GOVERNMENT AID A lot of people view the government as an institution from which they can demand certain favors and get a few of them granted if they are persistent; they think the government is a gigantic grab bag from which the lucky are able to draw a number of prizes. We must remember that somebody has to pay for every favor granted individuals or class and that some- body is Mr. Taxpayer. The government can pay no bills or grant no appropriations with any funds but the peo- ple's money. The taxpayers pay all the bills of waste and extravagance. The reason that taxes are so high today is largely due to the fact that the general public has failed to realize that it must pay for all the fads and fan- cies of government, for all increased governmental func- tions. If we must have board upon board and bureau after bureau and commission within commission in our governmental affairs, then we must pay for them.--In- dustrial Review. THOMAS M. ItEED IS ALASK., JUDGE Thomas M. Reed, of N,me, brother of Mark E. Reed anti un .arly resi- dent of Olympia, has ast been ap- p(,irted federal judge for the nocth- ern district of Alaska. Judge Reed was attracted to Nome in the mining clays and has continued his residence there, engaging in law practice. He was out last year and attended the Republican national convention at Chicago. THE HERITAGE The Democrats evidently think that  the Republicans will keep silent in the face of their criticisms because the country is not getting back to normal immediately. But there will be no silent acceptance of their unjust insinuations. Eight years of Democ- ratic misrule got this country into needless debt, scrambled the rail- roads, encouraged slacking, and de- layed negotiation of peace. At every turn in the effort to get back to :normal, the Republicans find them- selves confronting difficulties of Democratic creation. The people of the country ought to have these facts impressed upon their minds. Repub- licans will ie and ought to be hehl responsible for what they 'do or left undone during the period of their rule, but allowance ought to be made and will be made for the handicaps under which they are laboring.Ex- chane. ii Come and' See Us in Our JEWELRY STORE ' | We have a number o[ Opening Specials i REAL BARGAINS SEE OUR NEW WINDOW "DISPLAY I.
