OOD ppt wales eR N LE ik Dr.PRICE'S CREAM BAKING POWDER Its use a protection and a guarantee against alum Selfishness of Special Privileges. Ido not know whether the insur- gents are going to accomplish much or not. Sometimes I get the notion that in the end they will not be able to get anywhere. It seems to me at times that they are butting up against a stone wall of selfishness that they will never be able to Knock down. Iam for them, not because I ex- pect them to bring about a political millenium or that I expect them to better things a great deal, but be-, cause they are against the general principle of special privileges. Maybe they are just nibbling round the edges of the evil so to speak, and not really ; getting to the heart of the trouble, | but it is better to clip off the edges of the evil than not to try to clip at all. The ideal condition in this republic would be an absolutely fair deal for every man, woman and child and that would mean the abolishment of | special privileges. The thing that} stands in the way of the accomplish- ment of this ideal is the innate selfish- ness of the vast majority of mankind. | Even good men who doa good deaj! of talking about the wrong of grant- | ing special privileges in general are | ready to get special privileges for themselves. The thing that prevented the get- ting of a fair tariff bill was the fact that most of the members of both houses had some pet special privi- leges they wanted taken eare of and | in order to get their pet special privi- | leges taken care of they had to vote | for the special privileges of the other | fellows. There were the worsted | woolen lords and the cotton mill lords | determined that none of the inordi-| nate and unfair protection that had | been given to them should be taken | away and so they made the deal with members here and there all over the country to take care of their little | special privileges in return for help- ing the big special privileges. However, I can see, I think, a ray of hope for better things coming out | of this very selfishness that is born in man. Education is driving this) thougt into the minds of the masses | of men, that there are not enough | set of single carriage harness. special privileges to go round. If the government is to be run on the spec- ial privileges plan it is certain that a few will reap most of the benefits and that in proportion as the few get more than their share the many will get less than their share. The only way in which the masses can get a fair deal is to abolish special privi- leges altogether.—T. A, McNeal in| Farmers Mail and Breeze. | Public Sale.

Washington, Feb.—The suggestion from Governor Hadley of his inten- tion to have submitted to the voters under the initiative and referendum clause of the constitution a particular law framed by him for home rule in cities, and also a law redistricting the state for different purposes, is attract- ing considerable attention among Mis- sourians in Washington. Democrats here see the danger of having partisan measures of this kind submitted in the absence of a counter proposition and with a multitude of other things claiming attention, the proposition of the governor might be agreed to by a majority of those vot- ing thereon. It has been suggested by Senator Stone and others that if the governor intends to play this kind of politics, then the leading Democrats of the state, particularly those in the last legislature, should get together at once and prepare bills on the subjects indicated and take the necessary steps to have them submitted at the same time, so that the voters may choose between them. What Happened to James. Pitteburg Chronicle-Telegraph, - A very subdued looking boy o! about 13 years, with a long scratch on his nose and an air of general dejec- tion, came to his teacher in one of the Boston public schools and handed her anote before taking his seat, says Lippincott’s. The note was as fol- lows: “Miss B——: Please excuse James for not being thare yesterday. He played trooant, but I guess you don’t need to lick him for it, as the boy he played trooant with an’ him fell out, an’ the boy licked him, an’ aman they sassed caught him an’ licked |him, an’ the driver of a sled they hung on to licked him also. Then his pa licked him, an’ I had to give him another one for sassing me for telling his pa; so you need not lick him till next time. I guess he thinks he better keep in school hereafter.”” - ES i Lr $2.25 ~tee-+ 2 2 - i | Cannon. } | The Republican and Independent peanngagats of the Middle West are} overwhelmingly opposed to the selec- | Ition of Joseph G.

St. Louis, Feb.—Train robbery” is one of the poorest paying professions, according to the announcement of officials of the Missouri Pacific, two of whose trains have been held up recently. The four men who robbed one of the company’s trains in a spectacular fashion, near Eureka, Mo., January 21 netted $155 in fifling the mail sacks, according to the announce- ment, instead of $10,000, the original estimate of the railroad and postal of- ficials. The three or four men who robbed the passengers on a Missouri Pacific train near Pittsburg, Kas., February 5, got away $133 richer, the officials say. . A reward of $500 each for the men who participated in the robbery near Pittsburg, was announced by the railway \\company.
