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?
It is high time, nnd as been for
HMtyths, that somebody in authority
wr doing something to correct this
4ygerous evil, which mnv refeult' in
dMtli any day, ' -' '

Organization vs. Knowledge and Truth
-i u
By'E. L. 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
