What’s llie matter with Will
iam K. llearst fur President in
1904 ?
Why not abolish the railroad
commission and buy a few gold
bricks with the money it costs
the state to maintain the railroad
commission ?
It is said that President Roose
velt “administered a hard blow to
trusts.” But even a hard blow of
hot air was never known to do
any material damage.
Speaker Henderson’s district
in Iowa, which attracted national
attention because of his with
drawal from the congressional
race, went republican by a decid
ed majority.
It almost causes our editorial
think tank to topple over when
we think of what widely different
opinions the two Sharp county
paper—the Ilardy Herald and the
Sharp Coun*y Record—entertain
of Uncle Grover Cleveland. But,
smart men will differ.
Complications have developed
which will probably delay work
on the Panama canal for a num
ber of years. There was <juite a
wrangle over the question of
routes when tha canal bill was be
fore tbo senate and il is a well
known fact that those who op
posed a canal by any route did
not hesitate to work tor the Pan
ama route when in became evi
dent that a canal bill would be
passed. ’It will also be remem
Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con
sumption. “ Eat plenty of
pork,” was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stp'cach it. The idea
behind it is that iat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott’sEmulsion is the mod
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs,
Scott’s Emulsion is the most
refined of tats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
wray, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, hut
Scott’s Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos- l
phites in Scott’s Emulsion !
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

A forecast of President Rouse

says ho will deal largely with rec

attention by eongiess.
The Cubans became indignant
at the action of the military au
thorities in suppressing cook
fighting, organized a big proces
sion, inarched through the streets
of Havana and proclaimed it the
national sport. There doesn't
seem to lie half as much harm in
ettek lighting as in certain sports
which some Americans indulge in.
The Hardy Herald says that
“Jeff Davis did not make enough
speeches in Missouri to reduce
the democratic majority much.”
Hasn't the ’steemed Herald got
the wrong bear by the tail? Me
have always been under the im
pression that it was Jeff's inimit
able speeches and handshakes
that cairied the tide his way.
The Cabot Guard intimates that
our recent criticisms of Governor
Davis were unjust and assures
The Journal that the poeplo will
see that some one well qualified
to succeed “the present able and
loyal incumbent" will be placed
in the executive chair at the ex
piration of Davis’ present term.
iVeil, wo hope so. hut we are op
joset! to Governor Davis dictal
ng who his successor should be.
Frank James, the once notori
ous outlaw, has returned to the
i old farm in (.'lav county, Mis
souri, to spend his remaining days

over the scenes of childhood on
! t lie old homestead.
Those republican papers that
| have delighted in taunting demo
crats with the tact the Bryan's
home town has several times gone
republican will now have to laugh
out of the other side of their
mouth. Oyster Bay. the home of
; President Roosevelt, was carried
i by the democrats in the recent
election. _
We have always given Hodges,
of the Pocahontas News, credit
for his or gimility, but we must
confess that we are suipiisedat
i his excuse for the supposed tardi
ness in the appearance of his pa
per last week, and more surprised
at the ignorance displayed by the
editor of the Arkansas Gazette in
reproducing the excuse and giv
ing credit to the News for its orig
inality. That old excuse, as
might have been expected, is a
Kansas product.
We are afraid our friend Coger,
of the Sharp County Record, will
overtax his fertile brain in bis en- '
deavor to assist the benighted
editor of The Journal to climb
from our obscure position at the

makes us feel dizzy to stand away j

Coger, as, perched on the top

THE UNEQUAL DISTRIBU
TION OF WEALTH.
In the United States today about
40.000 men own one-half of the
nation’s wealth, while about 40,
000,000 own practically nothing
and it is an acknowledged fact
that only the man with ample
capital has any chance to succeed
in the business world today.
Thoughts along this line bring to
mind the fact that in the past
there has been some public men
who ,believed in restricting the
accumulation of wealth. If this
could be done the millionaire
class, who represent only the few,
could not, as now, own and con
trol tiie greater part of the wealth
of the nation- Some think this
could be done by a sliding scale
m' taxation beginning with the
owner of, say $5,COO, who will bo
required to pay a nominal tax.
The wealthy man will he requir
ed to pay i nominal tax on the
(irst $5,000, also, and an increased
tax on every additional $5,000 in
property or income.
By this-method what a man
owned in excess of a detennina'e
sum would lie taxed to confisca
tion, thus preventing accumula
tions greater than the people,
through their law-making power,
might agree upon. This plan has
many enthusiastic advocates and
it must be admitted that it pre
sents an aspect of poetic justice
that is attractive,
No man ever earned a million
dollars, it is said, and the logical
sequence is that no man should
be permitted to enjoy the him tils
and luxuries of money that he
lias not earned.
In the event that one million
dollars should he fixed upon as
llie permitted limit of accumula
tion, .John D. Rockefeller would
he compelled to turn into the
public treasury the other $11)9,
:>00,000 he is said to poscss,
The accumulation of too much
wealth m the hands of a few indi
viduals might, >\ith benefit, he
prevented or abated, hut the ob
jections to my plan yet suggested
ire numerous. However, specu
lations on these plans for a more
.■quitable distribution of wealth
ire pleasing to those who enjoy
ntelleetual diversion.

The Triumph of Economy as Well
as of Art.
This combination is the cause, and the important cause, of
the wonderful popularity of the Kimball Ida nos and Organs.
35 000 per year arc not sufficient to supply the demand, as
the Kimball Company is several thousand orders behind in
shipments and is planning fuilhcr large additions to “The
Greatest Factory in existence."
What else could create flic prodigious growth which “The
Kimball” has attained, than that the instruments are the acme
of perfection and in the cost to manufacture and to sell are a
triumph of economy uot possible to competition, lhe incon
sistency of prejudice and carping criticism must make way for
well-earned repiUatiod and such advancing progiess.
We solicit inquries of all kinds concerning Pianos and Organs
tlu ir prices, terms of payment or otherwise. We will promptly
and satisfactorily serve every requirement.

Peculiar Accident.
Squire 11. J. Drennen, of Mag
ness, was in town yesterday and
reports that a rather queer acci
dent happened at his place a few
days ago. lie was having a Hue
built and had some lime in a keg
setting nearby over which he had
poured some water to slake. The
lime exploded with a report like a
gun. throwing the keg high into
the air. Fortunately no one was
near the keg at the time and no
damage resulted save the loss of
the lime and the keg which was
blown to pieces by the explosion.
