Pres. Wilson's antitrust message
was the diverse side Of heart TO
heart conversation with congress. The
other side will be- awaited with abb
s0rbing interest The president spoke
in good temper. with appreciative
sympathy and understanding. His
speech had all the tenderness and en-
phasis OF parental soiicitude.
with malice toward none and
charity for ar," yet with clear con
ception Of the stern necessities the
president said What We are purpos-
ing 10 do. therefore Is not to hamper
business. The antasonism between
business and government is over. We
are now about 20 give expression to
the best business judgment of Amer
lea, TO what we know 20 be the bust
ness conscience and honor OF the land.
The government and business men are
ready TO meet each other half way in
a common effort to square business
methods with both public opinion and
the law"
The welfare of the country de-
mands that special privilege be abol-
ished and the highway of opportunity
be thrown open TO all without preju-
dice or restraint beyond that which
common prudence and justice dictates.
1--WE desire the laws We are about to
pass said the president, "to be the
bulwarks and safeguards of industry
against the forces that have disturbed
it We are all agreed that private
monopoly is indefensible and intol-
cradle and our program is founded
upon that conviction
Even the big interests are admitting
that their position is untenable, not
only under the law but in the light Of
fairness and Justice The admission
is made reluctantly perhaps but none
theIess convincing since they are
ceasing to fight the recOnstructive
processes Of the government and more
or less gracefully yielding TO the in
evitable.
The great harm that has been done
is ample reason for the legislation
that has been enacted and for that
recommended by the president The
country has and does demand it and
the forceful manner i'm which the
president has presented this demand
should prompt congress to act speedily
and wisely.

SECOND YEAR OF
MARRIED LIFE.
BY Mabel HERBEIRT URNER.

The elevator boy, James, had been
seriously hurt. When the car fell he
was in it alone, except for the heavy
trunk he was taking up. At the fourth
floor the cable broke and the car came
down with a crash. He had been badly
cut by the shattered glass and his leg
was crushed under the trunk.
For several seasons he had been
with the hotel, and the regular sum-
mer patrons had come TO know and
like his good natured, freckled face
and cheerful GOOD morning.
And now they were getting up a
concert for his benefit Mrs. Stevens
was one of the oldest guests, and had
charge of the program, and had in
sisted that Helen should sing.
Helen had a sweet clear voice.
though she h4d-sung very little since
her marriage She had always shrunk
from singing in public, but as every
one seemed imbued with the spirit of
the concert and Of raising some money
for the injured boy, they were all
willing to do what they could. And
Helen felt that she could not be the
only one to refuse.
The Night of the Concert.
The dining room was to be cleared
of tables, the chairs arranged in rows
and the management had offered to
put up rough platform. The admis-
sion was TO be 90 cents Every one
entered into the preparations with a
zest born of the boredom and monot-
ony of a summer hotel.
Saturday, the night of the concert.
the guests were all requested TO finish
dinner by eight o'clock. so that wait
ers would have time to clear the room
by a quarter to nine, the hour ap-
pointed.
Helen was dressed in a simple, white
lingerie gown, and with her cheeks
flushed with excitement, looked very
sweet and girlish.
my dear, you look charming eff
fused Mrs. Stevens, when she ran into
Helen's room for a moment before
going down. THERE" as she stopped
to pin a white rose In Helen's soft
brown hair.
You could pass for a sweet girl

have to sing an encore. The program g

Warren is AfectiOnate.
"Oh. but I'm so nervous. I'm al
most frightened It's been so long
since I've sung at all-and before all
these people!"
"It's much easier TO, sing before

you look so sweet, ii won't matter
much how you sing. Now remember
you're fourth on the program. m

The physical may be reproduced by
artificial means. Chickens may be
Matched in an incubator and raised In
a brooder and the most cultivated taste
cannot distinguish them from the hen
raised when broiled or fricaseed. But
it requires no expert to separate home
raised from institutionaIly developed
children
And this is no reflection on the in
stitution for orphan or dependent or
defective children. Such institutions
reflect a high conception Of the duties
IF society and are second only to the
home in their facility for the devel-
opment of the best qualities OF the
young But second they must al
ways be.
No institution, no stranger indi-
viduaI can take the place of the
mother with the child. Nature de-
signed il SO and man with all his in
genuity cannot get away from it. No
institution. no stranger individual can
have the mother heart, the mother
sense and intuition for the wair, nor
can they exert the mother influence,
guidance and power of attr Etion.
Rep Germans conception OF the
needs Of society in this particular is
correct. The movement should be
national in its scope. 1t is a matter
Of national concern with which the
states will fail or be slow to adequate
ly cope.
The principle advocated in Rep.
Germans bill should prevail. 1t is of
vital Importance to the nation that
every house be preserved intact and
as it is the mother who makes the
home it should be made possible for
her to do it.

GOVERNMENT OWNERsHP.

Sen. Kenyon of Iowa makes strong
argument in favor of government
owners p of railroads in a statement
presented to the senate Tuesday The
gist Of the argument is that millions
Of dollars which are now pouring into
the pockets of comparatively few in
dividuals would revert to the Ameri-
can people as a whole and the federal
treasury
The estimates presented by Sen.
Kenyon were prepared by Clifford
Thorne. railroad commissioner of
Iowa. and have at least the semblance
OF authority. They show that a saving
of $500. 600, 900 a year could be made
TO the people of the United States by
government ownership. and that there
would be also saved to them an &C
cumulated surplus of more than
81, OOO,OOO,OOO.
The government instead of the rail-
roads would gain future "unearned in
crement" to the value of several hun
dred millions annually and further
savings could be made through the
elimination of high salaried officials.
duplication Of terminal facilities and
from the suppression of stock manip-
ulation. Freight rates would be ad-
justed largely on the basis Of cost and
not on what the traffic would bear and
the principle of public safety would
control rather than the principle OF
economy. under which the railroads
hold it cheaper to kill people than to
provide safeguards.
From an industrial and financial
point Of view the taking over OF the
railroads would be largely revolutions
airy in character and necessitate a
wide reimbursement. bat the present
agitation shows that the advisability
is being seriously considered and that
disastrous consequences are not
feared.
Outside of the financial advantages
OF government ownership the always
threatening faspect of allied interests
is regarded\as an important consid-
