QUOTATION
“What folly lies in forecast and in fears,—
Know this, God keeps our little flock of
years."
AN ILLUSTRATION
In no country in the world will there
be progressive, satisfactory and prosper
ous business conditions until capital and
labor realize that each would be practi
cally helpless without the other. One
illustration out of hundreds will serve to
show the truth of the above fact.
Iron ore in the mountains is worth
very little, but in finished steel it be
comes valuable. Labor digs the ore,
puts it through the smelting and refining
processes and the hand of labor does noj
leave it till the finished product, what
ever it may be, reaches the user. It
would be a mistake, however, to assume
that labor alone and unaided has dug the
ore and transformed ht into the finished
product. No laborer or group of labor
ers could, with their own implements
and equipments, dig millions of tons of
ron ore and transform it into steel arti
cles which could be sold at the prices of
today. There must be steam drills, dy
namite, steam pumys, hoisting engines
and a vast general Assortment of other
equipment. Without these there can be
no system of tunnels ;and shafts. After
the ore is brought to the surface there
must be smelters and steel mills. There
must be railroads to take the iron and
steel to distant points where it is needed.
There must be an organization for the
transaction of business, especially needed
in finding a market for the products. It
is a long road from the ore in the moun
tain to the ultimate consumer aud at ev
ery stage of the journey capital is needed
because wages and other expenses must
be paid at each stopping place. Without
prompt payment of wages, labor is weak
ened. Capital is the life blood of labor
and without labor, cabital would be a
Samson shorn of his locks. There should
be no warfare between labor and capital.
As long as it exists there will be no real
improvement in business conditions.
Governor Baxter and uis Council have
decided to eliminate all the departmental
bulletins of the various State depart
ments. This may seem to many as being
what is known as “peanut politics,” but
we heartily commend the Governor and
Council for their very sensible action in
this matter. There has been too much
official horn blowing imanating from
■some of our State departments.
A Washington despatch says that in
formal requests have been made to the
United States, for international negotia
tions regarding naval disarmament. The
United States government is evidently
waiting till it is known 'whether or not
England and Japan decide to renew the
alii ance which has existed between them
for many years.
The secret service department of the
Uni ted States sends out a warning that
$2 bills altered to represent $10 bills are
being worked off by crooks who follow
the circuses. A word to the wise is suffi
cient.
THE ROAD TO PROSPERITY.
Mr. James J. Davis, Secretary of La
bor, in a recent address, warned against
“eif orts on the part of big business to j
smash labor unions. He outlined the
business conditions in the last few years
and said that in the inevitable readjust
ment “the farmer was the first h t, and
he should have been the last.” Continu
ing, he said:
“Labor unions, are an organic growth
of the times. If you smash them you
will have in their place secret radical or
ganizations which will lead directly to
the revolutionary spirit which is unset
tling Europe.”
“This is no day for the loafer. The
man who does no work should receive no
pay. I mean the rich loafer as well as
the poor one. The loafer is a thief and
worse, for you can put a thief in prison
when he steals your money, but the
shirker steals your money and you do
nothing. The time is here when the la
bor union must say ‘We will not work with
the shirker, who is lobbing his employer
and who is robbing all of us’. The unions
should either fine or fire the loafers. If
they do so the time will come when em
ployers will demand of every employe a
union card.
“Let the employer be fair to his em
ployes and iet t e employes give an hon
est day’s work. We are all too liable to
think privately that harmony between
the employer and the worker is an ideal
impossible of attainment, but I do not
agree with that. Let the employe bring
clean hands to his work and use his head
as well as his hands."
Referring to the reversal in industrial
conditions, the Secretary said: “The way
to get back to prosperity is to work
back.”
Eats Everything That Come
Along, No More Diet
‘‘As you have been a Godsend to me,
that is ‘a friend in need is a friend indeed,’
I will write and teli you about the value
of your medicine—Dr. True’s Elixir—be
lieve me it done me good. I eat every
thing that comes along, no more diet. I
even tried raw onions for a test. Is that
not luck after nine years only milk and
eggs?” Mrs J, E. (Nutley, N. J.)
Here is one of thousands of cases where
Dr. True’s Elixir has helped. Sufferers
of constipation and indigestion must have
a Laxative—it is essential to good health,
Try Dr. True’s Elixir; it will surely win
your thanks. Easy to take—mild—no
harmful drugs.—Adv.

Unless you are particular in
your choice, you are not likely
to get the best. If we were not so par
ticular about the wheat we buy for
WILLIAM TELL
FLOUR
we could not give you the quality for
which this flour is famous.
Our big mill is located right in the heart
of the richest wheat-growing section of
the country.
There is so much wheat from which to
choose that we can and do select only the
very best as good enough for William Tell.
By being equally particular in every man

Tell is fine and clean and pure.
If you are particular about your baking,
