The truth oi the matter that overwhelming majority Of
the people this country lust folks regardless ol he'r

are snobs and few parasites but they are not plentiful
enough 10 make worth while worry much about them Peo-

Will Hays, Economist.

| Will Hays, the postmaster general,
may 90 down in history as the founder
Of an entirely new school of economics.
In speech in this city a day or two
ago, in which he attempted to formu-
late a programme for an industrial re-
naissance in the United States, he laid
down the postulate that "a man should
contribute to the cost of society in pro-
portion as he consumes the labor OF
society,"" In its practical application
this would mean that the citizen who
rears large family and seeks to give
his children every educational and cul ?
tural advantage, thus being a large
consumer of the labor of society"
should be taxed more heavily than a
misery bachelor receiving the same in
come. 1t is evident that Col Roosevelt )
mantle did not fall upon the shoulders
of VIII Hays. If Hays is right. then
Congress committed a terrible blunder
when it provided a greater income tax
exemption for married than for single
persons and for persons with depend
ents than for those without. If this
Haysian premise is right, then there
is but one conclusion to the whole mat
ter--the country must have the sales
tax. And that's the Ethiopian in the
woodpile. VIII HAYS is for 1t.
But, Mr.. Hays was not content with
laying down just one new economic
principle in the course of the evening
Reduced to its simplest terms, his ar.
gument for the sales tax was based up
on the wholly original idea that the way
to encourage production is to dis

DIGGING UP NEW ENGLAND.
DR.. Moorehead's Quest for Indian
Relics.

| If group of business like men call
at your home sometime in the near
future and ask your permission TO dig
lup the front yard, promising to put the
soil and turf back ujst as they found
it, don't turn them down-they prob
ably will prove to be DR. Warren X.
| Moorehead, member of the national
board of Indian commissioners and
curator of the department of arche-
ology at Phillips Andover academy, and
his force of delivers into the prehistoric.
They have been busy for some time in
Maine. where they found some 1900
articles of pre- historic manufacture
and added vastly to the store of human
knowledge of the little known people
who occupied New England before the
coming Of the white man. Now they
are planning to make explorations in
lower Connecticut valley along the
coast from New Haven to Providence
and in Massachusetts,. Their explora-
ton will cover eight years and they
should have the cooperation Of local
historical and scientific societies, as
well as the public.
Writing in the current Atlantic, DR..
Moorehead recounts the valuable dis
coveries made in the shell heaps and
hitherto unknown sites of Indian vii
lagos in Maine, many Of which are Of
such antiquity that is not possible to
say in what century the tribes flour,
ishcd, but that they preceded by many
generations the tribes made familiar TO
us by colonial history seems definitely
established.
While the Maine discoveries are Of
great Importance, DR.. Moorehead looks
for even more impressive ones in
Connecticut. "0ur greastest Indian
population lay along the coast" hhe
said, ''the lower Connecticut valley,
Marthas Vineyard and Rhode Island
1t is here that the larger villages Of
Pequots, Narragnsetts, and Others
were located. On the large town sites
aond the cemeteries one should be able
to discover articles indicating tribal
commerce with bands living in New
York or New Jersey, and also to obtain
specimens Of aboriginal art, since the
more skilled workmen would nstur ally
located the populous communities.
Hence when the survey inspects the site
of King Philips town. the Pequot's
fort and similar spots, it is hoped that
the lower layers Of the ashpits will
prove rich in evidence"
Finding the sites Of unknown villages
is not easy, and the work is not with
out its romantic side. When the survey
come in Connecticut we hope it viii
not find us lacking interest or willing
ness TO cooperate. That such co-opera-
ton has not been given as freely as
expected seems 70 be intimated by DR..
Moorehead's statement that only the
foreigners living in the lower Connect
cut have caused us trouble" Whatever
trouble these dwellers within our state I
have caused must be due to misunder- |
standing, and ways TO avoid it should I
be found.-Hartford Times.

handsome one.
Mr.. Roosevelt was so long in public
life. so active there and in one Office OF
another achieved SO much. the list OF
his performances is inspiring for its
variety and consequence.
As civil service commissioner he
greatly strengthened the cause Of civil
service reform. As assistant secretary
Of the navy he early saw the danger
Of the controversy over Cuba, and
helped put the country in condition
to meet Spain on the water. As colonel
Of the Rough Riders he made an at
tractive figure in the Spanish war. As
governor Of New York he served with
such distinction he was nominated for
vicc-president and. succeeding his chief
in the White HOUSE. he crowded into
his seven and a half years a. president
many acts Of merit and wide distinc-
iion.
But the act topping all the others
was his service in the matter Of the
Panama canal. He was the oyershad-
owing figure in what proved 10 be '-the
