IDEAS.

Let us learn 10 be content with
what we have. Let us get rid Of our
false estimates, set up all the higher
ideals: aquiet home, vines Of our own
planting, a few books full of inspir-
alton of genius, few friends
worthy Of being loved and able to
love in return, a hundred innocent
pleasures that bring no pain or re-
morse, a devotion 10 the right that
will never swerve, a simple religion
empty Of all bigotry, full of trust
and hope and love, and to such a
philosophy this world will give up
all the empty joy it has. David

II is doubtless well known TO our
readers that the Congo Free State in
Africa was organized for the purpose
of allowing free native state to be
built up in the dark continent, if that
were possible. The care OF this was
given TO the Belgians, and to King
Leopold in particular. So much
criticism was made of the Belgian
administration that, two years ago,
King Leopold, in self defense, APP
pointed commission to report on
his administration of the great trust.
They have reported, and although
the commission was made up of those
whom the King himself appointed,
the report is of such a character as
to make it imperative that the nations
that chose Leopold as trustee of the
State shonld call him to account.

AT the meeting OF the United Mine
Workers OF America at indianapolis
il was decided that all members of
the order should 60 out on a strike
on April l. The strike was ordered
because Of the refusal of the oper-
ators TO grant an increase of pay and
some other demands. The feeling
was so high that Patrick Dolan, the
President Of District No. 5, which is
the district around Pittsburg, was
asked to resign by the delegates Of
that district for voting against the
strike. He justified himself by say
ing that, on looking the field over
and the present condition, he thought
the miners would be doing well il
they could keep the present wage
scale. Unless some agency inter
venes $4,000 men will on the FIRST
of April next 60 out and so practic.
