MORE THAN PLAIN LABOR.

In speech in Chicago last week
Gov. Allen OF Kansas made an obser-
vation that should not be allowed to
go into the discard at once. He said:
"If labor were in truth the basis Of
wealth. China would be the richest
nation on earth"
Yes, II is the common understanding
that the Chinaman works harder and
longer hours than anybody else. Along
with this he is about the poorest civil
lized heather on earth, and 1t is hard
I, see that his country is any better
of than himself. He has mighty little
to show for all the work he has done,
perhaps only a trifle more than lazy
people in other countries who have
conscientious scruples against ever
doing a fair days work.
In justice the Chinaman should be
about the richest in the world, would
he II labor were the sure foundation
of a superstructure of wealth. In
China they have a great lot of foun-
dation, but they have never succeeded
IN building anything on it.
II you will permit, the Chinamar
can come TO this country and lay up
store Of wealth, and this without
the enjoyment of any special adyan-
tages. We know he can do this, know
II so well there is a demand that he be
kept out. In this country he finds
something else that helps his industry
and this something else is thing thaf
usually does not go under the nam,
of labor.-Decatur (Illl Register.

CARUsO's SUCCESSOR.

The return OF Gatti-Casazza to
naturally raises again the question
who will be Caruso's successor. When
the reporters asked 1t at the pier the
wise manager replied that only time
and the public could answer; that he
is merely the manager and must wait
to see whom the public elects as su-
preme favorite. He added that there
were mo Caruso roles" his other
tenors having sung In all the operas
with which Caruso's fame is asso-
ciated.
That means that with the beginning
of the season next month will begin
the battle of the tenors. Apparently
Mr.. Gatti will cast Martinelli, Gigli
and the rest of his strong tenor staff
impartially and then wait for the ver-
dict of the box office. That will in
volve one serious nuisance for opera
goers. The claque. hired by the sing
ers to applaud them, had made itself
extensively evident for several sea-
sons. Now each tenor will be tempted
TO hire such artificial approval in an
attempt to convince the management
that he has become the darling of the
public. The attempt will be vain be-
cause the box Office is a surer baro-
meter, but 1t will be noisy and annoy
ing.
In all probability no other tenor will
be raised in a season to the position
held by Caruso. For that contin-
gency Mr.. Gatti has provided by ex-
tending the brief engagement of CALI
Curci. She will now open the sea-
son on November IA, in the familiar
but safe "Traviata," and will sing in
the first part of the season as we'll as
during the appearance of the Chicago
company in this city. and she will
pack the house whenever she sings
With her and Geraldine Farrar in the
company the box Office will not great

tenor to make a great hit.-Broolslyr

CITY JAYWALKERS.

in the other squares. Some persons
find that it is too much trouble to

There is so much that l am sure of,

Cannot disturb my happiness;

And underneath lovely sky
My children shall In safety play.
When men with sad and gloomy faces
Picture the miseries Of life,
And wonder why, since they must die.
They came into this vale of strife,
l count the splendors that are mine
The beauty OF my youngsters smile,
The happy hours with friendships fine
And say the care is all worth while.

THE a5 PER CENT.

Whenever man explains his life
failure by saying he never had
chance you are safe In assuming that
he is the type OF man who never
prepared himself to grasp opportuni-
ties when they appeared. No one has
a chance to succeed unless he places
himself in position to profit by all
turns OF luck. One of the surest
ways to be prepared is through thrift.
Roger w. Babson. the nationally
known statistlcian whose articles APP
pear in Every Evening each Sat
urday, has estimated that s5 per cent
of Americans are working for the
other 5 per cent. He further states
that most OF the per cent became
employers because they had saved
money in their early days, and We're
prepared to take over the first profit
able business which needed an injec-
tion of both money and executive abil-
ity.
Opportunities to make money le-
ultimately are on every side, provided
that a man has the nest egg which is
required. Sometimes hundred dol
lars clear of all obligations has spelled
the difference between a man obtain
ing his own business and continuing
to be low-salaried hired man the re-
mainder of his days. II was John ID.
Rockefeller who talked so eloquently
of saving the first thousand dollars
Rut It Is not necessary to even lay
aside that much in order to start on
the independence road.
No man can ride on a train without

demand as a guarantee of good faith
