dignifed, but more ef6cacious.
Coal famines are likely to occur at any time
until national law governing monopolies is passed
and enforced. "God in his infinite wisdom" alone
knows when this will come about. The people
demand such law in no unmeasured TERMS but
their chosen representatives in Congress assembled
have other views the subject, and their views
the that count. William E. Curts-hit the nail
the head when he said that to members of the
United States Senate the interest of a few wealthy
constituents is of importance than the interests
Of the country at large Just now the attention of
that body appears to be centered on the endurance
of an honorable member who talked for seventeen
days without stopping "a notable performance even
for the Senate. President Roosevelt seems to be
of the few men in Washington who really desire
to see something done. He would act it pos
sible and would accomplish something. He at least
is not negative Perhaps day he will see
something done. In the meantime the coal trains

larceny suspended

Mankind in the Making"
serial article by Mr.. Herbert G..
Wells, now running in the Comuo-
b0kskan magazine, deals with many
interesting thoughts as to the sta
tus of our present day civilization.
Mr.. Wells asks if our contempo-
rary average citizen is the best
that could have been made out of
the vague, extensive possibilities
that resided in him when he was
a child of two, and answers the
question by saying the average
citizen today is scarcely more than
clout about his own buried tai
ents, failing morally, mentally,
socially, aesthetically to be as
much as he might be.
There can be no question but
that tradition has always been
permitted to play too great a part
in the drama of life; that it has
done much to impede the develop
ment of the best that is in man
kind; that it seems naturally to
obstruct the view and put check
upon thought and the broadening
of minds. Tradition co-operates
with heredity, custom and environ
ment to render it difficult for man
to break loose from the established
ideas of others; hence we have too
few ideas of cur own and are
governed in very nearly every act
and thought by other peoples
ideas, without due regard for the
propriety of our acts and with
little or no thought as to why we
think or do so and so. It is OBJ
vious too, that our social customs
are a great barrier to our general
development. Our best faculties
are utterly wasted in empty en-
deavors to emulate others, socially,
to attain social position equal to,
or little above that of our neigh
Dor.
Commenting upon our social
evils, MI. Wells says people who
have been brought up in house.
holds where there is an organized
underworld of servants are in
curably different in their social
outlook from those who have
passed a servantless childhood.
The former never quite emancipate
themselves from the conception of
an essential class difference, of a
class of beings inferior to them
selves. They may theorize about
equality, but theory is not belief;
and he might we'll have added that
theory is not practice, that theory
is too seldom carried out in prac-
tice. Mr.. Wells adds that it needed
wars and conquests, or it needed
missionaries and prosecutors and
conflicts, or it needed many genera
tons Of intercourse and filtration
before new tradition could re-
place or graft itself upon the old,
in the many practices, customs,
ETC., that enter into our lives.
Mayor Jones of Toledo has an
article in the January Maxusey, on
the doctrine of equality, or at the
least, more humanitarianism. Mr..
Jones Gays, in theory we believe
in equality, in democracy, but in a
| thousand ways we practice the
dreariest kind of aristocracy. The
mayor contends that music is one
of the greatest civilizing agencies
and says we have hardly begun to
appreciate the important function
that music is to perform in bring
ing us to civilization. He says

he adds that the children of the
public schools are yet to sing the
nation into harmonious relations,
with itself.
Four Americans have purchased
a tract of land in the state Of
Sonora, Mexico, embracing $780,
600 acres. This is the largest cattle
ranch in the world, being 125 miles
long and 100 miles wide. It is
being enclosed with a wire fence
and seven Thousand miles of wire
are required to fence it.
A late issue of the Minneapolis
Times publishes a summary Of the
resources of that city. It shows,
among other things, that Mime
apolis has, as most readers know,
the largest -four mill in the world,
the daily capacity Of which is
sixteen thousand barrels, the %
-four mills of that city having a
yearly output of seventeen million
barrels, making Minneapolis the
greatest flour producing center in
the world. That city has also the
largest saw mill in the world, the
daily capacity of which is 8O4, 740
feet of lumber, $1,000 lath and
$500 shingles. Minneapolis saws
more lumber than any other city
in the world, the annual output of
her ten saw mills being more than
five hundred million feet of lumber.
Minneapolis is the home of the
fastest PAGER in the world, Dan
Patch, whose record is one fifty
nine and a quarter. That city is
also the home of the great trotter
Directum. The Times devotes a,
whole page to the many great and
good things of Minneapolis.
There are said to be fifteen
million hungry peasants and thou
sands of starving horses and cattle
in Russia this winter, and yet
these miserable creatures have
contributed very largely to the
twelve million dollars which is the
cars yearly income for carrying
a lot of titles. The czar has more
titles than any other person in the.
world and it is said that he un-
failingly afixes all his titles to.

introduction, these letters begin
with: ''We, Nicholas, Emperor and

Moscow, Klow, Vladimir, Novgo-

His introduction occupies more
space than the body of the average
letter.
1t is said we become what we
eat. This accounts for the great
number of two-legged swine in the
land. There are some people, how
ever, who eat everything and yet
they are not everything, but they
think they are.
