Mark Hannas Daughter Old line Republicans all over the nation are pleased with the triumph of Ruth Hanna McCormick. Like her famous father, she knows no com-niin her political convictions, bat her party stands for, she stands for; and, fundamentally, the Republi-- i party stands against the World Court and the League of Nations, just as surely now as when Woodrow Wil son and the Democratic party tried to commit the United States to that doctrine. In the election this fall, J. Ham Lewis, the Democrat who will oppose Mrs. McCormick for the office of United States senator, will endeavor to defeat her by running on a dripping wet platform. No matter what the Literary Digest poll may show, she will be successful at the polls. As a United States senator Mark Hanna's daughter will be a Republican, not a progressive Republican, but just a Republican never an assistant Democrat under the phony guise of a Republican reformer.. se s Gas Service Is t I Outstanding The gas industry is playing ing part in the development of a leadthe na- tion. Gas cooking, refrigeration and central heating are conveniences of tho modern home. And in industry, gas fuel has been adopted to thousands of manufacturing operations where it has established new and higher standards of efficiency and economy. Today pipe line systems are being extracted into a multitude of towns that never before have had the of gas service. Gas, like electricity, has become a necessity in the social and industrial development of any community.

It is said that Missouri and California alone have displayed no tendency toward a higher tax rate. At the end of 1930 when the has been collected, American motorists will have paid a total of in five years, over six times the total of the preceding five years. Few people have any fault to find with a fair gasoline tax when all the revenue is used for road purposes. In many states, however, the tax has grown out of all proportion to the retail price of gasoline, and some of the revenue has been diverted to schools, state departments, state debts and general funds. And the tendency toward still higher taxes continues with increasing force. VZ' 4 t . f 4 r $550,-000,0- 00 i Mines Spread Prosperity The Idaho, Miner comit claims is the unfriendly attitude of a leading newspaper of that state toward the mining industry, and says: "It was mining that carved Idaho out of the wildeness of the west. Mining is one of the great basic industries of the state and the development of the vast and varied mineral resources spreads prosperity far beyond the confines of the mining districts. It was mining, as well, that played ,a leading part in developing California, Utah, Arizona and other of the great western states. Today the industry employs a vast army of well-paworkers, contributes a large share of state expenses, .pays fair dividends to thousands of stockholders, and directly and indirectly, consumes products and services of almost all other businesses. Mining prosperity is reflected in the general prosperity of the nation. In view of all this, it Is difficult to understand the attitude of those, whether newspapers or individuals who advocate burdening the mines under a weight of taxation and legislation that would seriously menace their progress. Mining should pay its fair share of taxes and no more and no less. The state which deviates from this principle will be first to suffer the consequences.

Yet, during the years between, the wages of skilled labor rose 220 per cent, unskilled labor about 225 per cent, and the average price of electrical apparatus, equipment and supplies about 215 per cent. In other words, the average cost of electric service to the consumer is no greater than befow the war, in of the fact that costs of labor, spite supplies and everything necessary to the generation and distribution of power have mow than doubled.
