STRIKES are III progress OH every hand
strikes among railroad employees, building trades
unions, laundrymen, etc. The whole country
seems almost ready TO 20 on strike. And the
majority of the strikers keep right on voting
the old party tickets and getting it IN the neck.
Some day, they'll learn better. Some, day,
they will find out that the way TO get what
they want is vote for it. Some day, they will
see the advantage of changing together"-of
cooperation of socialism, if you please-and
then the strike will be thing of the past.
The time is not so far off as you think.

CARNEGIE FOR GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP

Andrew Carnegie has declared himself i'll
favor of government ownership of the railroads.
He saws: ut would be an excellent thing for
the people if that we've done. Look at the
economy that would be effected if all the rail-
WAYS were under state control. Fares would be
lowered and the comfort of the passengers
would be looked after"
Andy will have his wish realized before many
years, and, little later, the government will
take charge of the steel works and lot more
big manufacturing institutions, along with the
iron mines, coal mines, etc. 1t will all come
in our time, too, Andy.

Miss Anna Held carries about with

MAINTAINS JOSEPH
SMITH WAS TRUE
PROPHET
Asahel Fl. Woodruff, Mormon
Elder, at Conference Of
Latter Day Saints, Says
Smith Predicted What
Would Befall Stephen A.
Douglas - MOrmonism in
Minnesota.

"There is one striking prophecy
made by Joseph Smith which stamps
him as being prophet of the Lord"
declared Elder Asahel H. Woodruff
yesterday afternoon at the annual con-
ference of the Latter Day Saints, held
at Central hall
The speaker, besides being an elder
of the Mormon church, is also presi-
dent of the Northern States mission,
which includes Illinois, Iowa. Wis
cOnsin, Minnesota and the Dakotas.
IF one prophesies and it comes to
pass" continued Elder Woodruff, then
you know he is true prophet.
I'm 1912 Stephen A. Douglas was a
young man, and had no reputation to
speak of as a lawyer. He was cir
cult judge in Illinois, and one evening
dined with Joseph Smith. During the
evening Douglas asked his host to
recount the founding of the church Of
which he was the head. Joseph Smith
answered the request by speaking for
two hours on the subject, concluding
by informing Douglas that he was to
be president Of the United States.

UNVEILS STATUE
OF VIRGIN MARY
Rev. Patrick 0'Neill Says the
New Woman Is a Poor
HOusekeeper.

An audience which crowded st. Vim

the blessing and unwilling of a statue
of Our Lady of Grace last evening.
Nespers We're conducted by Rev.

and following the service, Rev. Law

Rev. Patrick O'NeiIl, pastor of st.
Michaels church, delivered the sermon.
taking for his subject, Devotion to the
Blessed Virgin" He said in part:
The virtues that go to make up a
Christian life today were exempIified
by the Blessed Virgin. 1t is we'll that
we have her statues in our churches
and schools in order to inculcate in the
young the virtues of the Blessed Virgin
Mary. The Chris tan family is the
basis of society and the Christian fam
lily Of today is threatened in America.
With lax divorce laws and examples
held up by the modern society woman,
1t IS not popular any more to be at the
head of a Christian home
The new woman, the platform ora
tor and the wOman's rights defender
are absurd. 1t Is not the place for
woman to take part in public debates.
She may be eloquent, but still she is
out of place. She brings discredit
rather than credit on herself. These
women public lecturers are poor house
keepers at best. The Virgin Mary is
the model Of every Christian woman
and every upright woman. 1t will be a
sad day for America when the Chris
tan home is destroyed"
The services closed with the benedic-
ton, pronounced by Rev. Michael Gal
lagher.
The statue, which is of life size. came
from France, and was presented to St
Vincent parish school by Rev. Mark
Cooney, rector of St Joseph's church
at Waterloo, Iowa. The donor is a per
sonal friend Of Rev. Lawrence Cos
grove, pastor of st. Vincents church
Today the statue will be placed in po-
sition in the school house
Another statue, one OF St Joseph
also donated by Rev. Cooney, win be
unveiled and blessed on Palm Sunday
and afterward placed in the parish

OVER BOARD BILL
Fight Over One Dollar in
Dispute Brings Knife
Into Play.

In fight over a board bill Of 81 late
yesterday afternoon Arthur Ross is al
legged to have stabbed Frank AIberg,
9O2 Gaultier street, inAicting a painful
flesh wound.
Ross boarded at Alberg's home, and
the latter claimed that his boarder
failed to pay his entire bill, leaving a
balance Of 81 due. The accusation
was made in the presence of several
friends Of both men, and this angered
Ross. A fight followed and Ross was
severely beaten.
While Alberg was pounding his vic
tim it is said that Ross seized a large
carving knife, which was lying on tho
table, and made a Iunge towards Al
berg. One Of the witnesses to the fight
cried out a warning and Alberg stepped
to one side in time to avoid the blow.
Ross is said to have again attacked
his victim, sticking the knife into Al
berg's back, directly below the left
shoulder. Alberg fell to the flF,r OF
the kitchen, where the fight ACQUIRED.
The police were notified and a physi-
clan summoned.
When the patrol wagon arrived Ross
and two companions, who gave their
I4dIileS dS dtIlCh ~ 4OOIe anu JUN
Anderson, were found in a barn in the
rear Of AIberg's home. Later Alberg
told the police it was Ross who did
the cutting and that the others were
but witnesses of the affray. They were
held, however, and win appear in he
police court as witnesses this morning.
Alberg was weak last night from the
loss of blood, but the attending physi-
clan says that unless unlocked for
complications develop he viii recover.
Ross IS charged with assault with
dangerous weapon.

your hand against my people, you will
fail, were the final words Of the
prophet.
In 1860 Douglas was nominated by
the Democrats for the presidency, and
everything looked favorable for his
success. Abraham Lincoln, however.
was nominated by the other side and
elected. The cause of the failure of
Douglas was that he failed to heed
the warning given him by Joseph
Smith. In 1857 an anti Mormon cru
sade was started, and Douglas, in
order to curry favor with the voters,
took occasion to refer to the Mormon
church as a cancer which must be
burned out. This is but one of the
many prophecies made by Joseph
Smith, and it is convincing, and should
be that this man was a true prophet
of God"
Elder J. w. Hill, in a brief address.
also alluded to the prophecy made by
Joseph Smith as to the breaking out
Of the Civil war, and pointed out that
tWenty-eight years before the war he
had even named the state in which
the rebellion would assert itself The
prophecy made by Joseph Smith that
greater things would yet come to
pass" had not yet been fulfilled, and
one Of these was the gathering again
