Sir Walter Halelgh. SLAVES TO THEIR DOLLARS. There aro six slaves in New York City this year, who will not take a summer vacation. In vain the be witching Adirondacks and tho health giving Catskills may beckon to these drudging serfs. The cool lakes and trout streams of New England will not freshen their spirits nor animate them with a new lease on life. These six toll ers are chained to their desks. The cross of labor benrs heavily upon them. Tho dim ofllce is their prison and their dollars are their relentless masters. Clerks may take vacations and en joy life whllo It is passing, but not so with these Imprisoned slaves. Farm er3, mechanics, business and prates munui men may tauo tneir nierrv families to resorts, and mountains not so with these driven drudges. In Wall street these six slaves havo their ofllces and own, among them, $600,000,001). They know no rest nor recreation. They feel no freedom trom tho awful task of guarding their holdings and at their heels, day and night, thoy hear tho demon of greed and feel tho smart of his goad stick. whenever the thought of a vacation comes Into their mind. I lie richest and puniest of this Mixtett Is John I). Rockefeller, worth $300,000,000. His only diversion is golfing and ho Is so wasted by ex cessive mental strain that ho can only half play the game, and nover takes a long vacation. George Jay (lonld, who owus $100, 1100,000, will not take n vacation this summer. His Increasing business will demand his attention. His ste nographers, who get from $12 to $20 per week, will spend two weeks each Ju tho Catskills. John W. Hates, liio ftee lance of Wall street, worth $20,000,000, aged Zl, loves poker, horse racing and the aters, and is a fiend on matching pennies with tho office boys. Ho can not spare tlmo to rost this year. Hussoll 8agc, (ho chief miser of American mlserdom, owns $100,000, I00, and is never so happy as when culling down living oxpenses. Ho Is SO years old and works harder every day in tho year than any clerk in -his employ. When asked recently where ho would spend his vacation, ho laid his hand upon an oak dusk before which ho has sat for 50 years. Jim Kecno, tho rival of Harrlnian, tho shrewd, keen, far-seeing, unfeel ing prince of financiers, has a won derful vitality and at 00, does not feel that ho can sparo time from his $25,000,000 fortune to breath tho country air for n week. And not tho least among this group of pitiful slaves, is the great John I'lerpont Morgan, with a private for tune of $60,000,000, and head of tho most gigantic combine of capital on earth. Whllo some of his greatest schemes aro conceived whllo resting, away from financial euros, he will conflno himself to his growing business this year and will dock his clerks for tlmo thoy lose on a two weeks' vaca tion. Tho;niau on .medium. ground is tho '.happy man, after all. Tho -extreme or wealth Is as pitiful as tho extreme of poverty. In the one, a man wastes his llfo pining for relief from his surfeit; In tho othor. a man wastes his life pining for the bare necessl ties. At the last, tho two Ho down naked, side by Bide, and the turf Is leveled over them, and the world rolls round nml round. Clarence S. Darrow, who was ap pointed attorney for the coal miners by President Roosevelt, in a recent address on "Unionism," In Chicago, said that tho union fover had become so strong that many of the most worthy labor organizations had been suddenly filled up without discrimin ation, with men who do not under stand tlie principles of organization, and who arc willing to hide behind tho union, whllo satisfying a narrow personal spite against worthy busi ness Institutions which are abso lutely Just In their dealings. He said tho greatest danger confronting tho unions is the "hot heads," who will not reason, who refuse to think. This class of men do not seek peace, they only seek levenge. Thoy aro willing to wreck their organization in order to declare a boycott or forco a strike. Thoy aro surely and certainly bring ing tho public to look in distrust on all unions and will sooner or later destroy the entire power of the unions for good, The state of Oregon should be ashamed of tho necessity which forces boards of regents to reduce the salary of teachers for want of funds, instead of raising them. Whllo the legislature was wasting the people's tlmo and money last winter In tho interest of favorite can didates for the United States senate, it might have been profitably employ ed studying tho needs of the educa tional Institutions of tho state. A constant reduction of salaries and a studied reduction of necessary appro priations for state schools, by tho leg islature, will drive teachers from the state, and lower the standard of state Institutions. If over the people come to their senses and take the election of United States senator out of tho hands of tho politicians, the institutions of tho state may receive a little mote consideration. Dr. Kmll Heich, the famous Hun garian historian, hast been studying conditions in America and gives vent to his enthusiasm in the following terms: "The American common wealth differs from Europe In two most essential points. These two points are: The practical Immunity of the states from any serious attack on the part of a powerful hostile army or navy, and tho constant ex posure of all the social and most of tho economical and political institu tions of the states to the invasion, rnlds and warfares waged against tno American male by that greatest surprise of the 19th century, the American woman." The learned doc tor promises to become a fit succes sor of Jinx O'Hcll, In the role of lover and journalistic knight to tho women of America. Pendleton should bo ready to wel come the party of German agricul turalists which is now headed this way, and which will probnbly arrive hero next Wednesday evening. These agricultural scientists are In search of information that will help tho German government to produce more food on less ground. They are mak ing a report on American methods. Their report will bo a directory to American industry and it should be a true one. Every locality In which they collect data should sparo no pains to show them Its products and resources to tho best advantage. SEALED ORDERS. Out she swung from her moorings. And over tho harbor bar. As the moon was slowly rising, Sho faded from sight afar. And wo traced her gleaming canvass lly the twinkling evening star. None knew the port sho sailed for, Nor wiiltner her courso would ho; Her future courso was shrouded In silence and mystory: Sho was sailing beneath "sealed or ders" To bo opened out at sea. Somo souls, cut off from moorings, Go drifting into tho night. Darkness before and around them, wan scarce a glimmer of light: Thoy are acting beneath "sealed or ders' And sailing by faith, not sight. Keeping the lino of duty Tiirottgh good and ovll ronort. They shall rldo tho storms out safely, uo tno passage long or short: For tho ship that carrlos Qod's orders Shall anchor at last In port. Helen Chauncoy In.
