Prosperity does not mean simply
employment. Employment may mean
disaster if the employed are receiving
starvation wages and paying monopoly
prices for necessities. After one year
Of Republican party prosperity the
poor are crying for bread and the rich
are seeking entertainment. In Cook
County alone there have been more
mortgages foreclosed, more homes
swept away, than ever before in the
history of the country. Three hundred
mortgages a week is the pitiful record
Of foreclosures during this prosperous
year.
But the monopolists have pros"
pered. The pawnbrokers and money
sharks have prospered. The poor pay

Maintain a Labor Press.

There is very often raised a cry
against the capitalist sheets" from la
Dor ranks, and, judging by the treat
ment we receive at their hands 1t Is
richly deserved. But you should see
the way the capitalist sheets pull the
legs" of the employers Of labor about
election time, and the manner in which
they have, in turn, to cater to the en-
emies of labor becomes easily seen.
These sheets are in business for the
money that is in it, and only when
working people maintain labor press
properly can they expect to have
voice in the molding Of public opinion
to the square cube Of truth"
We take the foregoing from the col
umns of an esteemed contemporary the
Building Trades Journal of Cincinnati,
and take the liberty of commencing 1t
to the earnest attention of trades I'M
ionists the country over. At the pres
ent time it is difficult to find a COM
munity but what supports labor paper
of more or less pretensions-all infin-
itely better ban the support given
them, but all sadly in need of the sup
port given by it's friends" to the polit-
ical paper which flourishes in the COM

What he Had in his Eye.

Dr.. Fitchett, brother Of the editor
of the Australian Review Of Review,
was member OF colonial parlim.st
wherein one day a certain eccentric
and elderly member named Taylor,
insisted on making speech on educa-
ton. The grafton consisted of hy-
periodical eulogy of the board Of
schools in Mr.. Taylor's constituency.
Mr.. Fitchett INTERCEPTED some jocose
expression of doubt
why, sir" said the irate Taylor,
turning upon him, lat this very min
ute have school in my eye"
mo. only one pupil" retorted tho
doctor, and the orators eloquence was

Three of the five deaths Of students
in Chicago University the past year are
attributed to actual starvation by Pres
ident Harper, who also affirms that in
every large university poor and ambi-
tious students sacrifice health, comfort
and life itself in the thirst for an edu-
cation. Startling as is the statement,
1t emphasizes one of the greatest needs
Of the age, proper understanding Of
the chemistry Of cooking, and the detri-
ment to mind and body Of unsuitable
or insufficient food. Two kittens of the
same litter were recently set apart by
a scientist and brought up under identi-
cal conditions, except that their food
was Numerically unlike. At the end
of four months whenever the scientist
held out his finger to one, the kitten
rubbed lovingly against it; whilst the
other would bite and draw blood. No
wonder, says witty commentator, that
around some family tables the women
scratch and the men swear.

remember, l remember
The house where i was born,
The little window where the sun
Came peeping in at morn:
He never came a wink too soon,
Nor brought too long a day;
But now, / often wish the night
Had borne my breath away!
/ remember, ! remember
The roses-red and white;
The violets and the lily-cups.
Those flowers made of light!
The lilacs where the robin built,
And where my brother set
The laburnum on his birthday
The tree is living yet!
/ remember, / remember.
Where I was used to swing; .
And thought the air must rush as iresr
To swallows on the wing:
My spirit flew in feathers then,
That is so heavy now,
And summer pools could hardly cool
The fever on my brow!
l remember. I remember,
The fir trees dark and high;
/ used to think their slender tops
Were close against the sky:
1t was a childish ignorance,
But now t is little joy
To know I'm farther off from heaven
Than when l was a boy.
