Mans Powers lliimitable.

In these days Of many tasks and
freqent WORKINGS, it is a treat to
turn to the writings of Mitchell, the
optimist, which appear i'll the Phil
adelphia North American. In a re-
cent paper, Mitchell was discussing
the question which comes to many
life, What is the limit OF my
powers" How far may | travel
before | reach the boundary lines of
my own individual country, the
land which is all mine aud no one
else's: Is there aught to show me
the extent Of my domain! And
Mitchell says: With such inward
questionings rs these is many a life
concerned. 1t was thus in ages
past. 1t shall be so through all the
long centuries to come. 1t is Won
uer which comes alike to men of
great mental and spiritual resources
and men Of small ability. TO know
just how far the hand may rightly
be put out; just how long the feet
may be led III one direction without
trespasslng in short, to learn ones
limitations is Il great part OF the
business Of our stay here. Until it
is III some measure accomplished,
little can be done 1t matters not
how much a man would do to i'm
prove or beautify a certain piece of
ground, he is powerless until the
land is his.
Mans power is illimitable. He
alone can restrict 1t. He alone by
bowling to the tyranny of small
things can shear himself Of the au
thOrIty with which he has been en-
dowed. The progress Of the body
is measurable in feet end inches,
the onward going Of the soul Is be
NOnu metes and bounds. But the
soul, You say. IS So far beyond and
above that to commune with 1t or
haveanythlng III common. one must
set aside all else Nonsense,
Tie soul is only the better part
Of self II is truth and honor and
charity. purity, obedience and faith.
1t Is never too high to he easy Of
access. 1t is only bocAuso we have
fallen into false IDEAS thar we think
Of il thus. 1t Is only because We
think UC it thus that we spend
hours wondering how far our posi-
hlIltleN extend.

ago. The leaders of the movement
express the opinion that a new
party in Republicanism can bs
formed and they hope to attract in
to the organization some white men,
relying on the belief that the
Roosevelt Administration is siding
to certain extent with negroes in
the South. In other words, the
primary object of the new move
ment is to oppose the so called Lily
Whites. The lead ers of the latter
organization. how ever, declare that
they do not fear the new movement
and express the opiuion that it will
be but a flash in the pan.

Great Falls Laborer Has Key
to Leader Box
AND SECURES TIE MAIL
Is Finally Discovered and Marched Off to
Helena for Trial IN Federal
Court.
Photo by Stein, Milwaukee.

Great Falls, Jan. Anton StriXict
was caught tonight robbing boxes in
the local post Office. He was arrested
and is confined in the county jail To
morrow he will r" +~ban to Helena
under a United States warrant for
trial in the federal court. The cap
ture of Strixict unravels a mystery
which has been giving the Evening
Leader and others a great deal OF
trouble. Last November mail ad-
dressed to the Leader began to be
missed from the box. One day check
for $400 was missed, but the check
never was presented for payment.
Early last month an important news
letter was expected and the post office
distributors were advised of it's i'm
portance. 1t came and with four other
letters was placed in the Leader box.
Half an hour later, when an employe
of the Leader came for the mail, the
box was empty. Today Strixict was
caught in the act of stealing decoy
letters. He says he is an Austrian,
employed as a laborer at the smelter.
He says he found the keys and pre-
tends innocence of intentional wrong
doing, and is surlily noncomunicative.
