There's a Yankee landlord on the
Maine coast who keeps his old hulk
of a summer hotel filled every year
with well-to-do guests from the cities,
who pay high prices for the wonderful
scenery and the good meals, philosoph-
ically accepting the bleak rooms, the
shabby wall paper, and the thread
bare upholstery. A New York man
asked him toward the close Of the sea
son how he had been doing.
WAL the Yankee replied, I've
just about going over the books. and
we've netted about $4,000 this sea-
son. / reckon if we do as we'll anoth-
er year I'll paper the parlor!."

The causes of industrial unrest

of endless investigations or sudden
willingness to hold conferences.
1t is not their money that these
lords of commercial Virtue are
spending, but the withheld wage

John D. Rockefeller to- 10 years
has been vested with what is vir-
tually power of life and death over
$4,000 men and their families. This
power came to him through no
healthful process of struggle, but
entirely through the fact that he
was the son of his father-a gift
that marked the attainment of his
maturity.

Barnes wants to try again, and hints
at the court being ag'in' him, dozen

The facts seem to be that the jury be-

conditions with which Mr.. Barnes was

The cost of the trial is placed at

lie, the trial has been worth an in
