If the latest announcement to come

Wizard, Thomas A. Edison. is correct.
he has AT last solved the problem Of the
electric storage battery. Ii has been pos

cars with storage systems, but the gen

structive of the commands, not the
most numerous, appears to he that OF
CommanGant Kritzinger, which roams
the great range of hills from Albert clear
away to GRAFT Reinet Kritzinger, whose
name has scarcely been heard hitherto, is
described as a German descended Free
Slater of about IS, dashing, resourceful.
fearless to degree. He has about 500
men. and 10000 of our troops were as
sembled at SteynsbuIg to head him off
Kritzinger apparently split up his com
mand into 20 parties. Our military
methods scarcely give us 20 experienced
leaders of commands in 10000 men, and
SO Kritzinger seems to have been giving
battle when and where he chose, killing
or wounding few of his enemy now
and again, then drawing off to moIe dis

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS
FACTS AND OPINIONS GATHERED
FROM CONTEMPORARIES.

WASHINGTON oouNsELsN NOT OBSOLETE
The extent to which the governmental
maxims and statesman.like advice OF
Washington are being quoted in connec-
ton with the problems growing out OF
our acquisition of SPANS island posses
slops. is lending unusual interest to the
exercises to be held today in celebration
of his birthday in all parts of this broad
land The father of his country saw far
ahead Of his time. He realized better
than any of his contemporaries ana better
than most statesmen of succeeding gen
erations the dangers which would beset
the Republic and the pitfalls into which
a democratic people were liable to STUN
bic. His warnings resulting from visions
of this character have proved prophetic
to a degree almost startling.
1t has become customary with some
men of this generation to look with dis
dain upon the words of Washington as
those of an ldfashioned statesman; and
to laugh down his warnings as those of a
man who sought to bind down a people
for all time. 1t is true that he sought to
build up government that would last
for all time, helping to establish it on the
eternal principles of liberty, truth, JUS
tce, law and order. AS the years revolve
and new dangers confront this nation it
will become more and more evident that
his wise counsels were given for applica-
ton AS long as this republic should en-
dure. Happy will it be for the American
people if we continue to walk In the paths
which he so clearly marked out for us,
and avoid the dangers against which he
warned us with all the solicitation and
vearnlng of father.-Burlington Free

THE YOUNG MANS CHANCES.


young man of capacity, industry and
integrity has field for individual effort
such as has never before exist in this
country. And success is neither harder
nor easier than ii ever was. Success
never yet came to the laggard, and it
never will. Let young man be capsb {:
have enterprise, be willing to work, and
carry himself like a man. and he goes
where he will. His success depends
upon himself. No times, no conditions,
no combinations of capital can stop a
young man who has determination to
honorably succeed, and who is willing TO
work according to the very utmost of his
capacity and sinews of strength. The
real trouble Is that the average young man
won't work He has gotten the insane
notion into his head that success comes
BY luck: that men are made by oppor-
tuniries which either come to them or are
thrust upon them. And he waits for
-uck or chance to come along and find
him. Instead of taking sane view of
conditions and seeing with a clear mind
hat as trade widens opportunities in
crease, he takes the mistaken view that
he rich are getting richer and the poor
poorer. These are the conditions 4
mind and life which are keeping thOus'
ands of young men down, and will keeI
them down. The times are all right. II

ANOTHER CANADIAN ROUTE


Another route from the great lakes to
tideW alter has been opened in Canadian
territory. Ii starts from Parry sound,
on the eastern shore of the Georgian
bay, and runs eastward to Quebec, dis.
tqnce of $40 miles. From Chicago to
Parry sound the distance Is about half as
great as from Chicago to Buffalo. From
Parry sound by rail to tidewater at
Quebec the distance is not much greater
than from Buffalo by rail to New York
From Quebec the distance TO Liverpool is
much shorter than from New \ ork TO
Liverpool As whole the new route j.
shorter than that by way of Buffalo aud
New York city.
But there are other things TO be con
sidered. Nowhere has greater pertec-
tion been attained than on the trunk
lines between Buffalo and New York.
As result grain can be hauled from Buff
falo TO New York by rail at the lowe I
rate. So far as the rail haul is concerned
the Canadian line cannot hope to com
pete successfully with the New York
lines. IL will have to rely on the re-
duced distance. The main difficulty is
that vessels returning to Chicago from
Parry Sound would have TO return cargo,
so that there would be no saving even If
the time from Chicago to Parry sound
were but half that from Chicago to Buf-
falO, where return cargOes of coal can be
secured. The same difficulty to some ex-
tent will be found in obtaining return
cargoes from European ports o Montreal
and Quebec.-Chicago Record.
