UWION(ILABEU Did the love of gain ever make a hero or a martyr? Did It ever win a battle? Will a man do most for love or for money, for honor or money, for duty or for money? Having no money, does a genius become a fool? Having much money, does a fool become a genius? Did any nation, loving money, ever become great; or, gain- ing riches and luxury, ever remain great? Robert Blatchford. : :- I WELL DIRECTED RIVALRY. "Individualism" and "incentives to take tho Initiative" are the con tinuous and tiresome howls of the plutocratic grafters whonover u practical scheme Is proposed by which their combination can be re stricted. But they are in their palmy days of unabridged power over courts, legislatures, congress and the producers. Listen for (he wall and the cloud of dust that will go up when the farmers' trust (now tin the way to realize n good effect ive organization) begins to get in Its work: when tho output of livestock, grain and fruit is purposely and sys tematically restricted to keep up prices for the farmer, as tho output of the packing houses, canneries and mines is now restricted to keep up prices for the trusts controling those Industries. "Individualism" and "In centives to take the initiative" are just as sacred principles for farmers and laborers ns for manipulators of trusts and the outcome will bo trusts of farmers and laborers, controling the output of raw material and amount of available human effort called "labor." Congressman Cusbman, of Wash ington, has again offered a prize '-f $100 to be given to the best essay writer In the seventh or eighth grades in the state's schools. This year the subject chosen Is, "The Ex pedition of Lewis and Clark." Last year the subject was, "The State of Washington," and the prize was won by a Walla Walla boy In the seventh grade. Historical accuracy, literary ability and grammar are the feat ures which decide the contest. Hundred dollar prizes may not be available, but the institution of a rivalry of this kind In the schools of Umatilla county, Is possible with a much smaller sum as the scholars' objective, and could be made to yield some very pretty and effective results. To save human life and to save boys from becoming cripples, the po lice and the railroad employes should at once begin to make exam plen of the young idiots who play on and around moving trains. They are reckless, irresponsible, fool pests. They nre a continual Irritation and e'esperation to the trainmen, who hMe something else to do besides chasing these "naturals" out of dan ger. Sooner or later someone will be killed or maimed for life. That is the inevitable result sooner or later. It is a mero matter of time. In the name of common humanity and common sense, begin the ar rests, fines and Imprisonments at once. Don't you people who believe In applying the same standards of mor ality and good government to a city that every good citizen applies In his own conduct, think for a moment that "evil Ib self-destructive," that "the right will prevail because It is right." These doctrines are balder dash, no matter what their origin Is whether they came from pagan, atheist or Christian sources. Evil Is a noxious weed that dies only to be succeeded by another of the same species unless the soil is digged and the seed of a better product planted. The right prevails only when it is made to prevail by sacrifice and suf fering. The abolition of feudalism, the Reformation, a democratic form of government In America, the abo lition of human slavery, religious lib erty, and every other form of moral advancement have been accomplish ed; did not accomplish themselves. Mini, we say, "have been accoin 'pllshed; did not accomplish them selves." "God's will Is done" In municipal government only as some body with will and self-sacrificing Instincts gets behind and under doc trines and principles and brings them to pass. This Is a lesson for tho lalssez falre, who think that truth and righteousness aro dynamic forces that work themsolves Into tho ascendancy; which belief is a falla cy and shall wo say It? a subtor fugo to gut rid of personal respon sibility Tho spark of divinity that A proposition in economics that will not stand applying In the man agement of one's personal affairs will bankrupt a city If persisted In. The city in the aggregate is an In dividual, and the profit and loss page must be balanced at the ex pense or to tho profit of the Individ uals who comprise tho municipality, just as surely as of the municipality itself. SLAVERY UNDER MONOPOLY. Tho monopoly prices that we pay on protected goods amounts to $500, 000,000 a year. That represents the labor of 700,000 slaves. It Is moderate to say that tho ex cessive charges of street and steam railroads and other public, service corporations amounts to $25,000,000 a year. That represents the labor of 350,000 slaves. But what about ground rent? This Is unmistakable tribute. How much pure ground rent is paid by the peo pie In the United States? Ftom re liable data at hand I estimate it to he six billions a year. Let us sub tract four millions to keop well with in the truth. That represents the labor of nearly three million slaves. Tho essence of slavery Is this, that a man should be deprived of the fruits of his labor. The money which Is taken from us In tho form of ground rents, wnr revenues and monopoly profits Is tho equivalent of our labor and tho proof of our slav ery. The want ads, in our news papers havo taken the place of the old auction block, and the pangs of hunger do tho work of the over seer's whip. Slavery remains. Tho landlords and tho tariff barons alone havo a mastory over tho fruits of men's labor which Is vastly moro valuable to thum than was tho labor of tho negro to tho chattel slave holder. I . Wo may not bo ablo to think in millions, but wo can imnglno some thing of the horrors of chnttol slav ery, and tin wlm Inribfl linnnntl. form of our civilization must find a slavery moro fnrrreaclilng, moro' firmly ontronched, and no less torrl ble In Its way than tho slavery of tho past Rev. Herbert S. Hlgelow.l HOW TO DE A MAN. Tho wny to keep tho current of your brain moving, the wny to keep I meutnlly alive, Is to keop on nlwnys learning something. Read, study. When you hear of a sound book bowarc of new unes get that book, ami think your way through It. R4M11I regularly, read llttlo and road carefully no moro than you can comfortably digest. The page of a book that arous"s no active thought Is wasted. It Is as though you should swallow waste paper Instead of bread. Your food Is wasted and worse than wasted li It falls to build up j pew blood and new tissue. i The food that you give your mind is worso than wasted it It falls to build up new thought, iiew thinking power, new ambition to know more. , How is It with you who rend this ' tonight? ! Is your inlnd ns active as it was when vou wore younger? Are you ns ambitious us you ovor were? Do you look around nut! ahead eagerly for opportunities to distinguish yourself? Or are you settling into a rut of resignation, of lack of confidence In youself or of foolish complaining about the world and its opporhml-1 ties? If you are losing ambition, losing mental activity, losing the keen .n- terest in life and Its chances, look out. Your mental pipes are free- ing. , Start up the current again, feed your mind, keep It moving in search , of truth. ! RISING And many other painful and serioug ailments from which most mothers suffer, can be avoided by the use of T lYIOtnsrs rTlunil, 1 Ins great remedy is a God-send to women, carrying them through their most critical ordeal with safety and no mm No woman who uses "Mother's Friend'' need fear the suffering and danger incident to birth; for it robs the ordeal of its horror and insures safety to life of mother and child, and leaves her in a condition more favorable to speedy recovery. The child ia also healthy, strong and good natured. Our book "Motherhood," is worth its wcitrht in cold to every woman, and will be sent free m plain envelope by addressing application to Brud field Regulator Co. Atlanta, Ga. FRIEND AN EXCITING TIME need not lead you to forgot this fact - and it is a fact- that we can wnsli our shirt clean, starch it properly and iron it so that when finished and out of our hands you will lie glad to wear it Further, what applies to linen serves to show with equal truth fulness what we can and will do with anything else yon leave with us for laundering. Goods called for and delivered. THE DOMESTIC STEAM LAUNDRY Kail In this and you will bo like one of those frozen water pipes that , ive no letum when tho water is turned on. You will be like the professor's partly dissected frog that went on ! living mid hopping after its brain had been removed. Set your brain to work. If It !s , clogged up with nlcohol, tobacco, conceit, whining complaints, clear it out. I Think, study, talk to the mo3t in , telllgent men you can find. Drop j the frozen fools whose dull company you may have been keeping. I Don't bo a frozen pipe or a dls-1 sected frog. He n man. Chicago American. I r AMERICAN INTEREST IN KOREA. In fact, Americans, so far as busi ness enterprises and tho money in vested In them are concerned, have larger interests in Korea than all the other nations combined. Ameri cans constructed and sold to the Japanese tho Chemulpo-Seoul rail road. Americans constructed for the Ko rean government ( and have not vet been entirely paid for tho same) the electric railway in the city of Seoul itself, and some eighteen or twenty miles of suburban roads. Americans have also constructed lighting plants for the city of Seoul, and nre investing in the develop ment of n water system for tho capi tal. Americans import into Korea immense quantities nf kerosene oil, of canned goods, and of cotton cloth. Americans own, In association with English nnd French capitalists, the largest single enterprise In Ko rea, and one of the largest In Asia, a mining concession in tho north ern part of Korea. American mis sionaries, also are doing a magnifi cent work in Korea, So that Ameri can interest Is not alono the inter est which attaches to exciting and important events, but Is based upon the actual conditions of existing trade und property In Korea as well as upon the future possibilities of tho entire Asiatic commerce.
