ACTION AGAINST
 ATTORNEY GENERAL
Knights of Labor Want to See the Anti Trust Law
 Enforced.

Washington August 8.-District Assem- ply No ee of the Knights of Labor tonight authorized its legislative committee to bring quo warranto proceedings against the Attorney General of the United States to show cause why he has not enforced the provisions of the antitrust law known as the Sherman act. This action, which will be instituted tomorrow, Is aimed at the United States Steel Corpo- ration which is, 1t Is alleged, operating in violation of the Sherman act. Labor leaders in this city say this will hasten a solution of the strike now in progress. They say that laws similar or nearly sim liar to the sherman law have been enact ed in nearly all the states, and in several of them, notably Ohio and Texas, the county attorneys have the power of the Attorney General of the State in quo war ranto proceedings.
 The Amalgamated Association has a large fund on hand with which to insti- ute proceedings similar to those to be begun here. Former Attorney General Frank s. Monnett of Ohio has been re- tained by the American Antitrust League to begin action before the state and local courts of Ohio.

ANTS AND FLOWERS.

Like the rest of us, ants have sweet
tooth. Now, honey is produced by very
many plants in their blossoms, but not
for ants. Flowers advertise quite ex-
tenslvely. but only for flying customers.
They hang out bright colors and punch
themselves together so that any bee or
butterfly that is not totally blind may
find them. In the case of the rhododen-
dron they even go 80 far as tc an
nounce. This way to the bar For the
evening trade they. dress in white and
are strongly perfumed. Bees and but
terfiies and such like crawl in, all be-
daubed with pollen from other flowers
Of the same kind and thus the plants
are cross-fertilized, but ants and crawl
ing things climb up and suck honey
from clover and then go to the next
plant, which may not be clover at all,
and so the flower has wasted its honey,
and its pollen all for nothing. That is,
1t would 1t If let the ants do as they
wanted. But 1t doesn't When an ant
comes around all the honey bearing
flowers shake their heads and say,
Nothing for you-not today. No, no; go
on away. Get out now, or I'll set the

and make the fiowers stalk 80 dingle-
dangling and 50 slippery that the ant
rails on. Some open early and close
early, knowing that bees rise betimes
while ants are notorious slug-a-beds.
But that there Is determined, purpose
to boycott the ants is evident from the
fact that amphiblous plants when they
grow in the water where emmets cannot
get to them omit the defense they throw
up When they grow on land. On the
other hand, some plants, recognizing
the fact that ants are great for destroy
ing worms and caterpillars, set out a
kind of cheap lunch for them on the un-
der side OF the leaves. The acacia even
goes SO far as to grow hollow thorns as
company houses for tie ants, as we'll as
furnishing them sweet syrup. But I
think the smartest trick of all is played
by the melampyrum pratense. 1t knew
that the soil on an hill was more than
usually fertile and we'll stirred up, SO it
sat with its head in Its hands for u long
time and thought out this plan of ac-
ton: Ants like honey. I'll squeeze out
little for them. They think the world
and all Of their young ones. I'll make
my seeds look like their cocoons. and
more than that, I'll make them smell
like their cocoons. They'i, carry EN- un-
der ground, and when spring comes
they'll sprout.' It worked like charm,
and you will find the melampyrum pra-
tense growing on ant hills where no
other plantsis allowed. 1t looks like a
low-down trick to play, butswhere there
is so much competition 1T doesn't do to

ROOSEVELT ON PROSPERITY.

lChicago Inter Ocean.l
The American people have been ac-
cused lately of forgetting their higher
ideals in the pursuit of material gain.
Their politics is said to have become
alleged to be dominated by those who
think its chief function ia 20 afford OPP
portunities to make money. The power
of that social element of which Senator
Hanna is, perhaps, the most widely
known type is pointed to as proof Of
these assertions.
! OF course, only crazy idealists deny
that prosperity is the foundation of
civilization. 1T is great thing as
Theodore Roosevelt said in his Spring
field address, ITO have material pros
perity. 1t must be there 80 that on it
we can raise the superstructure of the
finer life. The men who bring business
prosperity, who give US the means to
achieve civilization, are the common
wealths friends. Remember the debt
we owe them
But remember he continued, that
the greatest debt you can owe Is to
those who do you not material but NOR
al service-to the teachers, the soldiers,
the statesmen, the public servants
Woe to US, he said again, IF we have
only material prosperity. Woe to us if
we see and have only that ideal. Woe
to US as nation If we ever permit our
leading men to be BASEL
Is there any real danger that, in their
zeal for material prosperity the Amer
lean people as whole are forgetting
their higher ideals-are ignoring their
debt to those who do them moral serv-
ice? "A little consideration of their re-
cent history-of the thoughts that have
| moved them greatly-shows the unreal
| ity of that fear
That it would have been Cheaper
not to go to war with Spain and to suf-
fer Aguinaldo to work his will is UNI
questionable. But the people saw that
their duty to themselves and to the
cause of real freedom demanded that
Spain be driven out and Aguinaldo put
down. And they gave their lives and
treasure without ever stopping to
count the material cost.
Nor is the nation without leaders to
point out the middle way of sanity and
gross materialism and the Charybdis of
| impractical realism. Theodore Roose-
Welt points It out, and his is no voice
crying yainly in the wilderness. And
he is but one of millions of men who,
tho less in the public eye and mind, still
see and act upon the truth that he de-
| clares.
The heart and head Of the American
people are sound. They see and know
that material prosperity is the indis-
pensable foundation, and therefore they
seek 1t and safeguard it. But none the
less they know and strive to erect upon
that foundation the edifice of fuller and
finer life wherein they and their chill
dren are to dwell forever.
