We're being addressed by man who
loved his country and sought only Its
highest good, and that, too, at much
personal sacrifice.
And now this prophet OF the Decla-
ration, this exhorter to patriotism in
politics, is supporting the Tammany
ticket in New York-the ticket of
political corruption, the ticket Of
moral pollution, the ticket Of graft and
the red lights. The same sonorous
voice with the note of pathos, the same
appearance Of earnestness and per-
sonal disinterestedness are no doubt
causing many New Workers to ask
themselves with reproachful voices
why they could ever have imputed
anything bat the highest and most
patriotic motives to Tammany

The Sympathetic Strike.

Mr.. Gompers recognizes that the
labor organization has suffered from
the sympathetic strike when he says
in his letter to the New York Build
ing Trades Union: -*+% r -; fs'47"'sssz I,
IL. It is evident that quite apart from either
sthessjustice or injustice Of sympathetic
strikes that weapon has been brought
into play to such extremes at times for
entirely insufficient reasons that its advo-
Gates now deprecate its use. .E.
The sympathetic strike has certain
ly done a great deal to undermine
the confidence Of the public in labor
organizations and In their ability and
disposition to treat questions of diff
ference between employers and em-
ployes intelligently and fairly. The
action of large bodies of men who
have absolutely no grievance against
their own employers and who may be
employed by those who have no pos
sible means of influencing the settle
ment Of dispute in another concern,
going on a strike simply because the
workmen of some other concern have
some dispute with their employer, in

wrong that public sentiment has put

Let a young man with limited
capital begin to search for suitable
opening for himself and money.
He finds that great factories leagued
together, controlled By one manage
ment, will soon drive him to the

make matches, for q Trust owns the
patent machine and process. He
dare not attempt to turn ont cotton

"The other day, at the convention

COMMUN NICATION,

MR. EDITOR:
In the issue of October 9th Brother
Farnham' spoke as if the tongmen
ought to be almost babished from
sight; they were no good. But, Mr.
Editor, you live in close contact with
good mary, and l think you will
bear me out in saying that if the
oyster industry was stopped, as
Brother "Farnham" seems to want
1t to be, nearly all the stores on the
water would do small business, if
any at all, and the community at
large would feel the effects of il. |
know one merchant at present that
moves his goods from the water in
the summer season and in the oyster
season moves them back. He must
derive benefit or he would not do
that.
Brother "Farnham" seems to want
a favored few to possess all and the
people at large to suffer lie saws.
81 am sure the tongers who now get
all from the rocks before the season
closes would be better off employed
for longer time at good pay" |
would like to ask him who is going
to employ all Of them all the time?
There is nothing they all can get to
do to make living. l suppose he
wants them to starve and get out of
the way; he does not want to live
and let live, be wants the capitalist
to own all. l think money divided
among thousands of people dis
tributed through the country makes
things more flourishing than if a
dozen possess it and combine the
whole thing.
"Farnham" says the tongers do
not even care what the morrow will
be. AS for that Brother "Farnham"
VIII lind some people in all churches
and communities that do not care,
but does he down a church or scorn
his neighborhood because all the
people are not good law abiding
citizens? In regard to breaking the
Baylor Survey, he says it is love of
State. l think it will be love of
money, if it is broken. If there isn't
any money in it, it will never be
broken, am satisfied.

needs OF the country cali for only
about $500. If DR.. Billings is COR
rect, and there is no reason to doubt
his figures, from 1000 to 10000
young men are annually entering a
profession in which they have but
the slimmest hopes of making even
the proverbial Comfortable living.
VI course, it goes without saying
that most OF the professions are
more or less over crowded; but we
doubt if any of them, except the law,
could afford q parallel to the condi
tions of things brought to light at
the New Orleans convention. What
this disparity between the demand
and supply means to this army of
young men, can only be surmised;
but certain it is that in the majority
of cases it will involve the loss of
much money that can ill be spared,
and much time, that can be spared
still less" - -

TOD sLOAN's DOWNFALL
Once Worth 100000. Now Driving
An Automobile For a living


An Automobile For a Living.
Tod Sloan, once the champion
Jockey, is broken. He spent money
like water year or two ago, rode
across the land in special trains, en-
tertained magnificently and tried to
break the bank at Monte Carlo. He
is now working as an automobile
driver in Paris for monthly wages
that fall short of what it used to
cost to keep him one day.
From wardrobe that was equal
to that of any Beau Brummel in the
world, and which made him pet in
society, the little fellow, according
to word which has reached this coun-
try, is in want Of both clothes and a
place to sleep. He is employed tenn
porarily by french automobile con-
cern.
When not employed as chauffeur
ne is engaged in selling machines
for different concerns, who rely pom
his reputation as former Jockey to
bring trade to their shops. His
downfall since being ruled off the
English tracks for dishonesty has
been rapid.
Always Of Determined spirit, he re-
GENTLY toId some acquaintance who
met him in France that he would
never return to the United States
and suffer the humiliation he knew
would be his should they learn that
ne is now receiving less than 81, 900

annually when he last saw his rel
atives.
His foster parents live at Kokomo.

worth 100000 not long ago, but he
gave none to them, and they are not
in a position to help him financially,

Proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers arc worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.
