Ballot and MuIct.

Cedar Rapids Republican: The Des
Moines Tribune fayors the Australian
ballot for the settlement of muIct
questions in Iowa, instead of the pres
ent method of signatures. It bases it's
conclusions upon the disgraceful CON
tests that have been turned up in ev-
cry city, growing out of the circula-
ton of petitions. In Iowa, under the
mulct law, we have decided to abide
by the decision of the majority, or of
65 per cent in certain cases and
there can be no reasonable objection
to secret ballot. The secret ballot
would not help one side more than
another. In the secret ballot box men
would express their honest opinions.
1t is the American method, In any
event, and If we believe in the rule OF
the majority, let the will of the. ma
jority be ascertained in secret, under
no compulsion or intimidation. Then
there could be honest discussion and a
fair verdict.

EMPLOYEES AS STOCKHOLDERS

EMPLOYEES AS sTockHoLDERs.
The Railway Age Gazette recently
had an editorial on cooperation be-
tween railways and their employees in
which brief descriptions were given
OF plans adopted by the Baldwin Lo-
connective Works and the Union Switch
& Signal Company for enlisting the
interest of employees in the welfare of
the companies by enabling them to
become stockholders In it's latest is
sue the same publication tells of
plan for assisting employees to buy
stock that has been in eff
feet on the Illinois Central
since 1898, when it was an
nounced in circular issued by Presi-
dent Stuyvesant Fish. All officers and
employees are given the privilege OF
subscribing for one share at time for
which they pay in instalments of S.
or multiples of that sum to be de-
Quoted from their monthly wages.
The price paid is the market price at
the time of application. When the
payments are completed a stock GER
tificate is delivered and registered on
the company's books. The employee
can then, ii he wishes, begin the pur-
chase OF another share. While install
ments are being paid they are credit
ed with interest at per cent, unless
twelve consecutive months elapse
without payment, in which case the
interest ceases to accrue at the ex-
piration of that period and the sum
tc the employees credit is returned to
him on application.
If an officer or employee making pay.
ments desires for any reason to dis
continue them he can have his money
returned with accrued interest at
per cent, by making application to the
head of his department. The COM
pany, therefore, acts as savings bank
for employees, even though they finally
decide not to take the stock subscrib-
ed for. If an employee leaves the SER
vice he must either pay in full for the
share for which he has subscribed and
take his certificate, or take back his
money with the accrued interest. En-
ployes may also subscribe for one or
more shares for cash, providing they
have not already an outstanding ap-
plication for share on the instalment
plan which is not fully paid for.
While the number OF employees who
have taken advantage of the plan is
small in proportion to the total mum.
her, many have availed themselves of
the privilege of thus identifying their
interests with those of the company.

NEW METHOD OF RESPIRATION.

NEW w e r1oO Vt uCST unN Y WV
Two animals were put to death and
restored to life recently by new
method of artificial respiration de
vised by DR.. Samuel j. Meltzer of the
Rockefeller Institute for Medical Re-
search. DR.. Meltzer's report appears
in preliminary note issued by the
Department of Physiology and Pharm-
acology and printed in the Journal of
the American Medical Association.
The discovery reported by DR., Melt
ger was made In experiments to dis
cover successful method of artificial
respiration In furtherance Of efforts
for saving life In industrial establish
ments in cases of accidents He be-
lieves the method to be equally appli-
cable to man and urges that 1t be
tried in all cases of death from acute
illness. The actual cause Of death
might be only of a temporary nature.
The method consists of the intro
duction OF catheter into the pharnyx,
pulling out of the tongue, forcing the
back part Of the tongue against the
roof OF the mouth by pressure ap-
piled far back under the chin, putting
weight on the abdomen to keep air
from being forced into the stomach,
connecting the catheter with bellows
and pumping air into the lungs.

nRE BRITISH, MEM,

The words, BE British, men, said
to have been used by Captain Smith
of the Titanic to his crew in the crisis,
have occasioned the frequent reprint
ing of the following verses written by
Henry Newbolt, an English barrister
and poet.
There's GREATNESS hush in the Close
tonight
Ten to make and the match to win
"A humping pitch and binding light,
An hour to play and the last man in.
And it's not for the sake OF ribboned
coat,
Or the selfish hope OF a seasons
fame.
But his Captains hand on his shoulder
smote,
PLAY up! play up! and play the
camel
The sand Of the desert is sodden red
Red with the wreck of a square that
broke;
The gatling's damned and the Colonel
dead
And the regiment blind with the dust
and smoke.
The river of death has brimmed his
banks,
And England's far. and Honor a
name,
But the voice of a schoolboy rallies
the ranks,
"Play up! play up! and play the
game!"
This is the word that year by year
While in her place the School is set,
Every one of her sons must bear,
And none that hears 1t dare forget
This they all with joyful mind
Bear through life like a. torch in
flame,
And falling, fling to the host behind
PLAY up! play up! and play the
game!''

NEW PENSION LAW PRAISED.

In few words of comment deliver
ed before the regular sermon in the
Lexington Avenue Baptist church,
Chicago. last Sunday night DIR. NJ P.
Boynton, the pastor, praised the bill
recently passed by congress increasing
the pensions for veteran soldiers and
sailors. He declared that never in
the history of the world, nor by any
other nation of our day has a people
shown Its appreciation of the services
Of the common soldier on such gener-
Gus terms as those OF the new pension
bill just passed by the congress and
approved by the President The new
law. he said, is the expression of a
nations love for the men who dared
all in the times of national peril by
enlisting in the army and navy They
risked life itself In countless ways
The mere battle with the enemy was
but one of the many perils of war. It
took quite as much courage to dare
the dangers of camp as that required
in action on the field of battle. DR..
Boynton said in this connection:
THE death lists OF our wars show
that the camp was nearly as fatal as
the field. The dangers from poor food.
exposed quarters, idle hours, long
night watches and many other neces-
sary duties make up no small part of
the risk one runs when he bears arms
for his country
Thousands of old soldiers carry
the wounds and diseases of the war,
and by reason of years are now I'M
able to earn a living for themselves
and families. Hundreds of these are
now utterly dependent upon their
pensions for the necessities of life.
The increased pension will come to
such men as a benediction and lift
many anxious cares from their hearts.
1t is a beautiful thing to thus pro-
vide fer old soldiers and sailors, and
such acts by nation go a long way
toward building the nation itself on
enduring foundations. This great
sisterhood of states becomes by thi;
new pension law a firmer unity than
lever before"
The speaker pointed out that the
pension laws are great life insurance
4 policies for the nation, but are differ.
ent from ordinary life insurance in
this. that this sort Of national action
assures long and happy existence for
the nation. 1t is as good for nation
to love as it is for individuals to love
ore another In conclusion this was
said
Then these liberal pensions mean
prolonged family life all over the ma
ton. II Is far better that aged men

factionalism.
But Mr.. Blythe's nobility of char
acter survives his detractors. He was
honest. He was man of his word
He was candid and honorable. People
could always know where he stood.
He was a good fighter. but always fair
and just. He won the respect of his
political foes and he had the undying
confidence and loyalty of his friends,
because he was always true to them
Had Mr. Blythe been in Theodore
Rooseyelt's place, pledged not to be a
candidate for third term, nothing
could have swerved him from fidelity
to his word. He valued his word as
his soul and had no use for a man
who would violate his promises.

THE FEAST OF THE WEEKS.


According to the Jewish calendar,
Shabuoth, the Feast OF the Weeks =
also called the Feast of the First
Fruits" begins this evening Shah
10th derives It's name from the seven
weeks which elapsed between the de.
parture OF the children of Israel from
Egypt and their arrival at Mt. Sinai.
The time was the early harvest season
and historically it carries one back
to the PRONUNCIATION of the ten com
mandments when Israel accepted the
new moral code and religious legisla-
ton and was aroused for the first
time to the consciousness OF its new
spiritual task and destiny. AS time
has passed, Shabuoth has gained a
stronger and more impressive hold by
entwining its symbolism about the
impressionahle child and has become
the occasion for confirmation in the
Jewish church.
