The chief requirement for a
beautified home and table on Eas-
ter day is ingenuity. The Easter
lily, symbolic of all that is pure,
is now within reach of all. A few
pots of these, together with COM
mon house plants, are sufficient
decoration for yhe living room.
In the dining room large plate
can be the foundation for the CEN
terpiece. Moss and twigs may be
used to form nest, in which eggs
of various colors may lie. Two or
three downy little imitation chicks
or rabbits may rest on the edge of
the nest, and from the nest baby
ribbons in lavender and white may
cross to each corner of the table,
where they may be tied to little
chicks or rabbits.
Eggshells filled with candy and
tied with lavender ribbon may be
the favors at each plate. Dyed eggs
may be tied with baby ribbons and
hung from the chandelier.
1t would be nice to transfer the
flowers to the dining room at din

To the Editor of the Times:

Dear Sir: Please allow me a
little of your valuable space in an
swer to Brother Chaffee's letter of
recent date. You ask us to point
to passage where Jesus ever ask
ed or demanded any pay for any
work he performed. Please look
up Matt. 1910 and Luc. 1877.
Why Jesus drove the money
changers out of the temple you
will find explained by himself in
Matt. 21:13.
You do not think 1t possible to
live the life of the Golden Rule
under the present condition. If
you have read the history of the
martyrs, you have seen how they
suffered under the condition they
lived, and how they gave up all,
even life, for that which was
worth more than life to them.
A Christian will adjust himself
to any condition in this world be-
cause he is not of this world; he
belongs to a different system.
! am glad to notice that all our
great newspapers are for honesty
in public as well as in private life.
i believe the press voices the opin-
Ion of the majority of the people,
and ! believe we shall soon have
better times under better condi-
tions. If we, as the people, and the
press keep up an incessant fight
against all forms of graft. From
the man in the office down to the
fellow who is trying to beat the
street car company gu: of a nickel.
They are all in the same bunch,
to be exposed to the public gaze
so they can see themselves as 9TH
ers see them.
Let us do all the good we cal
for our enemies, but ! do not be-
lieye in voting for them.
Yours for the Golden Rule.

Editor or the Times:
Dear Sir-I noticed in your pa
per last evening that candidates
were asked II tell Why, and /
noticed H. ]. McGregor said that
he had done the work of four men
for two years, now he wants a
chance to do onc-fourth. / would
like to know why Mr.. McGregor
did not tell the people at the
Sixth Avenue Baptist church that
the Northern Pacific Railway
company wanted to see him elect
ed. That is what he told the men
at the South Tacoma shops last
Monday afternoon when one man
told him that he-was breaking
the company's rules by canyassing
votes during working hours. He
replied: That's all right; the
company wants to see me elected"
Now, Mr.. Editor, If that is what
the railway wants. l am sure it is
not what the people want.
Hoping you will find space in
your valuable paper for this, /
remain, A READER.

Tacoma, March 22. 1910.

Editor Times:
The history of the development
of man is largely written in thu
history of the development of the
tools with which he produces wha
is necessary to satisfy his physi
cal wants.
At one time the tool was an in
dividual tool, made and used b,
the individual. Production wa.
an individual art. Whether in the
small Workshop or on the farm
the workers worked by and fol
themselves.
In this primitive fashion they
were compelled to work early and
late to produce enough to satisfy
their own wants. Competition was
then the natural order. There
could have been no other. Every
man could compete upon practi-
cally equal terms with each other.
1t was properly said, Competition
is the life of trade" Then the
simple tool was transformed and
became a machine. The very char
aeter of the old tool marked 1t
for individual ownership. The
machine supplanted the hand tool
and a very great change took
place, the greatest in human his
tory.
The tool was socialized; produc-
ton was socialized: work was
divided and specialized, and this
has been going forward still until
the present day.
But the evolution is not yet com.
plete. While the tool and produc.
ton has been socialized, the own
ership of the socialized tool II
still vested in the individual, ant
we have socialized production O
wealth, by the mass of the work
ers on the one hand. and upon tn,
other the individually owned tool
That is why we have million
aires, and tramps, and grea
mass of impoverished worker
thirty days from starvation.
The socialists have formed
party In keeping with the tren.
of the evolution of Industrial con
ditions, and when the people vot,
that party into power 1t will elm
mate poverty and graft by social
izing the ownership of the tools
of production and distribution.
To cure pimples on the surface
the doctor administers blood medi-
cine, thereby striking the cause to
cure the effect. So 1t Is with the
socialist. He would strike at the
cause in our body polite to cure
the pimples Of graft and crime on
its surface.

Mrs. Williamson from the new la

home weeping, and Nathanson
smiled.
IN pull down his house about
his ears unless they admit you,"
he said; and furthermore he pub
lished this metaphor far and wide

bent upon revenge he usually said
nothing, and this alone ought to
have put Mcpherson upon his
guard. But Mcpherson took VI
the challenge, and they Joined is

At last the prospectus was is

field was a secret, it said, for OBJ

would be willing, at any time aft

repurchase them at their par

come dissatisfied. This was a
.gilt-edged security; Williamson
was practically guaranteeing in

Pherson rose to the bait. He pur-
chased secretly, and, when the
whole issue had been taken I'D,
found that he actually controlled

and went into the first board
