NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE first
$1,000 saved I invested in books
books on political economy and
the science of government.
My second $1,000 also went Tor
books, for I had determined to In
form myself as fully as possible
on subjects that interested mo most
deeply.
In due time became on editor
and publisher, and that has since
been my calling.
About one thing I feel well quail.
fled to advise young men, and
that is:
Don't enter the newspaper pro
fession-better learn a trade.
Advises Business Career.
A business career is what ! ad.
wise young man to follow, pro-
vided he has a business. If he
hasn't that, then let him go in
for whatever most appealed to him.
It is better to be q successful
blacksmith than to be failure in
life as an incompetent teacher or
in some other nlisfit occupation.
If a young man possesses the
instincts Of the artist. or believes
he has in him the stuff Of which
great business men are made, he
ought to go to the great city. If,
on the other hand, his aims are not
so great, and he is not looking for
the higher places in life, he had
better stay in small city or town.
He may make q different kind Of
success there.
Varied Views Of Success.
1t all depends on what we re.
gard as success.
But this is certain: Every man,
young or otherwise, should be
sincere, live up to his ideals and
do the best he can. That win
bring him success, If not in dol
lars gained, at least in the con-
seriousness Of duty well performed.

COUNSEL
ASKS TRIAL IN
j. s. COURT
Federal District Attorney Seeks
Percedent Set for "Lone
Wolf"

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. Tiff a
move made yesterday by United
States Attorney Coles to have James
l.. Asher, 1.-THE so-called Lone Wolf"
prohibition agent, tried in the Fed
eral District Court on a charge Of
homicide in connection with the
death Of Peter Yancauskas, a saloon
keeper, succeeds, two presidents will
be established.
Acting as the Lone VOLTS coun-
sci, Coles filed q petition with DIS
trtct Judge Thompson for q writ Of
habeas corpus for the removal Of the
homicide case against Asher from
the court of oyer and terminer to
the district court. This is the first
time in the history of the United
States courts that such a move has
been made.
Prosecutor I'm Defense.
II Coles succeeds in his effort, tina
trial will produce, for the first time
here, the spectacle Of United States
Ditrict Attorney, prosecuting Off
Ger, appearing as counsel for de-
PENDANT charged with a crime, AMI
county attorneys in the role Of prose-
cutting counsel in the United States
district courts.
Judge Thompson granted a rule TO
show cause why Asher should not
be tried in the Federal Court, and
will hold a hearing in the matter
today. Asher was held responsible
for the saloonkeeper's death by the
coroner, but later he was released
on $1,000 bail fixed by the county
court.
Asher, in charge Of group Of pro.
hibition agents, raided 'YancauslZaS'
saloon April q last. In a melee for
the possession Of alleged moonshine
whiskey and other liquors, Asher is
alleged to have knocked Yancauskas
down, and while he was unconscious
on the barroom floor, to have merci-
lessly kicked and cuffed him about.
Died After Raid.
Yancauskas died June II, and It
is alleged his death was caused by
the beating Of the Lone Wolf"
While admitting striking the sa-
loonkeeper in self-defense, Asher de-
clares he delivered only one blow,
and that did not cause death.
The move to transfer the case OF
Asher to the Federal courts is predi.
Gated on a Federal law which gives
United States courts Jurisdiction in
litigation affecting Federal officials.
The law has been invariably recog-
nized in civil courts, but this is the
first time it has been invoked in q
criminal proceeding. Inasmuch as
Asher must face trial on the homi-
eide charge he would rather put his
case in the hands Of a Federal jury
than in one selected by the county
oyer and terminer court

THE VALUE OF RELIGION

The Passing Show: "True religion
Is fundamental to our whole business
structure. Business depressions are
direct result of e1tragance, reck-
lessness, waste, greed and irreligon
which develop during the so-calIed
boom times. During periods of de-
preston we repent our wasteful
methods. We seek to perform true
service in order to get the proper
remuneration and again place reli-
gion on the true values in life. The
prosperity of a country is absolutely
dependent upon its moral and social
condition. Rome and the other rich
ancient nations fell when per cent
OF the people held 95 per cent of the
wealth, lived in extravaganza and sin.
and oppressed the other 95 per cent
or the people. The statistics of new
members of the nations leading
churches show great gains when the
country is in a depression. And church
membership declines when the coun-
try is in the midst of a boom period
throwing away money and burning
the candle at both ends. Never for
get that the progress of the coun-
try depends upon the vision of its
people. Where there is no vision.

COMING BACK

People are coming back who have
banked on Idaho and stuck, and they
are coming back who have gone away
discouraged.
After all, it's pretty difficult tc
find a better place than Idaho.
This state participated in nation.
wide depression, but it did not have
monopoly on all the hard times.
Certain men having large opportuni-
ties to be heard have undertaken to
make it appear that most everyone
in this state was busted and many
thousands leaving; that they over
shot the mark. People at home
knew better and they are saying so.
or course that sort of thing hurts
US on the outside, but we can over
come it il we will all stick.
Recently, in Boise valley. pictured
woefully by the instrumentalities re-
ferred to, numbers of farmers came
forward with statements, published
In the Boise newspapers, showing in
more or less detail that they were
getting along very well and could
hardly expect to do better anywhere
else.~
Moreover, number who slipped
the moorings and landed in Cali
fornia are coming back. Some are
already back, and they realize thew
lost by going away.
The big stick Not to strike with
put to tie to-that will solve a lot
of our problems. -.

ELECTRICITY TO AID FARMER

The first Completely electrified
rural community in the United State!
will soon come into existence as al
experiment to determine to what ex.
tent the comforts and conveniences
of city life can be made economically
practicable on the farm and in the
farm home.
The equipment will be furnished
free of charge through the National
Electric Light Association, and the
farm owners will have to pay only
for the current used.
The extent of the experiment will
be limited only by the character of
farming done an by the variety of
equipment now on the market.
Complete decords of costs, savings
and returns will be kept, and this
data will then be compiled in the
most detailed study of rural electro
dcation that has ever been attempt
ed.

Presently every man, woman and

The preacher seated them and
said. Now every man not paying
his debts standup. The exception,
