Beveridge Expressions.

The watchword of our mutual
peace. prosperity and power is broth
erhood.
One characteristic of progressive re-
publicanism is that it puts country
and humanity before party or per-
son.
Progressive republicans fight for
definite ideas of human welfare. so
lied greed.
The whole present tendency of the
so-called democratic organization is
reactionary-look at Taggar in Indi-
ana and Murphy in New York and the
dark influences behind them.
We propose to save the farmers
prosperity and decrease the cost of
living by aust and honest tariff
builded on the facts. and by prevent
ing over-capita1ization of railroads.
As a human being. the workingman
cannot be treated like a mere COM
modify. to be used only for his efhci-
ency, regardless of what the laborer
gets out of life and r~egardful only Of
the work that can be gotten out Of
him.
The national eight-hour law must
be extended SO as to cover work done
for the government, directly or indi-
/ rectly. so far as national law can
cover 1t.
Men whose sole strength and entire
time are taken by toll have not a fair
chance to develop that citizenship
which is the nations hope and saliva
ton.
Satisfied laborers do better work
than those in who's breasts burn the
fire of resentment.
The idea of the laborer as a human
being, carried out in laws and con-
duct, will solve thel Dor problem.
Scientific experiments in Germany
last year proved that the factory la
borer produced more in an eight-hour
work day han in a 10-hour work day.
The railroads fought the employers

was a good thing even for them.
y
All of the noble laws for labor pass
ed in the last ten years were opposed
and fought. covertly or o~utspokenly. by
r-eactionaries of both parties.
The next Immediate reform in the
interest of justice to labor is the end
ing of the possibility of the abuse OF
~injunctions in labor disputes.
Child labor must be abolished
wherever floats the American flag.
Hundreds of thousands of little
American children are having theil
lives crushed out of them by precisely
the same kind of unspeakable toll tina
destroyed English children a century
age. FL
There is something wrong about al
industrial system that permits suci
~inhumanity.
Since 1 began my light against tn.
infamy Child labor my chief supper
has come from organized labor and thu
good women of the country.
Gigantic interests will do anything
and everything to defeat the law ant
the men and women who are fighting
for it; they are doing everything RICH
now to defeat me for reelection t,

All the American laborer asks is tina
our tariffs shall be honestly and &C
%curately measured by the difference be
tween his wages and foreign wages.
If a democratic candidate asks yol
to believe that immoral rates in GU

ask him why democrats made no rea

THE LEGISLATURE.
SECOND WEEK-BlLLs INTRODUCED-sOnE
OF THE MEN WHO ARE TAKING GOOD.

Reported for THE HERALD by Colby stoddard.
They say that a watched pot never
bois but this one is beginning to sim
mer somewhat. The Revision Commit
tee after having conducted still hunt
for several days have at last found a
competent Clerk in the person of Wal
ter A. Duttou of Hardwick. A few bills
have found their way through the Re-
vision Committee to the floor of the
House and Senate and have been intro.
duced but they are in such crude form
that no great progress has been made
toward their passage. The bill provid-
ing for the rebuilding of the County
Buildings at Hyde Park was passed
quickly by the House. Mr.. Page of
Hyde Park, son of the Senator, moved
that the rules of the house be suspended
and that the bill be put upon its pass
age without being referred to any COM
mittee. This was done. The bill met
temporary check in the Senate when
Senator Pike of Lamoille asked like
privileges for the bill. The objection
was not raised because of any lack of
merit in the bill but because some of
the Senators did not like to start the
session by suspending rules and rushing
any bill through. The bill was at once
referred to the proper committee and
the bill has been reported favorably and
become law. The buildings may cost
100000 besides what insurance money
the County received from the buildings
which were burned. The matter is in
charge of A. A. Pike, F. q. Fleetwood,
r. w. Hurlburd, N. p. Mower and
Daniel Walker.

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you
II you can trust yourself when all men doubt
But make allowance for their doubling too
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting
or being lied about don't deal in lies
Or being hated don't give way to hating
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream-and not make dreams Your
master;
If you can think-and not make thoughts
your aim.
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same,
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make trap for fools,
or watch the things you gave your life to,
broken,
If you can make one heap of all your winning S
And risk it on one turn of pitch-andtoss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and
sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in YOU
Except the will which says to them Hold
on !"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your
virtue,
Or walk with Kings-nor lose the common
touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you
If all men count with you but none too much
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And-which is more-you',l be a Man my son

only government on earth that collects

The volcanic beacon is about eight
miles inland from the port of Acajutla
and its pillar of cloud by day and its
fire sky night are visible for many
miles out at sea. 1t erupts every seven
minutes and is just as accurate as any
revolving light that warns mariners in
any part Of the world. This volcano
has been keeping up this seven min

one can remember. 1t is favorite

Every vessel that puts in at AGA

Of call along that part of the coast
has to pay Its lighthouse fee. There Is
no other lighthouse than the volcano,
but that is sufficient excuse for the
government Of Salvador to make a
charge for Its services. The explosions
that accompany the eruptions sound
like detonations Of heavy charges of
dynamite, but are not sufficient to
shake the ground perceptibly more
than a mile or two from the summit of
the crater. At night there is a squirt of
fire. muffled report and a cloud of
steam. BY day only the steam is Wis.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle once walked

pressed by the desolate appearance of
the lonely looking Schwarenbach inn.
Here, 1t seemed to him, was an ideal
scene In which novelist might locate
story of mystery and crime
He proceeded to invent story of
mystery and crime suitable to the
creepy environment. 1t was story of
murder-the murder of long lost son
just home from the wars by his own
father. the needy innkeeper, who did
not recognize him until after the deed
was done, but had resolved to kill and
rob the first lonely stranger that
passed that way with money in his
pocket.
"The very thing" thought Sir Ar
thur. and he went down the hill cheer
fully revolving the morbid conception
In his mind. Then a strange thing hap
