make the expense Of conducting retail
business so high as to necessitate a
high gross profit.
When, instead of following this
course, the government resorts to prose-
cution regardless Of economic condi.
tions, it may succeed in soaring some
business men out of business, but will
benefit no one.
However, the business men suffering
from this policy are largely to blame
for it. Most of them have let them
selves be misled into believing the in
terest of predatory privilege to be their
own. They have consequently upheld
the opposition to all fundamental meas.
ures of social justice. They have stood
by the interests in fighting the single
tax, abolition of private control Of
railroads, free trade and measures rec
ognized as steps toward these reforms.
Now when persistence in refusal to
adopt such measures has resulted in an
abnormal high cost of living, and vic
Tins are needed whose sacrifice will
detract popular attention from tue
true cause, the unprivileged defender
Of privilege finds himself selected for
that function. Possibly some will now
do some thinking.

favors at tho hand Of government, the
repeal Of income and excess profit laws
and tho substitution Of taxes on con-
sumption, of the suppression of all agi-
tation aimed at the profiteers, and the
enlargement of opportunities for exploit
tation.
No longer will it be necessary to
hold conferences in the Offices Of gov
crnment officials, or in hotel rooms and
corridors. If business man wishes
to have conference with government
officials a messenger will bring them
around to headquarters, where every
thing will be conveniently arranged for
the prompt dispatch Of governmental
functions.
The Chamber of Commerce of the
United States is the medium through
which "big business operates. It is
in fact a lobby maintained by great
corporations, maintaining constantly
<'men at washington who know our
language and talk our language as a
leading business man expressed it.
The people will continue to be with
out representation, unless they scan
carefully the records of congressman

PUBLIC HAS DUTIES
AS WELL As RIGHTS

Before the public has valid
claim for the full recognition of its
rights on the part of labor, it must
have previously assumed it's respons-
Utilities and have done its part in pre-
venting conditions of labor which are
not only inlolerable to labor, but
which are a menace to the stability
and the welfare of the nation itself"
says John P. Frey, editor Interna-
tional Molders' Journal
''The public" says this trade union
ist, manifested little interest in the
long hours and low wages Of street
car employees, until one morning it
was forced to walk down town be-
cause the street car employees would
no longer endure the intolerable con-
ditions of their employment.
THE miners have received such
small wages that they could not suppl
ort their families in decency They
have been prevented from organizing
by bands of hired mercenaries whose
existence has been permitted by the
authorities; their members and their
organizers have been killed in cold
blood, but the public took no ade-
quate steps to prevent these outrage
Gus and un-American conditions.
But the public, which had so ef-
fectively evaded and ignored its re-
sponsibilities, clamored for legislative
and administrative relief the moment
the miners went on strike.
"The public, in respect to it's rights,
is very much Ike many employers.

E MANILA, p. I.-Soothed. in spirit
ana prospecting in worldly goods in
the 20 years since he led the wild
oolo-armed Tagalogs against Ameri-
ca soldiers, Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo
speaks as the most popular leader of
the Filipinos.
The writer saw the famous: warrior
at his country home in the village of
kaWit, midway between Manila and
CaV1te. In the large rambling frame
house were chickens and pigs, while
a dozen barefoot, but clean children
were playing in the big grounds in
the rear. Across the road in the nipa-
matched huts. standing on poles like
stnts above the ground, with more
children and the same livestock,
mothers were gossiping and smoking
cigarettes, while leaning out of the
windows. No men were present It
was Sunday and the weekly cockfieht
demanded their attention. Adjoining
the residence is the village school. the
grounds of which Aguinaldo donates,
Surgeons Were "Carcless."
General Aguinaldo was home after
a year in a hospital. He had been
operated on for appendicitis and the
surgeons has carelssly sewed. up an
assortment Of tools inside the wound
and it was necessary to operate Sec
ond time. However, fate decreed that
neither soldiers nor surgeons should
kill him, and the hardy veteran sur
vlved. The effects of the ordeal were
visible when my host. slim man of
medium height, grave. and pleasa MT
face, with jet black pompadour,
and dressed entirely in white, entered
the parlor into which one of the bare
foot boys had ushered me. Though
he speaks English and Spanish. Asui-
naldo preferred to talk in his native
Tagalog, and called in a young secre-
tary to interpret.
Il have kept the oath I made to
the United States not to talk politics,
but now that the Americans are ask
ing the views of the Filipinos, will
reply" he said. Our people are hap
Ply, contended and more prosperous
than they ever dreamed of becoming
as the result of the American rule.
The schools have taught them to
think, and industries and commerce
have shown them the rewards of
work. Now we want the independ-
ence which was promised to us.

SCIENCE FINDS WOOD
LIGHTER THAN CORK

Science has scored again! A., tree
which heretofore has been regarded
as useless has now been found to be
one Of the most valuable products of
nature. It is balso wood, which is
rapidly supplanting the old-fashioned
cork ifesavers. Balso wood is lighter
than cork, and, strange as it may
seem, is as durable as spruce!.
Many years ago Capt. A.. P. Lundin
was a seafaring man. In those days
the lifesaving appliances" aboard the
ships were not what may be termed
perfect, and Captain Lundin devoted
much of his time to experimenting
with devices for improving their eff
cheney.
In 1906 Captain Lundin gave up
the sea and devoted himself to the
development of marine lifesaving
equipment.
Here is where balsa wood comes in.
Captain Lundin found that something
more efficient was needed than the
ordinary cork lifesavers. He remem-
| bered a wood used by the natives of
Ecuador for building their RATS. The
wood was lighter than any other, and
| it was possible for a man to carry
| u log with ease. Captain Lundin i'm
mediarely obtained a cample Of this
| wood, but, after mny experiments, al
most decided it would not dc. AL
though it was much lighter than
cork, it was difficult to preare, it de-
cayed rapidly and gradually absorbed
water Many attempts were made to
treat the wood, but without success.
Finally. however, process was per-
fected whereby waterproofing mix
ture could be brought to the center
of any piece of timber, coating the
cells and ducts with an extremely thin
permanent film. The treatment was
developed and an important business
was built around the large elliptical
ring-shaped RATS Of balsa, which are
of sufficient dimensions to- float IA
to 60 persons.
! The balsa tree in appearance re-
sembles the north American cotton
wood, the bark being fairly smooth,
while the wood looks like pine. The
leaves are very large on a young
plant often two or three feet across,
growing snalled as. the trees grow
older.-Scientific American.

Aguinaldo Holds FiIipinos Should
Be Granted Promised Endependence
Not Satisfying to Filipinos.


THE territorial form of govern
mcnt which the Americans on the is
land, led by Senator George S. Fair
childd, are advocating does not satisfy
the FilipinOs, much as we appreciate
the honor OF becoming American CT
tiZens.
Congress decided that it would be
impossible For the PHILIPPINES to be-
come an American territory.
THE Filipinos are able to govern
themselves and the country will be
able to survive as an Independent ma
ton, though it is small compared
with other nations. The recent war
changed the worlds ideas, and now it
is considered right that the greater
civilized nations should protect and
encourage the smaller, newer and
weaker countries
Faith in Civilization.
When it was suggested in response
to this altruistic optimism as to world
policies that many Americans believ
ed the aftermath of the war proved
that the stronger nations were eager;
to gobble the smaller ones, General
Aguinaldo gazed for a moment
through the window at a peaceful
rustic scene without. \ water buffalo
was wallowing in mudhole, happy
school children were playing and the
cigarette-sm oking mothers were lazi-
ly waving palms.
It was 20 years since the crack of
rifles the cries of fighting men and
the glow Of burning villages disturbed
the countryside, despite the world
conflict. It was difficult to realize
that the strength of America, 5000
miles away, had been the protecting
power.

zation,' said my host.

THE DAILY STAR.

Tho Minneapolis Daily Star, the new
farmer-laboz paper, made it's first ap-
pearahce last Thursday. It was on the
streets Of Duluth late that evening.
BY Friday morning every copy of the
paper had been sold. The daily sales
are growing and the publishers are very
well pleased with the patronage they
are receiving in Duluth.
The Daily Star contains a general
review Of the current news, written
from an entirely different angle than
that sent out by the Associated Press.
Its editorial matter is of high order.
It breathes the spirit Of the times and
there is a punch in every paragraph.
There is 4 liberal amount of labor and
farm news, with special stories from
well known writer's on social and eco
:nemic questions.
The business interests are not very
we'll represented in the Daily Star.
Not Minneapolis merchant is using
advertising space. The reason for this
is readily understood by the farmers
and wage earnsrs Of the state.
If the labor, farmer and liberal PEG.

port it merits it will soon be the most
powerful factor in Minnesota journal.
