SUCH LOVELY HARMONY,

Mayor Hunt SAID in an interview at
Washington, u. c., a few days ago that
he and Other former dyed in the
wool" democrats in this state had gone
over to the Republican party to stay
and that about the. only thing that
could cause as1oiitical change would
be dissensions and feuds within the
republican party and d failure of
crops"
Tuesdays Union said:
The opposition is comforting itself
over the possibility Of the republican
party in the state of Washington get
ting into a squa3ble that will give the
state over to them. They had better
not count too much upon internal dis
sensions, The republican party has
some sensible men left in it and they
are not going to do so foolish as TO act
as the democrats imagine they will"
This mornings Union says:
The next republican state conven-
ton Will nominate republicans from
the top to the bottom of the ticket.
Nc tWo-faces. double dealers. or mug
Wumps need apply. and that means
that the name Of Mcbride will be con-
spicuous by its absence from the
ticket"
OF course by the two faces and
double dealers" the Union refers to re-
publican members of the legislature
who secured their election by promis-
ing to DO all in their power to carry
out the declaration of the last party
platform in favor of z railway commits
sion and then reDudiated their pledges
at the behest Of the railroad lobby and
IN the interest Of its senatorial canGi-
date. None If these promise breakers
need expect hOnors from the next re-
publican state convention. They solo
their birthright fer mess of pottagt
and they must he satisfied with the
mess no matter how stale and offensive
Il may have become. The use Of such

WHAT LA'rOR AND CAPITAL ARE

There a tendency on the part Of
those who discuss the Industrial sit
uation to use the terms capital and
capitalist very loosely, and often with
Very little conCeutiOn of what they
mean. says the NV York Times. In
the classification Of the de-uniOn
orator every employer is a capitalist
Frequently the employer is poorer
than his better paid mechanics. While
it is true that he handles more money
in one way or another than the wage
Garner often sees, he is frequently lit
tie more than an agent of collection
and disbursement. and his debts are
pushed ahead Of him like the stone up
the hill. Fortunate is he if in the most
favorable circumstances he is able to
reach the summit, or even a safe rest
ing place In about 80 per cent of the
instances of Individual and corporate
effort to establish profitable industries
the experience of Sisyphus is repeated,
and the stone which has been Iabori-
ously advanced escapes and rolls to the
bottom, whittier those responsible for
it must follow and begin all over again.
The employer who depends upon his
ability to secure continuing accOmOda-
tons at his bank, who scrapes the till
every Saturday night to get together
the amount which his payroll calls for,
and who must watch out ahead for the
maturity Of his formidable bills pay
able while showing spirit of accom-
noGation as to his bills receivable, is
the antithesis of the capitalist He
may appear to his WOrkmen very
"roesus, and in the discussion of their
relations to him he may be a typical
capitalist, whereas. as a matter of fact
ne is a struggling beginner at the foot
of fortunes ladder, torn with ankle
ties daily and able to hold his position
only because he has credit which it is
believed he will protect if he can. The
real capitalist is more often the work
| ingman of good habits sand frugal
tastes, who owns his little home and
| has some money saved against old
age or possible Interpretation by sick
| ness or accident, who owes no man any
| thing, and can draw interest from time
| to time or let it remain to swell his
savings. On such foundations the
greater proportion Of the substantial
fortunes Of the day were built.

AN ARTISTIC TRIUMPH.
Two Marvellous Reproductions of Famous
Paintings by Berlin LItho-
Rraphers

One of our advertisers, the Calu-
met Baking Powder company, of Chi
cage, is distributing free to its pat
rons some remarkable examples of
the perfection which the lithograph-
er's art has attained. Several years
ago this company purchased two cele-
brated paintings and sent them
abroad. where photography is in a
much higher state of development
than in this country, for reproduction.
The idea which they had in mind was
that it was possible, if sufficiently
skillful artists could be found. to
produce upon paper every line, every
color, every delicate touch and shade
which the artist who painted the or
iginal pictures had exhibited upon
canvas. In this way they have been
phenomenally' successful, for when
framed under glass, even a connois-
seur would promptly pronounce them
paintings from the easel of a great
master.
The subject of, one of these pictures
is landscape, an autumnal scene.
where the fidelity with which nature
is produced is an evidence of the ar
lists genius and his appreciation of
the truth of the old maxim that ma
ture is the artists standard and truth
his chief end
The other is half-length, draped
figure of beautiful young girl where
the artist has not merely produced
those features of what must have
been a marvellous model, but has in
cluded minutae which would escape
the generality, giving an idealization
of astounding perfection.
The pictures are of uniform size,
% inches by 30 inches, making two
magnificent companion pieces.
Either of the above pictures will
be forwarded to all persons sending
their name and address, together with
two. of the coupons found in one
pound cans of Calumet Baking Pow
der, and - 2-cent stamps, to the Calu-
met Baking Powder company, Chi
cagO.

how he recovered. Other illustra-
