The slight advance in grains failed

Let us hope that he intended to
convey the idea that it was owing to
this rabid reformist that he collected
his contributions to the Philadelphia
Saturday Evening Post into one vol

that since the public has become so
embittered by hostile and mistaken
agitators, he found himself al
though unwilling, forced to defend
the business into which his father
had put the best thought and energy
of a long, active life. He stated he
found it difficult to be silent under
attacks which were untrue and malie-
iously bitter, as far as his own in
dividual enterprise was concerned,
and the Armonr house, he declares
TO be the special point of attack. Mr.
Armour says that visitors We're never

In "The City" Arthur Epson has

Abgarur, King of Odessa sent Anan-
las to Jerusalem to bid Jesus come
and heal him of disease. Ananias
returns with word OF the refusal and
the news of the crucifiction. The
action occupies one day and the scene
is laid in the garden of the perfect
city OF Odessa. MrUpson is neither
an excellent dramatis writer nor does
he excel as a poet. but in combining
his talent in both directions, he has
given us a work with a vast amount
of literary distinction and greatly

Elzins, ". Va. June 21.-Before the
closing session of the West Virginia
Bankers association one feature was
an address by Senator EIkins, of this
state. The convention was brought TO
a close with a banquet at the home OF
Senator Hopkins. Senator Elkins was
well received by the financial men Of
his home state. He spoke on the in
come and Inheritance taxes and said
that the Twentieth century was get

interests of humanity.

Money a Loyal Friend.

Money a Loyal Friend.
Senator E.lkins discussed the practi-
cal side Of commercial life and espe-
cially the important role played by
bankers. In condemning usury he said
the price of money is regulated by sup
ply and demand, but that it is human
nature for one to try to get the most
possible for anything he has to market.
Money in a certain sense is concen-
trated power he said. I'm a mans
pocket it is a most loyal and unfailing
friend. The most lonesome person in
all the world is one walking the high
ways without a dollar. Money is an
order on the world for what the world
produces, and in all countries and
climes this order is always honored.
Burden We All Like to Bear.
"After a certain point wealth be-
comes a burden, robs its owner of ease
and repose: yet | have observed how
eager and willing people are to strug-
gle along through life with the burdens
never whistle. Poor men always do.
Bird songs are in the hearts of the poor
men. This is we'll In every condi-
ton of life there is compensation.
"Good Time Coming. Boys"
Senator Elkins declared that poverty
and want will be banished from the
world. He said: There is enough
wealth in the world now to prevent
poverty but we have not yet learned
how to distribute it. We understand
the ways of accumulation, but not of
distribution. Society and government
are constantly struggling with great
questions Society under free govern
ment has reached the point where it
can in the end get what it demands,
what is best for it, and protect itself
without force
Competition and IndividuaIism.
Competition and individualism go
hand in hand, said the senator, and up
to a certain point are wholesome ana
beneficial to commerce and business.
Inrestrained competition in the bust
ness world" he added throws society
back on the cruel law of the survival
OF the fittest. and in the end the strong
prevail and dominate. Competition and
individualism are the parents of pres
ent conditions of trusts, combinations
and colossal fortunes Theodore RooSe-
welt once said that he thought a COM
promise between individualism and so
cialism would be best. l replied that
apparently this might be a solution,
but how could society get rid of the
evils Of both while holding on to their
benefts?"
