soon as the shops were removed from
there he would shut. down the mines,
Stone worked himself into great pas
sion. He had tried many times to buy
the mines at Carbon as he knew that
the road depended upon them for coal,
and he always felt that he was not as
independent as he might be as long as
the Boston people were in control. He
knew now that his feeling of insecurity
was we'll founded, for here in his own
Office he was confronted by a keen
young business man who had discov-
cred the one weak spot in his despotic
monopoly, and it was either surrender
to him or to his worse hated foe the
eastern coal trust. OF the two evils
Stone gracefully chose the lesser, and
the shops remained at Morristown.
We might continue and tell of the re-
ception rendered to Rev. Boyd upon
his return home, and dwell upon sub
sequent events that led into his fight
for good government that brought him
into the governors chair, but this closes

OF one of the popular churches, had
heard the protests of his parishioners
and knew how keenly all the people
were affected, but it was not until
some of the families were actually
transferred to Lewiston that he was
convinced that Stone intended to have
his revenge at any cost. The injustice
OF this action on the company's part
appealed to Mr.. Boyd and he COM
menced to ponder over the matter in a
business-like manner quite foreign to
his profession, but very familiar to his
Harvard friends, who had often re-
marked that the business world was
great loser by Boyd's determination to
go into the ministry. With map of
the country traversed by the American
Pacific before him, he studied the stu
alton thoroughly, until he had almost
decided that the presidents position
was impregnable, and that there was
no way to block the proposed abandon
ment of Morristown. AS his 6nger fol-
lowed the line of the road beyond Nor
ristown it suddenly stopped at Carbon,
the coal mining town which supplied
the steam producing coal which made
the American Pacific independent of
eastern lines and the Pennsylvania
fields. Carbon! Yes surely this was
the place where some old Boston
friends had invested so much money.
After thinking the matter over, he dis
patched wire, and the reply was
seemingly satisfactory as that after
noon saw the Rev. Mr.. Boyd on the
east bound limited with a half-rate
ticket to Boston.

now the largest stockholders in the
Carbondale Mining Co., was eminent

that night with Power of Attorney
in his pocket, authorizing him to nego-
tiate with Dudley Stone for the next
years supply of coal for the American
Pacific.
He was cordially received by the
president, who could be pleasant at
times, but when details were talked
over and Boyd mentioned that he was
from Morristown and stated that as

SONNET BY MICHAEL ANGELO.
If one pure love, one common JOY, one pain,
One heavenly pity. and one destiny
Shared by two lovers in equality,
One spirit for two hearts sole sovereign.
One soul immortal made in bodies twain,
In equal flight each winging to the sky
And if one fire. one shaft that straight will fly
Home to two hearts, and there will quick
remain, sk
If self-love's death, (each loving other solely,
Love being the one desired wage of Love,
And each forestalling the least wish soever,
BY each in mutual sway enthralled wholly)

Say when shall Scorn SO fast knot dissever?

eloquence says: 81 believe it to be true
that when any orator at the bar or the
senate rises in his thought he descends
in his language; that is, when he rises
to any height of thought or passion, he
comes down to a language level with
the ear of all his audience. It is the
merit of John Brown and Abraham
Lincoln-one at Charlestown, one at
Gettysburg-in the two best specimens
of eloquence we have had in this coun-
try" Still during his life this great
man was severely criticised by horde
of grammar sharks and other smart
persons who argued that no man who
was not learned in both Greek and
Latin should be permitted to occupy
the White House. Lincoln's grammar
may not have been perfect, but he was
a man with ideas, and this world owes
its present greatness to the man with
an idea, not to the grammar shark. If
one of Lincoln's great thoughts ever
entered the head of one of those little
grammarians he would become top
heavy, like ship without ballast. In
conclusion I will say that my own
composition is bad; my grammar is
worse; l know absolutely nothing
about Latin and I couldn't distinguish
the difference between a Greek root
and an Irish potato. I would like to
be learned in all the above mentioned
studies, still I would rather be capable
of thinking just one of Lincoln's great
thoughts than to know all the grammar,
Greek and Latin that college professors
could pound into me with sixty ton
trip hammer. F.M.

III do things for you that you cannot
do. This is abstract, but fair exam
pie of cooperation. Verify, it sounds
well, it has the ring, the chime of eter-
nal brotherhood about it. AS theory
it is an immense success.
Practically, so far, with very few ex-
ceptiOns, it has been failure. One
colony of co-operatives in Peru, South
America, have maintained their system
intact for forty years or more. Yet
they have not progressed in the ordi-
nary sense. Their agrarian labor they
perform in the same manner now as
they did decade ago. Three hours
a day of actual labor is all that is re-
quired of each member. Nature is
lavish there in the munifcence of her
gifts, and only modicum of toll is
necessary to bring forth what is ext
gent to their daily needs and desires.
One might say "they toll not, neither
do they spin." No, they are creeping
towards perennial Information. This
may be akin to the blissful inanition
in Campenella's City of Sun, or trop-
ical dream of indolent felicity, but it is
not the "get up and dust" kind of
naodus oioendi that pumps new life in
to civilization, or increases the circula-
tion of its commerce.
Socialism teaches absolute equality.
This would eventually merge the in
dividual into complex whole; he
would lose his identity and become
the merest factor in great machine
such limitation would ultimately
dwarf him to an insignificance which
has but one road and one ending; De-
generation and intellectual death. He
will have lost his individuality and in
losing that he has lost his all. Individ-
uality stands above all except Law
except Principle. Each of us is enti-
tied to individual integrity, and we
instinctively and properly resent any
attempt to infringe on it. We are, and
remain individuals, however much we
blindly try to infuse our lives into 9TH
ers, or absorb other lives into our own.
There is no standing still, no equilib-
rum in organic life; it is progressive
or retrogressive. Socialism in the
broadest sense is yet to be thoroughly
tested. ALI new ideas and forms are
crude in their beginning; consequently
we may not yet call socialism a trav-
esty on economics, or take it CASTRO.

LINCOLN A NATURAL ORATOR.

like delegate at women's conven-
tion; he does q lot of talking but never
says anything. Lincoln was not only
an orator but a profound and independ-
ent thinker who wrote his speeches
with quill plucked from the bird of
wisdom.
A celebrated French essayist on be-
ing asked for the cause of his popu-
larity with the people replied, because
| always use language that is readily
understood by anybody in the Paris
markets." The same was true of Lin
coin. He always put his thoughts in
the plainest language; he believed that
the sole use of words was to convey
thought and impression. He never re-
sorted to exaggeration in order to make
a hit. 1t was his sincerity of purpose,
his good humored sagacity, his SIM
plicity and aearnestness, his charm of
manner to all and the absence of pre-
tense in his character that won the
love and affection of the people. Lin
coin has been spoken of as a vulgar
story-teller. During the delivery Of
his speeches he was in the habit of
telling stories in order to illustrate
some point in his argument, but he
never was guilty of quoting three or
four yards of Shakespeare or springing
some old stereotyped chestnut that
Noah cracked before he entered the
ark.
ALI Lincoln's speeches were brief and
to the point. His famous Gettysburg
speech was delivered in ten minutes.

Paper Read Before the Chautauqua Circle.

ISTORY teens with the lives of
men whose peculiar aptitude
i i for certain professions was
early displayed. Napoleon, a
schoolboy at Brienne, led the mimic
armies of his youthful associates; Nell
son the great Englishman had con-
ceived the idea of future greatness as a
sailor before he entered the navy;
Michael Angelo ran away from school
that he might have more time to draw
pictures; West, the American painter,
at the age of seven cut the tail off the
family cat and used it for a brush.
Lincoln was as strong physically as
he was mentally, but it is evident that
nature never intended him to be hew-
er of wood or drawer of water. Early
in life he displayed natural talent
for public speaking. He was natural
orator, but was in no sense a spell
binder. The spell-binder writes his
speeches with the pen of emotion. He
uses language that is not tcomprehended
by vast number of the people whom
he addresses, or as one writer has aptly
said, he is a lantern without light
His arguments are always as weak as
his epithets are strong. His words ap-
peal to the emotions only; he says
nothing that has a tendency to make
people think. In fact he tries to avoid
this, because he knows if the people
did q little independent thinking it
would be fatal to the cause he advo-

NEW TWIST FOR LOOPS.
ANOTHER BRIDGE SCHEME PROPOSES
SUBWAY UNDER GROUND FLOOR
OF ENTRANCE.

Still another solution Of the bridge congestion
difficulty has been offered ny Robert f. Gillin.
This new scheme proposes to employ the famil-
lar loop system considerably extended, the num-
Ter of loops being largely increased. The strik-
ing point in the plan is the approach from
underneath, which has been outlined before.
To provide for this approach Mr.. Gillin pro-
roses a subway under the ground floor of the
bridge. This subway would be fifteen feet below
the level of the bridge entrance its dimensions
would be 500 by 100 feet. and it would be ar
ranged waiting room and provided with all
the Conveniences OF a first class railway station.
This sub-statiou would be reached by stairs
and tunnels for passengers from several points.
for example:
At the bridge entrance two stairways one for
arriving and the other for departing passen-
gers. Al the Staats-ZeitunE Building, another
Iassage running diagonally under Park Row,
and in city Han Park in the vicinity Of the
Han of Records. another. which would cross
above the roofs of the subway ears and run
across Park Row parallel with the galleries al

for uniting their park station with the bridge.
