PROGRESS AND THE BATHTUB

Fred Kelly, in The Nations Busi- ness, says that whenever man starts to launch new enterprise or sell a useful but hitherto unheard-of article let him stop and recall what hap pened when bathtubs were first in- troduced. Within the memory of many people stil living, the bathtub was lambasted as a menace to demo- cratic simplicity and danger to health.
 An ordinance was introduced in Philadelphia-and almost passed-to prohibit bathing between November and March. Boston made bathing unlawful except on medical advice. Virginia imposed tax on bathtub owners of $50 year Yet every bedy knows now that having a bath tub in the house is a first-rate idea. Bathing was probably more needed then. But people resented bathtub5

LEST YOU FORGET.

There is still a good deal of cotton being held in this county from last year and even two years ago, so we don't suppose it is necessary to again call the attention of the growers to the fact that it will be to their inter- est to raise as little cotton as possible this year, and every year hereafter for that matter.
 But the planting season will soon be at hand and some of the farmers may forget the facts that have been pounded home during the past sever al months. Many of them are liable not have hit upon just what to plant in place of cotton and when the time comes to put the land in cultivation if they have the seed they are liable to go ahead and plant their usual cotton acreage.
 A large crop this year means that cotton will sell around five cents per pound and if there is any man who thinks he can raise cotton for 9 nickel let him try it.
 The bankers and merchants are interested in the question no less than the farmers themselves andy they can have a larger influence in keeping down the cotton acreage.
 The present outlook for cotton is very depressing and any crop at all will be more profitable than the fleecy staple.

PICKLE PUBLIC OPINION.

Sometimes we catch ourselves wondering over the worth-while-ness of public popularity in these good old United States. We jeer at France with the inconsistent, constantly charming Parisian populace's verdicts that seem to veer with every wind that blows. And it's only joke with us at the quick turn-overs that come to pass with almost every season in Mexico and our neighbor South American republics. But do we do things much better here? We won der-now and then-if we really do.
 Here's the matter that-prompts the pessimistic thought: Consider the fate that seems to have befallen our great party leader and President, Woodrow Wilson. Twenty months ago the greatest man in the whole wide world; today, so fallen from his high estate that even Congress does not hesitate to flout him. In Shakespeare's Illuminating words,
 But yesterday, he might have stood against the world; Today, none so poor to do him reverence"
 We are reminded of the change more pointedly when we see even the Democratic beneficiaries of his per sonal and official favor in House and Senate deserting his banner in these last, fast fading hours of his presi- dency. Man, after man, they recor their votes against his judgment and his policies. When we recall how these same men prided themselves on their Wilsonism but a few months ago we wonder if the words Loyal ty' and Consistency" shall remain in their vocabulary.
 Saddest of all, when we remember that in the Sentate only few days ago of all the Senators voting, Dem oerats and Republicans alike, only one lone stateman stood by our Pres ident. Only one Democrat held up the hands of ''the titular leader" of the Democratic Party. And that Senator and Democrat hailed from Arkansas-and his name was William K. Kirby.
 If ever there was generous poli- tical act done by any man in high public life; if ever there was politi- cal returning of a healing action for a hurtful one; was not this vote of Senator Kirby in his lone stand with that President whose bitter words were partly responsible for his de- feat in the recent primary, an act that makes you feel proud to see? We honor it as high and knightly deed to one sorely beset and deserted. But time will bring a revulsion of sentiment-and Wilson will come again into his own. History will yet record him as among the mighty of the earth. This great man whose sole thought was to enthrone Democ- racy over all the world and whose words brilliantly shone above it's darkened horizon will live when the men who deserted him in his last hours of leadership will live only in the files of the Congressional Record.

GOVERNMENTAL ECONOMY.

An example of the methods used in the conduct of the governments business was brought to light in an election contest the other day, which shows one of the reasons why it will cost $4, 0,000,000 to run the af- fairs of this country next year.
 An election contest which was filed two years ago has just been decided. John R. Pharr filed a contest for the seat in Congress from the Tenth Pennsylvania district, which was be- ing held by Patrick McLane.
 The case was decided in favor of Pharr just six days prior to the end ing of the term for which it was de- cided he was duly elected.
 Now Pharr will serve the remaining six days of the term and draw all the emoluments to which he would have been entitled had he served the entire two years. This will amount to $21,0 or $3,5O0 day for his six days service.
 In the meantime Mr. McLane has already drawn his salary and pick, ings from the government for the term and will not be asked to pay back into the treasury any part of this sum.
 In other words, it has been decided that bit of scull-duggery in elec- tions has been indulged in and the guilty party has had all the honor and drawn his pay and the govern ment takes the position of being the goat.
 In cases of contest the salary of the office should be held up until the matter has been decided and then paid to the one who has been duly elected.
 Congress will fight and wrangle sometimes for weeks over paying a just claim and yet it will pay over this $21 ,000 without protest.
 This contest also brings to light on another interesting subject and that is the amount which the several members draw from the government. In this case the salary and pickings amounted to $10,50O per year.
 The salary of a member of Con gress IS $7,500 per year, with a mile age allowance of 10 cents per mile. If Congressman from Pennsylvania, which is only short distance from Washing, draws the sum of 5000 for mileage it would be interesting to know what the members from California, some 2,0O0 miles distant, draw
 Some of the members of Congress think their salaries are not sufficient and bill is proposed to increase the pay to $12,000 per annum, which would give them all the way from S15,5O0 up as compensation. It is not unlikely that this bill will become law after the next Congress goes Tn, but there may be enough honest men in the body to defeat any such a raid on the public treasury.
 If such salary grab is proposed the people of the country can defeat 1t by making vigorous and decided kick against any such high handed footing of the treasury.
 This is only one example of the gross methods used in operating this government. In every department evidences of the highest extravagance have been pointed out, but congress never turns hand to stop the fright ful and wanton waste.
