Like Oliver Twist he cries for more.
Too popular to care for the support
OF ordinary politicians, he has grown
so self-impOrtant that he has thrown
all factions in the air-one after an

That is, he has abandoned every fac

HIGH COST OF STRIKES.

Since the beginning OF tho coal and
railroad strikes very little has been
said about the high cost of such dis
putes 10 the American people. Those
who are not directly concerned realize
In general sort or way that II is
going 10 aid 10 the already high cost
of living, but comparatively few know
how directly st Is going TO affect them
The National Industrial Conference
Board has compiled figures which esti-
mate that the 1,250.000 idle American
wage workers are losing the income
OF ten million or more hours every
day. This money will never come
back 10 them. IL Is gone forever. 1t
passes" as one writer has ph-ased 1t.
with the ticking OF the clock" IL is
difficult TO arrive at the exact loss In
wages, but one estimate is that s3.-
600 900 a day is being lost during the
continuation OF the two strikes Need
less TO say, the loss Is not entirely on
ihe side of the men; Il falls on both
sides alike
In the end. after the workers have
lost their millions in wages and the
operators ana railroads nave iOsL tnelE
millions IN profits, the innocent by
s.ander, the so-called average citizen
/ has to pay his part OF the bill. II we
take the item of coal alone the cost will
be most discouraging. II Is estimated
that in soft coal there will be an in.
crease of s20,0O0,O00 n week to tht
consumer. And every factory and mil
that is forced TO pay more for It's ,ae
Will pass the addition on - the ulti
mate consumer. Just what the addet
cost will be on anthracite coal canno
he predicted, but 1t is enough to 50,
that we are now paying more thar

What are called the indirect losses
caused by these srikes would b
startling if ii were possible to rcduc
them TO figures.
In the face of these indisputed fact
il is hard 10 view the continuance q
the strikes with patience. Fer thei

Unconquered stands Mt. Everest,
Untouched by human foot his crest.
But he shall fall with all the rest.

A TARIFF ROMANCE.

The United States government spent
millions of dollars on the irrigation Of
tho desert in Arizona, and especially
the Imperial Valley OF California, with
the result that the settlers want TO
grow long staple cotton to compete
with the Egyptian cotton. The re-
moter effect on the American people
OF that irrigation enterprise Is that
long staple cotton carries a. duty OF
cents pound In the Senate tariff
bill.
The California and Arizona Sena-
tors, both Republicans and Democrats
forgot ther political differences and
united without shame in clamoring for
duty of 10 cents pound. and fail
ing In that, for one of 10 cents. The
duty will remain cents unless il is
increa sed In conference committee.
The economies Of the case is that
the American people will pay a tax
on all goods into which long staple
cotton enters for the special benefit
OF two counties. one in Arizona and
one in California which their money
originally placed on the inhabitablC
earth by means of expensive irriga.
