Purpose Of Optimistic Club ls 20 Re-
store Financial Confidence.
BE an Optimist and Smile" is the
motto of the Chicago branch of the
Optimist Club Of America. which was
recently organized in the parlors Of
the Auditorium Annex, says the Chi
cag0 Tribune. President Roosevelt
was elected an honorary member, and
the names Of 100 Chicago men were
fled for membership.
The club is formed for the purpose
Of restoring confidence in the financial
Oohdition of the country and to fur
Their prosperity generally. Each mem
Der will wear a button of the club
which viii bear its title and across
its face the word in bright blue letters
Smile"
EVERY man is invited to Join who
can smile in the face Of trouble and
pass the smile along" explained a
member Of the executive committee.
when we are a half hour dead we
could not change a quarter, and life
Is still sweeter than death, but we
can stiH smile, and our smile may help
some poor fellow to fight his troubles.
Nothing goes to the demnltion bow
vows but the dead ones. Amy old dead
Ash can float with the current, but it
takes the live ones to swim upstream"
The purpose of the club was stated
conctsely In the following preamble
and resolution, which were adopted
unanimously:
Whereas, There are a wave of pessimism
and lack of confidence sweeping over the
country today, making the timid more
weak and causing strong men to trem-
BILE, tending to put a negative side of life
TO the front; therefore, be 1t
Resolved, That we unite for the purpose
of encouraging and disseminating opti-
mistic thought and spirit of confidence
throughout the land.
The idea originated in Salt Lake
City. where the parent body was or
ganized a few days ago, with Govern
or John C. Cutler of Utah as its pres
ident. William j. Robinson of New
York, chief optlmist at large, organic
ed the Chicago branch and installed

FLOATING CONCRETE BLOCK.

Milwaukee Mans Invention That VIII
Save Uncle Sans Money.
A concrete block weighing from sew
sn to fourteen tons that will AOat In
the water for a sufficient length Of
time to permit II to be towed to any
place desired before 1t Is lowered into
position Is a new and important fea-
ture In connection with the govern
ment breakwater and harbor work that
is at present in Its experimental stages
In Milwaukee.
That the new theory in preparing
concrete blocks for pier work by the
government will become a great sue
cess and that It will soon be found to
bo in general demand seems already
settled, says the Milwaukee Evening
Wisconsin. The trial trip" Of one Of
these blocks being aoated to position
was made in Milwaukee harbor the
other day under the personal direction
Of Major w. v. Judson, chief govern
ment engineer at Milwaukee and de-
signer Of the new style Of block.
Technically speaking. the new block
ia a reinforced concrete caisson, or
box. II may be built to almost any
size to meet the requirements Of any
particular government work. The pro
posed standard size. however, VIII
weigh about fourteen tons. In the ex-
detrimental work now being carried on
In Milwaukee the blocks used are half
that weight.
They consist Of walls OF concrete In
closing a large hollow space. This Il
made water tight 20 that the block
floats and can be taken direct to a
point over the position in the pier for
which 1t Is designed. II n then un-
corked, like a barrel. and the water ia
allowed to rush in, sinking 1t to posi-.
ton. The hollow space Ii then filled in
with sand and gravel, the water being
forced out as this material Is dumped
IN. and when the space 10 thus filed
the block IL sealed up. like a jar Of
preserves, and il finished.
In floating out to the pier at the NIL
waukee breakwater the first Of two Of
these blocks was allowed to remain in
the water for twenty-four hours in or.
der to determine It's floating qualities
and how long It might be possible to
keep a block afioat II necessary before
the water caused 1t to sink. As rule
a few hours are sufficient time for
handling one of these blocks from itH
starting place to the point where It d
desired to lower 1t.
Should the JudsOn REINFORCED con,
crete caisson prove all that is expected
Of 1t, number of these blocks double
the size Of the experimental ones al
Milwaukee win be made for use in the
work at Algoma, which win begin IN
early spring. Later there is no doubt
the blocks win be called for at various
points where government work is to b
done. 1t Is said that the government

ment work ID without extra cost Il

PARCELS POST

The Press calls the attention of
merchants as well as mechanics and
all others who earn living or do
business in this city to the article
published in another column on the
subject of the parcels post. II clear
ly sets forth what would happen to
the merchants of this city and all
other small cities and villages II the
plans OF the big city department
stores to have the people taxed to
cover big deficits in the postal de-
partment for their benefit, by the es-
adjustment OF parcels post, should
be put into execution. AS the
Press has heretofore remarked, a
parcels post will paralyze business
and create a panic. the like OF which
the country has never known. BUSH
ness would go to the big department
stores forcing the country merchants
to discharge clerks, curtail their
draying, dispose of delivery teams
and reduce their business generally.
This means a rush to the big cities
for employment, empty houses, less
employment for mechanics and lab
orers and consequent lower wages.
lower prices for farm products and
stagnatlon in all lines. II you wish
to bring about these conditions sup
port the parcels post law; but II you
wish progress and prosperity write
your congressman and senators,
protesting against the enactment of
the inquitous system.
We are in the habit of decrying
the pauper labor OF Europe and say
that the American lives better and
must receive higher wages. In Eur
ope the parcels post Is a necessary
adjunct of conditions---in America 1t
would bring about such conditions.
There Is another lesson In the ar
ticle which we print elsewhere from
the New England Grocer 1t ex-
ploits the value of the local news
paper as an influence that should
not be overlooked and says to get
your local papers to print editorials
as strong as possible arguing against
the parcels post measure" To do
this the local paper must have the
support of the merchants and the
people. and we can truthfully say
that the Press merits and has been
given this support. because It is not
afraid to advocate that which is for
the good of the community.
Postmaster General Meyer is
making a serious blunder In advo-
eating a lower merchandise rate be-
cause the United States postofIice
should not be turned into a freight
department with big deficits to be
made good by the taxation OF the
people,

two-thirds of the states gravel has been the principal surracing material used in improving the roads. There are several other reasons why the per centage of improved roads is higher in some of the states than in others. The high per centage of improved roads in Massachusetts, Rhode Is land, Connecticut and New Jersey is due principally to the facts that suit able road-building materials abound, that many of the roads have been built through the aid of the state and under the direction of competent state authorities. Indiana and Ohio have an unusually high per centage of improved roads, because these states are abundantly supplied with good road building stone and gravel and because the social and economic conditions were favorable to the mak- ing of public improvements.
 Records are on file to show that farm lands have been known to ad vance in value from 50 to 500 per cent on account of the improvement of the roads connecting them with market towns.

Victoria, Aug. News has been re- ceived here of the seizure while at tempting a raid upon the Copper Is- land seal rookery on June r, by the Japanese scaling schooner Miyo Maru one of the two which took part in the fatal raid of June 16. 1905, at St. Paul Island, Boring sea, when five Japanese were killed by guards and twelve wounded
 The MiyO Maru's sealing boats were out attempting to loot the haul ing grounds, and were captured by a Russian patrol cruiser.
 Capt NOmura, the commander and a crew of thirty-one Japanese sealers have been imprisoned at Pettropave- loski, on the Kamtchatsla coast. Pro tests have been lodged by the Japanese on account of the imprisonment and a representative has been sent to St. Petersburg
