THE RIGHT TO WORK.

Probably the full report Of President
Ellot's address viii not support the
rather sensational view obtained from
headlines and from separated sentences
Of his denuncIation OF labor unions and
his praise Of "scabs." President Eliot
may not be up-to-date in these matters,
but he utiers what Is stu considered by
most people q fundamental truth when
he declares that man must have the
right 10 work II he wants to for such
wages as he pleases. When he con-
dennis the prohibition put upon young
men who desirg 10 learn a trade, and the
apparent purpose OF labor unions 20
require their members to work as few
hours as possible. to do as little work in
that time as possible and 10 get as
much ray for II as possible. he may not
be so sure OF his ground. Many mem
bers Of unions do not themselves agroe
on these points.

FROM THE MISSION FIELD.

The Elders IN the missionary field
often experience remarkable manifesto
lions Of the divine power. The pro-
clamation Of the Gospel is accompan-
led by signs, in this age as in former
ages. The following extracts from a
letter written by Elder Raphael Olsen
to Bishop Alya Butler. and dated San
Francisco, Nov. H. illustrates. this
truth. The experiences he relates, are
by no means exceptional, From all
over the vast mission field the Elders
have testimonies of the divine presence,
In some way OF another.
Elder Butler, states that he Is enjoy
ing his labors, although at the time Of
writing, he was engaged in the sick
room, nursing q sick Elder. Elder
Harrison has been very sick for the
last six weeks with typhoid fever. Sew
eral times he was thought to be dying,
but he is now on the road to recovery,
as result Of the faith and prayers of

the following: THE turn for the bet

Less than a week ago the general
manager Of the Smuggler- Union mine
near Telluride. Colo, was shot down In
cold blood by an unknown assassin.
Now the manager of the silver Lakes
mines atSlverton has received an anon

he does not he probably will be shot
down. 1t is very bad state Of af-
fairs, one exceedingly hard to abolish,
for II is very difficult TO apprehend the

Gen. Chaffee's experience In China at
the head OF t.e American contingent
OF the relief expedition was In many
respects unique in our military annals.
His course IN all the complications arls-
ing from international Jealousy and
Chinese duplcity was marked by firm
ness, directness, and a degree OF tact
with which he had not hitherto been
credited, but which served him wen
when called 10 the chief command In

than many Of his military brethren who
have received more substantial rewards
than seem likely TO fall TO his share.

THE SOCIALIST VOTE.
Boston Advertiser.

The fact that the Socialist vote, which
was 1851 for governor in 1901, is 1885
In 1902, an Increase OF 22,Sli in twelve
months, is a fact very well worth taxi
ing into account. with a view to ac-
counting for It, What II really means,
is an important question, II 1T means
that somewhat more than a score of
thousands Of voters In Massachusetts,
have been In one year converted to
belief in the politico-econo doctrines
Of Socialism, as those doctrines are
avowed in their platform and taught
in the copious literature of their lead
ers, II behooves all the rest Of US 20
drop some other matters that are less
urgent and 10 confront this phenom-
enon very seriously indeed.

The Socialists are a distinct class. and
uncompromsing In their views. They
spring from neither party in particular.
They Just grow. At a time when the
Democratic party, being in the minority
IN the AFFAIRS OF government, Is urged
TO take all the lsms and fads to Its bo-
som In the hope Of getting outside
number inside. the Socialists maintain
their separate organization and in
crease their vote. There is more So
clalism in the teachings Of the Repub-
lican party than In those OF the Demo-
cratic. Democracy Is founded on the
eternal principles Of simplicity In gov
eminent and personal and property
rights. The doctrine OF Capitalization
has encouraged Socialism,

Mr.. T. r. Wheaton, of Washington,

Investigating the various sites offered
for sale for the use of Il federal build

he has a similar duty to perform.
Mr. Wheaton's stay has been made

everything that could be done for his
convenience and pleasure We're looked
after as tho he We're a second Prince

to see that a large majority of the peo-

which fact will be a very welcome one

TRAINS TO DO OWN BLOCKING.
New Block System Being Inaugurated
On the Northwestern.

On the Northwestern.
The Chicago & Northwestern railway
is inaugurating a new block system
along its main Inc thru Iowa whereby
the system in use at present will be
done away with Now the telegraph
operator at each station or block tele-
graphs to the block ahead the departure
of a train, and to the one behind, and
Its time of arriving, thus keeping an ac-
curate knowledge of the trains. Unless
an operator fails in his duty the chances
for collisions are at a minimum. While
the present system is very thorough, 1T
entails an endless amount of work for
the operator. night and day.
With the new system all of this will
be done away with, and each train will
do it's own block signaling. All of the
telegraph wires on the road will be put
on the north side of the tracks and on
the south side new poles will be set.
along which will be strung new wires to
be used in the new system.
About every mile and q half a signal
will be placed. This will be operated
automatically. The car wheels, as they
reach a certain place, make connection
with the electricity running from the
wires to the tracks and the signal wiz
be lifted and will remain raised w Il
the train passes out of the block. AUS
1T will be seen that the blocks can be
much closer than with the present plan
1t will be much safer for the trains and
will not be at the mercy of thousands
of overworked operators.
Workmen are already engaged in
making the change. They started at
Chicago. and have completed the work
to Rochelle, Ill. 1t is expected this city
will be reached within a month or six
weeks, and that Council Bluffs will be
made by the time cold weather sets in.
