Haardt Makes Cotton Picker.

Local man invents apparatus
that picks. staple, gins it, bales
it and separates seed.
After eight years of hard
thinking and figuring. George p.
Haardt has perfected and put in
to operation the only machine
that will pick cotton, clean cot
ton, gin cotton and bale cotton at
the same time. Although in its
most crude form, the picker has,
in the several demonstrations
given by Mr.. Haardt shown that
the day of the human cotton pick
er is over.
The picker, ginner and baler
is run by a water cooled engine.
The apparatus has six lengths of
hose attached to it. The cotton
is sucked from the boil by air,
taken through cleaner, where
the dirt is sifted out. 1t is then
carried into the hopper and feed
err, going into the gin. From the
gin it goes to the brush; from
the brush to the condenser, and
is then put on the roll for bal
ing.

today Christianity actually ranks as
the third religion in the Flowery
Kingdom.
But Japan never gave itself over so
much to ancestor worship as did
Korea. The upper classes in Korea
seized upon this, but the popular re-
ligion, that adopted and generally
practiced by the lower strata in Korea,
is known as Shamsnistic, characterized
by sorcery and animal worship and
various other forms of superstition.
Christianity, which entered the Hermit
Kingdom in 1875 through the Jesuit
missionaries, has not made as great
advancement as in japan.
When we learn, however, that the
Japanese, too, have sent special ENJOYS
TO the various tombs of dynastic lords
with the news of Korea's annexation
we can understand that with all the

Buddha still has some power left in

The Scholar in Politics.

DR.. Woodrow Wilson, the distin-
guished president of Princeton univer-
sity, whom the democrats of New Jer-
sey have nominated for governor,
gives a hint of what is to be ex-
pected of the scholar in politics" in
declaring that 1.-The playing of politics
is to be deprecated" He will find a
hearty response to his sentiments from
large proportion of good citizens,
but he will also find many ready to
doubt his ability to readjust the rules
of the game SO as to prevent this
playing of politics" forthwith. 1t is
something that will require much time
even for efforts as efficient as his.
DR.. Wilson is yet to make the race
for governor. Doubtless at some angle
in his campaign he will rub elbows
with the practical politician. 1t will
be very strange if some of his mana
gers and helpers are not practical pol
iticans. If so, then Dr. Wilson will
at once have the opportunity of elimi-
mating the playing of politics in his
behalf. No one doubts his sincerity
When he says he deprecates the play
ing of politics, the country accepts his
word and believes that he does. But
that is very different from believing
in the ability of DR.. Wilson to put his
theories into operation without great
difficulty and much time.
OF course, the doctor was not very
specific in what he meant by playing
politics. 1t may be his definition is
wide enough to include some very use
full politics, but If he should be elected
governor Of New Jersey it probably
will be because some astute politicians
in his party have outplayed some as
tute politicians in the republican party
at the great game of politics, and, how
Fever innocent DR.. Wilson may be of
the playing, he will be the beneficiary,
just the same. Then after he gets
into Office 1t will remain TO be seen
whether he can succeed in revising
! INC iuies VI Ihe game 30 LhAI IL may
be played more nearly in accordance
with his ideals.
Certainly politics and public Office
offer field of useful occupation to the
high-minded scholar. such as DR.. Will
son is, and should he succeed at the
polls a great deal will be expected OF
him, for he has not been slow to offer
suggestions for definite improvement
in our mode of government, both state
and national.

London's Tipless Hotel.

London a year ago introduced the
novelty of hotel where tips of every
kind were prohibited. 1t still oper-
ates with every room occupied and its
dining halls filed. 1t is a complete
success financially. That, we under
stand, is what hotels are conducted
for. Then in this case, at least, the
elimination of the tip seems to be both
safe and profitable. Evidently it is
possible to get all the help" neces-
sary to keep the institution going.
Yet, Englishmen, Americans--peo-
pie everywhere-are asking IL hotels
and cafes could be conducted without
the tipping system. They could and
will whenever their proprietors and
patrons get rid of a certain species of
vanity. The tip represents graft on
the one hand and vanity or, perhaps,
cowardice, on the other. 1t would
have more TO commend It IL 1t was
given for extra service, or for special
privilege. But, as a rule, it is not.
1t is given simply because it is the Gus
tom. The average man knows very
well that in the average cafe he does
not leave his small change on the ia
BILE because he has been excellently
served; he leaves it there because the
man before him did and because he
would be shabbily regarded If he did
not The fact that he cannot afford
1t does not enter into consideration,
any more than does the fact that he
probably has already paid more for the
meal than it was worth.
And still, the patron alone can
never extricate himself from the
clutches of this pernicious evil without
the aid of the proprietor, and so long
as the patron will help the proprietor
pay his help in this cheap way, the
aid" is not going to be rendered by
the proprietor. 1t is the same on din.

Success or Failure .

Word comes from Kentucky that a
colony of Shakers ia about to go out of
existence. It's affairs will be wound
up, its property holdings distributed
and another experiment in ideal COM
munal life will have been brought to a
close. Whether it is to, be considered
success or a failure depends entirely
on the viewpoint
If 1t be taken merely as an effort to
establish an ideal life it will probably
be regarded as a failure. In this re-
spect 1t has proven that humanity is
not yet READY to accept the doctrine of
service to others as it's code. Service
to self is still the dominant note in
mans life, no matter how prettily il
may be disguised. This element of
human selfishness has been the great
obstacle in the way OF mans reforms.
Until human nature can be changed so
that the Golden Rule will operate au-
tomatically there is little hope for
success of endeavors such as this put
forth by the Shakers.
If, however, the Shaker colony is to
be considered from the point of mere
material gain 1t has proven successful
beyond doubt. The simple-minded
men and women associated together
for a common purpose have shown
what great results in the way Of de-
veloping property and accommodating
wealth may flow from cooperation.
The world did not need this additional
proof OF thoroughly established
maxim, and so the service rendered in
this regard has small value.
The Shakers go out of existence be-
cause the colony lacked the quality of
self-perpetuation. II was founded, as
have been many other similar organ
izations. On a very narrow religious
creed whose limitations withheld it,
members from communication with
the world and prevented them from
taking part In the general progress OF
humanity. 1t was this that eliminated
the chance of life to the community
because the sect could not attrac
enough membership to overcome tn,
inroads OF death, and thus insure III
perpetuity. Even the Dunkard com
munities. where marriage is permit

Diet and Great Men

We are not here to hold a brief for
Boston or it's baked beans and mince
pie, but we propose to take issue with
DR.. Fenton B. Turck of Chicago, who,
at the meeting of the Mississippi VAL
ley Medical association in Detroit, has
held up the Turks as superior in manly
force to our own cultured, bean-fed
Bostonians. 1t is an aspersion on the
Alpha and Omega of American man
hood and a vicious and wanton assault
on mans most natural and nutritious
food. One might suspect that DR..
Turck had been twitted about his
name and took this means of getting
back. But he should not be allowed
to escape the penalty of derision even
for that.
No man may with impunity stand
before an American assemblage and
hold up the sleek, olive oil-drenched
son of the sultan as superior either in
intellect or physical force to native
Bostonians. The list of intellectual
giants is too long and too well known
to repeat here, but let us simply re-
mind this pragmatic doctor that the
Hon. John l.. Sullivan was born and
reared in Boston. We fancy, il cor

his comparison on a physical basis.

Menaoe Of the Muckrak..


Francis j. Heney stated in a speech
at the recent conservation congress
that James J. Hill, through his Great
Northern railroad, had profted enor-
mously at the hands OF the govern
ment, explaining:
We Eavel to Mr. Hill COCOON acres Of
land, 1900 miles long, forty miles in width,
through territories and twenty miles wide
through states. This was worth $40 an
acre.
II was not necessary for Mr.. Hill to
make bis denial of the whole state
ment and declare that the Great
Northern never received one dollar or
one acre OF land from the general gov
ernment," for people who, are in
formed of the facts as they are
recorded in history know that this is
true. They know that the Great
Northern is distinguished among
transcontinental lines as one that
never obtained a penny in land grant
or subsidy from the government, and
the astonishing fact is that Mr.. Heney,
man whose fame rests chiefly upon
his career as the prosecutor OF land
grafters in the great northwest ira
versed by Mr. Hills railroads, should
not have known this. 1t almost
passes comprehension.
Mr. Heney, however, has admitted
his error and his only excuse is that
he read a certain magazine too closely,
OF course, this is no excuse. A man
OF MIR. Heney's reputation and influ-
ence certainly ought to be more solicit
tous as to the facts before he makes
such a statement in the presence of
such gathering as that at st. Paul.
His careessness might impugn his
motives.
But the point of this whole thing is
the utter indifference, the reckless dis
regard of truth and facts, even of mat

A Practical School Lesson.

Now that school has got fairly Well
under way and the pupils know where
their seats and books and lessons are,
we want to suggest to them this one
thought: Learn to crowd your work,
never let it crowd you.
Work is poorly done when it must
be done in part time. Unless you get
today's lessons today, you may never
get them, for tomorrow you have to-
morrow's lessons and failing to get to-
days not only makes them harder for
you to catch up with, but places you
at a great disadvantage in getting to.
morrews, for one is but continuation
of the other.
Unless you are master of your work
it will master YOU, and then you are
in grave danger of failing. The ma
jority of failures in school are due, not
to mental deficiency, but rather to
mental laziness or indifference or care
lessness. The boy or girl who attends
school regularly and studies regularly
is likely to get along fairly well in his
or her lessons, but the great difficulty
is that too many boys and girls do not
observe this routine. They allow play or
something else beside their classroom
work, to divert their minds and the re-
suit is they make school a hard task
to be performed, whereas they should
make 1t a work of love to be desired.
Teachers know all this, but teachers
have a hard time impressing it some
times on their pupils minds for the
very reason that too many parents
either have never given it a thought,
or thinking, have not taken the time
to help the teacher impress it on the
child. Parents should make it their
business to make the child see that the
business of the school season is schoo,
and not play, that play is simply a
diversion during that period.

Present Unrest.

Cardinal Gibbons is right in con-
tending that extravaganza plays large
part in the social unrest of the present
day He is right in declaring that
many people are living beyond their
means and would be both happier and
more contented If they did not. He
is also right in saying that much of
what is called pleasure and comfort
could well be sacrificed to the better
end of sober industry and patient sim
plicity.
But this spirit of unrest when ap-
piled to industry, when applied to the
relations between employer and en-
ploye, is totally different thing, ana
1t is not in itself an evil thing No
one needs to be told inat the spirit of
social discomfort is today, has always
been, one of the leavens of civiliza-
ton; one of the greatest influences
for the promotion of industrial peace
and prosperity. While we are curb
ing our appetites ana educating our
selves to live more in accordance with
our circumstances, We may well afford
to nourish this spirit of unrest or dis
content to legitimate degrees in the
sphere of labor and industry. 1t is not
time yet to undertake to stihe that
spirit Neither the employer nor the
employee could afford it. So long as
industry depends so largely upon the
well-directed skill of the intelligent
workman, so long must the spirit of
unrest survive. 1t will be a bad day
for industry when labor reaches the
goal of complete satisfaction, when it
sees or desires no means of advance
ment. We may well hope to be spared
from such time. We do not believe
it will ever come, certainly not so long
as many of the greatest economic ben
efits can be ascribed to this spirit oil
unrest.
But unrest must not mean lack OF
control; it must never approach tn,
/ form of anarchy To do the good
work that it has done 1t must rest
upon an honest purpose of mutual ag
grandizement between employer anC
employe. For that reason it must be
held within proper restrictions.
