from Police Headquarters.
Mr.. Patterson, Of Austin, Nichols
& Co., in discussing the strike last
night, said:
"a cut has been made of from IL n
to ID per cent throughout departments
of our business. 1t has been necessi-
tated by general business readjust
ment. All other employees of the
company accepted the cut as a neces-
sary condition. The drivers and help

This explains our application for
police guards"

Following the strike, which was
launched shortly after noon, there
were dem STATIONS of hostility at the
shipping headquarters of several of the
firms involved. 1t was then that ap-

the committee.
A meeting of drivers was said to be
scheduled for last night, but no report
was received of the proceedings of the
gathering. Representatives of the men
said their opposition to the proposed
reduction in pay had been known by
the managers of all interests involved,
and that the men had been treated per-
emptorily and unjustly.

Did your birthday happen to fall
within or near that time?
On October 81, 1894, little child
died. There is scientific basis for
the theory that this child's spirit
pursued continuous existence on
earth and experienced another
physical birth about July 22-os,
1895.
This theory can be established
only by practical demonstration
and rigorous test method has
been devised for that purpose.
Such demonstration will throw
new light on number of human
problems which seem impossible
of solution at present.
Inquiries, suggestions, honest crit
icisms, will receive every cour-
tesy within my power. The child
was my brother.

THE CATS HANGOVER

A good deal might be written about the former
governor of this state who is now wanted by both
state and federal authorities, on charges of bribery
and peonagc, respectively, but what's the useP
The Cats episode is, or ought to be, closed
chapter Florida can not afford to remember
that he ever was its governor.
Perhaps the present prosecutions are well
enough in their way-to teach him there is such
thing as punishment after DEATH if nothing else
but he is worth about the same space as any other
unfortunate who happens to fall within the COM
prchensivc clutches of the law.
The lesson, if any. which the public should
take TO heart is not what moralsts would declare
it 10 be. 1t may be summed up in two words.
Avoid freaks" When any man departs very
far from the normal, Intellectually or morally. the
best thing TO do is to let him alone. He is always
dangerous to fool with. He may be a superman.
Such is not needed He may be genius Moth
ing is more dangerous in Office. He may be
saint He would die of loneliness and leave
desoate. He may be reprobatc, a pervert,
cold-booded hypocrite. a designing rascal or any
ether type of undesirable. In any event pass
him up.
The law Of averages is the higher law" The
best man for almost any job is the average man,
because, Ioath as we are to admit it, the average
man is capable of filling almost any job, if he
tries.
Therefore, when a man comes along who thinks
differently, talks differently, bases his appeal on a
IL L
he ought to explain, and butts into political eau
cuses when he ought to be preaching, remember
Cats and gently but firmly pass him up.

THE BOY AND THE AUTOMOBILE

Gainesville News.)
The superintendent of the Cleveland high school
has issued warming to parents about permitting
school children too free OF the family auto
mobile. Might riding he declares, has be-
a menace to the morals of the boys and
girls"
In many towns nowadays, the high school
grounds filled with parked machines Where
dependable young people drive in from long dis
tances, this may be a help toward securing an
education But many of the boys, whose fathers
walked miles to school, have got that they
must have the to take them half mile. Per-
haps they feel they need it to take their girl
chums out on "petting parties"
1t is fine thing for young folks to become
skilled in the use of automobiles Yet they should
remember that their leg muscles meant for
use, that gasoline and tires cost money, and that
counting can be done with entire success on their
best girls parlor sofa.

MAIL ROBBERIES

Once man could send letter this wide con-
tnent across, and he didn't need to sweat or
walk the floor through fear of loss We had faith
in Uncle Sammy the guardian of the mail, and
the robbers fate was clammy who would lift
uncle's kale. Oft | mailed million dollars to
some creditors of mne-men who dealt in socks
and collars or in hops of kickess wine-and they
always got the plumber the right and proper
day; it was then thing of wonder if kopeck
went astray. Then the robber told his fellow
when they planned a crib to slam, "Steal from
any other fellow-do not steal from Uncle Sam;
thieves have tried in countless numbers that old
graft without avail for our Uncle never slumbers
and he never quits trail" But the robbers now
are busy swiping mail from Uncle Sam, and he's
looking panied and dizzy and helpless as a
clam Every day a fortunes taken from the
mails. the nation greves, and the sleuths bring
home no bacon when they go to pinch the thieves.
Every day thieves make killing. stealing valued
postal cards, and | fear to mail a shilling, as
do all the other bards

THE DAY BEGINS
(By S. E. Kiser.)

It's morning in the world; the night
Gives way at last, with all its ills
The first rays of the new days light
Begin to glow upon the hills;
Foul shapes that filled mems souls with fear
Dissolve and shrink and disappear.
Race-hate and prejudice remain
To skulk where darkening shadows fall.
And bigotry and lust-of-gain,
Leave Shiny traces where they crawl.
But, as the Frightening sunlight spreads.
They cover and cringe with lowered heads,
The vague and terrifying wrath
OF superstition fades away,
And men accept higher faith
To serve them through the dawning day
The faith of all-embracing good
That is to come through brotherhood.
It's morning in the world, at last,
The hills turn rosy in the dawn;
The long and fearsome night is past;
Wisdom is waking with yawn
Effulgence falls on spire and slope
The day begins-and there is hope

HOGS AMONG HOGS
(Florida News.)

The legal methods being taken by city and
state governments to curb the rent hogs should,
if successful, have an important bearing upon the
general reduction of prices.
In the large cities probably great majority
of the laboring classes are renters. They do
not own their own homes.
When he is curbed it should not be difficult to
rent hogs boost their rents to impossible figures
it is but natural that the occupants of these
houses and apartments should insist upon wages
sufficient to meet the strain.
1t is just such conditions that keep prices up
and will pre-ent any apprcciabo decline as long
as these conditions exist. OF all of the profteers
who have cursed this country the rent hog is
probably the worst.
When he is surbed it should not bedifficut to
bring other prices down to a reasonable basis.

Richard Hooker editor OF the Springfield

day, said that what the world needs most right
now is good laugh. In a lecture course founded

TREE CULTURE

American people can always be counted upon
to get wise before it is too late, but they are too
well bred to get there ahead of time. Therefore,
when we read column after column of stuff about
the danger Of forest destruction, the awful fate
of China, and the woes that would encrcle tim
beress nation, we feel perfectly sure that in some
way the tree will be spared
Much of the reforestation talk has in mind
something quite distinct from the actual restoration
of trees. 1t is an appeal to the government to
acquire large areas and hold them at its own ex-
pense for the benefit of the lumber trust That
is exactly why with all its plausibility, niney-hve
per cent of the conservation talk falls fiat.
The forests, however, must be preserved The
future supply CT timber must be taken care of.
The ground must be protected from erosion and
drought. And the whole thing can and will be
done when the country devises scheme of max
ing it worth while to do it. That all that is re-
CURED Men move in accordance with economic
laws They do what pays. And when crop of
trees pays as well as a crop of corn it will be
raised.
Undoubtedly that is the solution. Public own
ership-timber trust conservation may help some
but only when the land owners come to realize the
value of tree-growing and taking care of the idle
portions of their land will reforestation take place
on a scale sufficient to be of genuine Importance
Public ownership will no more restore the forests
than it will bring back the hemp fields to Kentucky.
