U) Economic Freedom.
(2) Political Liberty.
The element of Liberty proceeds from
the economic foundation upon which
Society rests, and treat first of the
principles and only true foundation
upon which a great Nation may be
building.
Economic Freedom is the right to
erystalize your human enrgy into food,
clothing and shelter and the things de-
veloped and eraved for by the higher
instincts of the reasoning, human
family. Tis true, that the self salts

the time now is, when all wealth in

FIRST CITY TO USE oASLIaHT.

nlsninate Richmond, Va.
The old stone house is the oldest
glory 1t entertained many noted people,
says the Boston Post. Here George
Warrington had his headquarters here
Lafayette lived for a time. and James
Monroe was at one time its tenant.
A favorite meeting place for the lead
ers Of the South. it became known as
the political capitol of Richmond. It
still contains many relics of it's noted
occupants.
A curious bit Of forgotten history
was enacted near the old house in
1902. There came to Richmond one
Henfrey in that year, and be announced
to the citizens that he could pour fame,
from q teakettle instead Of steam or
water. He showed the astonished citi-
zens this feat. and As a result was
lighting the city.
He erected neal the old stone house
an octagonal tower Of brick with 4
large lantern with many jets on the
top. Here he proceeded to generate
gas In a kind Of still In the basement,
and conducted it by a pipe to the
burners. The experiment was wonder
fully successful, and Richmond thus
had the distinction of being the first
city in America to use gas lighting.
Henfrey failed in ono thing az cleo
triclight pioneers failed later. He ex-
pected that his lighthouse" would IL
Illuminate the whole city. This was not
accomplished and the novelty wore OF.
and finally Henfrey's tower was aban-
doned.

general use, n Richmond. which re-
fused to support the pioneer. Was
forced to adopt gas lighting.
