He Saved the Baby

Logan Huffman of Lewistown, ILL.,,
writes: About the middle of March,
1901, my little girl three years old was
suffering from bad cold. One day
she grew worse and severe attack of
Group followed. Various remedies were
used but failed to relieve her, and be
leve she would have died had l not
been able TO secure bottle Of Harris,
Honey and Horehound few doses Of
that medicine saved her life. 1t is a
most wonderful remedy for Group The
first symptom of Group is hoarseness
which is soon followed by singular
rough cough, easily recognized by any
one who has ever heardit. The time to
act is when the child first becomes
hoarse and if Harris Honey and HOre
hound is freely given, cure is certain.
There is no danger in giving large doses
of this medicine, as it contains nothing
injurious. Sold by Henry Hinrichs

on this most important subject. He
says: No one can read the report Of

KING TRIED TO HIDE DEED.
Gave Money for the Salvation Army
and Refused to Give Donors
Name.

A good story of King Edwards in
terest in the Salvation Army is told
by Walsh Dawson, a supporter of the
army's social work, reports the Lon
don Social Gazette.
Two years ago Mr.. Dawson, who had
interested himself in obtaining dona-
tions for social work, was on his way
one afternoon to call on a certain be-
nevolent peer, when he lost his way
in the thick fog. Suddenly he ran
against a man near buckingham pal
ace Apologizing, he asked the stran-
ger if he could direct him to the house
he was looking for. The reply was:
"Certainly. / am going there my
self, I'll show you the house."
"We chatted away merrily," Mr..
Dawson continues. II told him all
about my work and the labors Of the
Salvation Army. He seemed deeply
interested and when I reached the
house he said: 1T is dreadful to think
that so much suffering exists in this
city. I want you to accept little gift
for the poor, suffering ones and he
placed in my hand ten sovereigns.
81 was astonished and asked the
unknown donor what name 1 should
put down in the book. He replied, hur-
riedly: No name at all, please. Sim
ply anonymous Suddenly saw his
face distinctly for the first time; it
was the prince of Wales, now the
king"

WHALING IN THE ARCTIC.
Fhe skipper ana His Gun and the
Precautions In Preparing
for Shot.

The gun, a solid, cumbrous affair OF
about three-inch caliber, is swung
around SO that the muzzle points in
board, and then the chamber is swabbed
out by the skipper himself, who
plainly regards every step Of this pre-
Iiminary work as Of the greatest i'm
portance. The number of times that
this man has missed his whale is SO
small that he takes pride In his rec
ord; and, in addition to his reputation,
there is the value Of the whale, says
writer in Harper's. A good-sized
whale means $1,000 or SO to himself,
who, besides being skipper and har-
pooner, is also owner Of the ship and
of the trying-out plant ashore. So,
after inspecting the harpoon and wad-
ling brought from below, he swabs
out the gun a second time, and then
takes a pound Of quick-burning pow
Ter, in a little white cotton bag, and
rams it home. A big fistful of rope
ends is stuffed in after the pow
er, and following the rope-ends a
thick rubber disk; after that another
batch of rope-ends.
Then ensues a most critical examina-
ton OF the bomb lance, heavy piece

THE PRIMARY BILL

There is prevalent belief that the
senate will block the La Toilette pr
mary election bill passed by the as
sembly to such an extent that no bli
of the character will be enacted into
law. The Madison Journal, in double
loaded editorial which appeared IN the
paper last Friday makes an impassloned
plea TO the senate to pass some Dill
dealing with primary elections, II IL De
but q semblance of the assembly bill
The Journal heretofore, has been a
stout supporter Of Gov La Toilette ana
lend its aid toward his election on the
platform he constructed While II
would like to see the primary scheme
adopted, yet it will not go as far az the
governor, believing t. too radical step 10
be both inopportune and unwise. II
see nts, however, the possible danger OF
the senate simply blocking a primary
bill thus showing the Republican party
in the eyes Of the electors as the party
of unfulflled pledges.
1t is evident from the tone OF the
editorial that the Madison Journal has
lost faith in Gov La Toilette, either as
a constructive statesman or IA leader OF
men. 1t thinks he has pursued such d
domineering attitude that the men OF
his own political faith have no nse for
him and wish to blast his political
future by policy Of obstruction.
1t is possible that the senate may be
induced to pass some kind of primary
election bill but that any general law
will be in force governing the noml'
nation of candidates directly from the
people seems to be out OF the question.
The obstructive policy Of the Stalwart
Republicans may adversely affect the
passage Of the proposed taxation
measures, and if this be the case this
legislature will be AZ barren of good
results as was the one two years ago.
Mr.. La Toilette seems to have the
genius Of making strong enemies, men
who have influence. His policy is the
rule or ruin one, and it looks very much
like AZ if the latter phase will be the
lot Of the governor and the party he
represents.

corporations and compel a capitalization
commensurate with the actual invest
ment, and no more So We take it that
such an antitrust bill as that reported
to the United States senate from the
Judiciary committee by Mr.. Hoar OF
Massachusetts would meet the require
ments Of the situation as seen by Judge
Grosscup. and bring about direct pop
ular interest in industry and It's profits
sufficient to check the drift to Socialism.
This would be true if it were also true
that the ownership of wealth or capital
still abides with the masses Of the people
to the extent assumed. But is that the
fact? May it not be that Capitalization
of ownership has gone along with CEN
tralization of control And must that
not be the case if, as is stated the great
| profits of the new organization OF IN
dustry are pouring pretty exclusively
into the pockets Of those in control !
Suppose that ownership of capital was
widely distributed at the start of the
trust movement; how long, then, accord
ing TO Judge Grosscups own argument.
must it be before ownership of the en-
ployed wealth of the country has passed
largely into the few hands that have
control and reap all the profits Not
very long, evidently; say about as long
M it is likely to take the country to come
to some active conclusion in the matter.
But we cannot confidently assume
that the deposits of savings banks, trust
companies and other institutions belong
largely to the working classes, who are
to determine whether the nation shall
remain Republican or Individualistic, or
shall become Socialistic. SO far rs can
be observed, these classes as rule are
devoting practically all of their earnings
to current consumption. Again, no
state imposes such close limitations upon
individual deposits in its savings banks
as does Massachusetts, this in order to
make those banks serve the poorer in
stead of the richer classes And yet we
do not know but that very large frac'
ton of the savings deposits of Massachu-
setts belong to just the class that the
banks were not intended for. We do
know that many rich men use these
banks, distributing among several a
sum which could not be taken by one.
We do know further that large a
mount of the aggregate deposits belongs
to the account of children of the wealthy
And if savings deposits in Massachu-
sets belong in considerable part to the
class which is not supposed to share in
them, how much more must this be true
Of other states, Connecticut, for exam
pie, where no limit is put upon individ-
ual accounts in savings banks, and they
often run up into the tens of thousands
of dollars
Whether therefore, this question
of the trusts and of democracy in in
The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1903-03-05

dustry, can be settled as Judge Gross
cup thinks it can, depends upon wheth-
or his assumption as to the ownership
of bank deposit is true or not. There
Is some doubt about that. There is
some question whether we are to dis
pose of the menace of Socialism so
easily But there can be no doubt Of
the necessity of doing what we can to
put the owners OF trust capital into
more direct control of the trusts; and
the way is pointed out by the Chicago
jurist."
