HUMBLE HUMAN ORIGIN.

This editorial will not treat Of hui
man origin as relating to man as
species. 1t relates to the origin of
men, meaning where they came from,
whether they sprang from humble or
arlStOcratiC origin, from sinful or spir-
itual beginning.
When we speak of this or that
mans success in life it almost invari-
ably comes to us to ask of his origin;
where was he born? Where was he
raised? What was his environment?
Answers to these question do not
always come. We may not be able to
find out, unless we ask and that is
not always agreeable, nor possible
1t rarely comes about that a sue
cessful man hesitates to tell if he
came from lowly parentage and hum
bic surroundings. These men are gen
orally proud of their records, proud of
their origin. J. Pierpont Morgan, the
greatest hnancier in all history, is
more proud of his humble beginning
at Hartford than many sons of rich
men raised in the lap of luxury Abra-
ham Lincoln never paraded his an
cestry, yet his humble life always in
dictated that he was not ashamed of
it. Somehow General Grants life
shines far brighter when one remem-

WHEN WE WERE BOYS.

The Palisade Union Church has
called in a minister who seems to be
we'll fitted for his calling. Dr.. Lee
T. Beattie told the other Sunday of
an experience in his younger days
that every boy and every man should
have heard. 1t was a narrative OF
his own life, and in substance told of
a baseball club that was the founda-
ton of a church DIR. Beattie was the
captain of the club, away back in
1882, in a Wisconsin pioneer lumber
town on the shores of Lake Superior
He told of his experience in lumber
way to provoke both smiles and tears.
The entire purpose behind the story
was that if a boy put character
into his work or play its moral in
f1uence would always work for good.
The talk was an eloquent sermon,
because it told the truth of the silent
man who did not quail before a vor-
tex of Wickedness, but plunged into
its core and swept it away by the
power that radiated from within DR..
Beattie reaches a very wholesome
religion, and is force in any pulpit,
by his method of reaching the heart
strings, by his natural appeals, and by
his very human talk. He breaches
the love of God without the mysticism
of theology, and he proves the broth
erhood of man with simple truths and
earnest appeal.

this, the little corps will be taught

bers his cabin birthright. The world
comes to recognize these things as
part of man and his moral worth.
To be sure there have been many
great men who have had origin amidst
the highest social surroundings, but
they do not begin to approach the
number of those who have come out
of the depths.
No man should ever be ashamed of
his beginning, just as no man should
ever be ashamed of his having come
out of life of sin into the higher
planes of moral or religious thought
and action A minister of the gospel
who became powerful in his late years
used to speak openly of the fact that
he was reclaimed from life Of sin.
He was proud to make himself an
example of humility and to boast that
God does not despise the worst of us.
The finest temperance lecturers have
come from the ranks of drunkards.
1t is far better to lead lives of humll-
ity and honesty than to be high on
the rolls of social caste, pretending to
be sober and honest while secretly
serving the devil and taking cocktails
on the side The Lord provides a
place finally for the hypocrite; He
takes up, also, the Wayfarlng man who
renounces his evil ways. These latter
are the really commendable people
the dependable ones. They rise i'll

NOT ON THE MAP.

a significant remark was recently
made by the new minister of Pail
sade's Union Church, Rev. Lee T.
Beattie. He has a charge in New
York City, but his residence is in
Flushing, Long Island After looking
Palisade over he came to the conclu-
sion that it was a very attractive
place, but that he had never heard of
it.
And that's the situation to-day.
People do not know about Palisade
1t isn't on the map. New York news
papers that publish MAPS of suburban
properties will mention Fort Lee,
Hackensack, Leonia, Palisades Park,
or Englewood, but never find a spot
for Palisade
Something is wrong.
Some concerted action should be
taken to advertise Palisade. Two half
page announcements in about three
New York newspapers, with map,
would go a long way towards letting
people know The overflow from
New York is going somewhere 1t

makes the country the back bone of
the nation. That's what makes the
village take such a clear interest in

Santa Fe, n. NJ, Feb. S.-The fate Of
six large irrigation enterprises, fnvolv-
ing the expenditure of s10.000,00o dol
lars or more, depends upon the out
come of the hearing Of six appeals be-
fore the territorial board OF water
commissioners, begun today. The pro-
jects, whose applications were rejected
by the territorial engineer because the
United States reclamation service
claims all the waters Of the Pecos for
the Carlsbad irrigation project IN Eddy
county, are those Of Lake Urton, Of the
Fort Sumner and Pecos Land company,

The contention Of the reclamation
service is the same IN this instance as
that in the case of the Rio Grande,
where an embargo has been placed on
all unappropriated waters Of the river
and its tributaries because of the de-
mands of the Engle dam.
The hearings will take several days
and the decisions will not be handed
down for some days. No matter what
the decision, the cases viii be carried
eventually to the United States su-
preme court.
