A GREAT MODERN CREATION

The Ford Motor Car Company la
one of the most marvellous industrial
creations Of modern times. In all
there are nearly 10000 people in its
employment. 1t has recently divided
SO 0O0 900 among its stockholders,
and at still later time has distribut-
cd another $10,0O0.000 among its EN-
ployes. and has fixed the lowest min
mum wage Of it's employees a. s. per
day That is to say, the man who
sweeps the floor will get that sum.
Thirty dollars d week for a janitor is
rather a nifty sum. In the diStribu-
ton Of the ten millions among its EN-
ployes we understand that Mir. b -uce
Neffert of our city received as mis-
share one hundred dollars.
Mr.. Henry Ford, who organized the
company, is a practical machinist. He
has worked as an employee, and is in
entire sympathy with labor, and is de-
termined that it shall reap its full re-
ward wherever he is concerned. The
Ford car is daily growing ia popular
ity.
In speaking of the division of the
large sum of ten millions among the
Ford employees. the New York World
says:
"All this evidences a recognition of
capitals implied obligations to labor,
which is greatly to the credit OF the
company. The Ford employees. in
deed, have received the charter Of
new industrial freedom. Will the
plan serve as a pattern for imitation
by other employers? It's test, of
course, will come in the lean years
when profits decline But it is none
the less a striking exemplification of
new policies in the world of indus
try"

SIMON BOLIVAR BUcKNER

The hour that brings the news 0
the death of Simon Bolivar Buckner
s so late that there is no time foi
more than a word of tribute to his
life But that life was SO luminous,
20 familiar to all to whom the Courier
Journal goes, that only to speak of i
IS to throw upon the mind OF the read
or, as upon canvass. the picture Of
l personality ard career more vivid
than volumes of words could produce.
To say thai General Huchner at tho
time OF his death was the most emf
nent Of soldier-ciyilian Kentuckians,
is hardly worth the saying. There is
not today il all our country surviv-
or Of our civil war who has shown
himself so stalwart figure both on
the stage of war and of peace: and, as
for that, who OF all his contemporar-
les in the field ever manifested a
clearer conception OF our republican
institutions, a clearer conception OF
his duties under them, or severer
or frmer courage to uphold his con
ceptions?
AS simple as child and as lovable;
as courtly as the knight errant o. 70,
nance, and as brave, he was, it may
we'll be said without eulogistic eXaG-

Under the heading: John Bull at
his Best" the New York World says:
Great Britain never gave the United
States more distinguished proof of
goodwill than in the transfer OF its
representative in Mexico. Sir Lionel
Garden, to Brazil. This gentleman
has been the British Henry Lane VII
son. The later influence OF the one
harmonized perfectly with the earlier
influence of the other In gaining for
the Huerta usurpation the hasty re-
cognition of many European powers.
Failure to accomplish the same re-
suit in Washington has brought the
whole conspiracy to confusion.
