McPherren ‘ht the Wyoming.” r refineries are located in northern hands of bootleggers at Sheridan, takes from active, useful life one of the bravest and cleanest peace of- ficers in Wyoming. His death was a sacrifice to law enforcement. “In all the years he served the city of Sheridan as a member of the police force and as the chief and la- ter as the undersheriff there never was a question of courage to perform a duty. In the years of his pub- lic service he faced many doubtful situations and it is not recalled that he was ever called upon to man to get him. McPherren enjoyed the highest respect, always, from his associates and the public and his loss to the community of Sheridan will be felt by everyone. It is a downright shame that he should be down by a bootlegger. 4 a ps THE WORLD'S EFFICIENT SERVANT. “A woman can now attend to all of her household duties in a reception gown,” is the way Arthur Wil- Hams of the Edison ‘company puts it. ; The great slave of the world—electricity—has re- leased womankind from the drudgeries of life. Wom- en are domestic engineers, agd their part in the scheme of things is just as important as the part played by men. The partnership of life is a most se- rious matter, and each must do his or her part, but there are means to do it without slavery or drudgery, and these should be adopted. There is scarcely & household duty now that cannot be attended to with ay. electrically driven apparatus of somée*kind. You can sweep the floor with a, vacuum cleaner, cook break- fast with the electric stove and do a day’s washing in an electric washer without any inconvenience. You can peel potatoes with an electric peeler, which saves the hands. The elimination of the common washtub will have more to do with elevating the domestic du- ties of womankind than anything else. There need be no servants any more. Make electricity the great] buck to.

Business was speeded up. Informed of the change at a watering place near by, the president began to improve in health. Reluctant- ly, his physician permitted him to return to Louisville.

When she can do a thing better than we can, we do not hesitate to hand the crown and scepter over to her and give her three rousing cheers when thing has been accomplished. There is no backbiting when woman is concerned. We like her. She has been a silent partner for a long period of years and since she has been made a full partner with an active interest in the business heretofore con- ducted by man we are treating her with equal respect and courtesy and according her the eame credit we have given man in the past. The Louisville Courier- Journal tells of a case in which a red-headed girl saved the day when the men concerned were discouraged and ready to quit: “In’ these days when ‘men with hard faces and soft bodies’ are reminding women of the limitations of ‘the female of the species,’ it may be interesting to note the ease of a certain Louisville woman, to whom it has-been given in four months time to wipe out a $40,000 deficit on the books of a well known corpora- tion after its president and directors had practically ‘thrown up the sponge’ and were on the point of adopting a policy of liquidation. “The case is not a little illuminating respecting the adaptability and the capability of women in various fields of activit: j “Successful at the outset of its career, the business of this corporation began to slump early last fall, By March a steadily increasing deficit had set in. Anx- ious bill collectors began to crowd the president’s anteroom. The president got up in the morning with @ grouch and went to bed at night with a corrugated brow. Directors were glum. Everyone, excepting a mere woman, was’ looking-for someone to pass the shot ee A NEW TRADE THEORY. A new and altogether fresh theory in economics has been born. It’s author is F, Edmonds Tyng, Jr. The Annalist is the medium through which his brain spasm is given to the world. The essence of his idea is con- tained in this paragraph: “There is a sound basis to the assumption that if ‘we pay more attention to our import trade our ex- port trade will not only take care of itself, but will not néed nursing and cuddling to enable it to do so.” Imports are what a nation buys from others; ex- ports, what a nation sells. Applying Mr. Tyng’s theory to a man’s private affairs, the rule would be, “buy more, and your selling will take care of itself.” It is_an entirely new philosophy of trade, and we can well commend it to our neighbors, postponing for the present our own adoption of such an innovation. Mr. Tyng deprecates the popular idea that a favor- able balance of trade is something greatly to be de- sired. We naturally wonder whether that the theory on which he runs his own private business— whether he likes to have a red ink balance instead of a credit balance on his own books and at his bank. We have seen some people who conducted their business that way, but they usually wound wp in bankruptcy courts and left their widows and children with noth- ing but unpleasant reflections when they passed to the gréat beyond. This founder of a new school of national econom- ics asserts that “the so-called favorable balance of trade is a popular delusion.” But, if a nation’s busi- ness is’ governed by the same principles which govern private business and we believe it is, then there is something more than a delusion to a fa- vorable balance. We do not know a farmer who thinks it is a delusion to sell more than he buys; we do not know a manufacturer who thinks it a delusion to find his sales greater than his purchases; we do not know a laboring man who deems it a delusion to have his earnings greater than his expenditpres... More- over, we do not know a banker who looks with dis- favor upon applicants for loans if their business is conducted upon plans which result in favorable bal- ances. One more new idea in national economics fs set forth in Mr. Tyng’s assertion that “goods sold abroad by a nation may be paid for only by goods bought in return.” We had always thought, and the records to town to take a look at the books. The company was no longer ‘in the red.’ Everything was all right, as the woman had said it would be. “Now the corporation that owed $40,000 four months ago is ‘in the clear’ with a comfortable and steadily increasing surplus. “This cashier saved the day after the men had lost it,’ generously admits the corporation’s president. “Behind this admission of this hard-headed busi- ness man may be discerned a factor in modern Amer- ican life that deserves no little consideration in these days when faith and hope and courage and henesty and optimism are needed as seldom before in the na- tion’s life.” pe SR ano Cen ae WES CSI BEAUTY BY TAXATION. “The republic in Germany has not been in vain,” asserts the New York Tribune. “A project has been submitted to the finance minister to tax waist lines in excess of normal at the rate of 500 marks for the first inch, 1,000 marks for the second, and so,on. The meas- ure is urged not only for economic but for aesthetic reasons, It is hoped thereby to beautify the German race. “On these grounds it is highly desirable. practical? It will be necessary to define the mathe- matical normalcy of waist lines. If the committee to do so (which, it is presumed, will be composed of com- fortably covered burgers) decides on un ample meas- ure, it is possible that a new revenue act may be in- troduced taxing all waists below the generous stand- ard. This would naturally simulate the sausage and beer business, but it would not improve the racial beauty. “In determining the standard, are measures to be made before or after supper, and can they be revised? Imagine a man who on tax day had a waist line of 85 and two months later had shrank to 832 Would he receive a rebate? “The intent is good, but the execution would be complicated. Why not follow the simpler method and tax the wrinkles in the back-of the neck?” But is it|= Chde Casper Dailp Cridune iding A Public Utility _ By AMERICAN AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION. “Expenditures for publie Problem and thus help to restore the bridges outside of tncorpora: national prosperity.
