More Dynamite News

LONDON, Jan. 29,-The Times Paris
telegram says that the object of the
coming meeting of the dynamite dele
gates in Paris is, to propose terms of
affiliation with the Fenan associations.
Several extremists are anxious to form
such a union. They are prepared to
abandon the policy of making attacks
upon public buildings, If the Fenians
will aid the dynamiters in directing
their efforts toward the destruction of
British war ships and with that view,
it is proposed that ex-Head Center
Stephens shall be invited to attend the
conference. 1t is also intended to move
for the enactment of a French law
against the perse ,ution of Irihmen in
Paris by the Bourdier- Montequet detec-
tive agency. 1t is also intended to
discuss McDermott's conduct in remain
ing as spy in the British service. The
leaders of the movement are aware of
the whereabouts of McDermott, and it
is threatened that they intend to offer
a reward for his removal.

From the barisms of 1850 A. d.

Editor Labor Enquirer:
We will turn back in our minds the wheels
of time until the fingers point to the year
1850. To do this we must forget the history
of 500 years with all the progress that has
been made in the intelligence of the race
during that long time.
We will leave behind US in our journey
backward America with all its institutions,
for it has not yet been discovered by Column
bus We will have to blow out the gas, also
electricity, for the electric current was only
known where it was seen as it played in the
lightning. The locomotive nor the old stage
coach have yet been invented. All travellers
must 20 on foot, for that useful animal the
horse has not come into general use.
We must leave brOadcloth and silk also in
our travels backward, as the power loom and
the spinning gin have not been heard Of. The
inhabitants of the land were clothed in the
toughest material or in the skins of wild
beasts, and man almost as ignorant as the
beasts themselves. The greater part of them
were the SerfS and armed retainerS of their
feudal lords; who had already claimed the
land and all that therein was. The first book
has not yet been printed. There has nothing
been heard of the Puritans in England, fol-
the Reformation has not yet taken place. Nc
protestant church and no missionary society
Even coal and coal mining is only just begin
ming to be talked about.

has now come to an end and the black plague
has carried off one-half the people, and those
yet remaining on the land of the living were

Twist. Because our welfare depends on
unity he denies the right of any man to
"hle away to some secluded nook" when
dynamite becomes the popular diversion,
even though the prudent person exer-
cises that precaution at "his own COST"
as an individual sovereign would say.
/ One by one the Anarchists fall into
the ranks of the State Socialists. In gen
eral assertion they are still Anarchistic,
but in detail they see their inconsistent
cies and become disciples of order. What
they call being ''stung to the quick by
covert sneers" is only being worsted in
argument. Those who believe that sci
entific system is practicable have no
need for covert sneers," "Inuendoes,"
Misrepresentation" nor destruction.
The Anarchist programme is, first
grand fight, then the smoke of battle
will clear away, after which the Sun of
Liberty is to beam on an infant world
it could not possibly beam without first
emerging through smoke. The martyrs
are to be hung, then the timid theorists
will come out of their hooks, enjoy the
benefits and with characteristic modesty
claim all the merit of a destruction
which they always opposed.
"These Socialists who rest their hopes
upon peaceful solution by the ballot,
will step in. share in the glories which
others created for them, and of course,
claim all the praise and reap all the
glory"
Any Instrumentation" visible in
the above? Amy ..inuendoes" peeping
out? There is nothing covert" about it
at least. To get even ought to charge
that Cato will raise the disturbance, then
hide, leaving State Socialists to do the
fighting, but will forbear.
Here are some Anarchstic harmonies:
"The old system will be overthrown by
force"
The Anarchists are doing their share
in preparing for the inevitable change"
I'VE can neither hasten or retard it."
Condense this, and we have: We will
furnish our share of the necessary force,
but we can do nothing.
Well, then, if you can do nothing,
come with me to my secluded nook
where we will make an earnest endeavor
to harmonic" on a plan for the future,
while we are waiting for dynamite to
cease lacera:ing the gentle zephyrs.

THE WORKING WOMEN.
They Hold Public Meeting In the In-
terest of Organization which
is u Grand Success.

The meeting announced under the
auspices of Hope assembly. Knights of
Labor 1914, was held at Armory hall on
Thursday evening. The attendance was
greater than even the most sanguine had
hoped for, every chair in the hall being
filled and nearly every inch of standing
room being occupied. A large majority
of the audience were women and girls
and the interest they manifested and
their close attention throughout the
evening were noticeable and encouraging.
Speeches were made by DR.. De La
Matyr, Joe. Murray, of Fort Collins, and
others, the first named gentleman being
the orator of the occasion. The necessity
for and benefits of organization were the
principal themes, and canvass of the
audience by a committee resulted in
securing list of sixty candidates for
membership in the ladies' assembly.
The meeting was a grand success in
every particular, and it is to be hoped
similar meetings will be frequently held
by the wise and brave sisters of 1914.

A Wooden Legged Mans Joke
Miraukee Sentinel.

Speaking of wooden legs, there Is an old
soldier employed in the Government ser
vice in this city who has had some expert.
ence with an artificial limb, his meat one
having been taken of at the knee. Among
the most amusing was one with sleeping
car porter. This pam pered railway tyrant
rarely earns his quarter all round by hispre-
tense of blacking shoes and Tipping dust
from his victims back, but it is the habit
OF this wooden-legged man to utilize the
darby in taking off that leg and making
him earn his hire. On one train he struck
an uppish sort of porter-a brother 10 the
insuferable swell who sings out. Last call
for dinnah in the dining cah That
darby stood around with lauguid dignity
that would make q street-corner dude sick
at heart.
The man with the wooden leg made up
bis mind he would wake that Niger up"
before he Clipped in his quarter.
he told couple of men in the ear his
purpose, and they joined in with him. He
wears his shoe firmly fastened to his wood
en- leg, having no need to remove it and
having fallen once from lose shoe. After
his berth had been made up he went to the
dressing.room and unstrspped his leg,
keeping hold of the strap, and then got to
his berth. Then he called the porter. i've
got rheumatism and can't bend over" he
said, land l wish you'd pull off that shoe. y
The porter united the shoe and tried to
pull it of, but if wouldn't come. "Pull
hard" said the passenger, The darby gave
it another pull. "0S, brace against the
berth and pull" said the passenger. The
porter had blood in his eye. He put bis
foot against the berth and pulled like q
dentist. The passenger let 60 the strap
and the darby fell back with the shoe and
the leg. My God you've pulled off my
leg, shrieked the passenger. The porter
dropped il, and, with his eyes bullying and
bis teeth chsttering, he broke from the cor.
he concealed himself in q corner of the
baggage car, and pretty soon the other two
other conspirators came in, pretended they
didn't know where he was, sat down on q
trunk and talked over the awful condition
of the man whose leg had been palled of,
and about the penalty the dairy would
have to suffer il he should be caught. That
porter was of no service to anybody that
night, even after they explained the Joke
10 him.
