PELLETS
BY DR.. w. F. THOMSON

The ragweed's in the garden,
Its pollen's in the breeze
Drat! the bloomin' ragweed
That makes n Teller snceze.
Spare the rod and spoil the
Sabbath.
A walters no safer than the state
of his health.
Hesitate to vaccinate and you'll
mediate where they isolate.
When the babies begin to die
look for the cause in the milk
supply.
In these days Of doubtful liquor,
1t is better to be bone dry than
stone blind.
Your doctor keeps you from
over-heating here; your preacher
keeps you from over-heating here
after.
Where thousands drink from the
public cup, we're sure to mark the
death-rate up.
Speaking of house flies, it takes
25 fly eggs, placed end to end, to
measure one inch, and a single fly
will lay "a inches OF eggs during
a summer. Thirty days after the
eggs are Matched. all daughter flies
will initiate their mother. Quick,
watson, the pencil!

Coal and rail strikes are the least of

Only time will tell whether Lloyd

Apparently the wires out of Warsaw
have been cut. Lenine hasn't died for

1t is almost unnecessary to explain that
no one ever went on sympathetic strike
out of sympathy for the public.
An account of bumper crop of pota-
toes in Wisconsin says "a low price is
feared" 1t does not sound like a fair

REWARDS FOR THE BRAIN.

Announcement is made that since an
accounting was filed by the executors,
Theodore Roosevelt's estate has been in
creased $4,000 by the payment of book
royalties accrued before his death but
only recently paid. 1t is probable the
Roosevelt heirs will receive income for
many years from this source. Good books
live and are in demand long after death
claims their authors.
Mark Twains estate received one re-
cent year from the subscription publisher
of his works over $4,000. One book of
adventure first published almost SO years
ago goes big" among the boys of today
and must be source of large profit to
the authors heirs, if they have managed
to retain an interest in it.
Book copyrights are valuable property,
provided the works have value. 1t is
just that the author have what they earn,
and his heirs after him. But this is con-
trary to the theory of not few of the
most vociferous preachers on human
rights" These people would count the
author out and give the rewards to the
men who had a hand in manufacturing
the material book. These are the work
ers," they think. Production is the work
of hands alone, to them.
But no hand ever was useful for more
than fighting and scratching unless it
was directed by a brain; unless somebody
thought out processes by which hands
might transform raw materials into con.
sumable products. Authors of books make
work for thousands and they are entitled
to the major profits arising from their
work. The principle runs true in all Gre
alive activities.

THE SENIORITY ISSUE A BOGY.

One of the terms of President Har-
5inq's proposal to recent conference OF
railway executives contained provision
10 the effect that all employees no" on
strike were to be returned TO their Tor
mer positions with seniority anu other
rights unimpaired. The railway executives
rejected this proposal on the ground tn ii1
they were obligated to keep taltn WIN
The men who filled the breach at crit
ical moment and that the employees VINO
relinuushed their positions did so WIN
the full knowledge that they were TOR
feitinq these rights after due warning.
But now when settlement OF the
strike seems proXimate and every point
of the dispute is to De conceded to the
workers. pending arbitration, they raise
this issue of seniority. They want the
whole hog or none. In other words. they
would tear the last support from the rail-
roads and the public. TO eXpel the men
who were in dire need of employment
and who answered the call when the
shopmen abandoned their work, when
the country was threatened with an In
dustrial calamity by bringing transpor-
tation to a standstill, would not only be
a gross injustice to those men but 1t would
put the country at once at the mercy OF
the labor group whenever they had an
imaginary grievance. One of the fund
amental principles of our government
nay, the very keystone of our govern
mental structure, is freedom, whether it
be freedom to work. freedom to worship
or freedom of speech. No group of men
has exercised this right of freedom nor
avaied itself of it to greater extent
than union labor and to deprive other
men of a right which they have often
gone to the extreme limits to maintain is,
on its very face, contradiction of the
principles upon which union labor is or
gained.
If man wants to declare his allegiance
TO one party in preference to another, or
to one church and withhold it from an
other, that is his inviolable right; but
who shall be given the right to make any
distinction between this and mans right
to work and live, when and where he
will We do not deny the right of any
group of men to organize when their
purpose is consistent with law and order,
but we maintain with equal emphasis the
right of others to exercise freedom of &C
ton whenever they choose to do so.
If the shopmen will return to work, we
venture the opinion that the seniority
question will settle Itself. The railroads
will give preference to efficient labor
and the less efficient will be weeded out.
Loyalty alone will not keep a railroad
moving. AS it is, it will require many
months to repair and replace defective
rolling stock and there will be ample
employment for all. Industry will be
speedily revived and other avenues of en-
ployment will be opened to those who
need it. This is Labor's opportunity and
its leaders will be shortsighted indeed if
they do not seize it.

Chira 90 Board of Trade,

Chicago, Aug. 2S.-An uneXpect-
eddy strong market at Liverpool
caused n sharp bulge in wheat
prices here. and during the day
commission houses bought on the
breaks in sufficient volume to hold
good share of the rally. Toward
the finish short covering also
strengthened the market and the
close was &c to u C up. Septem-

lower to H. higher. Oats were un-
changed to sc up and provisions
ranged from unchanged figures ia
II nc advance.
Wheat in the English market
was in good demand and the
strength there was reflected in the
markets price at the start, but the
best early prices were not main
tanned because of lack of agrees
sive buying. In mid-session the
commission house tactics and a de-
crease Of 1900 bushels in the WIS.,
ible supply. an unusual develop
ment for this time of the year,
formed a bullish influence.
Corn advanced early but more
than lost the upturn later on sell
ing by longs. Receipts here We're

the demand. especially it is expect
ed there will be a heavy run all
through the week. Commission
houses were rather persistent SELL
ers despite the continued drought
over a good part of the belt and
the expectation of bullish private
reports to be given to the trade the
latter part of the week.
Oats followed corn and eased OFF
with that grain but averaged

A lack of support. with scattered
selling, made lower range for pro-
visions despite the strength in hog
