AMALGAMATEn,,

With this as caption one Thos. w.
Lawson is writing some fearful things
Of the conduct of some men who get Ia
be multi-milli0naires In the prOsecu-
ton Of their nefsriOus schemes, he es.
Inmates that "billiOns Of dollars have
been taken from millions Of our peo-
pie" and in the "amalgamated"
offices alone thirty suicides have fol-
lowed, twenty reputable citizens were
made prison %cOnvlcts, while the few
who won over the woes Of others, "as
husbands, fathers, brothers, ons
friends they were ideal, clearly Of body
and Of mind, with heads filled with SEN
timent and hearts filled with sympa-
thy, their personal lives like their homes
and their gardens filled only with the
bright things Of this world, the sing
ing, humming, sweet smelling things
which so strongly speak to us of the
other world we are yet to know"
He adds hat the money used in the
fierce struggle came from the peoples
savings in the banks, trust and insu-
rance companies, and the public
funds" what fools we mortals be-"
Our savings, u scourge, our accumu-
lation's our agony! And is this condi-
ton to continue Elect Roosevelt.

THE

We hear much nowadays OF th'
"relics OF barbarlsm, % but In the days
TO come Others will be told Of the rel
les" OF the 10Th century, and promi
nent among them will be classed the
banquet. or all modern-day terrors If
is ordinarily most terrible.
Bodies Of men 90 on a sightseeing
and visiting tours, they are welcomed
by other bodies, "shown the sights
for days and nights, and after exhaus-
ton has become pronounced and the
appetites satisfied il not %nauseated
then m the banquet. Hours Of
eating. drinking, smoking, and, most
generally, dreary, modifying and
nerye-trying speech making. AT the
close the physical and mental parts are
simply worn to a ~frazzle, and the men
tarts home worried in body and mind,
and feeling in their very souls that
they are unworthy to enter their own
home circles. And this is what is false
ly denominsted a "gOOd time" Never
was misnomer mere clearly written.
We have been moved to write the
above because Of recent experience in
II Of our larger cities, where a visiting
military organization had been enter
tanned for a number Of days and nights,
the whole concluding with a monster
banquet. During the day and the
days the brethren had been literally
stuffed and drenched, and they went
into that banqueting room simply
lOathing the sight Of food and signing
for a quiet place in which TO rest.
But there they had to sit until the wee
small hours Of another morning, and
were only enabled to do so by adding
fuel to the flame which was already
consuming aud wasting.
Is it not possible that intelligent, ra-
tionsl, and immortal beings can find a
way Of being social without at the same
time becoming sots? Can we not learn
to entertain our friends and return
them to their respective homes as
clean and q sober al when they left
them2 Can we not be civil without
being cruel? Shall we so live that
barbarisns may justly boast Of being
better than we?
Let somebody suggest a substitute
for the banquet, which has degenerated
into i~nexcusable wa~stefulness if not
positive wickedness.
Let this "relic" be relegated to the
rear.

GLORY TO con IN THE HIGHEST"

When in 1854 the late Cyrus W.
Field accomplished the well nigh su-
perhuman task Of uniting the Cont
nent by wire, his first impulse aud in
spiration was not 10 glorify man but
the God who made man IN his own
image. and so the first thrill felt 10y
those wires, the first message carried
by that cable across the seas was an in
scription of praise TO the God OF heaven
ana ofearth, Of land and Of sea. "Glory
TO God i'm the highest. And yet we
sometimes hear it said that none but
weaklings worship God. that busy
men can't afford To be religious. Per-
ish such thought. Call over the roll
of earth's worthless and a large majority
are Of those who fear God aud keep
his commandments
What marvellous growth has been
witnessed, too, in this particular branch
Of human endeavor during the past
fifty years. Instead Of the n link
between two nations all the nations
of earth have been brought in closest
touch the one with the other, and there
is no event Of public moment 10 mat
ter where its birth place, that has not
become the common property Of all
mankind, and then too, in time so
brief that space itself seems to have
been obliterated.
The original cost for the cablegram
per word vas five dollars, while now
it is only 25 cents, and no"twithstand-
ing this wonderful reduction in the
price, and the many millions invested
in the general business, here comes

boasts that the wireless system will de-
stroy all other modes Of word or
thought-travel between man and man
and nation and nation.
