RESIDENT TAIT feels that times are ripe for the present administration to publish abroad the very best news it can lay ite hand on. With the help of the Department of Agri- culture he takes pleasure in announcing to the country that The wave of extremely high prices for food throughout the otwiteed world has reached its height in the United States and 40 eudsiding. The American people have cause to be thankful that decouse of our industria! prosperity i has not been at tended here with the great hardship which has prevailed in bome foreign countries where Moh prices have combined with low wages to reduce the working people to @ point bordering en starvetion. . Then Secretary Wilson turns in some eolM, shining facts. For instance: The wheat crop is 100,000,000 bushels lerger than that of | lest year. High grade flonr is already costing eighty cents lees per | barrel than a year ago. The saving in flour consumption should bo $108,000,000. The corn crop breaks all records, exceeding 3,000,- 000,000 bushels. The hay crop is similarly large and prices are fall- ing. The total saving to consumers of potatoes will be some $04,000,000. The Secretary of Agriculture advises the President that on the nine great crops of the country—corn, wheat, oats, barley, \ tye, buckwheat, potatoes, flaxseed and hay—prices Oct. 1 indicated | 8 caving to coneumers of 9 per cent., or nearly $500,000,000. | es The country is to be congratulated upon this great good news. | President Taft is to be congratulated upon makjng no attempt to % plece credit save whore credit is due. Not to presidents nor to not to tariffs nor to trusts, but to the blessed, inexhaustible eficence of our soil and to the faithful toil of ten million workers ‘4 thereon do we give thanks for these tidings of prosperity and plenty. <p Czar, according to a Tribune despatch, is in a rage because his man of affaires has eaid that the Ruler of all the Russias is tich enough to buy up Rockefeller and Morgan offhand.

WHY NOT PLAY THE GAME? | GCF T seems queer that « man with » bullet in his throat should | take such a stand against a man with a bullet in his rib!” } We hope this withering thrust of feminine logic from | the women of the local Bull Moose movement has duly scored on tthe hard heart of Mayor Gaynor, who refuses to let them “tag” citizens for Bull Moose funds on “Founder's Day” next Saturday. Just why “one touch of bullet” should “make the whole world kin” to the extent of a general and cordial upsetting of law and order it is difficult to see. But it is not surprising that many things seem eer” to these feminine Progressives. It comes from living so far ad.
