I believe that the public is entitled to know that it gets a fair standard of service, and at a fair price, and that the corporation makes a fair business profit. I feel that the PUBLIC IS ALSO ENTITLED TO ASSURANCE THAT ITS LIFE, HEALTH AND PROP ERTY ARE SAFEGUARDED IN THE UTMOST DEGREE. I believe that the public and employees of the company are entited to know that ev­ ery possible safeguard is thrown about the life and health of the employees. I believe in a fair working out of Employer's Liability. I believe in putting the burden of TAXATION ON THE SHOULDERS OF THE PEOPLE WHO CAN BEST AFFORD TO BEAR IT, and who get the most benefit from the stability which this government offers to income and capital. I believe in an Income Tax exempting moderate incomes, and one in which the ratio of taxation--when the income is enjoyed by a private indi­ vidual--increases as the income itself increases in size. I believe in an Inherit­ ance Tax exempting moderate inheritances, but one in which the ratio of tax­ ation increases as the size of the inheritance itself increases. I believe in the conservation of all the national and state resources for the benefit of all the people. I BELIEVE IN PROTECTION, BUT I BELIEVE IN PROTECTION THAT REDUCES, AS FAR AS POSSIBLE, THE COST OF THE CHEAPER ARTICLES that are necessarily consumed by the poorer people and, if addi­ tional revenue must be raised from this source, that the tax on the LUXUR­ IES THAT ARE ENJOYED BY THE RICHER PEOPLE BE MADE TO STAND SUCH INCREASES, as far as possible. I believe in the principle advocated by President Taft when he caused the present Tariff Commission to be established. After this body has had an opportunity to gather its facts, this country, for the first time, will be able to approach tariff legislation from a fair and scientific standpoint and, for the first time, the schedules will be framed in the interest of the ultimate consumer, as well as in the interest of the producers. Heretofore no one has ever been heard on a tariff schedule excepting the producer. < I believe in the integrity and ability of President Taft. I am NOT for Joseph G. Cannon for Speaker. To sum up my platform in one sentence, I AM A 1' PROGRESSIVE" REPUBLICAN AND BELIEVE IN THE POLICIES OF THEODORE ROOSEVELT, NAMEtY, "A SQUARE DEAL FOR EVERYBODY." IRA C.

I am op­ posed to any deep waterway legislation by this state until such time as the Fed­ eral Government assures its finaucial support ot the project. I am for the rigid enforcement of laws governing the practice of medicine and surgery, and the enactment of such laws as will protect the people against nnscrnpnlons practitioners I believe there should be just and equitable measures of protec­ tion to employer and employee, the con­ servation of all our natural resources, the encouragement, support e.nd ad­ vancement of all our public, educatioual and charitable institutions, in order that they may be placed on the highest plane of efficiency " l'iiiv«*rHHli»t S«trvic«*ft|»l 10:45.

"'Id one of the worst London fogs," said an Englishman, "an old friend of mine tried to find his way from Tra falgar square to the Savoy, where he had an engagement to dine. "The sulphurous air made the eyes smart and the head ache, and it brought on terrific fits of coughing. You could not literally see your hand before your face. There was a con­ tinual crashing in of windows, bells Jangled, velii Irs and foot passengers collided, and shrieks and oaths arose. "Threading his way In the midst of this pandemonium through the Strand, as he supposed, from Landscer's lions to the vailing dinner at the Savu.v, my old friend, to his groat bewilderment soon found himself descending a broad stairway. lie put his hand to the balustrade. Y^s a broad and stately stairway with a rail of caned stone. Amazing! "Suddenly in his descent my friend collided with some one ascending the stairway. " 'llello!' he said. " 'Hello!' a gruff male voice replied. " 'Can you tell me," s«1d my friend, 'where I am going?' " 'Certainly, ' said the other 'If you keep straight on you will walk Into the Thames, for I 've just come out of It '" Effect of Colors on Animals. The effect of color upon mind is most easily noticeable In dumb animals, be­ cause they make no effort to curb or control their emotions. Wave a red flag at a bull and he becomes violently angry. Shake a red shawl in front of a turkey gobbler and he will storm around fearfully. I made an experl ment In the country one summer to see If this same fact held true of other animals. On my farm I had an enor mously fat, lazy pig that disliked noth­ ing so much as to move. All day long It used to lie asleep In the sunshine, and sometimes even the attraction of food could not budge it. I took a nuui ber of pieces of silk of the same quali­ ty, but of different shades, and, after jyaking the pig, waved each strip of silk In front of It. For the blue and green It never moved, but when I waved the red and orange strips It Jumped to its feet, stamped about and appeared to be thoroughly angry. Time and again I repeated this experiment and always with the same result- Frank Alvah Parsons In Good House­ keeping. Recognized Their Old Friend. The late Sir John Steell, who was sculptor to Queen Victoria, was model­ ing a bust of Miss Nightingale when an officer of one of the highland regi­ ments which had suffered so cruelly In the Crimea heard that the bust had just been completed and was In Sir John's studio. Many of the men In his company had passed through the hos­ pital at Scutari, and he obtained per mission from the sculptor to bring some of them to see It. Accordingly a squad of men one day marched Into the studio and stood In line. They had no Idea why they had been mustered in so strange a place. Without a word of warning the bust was uncovered, and then, as by one Impulse, the men broke rank and with cries of "Miss Nightingale.
