THE Homecoming Recie@ is not only
pleased" but "well pleased by the
stand taken by Senators German and
Wilson on the question" raised by the
Vest amendment to put bituminous
coal on the free list.
AS Senator German is nominally a
democrat the Reoieao's appreciation of
his course does not count.
Put the great man as democratic CD
candidate before the people of
Georges Creek and the ReoteD could
not get him a half dozen republican
votes on account of his coal tariff
record.
And nobody knows this better than
Senator German himself.
Consequently, there must be some
other object than popularity with II
class at the bottom of the great mans
undying devotion to mining labor.

Gov. LUCE, of Michigan, hol'

Gov. LUCE, of Michigan, holds
another view of it:
After giving the subject much attention |
am impressed with the belief that prison
labor does not compete with free labor to the
extent that is popularly supposed, because
the materials to construct prisons are pre-
pared by free labor; food and clothing are pre-
pared by free labor. Free labor superintends
institutions and shops. Free men are en-
ployed as chaplains, physicians teachers,
keepers and guards. 1t is doubtful whether
in an economic view the prisons do not give
to free labor nearly as much employment as
they take from it.
But leaving all that out of the ac-
count the JOURNAL cannot see how
much more man in the penitentiary
is competitor with outside labor than
he was before he went in.

PEOPLE frequently come to the JOUR-
NAL and ask "why don't you do this
or that" forgetful of the fact that
there is nothing within the domain OF
a boom that the JOURNAL has not ad-
vocated and urged. But the paper
cannot do everything; in fact, its en-
ployment as a boomer has popular
action for its ulterior purpose. The
people must move at last. Says the
Orange (Va.) Obsercer:
We know that newspaper editor is expect
ed to boom his town and all that; we know
that without something of the kind we can
not make very rapid progress i'll the way of
improvements but we know, too, that when
nobody blows but the editor, and no one fol-
lows his advice, his pen, paper and ink are
used in vain and his labor lost.
