II you would not be taken for nut

pecan plantations. wildcat oil schemes,
and similar unstable ventures. IL was
sound advice that leading Chicago
banker gave local bankers in an adj

people to make investments in home
industries, where the character OF the
Investments were known, as well as
the people who were back of them.
Boston newspapers find at least one
thing on which to extend congratula-
tons, and that is that during the late
policemen's tea party one ]. Barley
corn was not on deck.
A yChinaman in st. Paul was found
murdered and the police deduction is
that a tong war is responsible. Regu-
lar Sherlock Holmes stuff, for n piece
OF iron rod was found near the celes-

Even tho sugar for canning is not
available in the necessary quantities,
we are being urged to put up fruit,
that the high cost OF living next win

wife has bigger problem TO solve
now that the war is over than when
sugar was being sold on food admin

able; now il isn't.
Announcements from various com
munities tell of the temperance of
influenza cases. II would not be
strange if an epidemic of some proper

last winter, would prevail this season
the country over. But let US keep our
heads and not get panicky. That was
the advice last year and it stin holds

THE United States owes much to its
allies in Europe. They fought our war,
suffered hardships that should have
been shared by us for more than three
years before we took up our rightful
burden. For this we admittedly owe
a great debt. But We do not owe them
our own national disintegration. We
owe them moral and financial support
so long as We can give it to them
without obvious danger of damage TO
ourselves. argues the Cedar Rapids
Gazette.

THE UNIVERSAL. LANGUAGE.

The universal language, says q writer in the New York Globe, is not \oapuk nor I>s- pcrano, but moving pictures, which go eNery- where and picture everybody else on earth. Little by little they will break down those walls between nations which depend upon peoples ignorance of such matters as one anothcr's table manners.
 The film newspapers, understood equally well by Americans, the Chinese and the Pata- gomian Is the greatest international force i'll the world because 1t shows us that we are all alike. The pleasure seeking Scncgambian, trcqucnumg his IaVorlte cinema house, will hnd that q street scene n New York Is under the same sky as a street scene i'll his home tOWn he camera i'll either case will catch d young lady who turns to her escort and gIgglcS, the gOggIe-cyed man who tries to stare the camera down, the little boys who run backward to keep i'll the locus, the naughty people who pretend they know nOth- ing of any camera. The inauguration of the mayor OI Thames, England will exhibit the same sublime official dignity, the same aWe-struck crowd, the same wandering, irrelevant dog, the formal installation of the chief ol the equatorial Bahamas at the sources of the Niger The school children o1 SlOmaIiIand celebrating the Fourth Ot July Ill BlI9eWater park, the presentation oI silver loving cup to the oldest surviving DOarder at Mrs. ItNalal ,tiSher's boarding house i'll IIaCkensack, New Jersey the golden wedding celebration Of Mir, and Mrs. OegIigOo GOog- ilIoo, of Northern Alaska the big piCkerel that Uncle Ike Riddle caught in Butler s pond, the flight of the Zl9 over the Tower Ot Babel just as the theatres were letting, the re turn of Admiral Dewey from the Battle of Manila Bay, and the scene in front of the inn periaI palace i'll Berlin on the eve of the deCIa- ration of war against Belgium, Russia, France England, Italy, Peru, Siam, China, Japan and Zapataland- these events and incidents i'll the worlds history will be as familiar to the in- habitants of the renotest parts of the world as they are to the people in whose midst they actually happen.

0hc plan offered by Mr. NmStcr for the solution of the railroad problem provides for private ownership, but would bring all the into one big corporation to be closely controlled and regulated by the government Earnings up to c percent would go to the stockholders of the new federal corporation Above that amount 40 percent of the earnings would go to the employees of the railways, being divided pro rata according to their wages, 30 percent would be turned back into q fund for improvements, rolling stock, etc., and 30 percent into a bonus and merit fund for employees as a means of increasing clll- CicnCy The management of the proposed railway corporation would be vested in board of governors numbering seven mem bcrs These would be appointed bv the President of the United States, four of Whon. represent the stockholders. one selected from and representing railway labor, one would be a shipper and one would represent the gov ernmcnt, this member to be the chairman of the board The roads would be run under the regional system, the country being divided into five sections under regional directors.
 It is interesting to note that Mir. Amstcr recognizes that the wild stories which are going about concerning the failure of govern mcnt operation during the war and alter ward are mostly false. He ascribcs these tales to an organized propaganda on behalf of Wall Street financial men who are anxious, he thinks, to get their railways back into their clutches.
 The plan of railway labor is radically different from the one described above It wants the government to buy the roads out right and let the actual workers take charge of them. If there are profits they are to be divided among the workers; if losses are in- cured the government is to pay the bills Two million members of the railway brother hoods are unanimously in favor of this stcp They base their demands for a change from the old system on the same arguments which Mir. Amstcr uses.

ACCUSATION NOT NEW.

The accusation of the attorney for the railway brotherhoods charging New York ln- terests with plundering American railroads for their own enrichment contains nothing that IS new. 1t has been frequently voiced by various persons, generally Ot sOClalStlC tendencies but a few weeks ago one N. l.. Amster, president of the Investors PrOtcC- tive Association of America, made practically the same accusation. The above organization is made up of the holders of railroad seCuri- ties III the United States, men who have thelr money invested i'll railway bonds and stocks.
 MT. Alnster prepared for the senate inter- state commerce committee plan tor solving the railroad problem, which has been given serious consideration and in making his re- port he directly charged that eastern caplta~ lsts made huge fortunes by systematic plrnd- erlng railway stocks.
 In his report he said: "I challenge the advocates of private control to show me a single instance where there has been any lnd1- vldual initiative i'll railroad management dur ing the past twenty or more years. The only individual initiative we know of was n the eastern offices where directors of railroads and their highly paid counsel labored day and right to invent new methods Ot financing, u1l- derwriting and legalizing the unloading of worthless securities and railroad properties upon their own corporations at prices that wrecked their corporations, impoverished the stockholders and made fabulous fortunes for the directors and their financial allies.
 The position held by the man making these assertions gives evidence that he is not a :wearer of the red flag, that he is not a radical agitator seeking to create trouble be- tween capital and labor. He represents that class of Americans with money to invest in good securities and whose business judgment is sound and as free from bias as will be found anywhere. What he says differs from the charges made by the brotherhoods represen- tatives only in the fact that the latter uses names where MT. Amster refers to Financial allies"

POWER AND WEALTH NOT TRUE
 GOODS
(E,NChangel

'E,very virtue has its proper excellence, and the excellence and the dignity which it has it imparts immediately to every one who loves it. Thus wisdom is the highest virtue, and 1t has in it four other virtues; of which one is prudence, another temperance, the third is fortitude, the fourth justice Wisdom makes its lovers wise and prudent and moder- ate and patient and just; and it fills him who loves it with every good quality. This they who possess the power of this world cannot do. They cannot impart any virtue to those who love them, thru their wealth, if they have it not in their nature * * * Hence 1t is very evident that the rich in worldly wealth have no proper dignity, but the wealth is come to those have aught of their own. Consider now Wheth- CT any man is the less honorable because many more despise him. But if any man be the less honorable, then is every foolish man the less honorable, the more authority he has to every wise man. Hence it is sufficiently clear that power and wealth cannot make its pOssessor the more honorable. But it makes him the less honorable, when 1t comes to him, if he were not before VirtuOuS So also is wealth and power the worse, if he who possesses it be not virtuous Each of them is the more Worth- less when they meet with each other
 But you may clearly perceive that this present life is very like shadow, and in that shadow man can attain the true good If any very great man is driven from his country, or goes on his ,ord's errand, and so comes to a foreign people, where no man knows him, nor he any man, do you think his greatness can make him honorable in that land? or course it cannot. But if dignity were natural to wealth, and was it's own, or again if wealth were the rich mans own, then, it could not forsake him, and because the wealth and pow Ter are not his own, they forsake him, and be- cause they have no natural good in themselves, they go away like a shadow, or like smoke. y
