this planet. The multitude who
follow the rich man because he is
rich are as hopelessly benighted
in the spiritual sense as he can
ever be whilst he holds his mill
lions and buys the tawdy veneer-
ing that serves to partially con-
ceal the barbarism of his nature
and the heathenism of his hab-
its. He buys a senatorship, at
his will; he wen buys his
way to the very steps of the
throne; but all his vulgar vaunted
millions cannot purchase for him
a seat within the Palace Beauti-
full of them that follow the rosy
path of the spiritual life. Amongst
men and women of emotion, of
spiritual minds, of radiant, shin
ing, glorious culture, he would be
as much out of place as would
be one of his pigs in a sane
tuary. Fools follow him fond
ly and follow him far, but
the chosen ones of eaRth care
no more for him and his coaches
with the stolen crest, his joblot
ancestral %portraits, or his pur-
pie and fine linen, than they care
for thea companionship of his
hirelings. Dressed in the little
authority purchased by his gold,
he is not unlike the fool having
authority from other sources.
He cannot comprehend that over
and above him is a life of Gull
ture, of learning and refinement
that he could not attain to even
though he were emperor of all
the earth. He may hire refined
souls to do his work of unright-
eousness, but he may not pur-
chase even a glimpse into lives
far above the grasp of his vulgar
mind, his kingdom may consti-
tute his possessions, but the
spiritual achievements of the
worthy he may not compass.

The ARGUS has recently been

Rambler we're to take notes of all
the kicks flied at this Office the
paper would have to be enlarged
again. AS 1t is now The ARGUS
is the largest daily printed in

incur additional expense in maks

There is one kick, however,
which we shall attempt to expa-
ticato upon, not alone because it
comes from the ladies' but be-
cause we shink it justified. It is
those 'stobacco worms and Gigs
arctic feuds who occupy the
principal street corners and stand
in front of the stores and void
their rheum on the sidewalks in
heavy solutions, making it nee
essary for ladies who pass 80
raise their skirts into the air in
order to keep from being satur-
ated with tobacco juice. The
cutters r nearby and it would
be an easy matter to step to the
i curling and unload a mouthful
of amber. Then there is the freck-
led face ''guy" who smokes ciga-
rettes and blows the smoke into
the faces Of the ladies as they
pass. All this is very annoying,
but at present there IS no re-
dress from it. These ill-mannered
people are not disturbing the
peace and have violated no law.
The law did not contemplate any
such trouble. and there is no
penalty prescribed. What shall
