To Whom God

"Those to whom it has please God to intrust the management of the great business Interests of this country." Schwab.

Jack Senhouse Is the name of a man in a book. To be accurate he is the hero of three novels by Maurice Hewlett Senhouse is the son of a wealthy man. Instead of doing the perfectly obvious thing he writes poems, embales philosophy, paints pictures, solders frying' pans, and makes the world happier and better to live in by planting flowers and trees all over England. He does what he llkee, is supremely happy and certainly a useful citizen to the world. To talk to such a man about Steel Common and to te!l him that It had fallen off twenty-five points would make as little impression as a bee stinging boiler plate. The man could have looked down upon a king.

The point for the Rest of Us is not In the fact that Mr. John Senhouse liked poetry, plants and paint He might have been young Glavis in the Land Department, Drandels, the attorney for all America, or Pinchot, a college pofessor or a thinker. Education, physical virility and mental force, these were the properties of Mr. John Senhouse.

And so ! A generation Is being born of high Ideals, of mental and physical force who do not believe In the Almighty Dollar. Men who cannot be bought nor sold. Such men do not know peer except in others. And such men there are by the thousands.

There Is the type of mind which believe in that legend of the Golden Calf. ( It Is out of date. "Business Is business." To such a man Harrtman and Rockefeller loom large. To him stock watering is as sacred as family ties. His Idea of public service utilities whether a lighting company or a railroad Is succinctly the phrase of Vanderbilt. vThe public be damned." And he will talk to you of the survival of the fittest and the fate of those who "snivel with envy of the successful man."

Very well gentlemen, the day is rapidly coming and will arrive according to schedule when there shall be a demonstration of the survival of the fittest The state of society which exists today will not survive because it Is not fit Something better will tke is taking its place. When men cannot live comfortably In happiness and rear children to be better men and women than they are themselves, history chronicle3 either unpreceptlble but steady improvement or an upheaval which shakes foundations. When "those to whom it has pleased God to intrust to the management of the great business Interests of this country," become so ignorant and foolish as to forget the rights and privileges of their fellowmen or to give up peaceably the share of material comfort demanded by a developing population something happens. And the result has always been in accordance with the survival of the fittest the many who have become fitter than the few. We no longer wear serf-collars on our necks though our ancestors did. And we are not apt to wear them invisible though they may be patterned. The idea of the Divine Right of Kings has cone into limbo and a few relics remain to satisfy a morbid sight-seeing taste of scenic spectacles which still lingers. , And the Almighty Dollar which took it's place is going: too. It is Inevitable.

With a new breed which cannot be bought nor sold we have a stronger thing than money. If money can not buy men then money is powerless for harm.

Overlord and serf? Well. Maurice Hewlett has written of the new type. His Mr. Jack Senhouse is, you say, merely a man in a book. Sure! But new Ideals are current New ideas are abroad in the land. And day after tomorrow, what? It will not be the same as today, rest assured. To whom God!

Need of More Sailors is Apparent

It Is Recognized Among Men of War that the Decisive Battles Of the Future Will Be Fought on the Seas.

BY SIDNEY E8PEY. Washington, July 11 The United States government is hard at work fitting its citizens for sailors, while advocates of universal peace cry for a world wide disarmament and the nations of the world vie with one another in gigantic battle ship additions to their navies. It is recognized among men of war that the decisive battles of the future, between world powers wljl be fought on the seas. This ia admitted by officers of the United States navy. In consequence, particular attention is now being paid to the development of the naval militia organizations of the several states. In charge of the naval militia work at the navy department is Commander Charles C. Marsh, son-in-law of Fighting Bob Evans, one of the most popular American naval heroes. He has arranged a series of cruises for the naval militiamen and the 0,301 citizen sailors will have each had a week at least of practical experience on a real ship of war before the summer cruises are over. Twenty-one states have naval militia organizations. They are California. Connecticut. Georgia. Illinois, Indiana, Ixmtslana. Maine. Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri. New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania. Rhode Island. South Carolina and Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. New York leads, , having the strongest organization with & officers and men; Illinois ranks second with 037; Louisiana third with 002; At Fountains & Elsowticrd Ask for I ,,KiiiniiLiett's,( Tfc Crl.tasl tad Css!s9 HALTED HILK Tfc Ftd-drfc& fer JUI Agts.

and California fourth with 585. Mas sachusetts, which has 525 officers and men in her battalion, haa the honor of having the first naval militia organi zation, and being parent of the idea. Her battalion-was organized in 1890. Each of the state organizations has a ship of the regular naval establish ment assigned to it for practice pur-i poses, juennue programs Tor cruises have been manned out for the nrran.' izations, excepting those of Pennsyl vania, Massachusetts, Maine. Connecticut, Rhode Island and New York. The majority of the men of these state organizations are to be put aboard of ships of the Atlantic fleet, and will be gfven practice In fleet maneuvers. The men of the California organization will cruise from San Francisco to Portland. Ore., and return during the early part of July on the Marblehead. For the organizations of states in the Great Lake region a program has been arranged for a cruise that will begin August S and end August 16. Seven ships will carry the citizen sailors of Illinois. Michigan, Ohio and Minnesota. The Wolverine will act as flagship. The Ilinois sailors will man the Nashville, the Don Juan de Asturias and the Yantlc will be manned by the Michigan sailors, the Ohio organization will be aboard the Essex and the Dorothea, while the Minnesota sailors will navigate the Gopher. These vessels will all rendezvous at Thunder bay and the cruise will include Buffalo, Cleveland and Detroit The program for the Cruise of the naval militia on the Atlantic coast provides that the Chicago, with a portion of the Massachusetts militia, the Tonopah with the New Jersey organization; the Ozark with the District of Columbia sailors, the Machias with a part of the Connecticut organization and the Isla de Cuba with the Maryland sailors will rendezvous at Gardiner's bay. Long Island. July 23. From there they will cruise In fleet formation to Fortress Monroe In Chesapeake bay, and return, being inspected and dismissed July 30. Thirteen hundred of the citizen sailors are to be given experience on battleships. These men are to be distributed as follows: Pennsylvania sailors on the battleship Kansas; Massachusetts militiament on the Vermont; Maine on the Louisiana: Connecticut on the Georgia; and the Rhode Island on the ' Massachusetts

ind Idaho. The members of the New! York organization will be distributed I

imong the efght other battleships of the Atlantic fleet These ships will take aboard the militiamen July 23, nd cruise with them until July 30. The scheme to be carried out provides .hat each militia sailor is to bunk and work with a regular sailor during the veefs cruise. Not1 only will there be Individual work on the ships, but the leet will go through a drill In order -o give the militiamen more practical experience and make them more valuable to the naval service should war iemand their active participation in Lhe mannig of the warships. Republican senators and representitives before leaving Washington disussed the possible effect which the jew movement within the republican arty, called 'progressive" by its 'fiends and "insurgents" by Its enemies will have on the fall elections. Tnsurgency will be put to its severest 'est In Wisconsin and In Indiana. In Visconsin the movement led by Senator LaFoIlette overturned the old epublican organization and gained omplete control not only of the state Government but of the senior senatorhip In Washington. Then it seemed o recede. A governor now presides in Visronsln who is not a progressive. senator in the person of Isaac Steph enson was chosen at the state wide rimaries last year In opposition to a nost aggressive fight wag-M by the rogressives or insurgents. Now Senator LaFoIlette, who probably holds he original copyright on insurgency s on triaj and while the chances appear to be in favor of his selection he ealized that he is to have the fight of Ms life. He will confront a state adninistration that is hostile to him ind a state full of federal office holders, every one of whom is committed o the work of his defeat. A large percentage of the pre3s of the state is openly denouncing him as a socialist ind a radical and not a republican. To idd to the complications the metropolis of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, has recently elected a socialist mayor and Mty officials and Senator LaFoIlette will not even enjoy the benefits of beng called a socialist because the socialists have decided to bring out a candidate for the United States senate against him. By putting one of their own number in the race for the sen-1 ate they will take away from LaFoI lette many thousands of votes, which would undoubtedly have gone to him in the primaries if there were no socialist nominee. Senator Beveridge is confronted with much of the same kind of a fight within his own party, although he has the advantage of a corps of federal office holders who are favorable to him. He has never been denied the patronage by the president. The Indiana state administration is demo-,

cratic and this influence will be castfhas come without any symptoms of

against him. He has another handicap to meet In that of the twenty-four hold over senators, a majority of them are democrats.

Insurance

A certain Insurance company employs Mr. Elbert Hubbard to write its advertisements. That Elbert is something of a Busines's Booster on his own hook everyone knows who has periodically paid for the Periodical of Protest Their methods, Elbert's and the Company, are worthy of a Listening Eye. Hear here: TIME'S DERELICTS An Advertisement by Elbert Hubbard A great writer once said, "Nothing is more disgraceful than that an old man should have nothing to show that he has lived long except his years." Mow true is this and yet how often do we look about us and see dozens of Time's Derelicts who must depend upon the State, the Community, or worse yet, their own families, for the ordinary comforts that old age requires. In youth our every impulse is to expend rather than conserve. But should we not let wisdom play a part, and consider what future life will mean without that independence that now means so much to us while all is sunshine! When the World smiles, emulate the example of the Bees and horde your Honey. To be free for all time, see that in youth you make arrangement for your Old Age. The of the United States will contract to insure your savings. You need not put away great sums. If you are still young, an annual deposit of less than Two Hundred Dollars, will yield Five Thousand Dollars to you in cash at the end of twenty-five years just when you'll need it. The same sum will be paid to your wife or mother or other dependent if you die sooner. Life Insurance means peace, content, good digestion and sound sleep. It eliminates worry. Evidently the Company round out that ADVERTISING TAYS. Or they wouldn't hire Elbert Hubbard. Well, that means that they have found that good space is so valuable that it ought not to be wasted.

Say something in your copy effectively. Advertise in papers that cover the field effectively. You will have results. ADVERTISING IS BUSINESS INSURANCE. The bigger the policy in a best company, the better you are insured. "TIME'S DERELICTS" ARE NOT CONFINED TO LIFE INSURANCE.

A BUSINESS REVIEW OF THE PAST WEEK B Y HENR Y CLEWS

New York, Juluy 11. -The country is still passing through a process of readjustment rendered necessary by an unusually long period of activity, prosperity and extravagance. Reaction was inevitable when the upward movement had exhausted itself; the point of exhaustion being marked by weakening of the nation's purchasing power. For some time past It has been evident that the latter stage had been touched. Securities, luxuries and commodities had all reached a point beyond the power of buyers, and reaction was unavoidable. Fortunately it panic. There are many reasons for recent declines; none of which, however, would have been so potent as they have been had it not been that the time was ripe for readjustment. The reaction was unwelcome, as all such movements are being accompanied by more or less depression, and symp-: toms of political irritation. The truth is that underlying conditions rendered a return to lower and more stable levels imperative. The gun was well loaded and only some unfavorable development was necessary for puling the trigger. There has been a succession of unfavorable incidents. The aggressive attitude of the government and a somewhat disturbing political outlook being perhaps the most disturbing elements in financial circles. These developments have been followed by a not altogether satisfactory crop outlook; also by apprehension of monetary stringency In the fall arising from an over-extension of credit by western banks on account of land speculation. Over $1,040,000,000 new securities were issued during the past six months, and at a time of lessened buying power compared with $8G0.0O0km the same time in 1000. There are indications too, that the present reaction will go beyond Wall street. Business generally Is undergoing a setback. Business failures in the first six months of 1010 aggregated $112,000,000 compared with $$8,000,000 same time last year. Bank clearings through the country are running below a year ago. Railroad expenses are often increasing more rapidly than earnings, with consequently unpleasant losses in net In the iron trade the produc tion of pig iron is already running

ahead of consumption steel products show a and prices of downward ten dency. In cotton goods the produc tion is being curtailed fully 50 per cent and a similar shutdown is also re-1 ported In the woolen and silkvlndustries. The over production of copper continues in spite of lower prices and a somewhat increased consumption; the prospects of regulating the product are Btill as indefinite as ever. The tendency of commodities is downward in the wholesale markets though in time this should cheapen cost to consumers and thus somewhat reduce the cost of living. As to how far the business reaction will go, it is impossible to determine; but the indications are for a quiet summer, and the prudent merchant will conserve his resources and pave the way for a fresh upward movement upon a lower and more substantial basis when the time for recov ery comes. k This is the dark side of the picture. Fortunately there is also a brighter side. The most encouraging factor financially, is the continued ease of mo ney, which is likely to continue until the crop movement begins. The ex treme stringency anticipated for next fall will probably be moderated by the universal preparations for such an event because disasters foreseen seldom occur. Nevertheless, the situation of the western banks is not an enviable one. At the reserve centers these institutions may be found in strong condition owing to recent precautions, but the forthcoming bank reports will be watched with unusual Interest, and until the autumnal strain is .passed the outcome of. the western land speculations will not be definitely known. Interior banks, as is well known will be obliged to depend upon New York much more than usual for assistance In moving the crops. The New York banks will, however, be In a position to render such aid, especlaK ly as money abroad Is easy, our credit there is good and the improving tendency of our foreign trade will permit of ample imports of gold. Engagements of the latter are already reported, and although it Is doubtful if these transactions yielded any profit, yet the operation is significant and demonstrates that the United States will be in ai position to draw the precious mek al from abroad in much larger sums when needed. This is most assuring.

Heart to Heart Talks. , By EDWIN A. NYE.

Copyright. 1908, by Edwin A. Nye KEEP ON GROWING. "When 1 begau on t hi job it wa difficult, but 1 bare uaatered.it after a long struggle. It comes easy tu mo now." 1 said to him: Then It Is about time you were trying a more difficult task, ts It not?' After a moment's thought he replied: l hadn't thought of that. 1 was settling down comfortably in this work. But I canuot say 1 am exactly contented. because 1 realize 1 cau do better work. 1 see what you mean. You think a man ought to keep ou growing." That was preclmely the point. He was comparatively a young mau and had not nearly developed his lull abiUty to do things. The fact that faH ability to do difficult things had caught up with the requirement of his task was proof that bis powers were growlng. When a difficult duty becomes easy select a more responsible one. That Is the only way to grow. Cue of the chief pleasue of Ufa Is the joy of accomplishment. And when one comes tu realise that be can do things be once thought to bo beyond bis powers he rejoice as a strong man to run a race. Be xeeis himself to be growing. Where do the forces come from?. We do not know. The mystery of growth, whether it be of the wheat or of the tree or of the mind, will always be a mystery. We know only the facts of growth, not the why. To illustrate: v Darwin tails its that the first eagle couldn't fly. but it wanted to fly and tried to fly. Generations of eagle wanted nud tried to fly until through the mysterious processes of evolution the eagle developed pinions and powersand flew. So of the human capacity. Desire and trial long continued will develop inherent faculties or even new powers powers and faculties undreamed of-untll finally the man U able to do the things be wants to 4 and be the things he wants to be. Najthing Is better settled by modern psychology than that fact. Keep on growing. Select the hard task. When you have mastered that, try another that Is more difficult and master that. Be bold enough to follow the lines of development of your growing powers. To do so spells both success and satisfaction. Because While yeur vigor lasts your Joy of doing will last. Keep on growing. Nothing in alt the universe, here or hereafter I say It reverently not even God himself, can stand between ths soul that grows and its successful destiny. Willing to Waive That.
