One Of Michigan's we'll known and
successful business men, r. II. Scott,
factory manager of the REQ Motor
Car company of Lansing, has recently
made known the result of his obserya-
tions and Investigations as to the loss
sustained by working men and their
employers through the saloon habit.
Mr.. SCOTS report was based on in
vestigations made during the period
that saloons existed in Ingham county
1t showed that in ten weeks no less
that 1870 employees lost from one.half
to three days directly following the
receipt of their pay. The wages of
these men average 1925 per day. The
maximum loss to each man represent
ed 1915, or an amount equal to about
IS per cent of his two weeks wages.
This failure of the employees to appear
at their places of labor after night in
the saloon also meant considerable
ioss to the manufacturer for when
man fails to come to work when he is
expected machines and other men
must wait until the mans place can
be filed. AS result of his investiga.
tions Mr.. Scott declared it to be I'M
questionsbly evident that the saloon
was q cause of serious financial loss
60 both the employer and employees.
That it lowered the wage scale of the
employe through the fact that he could
not be relied upon and promoted, and
II injured the employer through lower
ing his production and increasing his
producing expense The facts referred
to by Mr.. Scott made 1t very plain
why most of the employers of labor of
this state are actively opposed to the
existence of the saloon.

Is It Worth While7

Is it worth while that we jostle a
brother,
Bearing his load on the rough side of
life?
Is it worth while that we jeer at each
other,
In blackness of heart that we war
to the knife?-
God pity us all in our pitiful strife!
God pity us all as we jostle each other,
God pardon us all for the triumphs
we feel
When fellow goes down; poor, heart
... broken brother,
Pierced in the heart-words are keen
or than steel.
And mightier far for woe or for veal.
Were it not we'll in this brief little
journey
On over the isthmus, down into the
tide,
We give him fish instead of serpent,
Ere folding the hands, to be and abide,
For ever and aye, in dust at his side!
Look at the roses saluting each other;
Look at the herds all at peace on the
plain:
Man. and man only, makes war on his
brother,
And dotes in his heart on his peril and
pain,
Shamed by the brutes that go down
on the plain.
Is it worth while that we battle to
humble
Some poor fellow traveller down into
the dust?
God pity us all! Time too soon will
us tumble,
All men together, like leaves in gust
All of us humble down into the dust.

BEGINNING OF CH|NA'S
NEW GOVERNMENT
A Better Understanding Has CONS
Out of the Storm

Pekin. China. Jan. 1.-THE national
assembly, which met October 10. was
dissolved today after a session of
stormy and characteristic clashes be-
tween the throne and the grand cOun-
Gil, but nevertheless it has been pro-
ductive of good in its special mission
in preparing the way for a general
parliament in 1913.
The edict of dissolution was read
in the assembly. The grand council
lors, with the exception Of Prince
Ching. were present
The palace and the assembly each
appear to have learned a lesson from
the deliberations The throne has been
made aware that the people are deter
mined to have a voice in the govern
ment. On the other hand, the radical
element has been given TO understand
that ill-advised legislation or move
ments designed to undermine the cen
trail government will not be tolerated
The recent action of the delegates in
withdrawing a memorial offensive TO
the throne is accepted as evidence
that the majority recognizes the good
intentions of the prince regent, but.
above all, that they see the necessity
of preserving the state from internal
dissensions in the most critical time
of it's history.
