SAT PEACE

I'VE are now at peace with the
world" said President Mckinley in his
inaugural address Monday.
Yet there are recruiting officers in
every centre of population, great and
small, throughout the United States to-
day working hard to recruit So, 900 new
soldiers which Mr.. Mckinley wants in
a hurry to send to the Philippines to
assist in the work of benevolent as
similation."
The latter honeyed phrase explains
matters from the Presidents point of
view. Wal is a horrid word and our
oily-tongued executive doesn't like it.
The Filipinos are being %bayonetted, or
shot to death, or hung, not in war. but
in the process of benevolent assimi-
lation."
Therefore. we are at peace with the
world" 1t is with peaceful and be-
nevolent intent that we are assimilat-
ing the Filipinos and a%ppropriating
their territory.
It is we'll for the peace of the Nc
Kinley mind that it is so constituted
as to be satisfied with these pious
hypocrisies and able to accept them in
preference to the dreadful truth.

AS TO PROFIT-SHARING.

A method of profit-sharing between
employers and employees that has many
advantages to all concerned is that by
which employees are offered an oppor-
tunity to purchase upon advantageous
terms the stock Of the concern employ
ing them. The employee who become d
stakeholder shares in the profits of
the corporation through the dividends
he draws.
The National Biscuit Company has
made provision for the sale of its stock
to employees. A share of stock of the
par value of 500 and now selling in
the market for about 500, will be sold
on the installment plan with S. pay
ments to any employee of the company.
The stock o is earning Z per cent
and dividends are paid at that rate.
Likewise the Illinois Central Rail-
road Company has adopted this meth
pd of sharing profits with its employees,
and the list of other corporations and
manufacturing establishments that are
managed on the same plan is steadily
growing. because it is found to pay.
AS the Chicago Chronicle says, cit is
an admirable method to create a COM
munity OF interest between the men
who pay wages and the men who earn
wages. Receiving a share Of the prof

Deer In the Adirondack.

Utica IN. " Observer.
The winter is one of considerable
severity for deer. The cold and snow
came early and soon the woodland lev
els were almost impossible, Early in
the winter deer were able to feed we'll
upon the branches OF trees blown down
by the winds, which were unusually
destructive. Lately deer have been fed
near the camps on Raquette lake.

prefer the branches OF evergreen trees
to potatoes, turnips or grain. The
sounds of the saw and AK now summon
deer to a feeding ground Woodsmen
believe that fewer deer than usual
will perish this winter. but much de-

THE DEVILS A-CoM.NG.

According to Prof. John Fl. Fulton,
M. A., of Chicago, late of Edinburg
University, and at one time professor
of Oriental languages in the Royal Uni
versity at Athens and the Imperial
University of Vienna, there is a worse
time a-coming than the present and
the earth is destined to have a worse
master than now sits or ever sat on
any mundane throne-not excepting
Mark Hanna. In short, Satan, himself,
is to come among us and take the reins
of power, though it is to be hoped he
will not hold them long.
The present abode of Mr.. Satan it
seems is in the planet Saturn, where
he is now and has for years BEEN" says
Prof. Fulton, preparing for his final
struggle with God and the ~archangels.
This struggle will begin in the latter
part of 1850, being the celestial strug-
gle witnessed by the evangelist and
described in the Book of Revelations,
and Satan will be hurled out of Saturn
to the earth, where the final struggle
for his ultimate and perpetual subjuga-
ton will Zoe fought"
All of which points to a hot old time
some fifty years hence, If Prof. Fulton
is correct in his dates. According to
a dispatch from Chicago, Mr.. Fulton
is now preparing a book. the result of
long continued scientific research, and
which he contends will upset many
fixed ideas of the Bible and it's trans
lation.
1t is not to be inferred. however,
that Mr.. Fulton is in the remotest de-
gree a skeptic as to biblical truths.
On the contrary, he is a firm believer
the Bible.
"By my phonetic system [ find that
Adam and Eve were in existence 1000
years before they were admitted to the
Garden of Eden. Adam was created
by agreement between God and Satan.
The translation as in the Book of Gen
esis reads: Let there be man. This
is wrong. 1t should read: Let us
make man. God was talking with
Satan, and mar is a dual product"
AS to this origin of man there is
much in the subsequent history of that
animal made in the likeness of his
Creator that would tend to confirm
Prof. Fulton's view that Satan had a
hand in his production. 1t goes far to
explaining many things in the make
up of mankind that reverent Chris
tians hesitate to credit as the sole work
of an all-wise and infinitely good Gre
ator. Prof. Fulton's theory lets these
out nicely by s~houldering half the re-
sponsibility for the creation of man
onto the Devil.

A STRIKE NOVELTY.

There is a novel strike on at Tampa,

that II the book was immoral the wo-

about it, as they would not OF their
own voIition read that sort OF litera-
ture, but they insisted they knew what
they were talking about, and went out
on a strike to enforce their demands
against the volume. Then the men

FROM N'KINLEY TO M'KINLEY.

New York Journal.
The President who is to be inaugu-
rated to-day is the same man who was
i~naugurated four years ago, but in all
essential respects the difference be-
tween the ceremony of March 4, 1897,
and that of March 4, 1901, is as pro-
found as the difference between the
coronation of Queen Victoria and that
of King Edward VII.
The Mckinley who took the oath to
abide by the Constitution four years
ago was absorbed in the traditions of
domestic American politics. In his in
augural address he hardly looked be-
yOnd lOw-Water mark.
He spoke OF the hard times in which
the country was submerged, and urged
financial legislation and a high pro-
tective tariff as the most promising
remedies.
He thought that our currency ought
all to be kept at par with gold, but
promised to do all he could for inter
national bimetallism.
He protested against lavish expendi-
lures. Economy" he said, lis de-
manded in every branch of the govern
ment at all times, but especially in peri
DDS like the present of depression in
business and distress among the peo-
pie. The severest economy must be OBJ
served in all public expenditures, and
extravaganza stopped wherever it is
found, and prevented wherever in the
future it may be developed
He stood by the Constitution and the
Declaration of Independence, and SOL
EMMY observed: 1.-The great essential
to u happiness and prosperity is that
we adhere to the principles upon
which the Government was establish
ed, and insist upon their faithful OBJ
servance.'
He pledged himself and his party to
the effective regulation of trusts.
He affirmed his faith in -'the policy
of non-interference with foreign gov
ernments. wisely i~naugurated by Wash
ington, keeping ourselves free from
ENHANCEMENT, either as allies or foes,
content to leave undistrbed with them
the settlement of their own domestic
concerns"
He laid down the principle: We
want no wars of conquest; we must
avoid the temptation of territorial ag-
gression."
The Mckinley of to-day is the chief
figure in a transformation scene as
startling as ever bewildered the audi
ence at a fairy p~antomime.
Instead of hard times he sees an
overpowering prosperity, terrifying
ever to ourselves, and appalling to our
foreign rivals.
He finds the tariff the chief danger
to that prosperity, and longs for its
reduction.
He is no longer disturbed by ever
the gnost of bimetallism.
When he appealed for more economy
in the national expenditures We were
spending S23,27S.4G3 on the army, $780,
1926 on the navy, and SIS, 944, 147 on
rivers and harbors. Now Mr.. McKin-
ley contemplates without winking an
expenditure OF nearly $3.50, 00o. 600 on
the army. SIS, zoo, 600 on the navy, and
$4,000, 600 on rivers and harbors.
In his regard for the principles upon
which the Government vas establish
ed, he has seen the fate Of ten million
people on opposite sides of the world
settled by two riders on al army APP
preparation bill.
He has seen the organization of a
single trust that would swallow all
the trusts that were in existence when

GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS.

IL Is a noteworthy fact tnat Cne gov
ernment has suffered a minimum of
loss through peculstion in its depart
ments in the course CT it's 10 years
of existence. According to a figures
gathered by a correspondent Of the
New York Tribune, The total receipts
of the government for the past eleven
decades have been in round numbers
$780, 0,OJ0, 000. The less through fraud
has been in that time but SIG, coo,
or the insignificant per cent of .0005.
Much of this less has been through
bad securities CT officials, mainly post
masters. CT course, he dcfa1cations
have a%n-cGrted to a mucn larger sum
than $4,000 900, but the red tape Of
the government has saved all but this
amount. Compared with private enter
pIises The record of the public servants
is favorable. Such d~GfalcG.ions as
that OF AlyCrd are much more co--
mon in croilary business than il tie
government service even, though the
opportunities for dishonesty are many.
1t is a Es-icu5 matter fc" an en-
1ploye to steal from tne United States
government and everyone ,;Hcws it,
which may account for this shCEiGg OF
personal honesty among government
officials. 1t is too risky 4 business.
When anyone wants 10 steal from
the government nowadays he gets a
bill through Congress to parmit a raid
on the treasury. Tho. CT this sort

history CT this or any ether coGntry

suggests that the chief cause for criti-
cism by the majority of the Board of
County Commissioners of the action of
the Legislature in removing tolls from

trenchment in the conduct of the fiscal
