GUY GOFF
Makes Brilliant Address to the
Graduating Class in City
of Milwaukee.

Guy D. Golf, United States district
attorney with headquarters at Mil
waukee, Wis, addressed the gradual
ing class at Marquette University in
Milwaukee recent day. The Even
ing Wisconsin published his address
in full. Here are some of the gems
OF 1t:
Humanity has suffered the delus.
T. ion that social and political evils of
the day can be eradicated by the pro
cess of law alone, but religious
spirit Is needed as complement to a
law that inspires fear and respect"
Experience has taught that sue
cess in life depends more on charaC-
ter than on either intellect or for
tune"
Not every man can do the work
that shows in the great fabric of the
intellectual and material prosperity
of the nation, but IL ones contribu-
tion must be small because of his ca
pacity, and his opportunities are
humble, he has no right to make it
humber still by not ever doing his
small best"
mo man. not even the minister of
the gospel. assumes greater RESPONSE
bilities or has greater duty to be up
right and circumspect in his habit
and conduct than the lawyer"
IF you are afflicted with the fancy
that the world needs you and is wait
ing for you, 1t is best to rid yourself
of that idea at once and accept the
hard, unpalatable thought that you
need the world and cannot get along
without It,"

AT the Scene Of the Mine Horror
after Twenty Charred Bod
les Are Taken Out.
KILLED MEN NUMBER 1877
Many of the Bodies will Not Be
Gotten Out of the Mine
for Several Days.

LETHBRIDGE, Alberta. June 90.
After recovering twenty charred
bodies at o'clock this morning, res
cuers were driven from their work
by fire at mine No. 20 OF the Hillcrest
Alberta Galleries, Ltd, where a
great explosion yesterday wrecked
the underground property and is be-
lieved to have killed 1877 men.
Among the bodies recovered were
those Of James Quigley, mine super
intendent, and Thomas Taylor, fire
boss. Mine experts believe that most
OF the men were entombed about L.
200 feet from the pit mouth. But
tons of rock, broken timbers and
other debris are heaped in the en-
frances and it seemed probable that
many of the bodies will not be recov-
cred for several days.
Exploration by rescuers early to-
day indicated that the miners had no
warning Of death as several bodies
were found standing nearly erect
with picks and other mining tools in
hand, pinned TO walls by timbers or
rocks.

NIAGARA FALLS, June 2O-Jusr
one month ago today the first Of the
Mexican mediation conferences was
held. Probably the last will occur
today. The prediction can not be
made with positiveness because of
possible developments in Mexico City
and Washington about which the
mediators lack definite information.
Minister Naon, Of Argentine, who
is expected to arrive here about 2 p.
m. from Washington, where he con-
ferred with President Wilson. Secre-
tary Bryan and Luis Cabrera, one Of
the representatives of the Constitu-
tionalists, may be bringing some new
plans. This is not considered prob
able, however, as the American dele
gates seemed anxious yesterday to
spread the news that their statement
to the public was final and that a
Constituionalist must be selected for
president. 1t is not believed here
that anything Mr.. Naon could say to
the Washington government or rep
resentatives of the Constitutionalists
would change the determination OF
either against the plan to install a
neutral.
Principals to the mediation confer
ference will go into the session late
today feeling that there is no chance
of an agreement and doubling il any
way can be found to prolong the me-
gotlations. II the three plans are
formally submitted, the Americans
will reject that prepared by the
Mexican delegation and very sim
liar one presented by the mediators.
The Mexicans will reject the Ameri-
can plan. The mediators will then
ask both delegations If they felt
there was any possibility for a change
of opinion. If deadlock were con-
fessed, the proceedings automatically
would end.
1t is probable therefore that the
net results of the mediation will be
the delay of hostilities between the
United States and the Huerta govern
ment.
The Mexican delegates here re-
ceived a telegram today from the
consul of their government at Ell
Paso, Tex, that General Villa had
issued statement addressed to the
American people saying that he had
proclaimed General Angeles as pro-
vistopal president of Mexico.
The consul added that according
to interpreted private dispatches at
Juarez reports of an amicable .ad-
justment of the differences between
Carranza and Villa were not true
He also said that word had reached
him that Carranza was quietly send
ing a force of 1000 men into the
state of Sonora with the intention of
deposing Governor Maytorena, with
whom Carranza was reported to have
had differences.

And Affairs in the Window
Glass World Are Some
what Easier Now.

PlTTSBURG, June 20.-The Glass
worker reviews the window glass
situation as follows:
Affairs in the window glass world
have been progressing somewhat more
easily during the last week and fair
amount of business has been booked,
OF course conditions could be more
satisfactory and a greater volume of
business could easily be handled but,
considering the general state of af-
fairs throughout the country, matters
are in pretty good shape and the glass
on hand should be disposed of in time
to clear the decks for action next sea-
son.
1t is really a matter for wonderment
that affairs have progressed as well as
they have in the window glass industry
during the last two years, when the
conditions which prevailed prior to
that time are taken into consideration.
a stable market has been maintained
in the face OF what we're at first con-
sidered insurmountable difficulties.
Chaos reigned supreme prior to the
organization of the johnson Brokerage
Company and principally through the
AANASA0AAEooAC pNlSO NlA1A 70 VI JOuu
R. johnson and his able lieutenants
the trade was again placed on a firm
and solid foundation, despite the
croakers and chronic kickers who
could see nothing but disaster con-
fronting the industry.
Since the trade was lifted out OF the
slough of despond there has been great
steadiness in the price situation and
both the manufacturers and workers
have profited by the reversal OF form,
which enabled the manufacturers to
place in effect an extra charge for
packages resulting in better service
for all and bringing large sum an
nually into the Golfers OF the pro-
ducers. A much stronger and better
package is now given consumers and
there is much less complaint regard
ing breakage.
The annual average production OF
window glass in the United States Is
about 100000 boxes, and as the aver
age boxing charge is twenty cents per
box, 1t can easily be computed what

BUSINESS BOOKED
IS FAIR AMOUNT

this feature alone has done for the
producers.
This could not have been success
fully accomplished without thorough
organization, and only demonstrates
the results that accrue from unan-
unity of purpose and action. Had the
matter depended on Individual action
there would have been nothing doing
And this leads us to point out the
danger that lies in "sniping" in the
matter OF trying to land orders ION
the side" 1t would certainly be far
better for the individual producers to
refrain from this sort of business, as
he would only be placing mine that
would eventually result in hosting
him by his own petard.
Results from organized effort may
at times be slow, but the attempt to
get quicked returns on the part Of the
individual usually ends in bringing
about an era of undertaking and I'M
derselling which can have no other
than detrimental effect on the entire
trade. There's such thing as kill
ing the goose that lays the golden
eggs and "sniping" for ION the side"
orders is usually a prime factor In
bringing about disorganization and a
go-as-you-please order OF things which
always results in lower prices and
consequently lower wages.
If there are any producers in the
trade who are addicted to this practice
1t would be we'll for them to give this
phase Of the question few moments
thought before irreparable damage is
done the entire industry. A return to
the chaotic conditions of few years
ago presents by no means an inviting
aspect
The annual meeting and election OF
officers will be held by window glass
men at the Hotel Shelburne, Atlantic
City, next month, from July % to ~
inclusive. Present indications point
to large attendance.
An attractive illustrated souvenir
booklet will be issued for distribution
at the Atlantic City gathering by the
Johnson Brokerage Company, which
viii no doubt be Of great interest to
the recipients The booklet is now In
the hands Of the printer.

WASHINGTON, d. C., June 90
West Virginia sawmIll men who have
worked out their timber tracts, or
who for various other reasons may
want to change their locations may
be interested in the opportunities of
feret to American lumbermen in the
Philippines. The Bureau Of Insular
Affairs in Washington has received
general descriptions of a number of
tracts Of timber which the government
OF the Philippines is ready. to. lease in
areas OF from thirty-ive to 300 square
miles, while one or two tracts of even
larger size are obtainable.
The markets for Philippine lumber
are principally in the Orient and 1t Is
stated by the Bureau of Insular Affairs
that there is a much larger market
there than the current production can
NIL. The director of forestry at Man
liza has estimated that three hundred
million board feet OF lumber a year
could easily be marketed outside the
Philippine islands, while the quantity
exported In 1913 was less than ten
million feet. The great need in the
Held Is said to be capital sufficient to
put In equipment capable OF handling
the large hardwood logs and to permit
the proper seasoning Of the product.
1t is said there are two hundred bill
lion board feet OF valuable hardwoods
standing In the public forests of the
Philippines awaiting american capital
and industry to market them.
The small tracts are handled under
one year leases, but the large ones are
operated under concessions as the
twenty-year exclusive leases are
called. Tile four trees-lauan, api-
tong, quito and. yacal-consdtute the
