SECRET OF SUCCESS.

Remember, my son, you have to
work Whether you handle pick or
a pen, a wheelbarrow ora set of books,
dig stitches or edit paper, ring an
auction bell or write funny things,
you must work. If you will look
around, you will see the men who are
most able to live the rest of their
days without work are the men who
work the hardest. Don't be afraid of
killing yourself with over work. 1t is
beyond your power to do that on the
sunny side of thirty. They die some
times, but it is because they quit
work at 6 p. M, and don't get home
until a. m. It's the interval that
kills, my sou. The work gives you an
appetite for your meals: it lends solid
ity to your slumbers; it gives you
perfect and grateful appreciation of
the holiday. There are young men
who do not work, but the world is not
proud of them. 1t does not know
their names even: it simply speaks of
them as "old So andSo'a boys" No
body likes them; the great, busy world
doesn't know that they are there. SO
find what you want to be aud do, and
take off your coat and make dust in
the world. The bu-ier you are the
less harm you will be apt to get into,
the sweeter will be your slum Der, the
brighter and happier your holidays,
and the better satisfied the word will
be with you. : Bob Burdette.

ANOTHER amendment to the consti
tuition that should receive favorable
vote is that allowing $500 per year
to the attorney general. There is no
good reason why that official should
be asked to serve at salary of 81 900
per year when other state officers of
no more responsibility receive $500
per year and men on the circuit bench
of no greater qualifications receive
$500 per year The attorney gener-
al earns as great salary as do the
other officials in the state house.

IT will be remembered that in seek
ing for a cover under which he could
favor the Standard Oil Co. and re-
verse Judge Landis' decision and the
$29,00000000 one Judge Grosscup
declared that the shipement of each
carload contrary to law did not con-
stitute separate offense. At the
recent hearing before the U. S. circuit
court at Philadelphia where the Hep
burn amendment to the interstate
commerce law was questioned the
railroads contented that the shipment
of each and every car would constitute
a separate offense. Either Grosscup
or this circuit court is absolutely
wrong, and one or the other is entirely
incompetent and unfit for the position,
and yet the people have no redress.

AN EASY NUT FOR THE RAILROADS,

The esteemed Minneapolis journal,
much given to philosophical consola-
ton. reassures itself after reading
Judge Gray's decision that the federal
government cannot prevent railroads
from forming coal monopoly, by
saying:
''Even if the roads have preserved
to them the right to engage in mining,
they have lost the power to charge
their private competitors a different
rate from that they charge themselves.
Their rates must he reasonable and
they must be OF uniform application" !"
The journal has reference to the in
terstate commerce law which gives
the commission the right to fix maxi
mum rates. But there are two games
the railroads may play in building a
monopoly in any industry they may
enter.
They may either charge competitors
such high freight rates that they will
be ruined or they may sell their own
coal for the cost of mining plus the
freight rate and without any profit on
the coal.
The former OF these two devices
has been destroyed by the interstate
commerce law, as the Journal says.
But what is to prevent the coal rail-
roads from playing the other game?
The interstate commerce commission
can have nothing to say about the
selling price OF col. That body is
powerless TO prevent the coal roads
from taking as their profit only the
price of transportation which is a
part of the cost of the coal handled
by competitors. Neither can it be
confidently expected that any law
whatever can be devised ingenious
and practical enough 10 prevent
corporations from selling their pro-
ducts too low for competitors to
survive, in the expectation of greatly
increased profits in the monopoly that
would eventually be created. The
Standard Oil company has been work.
ing this game many years and ii has
never been stopped.
There is no way OF breaking up the
railroad coal monopoly except 10 pro-
hibit it. It requires very little tinan-
cial ability to make trust when one
kind of the profit of one producer is a
part Of the cost that must be paid by

EPIGRAMS.

| From Sunday Sermon by Rev. II. Preston
While we all agree to the general
proposition as to the helpfulness OF
hardship and trial as developer OF
character, as far as we are individual
ly concerned it is hard for us to bear
the pressure and pain.
Consolation, encouragement and
hope are greatly needed by us. 1t is
delightful to remember the promise
that Divine love will not suffer us to
be tempted beyond that we are able
and that way will be made for our
escape.
"Tried above that ye are able" How
easily this might be. A fair share of
hardship developes heroic qualities,
but when existence becomes too hard
it breaks the spirit. If Heaven did
not temper life, the finer qualities
would not be developed in us.
1t is the same God over all. The
blizzard owns the same rule as the
zephyr; the storm that scatters is
measured as delicately as the sunshine
that ripeus; one gracious will fashions
the flower, and points the thorn.
The same Divine love that watch,
over our comfort and our need,
stands by in the time of our trial and
our sorrow. For He knowelh our
frame; He ramembereth that we are
dust"
Think of the doors of escape that
are opened to us in nature, in the
intellect, in the law of reaction in our
natures, in the sentiment of brother
hood, in the home life and even in
the alienation of the trials.
Above all there is the door Of re-
ligious hope. What hiding place is
the church of God. Strengthened by
its sacraments, uplifted by its songs,
the believing soul forgets its griefs
and cares.
