The free man is a representative man,
and, conversely, the representative man
is a free man. Now who is a represen-
tative man? The representative mar of
a community is the man. who has always
done his level best fos the interest of the
community in whichihe lives. He must
be a gentleman seven days in the week
and twelve months in the year. To be a
representative man, a man must not be
owned body and soul by any fraction OF
the community; nor can he be represen-
tative through any olher means but his
owl intellectual attalnments; neither can
his intellectual status be raise higher by
any other source other than himself.
Once Rev. Henry Ward Beecher told a
Virginia audience that it was the natural
law that brains must exert the greatest
influence on civilization, and that it
could not be changed even by the Vir-
ginia Legislature, which opened with
prayers and closed with the benedictiou".
Who is a representative man !? READ
HISTORY AND ANSWER. Whether a
member of Society or not the representa-
tive man must be a member of the arts
tocrary, and there is only one aristocracy
only one recognized by scholars, and
apostles Of democracy the aristocracy
of Lincoln, Blyden, Wendell Phillips,
Booker Washington, Roosevelt, in fact of
every man and woman who have done
anything for humanFty-in the phraseol-
ogy of Emerson the only aristocracy is
that Of intellect" IS a condition prece-
dent, as lawyers say, to being a repre-
sentative man you must not only repre-
sent SOMEBODY but SOMETHING.
No matter what you call yourself or sue
coed in getting others call you. in tho end
it is your real worth which counts.
WHAT ARE YOUR COLORS? Are
you in the jungle ct slavery or in the
plain of freedom ? DO you believe right
makes might when you are right, but
might makes right when you have
might ? Do you assume a thank-God-I-
am-not-ik other-men attitude, preach"
cooperation, but have no country save
SELF, and no flag save THE AL
MIGHTY DOLLA2 Do you think
more of the so-ealled Great" or

You are only free, you are only o

The free soul loves the truth. BE

Gurus, and you will enjoy real free

is the free man who the truth makes
free and all others are slaves besides. :"
70 the representative man envy, treach-
cry, caste, and selfishness are unknown
entities. In the beautiful plain of free
dom stands the representative man, his
vision of life broadened by his desire to
do all that is in his power for his own
people, his own country, and the only
way you of the jungle can get this
broadness of vision-this true concep-
ton of what really constitutes freedom
and representations to fight your
own petty weaknesses to TAKE OFF
THE SHACKLES EVERYWHERE.
WHO is A SUCCESS.
You point to the man who has wealth
as a success; you turn with pride to
the educated, or to who you believe
is educated as a success; as you OH
servea how heads of departments and
business concerns run affairs with what
appear to you as clock-like regularity
you wonder at such success; all Of which
may be right, still 5B the last onoIus5s
it is the man who does his duty to his
fellowman and his countryside man
whose education has really educated him
The Representative Man, if you please
who is a success.
1t may not be within your power to
do great things for your country. but
if you want to appreciate the great
things which can and eventually will he
done, and at the same time learn how
to do the small things which you have
the power to do in a great manner,
then get THE ASSET-the "SENE QUA

MOORE
Bluntly, but nevertheless faithfully
true has this man Moore proclaimed
a great truth. Gold, silver, pomp,
vanity, all are as nought when compar-
ed with freedom which is the one thing
worth striving for. Not to be free is
to be handicapped, and to go through
life handicapped is to miss all that is
worth while living for and to live in
vain. If we want to live larger and
nobler lives-if we want to be repre-
sentative ~men--there are certain assets
which must be reckoned with. Candor
and Stamina, for instance, are valua-
BILE assets, but the assets of assets is
FREEDOM. Pity the man who has not
this asset, no matter his wealth, or
education, or political connections, or
social eminence-PITY HIN.
What Constitutes Freedom.
You may be educated and still not
Tree. MANY an 0uuCdL0u person is
but a Janus-faced apology of human
ity. for their education does not edu-
cate; it is of the brass and tinsel
variety rather than the adamant. Truly
has it been said that there is education
and EDUCATION.
You may be rich and yet not free.
Money is an excellent thing; up to a GER
tain point it does help TO a better and
larger life, but that is only when the
possessor of it has a SANE VIEW of the
use of money. Surely l. Estrange does
but state the simply fact when he ayers
that money does all things; if it gives
out; it takes away; it makes honest men
and knaves; fools and philosophers.
You may have influence, be the head
of a department or business and still be a
slave. Consider a man working unGer a

The mansion erected and occupied
by Governor Stevens is still standing
in a good state of preservation. About
three years ago his son, General Haz-

otherwise protected from decay.
Many of the personal effects, such as
furniture and other objects used by
the governor, could be secured and
placed in the house as nuclus OF an
interesting museum. His sword, and
the old flag which he was bearing
afloat at the head of his men when
killed on the field of battle, might
be acquired.
Relics of subsequent governors

also be added. Think what this would
