Beds With the Grip. .-
CHICAGO, March 4-The grip has tied up the
Worlds Columbian Exposition as completely as
if a strike were on hand. This morning Vice

able to be at his Office. and he was suffering
from SO severe a cold that the physician had

of6cial's condition. although it will not be pos
slble for him to leave his house before to-mor-

COMPETITION is the life of trade in
every channel cut out by business, of course.
If only comparative few were engaged in
traffickinc and bartering, and these few had
their own way through lack of rivalry. the poor
would undoubtedly be poorer and the rich
would be richer but scarcer. But competition,
unfortunately, brings out our bad traits as we'll
as our good qualities. 1t develops that foxi-
ness and trickiness which, under ordinary cir
cumstances, would lie dormant for want of use.
Many--a goodly many. by the way-keep to the
higher levels, waging an honorable war, run
ming a fair race. taking and giving weight
for age in the great human handicap.
Others-a few, to be sure, but enough
to attract ooservation-stoop to pick
up tools which would cut and burn the
fingers of their fellows, and persistently pry
and bore burglariously on the borders of legiti-
mate trade. These be the Jackals In the bazaar
of the world. the foxes in the peoples pre-
serves, the snakes in the universal garden that
all have a rigtt to till. But they do not
hamper even while they annoy. The true
workers in the golden fields go on sowing and
garnering, spinning and weaving, toiling and
thriving. The fercer the battle the fner the
taste shown by this conscientious competitive
class. A new arrival is welcomed, finer mart
is praised a tresher idea is taken advantage of
/ legitimately. and no obstacle is thrown in the
way of the stranger. They realize that growth
has lifted life up to its present prosperous
plane; that increase of population has made
the world a real pleasant place to live in; that
while every new obstruction may catch some
of the drift the current will rise again and it
will float on as before. So to them competition
is the loadstone of traffic instead of the mill
