THE OTHER MAN’.OPINIONS.
Thnt man Is a philosopher who can
hear some other man advocate a prop,
osltlon directly opposed to some pet
a
theory of his own, and not feel resent
ful or conclude that the other man Is
lacking In sound mental qualities.
It Is a weakness of human nature to
magnify the Importance of our own
Ideas and opinions and minimize those
of our neighbors. How easy It Is to
laugh at some enthusiast zcaloimly
following his Ideals along lines which
tall to appeal to us, hut how quick we
In turn resent tho snoor or the conde
scending smtlo of tho Individual who
throws cold water on our own projects
or brands our most cherished aspira
tions as chimerical.
In this country we assert that all
men are horn free and equal, that life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness
are our birthright, and that each of
us is entitled to his own opinions
whether they happen to suit anybody
else on the face of the earth or not.
But. do wo always concede In prac
tice what Is guaranteed in theory?
Here Is a man who advocates this or
that prlnctplo—of politics, of religion,
of moral conduct, He Is slncore, but
we entertain views on the same ques
tion contrary to those he expresses.
We tell him ho is mistaken, and ac
commodatingly point out his errorB.
But he refuses to see with our eyes,
and In turn endeavors to convince us
thnt ho Is right and we are wrong.
Then we turn away In disgust, quite
satisfied that "that man Is a fool."
It Is a very easy but a very unsafe
and unwise thing to call a man a fool.
In tho first place, we are apt to be
mistaken, for fools are nothing like as
common ns some of us appear to be
hove. Smarter men than any of us do
not share our views on burning ques
tions of the hour, and still smarter
men have failed utterly to solve the
problems which must bo mastered be
fore we can oven realize that It Is

Some of the small politicians, fol
lowing tho example of the Atlnnta
Journal, are becoming very reckless
.. about what they say In the present
gubernatorial campaign. Whether they
“not all of life to live."
Onr opinions may Impress others a
great deal loss than tlialrs Impress us.
However modest a man may be, he is
apt to have an exalted idea of the
value and importance of his own opin
ions, a fact, however, of which he is in
danger of losing sight when he goes to
make up 1i1b estimates of others.

UNION LABOR DEMANDS.
In theso strenuous trades unton days
throughout the North and East, the
exacting demands of the union are
not only enforced in life, but even In
death. In New York those who die
now have a perilous trip to the htth
orsldc of the Styx, and next we may
expect to see effort made to have good
St. Peter apply the union label rule at
the pearly gate. The situation in New
York nt present Is stated ns follows
by tho New York Times of Monday:
Forty-three funerals had to be post
poned yesterday on account of tho
strike ordered by Fnnoral Drivers'
Union No. 164. which comprises the
funeral and wedding coach drivers
employed In tho livery stnbles below
Fourteenth street. As was the case a
week ago, when tho uptown union
wont, on strike, all the funerals that
reached cemetovles met trouble. In
some Instances the strikers and their
friends stoned hearses, In an effort to
hit non-union drivers, while at the
cemeteries many of the non-union men
were badly beaten and hnd to leaf,-
their conches to get away with their
lives.
From the Northwest comes the re
port that the scarcity of labor prom-
arei fooling others. Is not always up- j ses to i, 0 a 801'lous problem during
but
there can be no doubt of the fact that
fv; much of the argument that Is being
used in the campaign iu the interest
of Candidate Hoke Smith Is specious
the intelligence of the people of Geor-
L gla. And some of the drummers—not
-all drummers—are about the worst of
1 the lot. The writer heard a company
of drummers talking up Hoke Smith
at a local hotel not long ago, and, hop-
, ing to get an explanation of the np-
fact that so many of the trav-
HESdin
ellng men are actively boosting Hoke
Smith's candidacy, he asked for infor
mation, and this is what he got from
of them: “Just because we are
- damned tired of paying so much rail
road fare.”
There you are!.
And you can’t argue a question with
' a man who has himself fooled like
that, or who thinks he has everybody
■ fooled with such rot '-j;
the coming summer. The sheep coun
ties of Montana and Idaho are calling
for men to assist in the lambing sea
son at $40 and $45 a month “and
found." Railroad laborers at $2.25 and
$2.50 a day And ready employment,
and the construction of at least one
railroad in the mining country is se
riously delayed for lack of men. The
New York Tribune is authority for the
statement that in some instances the
roads are offering free transportation
and guaranteeing two years’ work.
The late summer months will prob
ably see a higher wage schedule in
force for unskilled men in the harvest
fields than ever before in the history
of the Northwest.
A Solid Town.
From Amerlcus Tlmes-Recorder.
The elements took another dip at
Albany a day or two ago, but that
solid town is too firmly fixed c every
way for even a tornado to shake tt
very severely.

A WaycroSs man who has just made
tile rounds of the Eleventh Congres
sional District declares that Colonel
Estlll will carry every county in the
district. And this, too, after Hoke
Smith has already carried so many of
these counties—In the Atlanta Jour
nal.
Postmaster Robbed.
G. W. Fouts, Postmaster at River
ton, la., nearly lost hts life and was
robbed of all comfort, according to his
letter, which says: * "For 20 years I
had chronic liver complaint, which led
to such a severe case of jaundice that
even my finger nails turned yellow;
when my doctor prescribed Electric
Bitters, which cured me and have kept
me- well for eleven years.' Sure cure
for Biliousness, Neuralgia, Weakness
and all Stomach, Liver, Kidney and
Bladder derangements. A wonderful
Tonic. At Albany Drug Co.’s drug
store. 50 cents.
