YORKEY’S
--BARON-KIKUCHI
IS PROGRESSIVE
;>oi, as a rule, are ine reguiaiiou
addresses delivered by notables on
festal occasions before Colleges or
Universities, at all original, or in
any way worthy of note. As a rule
there is in such addresses a formal
stillness and an odor of mustiness to
conform with their surroundings. A
notable exception to the rule was the
address delivered at University Col
lege, London, by Haron Kikuchi of
Jaj>au. The Huron advised his coun
trymen to abolish their own and
adopt the English language. In all
the speeches made, and articles writ
ten, and inventions schemed in favor
of an international language, the
Huron’s suggestion is the first step
and the. longest step taken in the
right direction.
Strange as it may seem, the schemes
to establish an international language
—Volapuk, Esperanto, or what not—
by manufacture has found ardent re
sponse among Socialists. This is
strange because better things should
be expected from Socialist minds,
accustomed as these presumably are
to the thought of evolution. The
bourgeois reformer, the An-Archist,
and all such imagine society can be
improved by schemes. They ignore
the evolutionary process; in other
words, they ignore facts and adjust
these to their fancies. That such
folks should be blind to the facts
essential to the structure of a lang
uage, and should buckle down to
fabricate a new one is nothing
strange. They know naught of the
evolution that underlies language. It
should be otherwise with the Social
ist. Habituated to the evolutionary
thought he is the last man with whom
so rattle-brained a notion as the man
ufacture of a language should be ex
pected to take lodgment. The scien
tific habits of thought the Socialist
has presumably acquired, and whioh
cause him to reject ail “schemes” for
sooial improvements, should be
enough to open his eye6 to the fact
PROGRESS IN
ELECTRICITY
The first installation of electric
lights on shipboard was on the Amer
ican steamship Columbia, of the Ore
gon Railway and Navigation company,
in 1880. the plant comprising four of
the original type Edison machines,
belt driven.
Since that time her progress in con
nection with marine-electric matters
has been rapid. While there are three
great enemies of electrical apparatus
to contend 'with in sea service,
namely, salt air, moisture and heat,
and the marine engineer was duly
afraid of them, the many obvious ad
vantages of electric light aboard ship
helped gradually to overcome most of
the obstacles, and today after much
early trouble with apparatus and wir
ing, electric service is one of the well
established commodities afloat.
Telephone equipments today are re
cognized institutions aborad ship,
controlled from central offices as in
shore service. Electric heat alarms,
too, are in use'in ships’ coal bunkers
to give warning of dangerous temper
atures rises and the liability of spon
taneous combustion. There are, fur
ther, electrically operated elevators
which, of recent years, with half a
dozen decks, hare become virtually
necessities and not simply convienc
tea.
In the gymnasiums aboard these
ships else complete systems of appli
ances Off the Zander system, are in
stalled, and ell these ace operated by
electric motor*, ' An - electric light
bath cabinet is atlil another abjunct
to the modern ooean liner’s equip
ment, and in the ship’s barber shop
some of the well known types of eleo
trie massage apparatus have been
adopted.
Wirleleas telegraph apparatus, too,
as almost every one knows, has come
into extended service in the various
navies and merchant marines, and no
passenger steamship today is consid
ered complete without it.
With all the interest and import
ance attached to these several electric
marine applications, however, the
moat promising filed for the future
service of electricity aboard ship is in
the substitution of electric motors for
steam and hydraulic engines operat
ing the auxiliary machinery of which
so much is installed on a modern ves
sel. - A good deal has been done along
this line dunhg the past half dozen
years, bat much remains yet to be ac
complished.—Electrical Record.

A language does not consist of'
wdrds.' A language is a structure,
and that structure is the. slow growth
of a thousand and one social and
ethnic causes. Words are hut the1
clothing of tlie structure of a lang
uage. No more' than man can he
created, as (Joethe’s Wagner tried to
do, hy cristalizatiou, or a new social
order by a scheme, can a language he
created artificially. That a universal
language will one day he spoken is
certain. The same causes that have
given birth to the scores of languages
in existence, will lead, if not drive,
civilized man in all latitudes to
choose a common means to exchange
their thoughts hy.
IJaroLi Kikuchi's suggestion is
planted upon these principles. It re
jects tire idea of an artificially con
structed language and suggests a nat
ural one. It is in this respect that
the Baron’s words constitute the
first and the longest step so far taken
in the direction of an international
language. Before one cau move for
ward the path must be cleared of
rubbish. The rubbish of manufac
turing a new language impedes today
the path toward reaching the inter
national language. The Baron’s error
in imagining that English, one of
the existing, living languages, can
become the international medium of
thought is an immaterial error. More
likely is the forecast that Latin, the
most heroic language ever spoken ; a
language that, besides being a spon
taneous growth, has a monumental
literature upon which modern intel
lect has found it profitable to whet
itself, and has gone in several degrees
into all the European languages—
more likely it is that such a language,
already international to a certain
extent, will be raised to the dignity
of actual internatioaality.
At auy rate Baron Kikuchi has done
well.

TO TEDDY
Whereas, The capitalist class, thru
their flunkies, by sending troops to
Goldfield to make the majority, the
miners, submit to the will and die
I tates of the minority, the mine own
ers, have again shown to what extent
'profit extractors will go to satisfy
i their gluttony.
i The capitalist class, through prat
ling of democratic rule, show by their
acts that they believe in class rule.
They, the capitalist class, show in
every act, that they consider the
I working class only chattels, only
1 things that are useful in making a
life of ease and comfort ftr them
selves, the capitalist class, whereas,
the most distinguished citizen of the
United States, the noted reformer,
the trust buster, the gentleman of the
“square deal fame," the brilliant
author.
Whereas, The judge of citizens, has
once more become conspicuous for
his class acts and thereby shows him
self fitted only for class rule, instead
of the servant of all the people, as
pretended.
Whereas, the govethot of a great
state, the official who is supposed to
see that the rights of all citizens are
respected, baa shown himself the Witt
ing tool of profit mongers and stock
gamblers, and is therefore unfitted
for a position of trust in a nation of
toUirs.
Whereas, The working slass or any
portion thereof, can only protect
itself from the encroachments and
abases of the capitalist class by or
ganizing themselves into a thorough
class organization; therefore be it
Resolved, That we, Local 93,
I. W. W. of Portland, Oregon, call
upon workingmen of all nationalities,
both skilled and unskilled, to organ
ize themselves into an economic or
ganization, that will have power to
give dignity to labor, that dignity
which capitalist politicians tell of at
eleotion times, and be it farther
Resolved, That we extend our sym
pathy to the miners of Gold field and
commend them for the stand they
have taken and to stimulate them tc
their best efforts, we remind them
that their fight is one for manhood
for homes, for liberty itself.
