ROYCROFT PHILOSOPHY.
By Fra tlbertus.
Most of i ho really great men in
America have warmed their bare feet
frosty mornings on the spot where the
cows have lain down.
Wo are heirs of the past , both Its
good and Us Ills.
The best soultt suffer most , while
baseness and Haunting pride go free.
Hut pain is not all pain.
Nature punishes most sins , but
blasphemy , sacrilege and heresy are
things that nature does not provide
ny punishments for ; therefore man
as to look after these things himself.
A man's word 5s only valuable when
t Is not for salo.
The greater comprehend the less ;
ul the loss t'annot comprehend the
greater.
Speak today what you think is true ,
ud contradict if all tomorrow if nee-
ssary.
If there is any other way to teach
, 'lrUio than to practice it , I do not
< now it.
MAGAZINE.
In the November isnuo of The
iVorld'a Work there appears the sec-
l chapter of John D. Rockefeller's
lomlnlscences , which ho entitles
Some Old Friends. " In this chapter
10 tells what bis associations wore
, vith Mr. John 11. Arehbold , Mr. II. M.
'lagler , Mr. Stlllman Witt , Mr. S. V.
larknoi-s , and other names familiar in
ho industrial and financial history of
tXmorlca.
In this chapter Rockefeller says :
'It is not always possible to remember
ust how ono llrat met an old friend
or what one's impressions were , but I
shall never forget my flist meeting
with Mr. John D. Arehbold , who is
low a vice president of the Standard
011 Company. " He then proceeds to
toll how , about thirty or forty years
ago , he was traveling about the coun
try , talking with men interested in the
oil industry. While at a hotel in this
district , be saw written largo on the
register , "John D. Arehbold $ ' 1.00 n
bbl. " This ilrst attracted Rockefeller's
attention to him.
The Restriction of Campaign Funds.
Henry Litchfleld West , in the Novem
ber Forum : II is safe to say that no
campaign lu recent years has been
managed with so little money as has
boon in the treasuries of the national
committees during the progress of this
contest. Of the two organizations , the
Republicans have unquestionably pos
sessed the larger amount , but even the
sums at their disposal have been but
a tithe of the funds available in Hie
past. The growth of public sentiment
against corporate contributions , resultIng -
Ing in the enactment of a law which
placed corporations outside the pale ,
has had Its effect upon the party man
agers and they look askance upon
money which bears the slightest suS'
plcioii of taint. Apart from this , how
ever , the corporations are not in
friohdly relation with the Republican
partv. They have been upon a hot
griddle for four years and the exper
ience has not been enjoyable. From
personal knowledge , the writer is
. .ware that several railroad otlicials
who In the past have given substantial
aid to the Republican party have this
year closed their check books , while
many trust magnates , upon whom the
Republicans have relied for financial
assistance , have this year failed to respond
spend with anything like their accus-
: omod generosity. The Democrats
jiave , however , been even more handi
capped through lack of funds. They
have had some money but hardly
enough to meet oven the bare neccssl
ties of the campaign.
One lesson of the election , therefore ,
will , bo that the enormous amounts
which have been considered impera
tive In the past are really not required.
The country should applaud and ap
preciate this knowledge. Each na
tional committee ought to be restricted
by law to the minimum amount of
campaign funds. An election ought lo
decided upon Its merits and not
through debauching ami corrupting
Inlluences.

ROSEDUD AUTO BURNS UP.
How It Took John Arcoren n Month
to Get to Norfolk A Ditch.
Sixty miles an hour , sevonty-five
miles an hour , even 100 miles an hour
la tlfe. pace these days , and yol , i
IIIIB'taken John Aro.oren , of Lamro ,
1'our weeks to come fiom Omaha to
Norfolk. Long before the Tripp coun
ty registration began Mr. Arcoren bad
come to the decision that il would bo
iiofh a source of pleasure and profit
lo possess himself of an automobile.
IXm'l think Mr. Arcoren Is u novice
it the manipulation of the hteerliu
wheel ; he isn't. U has been just the
outcome of an unfortunate network of
circumstances that has been delaying
itm.
About the beginning of the month of
October he went down to Omaha to
mike his purchase , his intentions he-
ug to get back for the rush. He
> ought his car , a Call , but unfortunate1-
y before he wa ready to start for
Dallas he got mixed up in a genuine
'rough house , " injuries received In
the scrimmage kept him in Omaha un
til a week ago.
He started1 from Omaha In company
witli bis son a week ago yesterday .and
tad made excellent time up to arrive
ng at. Stanton , where lie stopped for
gasoline , and , af It was after dark , in-
juired for the Norfolk road. His in-
'ormer , in place of directing him over
the straight nvd which has no turn-
ng" that paral'ls the railroad track ,
sent him off on a roundabout journey.
Two miles out of Stanton , in an en-
leaver to turn M nasty corner his car
wheels skidded , -nd sent him into the
litch.
The broken sidelights of. the ovor-
.urned car ignited the gasoline in the
auk and nothing but the fact that the
icat of the lamps had ; melted the seller -
lor from around the cap and had given
ilr to the'petroleum prevented an ex-
ilosion. Neither of the occupants of
.ho c-tr were Injured , although both
weie tiling wide into the ditch.
By the timu Mr. Arcoren bad scram
bled out , , his feet the car was burn
ing fiercely. It was the critical mo-
viiV'nt , but few persons would have
liven the blazing pile ii second look ;
n fact , the majority would have been
' .uiniing the earth to got themselves
out of danger. But Arcoron knew a
little about gasoline him&'elf and kept
ool. lie know that just so long as
the air could get to the oil he was
? afe , and turned in desperately to save
ais car. By dint of much throwing of
sand he finally extinguished th"
blaze.
The woodwork 'In the head of the
car was burned away and the tiring
of one wheel destroyed.
With the aid of a farmer and' a
team of horses Mr. Arcorori brouglit
the damaged car to Norfolk for re- ,
pairs.
The car is now in the Koyen garage ,
on Fifth street.
Mr. Arcoron owns considerable prop
erty in Trlpp county ; "just'a little
garden patch , " is his method of ex
pressing the four and a half sections
of allotment land he possesses.
His ranch is situated six miles north
of Lamro and about eight , miles form
the IT. X. ranch.
Mr. Arcoren stated that the prairie
lire-which swept that , section wont bj
on either side of Ills property without
doing him any damage at all.
. JIo-expects to havo. his car in condi-
on to leave for jMirdrn rronday morn
ng. .
"Just wait till I cro&s the Niobrara , '
aid Air. Arcoren , "I bet you make
p for time lost. "
