TWENTY-SEVEN YEARS With this issue The Independence Enterpr se begins another page in its bistory. That it has been an import ant factor in the development of lo cal resources, and a mou:der of public opinion during the past twenty-seven years is not to be disputed. Notwith- ..fnHino' tho manv adversities. at times attended with strong competiti on. The Enterrrise has kept pace wit the lne of progress in the state, and w'rhout eKOt'stical expression we can truly say that it is in many respects ahead of some papers in the state to-d-y, and to the people of Independ ence belongs the cred't for much of Its success. For more than a quar ter of a century they have been i loyal to the home paper, and this physical power-her enormous re sources, her enormous weultn, ner pow er to levy Innumerable armies aud build up armaments wmcn ww quer the world. "But what has made us strong? The toil of millions of men. the toll of men who do not boast, who are inconspic uous, but who live their Uvea humbly from day to day, ana tnts greut .r.rtm this creat body of tollers, constitutes the might of America "What is the manuesi umj statesmanship, therefore? It is to se that this great body or men wu. in stitute the strength of America are properly dealt with by the laws anl properly nurtured and taken care of by the policy of the country. "Well, what hinders, what stands in the way? Why. you know that ev erything really worth discussing comes to the question of the corporations. Now, I do not want you to expect from me any invective against the corpora tions. I was bred a lawyer, but I do not know how to draw up an Indict ment against a whole nation. If you will give me the facts I can indict one man at a time. DON'T BE BALD. Nearly Anyone May Secure a 8plendid Growth of Hair. T'-. Lh-a a warn ir that haa a record lOyai lO Lilt? l'ut' .
