CONDUCTED BY MRS. \. L. HOBBS,


"A Bloody Grade Crossing Acct
|dent"is what the newspapers called
it. The body Of John B. Kerfoot
was found horribly multilated, Sun
day morning, at railroad crossing
in this city. The paper proceed, TO
tell what prominent positions be
held as travelling salesman for a
wholes ale grocery, and as clerk for
the Big Four Railroad Company.
The account, however, winds up
with this significant sentence: "Sat-
|urday night be was last seen at John
J. Kelley's saloon, 1905 Meek st. at
II p. m.
The Sentinel makes this the basis
for their usual cam mpaign cry. "Abol-
fish the deadly grade crossing" We
submit the proposition, however,
that If it had not been for the sa-
loon John b. Kerfoot would not
have been killed, whether the grade
crossing be elevated or not. Fur
thermore, if it was not for the H.
,cense law there would be no saloon
to make him drunk and send him
forth to meet an awful death. Fur
thermore, if it we're not that pro-
fessed Christian voters support Ii
cense parties there would not be
such law on our statute book. The
good book says no drunkard shall
inherit the kingdom of heaven.
But in the last day, when John B.
Kerfoct shall stand before the Judge
ment bar to answer for deeds done
in this world, we believe that be-
side him will stand the church men,
ber who stained his hands with a IL
cense ballot. What will his sem
tence be?-Phalanx.

The voters OF the state should bear
in mind that 1t was Democratic leg
islature that enacted the present ia,
law and provided for the appointment
OF tax board; that 1t was Republi
can convention that denounced the
law: that United States Senator Fair
banks was chairman Of that conven
tion and in his speech echoed the de
nunciation of the platform, and that
the Journal. the party organ, approved
the platform. Thus the Republicans
were united in their opposition to the
law and did everything possible tc
hamper its administration. The same
party is now claiming all the benefit
that has come from the law and is
declaring that the Republicans have
reduced the state debt one-half.

THE STEEL TRUST.

The latest statement given out by
the United States steel corporation
shows conclusiveiy how easily the peo
pie are plundered when all the prod
ucts of one class OF industries have
been brought under one MANAGEMENT.
and 1t is thus enabled to fix whatso-
ever prices It may. The statement Is
published for the encouragement of
investors and, when this is done vol
unfairly and the corporation really
boasts of the millions IL Is filching
from the people, one may see how fu-
tile would be law to compel such
corporations to make their earnings
and investments public Yet that is
the means by which some OF the Re
publican statesmen would proceed to
suppress the trusts.
In view of the fact that the state
ment is made for the benefit of in
vestors 1t is fair to assume that II
shows the exact truth regarding the
matters with which 1t deals, and, be-
cause of the popular prejudice that
these combinations have evoked, 1t is
morally certain that II has not been
exaggerated. II puts the earnings Of
the corporation for the last three
months at $50, ,7C4.643. For the nine
months ending with September total
earnings. after deductions for repairs
renewals and maintenance, and for in
terest on bonds and Gxed charges Of
subsidiary companies. were $101, 49,
15S. Subtracting $10.774.105 for sink
ing fund on bonds of subsidiary com
panies and for depreciation and reserve
funds the remainder is $90.3GS. .053
which is applied on the securities Of
the company. And after the appor-
tionment of s13,6S0.0o for interest on
bonds and for the sinking fund there
Is left net balance OF $76.CSS. .053.
But $34.647.9S2 is classified as undi-
vided profits applicable to increase OF
depreciation and reserve fund. ac-
counts. new construction or surplus,
and upon this showing quarterly divi.
dends of 1 u per cent on preferred and
per cent on common are declared.
This. then. is what a monopoly OF
the steel and iron business of this
country can accomplish, and IL is
shown conclusively that the millions
thus made are possible to the concern
only because 1t has stined competi-
tion and is able to fix the price to the
consumer. Every farmer who buys an
ak. hoe. q rake. q moving or thresh-
ing machine or plow: every carpen-
ter who buys a saw, a Ratchet, a plane
bit. a chisel or any other kind of q
tool into whose makeup iron or steel
enters; every man who buys a nail;
every smith who shoes horse; in
fact, everybody in the land who uses
iron or steel in any form whatever,
Is victim OF this extortion and con-
tributes his mite to these millions OF
profit. The story told by the state
ment is ono of brazen-faced monop-
oily which Is coming more and more
to dominate various lines Of trade. and
which represents consolidated inter-
est that Is inimical to the people
through the sitting of competition
and the acquisition OF concentrated
power that may be felt in national
and state politics as well as In busi-
ness.

Out Of His Own Mouth.

One OF the ludicrous spectacles
which Is now presented 10 the public
In connection with the strike in the
anthracite coal fields is that of David
M. Parry OF indianapolis trying to
bring about a settlement between the
miners and the Pennsylvania opera
tors. Mr.. Parry, as president of the
National Manufacturers association. is
sending out circular 10 congressman
urging them to defeat the pending bill
in congress which provides for an
eight-hour day. AS an individual en-
ployer of labor he has raised his voice
time and again against organized labor
and his factory at Indianapolis Is a
|non-union concern. In fact. Mr.. Parry
has resisted every effort of his en-
ployes to organize, and has invoked
the means that would tend to this end.
for instant discharge was the penalty
for Joining the union. Not three
months ago the national organizer Of
carriage factory employees visited In.
|dianapolis for the purpose Of organ.
izing Parry's men, but Parry showed
|such bellicose attitude towards the
union that the attempt was abandoned
But here is Mr.. Parry's opinion OF or.
ganized labor, as expressed by him
in the Indianapolis News Of Friday
Sept. 10:
1T is the dream OF the labor move
ment Of this country to place all labor
in one mighty trust. and then to
squeeze the employers ad libitum
Shouldtthis ever come about, it will
be case of the tail wagging the dog
for the ordinary mind is not so con
stituted as to run large enterprise
successfully. The successful employer
represents the brain Of progressive On
terprise. The workers are the hands
and feet by which he is enabled to ex
ecute. II the brain is paralyzed there
| is little need for the hands and feet
in the worlds economy. Men would
still live, but they would lapse bacl
into barbarism. Just as active. ambi
tious intelligence is given rein, SO does
the world progress
The walking delegate" is an eye
sore to Mr.. Parry. and in the same in
terview he characterized him as pro
fessional agitator and attributes t
him all the trouble that exists betweel
labor and capital. These men," h
says. make specially of Matching
trouble" and he passes on to othe
subjects. in all of which he shows I
marked antipathy to labor organiza
tions.
Mr.. Parry is an ideal Republican
but the only difference between hin
and others Is that he speaks out Il
meeting" when others, for the sake o
policy. keep quiet. But how a mar
holding such sentiments could hope e
be influential IN bringing about set
tlement between the miners and opera
tors is something that the fates do no
reveal. Parry may carry all the in
fuence of the National Manufacturers
association into such meeting. bu'
he is ID. M. Parry after all and a recog
nized foe to organized labor.

Five native murderers will soon so into
eternity together at San Isidro, Nueva
Ecija, the instrument of execution being
the garrote. The names of the men are
Nazario Alhambra, Basilio Palaming
Vicente Doria and Francisco Baltazar.
The sentence of death was pronounced
day before yesterday by Judge Manuel
AraullO. Seven others will spend the
next seven years in Jail, and one has al
ready escaped by death during his incar-
ceration.
The crime for which these men were
sentenced was a most atrocious one. In
February, 1900 they took from his home
in San Isidro one Leopoldo PaIacio, his
wife, child, sister-in-law and servant.
Some two miles distant they cruelty muir
dered with bOlos all but the servant No
motive is known for the tragedy except
that Palacio was suspected of friendli-
ness to the Americans. and that of rob-
berry. Jewels and clothing were stolen to
the value of 1897, gold.
The crime remained secret until April
of this year, the natives who were cog
infant of it fearing to make it known
On that date, however, the Fiscal of the
province, learning the details, caused the
arrest of the murderers, and instigated a
suit against them. Santiago LucenO, a
native attorney, appeared for the defense
The evidence of guilt was, however, over
whelmlng. and a speedy conviction fol-
lowed. with the result stated above. No
date has yet been set for the executions.
