1t is strange how some men use
their best endeavors to cast a shad-
ow of gloom around those whom
they come in contact with. This
was very noticeable on Thanks
giving Day. Instead of giving
expression to cheering words,
some of the boys, thoughtlessly
and quite unconscious of the
wound they we're inficting, spread
encouragement wherever they
went. It is in better taste to tell
a man that he is looking well in
stead of telling him that he will
soon be gray and toothless, that
his skin is becoming cracked and
wrinkled, and that he will not live
much longer. Altho these words
are often said in a testing way,
they always leave a bad impress
sion. A man knows that he is
growing old, but he does not like
to be continually reminded of it
by his friends. It is always best
to cheer instead of discourage.
You might be accused of excessive
fattery, still, this is easier to for
give than would be the case if you
had knocked your friends spirits
down to the zero point.

is still much to live for; a man is,
alone, the architect of his own
career, and aside from the infiu-
ence of environment, he is largely
accountable for the success or
failure of his life.
Tact is most valuable virtue
for one to possess; the tactful man
leads the multitudes. We lovetb
woman whose speech is as velvety
as the rose, who sees a boys dirty
face, but compliments his bright
eyes; who sees your threadbare
coat but praises your habits. and
speech; she who sees all our faults,
but whose rose-coated tongue is
quick to praise and slow to criticise.
Then there is the man whose smile
lights up our darkest day, whose
voice is full Of music, whose hand
shake is a benediction; in his pres
ence all our troubles roll away as
the mists before a Biscay gale.
There is plenty of gloom and
trouble all about us; do not try to
increase it. Too many are dying
ahead of time.
Japan possesses pretty legend
of two sword-smiths. Masamune,
the teacher, tempered his swords to
the refrain, ''Peace on earth! Peace
on eartn!' and his swords brought
success and contentment to their
bearers, but when his pupil,
Muvamasa, tempered his blades he
sang, Trouble in the world!
Trouble in the worldv' Those
who carried his blades were always
in quarrels and trouble. Since
Japan whipped Russia so signally
she has been strutting around with
chip on her shoulder, evidently
looking for trouble. Is she carry
ing one of Muvamasa's blades? IF
so the chances are good that the
chip will one day be knocked off
and little Japan will come in for
good trouncing.
The world swings from one ex-
treme to the other, pendulum like.
1t is edifying and instructive to
watch these oscillations, not only
in the political world, but in the
worlds taste for literature, art and
the stage. Not so many years ago
even the most exclusive playhouses
of our great cities failed to draw q
house, unless the play bordered
somewhat on the salacious; there
must be low intrigue and an in-
jured wife or husband, or the
amusement-loving people yawned
and stayed at home. Some critics
and the true, far-sighted lovers of
legitimate stage cried out against
this lowering of the moral of the
theatre, but the manager with his
finger on the pulse of the box
Office resolutely closed his ears, and
the era of the muck rake remained
in vogue. Productions appealing
to the baser passions, even tho
they portray life as it is found
among the low and high, have no
place in the world of morals or
art, indeed, they have no place in
the world ofamusements. Athea-
tire is primarily place of amuse-
ment, place of education andart,
and any drama which pollutes the
mind and offends the instincts of
a real gentleman or lady, which /
does not amuse cleanly, uplift and
educate is, no matter what the box
Office says, complete failure. I
am glad to note that the reaction
has come, and that the demand is

 TRAVElS INCOG

Tom O'Brien, of Dawson, usually Thomas W. O'Brien, Esq, since his re- cent trip to Paris-has adopted the ways of royalty and other very high muck-a-mucks. He passed through Skagwsy the other day incog, reaching Whitehorse before he was very exten- sively recognized. He came north on the Cottage City, but his name appeared not on the first-clsss passenger list. Tom O'Brien is nothing if not always first-class, so he was evidently using a name that does not belong to him with which to protect his busy self from vulgar euriousity.
 Mr, O'Brien says he has secured all the money necessary to complete 30 miles of his Rlondike Mines railway this year and that next year 10 will be continued to Stewart river on the Yukon.

IS AN OUTRAGE

NEW YORK, June 15.-President
Clowry of the Western Union, says
''the action of the San Francisco
special committee is an outrage.
Our company did more to assist San
Francisco than any other company
or organization in the United
States. At the start we threw
open our wires for tGse use Of the
relief committee free of charge.
We handled and still handle free
messages sent to San FrJncisco in
reference to relief work"
He declared that at the time of
the disaster it was announced that
no messages would be accepted ex.
cept subject to delay. He said all
the wires are down for SO miles
around San Francisco. A small
proportion of messages were re-
ceived at points near San Francis

THE BOOM
FOR BRYAN

I for the most radical proposition.
Just what would happen if Hearst
or some equally radical man were
nominated by the Democrats Is not
known.
Bryan's popularity with the
masses is relied upon to save the
situation. Although a radical--or
so regarded in 1896, when he was
denounced as an anarchist and
firebrand-Bryan is now regarded
as sufficiently conservative. AS Mr..

President Roosevelt is RESPONSE
BILE for the growing popularity of
radical opinions and candidates.
When he entered the White House
he quietly and unofficially severed
his connections with the Repub-
lican party, it's leaders and its plat
form. His administration has been
an effort to carry out the princi-
pies which were declared In the
Democratic platform of 1896-with
the one exception of free silver.
The main feature of the Demo
cratic platforms Of 1896 and 1900
was opposition to trusts and vested
monopoly. If Roosevelt had been
elected on that platform he could
not nave given the country a more
consistent antitrust administra-
ton.
