BILL rye ENDORSES
LIFE INSURANCE

The following Endorsement of life in
surance is from the pen of Bill Nye and
is characteristic of him says an ex-
change:
In these days of dynamite and swift
changing presidential administrations
and dark tunnels through which an
engineer goes cropping his way at 90
miles per hour, these days of tumbling
signs of the times and tipsy telegraph
poles live wires and dead repairers
these days when the politician and the
deadly bridge policeman with his pal
lie down together under the influence
of the same stimulant these days when
death turks in the air we breathe, the
earth we tread, the food we eat, the
water-the water we battle in-I say it
behoyes US to look well to our insurance
and our future state, ard | take pleas
ure in certifying and saying to whom
these presents may come that since |
became fully insured my health has i'm
proved so much that 1t is subject for
profound congratulation on my own part
and the deepest disgust on the part of
those who would naturally inherit my
vast wealth"

LAB0R'S LOGICAL MOVE.

Labor has evidently re-
solved to find out whether
sauce for the goose is really
sauce for the gander. Not
ing the success with which
capital has met in its appeal
to the judiciary against strik-
ers, the Amalgamated Asso-
citation of Steel Workers is
going to try conclusions with
the steel trust in the courts.
1t will institute quo warranto
proceedings against the At
torney General of the United
States in an endeavor to COM
pei him to show cause why
this trust is permitted to con-
duct It's business in violation
of the Sherman act. This is
a logical move.

Vice Chancellor Pitney of
New Jersey declares it un-
lawful for strikers (girls)

these things and issued at
tachments against the homes

Treatment O Immigrants.

Washington, October 25.--Commission
er.General PowderlJ believes that one rea
son why we have SO much trouble in this
country with our immigrant class is that
we treat them so shabbily on their entrance
into this country. 1t has long been pet
notion Of his that the Government should
print little book, and have it translated
into all the known languages spoken by i'm
migrants, containing picture of the Amer.
lean flag, with an account in simple terms
of what it means and stands; for the text Of
the Constitution of the United States; an
abstract Of our naturalization laws; ard a
few words of welcome and advice, special
pains being taken to remind the immigrants
of the wisdom of learning the English Ian
guage. A copy Of this book, in the appro.
pirate tongue, be would give to every alien
landed on our shores. He regards the pre-.
sent habit of treating newcomers and pros
pective citizens as if they were SO many
cattle as responsible for some of the lacl
of right feeling which we find among ,ner
scho have sought this country for freedom
from the troubles that compassed them a
home. He thinks that if we admitted only
those Immigrants whom we were glad Il
have, and then showed them that they wer,
welcome, it would start them on their ca
reer as Americans with somewhat differ
ent feeling towards the land of their adop
ton.

rumors in circulation since MIR. Rooseveles
entrance into the White House to the effect
that he proposes to intervene in some way
onbehalf of the Beers. These runors have
created some annoyance in official quarters,
especially one published yesterday announc-
ing that the United States was sounding
some Powers Of Continental Europe with q
view to ascertainiDg if they were prepared
to act with her in restoring peace in South
Africa. No such action has been taken OF
is contemplated by the administration.
1t is furthermore stated that no Power o.
Europe has made any representations to the
United States on the subject of interference
in South Africa, and it appears to have
become the settled purpose of Europe to pay
no heed to the appeals Of President Krugel
and his committee.
