the turning wheel and the lever to all ma
chinery what the alphabet is to all language. The
most complex mechanism will be found upon
final analysis merely to be a combination of
these simple mechanical principles.
Add to these the discovery of the of coal
and oil and of the expansibiity of water and
gasoline and we have the materiasl out of which
almost all our contraptions of civilization are
made.
Human social life, kind of mechanism in
finitely more complex than any engine of iron
and steel, is also composed of various combina-
tions of few very simple social institutions.
The family with it's shelter the home, the army,
navy, police and fire forces, the school, the
church, the press and the library are to society
what the scale is to the musician. The modern
reformer and social revolutonist is who de-
sires to rearrange these or to reapply them in
new combinations He does not attempt to Gre
ate new but merely to rearrange the old
The chasmal difference, then, between the
inventor and explorer of today and he of past
ages is that the former had to create the very
tools with which he worked while the latter uses
tools already made. The first social reformer had
to create the social institutions we'll to
age them. He was like the artist who was obliged
to grind his pigments out of his garden clays
and make his brushes from the hair of his cat
Because the early inventor and explorer were
compelled to find their way as we'll as to follow
it early progress was necessarily slow. Like Col
umbus embarking on the mysterious sea they
had neither chart to sal! by port to make to.
If for the sake of illustration suppose the
race to be now 100000 years old savagery occu-
pied 10000, or twelve-twenteths, of the time
barbarism held over seven-twenteths of the time
or $4,000 years; civilization has passed across
barely 5000 years only one-twentieth of the
total time
If we have traversed the vast stretches since
Niniveh and Tyre in one-twelfth of the time it
took forbears to traverse the small distance
from the cave-dWeller to the bow and arrow user
we have reasons to feel encouraged.
We progress in geOmetric ratio Each new
gain enables us to gain the faster. At our pre-
sent rate we should travel faster in the next one
thousand than in the last five thousand years.
All the materials of a perfect human society
are in hands. We know enough to cure all
diseases if we but apply knowledge We can
destroy all poverty if we but make right use of
present means. We have in hand the means of
educating every individual on the earth. The
tools for conquering the world in the name of
brotherhood and enlightenment are in our

BIG GARRISON NEEDED.

Washington, Jan. ia garrison
Of 25sO00 men will be necessary to
guard the Panama canal, Colonel G0e-
thals told the house naval affairs
committee today. Under present
plans congress would provide for a
garrison Of only 5000 men.
Once We lost control Of the sea
in war, he said. we would have to
depend upon the garrison on the
zone. At least $4,000 men would be
needed to properly guard the canal"
Colonel Goethals lauded the worn
done by the marines in the canal
zone and urged the retention Of a
considerable force Of marines there. ?
His statement that the canal could
hardly be held if the United States
lost control Of the sea aroused much
interest IN the committee and later
in the day Representative Hobson Of
Alabama, urging provision for iarg-

appropriation bill quoted Colonel

EFFECTIVE BLOW
FOR SHIP TRUST
REPRESENTATIVE HUMPHREY

Washington. Jan. 1S.-The first re
suit of the Investigation of the So
called shipping trust by the house
merchant marine committee appeared
today as a bin by Representative
Humphrey Washington, to bar
from the Pam canal all American
or foreign "a combines and
oeafersa5
Witnesses HI se told the committee
that pract, sally all vessels in the
American Atlantic coastwide trade
operate in agreement. and that the
foreign lines in trade between New
York and South America, South Afri-
ca, Australia, Japan, China, the
and India have rate and
sailing date agreements and rebate
and pooling agreements.
The -evidence already produced
at these hearings" declared Repre-
sentative Humphrey today, as he pre-
sented the bill to the house, had full
ly demonstrated that the foreign
steamships which carry our com
merce are guilty of every charge
made against them. The United
States is a mere way station for
these foreign-owned lines and the
freight and passenger rates charged
from this country to other parts Of
the world are fixed in Europe. The
evidence also has developed the fact
that these foreign combines intend tt
monopolize and control the trade
through the Panama canal

POOR OLD CASTRO.

which Cipriano Castro desired to en-
Joy while the department of com

right to enter this country was de-
MED him today. Federal Judge Holt
refused to grant an application for
the Venezuelan's release on bail.
Judge Holt said that no action
should be taken on the question Of
bail until Secretary Nagel has had a
reasonable time to consider Castros
appeal from the action Of the local
immigration authorities. If this ap-
peal was denied, the court said, the
application for bail and for writ
of habeas corpus might be renewed.
