SANDER

Thou shalt not bear false witness.
Thou shalt not lie. Thou shalt not
misrepresent thy neighbor. Thou
shalt not convey slanderous gossip
and reports.
The mar who whispers about his
neighbor is the most contemplate
cur on earth. He is a coward, a cur,
and a villain Of the deepest dye. The
man who gossips is a natural born,
constitutional liar, and is meaner,
blacker and nearer the condition OF
hell than any criminal about whom
he may be gossiping. No gossip
should ever be believed. A gossip
ping woman is the biggest liar on
Gods earth, and a gossipping man
ia a burning torch from hell. Any
one who would believe either OF
them is such an infamous fool that
the board of alienists ought to send
him to the asylum at once.
If n is compelled to speak In
uncomplimentary terms of another,
he should go to that individual and
make his remarks to him personally
and directly. He should V speak
about him behind his back unless he
can speak in complimentary and
commendatory terms. O.
The idle gossiper has done more
to wreck the peace and happiness
of good people and bring shame and
sorrow to society than any other
brute that has ever lived. He is
more filthy than the Shiny snake.
He Is more dangerous than the poi
sonous asp. He Is more hellish than
Satan wants him to be.
Thousands of innocent girls and
pure women have been injured by
the tongue of the gossip, by the
mouth of the slanderer, by the words
of towards. The gossip, the SIAN
derer, and the bearer of filthy re-
ports should be banished from So
ciety, driven from every community,
and repudiated by every yirtue-lov-
ing man and woman In the world.
Away with the slanderer!

Pitch In->But at the Right Place

John T. Pratt, prominent New York banker and strong
hacker of the budget system, says that when the business men
of America make up their minds to mix in, roll up their sleeves
and get down to a working basis with the people, with wnom
the politicians and the agitators work, there will not only De
less discomfort. because there will be more understanding among
the farmers and miners and mill hands, but also there will be,
and for the same reason. fewer radical remedies for such ills
as there are.
Mr.. Pratt is right providing his definition of the business
man embraces the Wall Street fnancier. The manufacturers
contact with the working man has been close for years. The great
est misunderstanding lies between the fnancier, whose opera
tons spell high prices for what the farmer has to buy, and the
low prices at which the farmer is compelled to sell. All dis
content snrinrs from that. Try as we will to put the truth
behind our backs, the prosperity, the peace, the content OF the
American people can be gagged always by the barometer on
the American farm. When the farmer enjoys the benefits of
tie square deal discomfort disintegrates all down the line. ;
Mr.. Pratt need feel no alarm about the business man not
o.mixing in" The day of aloofness has about passed. Big
business has come to see that it must mix in, that it must get
off its perch, that the man in the mill and the man behind the
shade will be taken into consideration whether or no.
Indeed, the best minds today, for selfish reasons If for no
other. feel the stern necessity of finding some real solution OF
our economic maelstrom. Up to date they have dealt only with
effects. They have temporized, but they have not cured. As
soon as they get down to causes a more permanent relief will
be in sight. D
Perhaps it might be well for big business, when it does roll
up its sleeves, as Mr.. Pratt suggests, to begin its physical exer-
else by squeezing the water out of the railroads and permitting
passenger and transportation rates to simmer down to an honest
basis.
