Built Across the Canada Line.

a Montreal despatch says under date of
oct 10: An international library in every
sense of the word is in process of con
struction at Rock Island in the province
of Quebec and at Derby Line in the state
of Vermont. That 1t is possible for it to
be in two places at the same time is eX-
plainable when it is stated that ii is
being built exactly on the international
boundary line, and is intended for the
joint use of these two places Mrs. NJ. NJ.
Haskell of Rock Island gave funds for
the erection of the library, and specified
that each of these two places should en-
joy equal advantages in it. AS they are
practically one, only an iron pillar mark
ing the border, the building was erected
on the line. The corner stone of the
Haskell public library as it is to be call
ed, was laid on Tuesday by Edison Fitch,
grand master of the Masonic grand lodge
of Quebec, with Masonic ceremonial, be-
ing assisted by his grand lodge officers
and Masonic dgnitaries from Vermont.

The Conditions.

What are the present conditions? Are
they satisfactory? Ii so, discussion is
superfluous. Ii not, let US try to make
them so. Here are ten reasons why
present conditions are not satisfactory !:
/. Labor creates all wealth and gets
only living out of it, and not always
that.
2. Capital creates nothing and gets
practically everything.
8. Labor creates capital, and yet is de-
pendent upon capital for work and
therefore for living.
1. Labor builds palaces and lives in
novels; builds railroads and rides in
carts-or walks; builds machinery and
others reap the benefit; makes gas and
electricity and uses kerosene; makes
The Yakima herald. [volume] (North Yakima, W.T. [Wash.]) 1889-1914, 1901-06-20

fine linens and silks and wears cheap
cotton; makes everything and gets
practically nothing.
5. Labor is inspired to degenerate into
ignorance, vice, drunkenness, dishonesty
and depravity.
6. Trusts in private hands are mo-
nopolizing all production and distri-
button, so that there is little chance for
an honest man to make living, and
these trusts are making the human race
dependent upon them for food, clothes
and shelter.
Z. Land is being monopolized by the
few.
8. The world is filled with plenty of
everything necessary to the happiness of
everybody, yet millions are suffering for
want of simple food, clothes and shelter.
8. Money is now necessity, and yet
it is owned and controlled by the few.
10. With all the great labor saving
machinery, the burden of labor is grow
ing heavier, for employment gets scar
Ger with every new invention, with ev-
cry trust and with every department
store.
This may not seem very bad to the SUI
perficial thinker, but if it is thought
over very carefully it will not be diff
cult to see that system that will per-
NIT such unequal conditions is intoler-
able.

Two Points of View.

The revenues for the support of gov
eminent must be raised in some way,
and the indirect way is the best way,
according to my idea. When the peo-
pie do not realize that they are paying a
tax there is no omplaint.-Mr. Mark
Hanna.
When in any country there are uncul-
tivated lands and unemployed poor, it is
clear that the rights of property have
been so far extended as to violate nat
ural rights, for the earth is given as a
common stock for man to labor and live
on.-Thomas Jefferson.

points in yachts SO as to gain silver
cups not worth anything in money to
them? Why do physicians study and
experiment only to give to the public
without any money return every new
discovery. Appreciation of ones fell
lowmen is the great and really the only
incentive to any good action. All ac-
tions in which money is the sole object
are bad.

How would you like to trade rour stock

stock in the cooperative commonwealth,
with the guaranteed right to work, to-

you'll give.

ceived as result of the discovery
of the "burrs" which are used on

Evening Dresses, Individual

In view of the very pretty thin
materials, such as net mousseline,

party dresses are practicable at
reasonable cost. Light weight
evening silks are also desirable
and, if made at home, need not
render the evening gown very ex-
pensive. Among the Four Hun
dred, however, prices reach high
figures, by reason of brocades, fine
jet or other> tinishings on the
spangle order. while the realm of

may become fabulous. Crepe de

and beautiful succession of
small white rose with correspond
ing competitions around the arm
holes, from which light falls of
lace constitute simulated sleeves.
The sash is of white chiffon. A
