UNCLE SANS A
PROFTTEER ON
DINING CARS!
BY RICHARD sPILLANE.

The railroads are run by the gov
ernment.. as you know. Incidental to
transporting you over the land Uncle
Sam feeds you il you pay his price.
But what a price!
For . cents he will furnish a few
! slices OF sweet potatoes. He will tell
you they are braised, whatever that
! may mean. There is no such word
known to American photographers.
Whatever braised may mean the slices
of potatoes come to you with evil
dence of having BEEN toasted. as it
were, and nothing more.
The government paid perhaps cents
for the stuff it charges % cents for
when served to you. The different-3
cents-is too much for peeling a sweet
potato. slicing 1t and toasting a few
particles.
For % cents the government serves
a slice of honey dew melon. A whole
melon costs 70 cents retail. The gov
ernment probably pays 60 cents. buy
ing in quantity. sSe melon is cut in
sixteen segments. taere Is no cook
ing, nothing but the siicing and the
serving. For what Uncle Sam pays
probably 80 cents he charges A0o
For as much. white potato as repre-
sents 1 cent in the raw state Uncle
Sam charges 25 cents in the cooked
state.
For meat that he pays II cents for
in uncooked form he charges s. cents
for when cooked and servea.
And. after Uncle Sam robs you, II
Is your duty to fee the colored gentle
man who assisted him in the oper-
alton.
If the government wishes to reduce
the high cost OF living II might begin
in the dining car. Prices there have
been advanced from 50 to 100 per cent
in the last year. And they were high
enough then to curl your hair.
1t Is idle for Washington TO preach
against profteering or proceed against
profteers when the government is a
gross offender itself.

POLITICS
n In

Men and women voters who have
asked William H. Anderson, New
York superintedent of the Anti-Sa-
loon League, in which political par
ty they should enroll in order to in
sure enforcement OF prohibition
laws. were advised today to enroll
with the Republican party, as dry"
control of the Democratic party in
New York was practically impossi-
bic because of Tammany Hall. Mr..
Anderson explained that the Anti
Saloon League was nom partisan,
and recommends for support dry
Republicans. dry Democrats and
PrOhibitionists. and has no afiIiation
with any political party
Mr.. Anderson's procurement
continued:
But. just as In the South. all
those interested in prohibition must
be enrolled Democrats in order to
vote at the primaries for dry men
who can be elected. so in New York
state Prohibitionists must be en-
rolled in the Republican party to
help when most needed.
"A governor, the whole state SEN
&ta as well as the entire assembly.
together with CONGRESSMAN and
United States Senator. will be elected
in New York State in 1870. No dry
enrolment anywhere else than in the
Republican party can have any part
in the selection of the candidates who
will probably be elected.
For the dry element to get con-
troll of the Democratic party Is i'm
possible in this State because of the
grip of Tammany Hall. Dry candi-
dates can be nominated in the Demo-
cratic party with hope of success
only in a very few rural sections.
THE Republican party has made an
issue of prohibition. and the ratitica-
ton OF the Eighteenth Amendment by
New York State would have been
possible IL it had not been made a
Republican party measure. There is
a strong wet element in the Republi-
can party, but it is not now in con-
troll and cannot regain control II be-
levers in prohibition increasingly
mass their influence and vote within
that party by becoming enrolled men,
bers of it. Such enrolment does not
bind one thereafter to vote the
straight Republican ticket at the No
vember election, but merely to sup
port the nominees of that party in
the main, and thereby gives the vot-
ers so enrolled the privilege OF voting
in the Republican party primaries
and helping determine the character
OF Republican nominees
"Of course any Individual Demo-
cratic candidate who is right must he
treated fairly and any wet or un-
satisfactory individual Republican
candidate should be defeated wher-
ever his Democratic opponent is right
ALREADY some liquor Democrats
are doing in New York what the
liquor men do in every State when
the majority party gets out from
under liquor control. They are shift
ing their party enrolment to the Re-
publican party for the express pur-
pose of participating in it's primaries
and in an effort to help the wet Re-
publican ticket even though they may
intend themselves to vote the Demo-
cratic ticket at the election"

New Brand OF Good Iuek.

Since the friends OF ROBERT L
MILLER have SHE'D his chapeau into
the ring as a candidate for Republi-
can delegate from the District TO the
Presidential nominating convention at
Chicago, he has been made the sub
ject OF several good stories. Probation
Officer GEORGE A HEANY. Of the
Police Court, was telling OF Millers
big winnings at the Havre de Grace
race track, and in other directions.
Finally he said:

@Dsekedv the Appeilatis.. :

FRANK HOWARD, who tried 70
break into the newspaper game as a
cub" reporter when was calamity
man on the late Evening News Of this
city. about twenty-six years ago,
passed through Washington recently
en- route to Texas where he Is a cat
tie magnate. At that time Bud
Eaggleston and other reyivalists were
holding evangelistic services in all
parts of the District. Several thes-
pians who had proven to be bad actors
in the game OF life claimed they had
been converted by Bud" and his
workers. Some OF them afterwards
became exhorters and speakers at the
gospel services in tents and churches.
Bud" who knew the value Of pub
licity. would play his converts up in
this fashion: There will be expert
ence' talks by Bill Jones, the reformed
actor; Sam Smith. the reformed pugil-
ist; Jack Green, the reformed rum
seller; Jack Lee. the reformed min
strel. and so on. Finally Bud" in
terested Frank Howard in his work
and induced him to consent 10 make
several experience" talks. A few
days later Howard was passing along
Pennsylvania avenue, when 20 his
horror he read one of Buds" big
posters announcing a meeting in one
Of the most prominent churches. The
headliner of the meeting was given
as Frank Howard. the Reformed
Reporter" and explained what a
thrilling tale of the sins Of the under
world he would unfold, and incident
ally give IAN expose of Washington
gamblers and their crooked deals"
Howard informed me that after
reading how Bud" Eaggleston had
billed him he made a quick depart
ure from the city. going to Baltimore
and later to New York.
What hurt worst" he added. was
his reference to me as a reformed
reporter Had he announced me as
Christian. or even Christlanized
journalist. might have stuck"
