eY INDUSTRY MEN THRIVE.
True Not Alone Of steady Workers
but Of Sturdy 6eQqars Too.

There are" said q man who him
self lives without laboring. "beggars
who put art into their work, who size
up the man they are about to strike
and determine on the best manner
of approach, and then there are lazy
beggars. VINO use always the sam for
mula, without regard to the man or
the season; and you can easily imag'
Inc which OF these two men gathers
In the most money. But even the
least inventive of beggars can make
a living II he will only keep begging
even in his humdrum way.
"For, after all, 1t Is everlastingly
keeping at 1t that counts. The lazy
beggar who keeps at It.. even in his
lazy fashion. may indeed make more
money in the long run than the man
of talent who works only intermittent
ly; so true is 1t that by Industry we
thrive. In begging as in all things
else."--New York Sun.

maid. The housework - sweeping,
dusting. etc.--mainly falls upon the
men servants.
One element entailing much extra
work for servants In England Is alb.
sent in the French house. This is
the staying guest, the succession OF
visitors. Outside private hotels and
IN the handsome fats OF fashionable
quarters there Is, indeed. no room In
Partisan households for friends. The
words "dine and Sleep or week
end" visits have not found their way
into French dictionaries. nor have
dine and sleep or week end guests yet
become French institutions.
It is easy thus to understand why
three or four servants suffice In
France, while In England dozen
would be needed for people Of similar
means and position, and where three
or four maids are kept In England
only general servant is kept In
France.--Washingto Star.

Sidestepping.

At the recent meeting of the police
board Mayor Jim declined to vote upon
a motion involving the granting of a
liquor license with the explanation
that as ex-oficio chairman of the board
he had no voice unless the vote were
evenly divided. This would be a con-
venient way of sidestepping for the
mayor If there were anything to sup
port his position, the only strange part
being that no other mayor had eve
before discovered the anomaly. The
truth is, however, hat the mayor has
no such excuse for evading his full
share of responsibility for police board
action. The law creating the police
board reads:
In each city of the metropolitan class
there shall be a board of fire and police
commissioners to consist of the mayor,
who shall be ex-officio chairman Of the
board, and four electors of the city.
The mayor, plainly, is not an ex-
officio member OF the board, but
merely ex-oficio chairman of the
board, his membership being as abso-
Lutte and unconditional as that of any
other member of the board. In its
jurisdiction over liquor license matters
the police commissioners have a dual
capacity as constituting the excise
board, but the law defining the excise
board is as broad as that just quoted.
It's language is:
In cities of the metropolitan class the
power to license. etc, shall he vested ex-
clusively in the board of fire and police
commissioners of such city. and as COM
pensation for such services they shall
each receive the sum of $500 annually,
payable out of the police fund of their
respective cities.
Mayor Jim has not hesitated to draw
the $500 which he is entitled to draw
as pay for serving as excise commits
sioner, but which he would not be en-
titled to If he were simply a presiding
arbitrator over the meetings. If
Mayor Jim has been acting on legal
advice it is bad advice. and if he has
been simply sidestepping he will have
to back up and start over.

BRAYING ON MOUNTAIN TOPS.
Prize Mule Captured by EsmeraIda
County, Nevada,


Esmeralda county, in the great common
wealth Of Nevada, is to be the future home
OF Major Minnamascot. the democratic
mule. This animal, the adviser and con-
ISOLATION of 1908, is to go to Esmeralda
county because that community showed
the greatest democratic gains of any por-
ton of the earth's surface during the
recent struggle
Happy mule and thrice happy Nevada! In
that l~mpregnable Stronghold of democracy
the four-legged symbol of hope can browse
the sagebrush in sweet oblivion, waiting
for the day when 1t shall raise its resound-
ing bray as the trumpet of battle. Every
cloud has a silver lining In Nevada and
every sagebrush has sixteen branches.
Sweeter than amaranth and molly, brewster
than the fat weed that rots on the Lethe
wharf, Is the mystic sixteen branched
sagebrush. The deadly locoweed. which
works madness in the brain of horse and
mule, is far expelled from Esmeralda's
confines Cropping the food of dreams and
rolling its imprisoned eye to the ebon
clouds whose silver lining CLEANS athwart
and bray and muse upon things to come.
AS the prophet fled to the desert and slept
under a juniper, so the bugle-voiced prophet
of democracy may rest g while in the sage
brush of Esmeralda, waiting for the sound
of its masters voice.
1t is a time of quiet now and rest. The
enemy, flushed with victory. riots in Wash
ington. In the confines of Esmeralda the
clamor of the s%aturnalia sounds far away,
like noises in a swound. This is not the
time for Major M-innamascot to lift the
bray of taunt and defiance, nor to wave the
ear and tail of onslaught. The prophet has
turned from labor to r~efreshment, and will
be called TO labor again only by the voice
of the worshipful master. Let the heather
rage! The call will come as surely as 1912
follows 1908. And when It comes-when It
comes, the outburst OF Joy from Esmeralda
county will be like a chorus Of volcanoes,
with screeches of demons in the midst
thereof! Then. aroused and militant, the
pride Of Fairview will rampage back from
It's exile, its ears and tail erect, its eyes
glowing, and its bray echolng through
every canyon Of the Rocky mountains.
Happy Esmeralda, asylum OF unconquer-
able hope! Happy Nevada, holding In its
burning lap both Esmeralda and the mule!
The present is a time of tiredness and
thought; but there is a hereafter!

Mr.. Bryan's Rejoicings.

The esteemed Commoner, Mr..
Bryan's personally conducted organ,
breaks almost into yellow journalism
in the selection of black headlines for
the purpose of displaying news which
has evidently pleased Mr.. Bryan very
much. Prosperity Items is the title
used by Mr.. Bryan to announce the
fact that the Lackawanna Steel COM
pany has reduced wages in its Buffalo
plant, that the Deering Coal company
of Delaware has gone into the hands,
of a receiver, that wages are to be re-
duced in q New Haven steel company
and that the unemployed in New York
have been planning a public demon
stration.
This is simply additional proof that
the people OF the country do not un-
derstand Mr.. Bryan nor his mental
method of finding real JOY and salts
faction in things that would depress
the average man. He can not, of
course, become highly enthusiastic
over such evidences of depression i'm
w~age-earning and industrial circles so
long as they are isolated and while the
general trend is toward betterment in
conditions. Nothing short of a COM
plete industrial panic would make him
feel that his predictions had been fully
indicated and the indications are that
he will not be wholly happy for a long
time to m
Mr.. Bryan should not be discour-
aged, The season is in it's infancy yet
and there is no telling what his old
friends, the boil weeyil, the chinch
bug. rust, hog cholera, sheep seal and
pip in the poultry yard, may do toward
creating misery, woe, poverty and po-
litical discomfort among the prosper
Gus and happy American farmers.
Most OF us would look upon a crop
failure as a calamity, but it would APP
parently cause Mr.. Bryan. the advance
agent of adversely, to chuckle and
spread the glad tidings In big type.
