ILLINOIS UNIONlSTS
PROFESS THEIR FAITH

Decatur, Ill.,, Oct. 4.--By over
whelming votes the convention of the
Illinois state federation of labor re-
fused to recognize soviet Russia and
rejected the labor party plan and the
"amalgamation- unions" scheme:
Vice President Woll of the A. r. OF
l.. spoke against the proposals and
Victor Olander, secretary OF the state
federation of labor, declared that the
amalgamation plan is another name
for the one big union.
An amusing feature of the contests
was the demand for labor party by
advocates of amalgamation. fe"
years ago thees revolutionists were
shouting for direct action and sabot-
age. They exhausted an extended vo-
cabulary in their opposition to politl-
cal action in any form.
With sabotage and direct action
losing their drawing power. the revo-
lutionists present new fads to Sc
cure publicity. They are now urging
a labor party, though few years age
they expressed the most supreme
contempt for voting.

Justice and LOUe.

TNHRE is justice without love- Justice consists In
seeing clearly the truth of a matter, in drawing
correct conclusions from the facts observed and in
dealing praise blame, reward punishment, fairly
to each person concerned So then justice is first clear
seeing; second accurate reasoning, and third honest
decision. Not of these three functions possible
without love.
First, cannot hear except one loves.
Hate indifference destroys the perceptive faculty.
One know person thing does not love.
Second cannot fairly without love. Logic
ungulded by affection is worthless. The of
the mind go asray at every step unless they be guided
by this powerful instinct. Those who best know the
human intellect know how faulty and utterly unreliable
it is when it is cold.
Third, any honest award any satisfactory decision
and punshments unconvincng to the judge himself
irritating and debasing to the punished and are
huniliating to those rewarded.
There is always emotion of kind or other
behind every act of judgment Such thing as an alb
soutely cold mental conclusion does not exist The final
for everyTjudges decision is the sentiments he
holds. When the feeling behind judgment is resent
not cured he is only debased. Society protected
it further endangered because the anger of the Judge
descends to the level Of the anger of the offender
When the sentiment behind decision is love, when
all resentment has been put aside and there is simply
desire to do what is best both for the offender and for
Society, then and then only is judgment wholesome
When we indulge in vengeance participate in an
instinct that is purely animal You will find it in every
dog and rattlesnake.
What call forgiveness is merely rising above this
animal level Into the human motive of desire tn
promote the general welfare
The difference between vengeance and love is not so
much that vengeance is wicked and love is good but that
vengeance is petty and love is great vengeance is low
and love is high in the scale of evolution

cies of wild life will have passed

Ten countries have already ac-
cepted invitations to unite in the
campaign for saving the game
birds. These countries are Aus
tralia, Canada, France, Holland.
Norway, Luxembourg, Switzerland.
Italy, Great Britain and the United
States. The organizations active
in those countries have appointed
two members to serve on an inter.
national committee.
In this list of names we find
such names as Lord RothschiId.

The feather traffic is still going

EENYO transaction is a good
one that is not pro-
ductive for both Sides"
This has been the simple and sue
cessful business creed OF one OF
the leaders of the public utilities
of America-Col. Henry M. Bylles-
by, of Chicago.
Byllesby started at the very be-
ginning of the electrical industry
and for years has been one OF
it's commanding personalities. A
pioneer in one Of the great fields
of modern business, his career
and his individuality are both
UNIQUE and masterful, says
Forbes Magazine.
Today a great group Of public
utility properties look to him and
his organization for their operat-
ing. engineering and financial di-
rection. They supply nearly $780,
900 people with electricity, gas
and other services in some $50
cities and towns throughout six
teen States.
Colonel Byllesby drafted plans
for the first steam operated cleo
trio central station in the United
States, and was the first big
utility operator to insist that his
properties employ modern adver-
Using methods. No man In his
organization of 5000 people works
so intensively or with a keener
valuation Of the need of forever
striving to do things better to-
morrow than they were done to-
day.
Deal honestly, fairly and law
fully with all concerned" Colonel
Byllesby instructs his subordi-
mates. Make your business and
personal conduct above reproach.
Your business will be most
profitable if you charge the low
est possible rates and develop the
largest volume OF service.
Try to set Il high business
standard Keep the cards on the
table. We want no secret deals,
no faVoritism, no corruption.
Sooner or later the people will
understand. This course may cause
you harder work for a time but
eventually 1t will make it easier.
