The story of the Rock Island wreck in which forty-four passengers were killed is the same old story that explains most of the killings in American railway collisions, which reach a shocking total every year. The wooden day coaches were smashed into kindling wood by the impact with the heavy Pullman sleepers. Those in the Pullmans escaped. The slaughter was in the telescoping wooden coaches.

It is a common enough observation that at this particular time of the year, not a few of us go out and stir the earth and plant lettuce or turnips and cabbages or more noble and inspiring plants. Right here in our own Wayne county in the days of good old Richard La Rue there came men, and he was one of them, who found the virgin country and cut the timber off the land that we mightodulge in the humbler and ordinary occupation of raising turnips. Seek for romance; will yen? Well, go out and reflect that someone had to brave the Indians and the fever thirst. And now, we take it as a matter of course that this should be so and munch the spring lettuce with more avidity and less reflection than a rabbit.

Past all the agony and bloody sweat of a Roman crucifixion a Young Man's idea conquered the world. His ideas were equitable, kindly, and full of hope. But they were new things Bald In a new way or old things, were they? And as such were certain to insure his death by Custom of Generations. And in the Spring of the year, in the ime of life and the germination of planted seed, we are called upon to celebrate a festival. No sermonizing other than a reflection on the growing things and their struggle for existence is necessary, or even palatable when time is much better spent in the fresh spring air. I

It is noticeable that when man plants an idea he has a hard time of it. Most of the great ideas have been planted in the blood of fellowmen. It takes constant plowing and harrowing, the breaking up of established custom, the weeding out of other plants which break in to take ground and choke the good seed. Reactionary fixity, established by custom, is good soil, but it is the restraining crust through which the growing and germinating seed must force its way. And so, we have all the confusion of the world today. The farmer finds that the good seed has a harder time in the caked soil than do the obnoxious jimson weed, dock and thistles.

When we have learned the lesson of the seed, it is probable that we will at once have learned the beginning and the end of all things. In the meantime, shall we go on and allow the crust to accumulate?

Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copy.ight. 1908, by Edwin A. Nye HEART POWEIL Tbe man who best succeeds in his work is the man who puts his heart Into bis work. His head also? Certainly. He must know how to do his work and must have skill in doing it, butOver and above skill and knowledge la the prime quality of enthusiasm heart force. Just here is where many fail or partly fail. One is in the wrong businesa and cannot pluck up enthusiasm. Being in the wrong place, he takes no joy in his task. He is at outs with his job and hence puts no heart power into it. It is a case of the round man in the square hole, or vice versa. Note this: If you put a circle inside of a square that touches at just four points of contact or a square inside of a circle that touches at the four corners there is contact npwbere else save at the four points. So is the man who is a misfit. Life, real life, enjoyable, successful life, is contact with things at all points. In fact, that is the scientific definition of life correspondence or close touch with environment. Therefore the round man should get out of bis square hole and the square man out of his round bole. Because One must be fitted to his work, like his work, put satisfaction into It. To succeed rightly he must use heart force. The man who "loses heart" in his job is likely to lose the job, which may be good for the man. A misfit, joyless worker cannot stand in competition with one who is fired by the redhot enthusiasm of joy in his job. If you are in the wrong hole get out of it You can do it. It may take time and sacrifice and tact. But you owe it to yourself to get into your right place. Work without joy in it is but stupid drudgery. If you cannot get any pleasure out of your life's work, where this side of the Jordan of death will you get any pleasure? And life devoid of all pleasure is not worth while. In everything business, study, art. what not the distinguishing quality of success is heart force. What you do. do with all your heart Heart force is dynamic Augustin Daly's Wit. An actor who knew Augustin Daly well once told this story of the great theatrical manager's ready wit: "We both chanced to be depositors in and victims of a bank which suspended payment. Like others, when the news of the disaster became known we hurried off to the bank to pick up what information we could, and, coming down the steps from the offices into the street Mr. Daly's foot caught in the mat and with some difficulty he managed to save himself from falling. I was entering the building, and, seeing the mishap, I said: " 'I hope you have not hurt yourself.' " Oh, no, thank you. he replied. I Only lOSt TTir HAUce.' Monkeys of Liberia.

Corporation Tax Cases Are In

Suits Filed in the Supreme (BY SIDNEY ESPEY.) Washington. March 26. A peculiar situation developed in the supreme court of the United States when the government, through Solicitor Gener al Lloyd W. Biwers, filed his brief in the corporation tax cases, which are now pending before that body for final consideration. Although it was filed in strict conformity with legal procedure, it has nevertheless been the source of general comment in legal circles throughout the country, particularly among members of the bar of the supreme court of the United States who are generally familiar with the practice obtaining before the tribunal, as to just what position the United States government occupies In the litigation. This situation was brought about by the appeal of a number of corporations from various circuit courts to the United States Supreme court under the recent act of congress, .which levied a tax of one per cent on the net incomes of corporations. The act contemplated the payment of the revenue taxes by March 1 last and specifically stated that corporations not complying with the act should be fined not more than $H,0)0. Internal Revenue Commissioner Cabell, of the treasury department was designated as the officer to collect the tax through local revenue collectors. It was also provided that this officer should have discretionary powers in imposing the fines on recalcitrant corporations. To further protect the officers in collecting the tax, the law states that suits of inpunctibn or judicial restraining orders could not be served on collectors of taxes. Hence the general opposition of corporations to the payment of the tax and also the avidity with which it was paid by all of the corporations in a little less than one month's time. Although the tax. it is thought, was paid by all of the corporations, certain large stock companies resorted to the courts to test the validity of the legislation and to endeavor, if possible, to escape subsequent levies. Already fifteen cases have been limited on the docket of the supreme court of the United States, and for the purpose of facilitating the adjudication of the points involved, were consolidated so that they could be heard as one case. According to the calendar the cases were presented to the court on March 17. when arguments were beard by the respective sides. The government's brief, which was presented by Solicitor General Bowers, consisted of more than 500 pages of printed matter. The situation presented by the filing of this brief shows that the governUP TO DEMOCRATS Meredith Nicholson Says They Must Nominate Senator in Convention. NEEDED TO GAIN TRUST (Palladium Special) Washington, D. C, March 26. Unless the Democrats of Indiana indicate their choice for senator in state convention, the masses will distrust them and their chances for success will be materially impaired in the opinion of Meredith Nicholson, the author, who is in Washington. "In my opinion, their success depends largely upon their choice of a candidate. They must declare that choice in advance. Otherwise, the masses will be distrustful of the outcome. Senator Beveridge has a strong popular following, and his, personality , will dominate the Republican cam- j paign. His course on the tariff has been in harmony with the sentiment of the state, and the odds will favor 1 his re-election, I think, unless the Democrats are wise enough to name a strong man in state convention to oppose him." Of coffee the United States is the world's largest consumer, Germany, Netherlands, France, Belgium and Austria-Hungary being next in- order named. Of tea, the United Kingdom is the world's largest consumer. Russia being second, the United States third.

As a beauty maker for the figure it is simply wonderful while It adds brightness to the eyes, and color to the cheeks and lips. It requires no particular dieting, but acts as an aid to nature by its peculiar action on the nerves- and blood supply. The blood and nerves distribute over the body, all the nourishment or flesh building; elements obtained from the food. The trouble with thin people has always been that they do not absorb or retain enough of the fleshy matter to make them gain in welgrht even to a normal extent; but this new discovery of blending certain harmless drugs is a revelation to science, and hundreds have (rained from ten to forty pounds In a few weeks.

when a case of this sort is presented to , indirectly interested. Thus. In Judithe supreme court of the United States j cial parlance, the government was trythe government must defend the law. j ing to do In an indirect manner what It did so, of course, but without being ; it could not do in a direct manner and

named as a party to the suit. As it ' 6tands the suit involves a dispute between individuals and corporations. Yet this unusual state of affairs is just a little more complex than this The Individuals', who are suing the cor- i porations, are themselves stockhold- j ere In the corporations. Tbey asked that the courts restrain the corpora-j tions from paying a tax imposed by the federal government, which the corporation could not refuse to pay as the statute under which the tax is collected does not permit the corporation any alternative, nor could it bring suit against the United States by making the collectors of taxes the defendant. Just to make things a little more interesting and bewildering to the lay mind, an attorney of New York, representing a large corporation, entered his appearance in the case in behalf of the corporation. At the same time, however, he takes isue with the general points involved on the sides of other corporations and threw his argument with that of the United States. The case as it stood. Involved more than thirty lawyers, each of whom wished to be heard in support of several arguments which had been advanced. As the time was limited by the court to two days it was obviously impossible for each and every attorney to present his respective case to the bench. The explanation given at the department of justice for the peculiar turn that affairs took, was almost as complicated as the situation which presented itself before the supreme court, although its judicial aspect was never criticised or questioned by any member of that bar familiar with the course of the corporation tax litigation. In the first place the United States government was the party most Interested in the several suits, by reason of the fact that an act of congress involving the interpretation of the constitution was attacked. Second, that suits could not be divided against the United States because of the fact , that the law specially charged that j suits could not be brought against the government agents for the purpose of delaying the collection of the taxes, and third that by this situation, the United States government was barred from defending these suits in a direct manner, but had to make an attempt

of course, in law, it was necessarily doing an unlawful act. It Is not for the purpose of procedure, however, that the United States j government, simply by the Introduc tion of its brief in the case in which it is vitally affected, was trying to do I an unlawful act In attempting to be- j corne a party to the suit. Its stand in this respect was thoroughly appreeiated by the court and its right of appearance respected. It could have neglected officially to appear in the case for the reason that argument presented by those who defended the actions in the lower courts were practically the same as were advanced by the government. The purpose of the government's entrance into the case, however, was to safeguard the laws made by congress and to support the contention that the imposition of the tax was constitutional. Aside from he position o-cupied by the United States, it was hardly conceivable to the lay mind why the stockholders of a corporation should sue the corporation of which they form an integral part. The answer Is that the corporation does not wish to pay the tax any more than its stockholders do. yet under the law they must pay the tax or be subjected to an Immense fine by the government from which there Is no evasion. To refuse to pay the fine. the corporation argued, would have been foolhardy, and if not paid, which of course, they did. they merited the tremendous kick of the stockholders. BY SIDNEY ESPEY GAL TWO which would have followed. Consequently, the lesser of the two evils was chosen; pay the fine and enter suit against the United States in an indirect manner and test the validity of the staute. This was done by the stockholders who entered suit against the corporations, restraining them from paying the fine. As they could not be" restrained from paying it the suit was necessarily entered in the federal courts through the stockholders attacking the validity of the congressional act. Hence the -final appearance of the case in the United States Supreme Court, involving the legal department of the country, and for once in the history of the supreme court, making certain friendly factions in the litigation defendants with the government, yet prosecutors of themselves.
