Yesterday was cheerful for
those that learn from long
iists Of stock sales what the day
has done to them. Thickly
scattered were little plus signs,
every one with a meaning of
its, own.
United States Steel jumped
to l1ih at one time, settling
down to 110h. And somebody
bought $4,000 shares of it.
Other stocks behaved nicely
Tor their owners. Stock busi-
ness is a satisfactory, clean
business for those that are not
"'clean," as Wall Street puts it.
Sepding power through the
AR seems near, according to
Dr.. Alexanderson, q serious sci
enlist. II it be true that "elec-
tron tubes" can transmit the
power Of Niagara to New York
and Chicago without wires, the
news for progress is the most
important in many years.
1t would mean utilizing the
gigantic water power in Brazil,
now useless, and running ships
At sea by the great waterfalls
Of Africa. Imagine flying ma
chimes all over the earth's sur
face taking power through the
air as they fly, instead Of car
rying fuel.
:, A flying ship properly built
might 60 around the earth ten
times without coming down.
That is REAL news.
Chicago has. a new excite
ment. Bands overpowering un-
fortunate men, operating upon
them surgically, removing val
liable glands for sale to the
idle, worn-out rich. It's an in
teresting yarn, but not true.
The idle, worn-out rich draw
the line somewhere, and that
story is on the other side of
the line.
In ancient days such attacks
and Operations. were common,
based on revenge. They still
happen occasionally. AMI. such
mutilations, based on religious
fervor and the desire to live
free Of sin, have occurred often,
especially among early Christ
ians.
Origen was one of the saints
to set the difficult but praise
worthy example.
lnheriting unlimited courage
from his father, Leonides, a
Christian martyr, Saint Origen
wss influenced by the twelfth
verse of the nineteenth chapter
Of Matthew. ..s. -,
z: srhere be eunuchs which have
made themselves eunuehs for
the kingdom of Heavens sake"
y England expects a labor gov
sfnInent soon. .... =
Here, socialists and labor men,
led by Morris Hillquit, an edu-
Gated and forceful, leader. are
starting an American labor
party. .- -......
II wisely managed it will be
welcome. Every country needs
. strong radical party, As a
check on reactionary excess.
Mr.. Hillauit wants an organi-
ration 400 per cent for men
and women who toll" Very
fine, but as Voltaire said, "Iet
rs. define our terms" What Is
4 toiler, Mr.. Hillquit? John u.
Rockefeller. is one, and valuable.
He has made competition ridicu-
lous, proving it unnecessary.
That, had to come to make
radicalism useful. He has done
more! for the health of human
beings than any 1000 other
men, showing the people how to
take millions from wealth in the
ground and use it for people
above the ground.
Be sure to include among
your "toilers" the most i'm
portant builders and give them
their price. An African chief
kills q dangerous man-killing
lion. He wants fifty black
wives, and has them.
II Mr.. Rockefeller or any
body else solves a great prob
lem for you let him have fifty
or five hundred million golden
dollars II he wants them.
Men. and their money 20.
Their good work stays.
Thomas A. Edison, looking
at machines, made in early
days, could not remember why
he made them. "But I know
one thing" said he, 81 sweat
blood over every one Of them"
There's a recipe for success,
SWEATING BLOOD. Dante
nut the same thought otherwise
more than six hundred years
ago, Work as nature works,
in fire."
II you don't sweat and burn
as you work, nothing comes Of
