Alexandria, La, IS known through
out the South as the little town with
the big hotel. Strangers always re-
mark the incongruity of the nnetropol-
itan edifice apparently fallen by accf-
dent into this quiet little place.
@5aIt seems that In Aiexandria's ante
hotel days. wealthy man and his
small dog were stopping dt the town
inn. One day the innkeeper and guest
,had a'lively argument over the dog. Its
t6wi1er replied, that he and his, dog
would not be among those present at
the Inn In the future and departed
proudly. 1intimating darkly that the
innkeeper would be sorry. He then
made good his threat by building d
hotel such as Alexandria had never
dreamed of seeing, and here dog and
master took up their residence and
gathered to themselves all the tram

Where Does theN 50 .20 Go?

A miner being examined in court testified
that he received "a cents ton for mining COAL
while the company charged him $40 per ton
at the mouth of the pit for the same coal land
/ have to haul it home" On this is predicated
serious charge of exorbitant prohteerng. But
is such a charge justified? The miner is paid
for preparing the coal to, be broken down, for
which work he receives "a cents; back of him
come a considerable array of others who must
be paid out of the remainder These include
the shot-hrer, who touches off the blast the
miner has prepared, the clearers, who get the
fallen coal out of the way so that another lot
may be knocked down; the track-layers, who
arrange that the little cars may be brought
into the room; the drivers who haul the car
to the hoist, the trapper boys, the engineers,
hremen, electricians, steamfitters, plumbers,
carpenters, 1aborers, foremen, superintendents,
clerks, and all the others employed about the
mine take toll from that ton of coal Then the
government comes in with its claim for taxes.
and finally due allowance for depletion and
maintenance must be made so that by the
time the ton Of coal is delivered to the one
who hauls it away notable array of charges
has been laid against it, which must be paid.
If each of these were as heavy as that of the
miner, the price at the plymouth would be
many times $3.50 per ton. And most of the
added cost above the "a cents goes for labor

ROBERT BEECHER HOWELL
By Arthur Brooks Baker

Psychologists have said that to the pure all
things are pure; and scientific cynics, TO the
sure all things are sure" Thus Robert Beecher
Howell keeps rigid mental grip upon the
merits which reside in city ownership. The
way to make the city shine and give its spirit
wings is teaching it the management of lots Of
little things.
The street cars would not make so many
noises rough and raw, were they indicted to the
ownership of Omaha; the telephones would
struggle less with currents wildly crossed, were
they municipality bought and bonded for the
cost; the housewives art would quickly show
more evidence of class if city enterprise were
joined to furnishing the gas.
We need not underestimate the R. B. Howell
mind. Toward responsibility he is not disin-
clined. If all the private owners were retired
upon the shelf, he might consent to operate the
properties himself; and since he deity fur
nishes the water we require, why not the trans
portation, telephones and lights and fire?
But should we let those industries remain
in private grasp through loss of opportunities
which we neglect to clasp, we still require some
governors and senator's to aid in league long
steps of progress which are waiting to be made
and Howell would participate in any modest
view concerning his capacity to think and plan
and do.

Railroad Labor Under the New Law

In his commentary on the Esch bill, Judge
Lovett of the Union Pacific raises the objection
that the proposed law in effect continues all
wage schedules and working rules and regula-
tons made by the railroad administration dur
ing abnormal times. 1t likewise continues the
application of rates made in the same fashion,
but it does not make them perpetual. Certain
of the wage agreements negotiated by the labor
board have not worked out just as they were
intended to, because of misapplication and not
because of fault in principle involved. No one
who has kept watch Of the developments in con-
nection with the railroad question looks for re-
turn to prewar conditions in, the matter of
wages or working conditions. Inequalities in
wage schedules will be worked out, and more
satisfactory regulations may be substituted for
the hastily devised system of the McAdoo adj
ministration but the principle contained will
stay. Between the Plumb plan of control by
the employees and the Lovett idea of equally
absolute control by the magnates is the zone in
which lies the interests Of the public, and this
finally means the workers and the magnates as
well as the patrons. That wisdom may pre-
vail it will be necessary that control of the
lines fall somewhere in this zone, and to that
end the Esch bill contemplates retention of
the idea embodied in existing wage scales and
regulations. Notifications will undoubtedly
follow as readjustment proceeds, but there will
be no return to old methods.

REPUBLICANS ARE READY.

Not in long time has national gathering
of republican leaders displayed the vim and
confidence that marked the meeting just over
at Washington. 1t was not a conclave in the
interest OF candidate but an assemblage de-
voted to the welfare of the nation. Party d.
visions and factional differences are sunk be-
meath the all-important duty OF restoring the
country to stable condition of social and in
dustrial prosperity, and obiterating the effects
of seven years of democratic Encouragement
That this thought dominated the gathering
Is plain 1t is not the mere prospect Of party
success that animates the republicans today, but
a sincere patriotic desire to bring the affairs of
the government and the people out of the mud
die into which they have been plunged by the
Wilson administration. With this in view,
and determination firmly fixed, the representa-
tives of the party decided on prelninaries to
the next national convention, and have cleared
the way for the presentation of candidates,
enough of whom are already mentioned to make
sure that the party has no dearth of timber to
choose FROM
Closely united on the fundamentals that
made its years of control the most brilliant and
successful in American history the republican

even greater service. The future promises enor-
nous reward to we'll governed, conservatively
directed republic and to deserve and achieve that
reward is the purpose to which the party lead
ers are bent 1t will be no small undertaking
to retrieve the plumbers of the democrats, so
numerous and costly. but the task will be I'M
dertaken, not gaily, but sobery and earnestly,
that the nation may be brought again to solid
holding ground as soon as possible.
The convention to select the candidate will
convene in June. Until that time it is for
republicans to remain firm and feel that the
party that did not fail in 1860 will not fail in

Leading Up to Ratification.

The most notable utterance of the admins
tration leader in the senate in connection with
the Treaty of Versailles and the League of Ma
tions covenant it contains was made before the
Southern society at New York on Wednesday
night Senator Hitchcock then said "At the
present time in the senate the issue is not
whether the treaty shall be ratified with reser-
vations or without reservations. All of the
members recognize that reservations are in
evitable." This is making progress few
weeks ago the senator agreed with his chief
at the White House, publicly, that the treaty
could be put through without dotting an or
crossing t. No amount of assurance or
warning from the other side could alter this
fixed belief If he now has came to the UNDER
standing that reservations are inevitable, the
conclusion is warranted that something of the
same notion may have permeated the White
House. That means that the end is approach
ing, and ratification is not very far away.

what is half-tone cut?"
"A half-tone is an engraving used

consist of raised lines on a zinc

to print photographs because they
produce only black lines of ink on
a white background, while a photo
graph is made up of various shades
of gray. To make the gray in it,
the black and white must be broken

Solving the Coal Question in Italy.

The idea OF tapping the earth for its volcanic
energy has been carried into practice in Italy
with remarkable results. At Lordarello bore
holes have been sunk which discharged large
volumes Of high pressure steam, which is now
used to generate about 10000 horsepower BY
turbines. From time irnmemorial clouds OF
steam have smoked up from the 6ssures in the
rocks, grim warning of the volcanic forces be-
meath. 1t remained for Prince Ginori- Cont,
however, to realize the value Of the hidden
forces and by tapping them to utilize the forces
and save oil and fuel. Nearly IS years ago he
built 40-horsepower engine and set it up at
one of these assures. From that small begin
ming he has developed system of many thou
sand horsepower.
