BOOST RATES OR CUT WAGES.

Unless the railroads of the country
charge higher rates for carrying freight
the employees wages will have to be cut,
according to arguments put forth by
speakers at a meeting of the New Eng
land members of the American Railroad
Employees and Investors association at
Worcester, Mass.
For % years." said P. H. Morrissey,
president of the association, the
changes in class rates have been very
slight, while the value o, almost every
commodity has increased. The railroads
have found it necessary, again and again
to increase wages If the roads are not
allowed to raise their freight rates it
cannot but be felt in other ways"
Timothy E. Byrnes, vice-president of
the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford railroad, declared that rates must
be raised if present wages are to con-
tinue.
The great dividends that have been
made public by the railroads does not
sustain this position.

THE STRENGTH OF SIMPLICITY.
(By the Rev. Charles stelzle.)

(By the Rev. Charles Stelzle)
Every mechanic knows that the best
machine and the strongest is the one
built on simplest lines and having the
fewest parts. It's not so likely to get
out of order. The bank note which is
most difficult to counterfeit is the one
with the fewest lines. The greatest men
and women in the world are the simplest
men and women in their tastes and man
ners. The novice in literature will in
variably use involved language. The
most famous writer's use the simplest
language. The worlds best orators use
words of one syllable, wherever possible.
Their illustrations are taken from the
common things of life. The greatest
books in the English world are written
in the plainest Anglo-Saxon.
Simplicity is the elimination of all I'M
necessary things in life. Life becomes
most beautiful when we can brush aside
trivial cares and worries and say: "They
do not count. They are not the real
things. They are the Interruptions. y
Women worry about elaborate home fur
nishings-the fancy things which collect
dust and worry the housekeper to death.
Simplicity in eating saves from dyspep-
sia and its attendant worries. Simple
ity is restful contempt for the non-essen-
tials in life. Therefore, If you would be
cured of worry, cultivate simplicity
manner. in dress, in thought. Simplicity
is not weakness or ignorance. 1t is
strength and knowledge and wisdom. 1t
means that the individual has seen the
folly and the nothingness of those things
which make up the sum of the life of
others.

Fielder ADDRESSES ASSEMBLY.

C. NJ Fielder, organizer for the Jour

in Denver and made short address to
the delegates of the Denver Trades AS
sembly Sunday, causing them to sit up
and take notice of what he was saying.
Mr.. Fielder has spent great many mont
Mr.. Fielder has spent great many months
on the Pacific coast, at Los Angeles, and
was assisting in the general fight for just
treatment in that city. Mr.. Fielder has
had a rope around his neck; he was ar
rested for blowing up the Los Angeles
Times, and he has been in jail no less
than II times. His wife has been taken
before the district attorney and subjected
to the sweating system to force informa-
ton from her that she did not possess.
The Shiny scalps of men killed in the
Times explosion were laid on table in
front OF her and she was told that Mr..
Fielder had confessed to the horrible
deed Mr.. Fielder is one of the live wires
in the labor world. hence his ruin is
sought by the system. He will remain
in the city a few days.

coNsrlTuTloNALlTY OF INITIATIVE

Probably the most important case
which has recently come to the United
States supreme court is that from Ore
gon, entitled: "The Pacific States Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company VS.. The
State of Oregon
This is the case which involves the
constitutionality of laws enacted by the
initiative. An adverse decision would be
a direct blow to popular government.
The contention of the company is that
the constitution of the United States
guarantees to every state republican"
form of government. The appeal is based
on bubble as to the use of the word
republican" the corporation lawyers
claiming that state which mas the ini-
tiative and referendum does not have
republican form of government. The pro-
ceedings of the constitutional convention
will be quoted by the friends of popular
government as throwing light on this
question.
OF course, what the men who made the
constitution meant by republican form
of government" was form of govern
ment where the political power was
vested in the people, as distinguished
from a monarchial form of government
where the power is vested in king or
aristocracy.

Brotherhoods and Boilermakers Force
Senate to Pass Their Bill.

Washington, D. C.-The senate, moved
by the pressure of the railroad brother
hoods, has passed the locomotive boiler
inspection bill. The measure is now in
the hands of the house committee on
interstate and foreign commerce, where
Mann, the chairman. has already prom
ised its passage.
In the house, Representative Martin,
of Colorado, himself a locomotive fire.
man with paid-up card in his organiza-
tion, has charge of the fight for the bill.
MANY a time" said Martin, speaking of
rotten boilers, when 1 opened the door
to put in coal l took my life in my
hands"
The continued exposures of the scan
dalous conditions of their rolling stock
by union representatives in the various
committee hearings, at last drove the
railroads to despairingly give in and the
government inspection of locomotive
boilers will, undoubtedly. become law be-
fore the end of this session.
