Old Prophecy in Regard
to the United States
by HENRI FREDERIC AsIIEI.
(Emirent Swiss writcr)

The Americans are on the road TO
revolutionize these ideals by the I'm.
PRODUCTION of the democratic princi-
Iple of the equality OF individuals I'm
general equality OF functions. In
this they are seeking to realize a
higher social ideal. but the results
will be disappointing If not disas-
trous. For when this principle of
equality has been carried to its logi-
cal conclusion, and there is nothing
left but multitude of equal indi-
yiduals-neither young nor old,
neither men nor women, neither ben
Gifted nor benefactors-all social diff
terence and distinction will turn up
on money. The whole hierarchy
will rest upon wealth; and as this
wealth must. through the operation
of individualism, necessarily be very
unequally distributed, the inevitable
result of this passion for equality
will be, not what II is seeking, but
the most hideous and most inhumai
of inequalities. What a RESULT Plu-
tolatry-the worship of wealth-the
madness of gold To 1t will then be
confided the task of correcting false
principles and their followers, and
of shaping the destinies OF a people.
But such a regime cannot be per.
manent. Since plutocracy always
rests upon inequality it is necessarily
at war with the principle of equality
and one or the other must give way
In this struggle it is easy to read tho
fate of plutocracy. The wealthy few
who constitute a plutocracy can exist
only through the suffrance and sup
port of the impecunious many, and
that support will be given only so
long as it fails to comprehend its
burdens When ii becomes fully
cognizant OF the inequalities by
which it is buTdened, it will with.
draw and leave the principle OF
equality to again assert it's sway by
tearing down and clearing away the
oppressive social fabric of inequal.
ity which has been erected by un.
bridled individualism while falsely
flying the flag of individual equality.
The ideal equality will then be
sought in the opposite direction by
circumscribing the activities OF the
individual in an iron framework of
social organization and repression.
Thus will be witnessed the strange
and self-contradictory phenomo
of Anglo-Saxon individualism
oping into and producing Lat
cialism. From the journal
time" published in 1867.

Shot Needles Into Pigs.

Shooting darnlng needles with a
bow and arrow into the backs OF pigs
was the amusement created by thir-
teen-year-old relative of Clayton
Morse, who is visiting at the home OF
Mr.. Morse, near here.
The boy was convulsed with laugh
ter at the antics of a pig into which
he had just driven a sharp piece of
Steel when Mr.. Morse discovered him.
After the rascal had been subjected
to the fortunes of a thrashing, Mr..
Morse, with knife. cut out the mis-
siles from the flesh of the hogs.
Then the visiting genius is said to
have induced one of the Morse BOYS
to run away. They left in the morn

came to his cabin carrying Pawnce

What became of the child is told by
Mr. Henry Imam and Col. William

The Sioux was anxious TO trade his
capture, and Whipsaw, who was as
tender-hearted as he was rough-look-

She Objected to Slang.

The teacher of a school near Prov
idence received the following inter-
esting instructions from a certain
fond mother. This lady was most re-
markable for the old school gentility
she profossed to have. She had Just
moved into the village from the city.
and was most solicitous that the well
bred manners of her little daughter
Muriel should not be contaminated
by contact with the country children.
Always see that she has your best

careful that she associates with no
