Let the Child PIaV

There is no more melancholy fact than that the
children of large cities do not know how to play
There is no use trying to deny it; it is undenabe
The boy of the small country town has more genuine
nerve-tempering, muscledeveopng, courage-breedlng
fun in a minute than the city boy has in year
The swimmn hole at the willow screened bend in the
creek has been the of more genuine joys than
whole city afford
And the games in the country are different from their
feeble counterparts in the city In the country the
games naturally adapted to the exhuberant spirits
of youth In the city they poor limitations OF the pro-
fessiona games of grownup men.
In he country the child to be part OF nature,
In the city he partakes of the glded with which
conventonay seeks to hide vulgar nature from human
eyes.
In the cities must establish gymnasiums and ap-
point physical directors in the public schools to teach the
children how to play In the country these things would
be superhous institution to teach birds to sing
The child that is allowed to free at play is hap
by the birds That childs laugh has the heart
ring has the birds song The glow in its eyes and
its cheek is and true the reflection of the
sun upon springfield spring.
Take moment some time and note that child. It
will be time well spent.
Observe how its spirit blends into that of the multi
form life about it. 1t and chortes and fits like the
birds In the green boughs; it whispers like the leaves it
fushes red like the rose and like the pansy turns
Its modest face to the sky it clasps the green earth
bosom as though it were its very mother; it hides in the
wines and shrubs and becomes very part of it.
The heart OF the child that play is attuned to
natures symphonies
But imagine shadow thrown the picture. See
fashonably dressed in doorway and hear a
stern voice call for to fetch the child into the
house instantly.
Sc the rose glow die from the little facet The cooling
and chorng and whispering change to half suppressed
cry Discord leaps into the symphony
The child ceases to be part of nature and becomes
human-human with the humanity that mankind has
Inarred
Let the child play! Let roll the grass and even in

than is to cleanse poisoned chldhoon; easier to save

that they are not law abiding citi-
zens, and it is an insult to this
meeting to have them intrude their
dirty presence into the hail."
Cat this point the committee, of
which Frank Graves was one, clear
ed the house.)
Judge Turner-We all know how
the town was terrorized yesterday
by a lawless mob. The lives of va
rious individuals were threatened.
Apart from a bad odor that the city
has been put in by these actions, no
man who wishes to live here and
preserve his self respect can afford
to allow this to go on. What action
shall we take? I favor the appoint
ment of a strong committee to draw
up resolutions condemning the ac-
ton of the past and defining just
what our position Is on this ques-
ton. Then let us have a further
committee to call upon the city Of
ficials and press upon them the ne
vent such things. Let the authori-
ties stop them Immediately, by drag
ging from the rostrum every man
who gives utterance to the words
we have heard. They would have
done that in New York or Chicago
long before now. We should insist
that the police force be SO organized
as to dispense all mobs. We should
be ready to band together with our
lives, our time and our money to
back up the civil authorities in such
action as they may seee fit to take"
From the report In the Review of
another meeting-an 'incendiarist"
one-these are taken:
III. c. Thompson - Denounced
Judge Turner and said: THAT the
whole thing was a scheme concocted
to further his election to the United
States senate" ice
"W. A. Helm-Protested that I'm
til recently he had thought mare of
Judge Turner than Of any other ma n,
but, Boys, he is an office seeker, and
1 want you to remember him when
he comes up for office next timef {"
Memory Of the occurrences of that
afternoon is still 1ivid in the mind
of John P. Coffeen. Mr. CoffeeH says
that the picture of H. c. Thompson
standing before Turner Indignantly
denying any incendiarism has never
/ been obliterated. Thompson was the
personification of Indignation. He
spoke to Turner of having barred his
breast for this country for four
years Of the civil war and of having
received bullets in his body in de-
Tense Of society-a record which is
far from that any incendiarist could
have. This episode is not mentioned
in either the Review or the Chron-
iele, but Mr.. Coffeen vouches for 1t.

not appear upon the meager records
now obtainable of that memorable
meeting. At any rate, he was prom
inent all through the proceedings.
From the Chronicle of that date it
is learned that Mr.. Turner called
the meeting to order. Robert Eas-
son, now deceased, was made chair
man and Turner at once assumed
the role of floor manager. According
to the Chronicle, Mr.. Turner address,
ed the chair thus:
II see here some of the incen-
diaries Of yesterday. We can not
work to advantage if they are pres
ent. l move that all persons not in
sympathy with the meeting be re-
quested to retire from the hall"

banking interests acted In the dele
CATION were John H. Roche. now a
lawyer, but then a barber; Louis

Thompson, carpenter and Knight of
Labor; E. j. Tamblin, still car
penter and woodworker Of this city;
John p. Coffeen, a knight of Labor
and now superior court bailiff; w.
II. Davidson, Knight of Labor.
Scarcely had the motion been made
by Turner when H. c. Thompson, so
| runs the Chronicles account, arose
and said: Mr.. Chair"
The speaker was here interrupted.
| SO the Chronicle report states, by
| Mr.. Turner, who said:
That's one Of them. That's one
| of the incendiaries."
Mr.. Thompson, so those present
say, protested: II am a law abiding
citizen"
In the face of that declaration,
Mr.. Turner moved that a commit
tee of five be appointed to see that
such persons do retire from the room
| and 1 want to be chairman of that
committee" The motion was carried
The lateness of the hour made it

be made before the afternoon paper
went to press. Further information
is found in the report in the Spokane
Review Of the following morning,
from which the following excerpts
are taken:

Judge Turner-That man was one
of the chief incendiaries, and If he
had any sense of decency he would
get out of that door without more

This charge against the banking

of the leaders of the working classes,

by allowing the banks to hold the

Senator George Turner, now a cam

part he played in a certain demon

'Bread Riot Day" when he told the
representatives OF organized labor
on the floor of public meeting, that
their presence was an insult to the
meeting. and asked that he be named
on committee Of five sergeants-at-

POLITICAL BRIEFS

"Age does not stale" in the least

innate of the value Of editorial utter
ances published in the country press
Of several months ago. To The Re-
view they are just as good now as
they were when written just after
the Tacoma convention bute before
the hand of Turner was seen to be
supreme in the democracy. 1t is a
way that paper has of palming of
ancient history and implying it to be
fresh. BY the way, the Review has
not dug out that editorial of a few
years ago when 1t rallied at H. d.

esting than some of the editorials of
the country press Of a few months
ago.
