"Eat, Drink, anG Be Merry"

DR.. Charles w. Elliot's Endorsement
of the so-called animal pleasures
as not unworty of the highest animal
man. will excite interest as the lib
eral philosophy of q public teacher
whose life has been passed in intel
lectual pursuits. "Progress is meas
ured by happiness, not by dollars and
cents" says the former president OF
Harvard, and of means towards happi-
ness he says:
"Sensuous pleasures, like eating and
drinking, are sometimes described az
animal, and therefore unworthy, but
men are animals and have right TO
enjoy without reproach those pleas
ures of animal existence which main
tain health strength, and life itself.
These pleasures, taken naturally and
in moderation, are all pure, honor
able. and wholesome"
This is a far departure from the
Puritan rule of conduct under which
the repression of physical desire was
the first duty. OF man. 1t amounts
TO a restatement of the old eat,
drink, and be merry" creea, and DR.
Elliot will no doubt be accused of ad-
yocating epicureanism.
Yet is not epicureanism, whatever
moralists may think of il. the prevail
ing philosophy of modern life? This
is no age of asceticism. Men con
tinue in decreasing numbers, to mort
fy the flesh for the spirits sake. Bui
the common run of men finds that
the man who enjoys his dinner and
his cigar is the efficient man and the
well-fed nation the efficient nation
Much of the oiium has been removed
from the heshpots.
The theory no longer generally oh
fains that the possession by man of Q
soul which differentiates him from
ether animals obligatcs him to pursu,
the life OF an anchorite and TO repress
the animal instincts as sinful.

preachers are loud in their denuncia-
ton of this 'un-Christian attitude" The
color line was drawn in the Sunday
school convention for the same reason
that II Is drawn in every community
and assemblage where those in
authority act advisedly. Perhaps such
people as the protesting Boston
preachers never will learn that God
Almighty so created the negro and
the white man that there can be no
social intercourse between the two,
even in the churches. But everyone
whose opinion is worth while knows
this is fact, so what's the use wor-
rying about the Boston preachers?

WHY INSURANCE RATES ARE Ex

dCESSiNE.
Just at this time Newport News
people are satisfied that no other
community in the country has greater
cause for complaint against excessive
fire. insurance gates than this one. And
they have good reason for this belief
as everybody who reads the news
papers or has insurance premiums
to pay must know However, We are
not the only people afflicted with ex-
oabitant rates for insurance. Prscti-
cxIly the entire country is in nearly
the same fix, and conditions IN the
Sorth appear to be just a little bit
worse than in other sections.
The nature of ne insurance b''si-
ness has made IL possible for parties
engaged in it to do openly and de-
family things which those making
money along other lines would dare
attempt only in secret. Since time
immemorial the insurance people
have told us that competition in their
business cannot be carried on without
danger to the companies and to the
iusuring public. Aud as there Is some
foundation for this contention, the
public, forgetting that conspiracies &c
control prices are inimicsl to the pun

violation of a principle Of the com
mon law, has swallowed whole che
plausible stories of the underwriters
