THE BRIGHT NEW YEAR

Milwaukee Sentinel: The year 1910
dawned very much as its many prede-
cessors have dawned. There will be
the same old regrets at the failures of
the past. There will be the same heroic
resolutions of better conduct and great
er achievements. Most of these reso-
lutions will be kept for few days,
possibly weeks, then broken and for
gotten and the old world will go on
much the same as it has been going for
generations past.
But the people of America have a
right to enter upon the new year with
good cheer and happy hearts. Condi-
tions are not ideal, it may be granted,
in any realm of life; and yet what land
has brighter prospect than this country
faces today? Where are the good
things of life more plentiful and more
easily obtained? Where ere the oppor-
tunities more numerous and more splen-
did; where is liberty more thoroughly
enjoyed by all classes than right here
in rich, prosperous. freedom loving Am
erica as this new year of 1910 dawns
upon us?
Commercially, the new year looks to-
ward smiling skies. All signs point to
year of unsurpassed material pros
perity. Social conditions are in the way
of increased improvements. More ear
nest thought and study will be given
by more people to the great social prob
lens of our time than in any previous
year of history. The great causes of
education, philanthropy and religion
have reason to look to the new year
with hopefullness and courage. They
never were as strongly entrenched, as
brilliantly led, as well equipped as they
will be in 1910.
Successes and failures, joys and sor-
rows, prosperity and adversely will fill
up the calendar of 1910 us of other
years. But the man who wants to sue
coed, and the cause that has a right to
live and flourish, has better chance in
1910 and in free America than ever.
Therefore, happy New Year to all,
and may the years laurels of victory
rest upon the brow of him who has
earned the right to win and wear them.

Methodlsts of the United States held
a special watch-night service on Fri
day, to welcome the new year. II was
the 125th anniversary of the founding
of Methodism in America, and was made
much of. The statistics are that there
are S,75O,00 commandments in this
church in that country. A most formid-
able army of Christian observers.

II. Brooks. geologist In charge Of the
Alaska work of the United States geo
logical survey. who has just returned
to Washington from his annual Swing
around the circle" in the far north
west. While dry weather and other
unfavorable conditions have curtailed
the placer gold production at Nome.
most OF the other camps have either
maintained or increased their output.
Figures of gold output are not yet
available. but 1t seems probable that
the production for 1909 will be be
tween nineteen and twenty million
dollars The Low price of copper has
not encouraged mining of that metal
but about half dozen properties ship

the year will exceed 100000 pounds"

nuttered Bread With His Thumb.

0dAACTNd eau WIN TITS
Cats meat is the only survival of a
way of serving meat that prevailed In
this country before the introduction
OF forks. for it was the custom in
medieval times to serve roast meat on
spit and to pass 1t around the table
for each guest TO cut off what he
liked, a method that did not allow one
person only to secure the carvers tit
bits. In France one still finds chicken
livers and bacon served on small srits.
aud TO the Britisher it always suggests
ut first sight the food of the domestic
cat. 1t is probable that many people
continued to prefer fingers TO table
utensils, even after these were perfect
ed and in general use, Tor knives were
certainly invented at the period when

WHY RAILROADS
WILL BAR WOMEN

NEW YORK, April 11-Rumors that
the railroads of the country will hire
no moro women as stenographers.
clerks ore telceraphers are being dis
cussed guardedly by railroad execu-
tives here. None of them is desrous
of a clash with the women's Industrial
unions, the militant sumragettes or
other belgerent organizations.
Accordingly those executives who
would tank did not wish 10 be quoted
over their own names. but in substance
the situation. asrthey analyze it, Is
about as follows:
Railroads nowadays are spending
s5OO,ooO year to educate employees FOR
responsible positions. These positions
and the training that hts employees for
them are such that no woman is ply
sically able To take them. no dis
elimination against women exists, but
above a certain capacity the railroads
find that the hope of the future is in
the young men,"
