Washington, July 17.—Another strenuous effort was made yesterday by the senate judiciary committee to perfect the. Clayton anti-trust bill and some progress was reported when the session ended. It now is hoped to have the measure ready early next week. The tentative draft made by the sub-committee was carefully read by the full committee and several changes were proposed, upon which discussion will continue tomorrow. While the committee was at work on the Clayton bill the interstate commerce commission bill was again under discussion in the senate. Sen- ator Cummins, of North Dakota, in- sisted that the term ‘‘unfair compe- tition” was improper and that the proper phrase to use was ling of competition by unfair meth- ods.” Senator Willlams agreed with him. d Term Grossly Indefinite. Senator Sterling of South Dakota, said the term ‘‘unfair competition” was grossly indefinite and certain to unsettle business just at a time when the business world had learned the meaning by court interpretation of the Sherman anti-trust law. He pro- posed an amendment conferring upon the courts the power to enforce or mission. Senator Newlands replied that the words “unfair competition” estab- lished a sufficient rule of action 'for the guidance of the commission, and that it was desirable to give the com- mission all the freedom from the courts that could be given in a con- stitutional way. Brandegee Raps Conferences. Senator Brandegee bitterly attacked the proposed legislation as “half baked” and said the court was afraid to attempt to find out anything about it. “Business men who go to the White House and give out.prosperity interviews in exchange for a free lunch do not understand what a dese is to be administered to them in this trade commission,” declared the Con- necticut senator. “If the country knew what is com- ing there would be a panic. This commission provides for a lot of gov- ernment snoopers, spotters and spies charged with power to make noth- ing but a list of dont’s. It is not fair for. congress to set up such a com- mission, which passes on business as fair or unfair, but does not guaran- tee the business man against assauylts { from the department of justice wien he proceeds with the sanction of the | trade commission.” HAPSBURG WINS $50,000.

We are interested in learning that the Roxboro district of this city has a citizen who has just had the very uncommon satisfaction of celebrat- ing his 104th birthday, and who has been a laborer on one farm for eighty-three years. In discussing the agricultural uplift Mr. Roosevelt ac- knowledged that the most difficult rural problem was that of the farm laborer. It is a satisfaction to know that in one case at least the prob- lem has been solved, and that sum- mer and winter, seed time and har- vest, have seen one farm afford con- stant employment to one laborer. Our venerable fellow-citizen, who hired out on the Roxboro farm in the middle of the first term of Andrew Jackson, has supplied the public with a “schedule of his hourly occupations for the day, which in the main is sat- isfactory. He has an hour’s start of the man who merely obeys the in- junction that He who would thrive Must rise at five for he rises at 4. Perhaps a young man might be expected to rise earlier but after his 100th birthday we be- lieve.that no man can be blamed for lying in bed till 4. A quarter of an hour later he feeds the horses, which takes ten minutes, He begins milking as soon as that is over and breakfasts at 5:30. Of course, we should like to know whether he is milking for sixty-five minutes, but none Wwoula grudge him a few minutes’ rest, ana, of course, he should have time to clean up. He curries the horses, hooks up for the milk train, takes out a load of hay or the plow, does chores, ana takes an ‘hour for dinner, which per- haps he ought to reduce, by no one would make unreasonable demands of a man of his years. Ho does oda jobs,” takes the cows to milk, cleans the horses and gets his supper at 6. Then his schedule says, “6:30, loaf around; 9, go to bed.” Here is where Satan, Wwho finds some mischief still for idle hands to do, has a chance to get in his work. This old. man is loafing around for 2 1-2 hours after getting his supper. Is that right? 1Is it setting a good example to the youngsters on the place? Is it really the best thing for him? Nothing does so much to keep a man young and active as constant oc- cupation. Idleness is the mother of‘ mischief, and it's a great provocative of old age to settle down on a man and claim him for its own. Wouldn't it be wiser for this well-meaning man to resist the temptation to loat all the evening and to find some work? He might pick over potatoes by the light of a candle, or grease the har- ness, or scrub the milk pails, or cut up some kindling wood if the wooa- shed is so situated as to be lightea by a candle in the kitchen window? We hate to see a man give up and relax his energies just because he 1s getting Into years. All the treatises on old age urge sturdy resistance to that temptation to lie down, yielding to which so often makes men old be- fore their time. stock.
