A POINT
OF INTERES T..

Jacoby Bros. stores, for reason Of their
enormous size, their wonderful variety of
trustworthy merchandise and their very low
(the lowest) prices, have become the shop
ping headquarters" for nearly every family in
Los Angeles; while to all visitors of Southern
California it is naturally one of the most in
teresting points in the city. Our aisles have,
during the past week, been as crowded as
they would be were we in the midst Of great

Armory hall presented gay spectacle
last evening. The occasion was the
celebration of ball by Court Colum-
bus, 1918 Spanish American court
Ancient Order of Foresters OF America,
in honor of the Inauguration Of the
court. The programmes were models OF
artistic Rplendor. Refreshments both
liquid and solid were served in the ante
room. Lowinsky's orchestra dispeneed
excellent music. To say that the affair
was success both socially and fnan-
cially would be but expressing it mildly.
The entire elite ofthe Spanish.American
contingency OF Los Angeles attended
in full force and large number of
leading citizens, descendants OF other
nationalities, were also present.

perch upon their banners. But they
are hemmed in by foes, in front, on
each side and in the rear, while the
hardest task they have to perform is to
prevent those who should be their
friends and allies from breaking
through their ranks and going into the
enemy's camp Most of the non-com.
batants who profess neutrality, secretly
give aid and comfort to the enemy.
while the nearly four million non-union
wage workers are utterly Indifferent as
to the result, simple bush-whackinp on
their own account and carelessly living
and moving on the low moral plane of
sordid selfshness, caring nothing for
humanity at large, or for the better
ment of the conditions of labor gener-
ally. The scabs are open and defiant
enemies, ever seeking weak spot in
the ranks of organized labor and ever
ready to raid its forces when shattered
and broken by plutocracy's assault
And worse than all are the hordes of
idle, unemployed men, goaded to mad
ness and desperation by the paugs of
distress they suffer and incited to fren-
zied acts by the means and cries of
their gaunt, wan-eyed wives and chill
dren. Can organized labor win the
fight ere it is everlastingly too late and
before the cry of dread or blood"
gives notice to the world that checked
evolution has given birth to revolution?

and imagery and endeavor to show that
the essence of the issue is the demand

TRUSTS AND COMBINES.
They Are Paving the Way For a National
igtic RaDfma.

Ahoy ATc EoftuB tno way FOR q NATIONAL
istic Regime.
The strongest opponents to social
istic enlightenment are trusts, COM
bines and monopolies, and yet these
very combines are educating people in
to the practicability of true socialism
faster than the most ardent admirers
of that peculiar folly (?) can do it
themselves. The grand combinations
of vast railroad interests under one
management betrays the feasibility of
intrusting to boards and commission
ers the handling of consolidated in
terests.
The big sugar trust demonstrates
that sugar can be made more cheaply
and more satisfactorily distributed
through the agency of a single execu-
tive board, than through the old
fashioned method of single and COM
petative interests.
What applies to the railroad COM
bines and sugar trust, applies to $50
other gigantic monopolies.
The only thing necessary to convert
these vast combines into correct exam
plies of socialism, is to remove the pow
er of the trust to force down the price
nf all the things they need in their
business at the expense of the people
and their power to again rob the peo-
pie through an agreement to sell their
products at a certain fixed price repre-
senting profit enough to pay fat divi-
dends ON actual investment and watered
stock.
1t is indeed amusing to notice the adj
vocates of corporations denouncing the
impracticability of socialism while they
go right on demonstrating its feasible
ity by practical illustrations

BRILLIANT FINANCIERING.
Fair Example of Republican Financier
ln2= Nnfhinc q Dr1and

A Fair Example of Republican Financier-
ing-NOthing to Be Proud Of
Uncle Sam has had 500, 600, 600 of gold
in his vaults which has been untouched
for fourteen years. City (Kan.
Gazette, February Il
Very true; and does the Gazette know
how that gold came to be in the treas
ury, and why it remains untouched?
1t was purchased by the sale of inter
est-bearing government bonds for the
ostensible purpose of redemption of the
outstanding greenbacks; and at the
very time when these bonds were sold
and this gold purchased there was
law upon the statute books absolutely
prohibiting such redemption. In other
words, this purchase of gold was made
for purpose for which the law abso-
lutely prohibited its use, and yet the
people of this country have been paying
interest on these bonds during all these
years, while the gold has been lying
idle in the treasury. 1t is one of
the means of contraction by with
drawing the amount of currency
from circulation. This is fair example
of the wise financiering of the repub-
lican statesmen who have controlled
the policy of this government for the
last quarter of a century. The Gazette
refers to this hoard of 500, 900, 600 as
though it was something to be proud
of; and, from a republican standpoint,
it probably is The republican idea
seems to be that it is not only legiti-
mate, but highly commendable, to tax
the masses of the people under every
imaginable pretext for the benefit of a
few avaricious bondholders, and this is
one of the schemes by which it is done.
The proposed Nicaragua canal bonds is
another, and the Gazette and others of
like mental caliber undoubtedly favor
that proposed steal, las welfas those that
have been already accomplished To

The way to bring about bloodless

ergies on the question of the remonetiz-
alton of silver. Road.
The silver states appear determined
to make that mistake, but the populists
of other states will not fall into it.
Free coinage of silver will not
give us a sufficiently large volume
of money and the demands of the
populists is for $50 per capita. If
we gain the free coinage of silver alone
we will never get our demands, for as
soon as we have attained this free coin
age the silver states will turn against
legal tender paper money and fight it
as desperately as the goldites now do.
Populists must stand by our demands,
which are: The government issue all
the money, of gold, silver and paper,
each of full legal tender and keep the
volume at $50 per capita.-St. Joseph

A Fearful Explosion In the Union Pacific
Coal " Inc IN Colorndo.

DENVER, COL, Jan u.-Yesterday at
ternoon a premature explosion occurred
in one Of the chambers Of the Union Pa
cinc coal mines at King, four miles from
Como, where twenty-eight miners were at
work.
II was what the miners call dust ex-
plosion." The shock killed twenty-seyen
Of the men, only one escaping. he being
nearly at the entrance. The bodies were
not recovered until midnight. on account
OF their blacltened condition only eleven
OF the twenty-seYen are recognizable.
1t 10 now learned that twenty-five men
were In the mine and twenty-four were
killed The single survivor was thrown
forward upon his face by the tremendous
force OF the blast, but was not seriously
hurt, and scrambling over the PROSTATE
bodies Of his fellowworkmen. he made his
way to the surface. The noise Of the eX-
plosion was heard in every part OF the
mine, and all the other men working In
the lnine-about seventy-three in number
rushed to the open air. a rescuing party
was quickly obtained. Foul air still came
from the fatal chamber. but the brave
men rushed ia, and brought out the bod
les. The head Of nearly every family in
the little town Of King was employed in
or about the mine, and the women and
children crowded about the entrance, as
the bodies We're carried out into the air.
II was not until after dark that the, last
body was brought from the mine. The
portion OF the mine in which the accident
occurred was promptly sealed up by the
proper authorities TO await the arrival of
the State inspector Of coal mines. The
accident was caused by what the miners
call windy shot" that Is, a charge OF
powder which has been insufiiciently
tamped. The reason of this was the ex-
posion OF the gas in the chamber of the
mine where the men were working. The
conclusion set free and circulated the
black damp, and the almost instant death
OF the twenty-four men followed. Twen-
ty-one were Italians, one was Scotch
man and two were Americans. About
eight of them were married men.

DIED FROM the COLD.
Two People Froze to Death Near Bristol
Few Days Since.

BRISTOL, VA, Jan. u.-Special.-It is
very seldom that people freeze TO death
In East Tennessee or Southwest Virginia,
but two such deaths have occurred in the
past few days in Johnson and Carter
counties, Tennessee, a few miles from this
city.
Mr.. Barnett Hensley and his wife were
crossing Bald mountain, in Union county,,
near Flag Pond coming into Tennessee
from North Carolina. They reached the
summit OF the mountain with difficulty.
and sat down TO rest. Mrs. Hensiey eX-
ercised herself coming up the mountain
and was very warm when she sat down
TO rest In a moment she was seized with
Il very severe chill, and was unable to
move Her husband went at once for as
sistance, and she was carried down the
mountain toward Coffee Ridge. the near
est settlement. but she died before the
house was reached.
The other death was that Of a young
man by the name OF Baker who was
about nineteen years old. He and his
father started from Roam Creek, in john
son county, to his home In Carter county.
They were carrying two jugs of whisky.
When they reached a point on the noun
tain near home the boy became exhausted.
and was compelled 10 stop and rest. He
was thinly clad. and soon complained OF
being very cold, and presently he was
helpless. His father went TO a cabin
about one mile distant for help. but when
he returned the boy was dead.
