Thinking for yourself, acting as you think best, is like swimming against a furious current. It is always easier to go down than up stream, and most men are content to drift along with what is known as public opinion, with no more individ- uality of mind than a sheep, an animal that must have a leader. What I must do, is all that concerns me, not what people think.” This rule, equally arduous in actual and’ intellectual life, may serve for the whele distinction between greatness and meanness. It is harder because you will always have about you persons who think they Aivw what is your duty better. than you know it. y in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it sy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect swect- ness the independence of solitude. There is no one thing that all men love, There never was in the world two opinions alik no more than two hairs, or two grains; the universal quality is diversity. Yet men do not act according to their own dis- tinetly individual bent, but in accordance with the force of that most powerful of winds—publie opinion. Conformity is the favorite subject in the pulpits and in the schoolrooms, yet man owes all his progress to the non- conformists. No Jaw should be sacred to a man but that of his nature. Let every man mind his business and endeayor to be what he was made. Criminal Justice In a speech at the dinner in honor of the justices of the Illinois supreme court, Henry W, Taft expressed the opinion that the deplorable delay in revising the criminal codes and speeding up the machinery of justices was due chiefly to public indifference to that vitally needed reform. Public apathy, in Mr. Taft's opinion, hinders and defeats the efforts of lawyers to enact the necessary reform legislation. There is a widespread' impression among the people that the efforts of the few lawyers actively concerned are obstructed and defeated by other lawyers who are members of the legis- lative bodies of the states and the nation. Dean Pound of the Harvard law school shares this impression. So do other emi- nent teachers and students of law. Many bills to amend the criminal codes are lost or forgotten in legislative committees. Some are yoted upon and rejected with the aid of the yotes of lawyer legislators, The public is not indifferent to the grave crime problem % of the country, but it cannot Jead the moyement for reorganiza- tion of the courts and the modernization of legal procedure. However, it would give hearty support to progressive mem- bers of the bar if it were appealed to in behalf of definite proposals designed to make justice certain. In New York the voters have ratified an extremely tech- nical amendment to the state constitution which enables the legislature to reconstruct the judicial system. There was no apathy on the part of the public in that instance. If the law yers everywhere will give the public a chance to support in- ~ telligent amendments to the criminal code, the results will not disappoint them. By Way of the Mines If settling coal strikes can lead to the presidency, as Goy- ernor Pinchot is said to hope, he has a good many chances for coal strikes in the anthracite regions are frequent. One diffi- culty is that there is no permanent adjustment and even if there was such, the people would forget, unless the settlement came when the public was feeling the pinch, which would not he likely to happen so long as national conventions are at the hottest season of the year. The difficulty with settling a coal strike is that it is invariably accomplished by advancing wages to the coal miners..Any gratitude the consumer feels at end- ing a critical situation is immediately followed by wrath at higher coal prices. That was what happened on the last occa- sion when Governor Pinchot’s offices settled a strike, The coun- try at large reviled him in the end. Governor Pinchot is in a difficult position politically. The state of Pennsylvanta has made it imposs to assert inde- pendence of the labor unions, because Jabor in that state was strong enough to make it illegal to employ any but union men. Pennsylvania candidates felt it the part of political expedi eney to ec le this, But the ion at large is not dancing in the street for anybody who is involved with conditions that wake anthracite prices inordinately and oppressively high. We do not believe Governor Pinchot can make political ( | out of a coal strike adjustment that will carry him to coal pital ihe presidency Following Stabalization Financial stabilization of the railroads will mean great expansion of electrical operation and electrification in many instances will be the result of solving many problems. The fuel saving through this method may be as much as fifty per cent. In addition, the electric locomotive ean be maintained for be- tween one half and one third as much as a steam locomotive of the same capacity, Other advantages are increased reli- dility, inereased capacity of truck and the saving of labor in handling trains. An electrical locomotive, however, costs two or three times as much as a steam locomotive, and electrifica- tion is limited in some cases by the demand of traffic. Labor Information The department of labor library is a collection of about 05,000 cataloged books and pamphlets, probably the largest brary in the world of material on labor subjects and welfare ork, Numerous bibliographies are prepared by this library n sub ional importance including such phases of in- terest a s’ education, federal control of child labor, minors in industry, minimum wage laws, convict labor, hours f work in relation of output, ete. Doing Better Police now arrest about ninety per cent of the intoxicated persons they see on the street, whereas before passage of the teenth amendment they arrsted only about forty per cent, the research department of the World League Against Alcohed ism reports in questioning the correctness of a recent survey by the Moderation league, which held that there was‘as much drunkenness now as before prohibition. Chile Explains Chile explains her apparent protest to the league of na- tions against General Pershing’s management of the Tacna- Arica negotiations as a mistake on the part of her minister to Switzerland. The latter was merely instructed to inform the lengue of Chile's yiewpolut, 4s» had been done by Peru. Will Be Used Congressman Burton of Ohio, who headed the American delegation at recent Geneva conference, strongly recommends American rat> ification of the treaty Larring the use of gas in war. There are strong arguments against the ratification of this reaty. One of these arguments {s stated by Congressman Burton, who algo makes his reply to {t, “Among some milftary men .and some chemists,” ts the way Mr. Bur. ton explains the opposing argument, “this agreement js condemned on the ground that death or disablement by the use of gas is less terrible than by the ordinary implements of war.” And here {s Mr, Burton's reply: “This contention overlooks the fact that the use of gas is an additional method for killing people and in many of its phases {s especially bar- barous. The aim of nations should be to restrict, if possible. means for slaughter and to forbid barbarous agencies." Why the use of gas should be op- posed merely because it fs an “addi: tlonal method” is more than we can see. Nor does Congressman Burton explain how gas “in many of its phases is especially barbarous.” If, as 80 many military men, #0 many chemists and so many physicians de- clare, “death or disablement by the use of gas {s less terrible than by the ordinary implements of war,” it would seem that gas {s less barbar- ous than these other implements, in. stead of being more barbarous. Brigadier General Fries, head. of the American chemical warfare serv- {ce. denies that war ras has any bad after-effects on the victims. If there are any bad after-effects, they prob- ably are trifling as compared to the after-effects of bayonet wounds and of wounds by shrapnel. A visit to'an army veterans’ hos- pital, and a talk with some of the wounded men there, should convince anyone that the old and. recognized Weapons of the infantry and the ar. tillery have caused far more intense and prolonged suffering than has been caused by gas. Gas is more humane, less barbar- ous, than the other implements of war. And gas will be used in the next war, The American . army knows that. International agree. ment or no international agreement. gas will be used. It will be used quickest and most capably by the na- tions which prepare for gas warfare in peace time. In America, a mis- guided public sentiment may pre- vent the army from making effective Preparations. But in some countries in which public sentiment doesn't count for much, the preparations will be made. In that case the United States would be at a terrible disadvantage {€ she became involved in a major war. She should avoid that disad- Vantage. She should refrain from putting the stamp of barbarity on a weapon which is more humane than other war implements. And she should allow her army to continue its chemical research work, so as not to be caught unprepared if war should come. Consider the Postman We have received the following from the carrier force at the Casper postoffice with the request that it be published: Consider the busy postman, friends, As he makes his daily rounds, And packs big loads that often weigh Three score or more of pounds. He climbs the steps to reach your door And put your mail there; ‘The boxes, placed to suit folks’ taste, He finds most anywhere He trudges many a weary mile In sunshine, snow and rain, Just\up and down and in and out, Around and back again. A trained and skilful workman, he. His hands and feet for tools; He works beneath inspector's eye And most exacting rules. Consider the friends, You'll find it worth your while To cheer h'm on his daily rounds With kindly word or smile. faithful postman, And just a word in closing, folks, Please heed it all who can, The one who wears the service gray Is just your brother man. | By Charlotte Bronte, One n when silence reigned around I rd sweet music rise, Whose plike and harmonious sound Came from the star-decked skies.

Was born in Cracow, Poland, In 1861, the son of the famous tragedienne, Helen Modjeska. At the age of 15 he came to America with his mother, They became natural- ized and changed the family name from Modrzew- ski to Modjeski. (His mother al- ways spelled her name with an “a” ending instead of “1".) He became a civil engineer, having been graduated from the College des Ponts et Chaussees in Paris with honors at the head of his class. Modjeski has been a consulting bridge engineer in Chicago since 1892. His present firm is that of Modjeski and Angler. He hag bullt bridges in Illinols, Missouri, Oregon, Qhio, Pennsylvania, Washington, Tennessee and many other states. Some of his best known bridges are the government bridge. Rock Island, UL, McKinley bridge at Celllo, Ore., new Memphis, Tenn., bridge. Dela- ware river bridge at Philadelphia and Columbia’ and Willamette river bridges for the Portland und Seattle railroad. He is a member of Amer- fean, British, French, and Canadian engineering societies. His latest project, the Mississippi river span, will be the longest rall- rond bridge in the United States. packs hotter ak World Topics “Instead of leading gil other coun- tries in the advancement of funda- mental scientific knowledge, the United States occupies a position far in the rear of the majority of Eur pean nations,” an nounced Secretary of Commerce: Her- bert Hoover, In a recent speech. “The difficulty we experienced In securing a place in selence beside the nations of Europe can hardly be due to a lack of men of innate ability. judging from the leading part al- ready played by ——— the Unt States Herbert Heever in finance, in ar- ckitecture and-in applied science, It results partly Yrom the fact that American. civilization is only begin- ning to emerge from the pioneering stage, and partly from the financial and other {nducements which so oft- en lead talented men reluctantly to accept well-paid industrial positions instead of poorly-paid academic and research posts. “We have’ prided ourselves on our practicability as a nation.
