TA0 PHILOSOPHY AGES OLD
A Reltalawe System Loaded Dowa
with Haddhlsm Domlsntri
tfclaa.
Human endeavor, since man became
man, ha taken two directions. Each
ek a conquest; one, by controlling th
material force of nature, alms to Insure
existence and happiness; the other, by
mastering the unseen, superhuman forces
of nature, seek freedom from pain and
eternal life. -
If one could view, a from a nearby
planet, the accumulated age of humanity
spread out on earth like a carpet, emi
nence of various holght would be seen.
They would not be equally distributed.
Certain region have produced more than
others. Nor would the dale of their
origin be the same. These eminences
mark the effort of Individual men to
rise uprlor In thought or deed to th
common mold; these men have attempted
to lift up to the etime eminence their
fellow creatures. But It has 'been hard
work.
Ther has been much slipping back,
sometime landslide on a huge scale.
Could men of eminence, especially the
spiritual leader of the world, return to
earth they would probably be amaxed
and appalled at the depth to which many
of their teachings have sunk In tha mire.
They would ee amaxed at th thing done
In their name.
Lao Tsse especially could be little less
than thunderetrurk at the system of re
ligion called Taoism. Now Taoism,
strictly speaking, I the philosophy of
Lao Tsse. Ws know little of Lao Tsze,
certainly no more than we do of Shake
tlx are. Lao Tsxe was not hi name; It
mean "Old Master." The man who gave
the world the philosophic system "tno"
was Ll-poh-yang, born 004 B. C. He wa
an officer of the archive Rut be re
nounced the world, settled as a hermit
In th bill of Hunan, where he wrote a
book Ireatlng of tao and virtue.
Curiously enough, Confucius, though a
contemporary, doe not mention him,
though a conversation with Lao Tsse
about hi philosophy la attributed to Con
fucius. Ll-poh-yang wa a much deeper
thinker than Confucius; In fact, he was
the meat profound of ail Chinese philos
opher. HI legacy to the world was th
Tao-teh-klng, "Tha Canonical Rook of
Tao and Virtue." It wa not a religious
system, but a scheme of philosophy.
Tao I tha "way" or th "path," hence
a method of principle of reasoning. As
a verb the word mean "to speak." There
fore tao la a kind of universal logio.
eternal. Immaterial, omnipresent. It Is
the creating, Imposing and arranging
principle of all being.
It was hardly to be expected that such
a system of philosophy would have many
followers. Tuolsm I Irreconcilable with
Confucianism. But with the Introduc
tion of liuddhlsni, Tnolsm gained a real
and prixnlnwit hold on Chinese life. ' It
supplanted lUiUuhlsm. HuddhlHtn Is penal
mlntio about evil and freeing from evil;
there la none of this In Taoism, lludil
hlsm, beginning with the atheistic teach
Uis of Hudi.llio, became excessively poly
theistic; Taoism, developing from a phi
losophy, loaded itself as a million with
so many elements of UudJhtatn that It 1m
difficult to dlffervRtlnte between th two.

into a roseate future. Little he dreamed
that twenty-seven year hence h should

ago. Ha worked for the Union Pacific

Herrley and Mr. Morris had been lining

Increase is Shown
jn Freigttf Traffic
on Union Pacific
Notwithstanding tbe report of bad rail
road busluesa this fall, during October
the Union Paclflo passed 10,000 more
freight cars through North Platte than
during the corresponding month of one
year ago. Presumably the Increase held
good over the entire system, being much
heavier west of Cheyenne, at which point
car going to Denver and Kansas City
and point to th south are diverted.
The Increase In freight traffic, cam as
something of a surprise, as It waa not
expected so soon. In measure It was
due to the heavy fruit crop In Washing
ton, Idaho, Montana and Utah, which
this year was a little earlier than usual.
While the rush shipments are over,
business continued to hold up unexpect
edly well. Now the orange movement has
started from California and there Is a
large amount of live ctock coming In
from the northwest,
During August the Union Paclflo laid
off a large number of men and discon
tinued many of the freight train. When
the Increase In business came all trains
were put back and employment given to
the old men. As a result the road la
now running th full quota of train and
the normal force of men.

Everybody h broad thinks Well of a pass
port, but nobody bets quite so high a
value on It as a pawnbroker. Owing to a
delayed remittance I had occasion to
visit one of those gentlemen In Paris.
The article I offered for security was
worth many times the lonn requested, but
he rvfusrd to advance It on account of un
satisfactory references. My temporary
