this country whose object is anarchy
and the destruction Of law, but l
would not meet their efforts by max
ing myself a partner in destroying
law. / despise and hate their pur-
poses as much as any man, but l
respect the ancient processes of JUS
tice, and I would be too proud not
to see them done justice, however,
wrong they are. And so l want to
utter my earnest protest against any
manifestation of the spirit of law
lessness anywhere or in any cause.
Why, gentlemen, look what it means.
We claim to be the greatest demo
cratic people in the world and de-
mocracy means first of all that we
can govern ourselves. If our men
have not self control then they are
not capable Of that great thing which
we call democratic government
"A man who takes the law into his
own hands is not the right man to
cooperate in any form of or develop
ment Of government and institutions.
And some of the processes by which
the struggle between capital and
labor are carried on are processes
that come very near to taking the
law into your own hands. I do not
mean for moment to compare them
with what I have just been speak
ing Of, but I want you to see that
they are mere graduations of the
manifestations of the unwillingness
to cooperate, and the fundamental
lesson of the whole situation is that
we must not only take common coun-
Gil, but that we must yield to and
obey common council Not all Of
the instrum entalities for this are at
hand. l am hopeful that in the very
near future new instrumentalities
may be organized by which we can
see to 1t that various things that are
now going on shall not go on. There
are various processes of the diultion
OF labor and the unnecessary substi-
tuition of labor and bidding in differ
ent markets and unfairly upsetting
the whole competition of labor, which
ought not to go on, mean now ont he
part OF the employers-and we must
1nterject into this some instrument
tally cooperation by which the fair
thing will be done all around. | am
hopeful that some such instrumental
ties may be devised, but whether thew
are or not we must use those that we
nave and upon every occasion where
1t Is necessary to have such an IN
strumentality originated upon that
occasion II necessary. So If my fell
low citizens, the reason that | came
away from Washington is that
sometimes get lonely down -there-
there are so many people in Wash
'ington who know things that are not
SO; and there are so few people in
Washington who don't know ANYTHING
about what the people of the United
States are thinking about have
to come away to get reminded of the
rest OF the country; / have to come
away and talk to men who are up
against the real thing. And say to
them:
I am with you If you are with
me- And the only test of being with
me is not to think about me person
ally, at all But merely to think of
me as the expression for the time
being OF the power and dignity and
hope of the American people,"

HOW TO USE COAL PROPERLY
House Should Not Be Allowed to Be-
come So Warm That Doors and
Windows Are Opened.

If you want to save coal never al
low the house to get so hot that you
have to throw open the windows and
doors. Thermostats are cheap these
days. They automatically slow down
the fire when the temperature is ris-
ing to the uncomfortable point.
To get the most out of the heat in
coal, the house air should be changed
once an hour. Arrangements for such
a change should have been made when
the house was built. But if that was
overlooked when the house was built
you can get the change of air in sew
eral ways. says a writer in the Ameri-
can Magazine. do not believe in get

arranged for, or If the cost is too
great, l find that storm windows are
relatively cheap. Then, air slots which
let in air when you want it are good.

SULTAN IS FOND OF READING
Turkeys Ruler for Weeks at Time
Shuts Himself in Private Suite,
Surrounded With Books.

Although the sultan of Turkey is
reputed to be the LATEST potentate in
Europe, he is passionately fond Of
reading. For weeks at a time he will
sndt himself in his private suite, sur
rounded by literature of all kinds
classical works, novels, magazines and
newspapers. With the exception or
his personal attendants and ministers
of state, no one is allowed in the i'm
perial sanctuary during the sultan s
literary Sits"
But the sultan is at something Of
disadvantage, says a British weekly,
because his knowledge of European
languages is limited.
In order to overcome the difficulty
he employs translation Office. Here
there are officials who speak all the
languages of Europe and the East.
They read all the political and Illus
trated newspapers of Importance, and
translate extracts from them for the
sultan. There are IS superior trans
latOrs, called dragOman secretaries, in
that office, and their pay is from ten
to forty Turkish pounds monthly.
They do not limit their translations
to political publications; they trans
late novels and romances in all lam
guages for the Sultan, and many
thousand volumes of their work have
found their way into the imperial lib
rary. They are all written on thick,
white rOval octave gilt-edge paper,
and are fastened together with
green and red ribbons by the transla-
tors themselves.
After circulating through the harem
they are preserved in the library. The
sultan's favorite reading is criminal
rOmances. He subscribes to all news
papers that contain reports of the
proceedings in the law courts, and
there is no famous writer of stories
of crime in any language whose works
have not been translated for him.
