Many people have been urgin"
the farmer on to greater produc-
ton this season as means Of re
ducing the cost of living. Ard
there they stop.
Apparently they do not take
into consideration the fact that
the food speculator is in reality
the one who is robbing the poor
and filching the rich in order to
line his own pockets. He it is
who has done most to force the
price of foodstuffs to almost pro-
hibitive heights.
What we need is an old time
curb bit that is big enough and
cruel enough to bring the specula-
tors to their knees and keep them
there. H,a> I..,.xt
The farmer should not be asked
to become eyerybody's goat.
News dispatches indicate. that
a great influx of immigration is
to be expected soon from foreign
countries, and especially from
some Of the German states.
We have plenty of room in this
country for reputable and law
abiding citizens from any country,
but our doors should be DELICIOUS
lk closed to trouble makers of
every description. We have too
many of that breed here now for
our own good.
III some means could be pro-
vided whereby the American
farmer could secure the necessary
farm help from over the seas it
would be blessing.
And since the average Ameri-
can girl has graduated from other

Strong minds, indomitable
courage and endless patience will
be required to restore this coun-

istinp before the outbreak of the
European war.
Today practically all lines of
business are conducted on an al
normal scale. Wages. living,
everything is out Of plum, and
the prevailing tendency is TO
force things upward.
This of course can not last In

American people back to earth

clan, the Foundation of the
Science of Geometry.

Euclid was an ancient mathemats
clan, who is said by some to have
fiourished in the third Gentry before
the Christian era. 1t is generally
held that he was a Greek, but the date
and place of his birth are unknown.
1t is generally held that much of his
work was done at Alexandria, Egypt,
which in those ancient times was a
famous seat of learning and the CEN
ter of extensive commerce. The most
famous work of Euclid that has come
down to us is the Elements of Geom.
etry in 10 books The first six are the
most valuable. They contain the
foundation of geometry. on which is
based several branches of higher
mathematics. These books are still
used in schools and colleges. The
next three books deal with the prop
critics of numbers but they are super
seeded by modern arithmetic. Euclid
also left other ,sorks. such as treatises
on harmony and optics.

sional election OF 1910, and which all
election of 1912.
According to a story that was told
of Taft, a curious stranger asked a
gatekeeper at the Union station in
Washington where he would stand the
best chance of seeing the presi-
dent in the few spare hours that he
had between trains. Right where
you are" was the reply. Hes al
ways either taking train or getting
off of one.
Taft was the first president to draw
the present salary of $4,000. Con-
gress had also adopted, two years be-
fore he came in. the custom OF allow
ing $4,000 yearly for the travelling
EXPENSES of the president. and he be-
came the great presidential traveller,
making record of 10000 miles in
four wears, as he went about the
country appealing for reversal of
the verdict against his administration.
In vain he strove to turn back the tide,
which only Sported with him.
After having elected him by 1900
Ooo plurality. the people parted with
Taft more in sorrow than in anger.
They did not question that he was a
good president. but that is secondary
consideration. A president must be
nrst of all politician and a leader.

EXTHEN Roosevelt and Taft rode
wv up Pennsylvania avenue on
March a 1909, it was the first time
since Jackson and Van Buren, had
passed that way side by side, more
than 20 years before, that retiring
president would not have preferred an
other seat mate and successor than the
one whom the fortunes of politics
had thrust upon him.
Roosevelt alone selected his success
Or.
Naturally, everyone assumed that we
were to have a Roosevelt admin
istration by another name, and it was
expected in the campaign that the
ex-president would not go farther
away from the White House than
Oyster Bay. Instead, he plunged into
the depths of Africa.
The fate of William Howard Taft
would be pathetic if he himself had
not met it and borne it with a smile
He was ADLER, more upright, more
independent than some far more sue
cessfuls presidents. But by bent and
training he was a judge, and the
White House is no place for judge.
AS lawgiver and governor OF
Manila, Taft had won the confidence
of his oriental subjects, and rather
than desert his post, before his task
was finished, he sacrificed the dearest
ambition of his life. In a year and
a half Roosevelt had him in his cab
met as secretary of war-and soon
had him in his eye for the presidency.
Roosevelt had the weakness of his
strength He thought he was strong
enough to make a president. But
real presidents are born, not made.
The moment Roosevelt was gone,
the standpatters, the .reactionary
forces, emerged from their seven and
one-half years in the cyclone CELLAR
The moment the political broncho felt
the tenderfOot on it's back, it bucked
and threw Taft from the seat of leader
ship, The next thing the rank and
file Of Republicans knew the party
was slipping back into the old rut
from which Roosevelt had jerked il

Just after I thought they had left

True Efficiency.

Efficiency is a matter of the head
as well as the hands. 1t can never be
a purely mechanical virtue, for true
efficiency has its origin in careful
thought. The man who forms the

danger of becoming mere machine.
