MoNoPoLYs INQUIRY.

An attorney representing the Stand ard Oil company, in an argument be- fore the supreme court of the United States. delivered himself of this pero- ration:
 '.But they complain that with our enormous amount of wealth we drove oar competitors out of business Are you going to conduct business on the racstrzck principle and put 9 handicap on the man who possesses wealth? Are you going 70 taboo wealth 2''
 4 keen editor, taking this up, re- joins:
 Indeed not. We are trying to ta- boo poverty and our object Is to re- moves handicaps, not to make them. That is the point in a nutshell.
 The Standard Oil company has r1sed it's vast resources to handicap every ether dealer in oil and in the by-products of oil The supreme court is asked to relieve the inde- pendent oil dealer of that handicap. In reply, the Standard Oil company wants to know if it is to be handicap ned, as it has for years been handi- cappiug it's competitors.
 The answer is simply this: The race must hereafter be run fairly with no handicaps for any runner. That is ? IS much as the Standard Oil company can expect, and fully as much as it deserves''

A DISEASE, NOT A HABIT.

Arthur + Zimmerman, alias Baron von Lichtenstein, who was accused of marrying twenty-four women, has been sent to prison for four and a
 half years as a perjurer- When he was extradited from Canada, the charge against him upon the papers was perjury and under the interna- tional code he could be tried for no other offence. Zimmerman was a mercenary swind1er of women and he was so artfu1 about it that he is said to have married and swindled one 8 month during the whole of 1909. In addressing him as a bfgamist, the judge took occasion to say that mar riage with him was a disease, not a
 habit.
 Zimmerman did not feel grateful to escape so easily and went to Sing Sing angry with court and counsel. An exchange, referring to the affair, says:
 Leaving criminal law out of con- sideration, the man who has twenty four women, each on his track, with a wedding ring showing on one hand and a marriage license on the other, is not to be envied by his fellow nor tals Sing Sing furnishes a complete protection Not one of his victims can invade that refuge. Taking ev- erything into account Zimnern.an is rather a lucky Tbigamist.''
 He may see it in the same light when he has been incarcerated long enough to become less moody and more rational.

ONLY TODAY.

The optimists of these times regard today as the only day that is. The yesterdays are dead todays; and the tomorrows are simply todays unborn. That now is the spring of energy and that today marks it's full compass; and that in this concentration Of mind and effort. in each days merry activity, Is locked the secret of eternaI youth. That we who do not take this view of life and what goes with it, are 70 years old, while those who do are 70 years young. That sounds like folde- rol to the old-fashioned woman and like sense to the new-fashioned man. We do not know what to think of it, of course; but we are told if we think right about it that we have learned how to grow old gracefully, which is 6 way Of saying we do not show age at all If we look out not to live in experience, but for it, we make no note of time, but just reveI in what Is known as the eternal now! This is what gives 70 the thrill of IT and makes youth perpetual. That which is, with these optinists. is the only thing to deal with-today is the one day in all eternity. This is the latest recipe for becoming 70 years young, but it does not appear on casual observation to hold so much.

WHERE ECONOMY IS PRAcTicED

The rural free delivery is the great est thing for the price known to the postofIice department. There would be no deficits if all parts of this great system were so thoroughly minimized. There is no rush for carriers berths when it is known that they drive cir cult of from "A to 26 miles Q day, fur nish their own horses and equipm ent at an average price of a penny or two over a dollar a day. What a rain or shine price that Is for an abie-bodied horse and a man who are permitted to skip Sundays and national holi- days. It has to Joe conceded that a faithful public seE4ant who has him self and family and two horses to support on $31.50 a month wall find some difficulty in laying something aside against a rainy day. Where economy rohs merit of it's deserts it is in its poorest form. The free rural delivery service has come to stay. for it has found an abiding place in the good will of the people, and it should stay in responsibility. The endeavor being made to have the carriers paid more money is worthy of general sup port. Let's make parcel carriers of them all, thus greatly facilitating bus mess and laying the foundations for their ample reward.

SUNDAY MORNING TALK
THE LIFTED HORIZON.

The horizon line marks for us the limit of physical sight By ascendtrg g a hill we may see 9 little further than we could in the valley, but even point where sky and earth seem to meet Beyond that dividing line may be smiling fields, lovely cathedrals, happy homes, palaces, castles. forums and busy marts of trade, but so far as our physical sight is concerned they are to as if they were not.
 Our human years are apparently bounded by f1aetuating but real hori- zon line. On the hither side of it are all our pleasant activities, our joy ous human companionships. the splen- dors of the world about us, the rich, variegated life of our fellow men. On the farther side is the great enigma, the great perhaps, the to us undis- covered and unexpiored country. From time to time some one of our fellow travellers crosses this horizon line and disappears entirely from our view. Where he is and how he Is faring is to us a matter of conjecture. We hope, we Yearn, but the horizon line never lifts. Never? Can we say never on Easter Sunday when the whole world is singing praises to one who crossed and recrossed the hne who passes, as he wills today, from one realm to the other2 No, indeed. The heart of our Fla ster faith is the assurance that the wonderful being who lived in Paies- tine for 30 years 19 centuries ago did cross the line into the world of spirit and returned to manifest himself for a time to their outward senses of his disciples. Then when he had fuIly con vinced them of his continued existence, of his complete triumph over death, he withdrew from their physical ken only to establish forever a spiritual relation between them and himself.
 How the horizon broadened and lift ed for them during those memorable 40 days and for all the remaining days of their livesi Instead of an existence bounded by the duration of their physi- cal powers they saw a Iimitless life stretching on and on into the countless ages of eternity By that same lifting of the horizon they were made aware of the continued existence of those who

Ocean Travel.

The Mauretania has arrived and cut the record time 28 minutes. Crossing the Atlantic has reached a condition similar to the tug of war when each side has. pulled the last pound and the taut rope moves almost n1icroscopical- ly. Months were once spent in the voyage, then weeks, finally days and or minutes. The romance of voyage to Europe has gone as the time has been cut down. There is no thought now of danger. One goes to sea in a large floating hotel and remains in communication with the land at all times The last bit of romance has been squeezed out and it is now a question of cutting minutes off the speed record. Complainers may sug- rate, but as a matter of fact there is no added danger in speed. There is always plenty of room at sea and all that is required to avoid danger is alert competent seamen in charge. About the only possible danger is q derelict, and a ship might make a hun dred voyages without being near enough to one of these movable dan gers to bring it in sight. It is possi- ble that the speed limit has been about reached and it is probable that ships have reached the maximum of size The cost of propulsion is a serious item, and the depth of harbor channels will hardly permit any greater draft by the ships. The big Cunarders are therefore likely to be the standards for many years; any change will most likely be in detail rather than in size or speed However, it is best not to be too sure even of that, in these marvefousIy progressive times.-New Haven Palladium.

had preceded Jesus into the other world as well as of the glory that awaited their companions even though some should be burned at the stake because they believed in and preached Jesus and the resurrection
 The immediate and most marked ef- feet upon these disciples was a great accession of joy and power. The same belief can work the same results for us We too are often oppressed by the ap- parently fnsuperable boundaries Of hu- man life. The night threatens to shut down before our work is half done. There is far too little time in which to love and serve our own. We are in a fever because we cannot read more of the new books and the old ones too. Some alluring field of research beck ons us but before we have begun to exhaust it the clock strikes. More painful still is the collection that to discipline and complete our characters, to smooth off the edges and round off the corners. to recover the ground lost through s1oth or neligence, to atone for our moral lapses, is a work that re- quires for it's doing more years than We can reasonably expect.
 The gospel of the lifted horizon changes all this. It teIls us that we have time enough, not indeed for idle ness or dissipation. but for aii the work God gives us to do. time Go learn all the things essential fer our peace and progress, time enough to serve our fei- iow-men day by day. time to commune with our God and ascertain more per- fect1y his willfor us.

AS VIEWED AT THE SOUTH.

According to a southern view of the present situation the victory of the insurgents is a bad thing for the east and a rather promising omen for the south The Charleston News and Courier says:
 The middle west has made it's dec- laration of Independence, and it has won the first battle in the war upon which it has entered. That war has for It's battle cry, Down with Can nonisIn!' Why? Because the middle west is opposed to the system per SC under which Cannonisrn has waxed powerful? Not at all. The trouble is that under the operations of that sys- tem the middle west has been unable to secure the legislation which it deemed essential to its interests he cause the ohgarchy in control has been representative of the special interests of the east. will the situation be changed under the new advancement (? IT so. what is the east going to do about 1t?
 The republican party now possess ses two distinct wings. At present although by np means of equal strength in themselves they are not wholly unequal because of the dem ecrztic support which the lesser is able to enf.st. The middle west and the south are now standing together ;,
 Doesn't this make you smile? The republican party has not gone to pieces, and there is no antagonism he tween New England and the middle west This is a case in which the wish is father Of the thought.
