Profitable Investment.

In 1875 it was communicated to the
British government that the Khedive
Ismail Pasha, being in desperate need
of money, was willing to sell his 1885,
COZ shares of stock in the Suez Canal
company at fair price. Disraeli was
then premier and he didn't hesitate a
minute England paid $20.0O0,000 for
the khedive's holdings, or at the rate
of s113.60 per share. Since then the
dividends on its purchase have ag-
gregated s24.000.000 and to-day the
shares are selling at $500 each. This
shows a profit on the transaction Of

The comfort for the visitor to an

at ST. Louis.
One of the features that cannot
fail to appeal to the visitor is the

2,257 rooms covering an area of
400 bp goo feet, wholly within the
Worlds Fair grounds.
Probably no hotel ever built
commands view so diversified OF

that surround the mammoth struc-

before one. Many of the state
buildings, with their gaint ana
magnificent structures, present
their most attractive facades. Some
Of the forgeign buildings may be
seen, and the forest of towers and
turrels, domes and minarets, rising
above the great exhibit palaces
that may be seen through the forest
of real trees that surrounds the
hostelry
A leisurely walk Of FIVE minutes
will land one on the main terrace
in front of the Festival Hall, the
center Of the main picture" of the
Exposition. the grandest spectacle
ever produced by man. Another
five minntes walk and the visitor
may find himself on The Pike, a
street of amusement, a full mile
long, with the shows of all nations
in gay and enticing array.
In the ten minutes walk many
Of the main exhibit palaces have
been passed. These comprise the
largest and grandest collection OF
architural triumphs ever assembled
in any one place. Notwithstanding
its close proximity to these scenes
of gaiety and splendor, noise and
confusion, the Inside Inn offers a
delightful retreat. During the moo n
hour the visitor may retire for a
brief rest and resume his de-
lightful task of sightseeing refresh
ed and all the more able to appre-
ciate and enjoy the Worlds Fair
wonders.
The rates at this hotel are no

LABoR.s vIcToRIEs.


Napoleon said that an invasion
of armies could be resisted but an
invasion OF ideas could not befe-
sisted.
OF course, the great captain did
not mean that an invasion Of any
old kind Of ideas can not be resisted
he meant ideas based on truth and
justice: ideas that come from tbs
brain OF men who gather facts and
think clearly; ideas backed by rea-
son.
The truth Of Napoleon's dictum
is being recognized more and more
by the great leaders who are fight
ing the battles Of labor. Men OF
broad notions and a high sense OF
justice, like John Mitchell, are
winning victories for labor BY the
ideas which they advance. They
are men who see both sides Of the
questions with which they deal and
are too wise TO attempt TO advance
their cause save by the sensible
course which reason demands.
Labor has enemies; enemies
which she sees and recognizes, aud
enemies which she does not see and
are therefore all the more danger
Gus
The unseen foes are within the
ranks Of labor itself. They are
men. who BY the possession OF Ger
tain powers Of leadership, lead the
multitude to ill-considered action
Without the far-secing abilities Of
real leaders, with a limited grasp
Of the great problems with which
they are graphing, they assume
positions that cannot be sustained
BY sound reasoning, and thereby
lay their forces open TO attack
from without aud when the attack
comes their cause suffers.
Not only is their cause thus
weakened by the advantage gwen
their opponents, but more than
this, the impartial observer, seeing
the effects Of incompetent leader
ship. passes sentence upon the
cause, and public sentiment, with
out which the success Of any move
ment is insecure, is thrown into the
balance against labor, when ii
should be the strongest support Of
it.
When labor awakes to the neces-
sitv of throwing overheard incom-
petenl leaders and recognizes the
fact that its only road to victory is
through the sensible and manly
course pursued byits best advocates;
when it recognizes that its cause IS
Just enough to win upon its merits
alone; when it puts common sense
and plain judgment behind all its
demands, it can fight with the pros
pect of winning victories which
will REBOUND TO its gain and honor
