"DENY IT: NOW PROVE IT.” The Dublin Courl«r-ll<*rnl<l remark! that "It lun't Joe Itrown llie pnlltliiiuix are afraid of. It'a the powerful cor porations back of him.” and the Haw klnavllle Dlspati'h brain to argue It out. If gbc Dublin Courier-Herald should be called on to prove Its aaaer ftlon we doubt If It Is in position to do so. and if this la true It la an Injustice to the ex-governor to bring such a charge against him, rays the Despatch. Oh. well, the man who undertook to prove that Napoleon 'tonnparte ever lived in said to have met with serious difficulties, but we don't know that th-re was any Injustice In his "un proven” assertion. Personally, we don't believe that (be '•powerful corporations" will get bark, of Joe Hrown'a cpndidacy because we don't think they want their represen tatives In the senate and In she guber natorial chair to bear labels and lit tle Joe has pasted himself all over with things that look like corporation labels Ns matter whether they can lie proven to he corporation lahels or not. HOW LABOR HAS BEEN TAUGHT. We find Mr. J 1,. of Wa bash college Indiana, writing to the New York Times and taking very much the same view the Herald dikes of Hr Rockefeller's championship of the laboring man's "Rights." Mr says that Mr Rocke feller's fair words on the rights of men with regard to their Joining vol untary associations for their, own In terests seems u little wide of the fact to him, since at the Rockefeller mines In Idaho a card must he signed by all applicants mi which thev must state w hether they belong to a union or not If they do belong to a union they are not employed. "What chance." Mr 1-eonard aska. "has a workman, dependent on his wage alone in bargaining for a wago and working conditions against a com pany having abundant financial lack ing? A lone workman must simply take the crumbs thrown from the rich man's table Rockefeller wants to play the game with loaded dice at all stages Men of wealth organise com panies to exploit the natural resources of the country and the labor resources as well. It is not a fair game unlesa the workers In and Industry are so or ganised that they ran present a solid front against an array of wealth, and then ask for a lair division of the in come which their laldir has assisted in producing “ The 1 Leonard letter goes on to point out to Mr. that labor has learned the force of combination and unionism from capital and not only thta. but labor has had the example of the sucres* of not giving free con ditions of business, from the oil and steel Industries In the history of these great Indus trie* which tells of the methods used by Industrial combinations In these branches to orush competitors—meth ods that surely did not give free con ditions of business or show fair play, the labor unions have been ably taught "If." It la asked, these great Industries had the right to put com petitors out of tmalnrsa by fair mean* jr foul, haven't the union men a right to feel that they can put out their EVERYBODY TALKS ABOUT MONEY AND DISEASE (From the Argonaut.) Henry Cabot Lodge tellw uh In hi« volume of remlnlscrenreH that man ners have changed a good deal since he was young. He was taught and vigorously taught that he must never refer to physical ailments in general company and that It was the height of vulgarity to speak of money or of the cost of anything. But ail that has now been changed. Money talk is as common around the social board as it is In congress, and as for physi cal ailments there is simply no line drawn anywhere. Well, what else shall we talk about? Conversation Is necessarily confined to tiie topics that interest us, to the things that wo understand, and in this particular year of grace, of progress ivism and of reform we are Interested in nothing and wo understand nothing but money and disease. as competitors, the non-unionists, by the same methods? It is simply a case of the rule work ing both ways, but when it runs con trary to the interests of those starting the game, they want to change the rules and appeal to the umpire, Uncle Sam in this case, to forfeit the game in their favor. What we need to remember about, these labor and capital disputes is that Justice never comes out. of partisan ship Until we free our minds of the dis position to take the “side" of capital or of labor, we shall arrive at no con clusions, worth reaching. There are wrongs on both sides and blindness to the right of labor or to the right of capital will only create new troubles. When labor, capital and the general public decide that all they want Is fair play, vM shall see our way through some of the confusions and will get this big problem adjusted, but we don’t believe those who want fair play, and fair play only, are the strong voices in the present muddle of social conditions. The Life of the Farmer (From the Country Gentleman.) I think that the life of a hunband man of all others \y the moat delect able. It 1m honorable, it Ik arousing, and, with Judicious management, it is profit a ble. In Indulging them* feeling*, T am led to reflect how much more delightful to the undebfliiched mind Ih the task of making improvements on the earth than all the vainglory that run be ac quired from ravaging it by the most uninterrupted career of conquest, I know of no pursuit in which more real lnd Important service can be rendered to any country than by Im proving its agriculture, It* breeds of useful animals, and other branches of a husbandman's rare. Turn About Fair Play (From London Answers.) As Sitndy holed out on the first green, his friend from over the Border ; asked: "An.l how many strokes did yujl take "' "Might,“ replied tlio Scot. "Ah." said the Englishman, "I took seven; so that’s my hole." The Scotsman ventured no reply; hut when on thi: second green the Englishman repeated hi* former ques tion, and made Inquiry aa to the mini her of strokes taken by his opponent, the latter nodded Ids head, and, with an expression or infinite wisdom on his face, gently murmured: “Nay, nay, my mannle; this time it'a my tur-rn to ask first." HOME FINANCE. "Our neighbor la rutlier difficult." "How so?" "Ehe borows eggs and wants to pay hack In lessons on the piano." I Charles Eliot Norton tells us that toward the end of his life it became impossible to collect half a dozen or so persons who could pass a few hours in intelligent conversation, and this was in Boston. It would be much more impossible now; if there can be j such a thing as degrees of irnpossi- l biiity. 4 ; Disease as a topic of conversation is due first of all to an increase in individual selfishness, which in its turn leads to a coarsening of rrientai fiber. The conventional question of "How do you do?" is no longer accept ed as a greeting of courtesy. It is regarded as a serious pathological in quiry, and the woman to whom it is addressed considers it necessary to enter into minute and delicate revela tions that would bring qualms to the stomach of a crocodile and a blush to the checks of a. satyr. The Success of Cresinus, a Small Roman Farmer (P!lny.> Cfurlus Cresnius, a freedman who had much larger crops upon a small field than his neighbors hail upon their extensive farms, won greatly envied, and accused of withdrawing the produce of the people's fields by witchcraft. Being brought to trial, and fear ing that he would he condemned, Immediately before the question was put he produced In the forum all his lalx.rlng utensils, and brought along with him a stout daughter, well fed and elotheri, his Iron tools nf the most excellent construction, large spades, heavy shares/and oxen in the best order. Then he said, "These, Homans, are my charms; nor can I show you, or bring Into the forum, my night meditations, my matchings and rrty tolls,” He was unanimous ly acquitted. SINCE BABY CAME Since Baby came In last mid-May I have not seen a single play. Tho newer books remain unread— A little life I've conned Instead, So full of heavenly lines, and sweet From silken head to mse-plnk feet. Hlriee Baby fame, with needs so great, M.v hats and frocks are out of date; Her carriage, cot and garments small Have swallowed up our little all; But other things I gladly miss My baby's blossom face to kiss. Since Baby came a look of home Upon yur tiny house has come: Her toys are scattered here and there. Her little touch is everywhere; And l.ove is dearer, holier flame, And brighter burns since Baby came. —Txmdon Chronicle. The Little Girl Next Door Near tny window nil day silting. Sometimes weary and heart sore, I can watch the Joyous flitting Of the little girl next door. Like a little winsome fairy, ■ bich as lived in days of yore, Full of gleeful glares airy Is the little girl next door. I’retty little witch entrancing, Made for mortals to adore— Running. Jumping, skipping, dancing. Ones the little girl next door. Hhe, the Idol of (he others, Worshipping her shrine before— Father, mother, sisters, brothers Claim my little girl next door. And she makes my day seem brighter; Fkics arc bluer Ilian before; And she makes my heart grow lighter— Does the little girl next door. And I pray, when ehlldhodd’s pleas ures. Childish Joys are past and o’er. I.lfe will shower richest treasures t>n the little girl next door. —Winifred H. tiWnn. INDOOR SPORTS At At At By Tad THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA, GA.
