Fancy clothes, drinks, cigars! Sure, it’s human nature to size up a fellow by what tickles him. Now, what would predominate should the kind hearted ublic hang up prizes for Big Bill Taft?

The Modern Piracy One of the things that’s “the matter with America” just mow is watered stock. Consider, for a moment, just what it is: Watered stock represents the demand of the capitalist for Interest on nothing—on purely fictitious capital. Almost every body thinks it is right that the investor should get a fair return on his actualand honest investment. But a great many peo- ple believe that the country cannot permanently stand the abuse of labor,.the deterioration in quality of product, and the tre- mendously high cost of living involved in the effort to pay divi- dends on capital that exists only in the minds of organizing financiers of the J. P. Morgan type. To illustrate: Value of tobacco trust plant, $500,000; stock and bonds is- sued against it, $25,000,000; recently raised to $52,000,000. Ship trust properties, $5,000,000; stocks and $71,000,000. Steel trust stock and bonds, $1,436,722,133—at least fifths “water.” And so it goes through a long list of monopolistic corpor- ations. The game is to make these false values real by carn- jing dividends on oceans of watered stock. If you don’t let ‘em }do it, you “disturb business”; but if you do let ‘em do it, you ‘ernsh the laborer, the producer of raw material and the con- sumer. Suppose we tried “watered” labor for awhile—that is, sup-| pose labor demanded four days’ pay for every one day it tworked—what would these “watered” promoters and organi wers say? Why, they would say it was an “outrage,” “robbery,” “rank Injustice,” ete., etc. And they would be quite right! bonds, AND now that the council refuses to stop a rooster from crowing, perhaps some kind judge will issue a restraining order on the lord and master of the barnyard Observation: YUAN SHIH KAI does not seem to have made any promises regard-| Ing another term—Chicago Record-Herald. | ° ONE trembles to think what would happen should the wind»blow Col, Bryan's hat into the ring—Newark News. ar ar" LIKE Mary's little lamb, Schedule K follows Mr. Taft wherever he Gees, but not for the same reason—New York World. °o 0 oO A SCIENTIST declares that “eating is a dying art.” That's what Dr. Wiley has been trying to prove ali along —Cleveland Leader. 6c 8 THE Roosevelt people can’t get away from the Bryan policies.

She didn't have to run away from home to become an actress. And, wonder of wonders, her mother encouraged her to dream of histrionic heights from childhood days. Naomi was the child wonder of St. Louis from a dramatic art standpoint for many years, Never a church fair or ben- efit performance where she didn’t, get an inning.
