Lecture Course Completed

The last number Of the public school
lecture course, "The Marble Waiteth, :"
by DR. Charles J.. j.. Cartwright, Of Pitts

Of the course. His theme, the develop
ment Of character, was forceiully and
beautifully handled. Dr. Cartwright has
tine delightful faculty 81 illustrating his
points by stories which are so true 10 life
that many times We forget its only q
lecture and imagine we are seeing the real
thing enacted before us. The course a. q
whole, while a new thing for Kingwood,
has proved q distinct success, judged from
every standpoint except, perphaps, the
financial, and many requests have already
been heard for a similar one next year.
Perhaps the fact that season tickets had
never before been sold for course and
the newness Of the plan made people q
little slow 10 take up with IL. However.
those who had IL in charge feel fully re-
paid for the effort put forth and are only
sorry that no surplus remained to be- ap-
piled 90 the school library fund. MANY

The Journal will have TO revise its opin-
ion OF that S29. 240, 600 fine which Judge
Lands imposed upon the Standard Oil
Company for violating the law. The
Journal extolled the fine rs an evidence
OF what the Republican party was going
to do to the trusts and the corporations.
But the Journal has been false prophet
so long that no one takes il seriously any
more. The title Of "old family journal"
has become extinct with the new genera
ton, who look to THE ARGUS for the real
news OF the day. However, the Journal
must not neglect telling its readers that
Judge Anderson has decided that the evil
dence does not show that the Standard
Oil Company violated the law and he in
structed the jury to return verdict OF
not guilty, which it did.
Thus the troubles OF the Journal null
tipiy. First the party defeated its prohi-
bition amendment, production tax on
oil, gas, and coal, primary election law,
and the public service commission. Now
comes the exoneration of the Standard
from any violation Of law by which II
could be feeced out Of the $50, 24O, 900
fine. Surely, the party is not treating
the Journal with the consideration Il de-
serves.

They tell as that Senator Nathan Bay
Scott is Standing pat' on the tari6. He
is opposed 10 any reduction In the tariff,
forsooth, because the workingmen will
feel the effects Of it." We have heard
that hoary chestnut for the last forty
years. First they wanted a protective
tariff to protect our Infant industries"
Then they switched from the "infant'
and demanded protection TO American
labor by the broad shield of American
law" to adopt the phrsseology of one
Judge Nathan 6off.
The manufacturers did not want the
American labor TO come in Competition
with the pauper labor of Europe" The
gentlemen who had monopoly of Ameri-
cas- industries did not want any protec-
ton for themselves that they might be
given a card Of admittance to the mil.
lionaire club. Oh, no. Their chief con-
Germ was 1.-THE poor laboringman. In
the language Of the lsmented Col. Nemegyi,
they wanted protective tariff that the
American workingmcn could be paid 81. so
day and have beefsteak three times IL
their molars could stand the grinding on
the tough old Texas steer.
III Senator Scott will take a cursory
glance around over the country he will
discover that the laboringmen have al
ready begun 70 feel the effects OF the wage
reduction, which cannot be charged to
tariff reduction. The employer can frame
up most any old excuse when he wants
to reduce wages. Every time there has
been an increase in wages the cost of liv-
ing has advanced threefold. The laborer
has not been able to add to his bank ac-
count by the so-cslled increase in wages.
Rather the extortionate increase in the
cost OF living has reduced his wad.
Give us something new, senator.
