SOCIALISM

Socialism may seem Co it's advocates Go be a modern conception of govern m,nt based upon the twentieth century inlrrprytatiou of Christianity. In this tlsy age mistaken. History iS rcpeat- iu- itself. Rome tried NocIalsmm the days of the Grachi, when corn was sold to the poor at half rates on the .oaiaHstic principle that the poor should pay les, than the rich for the same article. The result Was a vast community of idIerS in whom patriot ism was dead. and who would not raise hand ,o defend the country that gave them bread. Before Rome intro duced her sociulisJic principles, giving the poor corn at half rates, she could muster am army of IOlOJO uee-born meu. X century and a half of this practical application of NoctaltStIc principles left the city in a condition where an army of l5.OOO men could not be raised without drawing upon emau- cipated slaves anu veterans.
 Athens sought to relieve the condi- tlons of the lower classes by placing additional burdens oG taxation upon the wealthy. Thl, double burden rested as an mcubu, upon industry, and tended ,o tine jmpoverishmcut of the well Co do. When her revenues were gone Athens fell before her eue- mics

RECOVERING FROM THE PANIC

Hopeful indications O. the revival Of business throughout ,ue country are seen in different cities. Report, from 6l5 firm, in Chicago show that by the 5rsrof March they will have nearly as many men at work as they employed a year ago.
 One pain. company in Cleveland, Ohio. has, OF will soon, put on the road 250 travelling statesmen who had been laid off for short time. The American Snipbaudiug Company which closed down late in the year, has put 5,0oD men Jo work again, and plans 10 reiustuc 5000 more in a short time.
 In St. Louis 5000 men have been or dercd back to work who had been thrown out of employment on account of the panic.
 Some think it a sign of easy times that the United States Steel Corpora tion distributed S3,OOO,OOO to it's su- peIintendentS, managers and heads of departments as Christmas presents, out it is barely possible that times for the average man might have been easier if this and similar corporations had not had so much ready cash to distribute among the favored ones.
 Times will revive in the west much more quickly than in the east. The Hartman railway lines will initiate colonist rates to the northwest on March 1. When times are dull in the east the tendency will be the stronger to migrate westward.
 Were it not for the hesitancy always noticeable in business enterprises dur ing presidential year we might look for a revival of business in 1908 that would atone for the slump in the clos ing months of the past year.

The Land of rlocha Coffee

The very best of our Mocha coffee IS shipped from Alden, on the south west coast of Aarbiu, to the United States. Itcomes there on camels from the province of Yemen, It jS raised
 there by the natives, each family hay ing a few bushes about it's house, and producing only enough for home use and a little for trading. There are no big plantations and no coffee factories. The berries are gathered when ripe and dried in the sun. After this they are put in bales and carried on camel back over the hills to Alden. They are hulIed between mjllstOueS turned by hand, and are then winnowed and sorted for shipment. The latter work is done by the women, who look over each grain carefully and take out the bad ones. Labor is cheap but the cof- fee has Co go through many hands. It pays toll to the chiefs of the tribes who own the country through which it k carried, and as a result must be sold at high prices. For this reason we have limitations of Mocha coffee from all parts of the world. During my stay on the plantations of Brazil II have seen them label bags aS Mocha; and Guatemala and other cofTees are sold under the same name. Just now they are bringing coffee from Ceylon and Java to Alden and transNhipping 1t here. They lie in the warehouses for few weeks, and then go forth re- marked, and perhaps rebagged as Arabian Mocha. Prank Carpenter.

Go death, and others gathered in their comfortable homes congratulating themselves that they are not in the far Northland where, they reason, 1t must be more severely cold, we of this same Nurthland are enjoying the fin est kind of moderate winter weather. We seldom wear mittenS, and some do not even feel the need of an overcoat. The days and nights are clear; there is no wind, and the temperature only a few degrees below the freezing point.
 A few degrees below zero, not more than seven or eight, is the coldest we have had in Seward this winter, and that lasted but a day or two.
 This is not only the land of gold, sil- yer, copper and other metals, but it is the land of pure air and wholesome water. This k certainly an ideal country for Major Ozone, and we should not be surprised to see him pass this way most any day in his pursuit of fresh air of which he is such an en- JhuSiastic advocate.
 Even 400 miles north of Seward, in Fairbanks, the average temperature for December was only three degrees and a traction below zero, and on Jan nary lg the temperature was much above the freezing point.
 The country, climate and resources are here and when the advantages of the country come to be better un- derstood the men and money will be here to make it a prosperous and hap py land.

Alter Argentina Trade

That the United States k not taking proper precautions to protect its com mer,e and trade with South America and especially with the rich republic of Argentina is the declaration of practically all the American residents of Bcunos AyreS, who have become alarmed by the recent action of con- gres, in granting a subvention of 5000 gold annually Joa German syndicate for promoting commerce between Germany and Argentina Already Germany has strong hold on the Ar genuine trade and threatens soon to supplant both Great Britain and the United States.

Mr.. Forgan, however, fails to con.
slider the system of inspection and

speculation of the would be" bank.
ers would not long continue. In addi.
tion to this. II the fund which remu.

general tax, it would give an incentive
to all honest bankers to seek the bet.

Where they are now apathetic. since

large bankers would be most vigorous
in their demand for the attachment of
strict criminal penalties sor violation
of banking laws and for tle strict en-.

conclusions. and with all respect to
his experience. the proposed guaran-

err the character of banking.
Another objection hat has been
urged, is that it is unjust to tax a good
bank for the losses IF another bank
with the failure of which it is in no
way connected. The plan is merely
compulsory insurance. For the same
reason that voluntarily am willing

itor be willing to bear his share of the
losses of defunct banks. The consid-

1t is of course clear that the tax is not
upon the bank or the officials, but is
only through them laid Upon the de.
rositor. 1t comes from him In the
decreased interest that the bank will
pay him. Judging. however, from the
demand for secure investments of low
interest bonds at premium, the people
are willing to pay for security.

NV DarIinu's Shoes,

For the little shoes are empty i'll my
closet laid away!
Sometimes take one in my hand for
getting till see
It is little half-worn shoe, not large
enough for me:
And all at once feel sense Of bitter
loss and pain.
AS sharp as when two years ago it cut
my heart in twain
o. little feet, that wearied not, I wait
for them no more,
For am drifting on the tide. but they
have reached the shore;
And while the binding teardrops wet
these little shoes of old.
try to think my darling's feet arc
treading streets Of gold.
And so I lay them down again, bus all
ways turn to say
God bless the little feet that now Sc
surely cannot stray.
And while I thus am standing. al
e., ways seem to see
Two little forms beside me, just Us
they used to be;
Two little faces lifted with their sweet
and tender ewes.
All. me! I might have known that look
was born in Paradise.
L reach my arms out fondly' but they
clasp the empty air!
There is nothing Of my darlings bu, the
shoes they used to wear.
o, the bitterness of parting cannot b.
done away
Till meet my darlings walking where
their feet can never stray:
When no more am drifting upon the
surging tide,
But with them safely landed upon the
river side;
Be patient. heart while waiting to see
their shining way.
For the little feet in the golden street
can never go astray.
