POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

IFrom the Chicago News.J
Many a man who acts like a bear is
foxy.
It's easy to discourage a man who
hasn't any courage.
Nearly all free-thinking men are in
the bachelor class.
Tomorrow is the only time to borrow
if you wouldn't sorrow.
1t doesn't do a particle of good to
yawn when some people talk.
If you want a thing done well don't
do 1t yourself unless you know how.
AS a matrimonial prize a homely girl
makes good more often than a pretty
one.
A woman isn't satisfied If her hus-
bands life is an open book-unIess it
Is a check-book.
When girl shows a young man a
photograph of herself she expects him
to ask for it.
If men were compelled to practice
what they preach most of them would
give up the preaching habit.
AS long as the earth is inhabited men
trouble for each other.
Some people will be awfully disap-
pointed If they get to heaven and can't
find anything to find fault with.
And a good deal of the knowledge
people acquire is about as useful in
their business as counterfeit money.
About the meanest thing a woman
can do when her husbands name is
mentioned is to sigh, look resigned and
say nothing.

"Uncle Jim" Hill usually hands out
few chunks of fairly good sense
whenever he talks for publication
about business affairs He is not only
one of the greatest railroad magnates
of the country, but he is also a great
empire builder. While he naturally
looks at things from a railroad stand
point, he has a broad vision and sees
far into the future.
Therefore when Uncle Jim had a
pronounced spell of the blues the 9TH
er day and said the credit of the rail-
roads had been ruined; that the gov
eminent would have to lend the roads
its credit, which would eventually
bring about government ownership;
and that the whole country was going
straight to the bow-wows, it sounded
so absurd that people wondered what
was the matter with Uncle Jim. He
talked like a man whose liver was on
strike.
But it seems that Uncle Jim had
better reason than a poor liver for
feeling blue. His railroad stocks have
been going down for several months,
and he feels less than half as rich as
he did a year ago. Where Great
Northern was once selling for 34S, it is
now worth only 1875. Northern Pa
cific has declined from 236 to 1913.
OF course. Uncle Jim's railroads are
earning him more money than they
ever did before, but he doesn't notice
that. They have more business than
they can take care of and there is no
prospect of any great falling off. The
trouble is that Uncle Jim once mort
gagged his roads for speculative pur-
poses. The roads themselves have
done well, but the interest on the
speculative bonds and dividends on
watered stock have naturally brought
down the market value of the stock
And SO Uncle Jim feels blue and has
an idea that the country is going
straight to the dogs.
But 1t isn't. Mr.. Hilrs railroads will
go on earning him more money in the
aggregate than ever before, and those
roads that haven't wasted their credit
or whose managers have not accumu-
lated bad regulations for themselves,
Will be able to borrow all the money
they need for legitimate purposes. The
country is still right side up.

FROM OTHER PENS
IS ORCHARD A LIAR?

Is this all lying? The man may be
lying as to the conversations with Moy-
er, Haywood and Pettibone, who, he
says were the principals. the instigat-
ors of his astrocious acts. But he is
not lying about the acts themselves.
The victims are dead. Their unaveng-
ed blood cries UP to heaven. There
seems to be abundance of corrobora-
ton that Orchard acted the part of
their fate. 1t remains to be seen If
he is telling the truth when he says
that in doing so he was the agent
of the inner circle of the miners I'M
ion-the men on trial at Boise City.
If not, then he was somebody's agent.
and the principals must be brought
to book.
Whatever the law may do to Harry
Orchard, in spirit he is beyond the
reach of society's penalties. He is in
the position of one to whom nothing
worst that man may do, and can sur
ately as If they were those of a man al
ready dead. Confession has brought
him relief. Justice must do it's work
upon others, upon the guilty wherever
they lurk in darkness. Society has
a task before it that 1t should ap-
proach with as much resolution and
as little passion as it would the Kill
