NOTHING FROM NOTHING.

After long and painful labor the pub
lie lands convention in Denver has de-
cided that it does not wish any change
made in existing land laws The king
of France has marched up the hill and
then marched down again.
What difference does such a resolu-
ton make in the situation? The ad-
ministration doesn't care whether the
land laws are changed legally or. not;
it makes changes in the operation of
the laws whenever the president feels
like it. He suspended the laws govern
ing entries. although he had no au-
thority to do so; he withdrew all the
coal lands from entry though con-
gress, his superior in power, did not
authorize IL. He has ordered some IL
remain, as political exigency required,
although the law is imperative, de-
handing the removal of all fences
around the public domain. What cares
he whether the laws are changed or
whether a convention favors their re-
tention in the present form? Like the
French monarch. he is the law-and
that is all there is to be said about it.
On the other hand, the laws ought
TO be changed to meet modern condi-
tons. The limitation of the amount of
land that may be entered by an indi-
vidual or corporation is silly. Some
lands, agricultural holdings particular
ly, should be limited. Others, such as
coal lands and range lands. should be
permitted entry in large areas, prop
erly specified as local conditions may
require. The whole land system should
be modified and adapted to the peculiar
conditions that prevail in different To-
calities.
A convention of cigar store Indians
could have reached just as wise a con-
clusion as the ultimate resolution of
this Denver aggregation embodied in
q resolution to do nothing!

CONTRACT WAGE SCALE.

In an assembly of intelligent work
ingmen. representatives of the West
ern Federation of Miners, held in DEN
yer, a resolution was adopted repudiat-
ing the contracts made by local
branches of the union with their en-
ployers on the ground that such con-
tracts tend to enslave the working
men. The resolution was opposed by
the delegates from Butte and other
places where such contracts have been
made. but it carried by a large ma
jority.
Just why there should be any senti-
ment against the fulfillment of con-
sideration. does not appear in the re
ports of the convention. The very es-
sence of industrial stability is the GER
tainty of conditions. No manufacturer
would undertake to contract a sale if
he did not know in advance that his
purchases of raw material would be
delivered as contracted for. No labor
condition could be guaranteed by en-
ployers if factors of cost were not as
certainable in advance.
San Francisco today is a living ex-
ample, a horrible example of the re-
suits which follow uncertainty as to
labor scales, material costs and ether
elements of construction expense.
There the owner of property anxious
to improve finds that no bank will lend
money on building improvements. be-
cause no one knows what building will
cost. Wages are high, but employment
is uncertain and irregular. Only one
alternative has been open to employ
ers, and that is the open shop.
The Typographical union, the best
organized and most intelligently d.
country, not >only approves contracts
for wage scales, but it has agreements
with the Newspaper Publishers asso-
citation. making such contracts prac-
tically obligatory. Where this agree
ment exists strikes and lockouts are
impossible. Such trouble as may arise
is settled by arbitration. The result is
that no skilled labor is better paid than
the unions members; they have no
apprehension of strikes or lockouts or
disagreeabie fights with employers.
They know just what they will be paid.
and when a wage question arises they
know it will be settled without inter-
ruption of work or costly controversies
The contract may bind men to a GER
tain price for labor, but it also COM
pels the employer to pay certain price
whether it is profitable or not. The
possibility of gain or loss is quite as
much on one side as on the other but
both profit by the stability of ,,ondi-
lions guaranteed by contracts made
and observed in good faith. AS be-
tween this system and the system
favored by the Western Federation,
there would seem TO be every reason
why the certainty of contract eondi-
lions is the better for both employer
and employee.

PLEASURES OF THE RICH.
Writer in Life Sheds New Light on the
Subject.

There has, from time immemorial,
been a disposition to criticise the hab-
its of the very rich, on the ground
that they permit themselves too many
pleasures. There is popularity sup
posed to be a kind of unseemliness in
the spectacle of plutocrat indulging
himself in steam yachts, private cars
and golf links, summer camps and so
forth.
In reality this shows a mean spirit
toward the very rich. Why, indeed,
should we grudge them the few pleas
ures they have, when there are so
many that they cannot buy?
Certain brands of friendship or a
good digestion or hard working and
conscientious children, cannot be OBJ
tanned by the very rich. Instead, they
have to content themselves with all
the cheaper things that money can
buy.
Let them therefore enjoy themselves
in their small way. They deserve to
be made happy over trifles, assuming
that they always have the necessary
capacity.-Life.

ON Child Labor

The Woman's Home Companion. which
has conducted vigorous m p a L
against child labor for year past, pub
fishes in its June number startling des-
cription of child labor conditions in Penn
sylyania The article which appears IN
the Child Labor Department officially
furnished each month to the Woman S
Home Companion by the National Child
Labor Committee, of which President
Roosevelt is an honorary member, says:
in 1902 the Anthracite Strike Com
mission found girl of eleven working in
a Pennsylvania silk mill twelve hours a
night for three cents an hour.
"Nearly seven hundred thousand children
are working in the United States in occu-
pations other than agriculture. or these
seven hundred thousand children, one in
every six is working in Pennsylvania.
With twelfth Of the population, Penn
sylvania has a sixth of the child labor.
1.-The number of working children in
Pennsylvania is growing with alarming
rapidity. In 1908 there we're $4,000
working children discovered by the Fac
tory Department; in 1904, a 900; anc
by 1905 the number had risen to $4,000
an increase of fifty per cent in two years.

Marriages i'm Heaven

"Since heaven Is of the human race,
says Swedenborg, land angels are there
fore of both sexes. and since from crea-
ton woman is for man and man for
woman, thus the one is the others, ano
since this love is innate in both, II follows
that there are marriages in heaven as
we'll as on earth.
Marriage in heaven is the conjunction
of two into one mind The mind consists
of two parts, the one of which is calico
the understanding and the other the will
When these two parts make one, then
they are called one mind. The husband
then makes the part which is called the
understanding and the wife that which is
called the will. When this conjunction
comes lower down into what is OF then
body it is then perceived and felt as love
and this love is marriage love.
Marriages in heaven differ from mar
riages upon earth in this, that marriage:
on earth are also for the procreation o.
offspring, but not in heaven instead o.
that procreation, there is in heaven
procreation Of good and truth.
Marriages on earth, because they are
the seminares of the human race anC
also of the angels of heaven, are therefore
most holy in the sight of the angels o
heaven.

Teachers, Wages

Many persons who have had no ex-
perlence in the teaching line, says the
Fulton News, seem to think that any
common school teacher whose wages are
from SIS to $40 per month ought to
make an independent fortune in short
time. Let such a one stop and consider
what is expected of a teacher. In the
first plac. she is expected to be well
dressed at all times, which is no small
item of expense. She is expected to buy
all the latest books. and subscribe for all
the popular educational journals of the
day; attend teachers meetings whenever
and wherever held, and to spend from
three to five weeks at an institute during
her short vacation. All these require
ments are attended by no small expense,
and the teachers who comply with them
will find at the close Of the year that they
have a very small portion Of their earn
Ings to lay up for rainy day
do not understand by the above as
sertons that such requirements are use
less. But when it has become almost
absolutely necessary for a teacher to
attend all such meetings as those who
have supervision over them shall appoint;
il should be also required Of the board OF
education and directors that they pay
their teachers such wages as will enable
them to attend and have enough Of their
earnings left to last them until the schoo
term begins again
