The Dally nint from Farls. slakes prise and tit COMMUNICATIONS Tlie Cars f Reckless Auto Driving The frequent occurrence of auto "accidents" aim especially tho multi plicity of the same recently, will no doubt bring forth numerous tefraiued protests against the scores of speed- ordinance violators wbo infest our streets, but of course, its the old story of "locking the barn," etc Think of the poor little child se verely, and possibly permanently in jured when its a long chance that if the auto had been- going eight miles an hour, or under, the accident could have been avoided, and cer tainly cars should be driven slow enough, within the city limits, to be nuder instant control. Where would n team driver land if. he sent his team down the street at even eight miles an hour, looking neither to the lurt or right?, Iti.the iinyl and that 'wigkty ouick! i Yet auto drivers davit up and down East and West Main, and ev ery other street in town, (except perhapsat tho corner, of, Main and Front, where the'poIiceHieu (l)st&y at, from, tit teen to twenty-fiye Bailed an hour, rand- motorcycles snort around certainly at forty to fifty miles an hour. Even, at ilain and .Front,, right -on the beat of the police from Brown's to. the "Nash," several accidents have occurred, so it seems the least that could be done, would be for, the Council to have published (or tacked on , tho telephone poles) the "Rules of the Road," which every auto own er gets Avith his license, but appar ently doesn't read, certainly does't heed, compelling their perusal, if not enforcing tbo ordinances thereon, for not ten per cent of the auto drivers obfcervothe rules, and many clip off the "inside corner" of a street with wondcrf iily emphasis, and some driv ers, especially the "livery" drivers, simply ignore the .rpeed ordinances utterly. '.Then there are, several young la dies, fnmiliar (o everybody, who Kcorch up and down the streets : in nutos, fpoiii thebridgo o Washing ton pcool and back, and oiuother streets, in anything but dignified poses, and either staring at some luiseen object skyward some 1000 or sqS miles distant, or turned arourid chattering nnd giggling with the oc-i cupantH of tho rear seat; nnd boys with the dreadful affliction "big- liesd," who tear up and down the streets, hutless and their eyes blinded nearly shut with the terrific velocity. All these careless and reckless drivors tnko for granted that every body clsu has to get out of the way. Anyhow, if you don't, they won't. They nro privileged to run down such an insignificant thing as n hu man pedestrian I And if an auto collision occurs, why, invariably both drivers wore on the'' "right" side of tho street, oven if 'only one was on tho proper side, or .both on tho "loft" side, or their wreekago "left" by tho roadside. 'If locomotives (but cun stop with in" their length are held down to ciftht miles an hour on n well-known nml never changing path, nud bellg clanging continuously, why should mltos be allowed to literally fly about poll-me.ll, helterskeltor, hap hapxurd, on all sides of all streets, With seldom, any more, oven the faint squeak of a horn to bo heard?

McClurc All. organizations are based on a conception of triith "which originated In the mind of one or more Individ uals. None are Infallible, and tbo ablest man that ever lived is Incap able of stating absolute truth upon any subject. The best that anyone ksews is merely relative truth per taining to the third dimension. Life Itself consists of sensation, and as all sensations come from external sources beyond Individual compre hension of control, the sole basis of truth tor every individual is bis own instinct and reason. Every normal individual Is con scious of his personal ego, in immed iate contact with a .Mentor of Infalli ble intelligence, that enables him to distinguish good from evil, through the development of knowledge by ex perience. Common knowledge is universal experience of tbo race, which Individuate possess in propor tion to the development of the ego, and is normal or abnormal according to the obedience given to reason and Instinct- Every &ct in violation of truth arrests development, deterior ates character and weakens the will, and In the environment of individuals developed underorganlzatIons that pervert truth, normal development of any individual is an utter Imposs ibility; and the fact sustains tho theory, for the best man living or dead presents a sorry spectacle in contrast with Ideal perfection ex pressed in the beatitudes. Constitutions, creeds and oaths that pervert the. truth cause all the degradation and poverty in tho world. Nature has provided sustenance for all in superabundance, but the state by unjust laws permits tho concen tration of wealth in the bands of tho few, with the inevitable result of poverty for tho many. Tho church, and all social organizations, pervert truth bv creeds, oaths, and ethics, that compel disobedience to Instinct and reason with the inevitable result of universal abnormal development, and has not produced a Blngle per fect type of manhood In the world's history. The following analysis of organiza tions In "The direction of desire" Is a clear statement of tho facts: "A family, a rellglpus seqt, a social cllquo, or the state Itself, becomes a sort of psychical entity, having in terests of their own, interests to which they are prepared unhesitat ingly to sacrifice the individual. Group Belfishness Is as common as, If not nioro common than, individual selfUhness, and is more dangerous, because It appears, to bo disinterested, and Is -more difficult to expose. At the sametlrae tho capacity for forming a group consciousness and group Interests Is necessary and very advantageous. Those races who are without It never succeed In forming stable combinations, and never get the benefit of tho strength which comes frora union, e'ther politically, commercially or other wise. They live- as milts and as units are overwhelmed by those whom tho instinct for an enlightened form of combination Is more' de veloped, Tlieso groups In their efforts at self-realization, find out, mostly un consciously, all tho weaknesses of tho Individual, which will enable them to bend him to their will. They ap peal to loyalty and to vanity, they threaten with ex-communlcatlon and ostrlclsm. They lead where they cannot drive, and they drive where they -cannot lead. Direct resistance Is mostly out of the question; eva sion, deceit, flight, or conversion of tbo group to another state of'mihd, Is theonly practlcai'coursQ'If trio so cial pressure Is unondurable." ' Tho defects and 'evils existing In air political parties Is., common knowledge and few' intelligent voters can bo depended on 'to give blind nl leglence to party when they know that bosses control them all. The popularity of progressive principles has compelled all political parties to profess to be progressive; but no practical plan has been proposed for a representative government that can express and carry otit the will of tho people. An invisible governmont rules the visible government no mat ter what party succeeds In electing their candidates to office. Every citizen expects his party candldato for president will give the country "prosperity, but all have a sus picion that the Invisible government regulates the circulation of money upon which prosperity absolutely de pends. Scientific monoy will remedy that 'evil and until the truth of' the money question has been dissemi nated the state can have no control over tho circulation of money, and tho Invisible government' will dictate the pollcy'of any administration that the people may elect. Common knowledge has already freed tho masses from 'involuntary domination by creeds of ctuirches or oaths of secret, societies; and with tho passing of poverty by tho adop tion of a fixed and unchangeable standard of value, ull.nien-.wUl be freed from tho -domination of organ izations of every kind. Credit and prosperity could not bo disturbed any more than gravity whon money . Is nlaced In roach of everyone with wealth to exchange, it wotild rele'aso nil labor from tho menace of .Idle ness, and poverty to certain' employ ment and a Just share of tho product of labor; wlcli woujd ntlmulato .In dustry and produce such a supera bundance of wealth that sustenance would bo in reach of all, asthe boun ty of nature provided that It-should be,v malting p'ovprty nonexistent. Nothing but truth can satisfy the aBplraflous of man, Utopia Is the Ideal, ,and with Us realization man would tio moro violate the dectates of conscience and destroy -his' own self-respect than he- would "mutilate the body; there would ho no necess ity to exerplso'the power of might to compel anyono to do right Svhen there wan no .disposition to-do wrong. Tho state would have no other func tion but sorvlco, giving all Individuals perfect freedom to follow tho dic tates of conscience and obey. Instinct audi reason. Implicitly, which Js the pro-requjslte to the development iof knowledge and' truth, und-lts univer sal dissemination would niulo ovory normal Individual a perfect' 'typo ,of manhood, ' SACRAMrfNTO, Tab, Sept. 24-4 caucus lasting until litis morning, in which twelve delegate to tho tnto convention here look part, de cided that no cnnipromiso of Hhe Taft claim to the republican designa tion in California should bo permit ted.
