Oyster Shell. emier Ross man again Journal ' wagon for the man whose whole previous life i was a life of small trickery and close and questionable dealing, a true esti-' mate of his chan'table actions will *, soon be formed by the general public. How sad it is to think of the vast num- ber of electors who hold themselves open for the highest bidder and how much sadder it is to think that the “loose fish” in most constituencies are so used by political trickery as to prostitute the sanctity of many elect- ions. It’s sad but true, and the heads of our governments are largely respon- sible for the glaring injustice. The reason why some people never get along in the world is that they are too smart. The clever man rarely suc- ceeds. and that only when he has enough common sense to be clever on a special line. The averageintelectual ability of the men who make a failure ‘ , in life is far ahead of those who come ‘ to the top score. The man with Or- dinary horse sense who plods along and knows enough to use what comes his way will always “make” money. The clever man is usually a faddist, and will theorize while money slips through his fingers. The clever man will write these on “Success in Busi- ness” that are models of business clas- sics, but will fail five times while his tortoise neighbor is making a. single fortune. Never despise a man with fringe on the bottom of his pants. It is almost unfailing sign of genius. Some extravagant nonsense is written on the clever men who have become "me rchant princes” or “political lead- ers,” who have simply known how to coin circumstances into cash or politi- cal capital. The late Sir John A. Mc- Donald was nota clever man in the sen se of brilliancy or exceptional intel- lectual ability. neither will the warm-1 est friends of Sir Wilfred Laurier claim for him more than the genius of being able to turn every circum- stance to advantage . The men who have made their mark in commercial ‘ life have been those who have learnul ‘ their business thoroughly, and had sense enough to profit by any oppor- tunity that came their way. Beware of being too restlessly, intellectually, overreachingly smart.-â€"Solomon. \Vhen success depends upon string pulling and log rolling let those have ‘t who think enough of the end to adopt the means. Push abandcart all your life rather than get mixed up with the cattle who are “in the pull.” r'l‘his degrading principle is leavening , our social and business as well as our 3 national life. Pull is taking the place of brains, energy and intregrity. \Vithout pull it is impossible to please the god of politics. In business “pull” is making its influence felt, and it is not sufficient that a man shall have means and ability to get the best that is going, he must be able to give the “grip” and take the “signs” to secure all that his money and position ought to bring. Even the church seems to i lend its tacit sanction to the doctrine that pull is mightier than worth. As soon as a man with “pull” gets inside the doors the whole church toadies to him. They make him a warden and his wife president of the "Ladies Aid.’ Even the minister of the gospel is not above bowing the knee to this modern Baal, and not only does he offer in- cense at the individual shrine, but acknowledges the supremacy of the idol by taking a hand at the strings of the church organization himself. This servile, sniyeling homage to the machine is unworthy a being made to stand upright in the presence of the Eternal God. \Vhen brains, dignity, honor and industry are prostituted to mere success then is man fallen indeed from his high estate.-â€"â€"Solomon.
