Arthur then said he couldn't get along

AduIteration of Food.

The supreme court of the state yes
terday made a decision under the pure
food law which settles point that has
been for long time in dispute. A gro
Ger convicted of selling a bottle of
raspberry syrup that had been adul-
tcrated contended that the statute was
not violated unless the quantity of for
egn substances is sufficient to make
the compound poisonous or injurious to
health. The court rejects this claim and
substantially affirms that adulterated
food is adulterated food, regardless of
the quantity of the adulteration. The
superior court had previously taken a
similar position in the same case.

A WASTED LIFE. :

son. Thomas Lacey was not man
with a very large circle of acquain-
/ tances or friends. He claimed no par
| ticular spot as his home. For many
years he has been a wanderer, the past
few years spending most of his time in
towns along this division of the G. q.
W. The fact that he made no preten-
TONS lived honestly and paid his way
as he went kept him from gaining
friends or making enemies. Connected
with his life, however, are q few things
that may be interesting to those VINO
knew him. Born in Ireland about forty
five years ago, he came to America
when 10 years of age. About thirty
years ago he and his father came TO

near Arlington on a farm. Thomas did
not remain long on the homestead, he
preferred working for others. and final

RESULT OF SHIP SUBSIDY.

Those who have merely contented
themselves with opposition to ship SUBJ
sides from principle or prejudice
should look around and learn what 9TH
er nations are doing The T.-R. printed
a clipping from the London Times re-
Gently, showing that fear exists in
Great Britain over the prospect that
the United States will foster home
shipping by subsidies. An example OF
what one nation may do in the way OF
developing it's merchant marine is at
forded by Japan. The st. Louis Globe
Democrat, an excellent republican pa
per, refers to it in this way:
Japan, which was a hermit nation
fifty years ago, has abundantly proved
the existence of Oriental energy and
ability 1t is reaching out for the COM
merce of the Pacific and making rapid
Roadway. 1t is building fine modern
steamships and establishing important
steamship lines. Some of it's steam-
ships are running to our coast and to
Australia. Japan has three great dock
yards at different ports. AT the one sit
uated at Nagasald over 5000 japanese
workmen are employed, and it has re-
tons each for Japanese ocean steam
ship company. The granite docks ac-
commodate vessels 500 feet long and
are provided with a marine railway,
electric power and all the latest ma
chinery. Nine ships are under con-
struction there at this time. Hitherto
the japanese have imported iron and
steel from Europe, but now have coal
and iron mines and steel plant of
their own.
Japan is practical believer in pro-
lection, including ship subsidies. A
British diplomatist familiar with the
far east, Sir Claude Macdonald says
that as the shipbuilding industry in
Japan lis fostered by protective legis-
lation, it promises WELL" AS matters
stand the japanese are carefully and
literally substituting their ships on the
Pacific and relatively moving ahead of
the United States in it's development of
ocean transportation. Our ships vanish
from the seas, while those of other
countries, under judicious system Of
subsidies. multiply in our ports and
carry the American freight we should
handle under our own ensign. Free
traders are so curously constituted
that they would be glad to see furled
the last American merchant flag on the
ocean. But congress in it's representa-
tive capacity Will show that the Ameri-
can people propose that we shall have
more ships not fewer.

Mr.. Carnegie has explained it. He
knew how to use other men, to direct
the labor of other men. he knew how
to gather around him men who knew
more than he did. Not that these men
would all have made the same success
at the head of the steel corporation but
that each in his department was an ex-
pert of far greater ability than Mr..
Carnegie would have been had he I'M
dertallen the work of that special de-
partment. In the hundreds of depart
ments of the steel industry, at the ore
mines on the ships, at the furnaces, in
the offices. etc. Mr.. Carnegie placed
men who knew more about their own
work than he did himself and by di-
recting their work Mr.. Carnegie was
able to amass a fortune so vast as al
most to exceed all comprehension.
The secret of Mr.. Carnegie's success
is the secret of practically all million
aires They possessed the faculty of
gathering around them men whose
combined efforts produced millions
Realizing the part others have taken in
his fortune making Mr.. Carnegie has
devoted his declining years to a careful
and iudicious distribution of the profits
he has gained. If ony one attempts to
thank him for library or pension fund
for employees he replies Flush, who
knows but they are entitled to much
more than they are getting" Carnegie
has mastered the situation which con-
fronts all millionaries. Some of them
are trying to do what Carnegie is doing
and it is encouraging TO note that the
spirit of the times is to emulate the
Carnegie example in greater numbers.
The great captain of commerce to-day is
the man who knows how to gather
around him men who know more than
he does but when the millions have be-
gun to accumulate and cummulate there
