The public has nt last made up its mind that its rights are. paramount, and that no fractional part of the nation phould b or will b permitted to tif up any vital Industry and add to the economic burdens of 100, 000. "O pcnplo. The public is opposed alike to strikes and lockouts. If thre is lot paid about lork-nuts, it is brauf they seldom occur any more. It the mine operators or thft employers in nny other liff industry ma!;e a concerted effort to shut down everything nnd top production, in order to win a dispute with their employes, and they will find themselves criticised more bitterly, and proceeded against more relentlessly by public authorities, than sttikin workmen hav ever been. The simple truth is that the public is we.iry of destructive labor wars, and is convinced that they r unnecesary, nnd is letermined to have industrial questions settled hereafter by more, civilized and sensible processes. This is the precise situation In the present case.

OPPOSITION TO BONUS. Thro has been a notifiable reaction lately in the military bonus campaign. The public, Aftr thinking the matter over, is less ready than It wan a few weeks ago to assume a tax burden of 1 2.000,O00,0Oa or so, th reby lnvitir.c: rtnewed Inflation nnd probably higher prices Ju?t when conditions show siens of improvement. There Is more or position evident within the ranks of the veterans thom selves. From many parts of th country members of comrress have been receiving
bales of protects against the bonus, signed by serv-
Ice men, many of them members of the American I-egion. More than thit. there is opposition in b h.ilf r the disabled soldiers, whose interests are said to !. prejudiced by any general bonus plan. An impressive statement alone: this line has been issued bv Iler.ry I. Stimson, one of the numerous secretaries of WAT under Tres't Roosevelt, and now chairman of th r.ntlonnl organization for aiding disabled soldier. In which he says: "Tt is a pitiful fact that In the rush to make a bid for votes by dlstrjbut inc one. two or more bi'lion dollars among the ex-soldiers, generally, regardless of their needs or of the economic effect on the country, thoucht for the ß41."oa men discharged from the army with disability has been rushed into the background "People believe that these hundreds of thousands who suffered are being adequately raped fr by the povernment thrmch the bureau of rar rlKk. ir.snranee and ether agencies set up f'r that purpose. The ery dh uals in charge of these federal administrative bureaus are Th f.rst to acknowledge how little they have been Rble to lo V. YV. Ijnkin, in charge o the division of the federal board for vocational education, recently testified that less than five percent of the;e disabled, discharged men are being cared for by the hoard. "Mrs. Wendell Thillips. head of the 'carryen movement, ha. foun.t m my of the wounded In hosritals without the attention of a physician. "Recent estimates of the cost of properly nnd justl giving attention to i'r, needs of our wounded set the minimum yearly appropriation for thN purpc? at the enormous sum of j nn em.nen " The ration prepared to pay. as well as it can. its debt to th'e who have been ruined in body and often in mind in our service. Rut under the present seriously disturbed conditions nnd. in .my event, fa. ing a ?S.OO'?.OPO,000 budget for the c.-.ming ''.seal ear. it cannot add a snck unr.erf s.iry d.ollar to the load." Congr sv.oral delay in taking rir.al action on the honi.s t-'.ll larg ly el ue to this growing opposition. I'nder the circumstances, it may be ju?t as well to delay a liule longer, until the whojo matter Is clearfr. The proposal of a national referendum, made by rr.ar.y sfrv.ee n'fn, is an exe!lnt one. It has been tupgfst'd that rueh a referendum misht well be taken by the Anurl, in 1-eciep.. tho-jgh that body is in record as favoring the present bonus rlan.

Estimated cost of the delegates .f the "most popular" tuns from in the neighborhood of JT.OOO to mere than 130.000 each Thus tho cos of rtragping the "spontaneous srntlment to the Chicago convention may run well into millions of dollars. If this is to be known as a "republican year" It will take the name rather from ltj barrenne of sntimnt for the r. e. p. rather than from nthudam for It. "Republican year" would then be-nrn synonymous with "the year of the drouth" or "the year of the short oat? " Of rours no rn does the .io!fj,-itei the Injustice of thinking of them as boutrht personally. Those who are pledged must b thought of as the fruit of the campaigns conducted by or for the candidates. Flnre the latter contend that their expenditures have he-en almost wholly for educational purioses. the delegates may be vit-wed as the results of educational cultivation. Hence it is proper to speak of thfl educational cost of each to a candidate arid his backer. To find this cost per delegate ts but a slm plo matter of dividing th total expenditures in the interest of some candidate by the total of delegates pr"due-d by h! campaign. Suppose such expenditures amounted to I.ooq.o oo and there were 100 delrgrites to show for It : that would nie-an 110,000 as the cost (the; $0,000,000 and the product of delegates ir,0. the latter would stand the ducational cam-. p?iign more than 3.1. 000 each. Iid ever "popular candidates" of the p. o. p. And entiment so hard to -dir up? Whirh explains why nothing has been heard fro.m them for months about this as a "republican year."
CAR-TRADERS' TRICKS. It Js well to know- your dalpr when buying a second-hand motor car. The field is especially tempting to the trickster. A writer in Motor L.ife tel's weird tales of old paini oiied to look like new, of new varnish giving a false. air of jocund youth to genuine antiques, of graphite used in place of new bearings or needed repairs, of ether used in th.' gasoline to give a "slowr d-down" car a little tictitioiis "pep" which lasted until the unwary buyer got the car home- and then, vanished forever, of fresh seat covers us.rl to disguise the ashen hue of age d upholstery. ef powdered rsin sprinkled beneath the brake hands to give a slipping brake.' on impregnable virtue, eof Inkere-d speedometers and machines roaring through the streets with the muffler cut-out epen so that the passenger taking his prellminary-to-purohaso ppln would not hear the engine knock, and so on. through a host of tricks that would make on old-sol.. ol horse-trader ju.-t naturally die of envy. Not all second-hand dealers are like that. Most of them are doing a legitimate business and performing a real service to the public. Rut some of them ah. there's the rub! Know veur dealer!
The Rritish ambassador says fJreat Rritain Isn't trying to eibtain any oil monopoly. Sure, Rritain never wanted any kind of monopoly, any more than she ever wanted territory. Rut somehow, things Just naturally seem to come her way. Is it not written that the meek shall inherit the earth?

And it doesn't even make a noise un1p some- outside force eomrels it to. Whe n you hear the boom, boom, of the big ha" elrum. if y-u were not acquainted with it, you woulel say "There is smiething that is accomplishing a great deal. Kisten to the noise it makes!" Room! Room! Reiom! The bass drum Is making a lot of noie again. Rot uc see which one it Is. A great many people are like- the bass drum You know them well. Von met one today. He is full f air. He makes a great noise; sometimes he nearly deafens you with his booming, but in the e.nel what elee-s it all amount to? The political big bass drum: He tells you that the country l i.r'dng to the elogs hecaua his party Is not in power at the present time. If he had his way he would show the world hev to adjust things. There wouldn't be- any more strikes, for every one would get a fair ieal. The scale of wages would go up, and the cost of living would come elown. As now carried on. things are a iligrace. If he were presieient everything would bo eRfferent. Remm! Room! Room! The hi? bass drum is making a noise again. The n there is the business bass drum. He buttonholes von in the stree-t, possibly when you nr on your w; to keep an important engagement. He tells you that yenir way of eiolng things Is all wrong; your sales method is askew; your manner of advertising doesn't pull. He shouts and waves his hands, and says if you will only listen te him. and how he does things. It will mean money in your pocket. You go back to the office feeling that, perhaps, what he says is true, and yooi are a failure. Then you look the man ur In Rradstreets and find that he Is rated nt fifty thousand less than you are. and you feel better. Room! Room! Room! The bass drum is making a noise again. Rcrhaps you are vain enough to want to be a social leader in the town where you live. If you could only be like Mr. Rass Drum, the slick man of the place, you would be perfectly happy. He tells you the price he paid for his house a year Ago; that ho wintered in Florida, and summered In Maine; that he has Just bought a new car for several thousand lollars. and that his daughter is engageel to the Ceuin t de Wind. Don't mind him. He makes a tremendous noise, but if you knew the real Inwardness of things, you would not envy him. You are far better off than he is. Thf world today is full of Mc bass drums. Their booming is deafening. It shuts out the music of laughing children and ringing maidens. On account of the noise of the big bass drums you cannot hear the sweet melody of life, which should All your soul, and keep you content through all the trials that may come. Rut don't be discouraged. Remember that If you beat a bass drum hard enough. It will burst. And (re vor after there will be peace and quiet.

A friend of ourn. a lance corporal in the late unpleasantness, wanted to know if marching in the Decoration day parade would count when they come to pay the bonus.

The Horoscope
vKDNi;sn.Y. jrxK 2. The astrological figure for this day points to much activity and progress, with Mars the dominant note. This makes for enterprise and initiative with the resourcefulness and force to forge through all obstructions to a brilliant and decisive termination. The mental powers will be. particularly active and decisive, although there should be great caution observed in the signing ef important letters, papers er contracts, as Mercury is under a lunar affliction. There is likewise need to exercise caution against fraud, trickery or deception. There is some liability toward irritability or dispute, as th tumultuous and tempestuous Mars incites in this direction. Those whose birthday it is may have an active and successful year, but should refrain from contention and dispute. They should sign all papers cautiously. A child bom on this day will be? resourceful, enterprising and capable. but special stress should be placed upon its home treatment to bring out the best.
