Fear. 
Fear is man’s greatest enemy. It 
hampers all men in every walk of 
life and because of it, hours which 
otherwise could have been spent in 
happiness and peace are ruined and 
go by beyond reeall, leaving the 
mind and nerves the weaker for its 
dread work. Fear and prudence are 
often associated. Fear as a whole- 
some deterrent is valuable but as a 
governing power over all life it is 
paralyzing. Prudence moves into 
the future cautiously but over 
prudence ending in inertia is fatal 
to action and consequently to char- 
acter. In every walk of life there 
is an element of chance which must 
be taken in faith. A farmer plants 
his seeds to the best of his judg- 
ment and takes his chances. Ile 
cannot wait for perfect climatic 
conditions for these never come be- 
cause, ‘‘he that observeth the winds 
shall not sow and he that regardeth 
the clouds shall not reap.’’ He 
works in faith and the season 
teaches him that every season will 
bring forth his harvest if he but la- 
bor. Nature is a faithful rewarder 
of the diligent laborer. Each busi- 
ness day the merchant takes a pru- 
dent chance and moves forward tak- 
ing his loss and making h¥ gain. 
To keep his goods is ruin, and he 
takes on more to cover the loss on 
the old.

faith and each loses when fear, 
which is the lack of confidence pos- 
sesses the mind. The soldier and 
sailor in action take their hazard 
and where fear possesses the mind 
no gains are made. Chaplain Craw- 
ford of the Navy tells how in the 
Battle of Manilla the gunners 
pounded away through the smoke 
while he ran aloft occasionally to see 
if they were doing any execution. 
To wait until they were sure of ev- 
ery shot would have been folly. 
Through fear men failed to seize 
present opportunities and shackles 
are bound to the hands. It was the 
faithless investor in the great par- 
able who said, ‘‘I was afraid and 
hid my talent.’’ Fear is an enemy 
every man and woman must conquer 
and must continue to do so for fear 
has as many different forms as the 
sands of the sea and no one is im- 
mune. He is the eommon Arch 
Knemy of all humanity. Industry 
plunges into the stream and boldly 
swims across, its own efforts giving 
warmth to the body, while Fear 
stands trembling on the bank. 
The United Shoe Machinery Case. 
It. is of commercial value and for 
the public good that the status of 
the Shoe Machinery Company be es- 
tablished. The North Shore, par- 
ticularly Beverly, has for some years 
had an interest in the affairs of this 
great concern. It is to be noted that 
the case has merely been indicted in 
a United States Court which indi- 
cates that the case if there be a case 
has only been opened and a final 
decision must of necessity be re- 
mote. There are open questions 
concerning the methods of manage- 
ment of the United Shoe Machinery 
Company not germane to the Stan- 
dard Oil or the Tobacco Company 
Cases. The United States Courts 
alone can determine the legitimacy 
or illegitimacy of the corporation’s 
business methods. Unlike the other 
issues the case is being prosecuted 
against the individuals and _ not 
against the corporation. If a case 
is found against the organizers of 
the corporation it is apparent that 
there will be a case against the cor- 
poration and an order to dissolve 
will ultimately follow after the usual 
legal procedure. The corporation 
has determinedly fought every inch 
of ground up to the present issue 
and will doubtless carry the case to 
the highest courts. If the corpora- 
tion has not violated the United

States laws in restraint of trade, 
they can have nothing to fear from 
an investigation. In truth they will 
gain, for it will set at rest the antag- 
onism of varied interests. No harm 
‘can come from the investigation and 
the shoe company will be able to ad- 
just itself to the new conditions if 
such new conditions be found man- 
datory by the courts. No business 
corporation which violates the high- 
er laws of equity and justice can or 
should endure. If the Company has 
been maligned the opening of the 
case in an established court of the 
people will grant an opportunity 
for it to justify its conduct and give 
the alleged oppressor and the al- 
leged oppressed an impartial trib- 
unal before which to present their 
respective claims for judgment. 
Tuesday the Twenty Sixth. 
Next Tuesday will be the first di- 
rect primary held in Massachusetts. 
For years there have been attempts 
to commit the State to the new 
program. The last legislature com- 
mitted the State to the new direet 
primaries and on Tuesday all of the 
State officers will be nominated at 
the polls by the people. It will of 
course, do away with the nomina- 
tions by conventions. The muddle 
into which the democratic state con- 
vention fell last year, resulting in 
the nomination of the present incum- 
bent of the gubernational chair will 
be impossible. There are many ar- 
guments which may be used against 
the new method but there. is no 
doubt about publie sentiment on the 
question. They wish to see it tried 
out. The new primary law is not 
an innovation for states in the 
Mississippi Valley have tried the 
plan. It is now in vogue in New 
Hampshire, and the present gov- 
ernor was nominated in a direct 
primary. The representatives of 
the Beverly-Danvers district, Her- 
man A. MacDonald and John I. 
Saltonstall voted for the measure in 
the last legislature. They are can- 
didates for re-election and will re- 
ceive the support of the republican 
voters. 
Herman A. MacDonald. 
Since the service of William R. 
Brooks, Beverly Farms has not been 
represented in the legislature until 
the election of Mr. MacDonald. Mr. 
MacDonald went into the office as 
representative of the people un- 
usually equipped to do good work
