IRA nap and Millionaire

Mayor Jones, of Toledo, O., in re.
rent article takes the ground that the
idle tramp and the idle millionaire
should each contribute to the welfare
of the country. He thinks that the
capitalist should invest some of his
money in road building and the idle
vagabond should contribute some of
his time and strength. These services.
in his opinion, would be as patriotic
and as worthy of the love of men as to
risk ones life in battle.

Cooperative Insurance.

We now have over $1,000 worth of prop
erty liable to destruction by fire. Such loss
would seriously cripple our work. In a few
weeks we will have system of waterworlSs
affording much protection. At present we
have no protection at all. Hence we call on
each of our more than 900 members to SUBJ
scribe for as many of the 81 shares of insurance
fund as he can pay ON short notice. No money
is to be paid in; but in case of fire each will
be called on in proportion to the amount of
his subscription. Send in your letters at
once, stating how much you will take. We
don't want to pay extortionate rates to the
old-line companies, and so ask our own mem-
bers to carry this risk on their own future
homes. There will thus be no expense at ALL
except in case of loss, and then merely enough
money to replace.

This place is a great attraction for ''cranks"
of all sorts, sizes and shades of opinion. Here
you find the sensible 'crank" who really has
ideas, and you also find the erratic sort who
thinks he has Some of the 'cranks'' only
reach here by letter and then their cranki-
ness if of the fanatical sort is duly consigned
to the waste basket. Occasionally a new
member starts in about the second day to
make converts to some pet theory or method
he has, but the frequent applications of cold
water he gets soon dampens his ardor.
AS rule those people who ride in here on
the high tide of their own emotions are not
long stayers they can't stand the wreck of
their air ca stiles. 1t is the cool, calculating,
level-headed sort that is to come in on the
home run, if there is going to be any home
run. The lea1ing spirits here seem to be
made of that mettle. they never think of go
ing away, judging by what they say nothing
is further from their minds, and some of
them are noble souls too, wholly deserving
of success.
There is no reason why this enterprise
should not be made success unless bad man
agement creeps in. 1t all depends on the
average intelligence and earnestness of the
members ~both appear to be above par The
management of the concern is strictly demo-
cratic. trustees being elected every year by
the general assembly and their authority
shonld they choose to use it cannot go beyond
the general sentiment.
They do not regard their methods of opera
ton as perfect but they are learning by ex-
perience and improving as they go along.
Taking it all in all the cooperative colony
can hardly be regarded as a solution of the
industrial problem. In their primary stage,
at least they are not able to compete with the
trusts-still they can make Il vast improve
ment over the individuailstic home, both
from a social and economic standpoint and
after all may prove to be the school of exper-
fence calculated to show us the way out of
the desert of competition.

May day opened cloudy and with occasional
showers during the forenoon. but the clouds
cleared away by dinner time and the after
noon was perfect. Several of the neighbors
drove over, but the attendance would no
doubt have been larger were the weather
more promising during the earlier part OF
the day. Appended is the program OF eXer-
cises for the afternoon. The features were
the addresses of COmrade Weirick of Bay
View, who delivered a cldar cut class con-
scious, political action argument, ana Prest.
Pelton who called attention to socialistic in
stitutions which we now enjoyed, such as the
pub c school, the postotlice, the highways

many cities the light and water and means Of
transit, the fire department, the police, etc,

of any permanent value to the people in eX-

Our Duty to the Cubans.

We are, for the time being, in honest con-
troll of Cuba but there are things which we
may not honestly do. We do not need an
army in Cuba, for small garrison is sutii-
Client. We should let the Cubans do their
own police work. We must not allow them
to be despoled of their franchises: utiliza-
tion of which must be to enrich the island
and not our spectators and investors. We
must for our own health's sake, as well as
the safety of the Cubans, set them planning
and working for sanitary improvement. The
island of Cuba is naturally healthy. That at
Puerto Rico is remarkably so for a tropi-
cal area. Both have the great ocean waves
OF water and air as purifiers, and Cuba has
also her high lands savannas and rugged
montanas. Among the things we certainly
must not do, will be one that appeals strongly
TO commercial greed at present; we must not
compel Cuban labor to do that which it's best
desire will be to avoid, and that is to go to
work again under old conditions, at the sugar

Business is reported brisk in the fuel line for

an established rate appears to be fixed for the

huctuation may be looked for in inward foreign
coal values. 1t is singular this year the SINH

ent outlook would indicate that there will be no
low priced coal offered on this market in ls99
there is too much demand for tonnage in other
