THOUGHTS OF
A FISHERMAN
By Ike Walton, Redivivus

George Bernard Shaw ought to
go to school to Will Rogers. Will
loves his fellow men, Shaw loves
Shaw. Will is a wit, Shaw is a
nit. Will is an actor on the stage,
Shaw is one wherever he is.,Will
has a hundred million lovers.
Shaw has Archibald Henderson.
Will is a Democrat, Shaw is a
Psendocrat. Will believes in the
Golden Rule, Shaw believes III
the Shavian Rule. Will laughs,
Shaw Grins. Will tries to tell
the truth, Shaw does his best to
make an untruth plausible.
If anybody is using Shaw for
propaganda, it is the Rothschilds.
Stain knows that nobody takes
Shaw seriously, so he has no rea-
son to back the dramatist, but
the Rothschilds know that the
more Shaw turns loose his non
sense, the more it rebounds
against the radicals. Shaw is the
worst enemy socialism or COM
munism has, because he only
makes people smile at his ad-
vocacy of those tenets. But when
the Irishman follows the example
of Ghandi, there might be some
thing doing in Merry England.
Nobody is permanently influenc
ed by "Ihomme guiunit" except
to pity the man. People may
smile at Shaw, but they won't
follow him. Leaders of forlorn
hopes are made of sterner stuff.
It was the half-starved Rousseau
who inspired the French revolu-
ton, not any of the fat and witty
testers.
notwithstanding Shakespeare's
question, there is sometimes
something in a name. George
Demands last name is just Shaw.

| " HAT OTHERS SAY:

This story isn't ours, but neverthe-
less we think it is a good one: A farmer
had an old blind horse which had out
lived its usefulness. One day he fell
into an old well. The farmer looked in
and saw him standing deep in the
water There seemed to be no way to
get him out, as he was quite useless,
and the well abandoned and dangerous,
the farmer ordered his men to fill up
the well and leave the horse buried in
it. The men began to shovel dirt into
the we'll. But the horse was not will
ing to be buried. When the dirt began
to pour in upon him he began to shake
it off and tread it underfoot. AS the
well was filled up the horse came nearer
and nearer to the surface, and when
the men had finished their task the
horse walked out into the pasture.
The very things which conspire to bury
the lion-hearted these days, are used
by them to lift themselves out of diff
culties and into the light. The very
last thing one should do is to agree to
stay dead and be buried.-Stillwate
Gazette.

COMMUNICATED

Ely. Minnesota, September IL, 1888
Editor, Ely Miner:
I am told that some very nice people
are much peeved because some good
sized mama's darlings and auntie's pets
got their pants torn and lost some
stolen crab apples while making a
quick getaway over a high strung
barbed wire fence at my place.
If those good people will bring their
darlings to me will fix their pants for
them and help them pick up the fruit
they lost in their scramble to get away
before they could be identified
The chaps I refer to are not young
children. They are big enough and old
enough to know better If they don't
it is high time they should learn.
Yours truly,

We're All Company Men.

The following from the Ishpeming
Iron Ore is pert and to the point
covering all the range towns in par
ticular and other industrial centers
in general. The Ore says:
"Why is it that some individuals
consider that the representative of
a corporation is one who is to be
stunned by his fellowmen and
shown no favors when favOrs are
being passed around? Those who
make these remarks are in the mi
nority, but they keep talking all the
time and do their utmost to stir up
friction.
ITO get right down to cases, we
are all company men," whether we
believe 1t or not. We are all de-
pendent upon the corporations for
our daily bread, although indirectly
in most instances.
The butcher, the baker and the
candlestick maker are all gaining
living because of the larger en-
plOyers of labor who keep the wheels
of industry turning. The owner of a
grocery is able to take care of his
family and perhaps lay few dollars
aside because workmen of corpora
tions trade with him.
There would be no Marquette,
Ishpeming or Negaunee if it were
not for the mining companies that
support the communities. There
are, to be sure, other concerns con-
tributing to the success of the NUM-
cipalities, but if close analysis is
made it will be ascertained that
there is also a connection between
these and the mining companies
that cannot be overlooked. We are
all far more dependent upon the
corporations than the corporations
are upon us, but where there is no
friction between the two, the best
results are obtained.
1T is the same corporations that
contribute the most to our schools,
state, county, and city governments
They place at our disposal fine hos
pitfalls and other community enter
prises, and always carry more than
their just share of the burden
When there are no companies here
there will be no use for any of these
at is the ton of ore in the ground
and the concerns that get it to mar
ket that really count, and every
man, woman and child should re-
alize these truths. We want mines
lots of them-and factories if we
can get them, but after they are es-
tablished they must be treated fair
ly and not referred to in unkind
terms. Don't forget that we're al

In every community there are a
number of business hitch-hikers. They
are business men who never aid any
cause, never carry their share of any
celebration, never take part in any
thing which will help the town. They
never do anything to bring the people
to town but are glad to have the other
merchant spend his money in advertis-
ing to bring them to town because they
know crowd helps business. They
simply want to ride free Theirs is a
selfish existence and their hitch hiking
isn't particularly harmful unless every
body joins their class and then the
town stops still and starts spinning
backwards.
There are business hitch mixers in
every town but when everybody be-
comes hitch hiker-watch out.-Eve-

Up to short time ago a 20-story
skyScraper stood in the famous loop
district of Chicago The building re-
turned rent of $4,000 a year. A
Chicago business man was offered the
opportunity to buy it for $500 And he
turned it down! Since then the build
ing has been wrecked, and the lot it
stood on is being used for a parking
space. This amazing little story ap-
peared recently in the editorial columns
of metropolis daily. As the knowing
will have guessed, the trouble with the
building was taxes. They came to
$4,000 year. And the owners were
in arrears an entire year To continue
to operate they would have had to pay
out $4,000. The rent return didn't
justify it.
And the result? Well, everyone lost
The owners of the building, who had
invested money in it were finally forced
to destroy it in self defense; the city.
which was out thousands in taxes. and.
lastly, the general public, which must
make up the taxes the building would
normally pay.
This is the old story of excessive
taxation, and it has been told a thous-
and times. Bankruptcy, unemploy-
ment, industrial recession, slowed COM
munity progress; there are the newt
able corollaries of wasteful and ex-
pensive government. 1t is time our
lawmakers read the handwriting on the
