will not
permit your money to be expended
in prosecuting those who are mere
ly unfortunate. Your vote for
him at the primaries will mean
vote for a clean, vigorous and
efficient administration of the
office of District Attorney. He
will be glad to see you at his office
in the Ernest and Cranmer build
ing, Denver, Colorado. or in his
office in Golden. Colorado.
