There has been so much criticism
loveled of late at men who shoot
at guides and other livestock while
deer hunting that they figured it
would be a fine scheme to run down
a deer, so all of them might take
good look at It. Then when the

Sunday saloons.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
1t seems queer to me that it became
necessary for Sheriff Harrigan to tell the
chief of police and the captains of the
different precincts to shut up the sa-
looms at the proper hour Saturday night
and to keep them closed on Sunday.
The STAR told about the conference
last week in the sherffs Office when
such directions were given.
Now the question is, Whose fault is
it?'' Is it the fault of the police alto
gether? 1t seems to me that some of
the saloonkeepers themselves are much
to blame, as some of them have the
habit of taking advantage of their COM
petitors and do things so much ION the
sly that even fairly widc-awake po-
liceman on the beat is beaten.

and have revealed Himself

done the same thing, and have revealed Himself
inwardly to every member of the human race.
How then, is it, that ever since the Christian
era, when, many of us admit a special reveia-
ton "ab extra" was made, and on since then, the
ideas of man as to his duty have undergone such
a thorough, radical change? The doctrine of
progress will not explain this for progress neces-
sarily implies tradition from man to man, and the
question then is: How is it if God reveals Him
self inwardly to everyone, and if such revelation
be the "highest" and the "only revelation posi-
ble," that men today entertain views of their du-
ties so very different from those held two thousand
years ago among the best and wisest men of the
ancient world? Does God reveal himself today
differently from what He did twenty centuries ago?
Our modern perception of great moral truths
such as the evils of negro slavery and the brother
hood of the human race, due neither to the
light of reason, nor to some personal revelation
which, of late years, God has made to everyone In
particular. Human reason, alone, cannot prove
the common origin brotherhood OF the white
and the negro races. Darwin would only insist
that both have been gradually developed from one
common protoplasm; the negroes being the more
imperfectly developed; the white being only some
degrees higher raised than the negro above the
stage of apes, and other quadrumanous mammels,
through which stages both of them have passed.
If God, now and always, revealed Himself to
every man, how came it that before the days of
Christ the best and wsest of pagan antiquity did
not see it, That even like Cato, esteemed
men who were slaves to other men, but as the
beasts of the field, to be sold cattle when they
began to get old and infirm. The light of the Son
of Righteousness whose ravs now illuminate the
entire world, and make plainly visible to all eyes,
truths which before its appearance above the hori
zon of Calvary obscure to the keenest-sighted
of mortals; this light, known to us as revelation.
can alone we maintain, explain to the brother
hood of the negro and the white the sin of slavery
and the origin of the human race.

PISA NOT FALLING.

Recent reports that the inclination of the lean
ing tower of Pisa had increased to an alarming
degree and that the famous pile was in danger of
falling, are discredited by Professor William IL.
Goodyear, curator of the fine arts museum of the
Brooklyn institute who says he has secured fresh
evidence that the tower is in no present danger of
collapsing The reports which stirred Italy and
the world generally Professor Goodyear says, were
based on inaccurate reading of the survey plates
made in 1929. The commission which examined
the tower recently has confessed that it
able to get the original surveys, and depended
upon a reprint made several years later, in which
there error in the computation. An earth
quake in 1916 is credited with responsibility for
increase in the inclination, and this was noted in
the survey of 1859. Proof is now offered that no
movement of the tower has taken place since that
year, consequently the entire present alarm is alb
solutely baseless"
Professor Goodyear says that very frequently
new publications are brought to his attention
concerning the alarming increase in the inclina-
ton of the tower, most of which are based on com
putations which leave nearly one-fourth of the
axial height of the tower entirely out. Aside from
such calamity earthquake he declares, the
tower is in danger of falling provided atten-
ton is paid to the proper drainage of the foun-
dations, which seems to have been entirely neg
lected up to the time of the italian government
commissions report. The old tower is one of the
few remaining landmarks which connect us with
the medieval ages and its preservation is of great
historical value The announcement that this
wonder of the world" is not in danger is satisfying

new crop could be had, they would die of starva-
ton, and dying of starvation is not as desirable
as the sefdenial which guarantees life. Of course,
times are different now and the cold storage plants
are very kind to gather up the surplus of summer
and dole it out to us in the productive seasons.
But even with this benefcent guaranty, the way to
prosperity and plenty lies not in disposing of the
profits of our labor to meet current expenses, but
in laying up surplus, no matter at what sacrifice.
Benjamin Idle Wheeler, president of the Uni
versity of California, after several months spent
in Europe, upon his return to America, remarked
upon what seemed to him as our very craze for
spending money. He said we seemed to be living
in all ways under forced draft, making the pres
sure as high as possible And President Wheeler
of all keen observers is along the same line. Our
magnificent country is capable of producing all
and more than we need in ordinary years, yet one
big failure of crops, with the burdens which we
have taken upon ourselves would inevitably pro-
duce a panic beside which the furry OF two years
ago the hard times of the early zoos would be
comparable only as a zephyr to whirlwind
Economy is essential to happiness in a great
many instances; it is the backbone of permanent
prosperity; it is the bulwark which the waves of
adversely cannot sweep away It is virtue lauded
by all the wise men and statesmen of all ages.
And certainly the time is ripe that we, Individually
and as a nation, should take heed should profit by
the wisdom of the wise men of the past and the
far-seeing men of the present.

LABOR AND WAGES.

man who works for wages often feels that
he is not receiving fair share of the value of his
production When number of men employed in
the same kind of work get that idea they organize
a union, ask for more wages, ard failing to get a
raise, quit their jobs If the supply of laborers is
large, their places are easily filed, but if the sup
ply is small, usually their request for more wages
is reluctantly granted.
Now it is an unassaiable proposition that labor
is entitled to a fair share of that which it pro-
duces. Undoubtedly there are industries
where labor gets more than fair share just as
there are industries in which labor gets less than
a fair share And that is also undoubtedly true of
the individual laborer engaged in any occupation,
whether skilled or unskilled In the controversies
between employer and employee, there is frequently
made demand for a fiat rate of pay for every
man engaged in the industry. Unskilled workers
insist that each man engaged receive the same
wage, and that is true of nearly all the skilled
trades. Tt doesn't make any difference if one man
is able to do % or so per cent than another,
and at the same time do better work, the workers
frequently make the egregious mistake of insist
ing on equal pay for ALL The effect of such an
rangement of course, is to put premium on in
competence and damper on enthusiastic endeavor.
Thus labor may get its just share but the indi-
vidual laborer does not. A uniform wage natural
ly causes the worker to hold his production down
to the production of his lessskilled co-workers He
is capable of more without much exertion, but if
he increased his output so per cent, he wouldn't
get any more money for his efforts, and his CO.
workers probably would lose their jobs for display
ing incompetence Or if he is paid to produce his
maximum of so per cent more than the average
his wages for that so per cent probably are only
10 per cent greater than those about him.
The obligation on the part of the employer to
pay fair wages, however, does not take from the
laborer the obligation to give full service. The
more he produces, the more right he has to lay
claim to a larger share of what is paid to labor
The more he shirks the less claim he has upon that
portion. And men do not get much for Sinking.
And just it is the right of the aborer to claim
portion of the thing he produces as his own, so
it is the obligation of capital to pay full value for
the service. But labor may not claim that right
and impose that obligation without honest rec
ignition that a right presupposes an obligation,
and obligation emphasizes a right.
Justice blindfolded, holds up the balance Just
wages demand full measure of service, and full
measure of service demands just wages. Labor,
collectively or individually may not ask more, and
capital-well, capital usually pays what it has to
to get its work done

ECONOMY.

Throughout the campaign which eliminated in
the election last Tuesday, we heard much of the
merits and dement's of "new nationalism," protec-
tive tariff free trade, insurgency progressiveness
graft, to say nothing of the local campaign, which
was, to say the least very trying one, but hardly
murmur of economy. Of course, where extrava-
gances was held up to the of the populace,
economy got a little whirl, but there was no cam
paign carried on in any of the states based upon
this one fundamental principle upon which our
wellbeing rests. And at Washington, the subject
came up in cabinet meetings, where it was decided
that retrenchment was to be the watchword dur
ing the remainder of the present national admin
istration. But economy as principle in public
and private affairs was lost in the political confu
sion and dispute of the campaign. Yet there can
hardly be two sides to the question of the necessity
of economy or retrenchment, nor as to its appli-
cation Individually, or publicly from the smallest
political subdivision to the nation
In the old days when men were compelled to
provide everything they ate and wore the necessity
of maintaining reserve supply was so emphatic
that no one needed to be told of it. If all their
products of the summer were consumed before a

REVELATION VS.. NATURAL RELIGION -

The Denver Post" in a well written article
of the 4th inst on the ''Rule of Evidence" pays
us the compliment of addressing us by name on
the very important subject of Revelation.
The editor "would fain believe" so he tells us,
Gin Revealed religion in the immortal soul of
man." but he cannot His belief is in a revelation
that is perpetual and personal, in a communion of
the Divine with the human mind always and not
contained gin words or dependent upon evidences"
He apparently scouts the idea of any revelation
from without, either by living Church or by dead
book, and relies onl y the inward revelation
which God makes to every in particular.
owe would believe that our Father who art in
heaven, comes to every man in proportion to his
purity of heart and his aspiration-and dwells
with him. And this indwelling of the Divine Spirit
in the hearts of men is the highest revelation;
there is no other possible revelation, for reYela
ton of God to any man, is revelation to him
alone, to all others it is a matter of evidence"
This, though virtually remuneration of Chris
tianity, considered as a supernatural revelation
is the only position that consistently be occu-
pied by those who deny the existence of an infall
bic Church as the medium by which the contents
of that revelation transmitted to us. 1t is, in
consequence, position occupied by many Protest
ants of high intellectual requirements and by those
whose natural virtues enforce our respect But
we repeat, it is position which can occupy,
and consistently call himself Christian.
He who holds to this argument is bound to ex-
plain how it is that such contradictory views of
God and of man, and of the duties of man, do OBJ
tain even at the present day, if one and the same
God has revealed Himself to all alike Either God
contradicts Himself in His Several personal" rev.
Citations, or this inner revelation is a very I'M
trustworthy guide to follow.
And if we contrast the modern, with the more
ancient world, it was before the days of Christ,
the difficulty presents itself with still greater
emphasis. For, if God today reveals Himself to
each individual in particular; and if He be indeed
the common Father of us all and not mere ca
PRECIOUS ruler, then, from all time must He have
