Of mere money
There are already many signs In
the sky thar the men OF wealth rea'
lize that there arc other things In
the world that are worth more than
money. When a millionaire. Stokes,
marries a settlement worker and de-
N,tes his life 10 the betterment OF the

tributing his wealth wisely: when a
strenuous American president

the evidences are good that we as 4
people are %ebglnning TO realize that
We are getting far from our original
ideals,
And especially are We coming 10
the point where We insist that laws
must not be set at naught. and the
rights OF the individual overrldden in
order that n man may become rich.
or than his %neighbor. The popular
impression that no man can make a
million and make II honestly Is very
far from n correct one More OF M
%millionaires are honest than we are
willing to admit. They have risen ~
means OF the system on which all the
business Of the country has been con
Quoted. They have worked on the
same principle upon which our poor.
est merchant has worked. In the
case Of the poor, oftimes, and likewise
in the IA OF the rich, there has Of
ten been violation OF law, oppression
and downright dishonesty. but even
in this commercial age and in the &C.
emulation OF many millions honesty
has been the best policy.
But the system is radically wrong
and American people are beginning
10 condemn it. Some day. 1t may be
in the far future. but signs indicate
that the time Is not very far distant,
when we will apply more nearly the
teaching Of the golden rule to our husi
ness system. Our competitive system
has very nearly reached It's legitimate
result which is to make q nation OF
paupers and millionaires. 1t may not
be so long before the idea Of co-opera
ton takes Its place. 1t may not be sc
long before the factory workman he's
a share In the profits, before the dis
~tribution Of the profits OF all enter
prlses and business makes grear
accumulations of wealth impossible.
Not until then shall. we be ablt
~measurably to substitute for our pres
ent business motto of every man To-
himself the ideal principle that eael
man must consider the other as him
self.

GOOD IDEA.

The United States continues to i'm
port something like 250,000, 900 pounds
of secured wool annually and New
Mexico will have to multiply the num-
Der of its sheep and their wool pro
duct by forty before it will be in posi-
ton TO supply the shortage which
must be at present supplied by impor-
tation. II a rational method of feed
ing is adopted and the destruction of
the range by sheep owners who live
only for today are checked, there is
very good ground for the belief that
sooner or later New Mexico can assist
materially toward supplying at least
the home markets with sufficient of
the home product to make importa4
ton of such grades of wool as can bd
raised here unnecessary.-New Mexi-
can.
