sum of $780, 900 per annum. The

"the bill that has passed COM

You claim that three months col

Now gentlemen, this s6 $50 is the

There is another feature OF modern life
that is so different from Whist we learn OF
ancient civilized states that from it we
can safely forecast in another direction
mean the tendency Of modern society TO
slough of social sins. We killed slavery
by natural process. We are sure to do
more of the same sort OF work. No mat
ter how powerful any evil may appear to
be, it is always inherently weak. The
saloon power is evil, and as such bears
with itself inevitable extinction. The
time is not far distant when our
ablest boys will no longer DE

vice than breeding tsseness, and eross-
ness, end weakness, ind sickness instead
of health, and beauty, and power, and
fine instincts. We have 20 consider
not only how best to educate, but how 20
get the best things to educate.
Some form OF cooperation is almost
sure to displsce the present purely wage
system, leading to condition Of social
harmony never yet known. That such
change can be wrought in year, or in
this century, we cannot expect; but 1909
will bring US we'll into the vestibule Of
co operative labor. It Is simply republi-
c.nism applied to our daily living. As
we cooperate in legislation we shall CO.
operate In work. Every man must have

from any standpoint truly open to large
range of facts and rest in pessmism. In
deed that philosophy has steadily Ceclin-
ed in its control of civilized nations.
There will never again be any large de-
gree of contempt for this world and for
human nature. Our creeds and our phil
osophies will be more forward looking
and more inspired with q finer sort of
worlcliness. Our progress muItiplies in
geometricsl ratio. Our average comforts
have more than doubled within century,
while our average individual requ re-
ments in order to be comfortable, have
also largely increased. The world could
no longer endure slavery, and therefore
abolished it. It Is rapidly growing intoI-
Grant OF other vicious forms of behavior,
and will rever cease to improve in its
morals and manners. Eighteen hundred

theology eolarges and humanizes itself as
all other things do.
Arbitrament, as method accepted by
civilization for the settlement OF national
disputes, is principle we snail soon see
universal. 1t is growing conviction that
to fght in masses is no less savage trait
than to fight our single-handed quarrels.
The poet Horace tells us: "Men first
fought with fists, then with clubs, and
then with spears We have, however,
outliYed the duello period. It is
no longer code of honor on this CONT
nent. Still the world is burdenad with

This is mainly 10 the interest Of old Gus
toms and forms, civil and religious; in
herited from brute force ages, that e.ught
to die. The railroad binds. Literature
unites. War is the expression OF the old
antagonizipg forces. But close under
the surface of society lies moral force
that will rise to the surface and abolish
legal slaughter as an older age abolished
human sacrifice. The calm convictions
Of the world as to what is rightinvariably
gain the mastery.
Equally sure are we of revolution in
education. Indeed, it IL already upon US.
The sciences have steadily pressed to the
front. In another generation we shall be
ashamed OF any child who is ignorant OF
the elements OF biology, Of physiology,

There is much talk about a new boat for

a second boat, but are held back from so do

The factory which is owned by Kimball

long and 50 feet wide, situated on Dam No.

At the office we find the gentlemanly Su-
perinteDdent, Mr.. George L. Drake, and
after few pleasant words of introduction,
our friend goes through the different rooms
with Us and we watch with a good deal of
interest the building Of shoe. Here are
in all about one hundred operatives, of
which Just about one half are men, the other
half are women. 1t seems as though they
were all working for dear life. They hard

their work through rapidly moving machines
which exhibit almost the intelligence of

workmen keep steadily at one kind Of work
