% IT'S mighty nice thing to be

% IT'S a mighty nice thing to be OA able to step up to a news stand and get your hometown paper fresh every day, for no matter how far you get away, as numbered by miles, you are never SO far distant from your own front porch that you don't want to know what's going on among your old friends. So we are telling you about a newsstand where you are very liable to find the very paper you want. This man keeps most of the principal western papers, and some of the larger eastern dailies. He also keeps the more popular magazines. The fates played a cruel trick on the proprietor of this place years ago and deprived him of his sight, but they didn't take his business foresight away, and he aims to keep the knd of reading matter the people want. His is about the most popular news stand in town, the only one facing east.

Another Questionnaire for presiden- tial aspirants, this time relating to cam paign expenditures, was made public this week by Labor, the weekly paper published by the IA recognized railroad labor organizations. Reports that some candidates were spending large sums were given as the reason for sub mission of the questionnaire, which was in the form of a letter to a dozen democratic and republicans, mentioned for the nomination.
 The questions follow:
 "First-How is your campaign fn- anced? How much have you expended to date, and how much do you expect to expend before the national conven- ton of your party meets? Will you be good enough to furnish the names of the contributors to your campaign fund or to any fund which is to be used in your behalf, and the amounts of the contributions? Will you before your national convention meets make fur ther sworn statement of expenditures together with lists of contributors and furnish the same to the press?
 "Second-Are you willing to join in an appeal to congress to immediately enact legislation which will compel all candidates for the presidency to make sworn returns to some official of the national government, showing all moneys expended by the candidates, or any one acting in their behalf, together with the names of all contributors to the candidates campaign fund, or to any fund which may be raised in their behalf"

WHY THEY KNOCK IT.
Profiteers Don't Like Profits Be-
 ing Made by Shipping Board.

Chairman Payne of the United States Shipping Board has informed the Sen- ate committee on Merchant Marine that government operations III the shipping business resulted i'll a net profit of $166,- 493, ,00O, up to June 30 last. /In addition, the War Department and the Food Ad- ministration owe the Shipping Board $165, ,000 GOO because of service rendered.
 Thus the Governments net profit from the operation of its ships was $331 ,0O0.O0O
 This is such an outstanding showing that one wonders why the facts were not given to the people at an earlier date. The probable explanation is to be found in the fact that the interna- tional shipping trust has been making determined efforts to induce the gov ernfnent to dispose of its ships at ridiculously low prices. The scheme has been actually consummated to a certain extent.
 A few weeks ago Chairman Payne endeavored to sell all the informed Ger man ships for fraction of tkeir value He was restrained largely through the activities of William Randolph Hearst who instituted court proceedings and aroused public sentiment through the columns of his great newspapers. i.
 The representatives of 6ie shipping trust are not discouraged, for they and their friends, in and out of Congress, continue to demand that the govern ment get out of the shipping business, and give Wall street chance to make further additions to its swollen mil lions.
 According to Chairman Payne, the United States is now operating 3o7 ships, of 8,333,0O0 tons. While he was compelled to admit that the business had proven tremendously profitable, he insisted that he should be sustained in his policy of disposing of the ships.
 The record of the Shipping Board is all the more remarkable, in view of the fact that is we'll known in Washing tonS that the affairs of the board have been conducted in the most extravagant fashion, the salaries paid in practically every department being the highest in the government service.
