acres who think that the American efficient" idea was wrapped up in Huges will not deceive themselves into thinking that that policy of in dustrial efficiency is going to suffer the Shadow because Hughes himself has been eclipsed.
 There is nothing surer than that this industrial efficiency is bound to be forced forward. The employers every where are getting it into their heads that with the coming of a close to the war, there must be more and more efficiency and speed ing up.
 It is the most extraordinary fea- ture of the American efficiency ex- pert that he concludes by grabbing a stop watch and eliminating super fuous motions rushing production to highest pitch, he is accomplishing a more perfect industrial system.
 Now it is not to be denied that wonderful things have been accomp- lished by these efficiency systems, but at cost to the human material that has been subjected to them is most unfortunate.
 In this therefore the American ex. perts have yet lot to learn. They have not found the secret of German efficiency in the speeding up methods which are so urgently advised. What they will have to do is to devote time to improving the human mate rial as an intelligent, educated ma terial if they wish to succeed. They will have to abandon their automa- ton conception of the labor factor and realize it as a thinking factor ot most acute and accurate adjustment, easily affected by environment and one that cannot suffer any constant high pressure efficiency as is pro- posed without disastrous results.
 The fact is overlooked that the high efficiency of the German pro- ducer is not accompanied by the | high pressure work American eff ciency experts believe they must in | stal. The German insists upon edu- cation and the rest comes naturally. The American firm fights as shy as possible of the workers who knows he fears the agitator

The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-11-11

Charles P. Orr refused to grant final naturalizations papers to Stephen Mihals at Braddock, Pa.
 The reason given is unusual to say the least but very significant. stephen was not even reputed anarchist; there was nothing to show his character and mental equipment were not of the best. But the Judge refused papers to him because last May he had been with others engaged on strike in that same town of Braddock and was strong unionist.
 Let us clearly understand the req. son for this. Orr considers hintsel! the real simon pure dispenser of Justice. Orr identifies his interests with that of the Industrial Overlords of Braddock When Mihals struck against the Industrial Overlords, he struck against the State in Orr's esti- nation, and was guilty of disloyal- ty and rebellion. He therefore could not make good citizen.
 l It has como to this that all author ity is lining up with employing in tersts, and there are none evidence this SO completely as the arrogant Charles P. Orrs, even though they do wear the ermine of the judici-

THE. HYPHEN VOTE.

The result of the election will be claimed, wrongly of course, in some quarters as a significant manifesto, tion of the German-American vote in the great strength which Hughes showed in the eastern staes. Be- cause it was a neck and neck race, it may be held that the German vote going solidly for Hughes, prevented q walk-over for Wilson. In fact what the election does show is that it was found impossible to organize the vote along any racial or hyphen- ated lines. The mere fact that Will son boiled so strongly shows that.
 Normally the United States is a republican nation. Only when a split occurred in the ranks and the seces- sionists established the progressive party was it possible for the demo- crats to shake the solid grip which the G. 0. P. had upon the political power.
 This year there was no such split. and Hughes for that reason should have been elected. Had the German American or the Irish-Amerlcan lined up against Wilson, Hughes election would have been certain.
 The results shows that no sucli thing took place.
 It is very important to observe that even in politics, an effort to in- feet a race or national question has been a failure.
 The manner in which this entire effort collapsed is seen m the defeat of such men as Senator Maritime or New Jersey and Go"erRor Dunne ot Illinois. Both these men were ac- cepted as friendly to the German viewpoints; they were supported most strongly by German or pro- German papers and when Maritime "l.d Dunne won in the primaries oi New Jersey and Ii.noia. it was hail ed in the Fatherland, the organ Of the Germanists, as a most distinct victory for them.
 In spite of this, then, the dcieai of Maritime was convincing and over, whelming. in New Jersey and that of Dunne no more or less positive in Illinois. Numerous other examples of this kind could be shown. all tend ing to reveal the fact that this cleo tion was not affected at all by the German-American or lrish-Amer can vote, as far as that vote went against Wilson.
 It is far more likely that the .act that during Wilson's term there was peace and that Wilson was not ag- excessively bellicose, that during Will sons term there had been some sort of an alliance with the executive of the American Federation of Labor, and the Adamson act had won for him enormous union support, that these things in fine had far more to do with the election than any other factors.

Tanlac Has Been .
Worth $500 to -. -
Him, He Says
RICHARDSON DECLARES 1.-TWO
YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE
/. TANLAC RESTORED MY
HEALTH"

A few days ago, Frank Richardson,
well known employe Of the Byrd
Printing Company, residing at 81
West Lake St., Atlanta, came into
Jacobs Pharmacy and in relating
his experiences with Tanlac said:
"About eighteen months ago, while
7 lived in Knoxville, Tenn, made
the statement that wouldn't take
$500 for the good Tanlac did me.
Well, I just want to tell you still
feel the same way about it. I suffer-
ed with the most terrible case OF
stomach trouble, which had followed
me for seven long years and pulled
me down almost to the point Of de-
spair. Tanlac gave me relief when
everything else had failed and l can
never forget it.
"My diet was restricted to. milk,
and occasionally a soft boiled egg,
and nwouldn't dare touch meats OF
any kind. I was habitually consti-
pated and extremely nervous. No
matter what would eat, would al
ways have an awful pain in my stom-
Each and this, with my stomach, kept
me awake for hours every night. My
condition alarmed my wife and I. was
almost at the turn of the road where
j hadn't strength to follow my voca-
ton.
."I read about Tanlac helping so
many people who were afflicted as,
was, and I determined to try it. !
started to the drug store one even
ing for my first bottle, and / was so
weak from loss of strength and en-
|ergy that I tainted. I managed to
get back home after so long and
started on my Tanlac, and the first
few doses made me feel better. l
continued improving, and, after tax
ing the fourth bottle, there was a
most wonderful change in my condi-
ton. I found that could eat just
anything I wanted and, for the first
time in years, I could eat boiled ham
and potatoes and felt no i'll after
effects. The pains all left my stom-
ach, my nervousness disappeared and
I could sleep like child. My trou-
bles all went away with those few
bottles of Tanlac and left me stron-
ger and more energetic than I had
been in years. Yes, sir, eighteen
months have passed since Tanlac so
wonderfully restored my health, and
it gives me pleasure to tell you that
have no return of any of my old
troubles to this good day, and have
kept my average weight all along.
Tanlac made life q real pleasure to
me, and I go about my work with a
feeling that reminds me of the days
of my young manhood"

U. S. Autos Run Cheaply.

In Farm and Fireside we read: "Tht
Office of public roads, which is part OF
the L. S, department of agriculture, has
used three low priced ears in supervising
maintenance of the Washington Atlanta
highway These machines have fur
nished an excellent opportunity for Sc
curing accurate figures on the cost of
operation. The cars were in use all OF
the year 1915.
1.-The total mileage of the three ma
chimes was over 80, 900 miles. Two of the
cars ran over $4,000 miles each during the
year, and the cost per mile in one case
was 3.97 cents and in the other 4.07 cents.
The other car ran l6,2sS miles and cost
AIS cents per mile. Roughly speaking,
the cost of running light car may be
said to be between four and five cents a
mile"
"These figures include the cost of over
hauling all the cars, also storage charges,
which aggregated $40.
"The greatest item in all cases was
that of miscellaneous expense. After
that came gasoline, which cost about
cent mile and was about quarter of
the total cost. Tire castings, lubricating
oil, and miscellaneous tire costs were
next in Importance. Grease was the
most insignificant thing of all, costing
but one thirtieth of a cent per mile. The
were found to be consider
ably cheaper than livery service.

While expressing graceful appreciation
of the work which Mason S. Stone did al
the head of the Vermont public schoo
system, the union school superintendent
of Vermont gave to his successor, Milo
Z. Hillegas, most cordial welcome to
Vermont and promised him their most
cordial 60 cooperation to the end that the
public school interests of Vermont might
be materially advanced. Their announce
ment that they ere open minded with re-
spect to school matters indicates that
they are ready TO follow along the lines
which may seem reasonable. This is en-
couraging, as there must be close CO.
operation between the directing head and
the superintendent in order TO get the
best possible results. DR., Hillegas must
have been pleased by that expression of
readiness to cooperate, as it will serve
to make his problems somewhat easier Of
solution.

CURRENT COMMENT
DR.. Flexner's Statement.

DR.. Simon Flexner of the Rockefeller
institute has presented to the public Ii
simple and understandable form a state
ment of all that science knows concern
ing the scourge, thought of which fills Sc
many minds. Means should be taken to
place it in the hands of every person
that can be induced to accept and read it
Here is not matter where headlines
furnish complete enough information. No
newspaper summary of the contents OF
the message is an adequate substitute
for the message itself.
The best hope of checking the disease
is not in anything that the doctors can
personally do. 1t is necessary to have
public education in the widest possible
degree and then action in accord with
the instruction of that education. The
germs are usually distributed by dis
charge from the mouth or nasal passages.
They can be spread not merely by those
actually suffering from the disease, but
by adults who give no visible signs of it.
The inference is clear that the person
who spits or sneezes in a free way Ill
public places is more than ever a pest.
In every household attention should be
paid to the behavior of noses, and care
exercised TO keep hands clean. Pains
taking will save lives and gripping for
life. Here is something with respect
to which no sensible person will sneer at
science as a tedious old fool.
Ii there were monkeys enough to pro-
vide an adequate supply of serum it IS
probable that general immunizing inocu
lation would be feasible. This being the
case il would seem desirable TO increase
our imports from Africa and South
America and to adopt a new style OF
pet II the lap dog population could be

il is probable there would be MONKEYS
enough TO furnish serum laboratories
with supplies.

Devotes His Life to Saving the Wild
flowers

| Farm and Fireside has a description OF
a man who is doing more than any other
that we know of TO save wildtlowers in
danger of extinction
"When he isn't inspecting apiaries in
his war on bee diseases" this paper tells
us. Crank c. Pellett Iowa state bee in
speetor, is rescuing wild flowers from the
destructive hands OF his fellow 1owsons,
A half-ac plot on his little farm is
used exclusively as a wild flower pre-
serve, and there are more varieties of
wild flowers and plants growing in this
small field than can be found in almost
any garden in the country. Some of
these flowers have become extremely
valuable because of the fact that they
have practically disappeared from the
fields and timberlands OF the state. The
state has suffered an immense loss be-
cause of this ruthless destruction of its
native flowers. Mr.. PELLET believes, and
he is preserving all Of the species until
such time as the farmers begin to realize
their mistake and are anxious TO make
amends by repopulsting the roadsides
with honey producing plants.

such a question to me, sir?' was stern.

But the patrolman had followed
along and now came up and demanded
If the old man had license to peddle.
