TEACHING SAFETY.

AS an illustration of the interest
taken in the prevention of accidents
the monthly bulletin issued by the IN
land Steel company of Indiana Harbor
is enightening. 1t circulates amnng
the employees of that concern and
warns them of the dangers which they
daily encounter and advises simple
precautionary methods for avoiding &C.
cidents. For example, in recent is.
sue under an illustration headed Safe
guard Your Eyes" is this warning in
Polish, Creation, Roumanian, Slovak
and Hungarian as well as in English !:
Wear goggles when working around
circular saws, chipping, handling acid,
cutting cables, working at emery
wheels. etc" There is also a brief ar
ticle by DR.. Robert Ansley on the need
Of protecting the eyes and the injury
that is likely to result to them unless
they are guarded.
The longest article is written by the
superintendent of the company's bar
mill and gives the various causes oil
accidents md the percentage due to
each cause. The ir,ieie Is illustrated
by the following: Each man in charge
of men should exercise careful SUPER
vision over the safety of the men in
his charge. If the men are taught
that they must exercise great care ant
caution they will do so. but If tbs is
not constantly impressed upon then
they will grow careless. ''-Chicagc

Americans have always been familiar
with is so wide that it cannot be de-
Tended by any believer in the equality
of all men at the polls. 1t is an abuse
which fatty contradicts the oft-repeat-
ed assertion that Great Britain is real
ly more democratic than the United
States in its form of government.
Now an effort is being made to
abolish this gross injustice of plural
voting. The house of commons has
passed a bill for that purpose. but the
house of lords, true to its Tory tradi-
tons, rejected this reform measure by
the overwhelming majority of 166 to
Az In the end the stand of the heredi-
tary branch of parliament can avail
nothing more than delay. but 1t will
make class feeling run higher than
ever in England and breed trouble in

TORIES TO THE LAST.

In Great Britain and Ireland one of
the most Infamous wrongs entrenched
by long usage and the sanction of the
laws is the system of plural voting for
members of parliament
When new house of commons is
to be chosen the elections are strung
along for a about week. In a coun-
try of no great size it is easy for man
to go from one district to another and
thin on to a third, in time to vote in
as many places as he is entitled a
ballot And he is given that privilege
wherever he has residence. If he owns
and occupies, at some time during the
year, four or five houses in four or five
different parliamentary districts, or di-
visions. as they are called in England.
he can vote for candidate for the
house of commons in every one of
them.
The effect, Of course, is to give O
rich man several times the power of
a poor man in electing the national
parliament or congress. 1t is a suf.
frage based upon property, and the de-
parture from standard such as

THE "CELEsTIAL" KINGDOM

Everyone knows the epithet "Celes-
tial' applied to China. but few know
It's origin. According to a very old
legend Thibet is fragment of a plan
ct. once peopled by yellow race,
which in some way became detached
and fell on the earth.
The dazed inhabitants of the frag-
ment were uninjured, and, cold and
hungry, they made their way toward
China, which they peopled.
This origin of the Chinese race led
to their calling themselves "Celes-
tials,' and it Is for this reason that
the emperor calls himself Son of Heav-
en-. Such at least is the legend.

to make an investigation, and the rep

unquestionably there were violations
of the law, but that they were carried
on in such a manner as to make 1t
very difficult to get at them.
When word was received from Terre

people should lay the matter before

the Governor and told him that liquor
was being sold in violation of the laws.
The Governor gave the same directions
as to laying the case before the local

Then there was a local option cleo

the election was full of corruption.
The Governor again told them to see

was done.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 4.--Governor
Ralston and Thomas Taggart will
have the finest opportunity in the
world for a season of quiet little po-
lftical conferences and talks in the
next three or four weeks because the
Governor leaves this city tomorrow
night with his wife and daughter TO
spend the vacation with Mr.. Taggart
and family at their summer home at
Hyannisport, Mass. Governor Ralston
says this will be the first time in his
life that he has taken real vaction,
and he expects to have fine time. OF
course, he wanted to have the best
time possible on his first vacation. SO
as to work up an appetite for more of
1t for next year, 80 he chose to accept
the urgent invitation of his very close
friend. Mr.. Taggast. to spend the va
cation with him as his guest.
1t goes without saying that he could
not have found a more genial and
happy host than Mr. Taggart. He Is
the prince of entertainers and IL a
guest of his fails to have a good time
| it is his own fault. Mr.. Taggart learn
ed the art of entertaining a long time
ago. and there is no better in the
world than he. The Governor ia re-
garded extremely fortunate that he
can spend his vacation in company as
congenial and with friend who
knows things like Mr.. Taggart knows
them.
Mr.. Taggart and Governor Ralston
have been close friends for many
years. They have worked together
never opposing--in many campaigns In

of politics that have grown up be-
