While the public mind is taken up with the question of military preparedness 1t win not be amiss 60 consider the thoughts Of Plato four centuries before the Christian era upon the same subject It must be understood that ever since history began men have been divided on this issue and the arguments ad' vanced by Bryan on one side and Congressman Au- gustus P Gardner upon the other hoary with not years but aeOns This is how Plato rected the pres. ises in his work The Statesman" being moved by ,he contentious Of that day.
 ..The whole course Of life suffers from tho dis order For the orderly class always ready to lead
 peaceful life and do their business; this Is their way of living with all men at home. and they are equally ready to keep the peace with foreign states And on account ot this ondness of theirs for peace which Is often out Of season where their influences prevail they become by degrees unwarlIke. and bring mp their young men to be like themselvcs they are at the command Of others and hence in few years they and their children and the whole city often i'm perceptiby from the condition of freemen Into that of slaves"
 This may seem an unanswerable argument for the mnitarsts but the sapent old Greek continues: What now the case with the more courageous na turesg Are they not always melting ther country to go Co war owing to their excessive love Of military life? Their enemies are many and mighty. and if they do not ruin their cities they enslaye and subject them to their enemies Here Is the same end reached by a different path
 The solution advanced by Plato was to be found in wise and temperate leadership Those natures not possessed oi temperance and manlness and which carried away Of necessity through evil nature to commit injustice and violence should be exterminated by death or punished by exile and public disgrace. Those who wallow in baseness and Ignorance should be bowed under the yoke of slavery Under the form our government Of these matters of force could be applied Therefore. only the recommendation of wise leadership be acted upon. In turn it has only to consider Plato's wisdom in advising the mid de course between svpne nonresstance and rucuent bodness

 Long Trips Required
 ''The suits filed in Minneapolis in due time will be set for trial This means that the managers Of these properties with their shift bosses, su- perintendents and other expert wit nesses, at an expense of several thousand dollars, must make seven trips from Alaska to Minneapolis to try these suits.
 "The irritating part Is that the suits are filed against men who. in most instances. can m afford to de- fend them. Mine foremen, as class, are not wealthy Some Of them save few thousand dollars. Should a company allow a suit against one of its foremen to so undefended or to be lost by default, a Judgment would follow. the foreman's wages would be garnisheed under the judgment, and his hopes of saving a competency for his old ago destroyed. The suits should be filed-if filed at all--di- rectly against the mining companies lf there is any responsibility 1t should rest upon the company itself, not up- on some foreman who is doing the best he can to save few dollars. To file suits against the workman Is neither fair nor just"

 Lawyers who specialize in personal damage suits are creating much trou- ble for the mine operators of Alaska. and, in some instances are actually hampeuring development Of the coun- try, according to Barton l.. Thane manager of the Alaska Gastlneau nine. The personal damage special ists have conceived the idea of filing suits against the foremen of the mines for trial in the various parts of the United States the farther away from Alaska the better. said Mir. Thane. today.
 Thane has just finished trying Q personal damage suit filed against Paddy O'Neil. formerly of the Gas tineau. who left the company's em- pioy two years ago. The case against the company had already been adju- dicated in Alaska Seven suits have been filed against tho foreman Of the Treadwell group of mines and three suits are to be tried not in Alaska. but in Minneapolis.
 Although every possible precaution against accident is taken" said Mr. Thane, "the personal equation can. not be overcome. Worl1men, in spite of warnings and instructions and dismissals, will not exercise proper care.
 Liable In Other States
 ''The mine operators Of Alaska, and others, despite the opposition of Q large number Of lawyers, succeeded in securing through the Territorial Legislature workman's compensa- ton act, but we are still subject to damage suits under the laws of oth. CT states.
 The mine operator naturally has to stand by his fore=cen against whom these suite arc filed Take the case filed against O'Neil as an Illustration.

Talks on Thrift
Your Business Ability

Thirty per cent of the men who fail
in business do so because they lack
the know how" They have no bust
ness ability. In the previous talk we
have endeavored to show that the
first essential when a man enters in
business and borrows money, or seeks
credit, is business character, and that
this character is more than honesty.
Of all risky credit, the worst is that
which has merely honesty back of it
However honest a man may be, if he
lack the ability to make good" he
cannot pay; for good intentions pay
no debts. Banks are turning down
loans by the hundred that are backed
by honesty only. The world is full
Of honest men,-so honest that they
wouldn't take a paper from a new
stand, or ride in a trolley gratis, but
are down and out because they lacked
the ability to make a business go.
We put no discount upon the i'm
portant element Of honesty, but logic
will quickly demonstrate that unless
back of honesty there is ability the
enterprise is sure to fail. Many a
business has been left in a healthy
state by father to son, only to go
to pieces because the son did not in
herit the fathers ability and could
not see that it was necessary to buy
or acquire it.
Therefore the second thing the
banker expects to find in your bust
ness life is business ability. This is
easily demonstrated by your past per-
formances. Your Advertising, your
store your dress, your bank account,
your energy, your delivery wagon
all carry evidence of how well you can
do. Many a business man has been
eking out miserable existence, sit
ting around, waiting for something to
turn up, hoping something will come
to the town to make business better,
having ten places for every dollar
he gets his hands on, half fed and
poorly clothed, honest to the core, but
lacking the push to make a business
succeed. The banker will not lend
to such a fellow. He lacks the es-
sential element of ego"
You may argue that ability is in
herited, or that it comes from educa-
ton, and excuse yourself. Bosh!
Every man gets the education he
wants, if not in school, then by him
self. If you haven't ability and can't
acquire it, you can buy it in the other
fellow. Brains are always for sale
at price. And the man who lacks
business ability, and cannot see the
necessity of applying himself to ac-

quire it, and has no money to buy it
(many great men have been made so
by the crowd they gathered around
them) had better not be a seeker of
credit at well managed bank, for
out of such loans come the losses.
Capatilizing your honesty by coup
ling it with ability, and make your
ability valuable by devoting it to hon.
est ends. Be on the level, but be very
busy while you are on the level.
After all, thrift is merely the abil-
ity to do-to earn; and earning, to
save. The ability that gets man
nowhere financially is a misdirected
ability; for the man who applies him
self to definite end, and is honest in
his application saves money as a nat
ural sequence; and when you ask your
banker to lend you money, his first
question will be: "Have you any of
your own?" If you can't take care
of your money, what assurance has ne
that you will judiciously use the
money he lends you? Character and
capacity-the two big c's of credit,
but leading to capital, the last big
