It should not be hard in this day and generation to awaken
plause and kindly feeling for anyone or anything on the side of machination of
powers of greed and graft It is only fair that the people should know
those who are their friends. And we take this opportunity to point out the very great debt which the people owe to Collier's and to Mark Sul
livan. What the Kansas City "Star" and the Philadelphia 'North American" are to the newspaper world that Collier's is to the national field. To tell the truth, to uphold the right, to fight the battles of the op- . pressed, to disregard financial influences, to separate the shady borderline of twilight between the right and wrong into the honest and the dishonest and to make these stand out in no uncertain terms that as far as human Judgment and Intelligence permit, is the task which Collier's has undertaken. The cause matters little. The patent medicine shark or the common grafter the investment parasite all these. And now we come to Mark Sullivan.

Kerns Gathered in
From Far and Near
Half a Century of Oil.
Prom the Philadelphia Press. Fifty years ago toward the end of August,
1859. Edwin L. Drake sank the first
petroleum well at a point on Oil creek
near where Titusville now flourishes.
This was the beginning of the indus
try which has reached such stupendous proportions. Steps have just
been taken by the citizens of Titus
ville to celebrate the semi-centennial
' of an event the importancee of which
Is not second to any in the economic history of the United States. Fifty years of petroleum have wrought revolution, first In artificial Illumination
, throughout a large part of the civiliz
ed world, while in the enormous
growth of the automobile industry another direct result of Drake's drilling Is observable. Oil fuel for ships, lo
comotives and stationary engines is
still In its infancy. So far as by-products of petroleum are concerned, they are as varied and as valuable as the
by-products of coal tar.
"The shots that hit are the shots that count." So said Theodore Roosevelt. That Mark Sullivan writer in extraordinary to
idea is certain at any rate he has a perfect score. To the man in congress who has violated his promises we can easily imagine that Mark Sullivan seems an angel with a fiery sword by whose light all the excrescences of his twisted soul are exposed. Not all the balm flowing from 26 Broadway can cover the lupus growths and heal their smart. To the man in congress who has pledged himself to avoid the entangling alliances of Aldrich and Cannon and would pose as a reformer at home and a friend of the interests in Washington Mark Sullivan is a creature of horns and devil-worship a man who takes delight in defamation of character; a man who does not understand that it is impossible to obey what the people want a man who does not understand that promises are a legitimate part of a politician's makeup so much paint, powder and pretense. These are truly things that he does not understand. For Sullivan is a dealer in Jekyll and Hydes fair by day "back home," and crooked by night in a mahogany fitted place where no one knows. Where no one knows? Sullivan knows.

STATE FOOD AND DRUG COMMISSIONER DOES NOT ADVOCATE DRINKING BEER, BUT HE PAYS IT COMPLIMENT.
We do not know Mark Sullivan save through the medium of what he does. Yet that is sufficient. We do not imagine that he works for the money that Collier's pays him. We do not think it unlikely that he has been "approached." But on the face and beneath the surface, his work bears the mark of a man who cannot be "seen."
Under the directorship of Sullivan, Collier's has opened a publicity department in Washington, which will give out on request, how the members of congress voted, on any measure. We need not point out the obvious result. The deeds that are done in the dark can have the light o' day. No representative or senator can go back to his constituency and evade the issue if there is one newspaper in the community which will take the trouble to find out and has the backbone to use the information.
Collier's and Mark Sullivan are desirable citizens.
i Irrigation.
From the Chicagb Tribune. The
main idea of irrigation is to make arid lands fertile. The attendant result has far greater interest to the United StateB. For the cherished thought of
a nation of home owners is getting
steady encouragement wherever this
work Is being pushed. The word irrigation is full of meaning to the people of certain of the western states. Its
story is told in stages. There Is hope
fulness as the project is presented.
There is development as its effects be
gin to appear. There is assured pros
perity as the desert blossoms as the
rose. And the desert is blossoming, not for owners of vast areas but for hundreds and thousands of individuals who are carefully cultivating comparatively small farms with most satisfactory results. ,

And sees day's earliest charm, Because there's work that must

" Wash Money. From the New York Tribune. Secretary MacVeagh's reported intention to have bank notes and other forms of paper currency washed frequently in a cleansing chemical solution will be generally applauded. Clean notes have been considered , a luxury not attainable by the great majority of
users, but in these new days of pro
gress and , antiseptic precaution they ought to become a thoroughly popular
ized convenience. The immunity bath experiment will be well worth trying.
" Horrors!
From the ' Boston . Transcript. New
Jersey inventors, abetted by local cap
Italists, have devised . a firecracker
made entirely by machinery at the rate of thirty-six a minute, at a cost
of production less than the Import duty on Chinese firecrackers. "No hu
man hand." we are told "touches the
cracker from the beginning of its man
ufacture to the end." It Is perhaps too much to, hope that no human hand shall touch it afterward. Doubtless
many will, and we shall begin to hear
the result on the day after July 4.

Norfolk, Va,, Aug. 14. Despite the fact that Uncle Sam considers the pres
ent maneuvers of the big Atlantic fleet the most important of any ever
attempted before by American war
ship, the battleship Virginia yesterday
made a record run to Hampton Roads with Pay Clerk Frederick Sherberger
who is suffering from appendicitis.
Sherberger's condition was such that he needed immediate attention that
could not be given on a warship. He was transferred to the tend
Yankton and brought to the naval hos
pital in this city for treatment. All during the day the battleship fleet. HO miles at sea, has been in constant communication with this station and Washington, advising the navy department of important achievements in accomplishing certain difll-
cult sea-tests in rough weather and the records made in the rough-water shooting. The real target tests, however, ars
to come next week- when the American gunners will be called on to hit a target supported between two tiny torpedo boats. The tests will occur under the roughest conditions possible, and should the gunners do even a third as well as they do under more favorable circumstances it will establish a new record
for the American navy and probably cause other nations to sit up and take notice. The two torpedo boats, the Nicholson
and Obrien, stripped of all machinery and filled with cork, will leave the navy yard tomorrow on the deck of the Yankton or a naval collier and will be carried to the drill grounds where they will be kept in motion during the target shoot by the naval tug Hercules.
Indianapolis. Aug. 14. H. E. Bar
nard, state food and drug commissioner, does not believe in beer drinking
not on your life. He does not ad
vocate It, nor does he advise people
to drink beer. But he does point to
the breweries as the most sanitary
and cleanly food producing place in the country. He says bottled beer is
the only real pure, sanitary food product that is on the market in any form.
This may seem strange, but Mr.
Barnard believes the food producers, especially milk and butter men of the state would do well to study the sanitary management of breweries. He
proposes to impress on the milk and butter men when they meet in this
city soon in their annual meeting, the
fact that dairies are too dirty, as they are operated now, and that the dairymen could learn much in cleanliness from the breweries.
He Gives Advice.
"The milk and butter men of Indi
ana ought to go in a body and visit the breweries of this or other states," said Mr. Barnard, "in order to see
how clean a food producing establishment may be made. The brewers, in order, to protect their trade have been compelled to resort to the cleanest and most sanitary methods of produc
tion, until it is a fact that the cleanest and most sanitary food on the mar
ket now is beer. The trade in this article has been fraught with so much opposition that the manufacturers have resorted to cleanliness as an advertising feature, and they have made
it pay. Then, too, the product of the brewery is a perishable article of ex
ceedingly short life unless it is pre
pared properly and cared for until It is consumed.
"It is in the breweries that the sani
tation has been brought to as near a
perfect condition as is possible in a
food producing establishment. The
water used in the material is all distilled, the hops and malt are abso
lutely clean before being allowed to
enter into the manufacturing process;
the vats, pipes, "etc., are not merely
washed, but are scalded and thoroughly sterilized before being used; the
bottles before being filled are thor
oughly sterilized by being washed in
caustic soda. And if that were not
enough, when the beer is placed in the
bottles it is pasteurized by being run
through hot water, which would kill every germ that might have escaped the warfare conducted against it in
the process of manufacture. The per
son who opens a bottle of beer is
assured absolutely that what he has before him is a product absolutely free from germs and perfectly clean. It is also true that he may know that he has before him almost the only manufactured food product which is known to be absolutely pure. Economic Measure. "But the dairyman seems to believe that it is not necessary for him to take any such precaution as has been taken by the brewer. He ought to be put up against the odds which have caused the brewer to adopt sanitary
surroundings as an economic measure.

partially complied with; that the duties on articles of general use have been treated to a "sleight-of-hand re
duction" that will permit the charging of exorbitant prices, and that the American people will judge the tariff law by its effect upon the bills which the consumer pays month by month. Cannon's Revenge. Under the caption "Cannon's Revenge," he says:

issued for the man. He is charged with horse stealing.

pens to beer unless the bottle is opened and the contents exposed to the air. "The trouble is that milkmen have had things all too easy all this time.
