Rewards and Penalties Of Industry

"A slave to work" Is the distinc-
tion a New York paper pays to the
late Edwin Hawley. The same thing
was said OF the late Edwin II. Harri-
man. Both men died little past so,
when. II seemed. they were but be-
ginning the completion of their great
life work. cut on before the end.
And yet. Of course. there is the belief
that no man dies before his time.
But apart from dogma. there is 4
suggestion In such careers as those
OF Hawley and Hartman that indus
try has its penalties quite as much
as its rewards. These men undoubt-
eddy earned the rewards, but they
also seem to have incurred the penal
ties. Even when travelling, It is said
OF both that they had little restful
time: that they worked themselves
and their secretaries almost as hard
as when In their Offices. J. c. Stubs.

The Automobile

A business that has grown from
practically nothing to s2O0.00O,000
within twelve years, that has touched
the public in point of service in so
many ways that II would be both
dificult and tedious TO catalogue
them, deserves some attention.
The automobile industry is surely
the early triumph OF the century.
Whatever else may have been
achieved by man within this last de-
cade OF scientific sensations, nothing
has even approached the motor car
in its diversity of development or APP
plication. What was little more
than a toy at the beginning Of the
twentieth century is now leading
factor In the industrial, commercial
and social life OF the people. Whether
for business or pleasure, the motor
car is doing a work that has far eX-
ceeded the expressed thought of the
most daring Of Its earlier promoters.
Its future may hardly be guessed at
beyond the obvious conclusion that
its sphere will constantly expand.
Omaha is much interested In the
growth Of the trade, because 1t. has
become one OF the chief points for
the distributing Of the output of the
factories. Builders Of machines
early recognized the shipping and
other trading advantages OF this city.
and the result has been the building
up OF a trade that is far greater than
those not familiar with It conceive.
Branch depots and headquarters for
great factories have been located
here and all the many lines OF cars
and accessories have agencies here,
until the expression, auto row"
carries with II thought Of a large
and important group OF active busl-
ness men engaged in the steadily in
ereasing trade.
The show that opens on Monday Is
the annual invitation OF these enter
prising dealers to their customers
and the public in general to look
over the newer makes of cars for all
purposes. with the improved designs
and equipment. II is really a show
OF expansion and worthy of the great
attention that has been bestowed
upon II. The automobile is a well
established factor in our social econ
omy and as such merits the closest
observation. ....
