Register Eo Growing Older And so while many people of ripe experience view the passing of another year with wistful ness they need not view it with sadness or dis couragement, True another year with all its sins, sorrows, frailties and disappointments, as well as its tri umphs and joys has passed neyer to be recalled; still there is another year before.them in which there is an opportunity for growing older, if they s0 desire; not perhaps in that make-believe fash- jon in which a little boy dreams of “over the hills and far away,” but in such a real fashion ee to enable them to carry over into it all the experiences of the past, for warning, suggestion, example, encouragement, The wise man will seek to avail himself of this opportunity for the pass ing of the year will remind him onee again of witness to his strength rather than his weak- ness. In a case where such a man is fitted by ability and experience to fill a publie post there is no common sense reason for his rejection there- after as unavailable, Lincoln was u “lame duck’ ‘after one term in congress—that is to say he was not returned to the house—indeed he started his public career with defeat as a candidate for the legislature. McKinley was a “lame duck” when he was nom inated and elected governor of Ohio and set on his way to the presidency, Roosevelt was a “lame duck” after his defeat for mayer of New York, but showed considerable political sprightliness after that temporary reverse. Groyer Cleveland was a lame duck after his first term in the presi- deficy, but he served a second term, President Harding was defeated as a enndidate for gover- nor. of Ohm, but he did not stay “lame” long, Few men of distinction have jed to fall short at times of majority support for their ambitions. The “lame duck” stuff is drivel, especially when it is used as the basis of an “argument” that onee a man has been defeated for reelection to | congress harm may come to the eountry by his serving out the remainder of the term to which he has becn elected: Not all the brave men in an army surviye the battle, ‘and not all the wise and competent lead- ers in polities and public affairs escape defeat in faet very few of them do. Plenty of num- skulls and demagogues have been elected to of- fiee and many a good man has gone down to de- feat at the polls, The voice of the people may be the voiee of God, but God does not use that voice on every minor oecasion Mandate to Business From the monthly publication “Law and La- bor,” published by the League for the Protection of Property Rights is taken these sound remarks: “The fact that for a period of five years dur- ing which the people of Europe and America were in need of work and things to replace what had been consumed in the war, it was necessary to stand by and fight off the destruetive doe- trines of socialism, is too important to be for- gotten, “Iven with the comparative prosperity and rapid advance in the living conditions of all our people, Mr. LaFollette demonstrated that a body of nearly 5,000,000 voters, or one «xth of the vot ing population, can be organized to make an as sault upon the very foundation upon which our strength is builded. Adroitly led, this bedy of voters may exercise great influence and possibly become a decisive factor at an election, They are the constant threat to political and indus- trial progress. “The peeple by their ballots have now eleared the way of blocs, nostrums and scandal-mongers. They haye restored confidence and directed these who are ready and willing to advance the nation’s work to do so in reliance that their efforts will not be hamstrung by the government, It is part the rapid flight of time and with its opportu nities for making the most of life, Somesne has likened the course of life to the marble statues which frequently are used as fountains in publie gardens. There they stand cold, placid, lifeless, yet out of the lips of these marble figures a clear stream of water continu lly flows. In some respects the analogy is ap- propriate, ‘Time, like the water which passes through those marble figures, runs swiftly with out pausing until it has run itself out so far as an individual is concerned, But there the analogy ends, for men are not marble statutes, The water in passing through the marble figure on the Loun tain, makes no appreciable difference in the fig ure, but in the course of time through the life of a man, he vither becomes better or worse, If, therefore, at the passing of another year a mai realizes that at some period the course of time must of necessity come te an end, sa far as he is concerned, such a milestone will not be meaning less. Indeed, it will be full of instruction, In National ‘Terms In the old days when the raising of cotton by cheap labor was the only industry in the south the planters, who were the leading politicians, were strongly in favor of free trade. Their cot- ton crop did not need protection and they, thought that they could saye money by buying their fin- ished products in the cheapest market which then, as now, is Europe. Their principles were purely sectional, not national, and it seems not te have occurred to them that the south could not permanently prosper if the industries in the other parts of the country were paralyzed by cheap European competition. But now all of this has changed. Manufactur- ing industries haye sprung up all over the south and are constantly Increasing. Many New Jing- Jand manufacturers have taken their entire plants to the southern A‘lantic states. Tron and stee! now figure in the prosperity of the south too, and the southern farmers, driven by the boll weevil to the task of diversifying their crops, have found that many ofsthe things they raise demand protection from the cheaper agriculture of the Old World, For this reason and because of the increasing business stability and prosperity of the south, the leading men of that section are coming more and more to agree with the doctrines of the Re publican party in spirit at least. It is true that old traditions and old prejudices survive and most of them up to this point have continued to vote the Democratic ticket, while secretly hoping that the Republicans will win. The time is evi: dently not quite at hand when the ald section alism can be entirely wiped out. Yet it is significant that the criticism of the Democratic policies and blunders, is being more and more open in independent southern news: papers, and that the leading men of that section re coming to speak more openely about the short mings‘of the so-called Jeffersonian party publican victories in the border states are ecoming mere consistently frequent than they lerade ago and it behooves the Republi van leaders to pay some attention to these import ant commonwealths, It is not at all likely that vere a the Democratic party will mend its ways in a manner that will meet with the entire approval f 6 Democratic business men of the south ta of the bigger Demoeratic leaders would like to do this, but in the accomplishment they ould alienate the backbone of their support in orthern and eastern states to win the ap proval of a section of country which they al re ominate, For this reason and because of the growing prosperity of the south, the time is when seetional lines are to be wiped out and the people of the United States will be in a or fair way toward thinking nationally instead of locally, so far as their general political prob: | lems are concerned. of the duty of the industrial leaders to preserye and extend that confidence, LaFollette and his political associates are watchfully waiting to lead us back into the fog from which the confi- dence of the American voters has just set us free. They will net abate their efforts. Their weakness lies not so much in their numerical strength at this election, as in the feilure of their political organization to work harmoniously, " “But they are with ug still and working still, and it behooves us to keep up the conservative campaign, to seek out the fomenters of trouble and to meet false statements with constant edu- 1, constant frankness and constant cour. The mandate to the business men of the coun try is plain. They should get on the job and stay on the job. Tt is a plain duty a patriptic duty a duty that must not be negleeted if the four dations of our system ef government are to be preserved and strengthened to withstand all fu ture assaults of radieals, socialists and demoge gues. Public Has Inviolable Right The Railroad Labor Board in a brief filed in the United States cireuit court of Chicago, sets forth the proposition that, though the railread employes and the railroads may default them- selves in matters in which the board has juris- diction they cannot thus default the third party interested—the public. The public has an inter- est because an inc: e in rates of pay may be reflectec 1 demand for increased rates for ear- riage, which it would pay. It also h interest in the rules govemming working conditions and hours of labor, aside from their social aspect, since the rules may be unnecessarily burdensome causing unnecessary expenses, and so sustain ing rates of carriage at an unnecessarily high level, the brief argues. The action is brought by the board against a brotherhood official who re fused to testify in a w dispute, Power of the Atom Chemists in various parts of the world are busy trying to break open the safe that contains the most wealth of any in the world. This safe is the atom. For wealth is the product of work and werk is the application of energy, and the most powerful and concentrated form of energy consists of the balanced forces of the positive and negative electrical particles inside the atom. These forces are most intense in the nucleus of the atom, the sun of the atemie system, The atom of radium is in an unstable state and ac- casionally throws off a fragment from its nue- leus with a velocity of ten thousand miles a sec- ond, This speed is twenty thousand times faster than a rifle bullet, and consequently its energy is four hundred million times greater than that of the bullet, mass for mass. Now if it were possible to excite a similar in stability in the atoms ef other elements than rad ium, we might get enormous streams of- energy out of them. Is it possible?
