A GLIMPSE AT TIE PAST.

The Seattle Star looks back over
old times and says:
Soon there will be many sermons
and lectures to graduates on the APP
plication of education to the practi-
calities of life. Just a homely word
in advance to the boys:
When you go back from college to
your home don't consider that your
only relation to your father is to get
as much money as the governor will
stand for Look at his gray hair, his
uncertain STEP his dim eyes, and re-
member in whose love and service he
has grown old.
"You can never pay him the debt
you owe, but you can at least ac.
knowledge it before 1t is too late. In
no way can you better show your
manhood, boy. than by proceeding to
pay in part the debt you owe him
and to her-whose toll and devotion
and sacrifice have been the furnace
fires that have made a man of you"

A GRAFT THAT HAS NOT FAILED

A. cablegram from Berlin in yester-
days Constitution announced that
John Alexander Dowie. the self-con-
fessed reincarnation OF the prophet,
Elijah, has arrivel there from Switz-
erland and has taken rooms lately
vacated by the Vanderbilts at a cost
of $40 a day.
The princely tastes of the Overseer
OF Zion are by this time familiar to
the reading public. He does not al
low his spirituality to conflict with his
eplcurean proclivities in the least, and
he has conducted his theorcratic cor
poIation on such modern lines of pro
motion that he is apuent enough to
snuggle feshpols. The prophet of
imposing tleshly girth left the scene
of his labors several moons ago, fol.
lowing his wife, unklssed son and the
family strong box abroad, on business
and pleasure bent, In Australia he
had the time of his life indulging
in athletic exercise, ana it does not
appear that his unsplritual avolrdu-
polse was material handicap to his
establishing the evangelical sprlnting
record OF the century.
While Elijah the second has been
picking his teeth at the palace hostel
ries of two continents and clipping
Zion City coupons between sprnts,
the faithful he left behind him in the
model industrial community near
Chicago have been reported to be on
half rations AMI holding the financial
bag But 1t does not appear that
their faith in their oyerseer prophet,
has wavered for a moment, as Elijah
is thoughtful enough to send them
his peace at blessed intervals.
All OF which inevitably recalls the
aphorism Of famous overseer OF an.
other kind OF circus, to-wit, that 'peo-
pie like to be humbugged," And the
fact is obvious and painful that a
whole lot of people are partial to mum

We might understand how an as.
cetic to all outward appearances
burning with holy zeal, could inspire
a following, for since the day of the

A WORD FOR YOUNG BRIDES.

There is much cant and hypocrisy
about some of the protests at girls
marrying too young.
More girls wait until they are too
old, than marry too young, in this
day and age of the world
If girl is going into a professional
career, or into any other business
than becoming the head and center of
a family, age cuts no ice.
But if she expects to become a wife
for the plain purpose of raising a
family of children, the sooner she
gets about it the better
This is plain language but it is
called out by this from the Albany
Democrat
Mothers should not be in too much
Of a hurry 10 marry off their fifteen
year old daughters. Five years on
top Of that is pretty young.
What is sweeter than a young bride,
not yet hardened by the sophisteries
of society. tender and trusting, know
ing only love for her husband.
The unselfsh love and devotion
shed by such a madonna mother upon
her children, radiant with innocence
and purity, is priceless benefactlon.
Girls married at 16, II, or 1S make
that kind of wives and mothers more
often than the more highly developed
and attractive women in the twenties.
This is not socially orthodox but it
is the truth.

The Flower OF Liberty,

What flower is this that greets the
morn,
Its hues from heaven so freshly born?
With burning star and flaming band
1t kndles all the sunset land.
Oh, tell us what its name may be!
Is this the flower of liberty?
1t is the banner of the free,
The starry flower of Liberty!
In savage natures far above.
Its tender seed our fathers sowed.
The storm winds rocked its swelling
bud
It's opening leaves were streaked with
blood,
Till, 10, earths tyrants shook to see
The full blown flower of Liberty!
Then hail the banner of the free,
The starry flower of Liberty!
Behold its streaming rays unite,
One minghng food of braided
light
The red that fires the southern rose,
With spotless white from northern
SHOWS
The sister stars of Liberty!
Then hail the banner of the free
The starry flower of Liberty!

Betty Ross.

A quiet house, a quiet street,
A needle and thread,
A scissors and a square of blue,
Some strips of white and red.
And slender hands that deftly stitched
The shining stars across
Twas thus the flag of Liberty
Was made by Betty Ross
Though Father Time has worn TO rags
The ermine robes of kings
And left the guns of war to rust
Among forgotten things,
Though crowns and scepters at his
touch
Have turned TO dross and dust,
Yet not broken stitch has marred
The work OF Betty Ross,
In stately hall and lowly home
This day its colOrs wave,
The shelter OF the worlds oppressed,
The beacon OF the brave
Let glory ON the nations shield
Among the stars emboss
The thread, the needle and the name
And fame OF Betsy Ross.

FIRST BRICK BLOCK.
\ Texas Man Of Enterprise md
Means Starts the Trend of
Building Southward.

1t remained for John McDermott of
Texas. who already has done one
mans share toward building up Bes-
semer to give the building process
a boost toward the south.
He has decided upon plans and will
next week begin the erection OF a
brick block on Evans avenue in the
1900 block which is just south of
Northern.
The block will be 3o-foot front
with depth OF 81 feet and at pres
ent one story high. The walls will
be calculated for the accommodation
of the second story whenever he de-
sires to put it on. The building will
be divided into two rooms.
Although there are several small
business buildings on the east side
of the street they are mostly of cor
rugated iron, temporary affairs which
will be moved out in little while
and substantial brick ones to take
their place.
This locality is within the paving
area, and it also being on the street
car line, is considered capital busi-
ness location and very little inferior
to Northern avenue.
Mr. McDermott is the kind of new
people that is helping to build up this
noted section of the city.

Use Printed Envelopes

Every person whether engaged in
business or not, should have his name
and address printed on the envelopes
he uses, as requested by the postofice
department. This would often do
away with much vexatious delay and
worry, and in the case of a letter
being mailed without postage the
sender would be notified at once in
stead Of the letter being forwarded
to the dead letter office there to be
opened and the name of the writer
learned. A great deal of time and

LETTERS AND OPINIONS
One View of Jap Labor.

According to the opinion OF an old
and intelligently observing employe
of the Minnequa works there is not
SO much danger OF total wiping out
of the foreign class of labor by the
advent of the Japanese as was prog
nosticated when the latter race made
its advent in the mill. In fact there
is no danger from present indications,
or from the experience SO far with
Japs, that the big plant will be over
whelmed with the yellow peril"
1t is safe to estimate that at the
present time there are not more than
thirty Japs employed at the works.
There are several in and about the
merchant mill and the pipe foundry,
but strange to say not half dozen
are working in the yards, the depart
ment they were supposed to fill. To
tell the truth the Japs don't take to
the heavy work of the yards. They
seem to be looking for employment
where they can be manipulating me-
chanics, tools or machinery and there
are few openings for them at the steel
works for them in that class of work.
Besides the Japs are very independ-
ent and suit their own pleasure as re-
CARDS working steady. Ii they nave
hard days work three times week,
they lay off the remainder of the sew
en-, whereas the Austrians, Italians,
creeks and other nationalities SHOW
up" regularly day after day, barring
their holidays, no matter how hard
the work, but to tell the truth the
Japs as rule can't be depended on to
"show up" when most needed. The
two Japanese who secured an agree
ment from the company to furnish
all the Japs required, it is understood
tried to get it fixed so that the man
agement of the Minnequa works
would agree to hire nothing but Jap
labor but they failed to secure such
binding bargain, and it's a good thing
for the company that they did. Judg-
ing from the irregular manner in
which the little yellow men work.
It's a notorious fact that the yard
foremen dislike to work Japs. They
prefer the more reliable Austrians,
Italians, Greeks, etc, that make up
good gang, and can be relied upon
to SHOW up" regularly every morn
