 turned honestly, wrongs no one. Go forth increase and multiply, is a command with out which economic progress would not be. But in all this there is no need that the corporation should initialy cap italize projected success that if it ex- ists at all, exists only in the future. Let the securities issued on account of sue cess be issued only when success is es- tablished and let them be fairly related as the enterprise grows, to the increased value of the actual earning power de- veloped. And l can see no reason why in any honest enterprise the question whether additional securities shall be is- sued should not be made the subject of judicial inquiry
 Duty of Investors.
 "One thing more in the line of struc- tural principles. The first duty of every enterprise, incorporated or private, is to secure to the capital invested its eventual safe return, while paying on it from time to time, after payment of operating ex- penses, such fair returns for its use as the nature of the venture suggests This is what capital always has the right to ask. But this having been accomplished, there are some enterprises now that take labor and management into partnership in the further disposition of the fruits of success. That kind of partnership Is not compulsory; but l would try to infuse into the corporation of the future an in- centive and a spirit that would make it more usual-that would give tc = workman, the clerk, the employe of every kind, an opportunity to individually share in the growth of the enterprise to which he is attached This not q mere philanthropic dream, The spirit will come when the employe feels that what he gets, he gets as a matter of contract not as 6 matter of gift, and is as secure therein as is the corresponding interest of the employer; and when the employer wakes up to the truth, that as 1t is not by bread alone that men live, it is not for bread alone that men put forth their best work: and the incentive may be sup piled by the application of those we'll known powers of taxation, that instead of being wholly directed toward trans ferring to the government a part of the successful, could be employed to bring about a wider diffusion of the permanent fruits of success among those who by their labor had contributed to the success. This is not socialism. It may have the philanthropic spirit of socialism but in it's end and aim, it is the antidote of social ism--in any long look ahead. the only antidote on which individualism can se- curely rely.

What Was ItP

The weighty discussion launched by the
American Language Association at New
Haven, Conn, a few weeks ago, as to
whether it was an apple OF some other
fruit that Adam accepted from the
hands Of Eve in the Garden Of Eden. is
raging throughout the land. and with
ever-increasing violence. Opinion varies
among scholars and heavy thinkers,
although the paragraphers. fippantly
and not unexpectedly, have arisen in
their concerted might and declared with
one voice that il was a lemon.
1t Is 4 grave and overshadOwing ques-
tion. The oft thrashed-out controversy
as 10 whether the Book of Job Is history
or allegory pales into insignificance before
it. The many times disputed vocal
proclivities of Balaam's ass is as nothing.
For the moment, the identity, so to speak,
Of the fruit that Eve. in her thoughtiess-
ness, or through her innate curiosity
handed to her trusting and unsuspecting
spouse is the all-absorbing topic. Scholars
gravely maintain that mistranslatiOns

insist that it was an Indian River orange;
Georgia that it was an Elberta peach.
California will claim that 1t was a prune:
Ohio that it was a Ben Davis apple
Alabama cannot understand how 1t could
have been anything less tempting than
a watermelon, while. in the absence Of
something better, Connecticut may even
claim that twas a wooden nutmeg.
The only difficulty with these theories
is the disastrous after effects accredited
to Adam and Eve following the as
similation of the offending fruit. No
State will be willing to admit that such
dire disaster could possibly follow the
eating of any of its cherished products
Only good things happen TO people who
partake Of Elberta peaches and California
prunes. The idea Of any section having

Cummins and DoIIiver.

The consensus OF opinion among we'll
informed Iowans in Washington is that
Senator DoIlIver will be reelected by the
legislature at Des M0ines without much
trouble. though there is a feeling that If
Gov Cummins should make an open
fight he might win the Senatorship. In
this matter, however, the governor is
peculiarly circumstanced. He owes his
commanding position IN Iowa politics dis
tinctly 10 the reform elements in his
party. He was reelected with the clear
understanding that amounts almost 10
pledge, that he would force through the
legislature certain measures for the re-
form of abuses pracuced by the railroads
and other corporations. and that the laws
on these subjects enacted by successive
legislatures of Wisconsin during the Ia
Toilette regime at Madison would be used
by him as his models Should he be
elected 70 the Senate AZ this time, the re-
form movement represented by him would
receive a setback II is largely for this
reason that he might be unable TO muster
dominating strength for the Senate
against Senator DOlliver should he con
sent TO the use Of his name. His chief
supporters in the reform movement viii
rot consent 10 his entering the race for
the Senate They would be left without
a leader should he be sent to Washington,
and their cause would suffer accordingly
In view of these circumstances Gov.
Cummins will have to bide his time and
wait Tor the veteran Senator AllisOn's
shoes.

Our Friends the Japanese.

For some reasons it is to be regretted that
our friends the Japanese have changed
their purpose about sending a squadron
of their fghting vessels on a visit to our
Pacific Coast Such visits between the
battle ships of friendly nations are Gus
tomary, and do much toward fostering a
better feeling. a deeper intimacy. II may
be, of course, that, owing 10 the recent
anti-Japanese movement In San Francisco
and vicinity, the japanese may have
doubted the courtesy that would have
been extended to them, but, II so, they
have quite mistaken our national charac-
teristics
During their recent war with Russia the
japanese had no stancher or more loyal
friends than ourselves. The moral sup
port, as well as the financial aid. they
received from the United States went a
long way toward making possible the sue
cess they achieved; and there is some
thing of implied distrust in their change
of naval programme that is deeply to be
deplored
Careful investigation OF the anti-Japa-
nese feeling on the Pacific Coast will

already-that the cause is not race preju-
dice at all, but labor prejudice. II is the
stress of Industrial competition that has
brought about the feeling. Whether or
not it is right for the Japanese, with their
lower standard Of living and their lower
ideals. to be allowed freely 10 compete
with American labor is a wide question
and one that we do not propose 10 dis
cuSs. The fact remains that for one rea-
son or another the intensely friendly re-
lations that existed between the empire
of the Afikado and ourselves have been
severely strained. and the refusal Of the
japanese naval authorities 70 allow their
ships 10 come here as planned only serves
to emphasize the unpleasantness.
Il shows, too. we think, that there is
imperative need for a new and clear def
milton of our relations with the island
empire. Under the present treaty. and
with the present feelings on the Coast.
there is altogether too much chance for
misunderstanding and that may easily
have serious consequences. Once for all
the question should be settled as 10 the
terms on which We are willing to do busi-
ness with Japan. We must recognize
that they have the right 10 be treated
with the respect accorded to citizens Of
other nations, or we must let IL be
frankly known that We do not desire
their immigration. except under such re-
sJrictions as we have placed upon the
immigrants of other Oriental countries
Even if we found it best 10 regulate Japa-
nese immigration something after the
same manner in which We have restricted
Chinese immigration, that-which would
cause the Japanese the deepest chagrin
and humiliauon-would be better than the
present uncertain condition, with its many
chances for mistakes
