Aho reform legislature is making a
mock at reform. AS we have before soid
INC reform the people want and that will
hcip them, and we believe the reform that
they voted for was to begin At the top and
como down. Trim the salaries Of the
larger officers first, and then in proportion
cut the smaller ones.
!he sentiment OF the Legislature seems
70 De- however, to commence on the small
er ones first. The bill to pay Sherilfs only
twenty cents day for feeding prisoners il
OH outrageous thing, and if passed will
amount to about half starving the prison.
efs' a man can't afford to hold an Office
unless he can make enough out of it to
live Oh and support a family.

ihat portion Of the message devoted to
the Assessment OF Property, charges the
courts with error in the Marlboro and New.
perry bank cases. This is another in
stance OF an honest difference of opinion.
we believe if he had heard all the arru-
ments the Governor would have taken sides
with the judges. The material difference
IN The opinions Of the Judicial and Exccu-
1l'c IS as to what really constituted the "as-
sessment,' the former regarding the re-
turn OF the equalization bonrd us the Gas.
scssment,' and the latter the amour: set
down by the auditor against the banks.
AS the court did not think the property
had been assessed {" too low" under the
al Valorem and equality system Of the
whole act, il was bound to say that the
auditor did not have the right under sec
llon 23?, to go behind the returns.

FASHIONS DEGREES.

Black and white lace is finding place
In the dinner and reception gowns for
the approaching social season.
The redingote train, developed from a
redingote or princess back, is used on
afternoon gowns for the house.
Considerable use is being made of
chamois. Blue and green wool dresses
have chamois vests, collars and cuffs.
| There are channels bonnets, and the
Ihamois gloves are in greater variety
and better made than usual.
The old fashioned dolman is shown
for elderly women, and there are ele-
CANT wraps of various shapes made up
Of rich black silk, black velvet and jet
combined. The latter will be worn by
middle aged as we'll as elderly women.
While short skirts for the street are
authoritatively decided upon and some
imported gowns show but little length
ening of the back upon carriage and
dinner gowns, yet the train. when used.
is to be more distinctive feature than
formerly.
Some of the plain matelasse coats are
expensive. A brown one, trimmed in
mink, and having large pocket set in
lengthwise at the right side, we'll back
under the arm, is priced at sixty-three
dollars. The pocket has the regular
tailor flap.
An odd conceit in pockets is the pock-
etbook flap. A coat of heavy cloth has
square pockets set on the outside with
double stitching, The flap of each pocket
is extended in fancifully cut tab that
runs through strap on the pocket, clos
ing the pocket like pocketbook. The
effect is a trifie funny, but the contents
of the pocket are kept in safety.-New
York Times.

After Man. Who7

When the prehistoric gorilla was the
highest form of animal doubtless he
thought there could be nothing created
higher than gorilla. Was not his arm
stronger than that of the lion or tiger?
Could not his magnificent teeth crack
cocoanuts, which the lions could not?
He could thrash anything in the shape
Of living creature, from a mosquito to
an elephant. He was handsome, too, in
his own opinion, the prehistoric gorilla.
What creature had such fine fierce whis-
kers, such long, graceful toenails, such
glorious prognathous jawl
That was what the gorilla thought a
million years ago no doubt, for it is
proved Enthusiastically that the gorilla of
today can think. That is also what man
thinks today. But may not man be as
widely mistaken as his ancestor was?
May there not yet develop by evolution
a creature unlike man and as far su-
perior to him as he is supposed to be to
the gorilla? Evolution has hardly used
up all the patterns in her workshop.
After man goes out may there not come
in gorgeous creature that is dazzlingly
beautiful, that is never sick or mean or
dirty or drunken, that is never selfish or
bad hammered, and never spits2 A crea-
ture that can make this earth what it
might be today, only for the people in it
"a paradise1 Think seriously about 1t.
Why notS At any rate we have the
authority of highly learned gentlemen
that "a psychological differentiation
may commence in continuation with the
Darwinian morphological differentia-
ton" Justso.

About Business Profits.


1t is not often anything is written thai
will give comfort to the capitalist and
his partner in iniquity, the railroad
president whose salary is $1,000, but
both these wicked individuals may get
large fragment of consolation from
the argument of Mr.. J. B. Mann in The
Popular Science Monthly.
Are business profits too larger No,
says Mr.. Mann, they are not He di-
vides the factors of a successful bust
ness into four-capital, labor, skill and
opportunity. By skill we understand
him to mean the business ability neces-
sary to seize on opportunity when it
goes flying past man. In case of ten
boys, say, nine must be laborers and
one an employer. for nature has so man.
aged it that in every community the
majority of men must be laborers. I'm
der the strictly cooperative system all
men would be both, but that Mr.. Mann
does not discuss.
The man who has business ability sees
opportunity; the others do not. He in
terests capital to the extent of utilizing
the opportunity. Capital and shrewd-
ness hire the laborers and start bust
ness. Profits accrue from it. Mr.. Mann
suppoees that the money coming In from
the industry is divided equally among
the three partners-capital, shrewdness
and labor. There can only be one capital
ist and one man with business ability to.
say, nine lsborers, in the nature of
things. Suppose the proceeds of the in
dustry for given time are thirty dollars.
Let us divide il equally among labor.
capital and business ability, which for
short we may call gumption. Capital gets
its ten dollars, gumption its ten dollars
and labor its ten dollars. But there is
one capitalist and one gumption, and
they each receive ten dollars. If capital
and gumption were united, then one per-
son gets twenty dollars. There are nine
laborers, and each laborer gets only
ninth Of ten dollars, or a dollar and
eleven cents.
But there is no business that pays the
three factors in this proportion. As a
matter of fact Mr.. Mann declares that
labor gets more than two-thirds Of the
income Of most undertakings, while
sometimes capital itself gets nothing at
all and its owner no more than one Of
his own workingmen. Business cannot
be conducted successfully where the
margin Of profit goes much below S per
cent. That has been proved. When A.
I, Stewart died he left thirty millions.
Counting up the amount of his business
transactions for forty years, it will be
shown that his profits did not average
more than 8 per cent. a year.

The reported discovery of large
vein of coal at Lynden is having the
effect of giving renewed impulse to
the proposed motor line connecting
Lynden with the Bay cities. The
opening of this road would have very
beneficial effect in settling up that
section of the country, which contains
some of the finest timber aud best
farming land in the state. The resi-
dents of Lynden are progressive and
wide-awake people, and realizing the
poor hope of securing better roads into
the Bay, for long time to come are
strenuous efforts towards the
building Of the motor line.
