The Carter bill and the SteenersOn

Practically all measures which have

and have made no restrictions upon
localities where such funds may be de-
posted.
The Steenerson bill, framed 20 meet

Government authority to deposit the

funds IN sound State, county or munici-
pal bonds.

NEW WAY TO MANAGE
BOY AND GIRL TRUANTS

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Dec. 3.-Hyp-
notism as cure for bad boys and girls
has been officially recognized by pro-
BATON officers c.. M. Young and Ida
Mcfarland in the Des Moines juvenile
courts. Professor Edgar Adams, hyp-
notist Of repute, has, been. placed in

and if he succeeds in effecting their
reform by hypnotic arts, as he says
he can, he will be given other young
sters to cure.
Adams began his work upon Frank
Burnes, who has given the probation
officer a great deal of trouble. 81
Young Burnes went to sleep quietly

New Phase Of the Question.

THE lower grades of humanity drive
the higher out of the labor market as
certainly and effectively as clipped
and light coins drive good money out
of circulation. Every holder Of light
coin desires to get rid of it by fore
ing it into circulation, but for hoard
ing or melting the best are always
selected. A different principle or line
of policy operates in forcing the su-
perior races out Of the labor market.
Their better mental capacity enables
them to bargain more successfully in
arranging wages or hours and condi-
lions Of work. The employer prefers
workers more innocent and docile. The
better taste cultivated by superior
races multiplies their needs and in
creases their cost of living, thus
prompting demands for a larger share
of the wealth their labor produces.
This is regarded with 1isfavor by en-
ployers. In fact, the inferior races are
willing to give more work for the en-
ployer's money, SO the others are
crowded out. Toronto Globe.

Socialism and Anarchjsm,

The conflict between Socialism and
anarchism is susceptible Of no truce.
The history of the Socialist movement
is in large part the history of a strug-
gle with anarchism. The result is
seen today in the fact that wherever
Socialism is strong las in Germany,
for example, anarchism is a negligible
force, and wherever, as in Spain, So
clallsm is weak, anarchism prevails.
Socialism is not only the greatest
force in the world opposed to anarch-
ism. it is the only remedy for the
conditions which make anarchists.
10 sweep away the hideous anomaly
of extreme misery side by side with
wanton extravaganza and colossal
wealth is the only effectual means of
staying the perilous tide Of anarchism.
Neither repressive measures nor tink-
Eering with the immigration laws will
accomplish that end, which is part of
the purpose and mission of Socialism

Worrying About the Future.

A rich man in Cincinnati ordered
his coffin in advance years ago. Paid
$500 for it. When he died last week
he had grown too big to go in it..
Lots of men and women order their
collins in advance. They worry and
weaken their wills by worry over dis
asters that never come, difficulties
they never meet and rivers of trouble
they never have to cross. Many lives
have been and are made miserable,
hopeless and profitless because people
refuse to move Or marry or take a
place Or enter a. business for fear of
contingencies and risks that never
came and duties and obligations that
were mere shams. Every home is
cluttered with things that are kept
waiting for use on this chance or that,
and then never used-coffins, all, that
have been ordered in advance. These
things are dsuted and moevd and kept
from the moths land packed and re-
packed, and in the end all is waste
