TO Re-Examine Rural Routes,

1t is stated that re-examination of
of all the free rural routes established
in the various states Is going to be
ordered and that wherever they fail to
meet the conditions requisite they will
be discontinued. A number have, it
is said, been established without the
requisite number of persons taking
mail along the route, the minimum of
which is $50, and all these, it is said,
will be discontinued. We do not think
any in this county will come under
this head, as there are none with less
than forty heads of families, which,
allowing four persons for each family
will bring the number up to 100. Sew
eral have nearly 100 names, which
would bring them up to three times
what the law requires. The matter Of
paesabIe IDS is also something which
will be considered, and if th=re are
any bad roads or pieces of road, those
living along the route, if they desire
to keep it, should see that its condi-
tion is bettered at once. It is con-
venience which the farmers having
once enjoyed will not willingly forego

Warning to WOrkingmen Issued bv
western Federation of Miners.
The following warning has been is
sued by Charles Meyer and William D.
Haywood, president and secretary re-
spectively of the Western Federation
Of Miners:
The capitalistic combinations Of the
west are acting in concert to bring
from the eastern states tide of immi-
grafton that will inu1ldate the Rocky
mountain regions and the Pacific slope,
with no other object in view than to
starve labor into abject serfdom.
There are now thousands and tens Of
thousands Of men and women in the
west whose hands are tied in idleness,
The seductive and alluring circulars
that are being scattered throughout the
eastern states are the products Of lit
erary bureau that has been established
by employers associations. promotion
companies and mine owners asso-
cations, whose capital expands as
hungry and homeless workingmen be-
come fierce competitors on the labor
market for jobs.
The voice Of discomfort is heard all
over the west Strikes, injunctions
and boycotts are dourishing between
the Missouri river and the coast, from
British Columbia to Mexico, and should
warn the labOring man of the east that
bis presence in the west will only en-
nble the corporate interests to prolong
the struggle Of the masses against the
robbery Of exploitation.
Thousa nds of workincmen are being
landed in the western states every week
on account Of cheap fares and the mis-
leading pamphlets that extend such
generous invitations to the laboring
men of the east Stay away from the
west! The volcanic rumbling Of war
between employer and employee can
be heard in every state of the west
and it is the intention Of the corpora.
tfons to use eastern immigration as
strike breaking aggregation. Conflicts
between organized labor and organized
capital are raging throughout British
Columbia. the Pacific slope and inter-
mountain region, and the employers
VI t1le west WIZ lonS LOT larger ulTl-
dends desire to pit the immigrat ton
from the eastern states against the men
Of the west who dare to ask for a
reasonable remuneration for their toll.
While wages in the west may be q
little higher than in the east, the cost
Of living is far more expensive and the
difference in wages is consumed by
the higher prices in the necessaries Of
life. Members Of organized labor and
all workingmen, stay away from the
west until the storm cloud disappears
from labor's sky.

Raise Your own Fish,

The fish commission at Washington
bas distributed this season from the
hatcheries belonging to the national
government to lakes and rivers through
out the country about ] , $50. 900, 900 fish
let's. Nearly all these fsh were re-
leased in public waters. . It may he
information to many to know that in
dividuals having their own fish pond
may also share in the distribution of
these fshlets. Domestic fish culture
is still very limited in this country,
and probably will be for many years,
although there is no reason why most
of the farmers of the United States
and other people who live in the
country should not raise their own
fish as we'll as poultry, because it is
quite as easy to do SO in localities
where running water may be utilized.
Anyone who desires can obtain sup
ply of ''fry and fngerlings," as the
little fish distributed by national COM
mission are called, If they have suita-
BILE water. The commission has a
blank application which is sent out to
people who want to raise fish on their
own farms, and if the replies to the
questions are satisfactory and the en-.
dorsement of q senator or representa-
tive=can be obtained, which is easy, 3
stock OF fish suitable for the cond ditions
will be forwarded by express from the
nearest hatchery. .< s - .>ssz

Emerson on
GreQfneSS

There are geniuses in trade as we'll
as in war or the state or letters, and
the reason why this or that man is for
tunate is not to be told. 1t lies in the
man. That is all anybody can tell you
about it.
He who by force of will or Of thought
is great and overlooks thousands has
the responsibility of overlooking. With
every influx of light comes new dan
ger. Has he light? He must bear wit
ness to the light and always outrun
that sympathy which gives him such
keen satisfaction by his fidelity to new
revelations of the incessant soul.
Men seek to be great. They would
have Offices, wealth, power and fame.
They think that to be great is to get
only one side Of nature, the sweet,
without the other side, the bitter.
He is great who confers the most
benefits. He is base-and that is the
one base thing in the universe-to re-
ceive favors and render none. In the
order Of nature we cannot render ben
ef1ts to those from whom we receive
them, or only seldom. But the benefit
we receive must be rendered again,
line for line, deed for deed, cent for
cent, to somebody.
Great men are co1lyrium to clear
our eyes from egotism and enable us to
see other people and their works.

At a subsequent meeting the New
York builders organized temporarily by
the appointment of an emergency COM
mittee, and the work Of perfecting
their organization was placed in this
committees hands. One of the commit
tee said after the meeting:
Our efforts will probably result in the
organization of a national federation Of
employers. who have millions Of men In
their employ in all branches of the build
ing trades throughout the country. This
II necessary. will be an offset to the
claims to control 100000 workingmen.
When an emergency like the present arises
and the unions seem to be running anuck
all over the country. making intolerable
demands which it would be ruinous to ac-
cede to- the question of wages and hours
of la Dor figures very little. 1t Is question
of industrial independence.

hold Of the situation without gloves, and
the result. I believe will be more satis-

chitects and owners Of buildings. ask

ton.
Another active member Of the young
movement said in discussing the prob
able methods to be pursued:
Should any lumber dealer prove dis
loyal to the association he will be disci-
plined just as the labor unions punish
members who violate their rules. Not
only will a disloyal member be boy
cotted by the other dealers. but influence
will be brought upon the national asso-
citation. which is practically the selling
agency of the producers. to make trouble
for the refractory firm.
A still more powerful weapon in the
hands Of the association is the support
given it in the present fight by powerful
banking institutions. Any concern which
hampers the undertaking Of the associat-
ed firms will not get anything exceptional
in the way of financial accommodations.
While these gentlemen have frankly
stated that they are taking a lesson

EMERSON ON
FRIENDSHIP

The soul environs itself with friends
that 1t may enter into a grander self
acquaintance or solitude. and it goes
alone for season that it may exalt its
conversation or society. This method
betrays itself along the whole history
Of our personal relations. Ever the In
shnct Of affection revives the hope Of
union with our mates, and ever the re-
turning sense of insula ton recalls US
from the chase. Thus every man
passes his life in the search after
friendship.
There are two elements that go to
the composition Of friendship, each so
sovereign that l can detect no superb
ority in either no reason why either
should be first named. One is truth. A
friend is person with whom ( may
be sincere. Before him l may think
aloud. The other element is tender
ness We are holden to men by every
sort of tie-by blood, by pride, by fear,
by hope, by lucre, by lust, by hate, by
admiration, by every circumstance and
badge and trifle-but we can scarce be-
lieve that so much character can SUBJ
sist In another as to draw US by love.
Can another be so blessed and we so
pure that we can offer him tenderness?
When a man becomes dear to me, I
have touched the goal Of fortune
Friendship requires that rare mean
betwixt likeness and unlikeness that
ptQues each with the presence Of pow
er and Of consent in the other party.
Let me be alone to the end Of the
world rather than that my friend
should overstep by a word CT look
his real sympathy. l am equally balk-
ed by antagOnism and by compliance.
Let him not cease an instant to be him.
SELF
Friendship demands a religious treat
ment. We must not be willful; we must
not provide. We talk Of choosing our
friends, but friends are self elected.
reverence is great part of it. Treat
your friend as spectacle. OF course
If he be man he has merits that are
not yours and that you cannot honor
il you must needs hold him close to-
your person. Stand aside Give those
! merits room. Let them mount and ex-
pand. Be not so much his friend that
you can never know his peculiar ener-
| gtes, like fond mammals who shut up
| their boy in the house until he is al
! most grown a girl
Let us buy our entrance to this guild
by long probation. Why should we
desecrate noble and beautiful souls bv
lntruding on them? Why insist on
rash personal relations with your
friend? Why go to his house or know
his mother and brother and sisters?
Why be visited by him at your own?
Are these things material to our cove
nant? Leave this touching and claw
ing. Let him be to me a spirit \ mes
sage, thought, sincerity, glance
from him l want but not news nor
pottage. I can get politics and chat and
neighborly conveniences from cheaper
companions. do then with my friends
as do with my books-I would have
them where l can find them, but I
seldom use them
