NO COMPLAINT BY ENGLAND.
Alleged Attack on Hindoo Not Yet
Taken Up by Embassy.

The State Department has received no
representations from the British Embassy
regarding the HindOOs who are reported
to have been attacked. beaten, and driv-
en- out OF Bellingham. Wash.
In the event that these people have
suffered at the hands OF an American
mob, Il is probable that this government
will be liable for damages. as has been
the case where other foreigners have been
assailed. or they might sue IN the courts.
following the precedent set in the Japa-
nese case at San Francisco.

HOSTING DEVICES.
Machinery That Was Used In Building
the Pyramids.

htie y
Hosting machines were used in both
Assyria and Egypt 5000 or more years
ago. In order to hoist the great
stones of the pyramids some form of
derrick was employed. Probably the
first construction was that which is
now known to mechanics as the shear
legs This is made of two great tim
bers tied together in the form of a
capital A, the two ends resting on the
ground and rope being run over and
attached at vle top.
With one of these the pyramid build
ers could have raised large stones step
by step, which was doubtless their
method. We can imagine we see the
great A frame leaning over an incline
of perhaps fifty degrees with block
of stone tied on. Then a great crowd
of men get hold of the rope on the
opposite side, perhaps assisted by some
draft oxen. and all strain and pull until
the A frame stands erect and the stone
is swung up into the air, where it can
be pushed into the desired place
Such a contrivance could be used to
lift stones six or eight feet. which was
sufficient for the construction of the
first pyramid. Doubtless better hoist
ing devices were constructed as more
pyramids were bult-Circle Magazine.

from Peru. The camellin received its
name from a missionary named Ka-

flower from Japan to France. The
magnolia was named In honor of Mag

are descriptive, Lady's slipper resem-

THE FRIEND OF HONEST LABOR

The president s recent letter in JUS
tification Of his former statement as to
the undesi rability of such citizens as
Meyer and Haywood is an admirable
expression of the Rooseveltian spirit
and shows how impossible it is to
bluff the president wnen he knows
he is right. In answer to letter of
criticism from the Meyer Haywood
society of Chicago which is doubtless
made up of the most unreliable of the
labor unions, President Roosevelt,
among other things, says:
"Messrs. Meyer, Haywood and
Debs stand as representatives of those
men who have done as much to dis
credit the labor movement as the worst
speculative hnanciers or most un-
scrupulous employers of labor and de-
bauchers of legislatures have done to
discredit honest capitalists and fair
dealing business men.
They stand as the representatives
Of those who, by their public utter
ances and manifestos; by the utter
ances of the papers they control and
inspire. and by the words and deeds of
those associated with or subordinated
to them, habitually appear as guilty

shed and violence

THE ANNOUNCEMENT has been
made that the great mail order house
of Sears, Roebuck & Co. will per
manently close its grocery department,
and the reason for this action is not
hard to fathom. The national pure
food law prevents the sale of the mis-
erahle adulterations which they have
been palming off on the public. When
the national law goes into effect and
s., R & Co. are obliged to brand as
spurious the extract of hickory bark
which they have been selling as pure
maple syrup and tell the truth about
many other food products which they
now sell they will find their business
not only Improbable but impossible.
and the trade which they now get will
go to the legitimate home grocers who
will be responsible to the buyer for
the food products which go over their

GOOD ADVICE TO LAWYERS

One of the most significant pub
lie utterances delivered for some
time by a man of prominence was that
Of Justice David j. Brewer in Carnegie
hall last Sunday when he made plea
for higher standard of ethics in the
legal profession. Judge Brewer
doesn t seem to understand why law
yer can't be just as honest as an ordi-
nary citizen. The remarks by this
eminent authority, which are as fol-.
lows, will be read with interest by
Glenwo,d's lawyers. who are all just
about as honest as the rest of u.s.
is it strange that there should be
so much criticism of the barr We
must remember that the wisdom of the
lawmakeI can never keep pace with
the ingenuity of trained minds seeking
to evade legal limitations. The old
saying that holes may be found in
every law means simply that an in
genious lawyer can often find either
in the statute itself or in the mode of
enforcement some way to escape from
its penalties. 1t is this which pro-
vokes the frequent remarks that the
law so seldom reaches the rich for
the rich can pay for the brainiest, and
the brainiest can most certainly and
quickly discover the means of evasion.
As against this l appeal for higher
standard of ethics. l appeal to every
lawyer to put his heart alongside his
head, to mix his conscience with his
brains. Let him have the courage to
say to his clients: 1T may be legal
but 1t is dishonest, and / will have
nothing to do with it. Is this ask
