HOW ALIKE WE ARE

HOW ALIKE WE ARE
Someone has said that the whole
world is kin. How true that is. What
a sameness there is running through
the warp and wool of human nature.
influences; controlled by the same en-
vironments; animated by the same as
pirations And what a struggle life
has always beeu.
We may well ask: What is il all
for? What does it all mean?
The other night, when the copy tot
the little daily was all in, when there
was a lull at the editorial table, and
we were waiting to peruse the last
proofs, we picked up an old volume
and read part of a sermon of Good
Saint Ambrose. 1t was his funeral
Grafton over his brother. We were
struck by his reference to those
trOublous times"
bles" of those times"
That was nearly sixteen hundred
years ago. There were no railroads
in those days to annoy and veX the
soul of the ordinary shipper and leg
islator. There were no trusts. There
were no one hundred and one differ
ent religious denominations. Yet the
people in those days had their trou-
bles as we have ours. We can't seem
to get away from them.
Then we read Good Saint Angus
tines discourse on the Lords prayer.
He told of troubles and struggles, too.
Parents. sometimes" he said, when
they have gotten one, two or three
children. fear to give birth to any
more, lest they veduce the res to
beggary."
The gaUnt wolf then, as he does
now, made his appearance at so many
homes, and want, or the fear of want,
was a constant spectre, and, like Ban
quos ghost, would not down, and con-
tinued to disturb ones sleeping and
waking hours, as he does until this
day.
Since these good souls have been
called to their reward nearly sixteen,
hundred years have rolled by. More
than half of the world has been dis
covered since then. We have largely
conquered the forces of nature She
has very few secrets that she has not
revealed to us, ard we have utilized
them all to our comfort. We have in
vented a thousand labor-saving ma
chimes. We cover many miles in trav-
ell where these good people covered
only one. We point to our achieve
ments and accomplishments in gilt
tering and fascinating colors, and yet
with it all life continues a toll and
struggle, and the fear of want still
haunts us.
Life is still a mystery.
The new born babe opens it's eyes
in wonderment at the things it sees
around and about it, but as it grows
to manhood and womanhood, the mys-
teries are never unfolded to it, and
as its aged feet go tottering down the
hill the question is still unsolved-
What is it all for? What does it all
mean?
A thousand years from now lite will
continue to be a struggle and the
same questions will perplex the mind
of those then living, and the riddle of
life will be still unsolved.
Between the finite and the infinite
there hangs an impenetrable veil
which is no nearer being lifted today
than it was when the first man was
created.
Will it always be so? 1t looks that
way.

STRUCTURE NEARING
COMPLETION
CONCRETE WORK ON BRIDGE
WILL BE COMPLETED BY
TOMORROW EVENING.

Work on the construction OF the new
bridge is progressing ut a rapid rate
and Monday night will probably see
the completion OF the. concrete laying
There remains of this part Of the work
only the large space near the south
abutment and over The Puget Sound
tracks. At the north end Of the struc-
ture Superintendent Grove had men
hauling sand yesterday and placing IL
along the roadway. so that by Monday
noon the laying OF the wooden blocks
can be commenced. A shipment OF IS
barrels 80 tons, of tar has arrived and
will be ready for use early this week
1t Is to be heated and poured over the
wooden blocks. and when IL has hard
ened the roadway will be finally com
pleted and the bridge win be in shape
to be turned over to the county COM
missioners.
Regarding the time when the pub
lie will be permitted to use the side
walks, the men in charge OF the work
are somewhat at loss to state. II
is thought that nobody will be allowed
to use the bridge until II is finally
completed and has been accepted by
the commissioners, but there Is a
chance that II will be thrown open To
foot passengers some time this week.
This. however. Is not probable.
