The opening sentences of the repub lican platform give deserved credit for the present prosperous condition of the country to President Roosevelt and his fearless and progressive poli cies. Next to a nomination this public acknowledgement of his services, is the greatest honor that could have been conferred on the president by his party. The platform says of the president: In this, the grentest era of Ameri can advancement, the republican party has reached its highest service under the leadership of President Roosevelt. In no other period since national sovereignty was won under Washing ton or preserved under Lincoln, has such mighty progress been made by the American nation. The highest aspirations of the people have found voice In the repub lican party. Conscience and courage, in public action have reached higher standards and the right and wrong of private life have become the cardinal principles of Its political faith. Capital and labor have been brought into closer relations; the abuse of wealth and all the evils of privilege arid favoritism have been put to scorn by virtue f Justice and fair. play. The great accomplishments of Pres ident Itoiiseveit have been, first auj foremost, his brave And Impartial en forcement of the laws; his prosecution of illegal trusts and monopolies; the exposure and punishment of evildoers if public service; more effective regu lation of the rates and service of the great transportation lines; the com plete overthrow of preferences; the arbitration ,of labor disputes; the amelioration of the condition of the workers of the country; conservation of our national resources and a for ward step In the improvement of our Inland waterways. We declare our unfaltering adher ence to the policies thus Inaugurated and pledge our party to their continu ance under a republican administra tion of the government. appalling c ost of crime. It Is quite easy for liberty to run into license and for crime to grow bold and Increase in a free country. Unless the law Is rigidly enforced In a free country, the result U sure to be disorder and anarchy, because there i." no master no power to preserve peace and order save the law. It Is not like It Is In countries where the army Is depended upon to enforce the orders of an autocrat. The law is all-Important In a free country. Of course, without peace and order, human government is a. costly failure. The cost of it Is found not only In the great opportunities for the advance ment of the race, which are lost, but In the' actual penalties and expendi tures In cash which are always incur red. Crime is the most costly thing In the world. " Police and Fire Dispatch of Chica go wiys that there "are at the preaent time about 100,000 criminals confined In the state prisons of the country, and it la eatlmated that from five to 10 time as many more are successful In eiudlng- the law." Of courae this refers to the cost of keeping the criminals only, not to the coat of machinery for trying them or the value of the Jives and property they have destroyed. If o consider the county workhouses and their In mates, as well as the state prisons, the same authority tells us that 250,000 is .ibout the correct number of men who are suffering criminal punishment throughout the country. Multiply this by five or six, and you will have the number of people whose pockets are directly affected by the crimes of those who are guilty, not to speak of the Indirect or general losses to all the people, above referred to. As the contemporary points out, the most accurate statistics obtainable show that crime and the results of crime entail upon the city of New Tork an annual expenditure sufficient to build a new subway every year. Last year, for example, the Items of expenditure fairly chargeable to this cause alone reached a total of $35, 562.133.21. an amount sufficient to defray the cost of the Fourth avenue subway, for which some Brooklynltes are clamoring so Insistently, and leave something like 10,000,000 or $12. 000,000 over to be applied to other needed Improvements. State, county and city authorities In the state, outside of Greater New York, spent $42,605,473 for the pre vention, detection and punishment of crime. Taking New Tork as a basis, the Memphis Commercial Appeal consid ers It "probably well within the lim its of safety to say that the total di rect cost of crime to the country at large Is about $600,000,000, or $700, 000,000 annually. Add to this the loss in wages of the 250,000 malefac tors and something like the cost of crime to the country may be obtained." A TEST FOK IHIY FARMING. The past month of dry, windy weather In the Inland empire has been a severe test for the "staying quali ties' 'of the soil In different parts of the wheat belt. This year will test. the virtues of dry farming principles advocated by many progressive farmers, to the full est extent. There has been but little rain In any part of the Inland empire section and the soil has been forced to rely on the moisture It stored and held over from winter. Where the soil was cultivated well and packed on the surface, according to the dry farming methods, the soil forces retained their strength and held the moisture much,better than where but little packing or cultivation had teen done. Farmers declare that the appear ance Of the wheat on . the different soils, that which has been treated oc cording to the dry farming or dust blanketing process and that which has not. tells the tale. An experienced f.rmer can look across a field and tell wnere the cultivation ended. A few itry years will bring more cultivation, more dry farming meth ods. Cultivation and packing of the soil surface pays well In Increased yields. Jiy weather tells the tale. Portland is going to grow roses for the Alaskan fair at Seattle next year. That will be revenge for all that Se attle papers have said about Port land's population and shipping .facili ties. As the outside counties are heard from officially, the plurality of Gov ernor Chamberlain Increases. Will the returns never quit coming in? COALS TO NEWCASTLE. A benevolertt Englishman one day saw a rural looking man sitting on a stone wall swinging his legs and gaz ing earnestly at the telegraph wires. Going over to the yokel he said: "Waiting to see a message fa long, eh?" The man grinned and said "Aye. The benevolent old gentleman got on the wall and for the next quarter of an hour tried hard to dispel his ignorance. "Now," he said at last, "as you know something about the matter, I hope you will spread your knowledge among your mates on the farm." "But I don't work on a farm," re plied the rural citizen. "Where, then, may I ask?" "Me and my mates are telegrapn linemen and we are Vstlng a new wire." Philadelphia Public Ledger.

From a blonde came this remark; We were married on a lark. There was laughter; there was fun, All had spoken except one. Said this queer, old-fashioned dove: We were married Just for love."

Private advices from New Orleans are to the effect that the Morning World of that city, which recently went Into the. hands of a receiver, had suspended publication and that Its subscription list and good will have been taken over by the Item. The paper was started In Decem ber, 1907. with J. M; Leverque as president and geiielul manager. At a meeting of the stockholder;-, held on May 21, S. F. Heasllp, the re ceiver, stated that on February 18, when the board of directors held Its first 'meeting, It was discovered that the paper's affairs were in bad shape. A large proportion . of the stock had not been paid for and hills for adver tising and subscriptions had not been collected. On the face of the books and papers it appeared that the Indebtedness of the company was only y"00 and such an amount for a company capitalized at over $250,000 was a mere bagatelle. He engaged the services of Mr. Stall ings. an expert accountant, ' and to fether they went over the books and found that Instead of owing a mere $1700 the company owed $43,000. The total indebtedness at present Is about $75,000. The dally cost of run ning th,e paper, Mr. Hasllp said, wus $911, and the Income $500, leaving a deficit of $400. The circulation of the World was 23,000 copies. Unless $10 000 could be raised at once tjie paper would have to suspend. Evidently efforts to raise the amount have been successful. WHY THE POOR MAN WORKS. One hears It said that the rich com pel the poor to work. To this'Cle menceau has most wisely replied: The rich do not compel the poor to work. Work, the search for food, is the universal law of nature. Imperative ly laid on all. young and old. male and' female alike; and lasting the whole life time. All that the rich do is to show the poor what to work at; and this they do, not because they are rich, for a rich fool cannot do it, but because they have the two-fold power of see ing what Is needed to be done, and" co ordinating the powers of others to get It done. The poorest man in the country, If he have these two powers, will soon become rich. It Is not capital that makes pow er effective; it is inherent power; and what we call capital Is merely the register of that power, the evidence that the power has been exerted; but the inherent power is the real thing. Whatever form the state may have, we are and always shall be depen dent on those o have the two-fold power of seeing what Is to be done, and of co-ordinating workers to do It. Harper's Weekly. CARLSHAD'S NEW SPUING. Another hot spring was recently added to the 19 which Carlsbad had for years enjoyed. Workmen wha were engaged In clearing out the channels of the Muhlbrunn suddenly broke Into a new spring of hot min eral water 22 feet below the surface of the ground. The water gushed up and, overflowing the promenade, ran Into the Itiver Tepl. The appearance of the new spring was not altogether welcome to the citizens, because they fear that Its flow may diminish that of the Sprudel fountain, which Is Carlsbad's most valuable asset as a health resort. Every year the increasing number of visitors makes correspondingly larg er demands on the capacity of tho springs, while the flow of the latter seems to be decreasing, nlthnugh slightly. On account of these conditions, the municipality engaged an expert to overhaul the channels nnit sources of springs, and It was during the prog ress of this work tbat the new spring was discovered. The whole country around Carlsbad is honeycombed with springs and chanels of water, all of which nre more or less closely con nected. Hence the fear lest the new spring may injure a larger and more valuable one. AMONG NEW YORK'S IIUNGHY. The first of the relief kitchens being established In New Tork by, the chil dren's relief society was opened June 9, and fed 400 hungry youngsters, who acted as If they hadn't had enough to eat In weeks. There were many pa thetic Incidents, one little girl started to go away crying after an egg had been broken for her to eat, saying she. wanted to take It home, as her mother was sick, her father hadn't had any work and six brothers and sisters "what hadn't had anything ro eat." Exchange. Worth a Trial. Cyrus Townsend Brady, the author and clergyman, told 'at a dinner In Toledo a story about charity. "A millionaire,' said Dr. Brady, 'lay dying. He had lived. 4 life, of which, as,he now looked back on it, he felt none too proud. To the hilnlster at his bedside he muttered feebly: "If I leave a hundred thousand dol lars or 8d to the church, will my sal vation be assured?" " 'The' minister was answering cau tiously: 'I wouldn't like to be positive; but, it's well worth trying." Lamennals Is being claimed as a forerunner of 'Modernism" on the strength of some recently published letters of his: "Catholicism has grown to be a vast Protestantism. I haven't met two Catholics who be lieve the same thing. This seems to me a striking symptom of what may be expected In the future." , - The Jury In the superior cotfrt at Pasco has acquitted Macey Smith or the fnurder of 8am Price, the brake man, who was shoved or fell off a freight train near Ellensburg a few weeks ago, resulting In his death. It was claimed Price was pushed off the train by Smith, who, with other ho boes, was stealing a ride. CATAHMH FAP.-REACHIHG BLOOD DISORDER Even in its early stages Catarrh is almost intolerable, caused by the stuffy feeling in the nose, the buzzing noises in the aara, the continual "hawking and spitting" difficult breathing, etc.. But whenhe blood becomes thoroughly polluted from the catarrhal matter, thelnflammation extends to the bronchial tubes, causing hoarseness, and oteag(fravatirJjr eolith ; the stomach is affected, resulting in dyspepsia, Kjs lppetite and strength, and gradually all the mucous membranes of tlbMfibecome dis eased and the system upset and deranged.

Clarence Urmy. THE 'I"OOR Hl'SBAND." A woman, discussing how to feed a husband, said she soon cured her husband of fuslness and faddiness about his food. She said that he had to take what he could get. Now, why should he? His work and money buy every scrap of food which enters the home. It Is the hus band's right that he should have the food he likes best, properly cooked and served on the table he bought, In the house whose rent he pays, by 1 HmAMMgJ m ilS& approach with dread, for noth Kj KTM MM Mil t&ff jng compares to the pain of JA MOTHER pleasant anticipations, and casts over her a shadow of gloom.
