Profiteering may yet be the UNI
doing of this country. No nation
ever is greater than the govern
ment it maintains, and if the gov
eminent does not conserve the in
terests of the people the people in
time lose confidence in that form
of government.
The greatest crime in the lis
tory Of our country is that Of
profiteering. wholesale and DELHI
crate robbery Of a helpless public.
Prices have been artificially
forced to such high altitude that
it is becomingly more and more
difficult for a poor person to even
sustain life.
The law of supply and demand
no longer prevails. 1t has been
substituted by one of gouge and
grab.
Already many people, men and
women Of sound and patriotic
principles, are predicting revolu-
ton as the only means Of check
ing his wholesale and lawless
thievery.
Our government should take
warning while there is yet time.
Protection Of profiteering should
cease at once, and prosecution
should be swift and relentless.
We can not afford to have our
great country wrecked upon the
rock of greed and avarice.
Public endurance is at the
breaking point. Revolution is
lowering dangerously near.
1t is the same tariff-pampered,
trust-fostered class that is putting
over this profiteering scheme in
the main the same class of YAM
pires, which buys its way into
power through control Of certain
purchasable politicians and then
saps the life blood out of the all
too credulous and indifferent
American spender- the spender
who never feels the jar until the
whole machine is a mass Of twist
ed iron and splintered wood.
If this profiteering monster is
allowed to continue while long
err the great American middle
classes will become disposed to re-
move the bride from the bolshe-
visit element. and then the profit
teer can see his ill-gotten accumu-
lations take the smoke route into
nothingness. The sad part Of it
all is that many an innocent per-
son will be compelled to suffer
with him.

It is generally conceded that
Nezperce is a good business point.
There's lots of hustle here, anl g
good many dollars filter through
the local Golfers in the course of a
year. Nothing wrong about this
no. But accompanying this con-
dition is something Of the usual
lack of social life. This lack is
not I'M quality. No community
can beat this in that respect. But
it is more in quantity. The social
functions are too much circum-
scribed; not general enough III
their nature. where all neighbors
can meet all neighbors and main
tain a proper wholesome acquain-
lance and goodfellowship. 1t is N
phase of our life well to think

Each man is trying to get u
value for his product which will
return a fair profit on his invest
ment and d fair wage for his work.
This is reasonable. The fact that
some have an opportunity Of tax
ing an undue profit. and take adj
vantage of the opportunity should
not make us distrustful Of all men
from whom we must buy.

barons take off their coats, roll up
their sleeves and work like beav-
ers for the ratification of the
League. What the tariff grafters
want is not going to benefit the
rest of us any more than to pro-
vide us with the vitality required
to keep on making profits for said
grafterS.
