C u second-class mall tr attar. ecnday, Feb. 23 ios MORNING TONIC CHarper'a Weekly.) -What.- is worth while, then? Is it worth while to spead a life in multi plying comforts and luxuries? After best of drink and the finest shelter U to -put oneself on the level of a well stalled ox or horse. To accumulate money and property, to heap them up juid guard them and keep them. Is to degrade the Intelligence to the level of the bee or the ant. All these things are good; some of them are necessary. T'oOd nd drink and proper shelter, work and gain and increase of facili ties, are the by-products of living; they are necessary'; but who mistakes them for the life itself must pay for hla error as If it were a sin. And th life .Itself? Let us quote from a book we may all be reading in a month or a year from now: "Of a sudden if came to him that life Itself was beautiful. Not effort only, not iwork nor play, 'success, achievement,' wealth or fame or honor, but life Itself. iTo live was good. The hours, .the I golden hours, were not Just empty I space between two clockbeats, to fill with acts. , They: were them&elves a 'glory. To ait and let the crystal flood of time pass over hi ra was purest pleasure. '- Not hla life only, but all life twas good. To feel the great and glo rious stream: of the world life pass Ion, to be'one with Nature and hear her ting. For she goes forward to music, it t- not a.lwavs a battle chant she moves to. In her song there are all things. The shout of triumph and the; cry of those who fall are there; but there are also other notes--the ripple of the river on lt3 stones, the murmur of the trees '.the rlthrn of the sap that riBes in them.; the thunder In the hills. It is the song of infinite harmonies." This if what come upon us. with a misgiving that Is almost a terror, when we pause o think that we stand here in the midst, of mortal life and that we shall not pass this wav again. Lire is Infinitely beautiful, and we, If we fall to find it so. must search for the defect, not around us nor outside ur, but In ourselves. And If in out ciia-ve' for gross things, and material things we, have outrun the power to rfve, to perceive, to enioy, ;we ;must pay the litnalty, for' Nature is intx oiable;', we pay for our mistakes to the-last Jotj Just as we; pay 'for our fii. i iV$ :, , :-'- tut" after ftfl. the' outlook is not so black. Mistakes are Just the steps of the stairs un which are climbing. Iilvtry time we recognize one for what it is. and eal it a sta instead of a goal, we move on up.. And this gene-ration is jUEt in the act of lifting one foot -off-the 'Bler -of materialism to a itep' that ' sUh 11 'be -better worth while. We shall stand next on a plane where ve ''shall ''realize; as the child who has been burned realize what fire Is. that life is not all in the body, but that life is happiness. ' Arid happiness is not bread and meat, nor yet is it sport, nor gayety, ncr excitement, nor rival ry, nor prominence. Happiness Is growth ; -and ! enlargement. He Is happy who sees ' more, who under stands - more," who effects more this year than last. He is happy who finds his perceptions sharpening, his . powers Increasing, his sympathies widening, his helpfulness broadening, lie is happiest who Includes most life in himself and radiates most life ' around him. And how shall he face death who fcaa grown to full stature in this life? If. on thU chrnce journey we call mor tal life, he has not only found good ness and security and. happiness, but has himself had power to create more goodness and more security and more ' happiness, ehall he believe for an ln " suuit that all this can be blotted out " c existence by a mere shadow called iTeath? "Dying is hard; but death is eery,, wrote a hero, as he bled to Cath alone at mi might by a fiicker- i clrangq and new experiences, has I i difficulties and pains, and then comes ' th ne adventure, strange and thrill - ins and surely gladder and' greater than the experience we have Just ex hausted and cast behind us. Death U : nothing but just the step above us.; ' And there is but one more word to this little sermon about what is woh while: Men who are wilful and stupid andj unworthj of j themsclv5 - ofte.i enough lay all this aside when they begin to think for their children. Thote is aj truth as Indubitable as that fire burns and It la tbls: As we choose today, ?o shall our child n Inherit. I What man" is willing to leave his child .nothing better than mere mate rial tains? What man does not secret ly hope that his child -will have real happiness? v' What man would not. If he could, give his child some part oi the Joy of the artist's perceptions, somej of the peace of the sage. ph . tf the strength of the cenquerer? W.:ll and the moral of this is, as Ailcs's duchess ued to. ay: As twe choose today, not only so shall our life be in ' the future, but so shall . the . life bo 'which our children Inherit. And, so the main business of life Is to pause long enough to - look around us and reflect and choose wiijcly uhat la worth while. In copying the editorial from the naleiih Christian Advocate the word "army" that appeared in that paper naa by the operator changed tjpar ty, thus changing! the meaning. The ildvocate 'belteves in a temperance Tzry.' but steers clear of. party. i j.

Jest as- we had run off the last pa per ov the Xloaster fer last weelt. Bill Snipes drapped ' inter the offl. Bill used ter run a bar In Hhamkatte till it ware voted out Then he run a blind tiger unbeknowlngst fer awhile until he was disklvered. He cum pur ty near gittln oil the rodeg fer thai but was lei off by a payin nv a big fine, and sence then he ihaint had no regler bianesa. He ha mostly spent his time a cuasln'sthe preachers fer ahettin up his dive and! the good people fer chasing his blind tiger out o town. The Roaster tuck a hand with the wlmmlnjand thi preachers a swattln licker tejr It waa a riiinln uv the printers and the edltur and the dejil, as well as other folks. Sence we got rid' ov the saloons and the blind tigers the Roaster has cum out eviry week' on time bekase the force has kep sober. Before that time so much ov our money went to Bill SniDes that we wuz all so soked sometimes we cuddent print "the Roaster. Bill needn't fer to work awhile fer he made a pile sellln the boose. He hadn't ben in the Roaster up fer runnln the offis sence he wui Tlser, and we knoWed something was up when Bill dropped In. "Hav a aeat.

After we had lit our pipes, we sed to Bill: "What's up now?" ; i "Thef what r kum ter find out, said BI1L "Ter lenow I went down to knp Sodom a few days ago? Well, 1 goi a letter from Mr. D.

MHN ARE The news' comes from Spencer that the' employes of the Southern Rail way, : who hfye families to support, object to being made to bear all the loss caused by th? panic that came under the high tariff and single gold standard. They are right about it. If the earnings of the railroad have fallen off so that retrenchihent -is necessary, th burden should be chiefly borne by the owners! of the property as In cases of other property owners. Because of the panic, upon the petition of railway employes, owners and the recommendations of the Governor, the Legislature increas- ed the pas3enger rate. . i No other ln dustry could get such help. While the bill was pending in the House a prominent cotton mill man paid he wished the Legislature would help the textile interests by permitting an Increase in the price of their goods. , The 55outhern Railway employes de clare that if the panic continues with such severity the owners of the stocks and bonds should be made to bear a share of the reductions and It should not all be saddled upon the men who rlak their lives and leave their homes H run the tral ns and work In the shops. They are right in that contention and the higher offi cials of the road, whofe salaries are to be reduced also, should go to pier pont Morgan and his associates who for ten years and more' have been re ceiving interest and dividend on wa tered stock and watered bonds and tell them that they must share the reductions that !ma7 be found! to be necesi Before accepting the reductions In their wages demanddbythe agents or J, iierpont Morgan ,the represen tatives of the machinists, engin telegraphers and conductors will probably demand to be Known a veri fied statement of the receipts bf the road during the past quarter. It was due at the Corporation Commission on the first day pf Februarj. I Mem bers of the Legislature vainly asked to be shown a comparative statement of the receipts and expenditures 'in North Carolina during the last quar ter of 107. The railroad o ficlgls said they had not been able to tabu late .the reports since- the first o: ' Jan uary necessary to furnish the denied information. V When : the Southern Railway failed to furnish this report on the first of February, the Corpo ration Commission again called for it and Received the answer that it would be ready In a few day. Twenty days went by and still no report. JTIien another letter was sent asking for it and one day last week a lettetj was received again promising to furnish the Information In a few days. When it is received, the employe and the public will have something iutj which to base their action provld Is correct. . It will remembered that the ; Legislature of ISO? -relied upon the sworn reports of the! offi cials of the Southern Railway,! and when the case w before the, Stand ing Master the officials went on the stand and swore j that the former sworn report wast not correct, land that the r&te fixed! upon the basis of that sworn report! ought to be. set arlde because It was not correct. When this report come to 1 the Corporation Commission if "In a few days" whenever that may be the Commission or the employes of both, ought to Investigate I to ' see whether it Is like report, examining the former iworn Into the various items to see what lobbying and sttbsi dizing, If any. rag rating expenses." but Into the "ope- f the direction of President Roosevelt to the interstate Commerce Commission to j examine into the matter Is to be of lvalue to the ! employes in their present effort to prevent the saddling of 1 all the losses upon them, they must act im mediately, for facts! that might; pre vent the reduction 1 delayed may not prevent the cut of wages to 'them. If the Interstate Commission can not at once go into the matter, if they or the employes will retain such lawyers as Hon. F. A. Wood'ard and Hon. E. J. Justice, who woyld have i secured all these facts If the1 Standing Master and Judge had not prevented! full In quiry into part of the transactions, the truth can be "discovered within a very few weeks. The employes are right. The own- ers ought to share the losses the panic has occasioned. They call the tdle engines "the Teddy j Bears." indicat ing that their Idleness has come dur ing the 'Roosevelt ai ministration, j In so far as govemmen has to do with the panic, the Republicans are -responsible for they are in full control, and Republican policies have been shown to be Incapable of preventing panics and hard times. ' The Democratic press, during the worst days of the panic last fall, sought to help toward better! times and put aside the impulse to; make political capital outof Republican failure to preserve prosperity) The thanks they get for -Itj Is the effort of little two-gor-flve-cenlf politicians to make the people belieye that the TejS dy' Bear idle engines are due to a little passenger rate reduction In ps'orth Carolina. .
