BUSINESS MEMS LUCK.

One of the destinations of business
lies in its uncertainty. says the Chris
tian Herald. As DR. Van Dyke said
Of angling. 50 many a man has said
of business Ills an affair of luck"
and the great majority get on the
wrong side Of luck
For every fisherman who brings
his basketfu of shining fish. there
are hundreds who catch nothing. but
somehow. they've enjoyed it. and
they always go again. Some mercan-
tile agencies claim that of every
hundred concerns starting i'm bust
ness ninety fail. Not long ago
mercantile agency published a. list
of failures in the United States.
showing 51.46O failures during the
preceding four years. an average of
nearly $4,000 a year.
OF course the unimaginative critic
declares solemnly that the failures
are due in ninetenths of the cases
to "mismanagement" You can't
make the men who have failed be-
lieve that You can't make the
men who are starting new enter
prises today believe that success or
ldlluIe rtSlS NiloLE Will IltHl anu
is not very largely dependent upon
conditions over which they have no
control Not much can be accom-
plished by preaching against luck"
as an element to be reckoned with
in business. Every man will believe
in it. or in his own cleverness-and
that isn't much better-until he has
something better to believe in. Even
the hard headed. well-seasoned bust
ness man is apt to be looking for
lucky strike or to anathematiZe
his luck when things go wrong. The
lucky pocket piece, the good or bad
omen. the mascot, are all regarded
with some degree of respect by men
who certainly are old enough to know
better

Current Comment
WHAT BUSINESS SUFFERS FROM

The groenback craze ran its course
when times were hard, and il was
in a period of depression that free
silver became a political issue and
convulsed the country. In the sense
that great numbers Of men are out
Of work and the bread line is long,
times are not hard now, but business,
although showing signs of a revival
if allowed legitimate freedom Of ac-
ton, is not good.
Business is suffering now from too
much politics. 1t does not ask i'm
munity from prosecution if. and when,
il is in the wrong. But it would like
to be let alone by the dema gogues.
and it is FESTIVE and uneasy under
their strident demands upon the pres
ident To prosecute every business en-
terprise Of magnitude as a trust.
Every demagogue in the country
today calls himself a Progressive"
II may seem paradoXical to the ear,
but the effect of Progressive" pol
icies on honest business is construct
ing and retarding. a paralysis and a
hight which discourages everybody
who has the interests Of the country
at heart. We have faith that the
malady will pass. as the greenback
craze evaporatcd and the free silver
delusion disappeared. Sanity and a
healthy public opinion will prevail i'm
the end. and :. period of expanding
prosperity such as the country has
rever known before will follow But
first the people will have to see
through the demaGogues.N New York

 Reginald H. Thomson. city engineer of Seattle. has worked for 20 years with al- most inconceivable enthusiasm at the task of remedying Seattle's natural defects He has regarded more than 25 miles Of street and has moved more than 100000 cubic yards of dirt.
 He has washed the hills into the bay and torn down and regarded five square miles of the city. He piles taxes on the citizens, but although they grumble they follow him. What Thomson intended to do he has done. Mayors come and go. are but for month or year, but Thomson hangs on forever.
 For generation he has pounded away with hydraulics at the hills of Seattle, has built boule,ards and parks, but in sewers and a water system and inciden- tally piled up taxes upon indignant citi- zens.
 Today he is recognized as one of the great municipal engineers of the country but the opposition to him has been tre-
