Law Is 'Tyrannical Power

Washington. Nov. S0.-In briefs

supporting their appeal from convic-
tions for conspiring against the draft
law. Emma Goldman and Alexander
Berkman declare the paramount
question before the court is whether

The contrast between the economy
and simplicity Of registering ten mil
lion men from whom to select the first
increment of the new national army
and the cost of raising 2,25O,000 for the
federal army in the Civil war is pointed
out by Munsey' Magazine, which
quotes Representative Kahn of Cali
fornia as saying that in 1S61-1S65
twenty-three states paid out nearly
1920. 600, 900 in cash and other bountieS
to induce men to enlist. While the
states were expanding this immense sum
the federal government paid out 1868,
5000 in cash and land and other
bounties With the states bidding
against one another and the national
government bidding against all, com
petition often forced the price above
81 900 a man. There were men in Brat
tleboro who in the days of the Civil wal
paid 81 800 each for substitute. The
total amount paid out in bounties t
raise an army of 100000 men, accord
ing to Congressman Kahn, was NOR
than $685. 900. This is pretty con
elusive testimony although in only di
rection, to show that the volunteer sys
TEN is not the way to raise an arm
either quickly or economically. Unde

of wealth does not escape through hi
dollars, as was the case in the Civil wa
! Now when a man is selected for servic
through the draft he goes to the color

"Thcre are men walking about the

Automobiles have struck trolley rail
road traffic a staggering blow. Almost
nothing is being done in the wav of
building new trolley lines, an important
exception being in the completion of the
Huntington-Lee link between Springfield
and Pittsfcld, which gives Bennington
and North Adams direct connec-
ton by trolley with Boston and New
York. Even the trolley lines in thick
~ settled areas are asking for an in
crease in fares. 1t was believed a few
years ago that the trollevs would even.
tually bring the farmers into close touch
with the cities and large towns, but the
automobile has accomplished that pur-
pose and il has the great advantage of
not depending upon anything in the
way of a definite schedule Another
reason why trolley lines are not being
built is the immense increase in the cost
of construction and maintenance.

Juice Of Lemons!
How to Make Skin
White and Beautiful

At the cost of small jar of ordi-
nary cold cream one can prepare full
quarter pint of the most wonderful lem
on skin softener and complexion beau
tifier, by squeezing the juice of two
fresh lemons into a bottle containing
three ounces of orchard white. Care
should be taken to strain the juice
through q fine cloth so no lemon pulp
gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh
for months. Every woman knows that
lemon Juice is used to bleach and re-
move such blemishes as sallOwness,
frcckles and tan and is the ideal skin
softener, smoothener and heautifer.
Just try it Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint OF this sweetly fra
grant lemon lotion and massage it daily
into the face, neck, arms and hands. 1t
naturally shonld help to soften, freshen,
bleach and bring out the roses and
beauty of any skin. It is wonderful to
smoother rough, red hands.-Adv.

The Government has fixed the mini
mum price to be paid the Western Farm
ers for the 1913 crop of Wheat at $500
per bushel. The price for the 1917
Wheat crop (Wheat Winter and Spring.
has not been fixed. It seems difficult to
satisfy the Western Farmer and East
ern Consumer; however, it is evident
that the Western Farmer will demand
for the 1917 crop high prices, or at
least comparatively high prices, on ac-
count of the smallness of the crop;
therefore. we think the Consumer is per
fectly safe in purchasing -four at pres
ent prices, especially -four manufactured
from Winter Wheat, which we believe
is at the low point of the crop year.
Winter Wheat fiours make good bread,
and Of course fancy pastry; they will
not produce as much bread as Spring
Wheat OilSe WHITE SATIN), but they
will produce q wholesome, white loaf.
The difference existing at the present
time, probably because new Spring
Wheat is not yet available, is about 50
per barrel at retail. Any of the follow
ing brands arc guaranteed pure, and
can be furnished by any grocer in New
England:
ADRIAN, Michigan Patent, manu-.
featured from Michigan White Wheat
CRoSBY'S SPECIAL, Kansas Pat
ent, manufactured from hard Winter
Wheat.

tured from Soft Red.
